Stolze, Sara C. published the artcileAhp Cyclodepsipeptides: The Impact of the Ahp Residue on the “Canonical Inhibition” of S1 Serine Proteases, Formula: C25H23NO4, the publication is ChemBioChem (2013), 14(11), 1301-1308, database is CAplus and MEDLINE.

S1 serine proteases are by far the largest and most diverse family of proteases encoded in the human genome. Although recent decades have seen an enormous increase in our knowledge, the biol. functions of most of these proteases remain to be elucidated. Chem. inhibitors have proven to be versatile tools for studying the functions of proteases, but this approach is hampered by the limited availability of inhibitor scaffold structures with the potential to allow rapid discovery of selective, noncovalent small-mol. protease inhibitors. The natural product class of Ahp cyclodepsipeptides is an unusual class of small-mol. canonical inhibitors; the incorporation of protease cleavage sequences into their mol. scaffolds enables the design of specific small-mol. inhibitors that simultaneously target the S and S’ subsites of the protease through noncovalent mechanisms. Their synthesis is tedious, however, so in this study we have investigated the relevance of the Ahp moiety for achieving potent inhibition. We found that although the Ahp residue plays an important role in inhibition potency, appropriate replacement with β-hydroxy amino acids results in structurally less complex derivatives that inhibit serine proteases in the low micromolar range.

Marrot, Laetitia published the artcileCharacterization of the compounds released in the gaseous waste stream during the slow pyrolysis of hemp (Cannabis sativa L.), Recommanded Product: 1,2-Dimethoxybenzene, the publication is Molecules (2022), 27(9), 2794, database is CAplus and MEDLINE.

This study aims to characterize and valorize hemp residual biomass by a slow pyrolysis process. The volatile byproducts of hemp carbonization were characterized by several methods (TGA, UV-VIS, TLC, Flash Prep-LC, UHPLC, QTOF-MS) to understand the pyrolysis reaction mechanisms and to identify the chem. products produced during the process. The obtained carbon yield was 29%, generating a gaseous stream composed of phenols and furans which was collected in four temperature ranges (F1 at 20-150°C, F2 at 150-250°C, F3 at 250-400°C and F4 at 400-1000°C). The obtained liquid fractions were separated into subfractions by flash chromatog. The total phenolic content (TPC) varied depending on the fraction but did not correlate with an increase in temperature or with a decrease in pH value. Compounds present in fractions F1, F3 and F4, being mainly phenolic mols. such as guaiacyl or syringyl derivatives issued from the lignin degradation, exhibit antioxidant capacity. The temperature of the pyrolysis process was pos. correlated with detectable phenolic content, which can be explained by the decomposition order of the hemp chem. constituents. A detailed understanding of the chem. composition of pyrolysis products of hemp residuals allows for an assessment of their potential valorization routes and the future economic potential of underutilized biomass.

Hu, Pu published the artcileCapturing the differences between lithiation and sodiation of nanostructured TiS2 electrodes, Application In Synthesis of 143-24-8, the main research area is titanium disulfide nanoparticle electrode lithiation sodiation.

In this study TiS2 is chosen as a model electrode material to investigate the relationship between the electrochem. and mech. performance of layered cathodes for Na-ion batteries. Employing NaFP6 in EC/DMC as the electrolyte allowed for the most promising electrochem. properties recorded in the literature, namely a reversible capacity of 203 mAh g-1 at 0.2 C and 88 mAh g-1 at 10 C with a capacity retention of 92% over 50 cycles. Despite this promising performance the capacity still decayed during long term cycling. In-situ x-ray diffraction and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy imaging revealed that TiS2 underwent a large expansion of 17.7% along the c direction and irreversible phase transformations took place during the sodiation/de-sodiation process, which lead to severe mech. strains and intragranular cracks. In comparison, the mech. stability of TiS2 in Li-ion cells was significantly higher. The exptl. results are interpreted within a continuum mechanics model which revealed that the maximum effective von Mises stress that is present at the interface between the ion-intercalated TiS2 and pristine TiS2 is about four times higher during sodiation than lithiation indicating that the electrode is more susceptible to failure/fracture during sodiation.

Shigenobu, Keisuke published the artcileSolvent effects on Li ion transference number and dynamic ion correlations in glyme- and sulfolane-based molten Li salt solvates, Recommanded Product: 2,5,8,11,14-Pentaoxapentadecane, the main research area is solvent effect lithium transference number glyme sulfolane solvate.

The Li+ transference number of electrolytes is one of the key factors contributing to the enhancement in the charge-discharge performance of Li secondary batteries. However, a design principle to achieve a high Li+ transference number has not been established for liquid electrolytes. To understand the factors governing the Li+ transference number tLi, we investigated the influence of the ion-solvent interactions, Li ion coordination, and correlations of ion motions on the Li+ transference number in glyme (Gn, n = 1-4)- and sulfolane (SL)-based molten Li salt solvate electrolytes with lithium bis(trifluoromethansulfonyl)amide (LiTFSA). For the 1 : 1 tetraglyme-LiTFSA molten complex, [Li(G4)][TFSA], the Li+ transference number estimated using the potentiostatic polarisation method (tPPLi = 0.028) was considerably lower than that estimated using the self-diffusion coefficient data with pulsed filed gradient (PFG)-NMR (tNMRLi = 0.52). The dynamic ion correlations (i.e., cation-cation, anion-anion, and cation-anion cross-correlations) were determined from the exptl. data on the basis of Roling and Bedrov′s concentrated solution theory, and the results suggest that the strongly neg. cross-correlations of the ion motions (especially for cation-cation motions) are responsible for the extremely low tPPLi of [Li(G4)][TFSA]. In contrast, tPPLi is larger than tNMRLi in the SL-based electrolytes. The high tPPLi of the SL-based electrolytes was ascribed to the substantially weaker anti-correlations of cation-cation and cation-anion motions. Whereas the translational motions of the long-lived [Li(glyme)]+ and [TFSA]- dominate the ionic conduction for [Li(G4)][TFSA], Li ion hopping/exchange conduction was reported to be prevalent in the SL-based electrolytes. The unique Li ion conduction mechanism is considered to contribute to the less correlated cation-cation and cation-anion motions in SL-based electrolytes.

Richter, Raphael published the artcileInsights into Self-Discharge of Lithium- and Magnesium-Sulfur Batteries, Formula: C10H22O5, the main research area is lithium magnesium sulfur battery diffusion.

Magnesium-sulfur (Mg-S) batteries represent a very promising emerging cell chem. However, developments in Mg-S batteries are in an early stage, and the system exhibits problems similar to those of early lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries. The significant challenges are the low Coulombic efficiency and short cycle life of Mg-S batteries, mainly associated with the well-known polysulfide shuttle. An obvious result of this phenomenon is the rapid self-discharge of Mg-S batteries. In this article, we present a multiscale simulation framework for metal-sulfur batteries. In our approach, we provide a continuum description of chem. and electrochem. processes at the pos. and neg. electrodes. In combination with a one-dimensional (1D) model for the transport of dissolved species in the electrolyte, this approach allows us to reproduce and interpret exptl. data measured on Li-S and Mg-S batteries. We focus on the common properties of Li-S and Mg-S batteries as well as on the key differences causing the much more rapid self-discharge of the Mg system. We identify side reactions on the anode surface as a limiting process, while other factors, such as the mobility of dissolved species and solid-phase kinetics, play a minor role.

Pipertzis, Achilleas published the artcileIonic Conductivity in Polyfluorene-Based Diblock Copolymers Comprising Nanodomains of a Polymerized Ionic Liquid and a Solid Polymer Electrolyte Doped with LiTFSI, COA of Formula: C9H20O5, the main research area is ionic conductivity polyfluorene diblock copolymer polymer electrolyte doped LiTFSI.

Diblock copolymer electrolytes based on a π-conjugated polyfluorene (PF) backbone were synthesized comprising nanodomains of a polymerized ionic liquid (PIL) and of a solid polymer electrolyte (SPE). The former consists of a single-ion conductor based on an imidazolium alkyl chain with a [Br]- counteranion grafted on the PF backbone. The latter consists of short ethylene oxide (EO) chains, grafted on the PF backbone and further doped with LiTFSI. The two nanophases support ionic conductivity, whereas the rigid PF backbone provides the required mech. stability. In the absence of LiTFSI, ionic conductivity in the PIL nanophase is low and exhibits an Arrhenius temperature dependence. LiTFSI substitution enhances ionic conductivity by about 3 orders of magnitude and further changes to a Vogel-Fulcher-Tammann temperature dependence. However, at ambient temperature, ionic conductivity is lower than in the corresponding PEO/LiTFSI electrolytes. X-ray studies and thermal anal. revealed that the conjugated backbone imparts liquid-crystalline order that can be fine-tuned through the EO side group length. Ionic conductivity measurements performed as a function of pressure identified local jumps of [Li]+ and [Br]- ions in the resp. SPE/PIL nanophases as responsible for the ionic conductivity Between the two ions, it is [Li]+ that has the major contribution to the ionic conductivity The current results provide designing rules for new copolymers that comprise two different ionic nanodomains (PIL and SPE) and a conjugated backbone that can further support electronic conduction.

Sun, Yue published the artcileFast and Reversible Four-Electron Storage Enabled by Ethyl Viologen for Rechargeable Magnesium Batteries, Synthetic Route of 143-24-8, the main research area is four electron rechargeable magnesium battery ethyl viologen.

Magnesium (Mg) batteries are the most promising “”post-lithium-ion”” energy storage technologies owing to their high theor. energy d., low cost, and intrinsic safety with air and moisture. However, the development of Mg batteries has been limited to cathode materials leading to low power, low reversible energy d., and poor cycle life. Here, a new Mg cathode is reported based on Et viologen (EV), which not only has a fast redox couple EV2+/EV0 but also is capable of coupling with redox-active anions, such as iodide (I-), achieving a total four-electron storage. The EV2+/EV0 redox couple demonstrates a superior rate performance (10 C) and stable cycle life (500 cycles) owing to intrinsic fast electrode kinetics. A high material utilization (>80%) can be achieved at 1.0 C under a high areal loading of 5 mg cm-2. When coupling with iodide I-, a reversible four-electron storage is achieved with a high energy d. (304.2 Wh kg-1) and a stable cycle life (>100 cycles). This study provides effective strategies for designing reversible multielectron storage for high-rate and high-energy rechargeable Mg batteries.

Siedle, A. R. published the artcileCyanographite, Formula: C10H22O5, the main research area is cyanographite.

Reactions of graphite fluoride with NaCN in tetraglyme, DMF, or water lead to the formation of disordered graphitic carbon by reductive defluorination and to the oxidation of cyanide to cyanogen followed by its polymerization to paracyanogen. There is also XPS and NMR evidence for the presence of CN groups attached to the carbon in cyanographite. The product of this unselective chem. is a composite of paracyanogen and cyanographite, having a small d. of CN groups. Difficulties in the synthesis of new carbon materials from graphite fluoride are discussed.

Cao, Deqing published the artcileOxidative decomposition mechanisms of lithium carbonate on carbon substrates in lithium battery chemistries, SDS of cas: 143-24-8, the main research area is oxidative decomposition lithium carbonate carbon battery.

Lithium carbonate plays a critical role in both lithium-carbon dioxide and lithium-air batteries as the main discharge product and a product of side reactions, resp. Understanding the decomposition of lithium carbonate during electrochem. oxidation (during battery charging) is key for improving both chemistries, but the decomposition mechanisms and the role of the carbon substrate remain under debate. Here, we use an in-situ differential electrochem. mass spectrometry-gas chromatog. coupling system to quantify the gas evolution during the electrochem. oxidation of lithium carbonate on carbon substrates. Our results show that lithium carbonate decomposes to carbon dioxide and singlet oxygen mainly via an electrochem. process instead of via a chem. process in an electrolyte of lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide in tetraglyme. Singlet oxygen attacks the carbon substrate and electrolyte to form both carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide-approx. 20% of the net gas evolved originates from these side reactions. Addnl., we show that cobalt(II,III) oxide, a typical oxygen evolution catalyst, stabilizes the precursor of singlet oxygen, thus inhibiting the formation of singlet oxygen and consequent side reactions.
