The properties of the copolymers as well as the microstructure have been analyzed in detail via an in situ NMR kinetics study. The statistical copolymers exhibited molecular weights ranging from 2350 g·mol^-1 to 38000 g·mol^-1 (measured by SEC, PEG-standards) and moderate dispersities of 1.27-1.44. The thermal property tests revealed both a glass transition and melting for all copolymers, supporting a block-like nature. Applying in situ NMR kinetic measurements, the reactivity ratios of EO and ECH were determined to be strongly disparate, i.e., rEo = 9.2 and rECH = 0.10. This shows that the simple one-pot statistical anionic copolymerization of EO and ECH via the monomer-activated AROP resulted in the formation of strongly tapered, block-like structures. Furthermore, post-polymerization functionalization of the reactive chloromethyl groups by nucleophilic displacement was investigated for the copolymers. Copolymerization of EO and ECH offers a broad platform for further functionalization and therefore the possibility to prepare a variety of multifunctional PEGs.展开更多

In this paper, GO was treated under alkaline condition and the composite consisting of the modified GO and graphite was used as anode for lithium ion batteries (LIBs), resulting in an improved initial coulombic efficiency. Electrochemical tests also showed that the modified GO/graphite electrode possessed 86.0% of initial coulombic efficiency, which was 15% higher than that of pristine GO/graphite electrode. The species and the content of functional groups were investigated via XPS, FTIR characterizations in detail, which certified that the ring-opening reaction of epoxides under alkaline condition could greatly reduce the irreversible capacity of GO/graphite anode, in addition, the reversible capacity was guaranteed at the same time. This modified GO/graphite electrodes in the LIBs exhibit superior rate capability and long cycle life. The uniqueness of this electrode lied in its chemical stability, which benefits from the transition of epoxide group and unstable functional groups removal.展开更多

The synthesis of the substituted beta amino alcohols has been achieved by refluxing equimolar quantities of long chain epoxy esters (epoxy fatty esters) and 4-amino-1,2,4-triazole in dichloromethane to yield following compounds, methyl 10-(4'-amino-1',2',4'-triazole)-11-hydroxy undecanoate (V), methyl 9-(4'-amino-1', 2',4'-triazole)-10-hydroxy octadecanoate (VI), methyl 9-(4'-amino-1',2',4'-triazole)-10,12-dihydroxy octadecanoate (VII), methyl 12-(4'-amino-1',2',4'-triazole)-9,13-dihydroxy octadecanoate (VIII). Epoxides of esters of fatty acids were obtained by reaction of esters of fatty acids with mchloroperbenzoic acid. All the newly synthesized compounds were characterized by IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR and mass spectrometry.展开更多
