Abstract:
In order to probe the effect of C-2 (S)-substituted groups in the antibacterial activity, a series of novel C-2 (S)-substituted pleuromutilin analogues of SB-225586 were synthesized and evaluated for their in vitro antibacterial activity. The results of antibacterial activities indicated that C-2 (S)-substituted pleuromutilin derivatives retained appreciable antibacterial activity, and the 2-fluorination compounds 6a and 6b are more potent than the corresponding 2-hydroxylation analogues 7a and 7b.

Abstract:
A novel thermoregulated phosphine ligand Ph2P(CH2CH2O)nCH3 (n=22) was synthesized and used for the Rh-catalyzed hydroformylation of mixed C11-12olefins in aqueous/organic biphasie system. Under the optimized conditions, pressure=5 Mpa (H2:CO=1:1), phosphine/Rh=13 (molar ratio), reaction time=6 h and temperature=130℃, the conversion of C11-12 olefins and the yield of aldehyde are 99% and 94%, respectively. The catalyst retained in aqueous phase can be easily separated from the product-containing organic phase by simple phase separation and the catalytic activity remains almost constant after four consecutive cycles.

Abstract:
In this article, an efficient, simple and environmentally friendly approach to the synthesis of diacetals (diketals) pentaerythritol using SO3H-functionalized ionic liquids (ILs) as catalysts was reported. The Ils show high catalytic activity and reusability with good to excellent yields of the desired products. Hammer method has been used to determine the acidity order of these ionic liquids and the results are consistent with the catalytic activities observed in acetalization reaction. Maximum product yield of 93% was observed on using [PSPy] [Otf]as catalyst and it can be reused at least 8 times without obvious activity loss.

Abstract:
Direct measurement of dipole potential in biological membranes has been impossible and 3-hydroxyflavones (3HFs) have allowed detection of changes in dipole potential in biological systems. In the present study, sixteen derivatives of 3HF with aliphatic hydrocarbon chains of different lengths at 4'-position and 6-position were synthesized. The basic fluorescence properties of 3HFs are maintained in all the probes in terms of strong blue shift in maximum fluorescence emission wavelength and > 100 fold increase in quantum yield in organic solvents and in dioleoylphosphatidylcholine (DOPC) small unilamellar vesicles (SUV) in comparison to in aqueous Hepes buffer (15 retool/L, pH 7.4). More importantly, the ability of the new compounds to report dipole potential changes in biological systems are also maintained, since all the new probes showed spectrum properties that are similar to yet different from that of F4N1, which potentially may allow more sensitive measurement of the dipole potential change in membranes.

Abstract:
A simple and efficient procedure for the synthesis of 2-arylquinazolin-4(3H)-ones has been developed through cyclocondensation of 2-aminobenzamide with aromatic aldehydes using tetrabutylammonium bromide (TBAB) as novel neutral ionic liquid catalyst in the presence of copper (Ⅱ) chloride (CuCl2) as oxidizing agent under solvent-free conditions at 100℃. In the absence of CuCl2 and under a nitrogen atmosphere, the unoxidized intermediates, 2-aryl-2,3-dihydroquinazolin-4(1H)-ones, were isolated.Treatment of these intermediates with CuCl2 in TBAB media gave the oxidized products 2-arylquinazolin-4(3H)-ones. On the other hand, cyclocondensation of 2-aminobenzamide with aromatic aldehydes in TBAB under microwave irradiation directly gave 2-arylquinazolin-4(3H)-ones.

Abstract:
Hydroxymethylation of 6,8-O-dimethyl emodin was easily achieved in good yields by the modified Marschalk reaction. The influence of the amount of solvent, base and formaldehyde toward the hydroxymethylation was discussed. The results showed that a relatively dilute reaction solution facilitated the generation of the desired 2-hydromethyl product, while the thick reaction solution benefited the generation of the methylated quinizarins.

Abstract:
Alkali-soluble associative latex thickeners modified with hydrophobic long chain alkyl groups were prepared using common acrylics and varying amount of a functional monomer, ethoxylated behenyl methacrylate (BEM), through emulsion polymerization. It was found that the size of the emulsion particle became larger with addition of BEM. The light transmittance of the thickener latex sharply increased with pH varied from 6 to 7. The associative latex thickener manifested a higher viscosity when solids in the latex thickeners were kept at 0.5 wt% or higher, and the optimal amount of BEM was found to be around 2.5 wt%, or 0.16 mol%. All thickener latexes modified with BEM have better shearing resistance than the BEM-free thickener.

Abstract:
A new polymer, polyzirconoxanesal (PZS), is synthesized from the reaction of zirconium oxychloride octahydrate (ZrOCl2·8H2O) with acetylacetone (Hacac) and salicyl alcohol (SA) by one-pot protocol. The polymer is soluble in common organic solvents, such as ethanol, methanol, acetone, tetrahydrofuran and chloroform, and exhibits rheology with viscosity of 100-300 mpa s at 25℃. These properties are suitable for uses in fabrication of ceramic matrix fiber composites. Pyrolysis of this polymer at 1300℃ in argon provides nanosized ZrC with spherical morphology and size of 20-100 nm.

The polymer is soluble in common organic solvents, such as ethanol, methanol, acetone, tetrahydrofuran and chloroform, and exhibits rheology with viscosity of 100-300 mpa s at 25℃. These properties are suitable for uses in fabrication of ceramic matrix fiber composites. Pyrolysis of this polymer at 1300℃ in argon provides nanosized ZrC with spherical morphology and size of 20-100 nm.

Abstract:
Europium (Ⅲ)-doped YF3 is prepared by a hydrothermal process at 200℃. X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern identifies the formation of YF3 phase without detectable impurity. Environment scanning electron microscopy (ESEM) image shows the even size distribution of the samples with cubic morphology. The excitation and emission spectra of the rare earth ions doped YF3 are investigated by fluorescence spectrophotometer. The excitation spectrum for 591 nm emission has several excitation bands at 320,365,386,397 and 467 nm, and the main peak value was 397 nm. Typical Eu3+ emission peaks at 591 nm (5D0→7F1) and 612 nm (5D0→7F2) are observed when excited by 397 nm, and the strongest emission is 591 nm, demonstrating that the rare earth ions occupy the centrosymmetrical sites in YF3.

Abstract:
Poly (N-viny1-2-pyrrolidone) (PVP)-stabilized ruthenium nanorods with high aspect ratio by refluxing ruthenium(Ⅲ) chloride in n-propanol have been successfully prepared by means of a facile and rapid microwave heating for the first time. The structure and morphology of the obtained products were characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), select area electron diffraction (SAED), ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometry (UV-vis), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and Fourier transform spectroscopy (FT-IR). XPS analysis reveals that the nanorods were in the metallic state. TEM images showed that ruthenium nanorods had an obvious one-dimensional structure with the aspect ratio ranged from 5 to 40 nm and length up to 600 nm. SAED patterns indicated that the nanorods were single-crystalline with a hexagonal structure.
