The environmental pollutant 2-nitrobenzanthrone (2-NBA) poses human health hazards, and is formed by atmospheric reactions of NOX gases with atmospheric particulates. Though its mutagenic effects have been studied in biological systems, its comprehensive spectroscopic experimental data are scarce. Thus, vibrational and optical spectroscopic analysis (UV-Vis, and fluorescence) of 2-NBA was studied using both experimental and density functional theory employing B3LYP method with 6-311+G(d,p) basis set. The scaled theoretical vibrational frequencies show good agreement to experiment to within ~5 cm(-1) and <20 cm(-1) for frequencies <1800 cm(-1) and 2700-3200 cm(-1), respectively. In addition, predictions of the DFT frequencies below 1800 cm(-1) yield an overall root mean square (RMS) of ±20.1 and ±20.6 cm(-1) for benzanthrone and 2-NBA, respectively. On the basis of normal coordinate analysis complete assignments of harmonic experimental infrared and Raman bands are made. The influence of the nitro group substitution upon the benzanthrone structure and symmetric CH vibrations, and electronic spectra is noted. This study is useful for the development of spectroscopy-mutagenicity relationships in nitrated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons.

Wearable pressure sensors capable of adhering comfortably to the skin hold great promise in sound detection. However, current intelligent speech assistants based on pressure sensors can only recognize standard languages, which hampers effective communication for non-standard language people. Here, we prepare an ultralight TiCT MXene/chitosan/polyvinylidene difluoride composite aerogel with a detection range of 6.

Reflector antenna has been widely used in deep space exploration, radar warning, and other fields, all of which requires high pointing accuracy. The antenna elevation bearings are the key component that guarantees its pointing accuracy, while any degradation or fault can seriously affect the antenna's performance, leading to deviations in antenna pointing and instability during operation. However, the relationship between the antenna elevation bearing fault and its pointing accuracy remains unclear because there is insufficient experimental faulty transmission data and pointing error collected from the test-rig simultaneously.

This research presents an innovative approach for synthesizing 2-amino-4H-chromene derivatives, utilizing 30 mg of NS-doped graphene oxide quantum dots (GOQDs) as a catalyst in a one-pot, three-component reaction conducted in ethanol. The NS-doped GOQDs were synthesized using a cost-effective bottom-up method through the condensation of citric acid (CA) with thiourea and the reaction was carried out at 185 C, resulting in the elimination of water. The catalytic performance of the synthesized NS-doped GOQDs resulted in high product yields, achieving up to 98% for the 2-amino-4H-chromene derivatives from aromatic aldehydes, malononitrile, resorcinol, -naphthol, and dimedone.

The safety and reliability of rotating machinery hinge significantly on the proper functioning of rolling bearings. In the last few years, there have been significant advances in the algorithms for intelligent fault diagnosis of bearings. However, the vibration signals collected by machines are inevitably affected by irrelevant noise because of the complex working environments of bearings.
