四氟乙烯齐聚体的反应 四氟乙烯四、五聚体和芳香胺的反应

前已报道四氟乙烯四聚体(全氟-3,4-甲基己烯-3)(1)、五聚体(全氟-3,4-二甲基-4-乙基己烯-2)(2)和脂肪烷氧以及脂肪胺的亲核反应.本文报道化合物1,2和芳香胺如苯胺、β-萘胺的反应.由于烯烃1、2双键处于分子中间,因而当亲核试剂进攻时,双键容易发生重排,生成的末端基烯烃更具反应性,故导致一取代、二取代、三取代以及环化降解等复杂产物.     

Reaction of zirconacyclopentadienes with electrophiles such as benzaldehyde, methyl methacrylate and 1-bromo-2-butyne after treatment with RLi

Zirconacyclopentadienes reacted with electrophiles after treatment with alkyllithium. For example, the reaction with benzaldehyde after treatment with methyllithium to give a nucleophilic addition product of a dienyl moiety to aldehyde, dienylcarbinol, in a moderate yield. Similar reaction of a zirconacyclopentadiene using butyllithium with methyl methacrylate afforded a Michael addition product in a good yield. Treatment of zirconacyclopentadienes with n-BuLi followed by 1-bromo-2-butyne gave a mono-propargylated diene derivative in 95% yield after hydrolysis. When propargyl chloride was treated with n-BuLi first and then added to zirconacyclopentadienes, penta-substituted benzene derivatives were formed in high yields.     

分子动力学模拟研究纳米碳管中甲醇-水混合溶液的结构与输运性质

利用分子动力学模拟方法,对比考察了平衡条件、外压作用、梯度电场作用下,摩尔比为1：1 的甲醇-水混合溶液在纳米碳管（CNT）中的静态结构以及输运行为. 研究发现：在平衡体系与外压作用下,纳米碳管内甲醇与水呈现出明显的不混溶现象,甲醇主要分布于管壁附近,水分子主要分布于纳米碳管轴心附近;而在梯度电场作用下,纳米碳管由疏水性向亲水性转变,更多的水分子分布于管壁,导致纳米碳管内甲醇-水的不混溶现象消失. 另一方面,在外压作用下,纳米碳管内甲醇与水呈现单向移动;而在梯度电场下,甲醇与水呈现快速的双向移动,其流通量较相应外压作用体系高出近一个数量级,但由于双向的流通量大小相近,导致净流通量与外压作用下的净流通量差异不大.     

Coaxially bifocal liquid crystal lens with switchable optical aperture

An electrically tunable liquid crystal (LC) lens with dual hole-patterned electrodes is demonstrated. When the LC lens is operated at low voltages, the dual hole-patterned electrodes with different diameters impart the lens with a coaxial bifocal characteristic. At high voltages, the proposed LC lens functions as a conventional lens with a single focal length but with a switchable optical aperture. The demonstrated LC lens is free of disclination lines because of the presence of voltage-assisted high pretilt angles created from the upmost hole-patterned electrode with small diameter.     

BAB‐random‐C Monomer Sequence via Radical Terpolymerization of Limonene (A), Maleimide (B), and Methacrylate (C): Terpene Polymers with Randomly Distributed Periodic Sequences

A naturally abundant terpene, limonene (A), was radically polymerized with a maleimide derivative (B) and methacrylate (C) in a fluorinated alcohol to give terpolymers with unprecedented BAB‐random‐C sequences in which the BAB monomer sequence was randomly copolymerized with a C unit. In each binary system, limonene was hardly copolymerized with methacrylate while it was efficiently copolymerized with maleimide to result in a 1:2‐alternating BAB periodic sequence, in part due to the penultimate effects and hydrogen‐bonding interactions with fluoroalcohol. Methacrylate and maleimide were randomly copolymerized to give copolymers rich in methacrylate units with minimal amounts of maleimide–maleimide sequences. Their terpolymerization resulted in a BAB‐r‐C sequence as a consequence of the selective BAB polymerization between limonene and maleimide, the random copolymerization between methacrylate and maleimide, and the lack of copolymerization between limonene and methacrylate.     

Electrochemical Detection Using an Engraved Microchip – Capillary Electrophoresis Platform

The present study describes a simple strategy to integrate electrochemical detection with an assembled microchip‐capillary electrophoresis platform. The electrochemical cell was integrated with a microfluidic device consisting of five plastic squares interconnected with fused silica capillaries, forming a four‐way injection cross between the separation channel and three side‐arms (each of 15 mm in length) acting as buffer/sample reservoirs. The performance of the system was evaluated using electrodes made with either carbon ink, carbon nanotubes, or gold and under different experimental conditions of pH, capillary length, and injection time. Using this system it was possible to separate the neurotransmitters dopamine and cathecol and to quantify phenol from a real sample using a linear calibration curve with a calculated LOD of 0.7 µM. A similar concept was applied to determine glucose, by including a pre‐reactor filled with beads modified with glucose oxidase (GOx). The latter system was used to determine glucose in a commercial sample, with a recovery of 95.2 %. Overall, the presented approach represents a simple, inexpensive, and versatile approach to integrate electrochemical detection with CE separations without requiring access to microfabrication facilities.     

A potentiometric polypyrrole-based glucose biosensor

A new concept is described for monitoring a biomolecule with a sensor having an enzyme entrapped in a conducting polymer. This is based on the sensitivity of the electroactive polymer itself to changes of pH in solution. The concept has been investigated for a glucose sensor with glucose oxidase (GOD) immobilized in a polypyrrole (PPy) layer on an inert platinum electrode. Measurements with a Pt/PPy/GOD electrode for glucose concentrations in the physiological range gave a linear correlation with logarithm of concentration over one decade with a satisfactory dynamic response. There was practically no change of slope or range of linear response to glucose after several days of use; this was in contrast to the amperometric response of the detector when there was about a 50% loss of sensitivity.     

Purity of potassium hydrogen phthalate, determination with precision coulometric and volumetric titration--a comparison

The mass fraction of potassium hydrogen phthalate (KHP) from a specific batch was certified as an acidimetric standard. Two different analytical methods on a metrological level were used to carry out certification analysis: precision constant current coulometric and volumetric titration with NaOH. It could be shown that with a commercial automatic titration system in combination with a reliable software for the end-point detection it is possible to produce equivalent results with the same accuracy in comparison to a definite method handled by a fundamental apparatus for traceable precision coulometry. Prerequisite for titrations are that a high number of single measurement are applied which are calibrated with a high precision certified reference material.     

Kinetics of vesicle formation

 The kinetics of vesicle formation from a hydrotrope (sodium xylenesulfonate) solution of a surfactant (Laureth 4) is studied by the use of a stopped-flow apparatus combined with a dynamic light scattering device to determine vesicle size in the system. The hydrotrope system studied presents a system with a high surfactant solubilization combined with vesicle formation simply by dilution with water. The kinetic results show a single exponential decay time. The kinetic analysis indicates that the vesicles are formed from a molecular solution which resulted from the shear in the stopped-flow device and grow by monomeric association.

Peptide peak intensities enhanced by cysteine modifiers and MALDI TOF MS

Two cysteine‐specific modifiers we reported previously, N‐ethyl maleimide (NEM) and iodoacetanilide (IAA), have been applied to the labeling of cysteine residues of peptides for the purpose of examining the enhancement of ionization efficiencies in combination with matrix‐assisted laser desorption/ionization time‐of‐flight mass spectrometry (MALDI TOF MS). The peak intensities of the peptides as a result of modification with these modifiers were compared with the peak intensities of peptides modified with a commercially available cysteine‐specific modifier, iodoacetamide (IA). Our experiments show significant enhancement in the peak intensities of three cysteine‐containing synthetic peptides modified with IAA compared to those modified with IA. The results showed a 4.5–6‐fold increase as a result of modification with IAA compared to modification with IA. Furthermore, it was found that IAA modification also significantly enhanced the peak intensities of many peptides of a commercially available proteins, bovine serum albumin (BSA), compared to those modified with IA. This significant enhancement helped identify a greater number of peptides of these proteins, leading to a higher sequence coverage with greater confidence scores in identification of proteins with the use of IAA.

A new method for determining droplet size distribution of an unstable dispersion

The droplet size distribution (DSD) of unstable water/oil dispersions has been studied with a new technique. The technique is based on a fast dilution of the dispersion injected into an analysis vessel where the DSD is analyzed with a video camera and a image analyzing tool. Dispersions generated with no pressure drop in the flow rig were compared to those generated with a pressure drop over a needle valve. The latter dispersion showed a much narrower DSD and a lower average droplet diameter. The results are from preliminary experiments in order to evaluate the method.     

On the Donor Ability of the Phosphaneiminato Substituent and Cube Formation with Transition Metal Fragments

The particular role of the phosphaneiminato ligand as a donor is investigated for a) nitrenes (phosphinidenes) and carbenes and b) cubane formation with transition metals. Accordingly, and as shown for the case a) the ligand is a stronger π‐donor than an amino group and can be considered as a special case of imine‐type substituents. The latter are very effective in π‐donation. In the case b), i.e. the cubane formation with transition metals, one has to consider transition metals with a partially or completely filled d‐shell (with electrons). Hence depending on the transition metal, cubanes are build with weak ferromagnetic coupled or closed shell systems. For the cubanes with closed shell character the matter of insertion of halide anions is discussed. In the last chapter of the review the bond stretching in the dithionitrosyl complexes with rhenium is characterized.     

Serenity: A subsystem quantum chemistry program

We present the new quantum chemistry program Serenity . It implements a wide variety of functionalities with a focus on subsystem methodology. The modular code structure in combination with publicly available external tools and particular design concepts ensures extensibility and robustness with a focus on the needs of a subsystem program. Several important features of the program are exemplified with sample calculations with subsystem density‐functional theory, potential reconstruction techniques, a projection‐based embedding approach and combinations thereof with geometry optimization, semi‐numerical frequency calculations and linear‐response time‐dependent density‐functional theory. © 2018 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Multinuclear cobalt–salen complexes with phenylene linker for epoxide polymerizations

Di‐ and trinuclear cobalt (Co)–salen complexes with a benzene ring as a rigid linker were explored for epoxide polymerizations. The dinuclear Co–salen complex with a 1,2‐phenylene linker showed higher catalytic activity than the dinuclear Co–salen complex with a 1,3‐phenylene linker and the trinuclear Co–salen complex with a 1,3,5‐benzenetriyl linker for the copolymerization of propylene oxide (PO) with carbon dioxide. A combination of the absolute configuration of the two Co–salen moieties was found to affect its catalytic activity. The optimized dinuclear Co–salen complex with a heterochiral combination demonstrated highest activity and maintained its catalytic activity under a low catalyst concentration. The heterochiral dinuclear Co–salen complex also showed high activity for the copolymerization of PO with cyclic anhydride. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Polym. Sci., Part A: Polym.

Synthesis of polyaspartate macromonomer having a vinyl end group and application to dispersion copolymerization of styrene

Sodium polyaspartate (PAspNa) macromonomer with an acryloyl end group was synthesized for dispersion polymerization. At first, a poly(succinimide) (PSI) derivative with a hydroxyphthalimide end group was synthesized by polycondensation of l-aspartic acid and 4-hydroxyphthalic acid. Then, the PSI derivative was end-capped with an acryloyl group by a reaction with acrlyloyl chloride. Finally, a PAspNa derivative with a vinyl end group was synthesized by a hydrolysis of succinimide units by sodium hydroxide. The synthesized macromonomer was applied as a polymerizable stabilizer in dispersion copolymerization of styrene in a mixture of ethanol and water. The PAspNa macromonomer acted as an effective stabilizer and gave sub-micron-sized polymeric particles in dispersion polymerization in polar medium.     

Solid-phase synthesis of 5-arylhistidines via a microwave-assisted Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling

Microwave irradiation efficiently promoted the solid-phase Suzuki-Miyaura reaction of a 5-bromohistidine with various arylboronic acids in the presence of a palladium catalyst. This methodology allowed the synthesis of peptides bearing a histidine residue substituted at position 5 of the imidazole ring with a phenyl, a substituted phenyl, a pyridyl, or a thienyl ring, as well as with the benzene ring of a tyrosine residue.     

Photosalient Effect of a Diarylethene with a Perfluorocyclohexene Ring

Crystals of a diarylethene with a perfluorocyclohexene ring exhibit a remarkable photosalient effect upon UV light irradiation that is attributed to the structural changes that occur when going from open‐ to closed‐ring isomers in the crystalline state, together with the existence of two conformers with different photoconversions compared with those of a perfluorocyclopentene derivative. Our current results give a design principle for molecular structures so as to achieve the photosalient effect for photochromic crystals.     

Structural Features of the Algal Cell Determine Adhesion Behavior at a Charged Interface

We aimed to examine the effects of algal structural features on adhesion at a charged interface. Results showed that algae with a glycocalyx, and with a cellulose amphiesma adhered at a charged interface at species-specific potential ranges. Algae, encased with a calcite-encrusted theca, and with an organosilicate cell wall, did not adhere to the interface. These differences in the amperometrically determined adhesion behavior of algal cells are in agreement with reported cell mechanical properties. Critical interfacial tensions of adhesion show differences between the studied soft algal cells as a consequence of their distinct cell barrier structure, composition, and properties.     

Selection of anion exchangers for detoxification of dilute-acid hydrolysates from spruce

Six anion-exchange resins with different properties were compared with respect to detoxification of a dilute-acid hydrolysate of spruce prior to ethanolic fermentation with Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The six resins encompassed strong and weak functional groups as well as styrene-, phenol-, and acrylic-based matrices. In an analytical experimental series, fractions from columns packed with the different resins were analyzed regarding pH, glucose, furfural, hydroxymethylfurfural, phenolic compounds, levulinic acid, acetic acid, formic acid, and sulfate. An initial adsorption of glucose occurred in the strong alkaline environment and led to glucose accumulation at a later stage. Acetic and levulinic acid passed through the column before formic acid, whereas sulfate had the strongest affinity. In a preparative experimental series, one fraction from each of six columns packed with the different resins was collected for assay of the fermentability and analysis of glucose, mannose, and fermentation inhibitors. The fractions collected from strong anion-exchange resins with styrene-based matrices displayed the best fermentability: a sevenfold enhancement of ethanol productivity compared with untreated hydrolysate. Fractions from a strong anion exchanger with acrylic-based matrix and a weak exchanger with phenol-based resin displayed an intermediate improvement in fermentability, a four- to fivefold increase in ethanol productivity. The fractions from two weak exchangers with styrene- and acrylic-based matrices displayed a twofold increase in ethanol productivity. Phenolic compounds were more efficiently removed by resins with styrene-and phenol-based matrices than by resins with acrylic-based matrices.
