The selective oxidation of olefins by molecular oxygen holds great importance in the chemical industry due to its remarkable adaptability in constructing carbonyl compounds. Classical homogeneous Wacker oxidation with a complex system of PdCl-CuCl-HO is currently employed in the industrial production of acetaldehyde, which suffers from several key drawbacks. The development of alternative heterogeneous catalytic systems for Wacker-type oxidations has been hotly pursued for decades.

Here, we utilize electro-etching to construct Ni electrodes with hydrophilic and aerophobic surfaces to improve the efficiency of AWE. Ni atoms on the Ni surface can be exfoliated orderly along the crystal planes by electro-etching, forming micro-nano-scale rough surfaces with multiple crystal planes exposed.

Herein, we report the construction of uniform cobalt ions confined in faujasite zeolite, namely, Co@Y, which exhibits unprecedented catalytic performance in the aerobic epoxidation of propylene. Propylene conversion of 24.

This study aimed to investigate the effects of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) on the biomechanics of stress-fractured rabbits after healing. Twenty-Four New Zealand white rabbits were selected to establish a stress fracture model. All rabbits were randomly divided into model group and MSCs group, and another 12 rabbits were chosen as control group.

Traditional relay protection and fault diagnosis technologies have been unable to meet the requirements of the continuous development of power systems, and relay protection systems based on artificial intelligence(AI) technology have received increasing attention. Therefore, this document first analyses the weaknesses of traditional broadcast line protection and uses the adaptability and self-learning of artificial intelligence(AI); to propose the concept of protection of a relay line based on AI.

However, there is no unified conclusion as to whether asymptomatic bacteriuria causes infection around joint prostheses, and the efficacy of antibiotics is unknown.
Materials And Methods: We systematically searched PubMed, CNKI, Ovid, Cochrane Library, EMBASE, manual research, and references of relevant articles up to January 1, 2020, to identify and compare observational studies.
An unusual water-stable cationic metal-organic framework {[Cu(L)(bpe)(HO)](NO)•(HO)} (1) (HL = bis(3,5-dicarboxypyridinium)-p-xylylene) was synthesized, which was developed into an effective capture material for removal chromate from water. The results show that this material efficiently traps HCrO pollutant ions via single-crystal to single-crystal (SCSC) coordination substitution process. The HCrO uptake capacity of 1 is high to 190 mg/g.

The Fe → Fe progress of the reaction oxidation was proved by single crystal XRD, PXRD, XPS, Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy, and UV-vis. We used 1 and 2 as catalysts to catalyze the tandem Nazarov cyclization, and the results show that acylation products were only harvested when 1 was a catalyst, while the oxidized transformer 2 lead mainly to the formation of cyclization products under identical conditions.

Results demonstrated that soil water storage (SWS) of the fallow period was influenced by deep plowing time, precipitation, and rainfall distribution. With postponing the time of deep plowing in the fallow period, SWS was increased firstly, and then decreased.
