Green Synthesis of 2-Mercapto 5,6-Dihydro-4H-1,3-Thiazines via Sequential C–S Couplings

The six-membered N,S-heterocyclic 1,3-thiazines and their derivatives are widely acknowledged as pharmaceutical molecules with a wide range of biological activities. In this study, we developed a unique thiol-involved cascade reaction that enables the efficient construction of the 5,6-dihydro-4H-1,3-thiazine scaffold through consecutive intermolecular thiol-isothiocyanate and intramolecular thiol-halogen click reactions. Structurally diverse 2-mercapto dihydrothiazines including three antitumour candidates of bis-dihydrothiazines were readily obtained in high yields from the readily available thiols and 3-chloroisothiocyanate in the green solvent EtOH/H2O (1:1) using K2CO3 (0.6 equiv.) as the base. Between the two synthesis procedures investigated, the microwave-assisted reaction generally behaved more efficiently than that under routine heating conditions. Furthermore, DFT calculation confirmed the sequential addition–substitution mechanism. This cascade C–S coupling reaction methodology offers several advantages, including rapid completion, high reliability, easy purification, and benign conditions.

Formation of advanced glycation end products in glucose-amino acid models of Maillard reaction under dry- and wet-heating conditions.

Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) are compounds formed by non-enzymatic processes in the Maillard reaction and can cause various chronic diseases. This study explores the AGE formation process in a glucose-amino acid system under both wet- and dry-heating conditions, and analyzes the effect of cysteine in AGE formation. Under wet-heating conditions, Nε-carboxymethyllysine (CML) and Nε-carboxyethyllysine (CEL) concentrations rose for the initial 90 min and subsequently declined after 120 min; after 90 min of heating, the maximum yields in the absence of cysteine were 1151.04 ± 14.01 and 3386.90 ± 26.55 ng mL-1, respectively. The concentration of pyrraline (Pyr) increased after 30 min and then decreased after 60 min with a maximum yield of 777.68 ± 23.36 ng mL-1. However, in dry-heating models, the AGE concentrations consistently increased with increasing heating time; the maximum yields for CML, CEL and Pyr were 468.66 ± 10.96, 1993.57 ± 14.81 and 1085.74 ± 58.06 ng mL-1, respectively. The addition of cysteine showed an inhibitory effect on AGE formation, especially for Pyr in the dry-heating model, with inhibition rates ranging from 17.14% to 95.60%. Although wet-heating models produced more CML and CEL, they produced less Pyr than dry-heating models. The AGE formation in wet-heating models positively correlated with the reaction rate; however, the dry-heating reaction demonstrated a more complex relationship between reaction rate and reaction protocol. Moreover, cysteine exhibited a significant inhibitory effect on AGE production, and the degree of inhibition was proportional to the cysteine concentration. This study provides important insights into the mechanisms for AGE formation under various heating conditions, such as those representing baking (dry-heating) and steaming conditions (wet-heating). © 2024 Society of Chemical Industry.

One‐Pot Synthesis of Semi‐Saturated Fused Polycyclic Iminosugars by a Diels‐Alder Reaction

AbstractA series of semi‐saturated fused polycyclic iminosugars were synthesized by one‐pot stereoselective three‐component reactions of D‐ribose tosylate, aniline and cycloenones under heating conditions. The N‐aryl enamine derived from an iminium ion is the key intermediate for the reaction. In this way, various novel complex fused iminosugars were obtained through a normal Diels‐Alder mechanism at 80 °C. This strategy will enable the preparation of bioactive iminosugar analogues with structural diversity.

Zoysia spp. putting green tolerance to postemergence herbicides

AbstractSpecies of Zoysia Willd. are used on approximately 9550 ha of golf course surfaces throughout the United States, primarily fairways and tees in transitional climates. Recently, cultivars featuring dwarf canopy height and improved quality have been released for putting green use; however, tolerance of these cultivars to postemergence herbicides is unknown. Field research was conducted in 2021 and 2022 evaluating the tolerance of Prizm® [Zoysia matrella (L.) Merr.] and Lazer® [Z. matrella (L.) Merr. × Zoysia minima (Colenso) Zotov] zoysiagrass to pyrimisulfan + penoxsulam (Aethon™), pyrimisulfan (Arkon™), flazasulfuron (Katana®), 2,4‐D + quinclorac + dicamba + sulfentrazone (Q4® Plus), 2,4‐D + MCPP + dicamba + carfentrazone (SpeedZone® EW), 2,4‐D + MCPP + dicamba + sulfentrazone (Surge®), and pyrimisulfan (formulated as a granule; Vexis®). A nontreated check was included for comparison. All of these herbicides have commercial labeling for use on zoysiagrass (Zoysia Willd.); however, none of these herbicides have labeling for use on zoysiagrass putting greens. Application rates in this study exceeded label maximums (for use on zoysiagrass) to ascertain the upper limits of Prizm® and Lazer® tolerance to these herbicides in Knoxville, TN and College Station, TX, respectively. Plots were arranged in randomized complete block design with four replications at both sites. Turfgrass injury was visually evaluated with data subjected to analysis of variance. Prizm® in Tennessee exhibited commercially acceptable tolerance to the applied herbicides, resulting in ≤8% injury either year. Lazer® in Texas sustained injury ranging from 21% to 61% and 10% to 31% in 2021 and 2022, respectively. Conditions of extreme heat and drought in Texas may have exacerbated differences in Lazer® tolerance to applied herbicides between years. Additional research across varying geographies and environmental conditions is needed to better understand tolerance of new zoysiagrass putting green lines, particularly within Z. minima.

Thermal-Induced Alterations in Phenolic and Volatile Profiles of Monovarietal Extra Virgin Olive Oils

In the present study, the influence of heating on the evolution of oxidative indices, antioxidant activity, phenolic and volatile compounds in monovarietal extra virgin olive oils (EVOOs) obtained from Leccino, Istarska bjelica, and Buža cultivars was investigated. The samples were submitted to heating in an air oven (180 °C and 220 °C), simulating usual roasting conditions typical for Mediterranean cuisine. The decreases in the oxidative indicators, phenolic and volatile compounds were more pronounced at higher heating temperatures, underlining the temperature dependency of the oxidative degradation during heating conditions. Despite this, it must be emphasized that a significant amount of phenolic compounds and antioxidative activity remained preserved after the heating treatment. Each oil cultivar showed some specificity during the course of the thermal degradation. Hydroxytyrosol acetate among phenolic compounds and octanal, (E)-2-octenal, hexanal, 3-pentanone, and 1-penten-3-one among the volatiles were underlined as possible markers of thermal oxidation. Principal component analysis revealed that the content of volatile compounds in monovarietal EVOO samples distinguished samples primarily by the heating temperature, while the changes in the phenolic compounds were cultivar-dependent aside from being influenced by the temperature of heating.

Glycation of sunnhemp protein with dextran via dry heating: Thermal, micro-structural characterization, and amino acid profiling.

This study aims to obtain sunnhemp protein isolate (SHPI) and dextran conjugates by dry heating method of Maillard conjugation. The effects of different incubation time (0, 1, 3, 5, 7, and 9 days) on the molecular flexibility, available lysine content, antioxidant properties, molecular structure, and thermal and micro-structural properties of conjugates were compared with SHPI (no conjugation) at 60°C and 79% relative humidity. The results indicated the formation of SHPI-dextran conjugates as confirmed by the change in molecular flexibility, lysine content, antioxidant activities, color, and water activity values. The molecular structure revealed the confirmation of covalent bonding between SHPI and dextran. Differential scanning calorimetry and thermo-gravimetric analysis results exhibited improvement in the thermal stability of SHPI when conjugated with dextran. The microstructural characterization showed that Maillard conjugation changed the surface structure of SHPI. The analysis of amino acid composition displayed that lysine, arginine, and phenylalanine were the dominant Maillard reaction sites of SHPI and dextran. Among all the conjugated samples, 5 days of incubation time was selected as an optimum condition for the development of SHPI-dextran conjugates on the basis of the aforementioned characterization. Overall, it was concluded that Maillard conjugation of sunnhemp protein with dextran via dry-heating technique could modify and improve its various attributes. PRACTICAL APPLICATION: The conjugation of plant proteins with polysaccharide through the Maillard reaction under dry heating conditions represents a natural and green technique for improving the techno-functional properties of proteins. The study has the potential to establish framework for the utilization of Sunnhemp protein isolate-dextran conjugates. This approach offers the potential for cost-effective production of emulsifiers and development of effective encapsulating matrices. The investigation expands on an underutilized plant protein source facilitating an alternative to animal-based proteins and contributing to the development of a sustainable circular bioeconomy.

Numerical study on fluid flow and heat transfer characteristics of supercritical CO2 in horizontal tube under various non-uniform heating conditions

Supercritical CO2 (sCO2) is deemed the potential working medium for thermodynamic cycles in the next generation of power machinery. In this paper, the flow and heat transfer characteristics of highly buoyant turbulent sCO2 in horizontal tubes are numerical studied under the non-uniform heating conditions. The tube with a typical internal diameter of 10 mm is selected with mass flux equaling to 300 kg/(m2·s), effective heat fluxes ranging from 20 to 60 kW/m2, and pressure equaling to 8 MPa. The results confirmed that the heat transfer of sCO2 inside the horizontal tube in the circumferential or axial non-uniform heating conditions is greatly deteriorated by 13 %-68 % compared to the uniform heating. The overall heat transfer performance of semi-circumferential axial non-uniform heating is about 2.5 % higher than that of bottom semi-circumferential uniform heating, while the axial temperature difference of the bottom surface exceeds 150 K. Screening three representative heating positions, the bottom heating has the best temperature uniformity. The corresponding turbulent streamlines featured by unique helical structures can substantially improve the circumferential and radial heat transfer over 10 %, enhancing the heat transfer performance of the smooth tube close to that of rifled tubes. Based on the numerical data, viable correlations were developed for calculating the axial local Nusselt number of forced convection heat transfer of sCO2 in horizontal tubes considering the effects of cross-sectional vorticity, secondary flow intensity, and buoyancy-natural convection, and the prediction values are in good agreement with experimental data.

The gradient program includes (%B/Time [min]: 36/0, 36/10, 38/15, 85/55, 85/65, 36/67, and 36/75). The flow rate is 0.8mL/min. The overall run duration is 75.0min, the injection volume is 10.0μL, and the detection is at 210 nm in UV. The samples were subjected to hydrolysis, oxidation, and heat conditions in order to facilitate their forced degradation. The procedure was validated and determined with the standards of ICH guidelines. From the LOQ to a concentration level of 200%, the linearity of the technique was ascertained. An accuracy range of LOQ to 150% was established for the method, and the average recovery was acceptable. Design of experiments, part of the quality by design idea, was used to prove the method's reliability.

Radio-transparent celsian ceramics modified with glass in a pseudoternary system BaO–Al2O3–SiO2: synthesis, microstructure, thermal and physical properties

The article presents the results of the study of radio-transparent celsian ceramics, in which part of the components were introduced using eutectic glass of the pseudoternary BaO–Al2O3–SiO2 system. The bonding of the components of the experimental glass into the celsian phase was realized according to the principle of reactive structure formation by adding the missing components (crystalline fillers). In this case, the obtained dense sintered water-resistant ceramic, the only crystalline phase in the composition of which is the monoclinic form of celsian, which forms a microhomogeneous structural matrix of the material. Celsian is represented by distinct prismatic crystals of tetragonal and hexagonal shape. The size of celsian crystals increases from 3–5 m to 7–10 m with increasing the content of eutectic glass. The developed celsian ceramic has a set of enhanced physical and thermal properties: zero water absorption and open porosity, mechanical compressive strength (up to 157 MPa), refractory index is 1540–15800C. Celsian ceramic is characterized by a coefficient of linear thermal expansion of 3410–7 0C–1, which provides a sufficiently high thermal shock resistance of 7000C. In terms of the level of relative dielectric permittivity (5.5) and dielectric losses (0.0005) at a frequency of 1010 Hz, the developed ceramic meets the requirements for ultra-high-frequency radio-transparent materials for aviation and rocket technology, which operate under conditions of high-speed high-temperature heating.

The effects of ventilation layout on cough droplet dynamics relating to seasonal influenza

The primary aim of this paper is to investigate airborne virus transmission in a typical meeting room relating to the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (A.C.) systems. While the installation of 4-way cassette A.C. systems in offices and meeting rooms has become increasingly common, their efficiency in mitigating short-range airborne virus spread remains poorly understood. Addressing this gap is critical in the post-pandemic era, where understanding the limitations of various ventilation systems is paramount for public health. We systematically compare the performance of the 4-way cassette A.C., various configurations of mixing and displacement ventilation systems, and natural ventilation in controlling the spread of respiratory viruses. Our research uniquely integrates evaporation models to accurately simulate cough clouds' multiphase behavior under both quiescent and thermally influenced conditions. The study benchmarks these systems against two widely recognized ventilation standards (i.e., 5 air changes per hour and 10 l/s per person), offering evidence-based insights applicable across diverse indoor settings. Our findings reveal significant thermal effects in the quiescent case, resulting in 32.3%, 54.3%, and 8.0% changes in the axial, vertical, and lateral spread of the virus-laden droplets, respectively. Notably, the 0.5 m/s 4-way cassette A.C. system demonstrated superior performance, reducing the axial spread by 29.6% compared to other mechanical ventilation configurations. Furthermore, the role of exhaust outlets or doors was found to be critical in shaping the spread pattern in natural ventilation scenarios. This work can offer practical guidance to office workers, engineers, and public health officials on enhancing indoor airborne infection control.

A Comprehensive Analysis of Santiago's Air Quality Forecasts Using SARIMA Model

Abstract. This study analyses Santiagos air quality by forecasting key pollutant concentrations- PM2.5, PM10, NO, and O-over June 2024 to May 2025 using the Seasonal Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (SARIMA) model. Historical data from 2016 to 2024 shows seasonal peaks, particularly in winter, driven by residential heating and atmospheric conditions. A notable decrease in annual peak NO level, from 71 g/m in 2019 to 23 g/m in 2020, likely due to the COVID-19 pandemic and air quality initiatives. The SARIMA forecasts indicate that PM2.5 levels could reach up to 80 g/m, NO around 28 g/m, O around 47ppb and PM10 around 45g/m during peak periods, highlighting ongoing seasonal pollution challenges. To address these, policymakers should enforce stricter emissions regulations, promote cleaner heating, expand public transportation, and improve air quality monitoring. Additional strategies like traffic management, urban greening, and preparedness for high-pollution days are also recommended. This study demonstrates the SARIMA models effectiveness in forecasting air quality trends, offering valuable insights for policy development to protect public health in Santiago.

Exploring an indirect quantification strategy for PFOA in rat tissues via efficient degradation and fluorescence spectroscopy

Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) has aroused global attention due to its persistence, biotoxicity and bioaccumulative properties. Monitoring PFOA levels in biological samples could give significant insights into its toxicity mechanism and health risk evaluation. Herein, to explore the distribution of PFOA in biological tissues, an indirect quantitation strategy for PFOA in biological samples was proposed based on fluorescence spectroscopy. F- ion was produced through highly efficient degradation of PFOA in polar aprotic solvent, and then F- ion was detected with highly selective F- ion fluorescent probe, which enabled the indirect quantitative detection of PFOA in biological samples. The sensitivity for PFOA was exhibited with limit of detection of 3.55 μM. The method’s accuracy and precision were validated by spiked biological sample experiment, with recovery rate ranging from 93.2 % to 105.5 % and relative standard deviation below 9.2 %. The content of PFOA was successfully detected in rats livers, kidneys and lungs tissues. Density function theory was employed to explore defluorination pathway, indicating that heating, alkaline and water conditions played a crucial role in the degradation of PFOA to produce F- ion. Thus, this novel strategy is suitable for quantitative analysis of PFOA in biological samples with high selectivity, sensitivity, recovery ratio, and simple sample preparation, which also provides a strategy for evaluating the levels of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances in biological samples.

Optimum Thermal Treatment for Removing Antibiotic Resistance Genes and Retaining Nutrients in Poultry Broiler Manure

Poultry broiler manure is a reservoir of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs), antibiotics, organic carbon, and plant nutrients. However, its direct application leads to spread of ARGs in agricultural fields, causing public concerns. It is thus crucial to identify optimum heating conditions that remove ARGs while retaining nutrients. This study examined the effects of heating temperatures (100-500oC) and durations (30, 120 and 240min) on the removals of ARGs and antibiotics from poultry broiler manure and nutrient retention. The results showed that the poultry broiler manure contained a total of 211 ARG subtypes, which were susceptible to temperature. The contents of ARGs and antibiotics decreased with increasing temperature. The temperature had a significant effect on the loss of available phosphorus (r = -0.893, P <0.01), while other nutrients had no significant loss. The results show that the heat treatment at 110°C for 240min maximized the removals of ARGs while the loss of nutrients was minimized. Under these optimum conditions, all ARGs and antibiotics (e.g., oxytetracycline, tetracycline, doxycycline, tilmicosin, tylosin, sulfamethazine, and sulfadiazine) were removed while 91.98% of total carbon, 99.89% of total nitrogen, 92.38% of total phosphorus, 50.10% of available phosphorus, 99.96% of total potassium, and 95.02% available potassium were preserved. These findings suggest that heat treatment at 110oC for 240min could be an effective and affordable approach to safe use of poultry broiler manure.

A two-dimensional thin film structure with spectral selective emission capability suitable for high-temperature environments

Spectral selective emission materials, characterized by their high emission efficiency within specific wavelength ranges, play a crucial role in various fields such as infrared stealth and radiative cooling. In this study, leveraging the tunneling effect of ultrathin metal layers and the impedance matching principle, we designed a one-dimensional multilayer thin film structure composed of Mo/Ge/Al. This design successfully achieved spectral selective emission within the 3-14 μm infrared spectrum range, showcasing superior high-temperature infrared stealth capabilities. Research findings indicate that the infrared atmospheric window (ε3-5 μm=0.40, ε8-14 μm=0.30) maintains a low emissivity within the temperature range from room temperature to 400°C, while high emissivity in non-infrared atmospheric windows (ε5-8 μm=0.81) enables radiative cooling. The use of high emissivity in the non-infrared atmospheric window reduced the surface temperature of this structure by 15.3°C compared to untreated Si substrate under similar heating conditions. The temperature reduction was 34.1°C when compared to a Si substrate coated with a 200 nm Al film. This straightforward and easily scalable structure not only presents novel solutions for applications in infrared stealth and radiative cooling but also holds vast potential for diverse fields including military, aerospace, and industrial manufacturing, injecting fresh impetus and possibilities into technological advancement.

Effect of microwave heating on rock damage and energy evolution

Rock fragmentation efficiency can be increased by microwave heating. The mechanical properties and energy evolution characteristics of coarse sandstone specimens under different microwave heating conditions are compared in this paper. The effects of microwave heating time and power on coarse sandstone specimens of peak stress, elastic modulus, brittleness index, damage variable, and impact energy index are analyzed. The results indicate that the microwave heating power and microwave heating time are inversely proportional to peak stress and elastic modulus and directly proportional to peak strain. With the increase of microwave heating power and microwave heating time, the brittleness index and damage variable of rock specimens increase, the impact energy index decreases. The microwave heating power and microwave heating time increase the rock brittleness index. The energy absorption rate of rock specimens decreases with the increase of microwave heating time. The impact energy index is inversely proportional to microwave heating power and microwave heating time. High-power and long-time microwave heating can reduce the possibility of rockbursts and the intensity of potential dynamic disasters. The research conclusion can provide the theoretical and technical basis for breaking rock by microwave heating.

Comprehensive analysis of a novel sustainable photovoltaic/thermal assisted ground source heat pump system with energy storage

The imbalance of soil heat is a significant issue hindering the sustainable operation of ground source heat pump (GSHP) systems, especially under single-mode heating conditions. To address this challenge and develop a more energy-efficient, economical, and sustainable heating system, this paper proposes a novel PV/T-GSHP-PCM (photovoltaic/thermal-ground source heat pump-phase change material) system. A simulation model of the system was developed, and its performance was thoroughly analyzed. Furthermore, the comprehensive performance of four different system coupling configurations was compared. The study concluded that the PV/T-GSHP-PCM system increases energy efficiency by 13 % and reduces operating costs by 32 % compared to conventional GSHP systems. Furthermore, the PV/T-GSHP-PCM system achieves zero energy consumption, zero operational cost, and zero carbon dioxide emissions. After 10 years of continuous operation under single-mode heating, the soil heat imbalance rate stabilized at around 7 %, the heating coefficient of performance of the system decreased by only 0.04. This system demonstrates sustainable and efficient green heating. This study provides valuable insights for advancing research on sustainable and renewable energy-based heating systems.
