摘要：The stability and reactivity of nanomaterials are of crucial importance for their application, but the long-term effects of stability and reactivity of nanomaterials under practical conditions are still not well understood. In this study, we first established a comprehensive strategy to investigate the stability of a highly reactive nanomaterial from the viewpoint of reaction kinetics with ultrathin tellurium nanowires （TeNWs） as a model material in aqueous solution through an accelerated oxidation process. This allowed us to propose a new approach for the design and synthesis of other unique one-dimensional nanostructures by a chemical transformation process using the intermediate nanostructures ＂captured＂ during the dynamic oxidation process under different conditions. In essence, the oxidation of ultrathin TeNWs is a gas-solid reaction which involves liquid, gas and solid phases. It has been demonstrated that the oxidation process of ultrathin TeNWs in aqueous solution can be divided into three stages, namely oxygen limiting, ultrathin TeNWs limiting and mass transfer resistance limiting stages. The apparent oxidation kinetics for ultrathin TeNWs is approximately in accord with a first order reaction kinetics model and has an apparent activation energy as low as TeNWs are thermodynamically unstable 13.53 ***^-1, indicating that ultrathin However, the unstable nature of ultrathin TeNWs is actually an advantage since it can act as an excellent platform to help us synthesize and design one-dimensional functional nanomaterials--with special structures and distinctive properties--which are difficult to obtain by a direct synthesis method.

摘要：A molecular [Ru(bda)]-type(bda = 2,2’-bipyridine-6,6’-dicarboxylate) water oxidation catalyst with 4-vinylpyridine as the axial ligand(Complex 1) was immobilized or co-immobilized with 1-(trifluoromethyl)-4-vinylbenzene(3 F) or styrene(St) blocking units on the surface of glassy carbon(GC) electrodes by electrochemical polymerization, in order to prepare the corresponding poly-1@GC, poly-1+P3 F@GC, and poly-1+PSt@GC functional electrodes. Kinetic measurements of the electrode surface reaction revealed that [Ru(bda)] triggers the O–O bond formation via(1) the radical coupling interaction between the two metallo-oxyl radicals(I2 M) in the homo-coupling polymer(poly-1), and(2) the water nucleophilic attack(WNA) pathway in poly-1+P3 F and poly-1+PSt copolymers. The comparison of the three electrodes revealed that the second coordination sphere of the water oxidation catalysts plays vital roles in stabilizing their reaction intermediates, tuning the O–O bond formation pathways and improving the water oxidation reaction kinetics without changing the first coordination structures.
