The distribution coefficients (D) of polonium between 5% TOPO in toluene and aqueous hydrochloric and nitric acids have been studied. Results show that: (1) D values are ranged from 61.3 to 331 when the acidities vary from 0.10 to 10.0 M HCl, which means that Po can be well extracted by 5% TOPO in toluene in wide range of HCl acidities, (2) in the acidities of 0.010-10.0 M HNO3 the D values are much lower, there exists a maximum D value (2.46) at 1 M HNO3, and at the acidities of 6 M HNO3 and above only a negligible amount of Po (< or = 1.5%) can be extracted by 5% TOPO in toluene. The later fact provides an opportunity to separate Po from uranium effectively in the process of liquid--liquid extraction and column extraction chromatography of TOPO.

A deep eutectic solvent (DES) composed of isostearic acid and TOPO was newly found out and investigated for selective recovery of scandium. The four elements used in this study are scandium, iron, yttrium, and aluminum. It was difficult to separate the four elements owing to the overlap of extraction behavior when isostearic acid or TOPO alone in toluene was used, respectively.

Metal halide perovskite quantum dots (QDs) have attracted significant research interest in the next-generation display and solid illumination fields due to their excellent optical properties of high photoluminescence quantum efficiency, high color purity, obvious quantum confinement effect, and large exciton binding energy. A large amount of surface defects and nonradiative recombination induced by these defects are considered as major problems to be resolved urgently for practical applications of perovskite QDs in high-efficiency light-emitting diodes (LEDs). Herein, we report an efficient passivation of green perovskite QD CHNHPbBr with trioctylphosphine oxide (TOPO).

p53 is generally known as an effective anti-cancer molecular, but it is lost or mutated in more than 50% of human tumors. It is still a controversial issue whether the activity of p53 really benefits for treating cancers, we wondered what would happen if the endogenous p53 was inhibited before treated with topotecan (TPT) on p53 positive tumor cells. In this study, pifithrin-α (PFTα), a p53 inhibitor, was used 2 h before treated with TPT on three kinds of cancer cell lines including MCF7, BGC823 and HepG2 cells.

The effects of a variety of monatomic cations (H, Li, Na, K, Mg, and Ca) and larger cations (decamethylcobaltocenium and tetrabutylammonium) on the reduction of colloidal ZnO nanocrystals (NCs) are described. Suspensions of "TOPO"-capped ZnO NCs in toluene/THF were treated with controlled amounts of one-electron reductants (CoCp* or sodium benzophenone anion radical) and cations. Equilibria were quickly established and the extent of NC reduction was quantified via observation of the characteristic near-IR absorbance of conduction band electrons.

Earth-abundant and nontoxic pyrite iron disulfide (FeS2) is very promising for photovoltaic applications but the phase purity and the morphology of iron pyrite nanocrystals (NCs) have a significant impact on the solar cell performance. In this work, we systematically investigated reaction conditions and the local chemical environment on the phase purity and morphology of iron pyrite NCs synthesized via the hot injection method. By using different solvents to dissolve iron and sulfur agents, varying reactant concentrations, and adding trioctylphosphine oxide (TOPO) or 1,2-hexadecanediol (Diol) into the reaction solution, iron pyrite short, branched and chromosome-like rods were obtained with a diameter of ~10 nm and a length of ~20-30 nm as well as quasi-cubic NC agglomerates with a size of ~200 nm.
