Abstract:
Methyl-and Ethyl-vinyl sulfoxides (MVSO and EVSO) were first synthesized from common organic reagents, i.e. sulfate, thiourea and ethylene oxide in excellent yields. A new facile method for oxidation of vinyl sulfides to corresponing vinyl sulfoxides was developed. Application of those vinyl sulfoxides for synthetic gas separation membranes was acheived and that showed the high permselectivities to SO2, N2 and SO2/N2 mixture gases.

Abstract:
Relative reactivities of polyhalofluoroalkanes toward bromophilic or chlorophilic attacks have been evaluated for the first time by comparing the rates of halophilic attacks by a carbanion derived from the addition of a nucleophile to an olefin with the rate of β-elimination of the same carbanion intermediate. Relative reactivity orders of some polybromofluoroalkanes and polychlorofluoroalkanes are CF2Br2 > CF3CFBr2~CF2BrCF2Br > CF3CBr3, and CCl4 > CF3CCl3 > CF2ClCCl3 > CFCl3 > CFCl2CFCl2~CF2ClCFCl2. Early transition states for halophilic attacks are speculated.

Abstract:
The electrocarboxylation of benzyl chloride with CO2 catalyzed by metalloporphyrins and the effects of different kinds of central metals and ligands on catalytic activities are reported. These metalloporphyrins whose central metals can form corresponding M (Ⅰ) complexes such as CoTPP, FeTPP have high activities. With water-soluble porphyrin ligands such as TPPS, TTMAPI, the corresponding metalloporphyrins have high catalytic activity. Electron-with-drawing groups on the porphyrin ring cause the lowering of activity.

Abstract:
The electronic structures of polymethineimine (PMI), polyazine (PAZ) and polyazoethene(PAE) are studied on the basis of the tight-binding LCAO-8CF-CO calculations under the CNDO/2 approximations. Our result indicates that they are all poor candidates for new electric conducting materials as alternatives to polyacetylene (PA), and this is discussed in terms of the electronic structures.
PMI end PAZ have been synthesized successfully (1,2), and some of their properties have been investigated. In this article we intend to explain why and how degree of conjugation effects on their intrinsic electric conductivities by studying their electronic structures on the basis of the tight-binding LCAO-SCF-CO calculations including all valence atomic orbitals(AO'S) with complete neglect of differential overlap(CNDO/2) approximations(3,4).

Abstract:
It is found that acetoacetanilide possesses very high promoting reactivity towards ceric ion in initiating polymerization of vinyl monomer. The kinetics of acrylamide polymerization and the activation energies were studied. The initiation mechanism of ceric/acetoacetanilide is proposed on the basis of experimental results of FT-IR and ESR.

Abstract:
Infrared spectra of bis (β-diketonato) copper (Ⅱ) complex liquid crystals with different flexible chain lengths (the carbon number=12 and 14) have been studied as a function of temperature. Conformational changes in mesogenic cores of the molecules have been characterized by using the out-of-plane bending vibration mode of aromatic C-H bonds. The result shows that for the phenylene rings and the chelate rings of the molecules there occurred an enhancement of extended conjugation of the two π-electron systems during phase transitions, which was also supported by UV measurements. It suggests that the big quasi-planar core structure in the discotic complex consisted of four phenylene rings and the central chelate rings is not maintained in every phase.

Abstract:
The effect of solvent on surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) of colloidal silver has been studied. Experiments show that the intensity of SERS is related to the polarity and molecular constitution of the solvent. The influence of solvent is due to the change of the adsorption quantity and adsorption intensity.

Abstract:
The middle peak which appeared frequently on the voltammetric curves has been interpreted as the degradation of the polymer, according to the results of anion effect. When α-CD (α-cyclodextrin) was added in the acidic solution of aniline to form aniline-α-CD complex, the middle peak became even higher during electrochemical polymorization. This suggests that the middle peak is mot originated from cross-link or ortho-polymerization in aqueous acidic solution.

Abstract:
A new kind of vanadium bronze with rich lithium (Li5V5O15) was prepared from Li2CO3 and V2O5 at 680℃ for 24 hrs. The charge and discharge curves of bronze electrode were determined in organic electrolyte. One mole of this material could be incorporated up to 4 mole lithium at 0.2mA/cm2 and 1.0V cut-off voltage, corresponding capacity about 340Ah/kg. Compared with the cell of Li/Li1+xV3O5 the cell of Li/new bronze had higher capacity, smoother discberge curve, but lower plateau voltage (about 1.8V). The cycling behaviour of this material was good. The electrode insertion reaction was controlled by the lithium diffusion process in the bronze. This new bronze could be used for low voltage rechargeable lithium battery.

Abstract:
A systematic study of the structural and superconducting behavior of the high Tc compounds YBa1Cu1.9M0.1O7-y has been performed where M=Ti, V, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Zn, Zr, Nb, Mo, In and Sn. Structural analysis shows that most replacements somewhat modify the YBa2Cu3O7-y lattice parameters in the orthorhombic structure, with the exception of Fe and Co which transit into tetragonal phase. Although the 1D Cu-O chains are destroyed, the depressed Tc remain within 73 to 76K in the case of Fe and Co. However. the substitution of Ni and Zn on the Cu2 sites appears to strongly decrease Tc whereas their structure remains orthorhombic. This indicates that the 2D Cu-O planes play a very important role in the transportation of superconducting electrons but the 1D Cu-O chains play a role not only in supplying carrier number but also in coupling the Cu-O planes.

Abstract:
A fluorescence enhancement phenomenon on adding terbium to the Eu or Sm-DBM-CTMAB-Triton X-100 fluorescence system was observed. The fluorescence intensity of this system was 50 times greater than that of the system without terbium at pH 9.0. The fluorescence intensity is a linear function of the concentration of europium or samarium in the range of 1.0×10-10-8.0×10-6 mol/L and 1.0×10-7-8.0×10-6 mol/L, respectively. The deteetion limits for them were 1.0×10-12 mol/L and 1.0×10-9 mol/L, respectively. This system was used for the determination of europium or samarium in rare earth samples with satisfactory results.

Abstract:
Fe3 (CO)12-derived Fe/r-AL2O3 and Fe/zeolite catalysts have higher catalytic activity than those derived from Fe(NO3)3. The existence of metal-metal bond in cluster species and the congruity of the adsorption of CO and H2 are important for increasing the catalytic activity. Carbon deposition for Fe5C(CO)15-derived Fe/r-AL2O3 catalyst is discussed.

Abstract:
Here some steady-state experiments on oxidation of CO on Pd were performed on a molecular beam apparatus. It is found that the characteristics of the rate of CO2 formation r versus substrate temperature T are dependent on the ratio P=PCO/PO2 in the mixed beam. These characteristics are related to the complicated interactions of co-adsorbed CO and O particles on Pd surface.
