Electroless Deposition of III–V Semiconductor Nanostructures from Ionic Liquids at Room Temperature
Authors: Lahiri Abhishek , Borisenko Natalia , Olschewski Mark , Gustus René , Zahlbach Janine , Endres Frank 
Published: August 2015

AbstractGroup III–V semiconductor nanostructures are important materials in optoelectronic devices and are being researched in energy‐related fields. A simple approach for the synthesis of these semiconductors with well‐defined nanostructures is desired. Electroless deposition (galvanic displacement) is a fast and versatile technique for deposition of one material on another and depends on the redox potentials of the two materials. Herein we show that GaSb can be directly synthesized at room temperature by galvanic displacement of SbCl3/ionic liquid on electrodeposited Ga, on Ga nanowires, and also on commercial Ga. In situ AFM revealed the galvanic displacement process of Sb on Ga and showed that the displacement process continues even after the formation of GaSb. The bandgap of the deposited GaSb was 0.9±0.1 eV compared to its usual bandgap of 0.7 eV. By changing the cation in the ionic liquid, the redox process could be varied leading to GaSb with different optical properties.
Carbon nanohorn and graphene nanoplate based polystyrene nanocomposites for superior electromagnetic interference shielding applications

Published: August 2015

ABSTRACTIn this article is reported the preparation of carbon nanohorn (CNH)/graphene nanoplates (GNP)/polystyrene (PS) nanocomposites through in‐situ bulk polymerization of styrene monomer in the presence of CNH, followed by the addition of suspension polymerized GNP/PS bead during polymerization of styrene, as next‐generation multifunctional material for high electrical conductivity and electromagnetic interference shielding effectiveness (EMI SE) applications. Morphological analysis revealed selective dispersion of CNH in bulk polymerized PS matrix, where GNP/PS beads were randomly distributed. The formation of continuous CNH–CNH conductive path and GNP–CNH–GNP or CNH–GNP–CNH conductive network throughout the PS matrix at exceptionally low loading of CNH (1.0 wt %) and GNP (0.15 wt %) leads to high electrical conductivity (6.24 × 10−2 S cm−1) and EMI SE ∼(−24.83 dB) when the nanocomposites was prepared in the presence of 75 wt % GNP/PS bead. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Published: August 2015

AbstractDibenzocyclooctadiene lignans, the major active components of fruit of Schisandra chinensis (Turcz.) Baill., have been found to have activities that could prevent prostate and thyroid cancer, hepatotoxicity, oxidative stress‐induced cerebral injury, etc. This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of seven dibenzocyclooctadiene lignans of Schisandra chinensis and explore the possible mechanisms in the human neuroblastoma SH‐SY5Y cells exposed on serum and glucose deprivation (SGD) injury. The structure–activity relationships were also analyzed. Cell viability and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release were determined to evaluate cell injury. Inflammation and apoptosis‐related protein levels were detected to elucidate the possible mechanisms. Schisantherin A, schizandrin C, and schizandrol B were found to have stronger protective effects than schizandrin A, schizandrin B, and schisanhenol in SH‐SY5Y cells against SGD injury. Moreover, the protective effects of these lignans were possibly exhibited by regulating inflammation and apoptosis‐related proteins in SH‐SY5Y cells after SGD injury, supporting their beneficial effects for the prevention of cell injury in the pathogenesis of the central nervous system diseases, including ischemia stroke. The number and position of hydroxyl group and methylenedioxy in these lignans may be required for their effects.

Highly‐Dispersed Ni‐QDs/Mesoporous Carbon Nanoplates: A Universal and Commercially Applicable Approach Based on Corn Straw Piths and High Capacitive Performances
Authors: Su Liwei , Hei Jinpei , Wu Xianbin , Wang Lianbang , Wang Yuanhao 
Published: August 2015

AbstractMetal and metal oxides are extremely competitive in various applications such as catalysis and energy storage, while the intrinsically unsatisfactory ion/electron conductivity and/or large volume swing severely inhibit their inherent potentials. Quantum dots (QDs) can significantly promote the conductivity, buffer volume variation, and introduce novel physical/chemical properties, especially in cooperation with mesoporous carbon (MC), and hence are attracting ever‐increasing attention. However, it is still a worldwide challenge to exploit a facile, efficient, environmentally benign, commercially applicable, and, in particular, universal method for varied QDs/MC hybrids. In this work, a powerful approach is proposed on basis of corn straw piths, and a synthetic mechanism is proposed and investigated systematically. According to this route, Ni, Co, Cu, and MnO QDs/MC nanoplates are successfully fabricated. As a typical example, ultrasmall Ni QDs (5–7 nm) are homogeneously distributed on the large surface of MC nanoplates and exhibit a reversible capacitance of 2420 F g−1 at 500 mA g−1 and rate performance. This work discloses a new and paramount path to exploit versatile QDs/MC hybrids for promising applications such as lithium ion batteries, solar cells, Li–air batteries, and other promising fields with electrochemical catalysts.
Insights into the Gold‐Catalyzed Propargyl Ester Rearrangement/Tandem Cyclization Sequence: Radical versus Gold Catalysis—Myers–Saito‐ versus Schmittel‐Type Cyclization

Published: August 2015

AbstractA detailed study of the gold‐catalyzed tandem 1,3‐carboxy migration/allene–enyne cycloisomerization was undertaken. It was found that after the initial allene formation the selectivity of the reaction is strongly influenced by the polarization of the remaining alkyne. Depending on the substitution pattern of the starting diynes, either a Schmittel‐ or a Myers–Saito‐type cyclization was triggered. The 6‐endo‐dig Myers–Saito‐type cyclization gave access to benzo[b]fluorenes, while the Schmittel pathway (5‐exo‐dig) delivered benzofulvenes as final products. In special cases a yet unknown pathway was opened by the ambiphilic nature of the allene moiety. In these cases completely different products were obtained by the nucleophilic attack of the alkyne moiety onto the allene that can also act as an electrophile. Mechanistic studies revealed that diradical pathways can be ruled out for this type of tandem cyclization reactions and it is shown that both steps of the reaction cascade are catalyzed by the gold complex.
