The development of efficient strategies for the preparation of these analogues is still attractive but challenging in organophosphorus chemistry. In order to fill this gap, different new routes have been discovered including direct phosphonylation of alkyl radicals, indirect Arbuzov phosphonylation of alkyl radicals and nucleopilic phosphonylation of phosphorus. In this short review, we have attempted to summarize these recent developments for the synthesis of alkyl phosphonates in order to facilitate the development of green pharmacological alkyl phosphonates by emphasizing their variety of products, specificity and relevance, and providing the underlying mechanistic rationale whenever it is possible. We aim to provide readers with a comprehensive understanding of the current state of this field and contribute to future research.展开更多

The flotation experiment results showed that scheelite and calcite could be efficiently separated under the following conditions: pulp p H=9.5, Na OL concentration of 1.5×10-4mol/L, EDTMPS concentration of 3.0×10-5mol/L, a scheelite concentrate with WO3grade of 65.49%, recovery of 83.29%and separation efficiency of 65.29% could be obtained from the artificially mixed minerals. The analysis results of mineral surface properties demonstrated that EDTMPS was strongly adsorbed onto the calcite surface through the reaction between the phosphonate group and the calcium ions, which hindered Na OL adsorption and increased the hydrophilicity of calcite. However, EDTMPS had weak adsorption strength on the scheelite surface, which didn’t affect further adsorption of Na OL, hence, the scheelite remained hydrophobic. Consequently, the selective adsorption of EDTMPS on the two minerals’ surfaces increased a difference in wettability and thus enabling them to be separated by flotation. Finally, the mechanism model of this flotation separation process was established.展开更多

The flotation results demonstrated that HEPA exhibited superior collecting performance compared with styrene phosphonic acid(SPA). The cassiterite recovery maintained above 90% over a wide pH range of 2-9 with 50 mg/L HEPA. The results of zeta potential measurement and FTIR detection indicated that the adsorption of HEPA onto cassiterite was mainly attributed to the chemisorption between HEPA monoanions and Sn species on mineral surfaces. The DFT calculation results demonstrated that HEPA monoanions owned higher HOMO energy and exhibited a better affinity to cassiterite than SPA, which provided very clear evidence for the stronger collecting power of HEPA presented in floatation test and zeta potential measurement.展开更多

The flotation tests indicated that rutile fines could be flocculated by SPA, and pH, shear force(stirring speed) and stirring time played significant roles in flocculation. The isoelectric point(IEP) and zeta-potential in whole range all moved to negative values as SPA was added according to the results from zeta-potential measurement. It was demonstrated that the primary reason for above was chemical adsorption. The laser-based particle size results showed the particle size at a stirring speed of 1800 r/min and 1000 mg/L SPA was the largest in all experiments. Furthermore, using the optical microscope observation and flotation tests, it was important for flotation of rutile fines to produce the flocculant. In the light of above-mentioned facts, floc flotation of rutile fines could be induced in the form of chemical adsorption by SPA to increase particle size. The data calculated from DLVO theory also indicated that chemical adsorption was the main reason for the formation of flocculant.展开更多

Here, we prepared cobalt phosphonate-derived N-doped cobalt phosphate/carbon nanotube hybrids(Co Pi C-N/CNTs) by hydrothermal treatment of N-containing cobalt phosphonate and oxidized carbon nanotubes(o-CNT) followed by high-temperature calcination under nitrogen atmosphere. The resultant Co Pi C-N/CNT exhibits a superior electrocatalytic performance for the ORR in alkaline media, which is equal to the commercial Pt/C catalyst in the aspect of half-wave potential, onset potential and diffuse limiting current density. Furthermore, the excellent tolerance to methanol and strong durability outperform those of commercial Pt/C. It is found that cobalt phosphonate-derived N-doped cobalt phosphate and the in-situ formed graphitic carbons play key roles on the activity enhancement. Besides, introducing a suitable amount of CNTs enhances the electronic conductivity and further contributes to the improved ORR performance.展开更多

Microflotation tests showed that SPE exhibited a stronger collecting ability for ilmenite than the traditional collector styrene phosphonic acid(SPA). Zeta potential measurements revealed that both SPE and SPA could negatively shift the zeta potential of ilmenite, while SPE had more effects than SPA, suggesting the stronger adsorption of SPE. The analysis of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy confirmed the chemisorption of SPA and SPE onto the Fe/Ti sites of ilmenite. According to frontier orbital theory, the chemical activities of SPE are greater than those of SPA. The partial densities of states analysis indicated that the PO—H groups of the collectors could interact with the Ti/Fe atoms of the ilmenite surface to generate a stable four-membered ring. The bonding model of the collector and(104) ilmenite surface showed that the adsorption energy of SPE was higher than that of SPA. Overall, SPE presented a better collecting ability and interaction effect for ilmenite flotation than SPA, and had the potential to replace SPA in the industry.展开更多

The formation process and the anti-corrosion performance of the conversion coating were investigated using electrochemical test and salt spray test (SST), respectively. The electrochemical test shows that the Zr/Ti and ATMP coating improves the corrosion resistance of AA6061 as good as the chromate (VI) coating. But the results of SST show that the corrosion resistance of Zr/Ti and ATMP coating is not as good as the chromate (VI) coating. The corrosion area is less than 2% after 72 h.展开更多

The physicochernical properties of NMPCS and the interactions between NMPCS and plasmid DNA were investigated by FTIR, ^13C NMR, X-ray, agarose gel electrophoresis retardation assay, atomic force microscopy (AFM) and circular dichroism (CD). The results suggest that at charge ratio 2:1 or above, DNA could be completely entrapped and spherical complexes with mean size of 80-210 nm were formed. Taking HeLa as host cell, luciferase expression mediated by NMPCS improved about 100 times compared to the expression mediated by chitosan.展开更多

The resultant Co Pi C-N/CNT exhibits a superior electrocatalytic performance for the ORR in alkaline media, which is equal to the commercial Pt/C catalyst in the aspect of half-wave potential, onset potential and diffuse limiting current density. Furthermore, the excellent tolerance to methanol and strong durability outperform those of commercial Pt/C. It is found that cobalt phosphonate-derived N-doped cobalt phosphate and the in-situ formed graphitic carbons play key roles on the activity enhancement. Besides, introducing a suitable amount of CNTs enhances the electronic conductivity and further contributes to the improved ORR performance.

摘要A styryl phosphonate ester(SPE) collector was used to improve the flotation performance of ilmenite, and the adsorption mechanism and model were revealed and established, respectively. Microflotation tests showed that SPE exhibited a stronger collecting ability for ilmenite than the traditional collector styrene phosphonic acid(SPA). Zeta potential measurements revealed that both SPE and SPA could negatively shift the zeta potential of ilmenite, while SPE had more effects than SPA, suggesting the stronger adsorption of SPE. The analysis of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy confirmed the chemisorption of SPA and SPE onto the Fe/Ti sites of ilmenite. According to frontier orbital theory, the chemical activities of SPE are greater than those of SPA. The partial densities of states analysis indicated that the PO—H groups of the collectors could interact with the Ti/Fe atoms of the ilmenite surface to generate a stable four-membered ring. The bonding model of the collector and(104) ilmenite surface showed that the adsorption energy of SPE was higher than that of SPA. Overall, SPE presented a better collecting ability and interaction effect for ilmenite flotation than SPA, and had the potential to replace SPA in the industry.

摘要How to optimize and regulate the distribution of phosphoric acid in matrix,and pursuing the improved electrochemical performance and service lifetime of high temperature proton exchange membrane(HT-PEMs)fuel cell are significant challenges.Herein,bifunctional poly(p-terphenyl-co-isatin piperidinium)copolymer with tethered phosphonic acid(t-PA)and intrinsic tertiary amine base groups are firstly prepared and investigated as HT-PEMs.The distinctive architecture of the copolymer provides a well-designed platform for rapid proton transport.Protons not only transports through the hydrogen bond network formed by the adsorbed free phosphoric acid(f-PA)anchored by the tertiary amine base groups,but also rely upon the proton channel constructed by the ionic cluster formed by the t-PA aggregation.Thorough the design of the structure,the bifunctional copolymers with lower PA uptake level(<100%)display prominent proton conductivities and peak power densities(99 mS cm-1,812 mW cm-2at 160℃),along with lower PA leaching and higher voltage stability,which is a top leading result in disclosed literature.The results demonstrate that the design of intermolecular acid-base-pairs can improve the proton conductivity without sacrificing the intrinsic chemical stability or mechanical property of the thin membrane,realizing win-win demands between the mechanical robustness and electrochemical properties of HT-PEMs.

摘要The conversion coating was formed by dipping AA6061 in a fluorotitanate/zirconate acid and amino trimethylene phosphonic acid (ATMP) solution at room temperature. The formation process and the anti-corrosion performance of the conversion coating were investigated using electrochemical test and salt spray test (SST), respectively. The electrochemical test shows that the Zr/Ti and ATMP coating improves the corrosion resistance of AA6061 as good as the chromate (VI) coating. But the results of SST show that the corrosion resistance of Zr/Ti and ATMP coating is not as good as the chromate (VI) coating. The corrosion area is less than 2% after 72 h.
摘要Rational design of efficient pH-universal hydrogen evolution reaction catalysts to enable large-scale hydrogen production via electrochemical water splitting is of great significance,yet a challenging task.Herein,Ru atoms in the Ru2P structure were replaced with M=Co,Ni,or Mo to produce M2-xRuxP nanocrystals.The metals show strong site preference,with Co and Ni occupying the tetrahedral sites and Ru the square pyramidal sites of the CoRuP and NiRuP Ru2P-type structures.The presence of Co or Ni in the tetrahedral sites leads to charge redistribution for Ru and,according to density functional theory calculations,a significant increase in the Ru d-band centers.As a result,the intrinsic activity of CoRuP and NiRuP increases considerably compared to Ru2P in both acidic and alkaline media.The effect is not observed for MoRuP,in which Mo prefers to occupy the pyramidal sites.In particular,CoRuP shows state-of-the-art activity,outperforming Ru2P with Pt-like activity in 0.5 M H2SO4(η10=12.3 mV;η100=52 mV;turnover frequency(TOF)=4.7 s-1).It remains extraordinarily active in alkaline conditions(η10=12.9 mV;η100=43.5 mV)with a TOF of 4.5 s-1,which is 4x higher than that of Ru2P and 10x that of Pt/C.Further increase in the Co content does not lead to drastic loss of activity,especially in alkaline medium,where,for example,the TOF of Co1.9Ru0.1P remains comparable to that of Ru2P and higher than that of Pt/C,highlighting the viability of the adopted approach to prepare cost-efficient catalysts.

摘要A coordination polymer formulated as[Mn(5-pncH2)2H2O](1,5-pncH3=5-phosphono-1-naphthalenecarboxylic acid),was hydrothermally synthesized and magnetically characterized.Compound 1 features a three-dimensional structure in which the inorganic chains of[Mn(O-P-O)]n are cross-linked by the organic groups of phosphonate ligands.Magnetic measurements of 1 indicate that dominant antiferromagnetic interactions are mediated between the MnⅡ centers.

摘要A novel type of extraction-precipitation strategy based on phosphate was developed to recover rare earth(RE,i.e.,La,Ce,Nd,and Pr)from waste nickel-metal hydride(NiMH)batteries.This method does not require saponification and organic solvents.The novel phosphates,i.e.,dibenzyl phosphate(DBP),diphenyl phosphate(DPP),triphenyl phosphate(TPP)were studied as extraction-precipitants.DBP has high precipitation efficiencies for RE3+,which can reach 97.84%,100%,100%and 99.77%,respectively.In addition,the precipitation efficiencies of Mn2+,Co2+and Ni2+are less than 1.75%.DBP-RE has the largest particle size(D10=52.6μm,D50=135.35μm,D90=296.08μm),which is much larger than the precipitations formed by NH4HCO3,H2C2O4,CaO and MgO.The larger precipitation particle sizes contribute to improving the solid-liquid separation efficiency.With 3 mol/L hydrochloric acid,the stripping efficiency of DBP-RE reaches 98.60%,and the purity of recovered RE is 99.85%.The regenerated DBP can be directly used for the recycling extraction.Therefore,the novel extraction-precipitation strategy is a green and sustainable separation method.

摘要N-Methylene phosphonic chitosan (NMPCS), an amphiphilic macromolecule with powerful chelating ability of Ca^2+ ions, was synthesized and characterized. The physicochernical properties of NMPCS and the interactions between NMPCS and plasmid DNA were investigated by FTIR, ^13C NMR, X-ray, agarose gel electrophoresis retardation assay, atomic force microscopy (AFM) and circular dichroism (CD). The results suggest that at charge ratio 2:1 or above, DNA could be completely entrapped and spherical complexes with mean size of 80-210 nm were formed. Taking HeLa as host cell, luciferase expression mediated by NMPCS improved about 100 times compared to the expression mediated by chitosan.

摘要Osteoporosis remains incurable.The most widely used antiresorptive agents,bisphosphonates(BPs),also inhibit bone formation,while the anabolic agent,teriparatide,does not inhibit bone resorption,and thus they have limited efficacy in preventing osteoporotic fractures and cause some side effects.
