New Catalytic Properties of Chiral-at-Metal Complexes and a Cyclometalated Ru Complex
Asymmetric transition-metal catalysis constitutes one of the most powerful strategies to construct non-racemic chiral molecules. This thesis deals with enantioselective catalysis of chiral-at-metal iridium and ruthenium complexes as well as a chiral mono-cyclometalated ruthenium complex.
1) Kinetic resolution of racemic epoxides with CO2 catalyzed by a chiral-at-metal bis-cyclometalated iridium complex was accomplished, and s-factors between 6.4 and 16.6 were obtained for overall 21 monosubstituted epoxides containing diverse functional side chains. Notably, all reactions were performed at room temperature, and no copolymerization side reaction which occurred often in other catalytic systems was observed (Chapter 3.1).
2) Enantioselective intramolecular benzylic C-H amination of primary aliphatic azides was achieved by using a chiral-at-metal bis(pyridyl-NHC) ruthenium complex in combination with tris(p-fluorophenyl)phosphine (both 1 mol%) to provide a variety of chiral -aryl pyrrolidines with enantioselectivities of up to 99% ee. In this unique case, the phosphine serves as a crucial nitrene transfer co-catalyst and activates the organic azide through the formation of an intermediate iminophosphorane. This methodology offers direct access to non-racemic -aryl pyrrolidines which are very important structural motifs in many bioactive compounds. (Chapter 3.2).
3) A chiral cyclometalated ruthenium catalyst enabled direct enantioselective and highly diastereoselective oxidative homocoupling of 2-acyl imidazoles in the presence of one equivalent BrCCl3 to provide chiral symmetric 1,4-dicarbonyl compounds in 38-75% yield with 57-95% ee. Only one diastereomer was obtained for all the investigated substrates. Mechanistic experiments support a unique ruthenium catalyzed two-steps mechanism. The first step is a ruthenium catalyzed bromination of 2-acyl imidazole generating a brominated intermediate, followed by a ruthenium catalyzed stereo-controlled radical-enolate reaction providing the final product (Chapter 3.3)
The Brown-Halmos theorems on the Fock space
In this paper, we extend the Brown-Halmos theorems to the Fock space and
investigate the range of the Berezin transform. We observe that there are many
non-pluriharmonic functions that can be written as a finite sum
, where are holomorphic functions
belonging to the class . In addition, we answer an
open question about zero products of Toeplitz operators. Our results reveal
that the Brown-Halmos theorems on the Fock space are more complicated than that
on the classical Bergman space.Comment: 18 page
Semi-commutants of Toeplitz Operators on Fock-Sobolev space of Negative orders
We make a progress towards describing the semi-commutants of Toeplitz
operators on Fock-Sobolev spaces of negative orders. We generalize the results
in \cite{Bauer1,Qin}. For the certain symbol spaces, we obtain two Toeplitz
operators can semi-commute only in the trivial cases, which is different from
what is known for the classical Fock spaces. As an application, we consider the
conjecture which was shown to be false for Fock space in \cite{MA}. The main
results of this paper say that there is the fundamental difference between the
geometries of Fock and Fock-Sobolev space.Comment: 25page
Bounded Hankel products on Fock-Sobolev spaces
Let denote the Fock-Sobolev space of complex plane. The
purpose of this paper is to study the conjecture which was shown to be false
for Fock space by Ma-Yan-Zheng-Zhu in 2019. For a certain symbol spaces, the
main result of the paper says that the conjecture is actually true in

Factors Influencing Behavior Intentions of Junior Students to Use Chinese Animation and Comics Platforms in Chengdu, China
Purpose: This study aims to examine the behavioral intentions of junior students to use Chinese animation and comics platforms in Chengdu, China. The research model consists of perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness, attitude, trust, satisfaction, performance, and behavioral intention. Research design, data, and methodology: This quantitative research was distributed by questionnaire to 500 junior students in three representative universities. The sampling techniques are purposive, stratified random, and convenience sampling. The content validity was carried out by the index of item-objective congruence (IOC) and to examine a pilot test (n=30) by Cronbach alpha coefficient reliability test. Furthermore, confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) and structural equation modeling (SEM) was conducted to produce results. Results: All nine hypotheses are supported by research hypotheses and testing results. Perceived ease of use significantly impacts perceived usefulness and attitude. Perceived usefulness significantly impacts attitude and behavioral intention. Behavioral intention is impacted by attitude and satisfaction. Additionally, satisfaction is significantly related to trust and performance. Finally, trust also has a significant impact on perceived ease of use. Conclusions: The findings can be used as a reference for future research. In addition, application developers can effectively promote the deep integration of art and technology to enhance the artistic appeal of animation
