Isotope effects as probe of constrictive and intrinsic binding in hemicarceplexes

Kinetic isotope effects (KIE) of hemicarceplex dissociation for naphthalene and p-xylene hemicarceplexes with partially and fully deuterated guests have been measured. The KIEs are consistent with the absence of steric effects in the transition states of hemicarceplex dissociation, which supports an earlier interpretation of constrictive binding energy in hemicarceplexes as being primarily controlled by different forms of gating.     

Assembly of Water‐Soluble,Dynamic, Covalent Container Molecules and Their Application in the Room‐Temperature Stabilization of Protoadamantene

The thermodynamically controlled reactions of water‐soluble tetraformylcavitand 2 with two equivalents of H₂N(CH₂)_nNH₂ (n=2–4) in the presence of a suitable templating guest give hemicarceplexes 1 a – c? guest, the yield of which depends on the match between size and shape of the guest and that of the inner phase. These hemicarceplexes are dynamic and dissociate upon addition of acid and reform upon basification. In water, they exchange guests through temporary hydrolysis of imine bonds. To test 1 b as molecular reaction flask, 3‐noradamantyldiazirine 6 was encapsulated and photolyzed at 350 nm to produce Bredt olefin protoadamantene 5 and 1‐noradamantyldiazomethane 8 in a 4:1 ratio. Encapsulated protoadamantene is stable for days at room temperature in (CD₃)₂SO/CD₃CN (t_1/2=5.5 days) and has a lifetime of several minutes in D₂O.     

Hybrid photoactive assemblies: electron injection from host-guest complexes into semiconductor nanoparticles

Novel ternary assemblies consisting of fully encapsulated host-guest complexes (hemicarceplexes) and wide band gap semiconductor nanoparticles were investigated. The water-soluble amphiphilic host (octacarboxyhemicarcerand) traps the hydrophobic chromophore within its cavity and binds to the surface of metal oxide nanoparticles. Fluorescence quenching and fast charge injection, kforward >/= 7 x 109 s-1, from the S2 state of encapsulated azulene were observed. Charge recombination proceeds at a much lower rate of 2 x 107 s-1. Interestingly, the recombination kinetics is homogeneous, suggesting that electron tunneling through the wall of the "molecular container" is the rate-limiting step of the process.     

Molecular engineering. 8. Kinetic and conformational studies of resorcin [4]arene-based C4 tetraoxatetrathiahemicarceplexes: carceroisomerism and twistomerism

New C(4v) tetraoxatetrathiahemicarcerands and their six hemicarceplexes containing DMF, DMA, DMSO, or NMP were synthesized and characterized. Their conformations, kinetic properties, carceroisomerism, and twistomerism were studied by VT, 2D COSY, NOESY, and ROESY (1)H NMR experiments. The decomplexation rates of DMF or DMA were very slow with high activation energy barriers (73 and 104 kJ mol(-1), respectively) and the complexed guests feel more constriction than their free liquid state. The largest isomerization energy barrier of carceroisomers was 15.4 kcal mol(-1), and the isomerization energy barriers of twistomers are significantly larger than those of carceroisomers.     

Incarceration of Higher‐Order Fullerenes within Cyclotriveratrylene‐Based Hemicarcerands Allows Selective Isolation of C76, C78, and C84 from a Commercial Fullerene Mixture

Size‐complementary cyclotriveratrylene (CTV)‐based hosts can incarcerate C₇₆, C₇₈, and C₈₄, thus allowing the selective isolation of these higher‐order fullerenes from a commercially available mixture of fullerenes. The hemicarceplexes, formed after the encapsulation of the size‐complementary fullerenes within the hosts, are isolated by column chromatography and released at elevated temperature, thereby leading to the isolation of C₇₆/C₇₈ and C₈₄ in good purities (up to 95 and 88 %, respectively).     

An AM1 semiempirical study of host-guest complexation in hemicarcerand complexes

Semiempirical AM1 calculations have been carried out on host-guest complexes of model hemicarcerands 1a and 2a. The justification for the choice of the AM1 Hamiltonian was based on a comparison between reported X-ray data for the smaller tetrabromocavitand 4a and computational results obtained using several different Hamiltonians. The complexation behavior of hemicarcerands 1a and 2a have been compared with experimental results reported by Cram et al. for the related hemicarcerands 1b and 2b. Based on this comparison, a criterion for predicting guest encapsulation was developed, E(complexation), which relies on the calculation of AM1 heats of formation for host, guest, and hemicarceplex. If E(complexation) is lower than 10 kcal/mol, then a guest will be encapsulated, while if it is greater than 30 kcal/mol, a guest will not be encapsulated. The use of constrained-path AM1 optimizations to determine the energy barriers to guest entry and exit from the host was found to be a useful tool for examining suitable host-guest combinations when the E(complexation) criteria does not hold. We have computed the barriers to exit of N, N-dimethylformamide (dmf) and furan from the hemicarcerand 1a, the former has been compared with the experiment and shows excellent agreement. Based on the success of the above computational methods in predicting which host-guest combinations will form stable hemicarceplexes we have synthesized a new target hemicarceplex 1b.furan.     

Chemistry and properties of cycloheptatetraene in the inner phase of a hemicarcerand

Low-temperature photolysis of phenyldiazirine, incarcerated inside a hemicarcerand which is built from two cavitands connected by four butane-1,4-dioxy linker groups, yields transient phenylcarbene; this carbene then undergoes ring photochemical expansion to cycloheptatetraene in low yield. Competitively, the transiently formed phenylcarbene reacts with the surrounding hemicarcerand. The yield of the photochemical ring expansion was increased when the photolysis was carried out inside a partially deuterated hemicarcerand. Two insertion products resulting from an intramolecular phenylcarbene insertion into an acetal C-H(D) bond or an alpha-C-H bond of a butane-1,4-dioxy linker group have been isolated and characterized. The measured isotope effect for insertion into an acetal C-H(D) bond at 15.5 K is consistent with a reaction of singlet phenylcarbene. Incarcerated cycloheptatetraene is stable for a limited time at 100 degrees C and almost infinitely stable at room temperature in the absence of oxygen. NOESY experiments provide the distance ratio r21/r23 = 1.134 +/- 0.01 between protons H1-H2 and H2-H3 of cycloheptatetraene which is consistent with its twisted structure. Low-temperature photolysis of phenyldiazirine, incarcerated inside a chiral hemicarcerand which is built from two cavitands connected with three butane-1,4-dioxy and one (S,S)-2,3-O-isopropylidene-2,3-dihydroxybutane-1,4-dioxy linker group yields two diastereomeric cycloheptatetraene hemicarceplexes in a 2:3 ratio (30% total yield). Variable temperature 1H NMR studies provided a lower limit of deltaG++ = 19.6 kcalmol(-1) for the enantiomerization barrier of cycloheptatetraene. Incarcerated cycloheptatetraene reacts rapidly with oxygen to yield benzene and carbon dioxide via the 1,2-dioxaspiro[2,6]nona-4,6,8-triene intermediate. Different mechanisms for the formation of this spirodioxirane intermediate are discussed based on the measured rate of the oxygen addition. The activation parameters for the decarboxylation of the spirodioxirane have been measured in different bulk solvents. The free energy of activation shows very little solvent dependency. However. a strong propensity for enthalpy-entropy compensation due to a solvent reorganization that accompanies the reaction coordinate is observed.

Characterization of a urea optical sensor based on polypyrrole

A new optical sensor for urea determination is presented. It is based on the enzymatic reaction with urease, which is first photoimmobilized with polyacrylamide onto a chemically polymerized polypyrrole (PPy) film. The main advantage of this sensor is that no indicator dye or pH indicator is needed, because PPy itself acts as the support and the indicator. These PPy films show an absorbance spectrum in the near IR range which is pH dependent. The variation of absorbance is thus directly related to the change of pH caused during the enzymatic reaction, which is also dependent on the urea concentration. The linear range of the sensor is from 0.06 to 1 M of urea, which is the common level of urea concentration found in blood and urine samples.     

渣油悬浮床加氢水溶性催化剂预硫化研究 Ⅱ 钼酸盐硫化产物的XPS分析

通过XPS分析法对钼酸盐的硫化行为进行了考察,分别考察了四价钼物种质量分数和硫钼元素的质量分数比，发现硫化产物的表面化学组成中四价钼质量分数和硫钼元素质量分数比不成正比，证实了该产物表面钼的硫化物不完全以MoS2形式存在。未经过临氢加热的硫化产物表面的四价钼物种的质量分数显著低于经过临氢加热的样品的质量分数，说明临氢加热在钼酸盐的硫化过程中起了重要作用。氯化铵是钼酸盐硫化过程中有效的助硫化剂，当它的用量增大时，硫化产物表面四价钼的质量分数也增大。以蒽为探针，使用化学探针法测定了硫化产物在渣油加氢过程中的催化活性，发现随着氯化铵用量的增加，产物的催化活性也相应提高，印证了XPS测定结果。

Precolumn,Capillary Column,Electron Capture G-AS Chromatography For High Efficiency Trace Determination

Abstract

A method for gas chromatographic trace determination is described in which the sample solution is injected into a packed precolumn which is connected to an EC-detector. When solvent and low boiling compounds have been eluted, the precolumn is connected to the cold entry of a capillary column with another EC-detector and the trace compound is collected as a narrow band at the entry of this column. The precolumn is then reconnected to its own detector, the capillary column is heated and the trace compound is eluted and measured. Meanwhile high boiling compounds are swept out of the precolumn. When the base line of the precolumn is stable the next sample is injected and the capillary column is cooled again, and so on. In order to avoid background plateaus and ghost peaks the carrier gas must be purified, which is easily achieved with cooling traps with dry-ice and acetone.
