Abstract Silver nanowires (AgNWs) have attracted attentions form both academia and industry due to their outstanding electronic and optical properties. The AgNW-based devices for various uses were invented in recent years. It is well known that the sizes of AgNWs have a crucial effect on the performance of AgNW-based devices. However, how to synthesize AgNWs with controlled sizes is still unsolved. Researchers reported many methods to synthesize AgNWs with different sizes in the past decade. However, a review that focuses on the synthetic methods of AgNWs is very rare. The aim of this review is to summarize the recent developments that have been achieved with AgNWs, and many procedure details and results and discussions will be provided for practical use.

AbstractSingle-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) and multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) were functionalized with 3,4-diaminobenzoic acid via “direct” Friedel-Crafts acylation reaction in PPA/P2O5 to afford ortho-diamino-functionalized SWCNT (DIF-SWCNT) and MWCNT (DIF-MWCNT). The resultant DIF-SWCNT and DIF-MWCNT showed improved solubility and dispersibility. To improve interfacial adhesion between CNT and polymer matrix, the grafting of ABPBI onto the surface of DIF-SWCNT (10 wt%) or DIF-MWCNT (10 wt%) was conducted by simple in-situ polymerization of AB monomer, 3,4-diaminobenzoic acid dihydrochloride, in PPA. The resultant ABPBI-g-MWCNT and ABPBI-g-SWCNT showed improved the mechanical and electrical properties.

A1 Receptor

Over the past two decades 2-amino-3-benzoylthiophenes have been found to act as allosteric enhancers of the adenosine A1 receptor (A1AR). As such, compounds of this type have potential applications in the therapy of a variety of disorders by enhancing A1AR activation. Initial studies in this field identified various 2-amino-3-benzoylthiophenes as potential leads and of these PD 81723 1a has become the benchmark for comparative studies due to its favourable ratio of allosteric enhancement to antagonism. Surprisingly the synthesis and characterization of PD 81723 1a has not been previously reported. Herein we report the synthesis and characterization of this important A1AR allosteric enhancer. As part of this study we also found an unexpected reaction pathway to 2-phenylthiophene-3-carbonitriles.
