Nature-inspired methylated polyhydroxybutyrates from C1 and C4 feedstocks

Polyolefin plastics are widely used due to their low cost and outstanding properties, but their environmental persistence presents a major societal challenge. Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) are biodegradable substitutes for polyolefins, but their high cost and thermal instability are impediments to their widespread application. Here we report a series of methylated polyhydroxybutyrates, poly(3-hydroxy-2-methylbutyrate)s, which are structurally inspired by natural PHAs. The cis homopolymers exhibit tacticity-independent crystallinity, which allows for the discovery of high-melting, thermally stable and mechanically tough copolymers, and a full range of polyolefin-like properties can be further achieved by tailoring the cis/trans ratio of the repeating units. Moreover, these materials can be synthesized from inexpensive carbon monoxide and 2-butene feedstocks, and they can be chemically recycled or upcycled at their end of life. As a result, the versatile properties, abundant feedstocks and end-of-life utility of this family of polyesters will enable a powerful platform for the discovery of sustainable alternatives to polyolefin plastics.

Physiological Responses of C4 Perennial Bioenergy Grasses to Climate Change: Causes, Consequences, and Constraints

C 4 perennial bioenergy grasses are an economically and ecologically important group whose responses to climate change will be important to the future bioeconomy. These grasses are highly productive and frequently possess large geographic ranges and broad environmental tolerances, which may contribute to the evolution of ecotypes that differ in physiological acclimation capacity and the evolution of distinct functional strategies. C 4 perennial bioenergy grasses are predicted to thrive under climate change—C 4 photosynthesis likely evolved to enhance photosynthetic efficiency under stressful conditions of low [CO 2 ], high temperature, and drought—although few studies have examined how these species will respond to combined stresses or to extremes of temperature and precipitation. Important targets for C 4 perennial bioenergy production in a changing world, such as sustainability and resilience, can benefit from combining knowledge of C 4 physiology with recent advances in crop improvement, especially genomic selection.

Quasiclassical Theory of C4-Symmetric Magnetic Order in Disordered Multiband Metals

Recent experimental studies performed in the normal state of iron-based superconductors have discovered the existence of the C 4 -symmetric (tetragonal) itinerant magnetic state. This state can be described as a spin density wave with two distinct magnetic vectors Q → 1 and Q → 2 . Given an itinerant nature of magnetism in iron-pnictides, we develop a quasiclassical theory of tetragonal magnetic order in disordered three-band metal with anisotropic band structure. Within our model we find that the C 4 -symmetric magnetism competes with the C 2 -symmetric state with a single Q → magnetic structure vector. Our main results is that disorder promotes tetragonal magnetic state which is in agreement with earlier theoretical studies.

Theoretical vibrations of carbon chains C3, C4, C5, C6, C7, C8, and C9

The MBPT (2) procedure with the 6-31g (asterisk) basis set was used to study nearly linear carbon chains. The theoretical vibrational frequencies of the molecules C3 through C9 are presented and, for C3 through C6, compared to experimental stretching frequencies and their (C-13)/(C-12) isotopomers. Predictions for C7, C8, and C9 stretching frequencies are calculated by directly scaling the theoretical frequencies with factors derived from experimental-to-theoretical ratios known for the smaller molecules.

Determination of C1-C4 alkanes by ion mobility spectrometry

Results are presented from a comparison between two ion-mobility-spectrometer (IMS) methods of sample ionisation: a conventional IMS with very dry helium and an IMS using metastable helium ionization. As one of the tests, a mixture of several hydrocarbons expected to be the components of Titan's atmosphere (made of ethane, ethylene, acetylene, propane, n-butane, isobutane, and propyne in concentrations from 20 to 200 ppm) was analyzed by both methods. Results from the dry-He IMS showed that the dry-helium approach was more adequate for the analysis of these gases than the metastable-helium IMS approach. In the metastable-He approach, in which several versions of He ionization reaction were tested, the spectra produced were not as clear as the conventional IMS spectra, due to the fact that the strong electric field introduced in the reaction region to generate metastable helium affected the gating, resolution, and collection of the ions.

Experimental and Coupled-channels Investigation of the Radiative Properties of the N2 c4 (sup 1)Sigma+(sub u) - X (sup 1)Sigma+(sub g) Band System

The emission properties of the N2 c(sup prime)(sub 4) (sup 1)Sigma+(sub u) - Chi (sup 1)Sigma+(sub g) band system have been investigated in a joint experimental and coupled-channels theoretical study. Relative intensities of the c(sup prime)(sub 4) (sup 1)Sigma+(sub u)(0) - Chi (sup 1)Sigma+(sub g)(v(sub i)) transitions, measured via electron-impact-induced emission spectroscopy, are combined with a coupled-channel Schroedinger equation (CSE) model of the N2 molecule, enabling determination of the diabatic electronic transition moment for the c(sup prime)(sub 4) (sup 1)Sigma+(sub u) - Chi (sup 1)Sigma+(sub g) system as a function of internuclear distance. The CSE probabilities are further verified by comparison with a high-resolution experimental spectrum. Spontaneous transition probabilities of the c(sup prime)(sub 4) (sup 1)Sigma+(sub u) - Chi (sup 1)Sigma+(sub g) modeling atmospheric emission, can now be calculated reliably.
