高分子结构与性能关系原理-结构层次的意义

高分子结构是高分子性能的重要物质基础,对其结构进行合理的划分,有助于准确把握高分子物理知识体系的内在脉络。高分子结构层次的划分不仅要思考静态时特定质点在空间的堆砌特征,而且也要考虑结构出现运动或是变化的基本单元。按照质点尺度的不同,高聚物的结构可以分为单一高分子结构(链结构)、多个高分子结构(凝聚结构)和多种高分子结构(织态结构)三个主要层次。其中,化学因素所确定的链结构层次包括相对分子质量以及构造、构型等同分异构体形式;物理因素所确定的结构层次为高分子局部质点集合在空间的堆砌和排列;链段是容易被忽视、但又是最为重要的运动(变化)单元。

Fermentation of (+)-androsta-1,4-diene-3,17-dione ([structure: see text]) with Cephalosporium aphidicola for 8 days yielded oxidative and reductive metabolites, androst-4-ene-3,17-dione ([structure: see text]), 17beta-hydroxyandrosta-1,4-diene-3-one ([structure: see text]), 11alpha-hydroxyandrosta-1,4-diene-3,17-dione ([structure: see text]), 11alpha-hydroxyandrost-4-ene-3,17-dione ([structure: see text]), 11alpha,17beta-dihydroxyandrost-4-ene-3-one ([structure: see text]) and 11alpha,17beta-dihydroxyandrosta-1,4-diene-3-one ([structure: see text]). The fermentation of [structure: see text] with Fusarium lini also yielded metabolites [structure: see text]. The structures of these metabolites were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic techniques.     

A partition function algorithm for nucleic acid secondary structure including pseudoknots

Nucleic acid secondary structure models usually exclude pseudoknots due to the difficulty of treating these nonnested structures efficiently in structure prediction and partition function algorithms. Here, the standard secondary structure energy model is extended to include the most physically relevant pseudoknots. We describe an O(N(5)) dynamic programming algorithm, where N is the length of the strand, for computing the partition function and minimum energy structure over this class of secondary structures. Hence, it is possible to determine the probability of sampling the lowest energy structure, or any other structure of particular interest. This capability motivates the use of the partition function for the design of DNA or RNA molecules for bioengineering applications.     

Kinetic pathway to double-gyroid structure

We have investigated the structural development during order-order transitions to the double-gyroid (DG) phase of nonionic surfactant/water systems based on two-dimensional small-angle x-ray scattering patterns from highly oriented ordered mesophases. The lamellar (L) to DG transition proceeds through two intermediate structures, a fluctuating perforated layer structure having ABAB stacking and a hexagonal perforated lamellar structure with ABCABC stacking (HPLABC). For a hexagonally packed cylinder (H) to DG transition, we also observed the HPLABC structure as the intermediate phase, thus the HPLABC is an entrance structure for the DG phase. The hexagonal perforated lamellar (HPL) structure consists of hexagonally packed holes surrounded by the planar tripods, and the transition from HPL structure to the DG phase proceeds by rotation of the dihedral angle of connected tripods. A geometrical consideration shows that large deformations of HPL planes are necessary to form the DG structure from the HPLABC structure, whereas the transition from a HPL structure with ABAB stacking (HPLAB) to the DG structure is straightforward. In spite of the topological constraints, the HPLABC structure is observed in the kinetic pathway to the DG structure.     

三维纳米液膜沉积结构的模拟研究

基于三维动力学蒙特卡罗模型,再现了纳米液膜干燥后形成的双尺度沉积结构,探究了液体化学势、纳米粒子移动速率、液体临界蒸发率以及化学势锐度等参数对纳米液膜沉积结构的影响。结果表明,纳米液膜干燥时,液膜中的纳米粒子随着三相线移动自组装形成各种各样的沉积结构沉积在基板上。纳米液膜蒸发过程中,当液体蒸发达到临界蒸发率时液体化学势将发生突变,使其形成两种沉积结构。随液体初始化学势的增大,沉积结构逐渐变为均匀分布的密集网状结构。液体临界蒸发率越小,液体化学势突变后形成的沉积结构越明显。纳米粒子的移动速率越快,沉积结构中的枝状结构越少。化学势锐度对双尺度沉积结构的差异有很大的影响,锐度越大,两种沉积结构的差异越大。

Electrodeposition of tubular-rod structure gold nanowires using nanoporous anodic alumina oxide as template

One-dimensional tubular-rod structure gold nanowires have been prepared using electrodeposition method at constant current mode with confined nanochannels of porous anodic aluminum oxide template. The reduction mechanism of gold ions and formation process of tubular-rod structure gold nanowires are studied. Electron microscopy results show that the tubular-rod structure gold nanowires transform to solid nanorods when the electrodeposition time is long enough. The tubular-rod structure gold nanowires have an average diameter of 180 nm, which coincide with the diameter of the template used. X-ray diffraction results confirm that the tubular-rod structure gold nanowires are crystalline structure.     

Effect of change of water structure on the phase transition of liposomes of dipalmitoyl phosphatidylcholine

The role of water structure around model membrane systems (e.g., liposomes) on phase transition of the lipid dipalmitoyl phosphatidylcholine was investigated. Water structure was altered by changing pH and by addition of solutes which are known breakers and makers of water structure. The structure makers broadened the zone of transition and changed the overall phase transition profile, while the main effect of structure breakers was to cause a shift in the transition temperature. The observed variation of Chapman transition temperature and broadening of zone of transition with varying pH is discussed in terms of altered water structure around the membrane–aqueous interface. Binding studies with the dye 1-anilino-8-napthalene sulfonate showed that structure makers or breakers did not bind to the liposome surface directly. Thus the structure makers and breakers act on the membranes perhaps by altering the water structure differentially. Possible associated mechanisms of action are discussed.     

Equivalent potential of water molecules for electronic structure of glutamic acid

The fundamental importance of the electronic structure of molecules is widely recognized. To get reliable electronic structure of protein in aqueous solution, it is necessary to construct a simple, easy-use equivalent potential of water molecules for protein's electronic structure calculation. Here, the first-principles, all-electron, ab initio calculations have been performed to construct the equivalent potential of water molecules for the electronic structure of glutamic acid, which is a hydrophilic amino acid and is negatively charged (Glu(-)) in neutral water solution. The main process of calculation consists of three steps. Firstly, the geometric structure of the cluster containing Glu(-) and water molecules is calculated by free cluster calculation. Then, based on the geometric structure, the electronic structure of Glu(-) with the potential of water molecules is calculated using the self-consistent cluster-embedding method. Finally, the electronic structure of Glu(-) with the potential of dipoles is calculated. Our calculations show that the major effect of water molecules on Glu(-)'s electronic structure is lowering the occupied electronic states by about 0.017 Ry, and broadening energy gap by 12%. The effect of water molecules on the electronic structure of Glu(-) can be well simulated by dipoles potential.

采用含时金兹堡-朗道理论(time-dependent ginzburg-landau theory,简称TDGL)方法研究了纳米粒子(nanoparticles,简称NPs)掺杂的两嵌段共聚物/均聚物(AB/C)共混体系在球形受限下的自组装行为.在不同球形受限条件下,两嵌段共聚物/均聚物共混体系形成了多种丰富的形貌,如双螺旋结构、单螺旋结构、层状结构和洋葱环状结构等.当在以上前3种体系中掺杂纳米粒子后,体系结构发生了很大的变化.详细研究了纳米粒子的浓度和浸润强度对以上结构的影响.研究结果表明,通过调控纳米粒子的浓度和浸润性质,该共混体系实现了双螺旋结构→层状结构,单螺旋结构→双螺旋结构,层状结构→单螺旋结构等多种取向序的转变.对于洋葱环状结构,纳米粒子的加入对体系这一结构的影响不大.     

Computer-aided structure elucidation methods

Computer-aided structure elucidation methodology is discussed. Major processes involved in computer-aided structure elucidation systems are partial-structure elucidation, structure generation, and structure examination. For the three representative systems CONGEN, CASE, and CHEMICS, these processes are examined. There are four necessary conditions for automated chemical structure elucidation systems: reliability, width of application, ease of modification and portability.     

Experimental and theoretical investigation on the relative stability of the PdS2- and pyrite-type structures of PdSe2

Under ambient condition PdSe2 has the PdS2-type structure. The crystal structure of PdSe2 under pressure (up to 30 GPa) was investigated at room temperature by X-ray diffraction in an energy-dispersive configuration using a diamond anvil cell with a mixture of water/ethanol/methanol as a pressure transmitting medium. A reversible structural transition from the PdS2-type to the pyrite-type structure occurs around 10 GPa, and the applied pressure reduces the spacing between adjacent 2/proportional to [PdSe2] layers of the PdS2-type structure to form the three-dimensional lattice of the pyrite-type structure. First principles and extended Hückel electronic band structure calculations were carried out to confirm the observed pressure-induced structural changes. We also examined why the isoelectronic analogues NiSe2 and PtSe2 adopt structures different from the PdS2-type structure on the basis of qualitative electronic structure considerations.

Inorganic Crystal Structure Data to be Presented in a Form More Useful for Further Studies

To make inorganic structure data more useful for further studies a five-point list of simple procedures to be followed by authors of crystal structure papers is proposed. 1. A crystal structure should be described with the space group corresponding to its true symmetry. 2. A new structure proposal should be tested, if it is realistic in principle. 3. A structure should be described with a space group in a setting given in the International Tables. 4. For a comparison with other structures the structure data should be standardized with the program STRUCTURE TIDY. 5.“New” structure data should be checked in the databases, Chemical Abstracts or on-line intemet resources, if they are really new. The list is supplemented with many explanations, commentaries, examoles and references.     

酸洗对桦甸油页岩矿物质以及有机结构的影响

基于FT-IR和XRD技术研究了逐级酸洗对桦甸油页岩矿物质以及有机结构的影响。结果表明,采用HCl/HF酸洗方法可以有效去除黄铁矿以外的矿物质,但盐酸处理破坏油页岩中高岭石的立体框架结构。油页岩中有机质以脂肪族结构为主,存在形式为无序非晶态聚合体且变质程度较低。酸洗处理对油页岩有机大分子结构影响很小,但对有机结构产生了一定的影响。盐酸处理主要影响含氧官能团和苯环结构,会生成大量羧酸并破坏苯环的多环结构,但对脂肪族化合物的影响较小。氢氟酸处理主要对脂肪族化合物产生影响,破坏脂肪链的桥键结构,脂肪链断裂变短,进而使样品中脂肪族化合物含量降低。盐酸和氢氟酸处理均会破坏油页岩的羟基官能团,尤其对自缔合羟基氢键影响最大。
