Disposition of copper(II) inβ-cyclodextrin

Distances of glucose protons in-cyclodextrin (BCD) from copper(II) in copper(II)--cyclodextrin have been determined from¹H NMR spin-lattice relaxation time (T ₁) measurements for the first time. Very lowT _1p /T _2p values indicated the dipolar mechanism to be the most dominant one in determining the paramagnetic contribution to relaxation. The distances of copper(II) from BCD glucose protons indicated copper(II) to be present almost in the centre, inside the cavity in the same plane as H-1 and H-4. An average distance of about 5.0–5.9 Å was obtained for copper(II) from the H-2, H-3, H-1, H-4 and H-6 a and b protons in BCD.     

Spectrophotometric Determination of Trace Chromium(VI) in Mass Chromium(III)

There is little conclusive evidence of the toxic effects of Cr(III) so far, but Cr(VI) has carcinogenic activity, so the analysis of the chromine ions is very important in environmental research and the quality control of industry products. Usually Cr(III) and Cr(VI) interfere with each other in the species analysis, the measurement of Cr(VI) of numerous previous papers is related to the Cr(VI) samples, which contain a little Cr(III). When the amount of trivalent chromine exceeds ten …

Model Study of Basin Soil Loss (BSL) in the Loess Plateau of China (Ⅱ)

According to the influence of underlayer factor upon the basin erosion and in the support of Geographic Information System (GIS) of Loess Plateau(LPIS), the Gushanchuan Basin is divided into several regions with different erosion intensity. Correlating them to the BSL quantity, the complete soil loss model is established. By using this model, the soil loss quantity of the whole basin as well as each erosion intensity region can be estimated.     

Model Study of Basin Soil Loss (BSL) in the Loess Plateau of China (Ⅰ)

Rain is the main motive force of erosion in the Loess Plateau of China. The relationship between rain and basin soil loss (BSL) is the base for establishing BSL model. Based on areo image interpretation, site investigation and analysis of 30-year rain-hydrological data of the study area——the Gushanchuan River Basin which is a branch of the middle reaches of the Yellow River basin as well as one of the intense erosion centres, the BSL features have been revealed. According to the features, the structure of the BSL model is proposed as follows: C·R =S, where C, R and S represent the factor of underlayer, rain and BSL quantity, respectively.Then by using the methods of multivariate statistical analysis, the dominant rain specific elements that affect the BSL and the corresponding formula of the relationship between rain and BSL have been determined as P_m and I_a, and respectively. With this formula the BSL quantity of every rainfall can be estimated. The estimated accuracy can be satisfied after correc

Structure of (O→Si)-(acetoxymethyl)trifluorosilane in three phase states and in solutions

According to the IR spectroscopy data, the molecules of (O→Si)-(acetoxymethyl)trifluorosilane having in the liquid state and in polar media the intramolecular bond C=O→Si, exist in the gas phase in the temperature range 438–538 K in the equilibrium with the molecules with tetracoordinate silicon atom. This allowed to determine experimentally the enthalpy of formation of the intramolecular bond C=O→Si for the gas phase to be ΔH = 2.2±0.1 kcal mol⁻¹. In the solid state at 110 K and in the CS₂ solution, along with molecule with the C=O→Si bond, the dimers exist, which include both tetra- and pentacoordinate silicon atom. The data of quantum-chemical calculations (B3LYP/6-311G**) show that the shortest intermolecular bond Si-F→Si is realized in the associate formed by the molecules in the ap,sp- and sp,sp-forms, and the longest one, when both components are in the sp,sp-forms.     

Ship-in-bottle formation of Ru_3(CO)_(12) in NaY zeolite

NaY zeolite entrapped Ru3(CO)12 cluster has been synthesized from RuCl3 ion-exchanged NaY, which is well characterized by IR and Raman spectroscopies and CO chemisorp-tion. When the Ru3+/NaY sample is heated from 298 K to 393 K for 25 h and for 10 h at 393 K, the sample colour changes from dark to brown-yellow. The in situ infrared spectrum exhibits absorption bands at 2130, 2064, 2040, 2017, 1990, 1953 and 1925 cm-1. The bands at 2130 cm-1 arises from the Runm+(CO)l m =1-3;n = 1 - 3; l = 1-12). The bands at 2064, 2040, 2017 and 1990 cm-1 are proposed to be associated with the Ru3(CO)12/NaY, which are close to Ru3(CO)12 crystalline. Furthermore, the Raman results provide bands at 150 and 185 cm-1, which can be attributed to Ru-Ru bonds of the sample as in the case of Ru3(CO)12 crystalline, for which the A1' Ru-Ru stretching mode is assigned to 185 cm-1 and E1' Ru-Ru stretching mode is assigned to a band at 150 cm-1, respectively. CO chemisorption of [Ru3]/NaY gives a CO/Ru ratio of 3.85, which is simila     

Kinetics and thermodynamics of solvolysis of tris-(2,2′-bipyridine)-iron(II) perchlorate in dimethylsulphoxide

Summary Diluting a concentrated solution of [Fe(bipy)₃](ClO₄)₂ in DMSO causes the complex to dissociate. First order kinetics have been followed, with activation parameters of H = 26.69 ± kcal mol^–1 and S = 17.1 ± 1.3 cal K^–1 mol^–1. Comparing rate data in neutral DMSO with those in the presence of acid provides information about the reactivity of the first formed monodentate intermediate. This is more likely to dissociate to [Fe(bipy)₂-(DMSO)₂]²⁺ than undergo ring closure and reform the parent complex than in water. In DMSO, in the presence of added 2,2-bipyridine at 30.0° C, dissociation is not complete. The reaction is first order, and rate constants increase linearly with added ligand due to an increasingly significant back reaction. Kinetic and static derived values for the third formation constant of [Fe(bipy)₃]²⁺ agree well, and are smaller than in water. The origins of the reactivity differences in the two solvents are discussed.     

Photolysis of oxygen saturated ethers in the presence of Sn(Ⅱ) or Cu(Ⅱ) salts

Photolysis of diethyl ether-oxygen charge transfer complex in the presence of Sn(Ⅱ)or Cu(Ⅱ)salts gave higher yields of the oxidation products,ethyl acetate,acetaldehyde,ethanol,ethyl formate and methanol compared with those without the salts.In addition,the photolysis of an oxygen saturated te-trahydrofuran(THF)or dibutyl ether solution gave y-butyro-lactone or butanol and butyl butyrate as major products with small amounts of undetermined compounds,respectively.Their yields were also affected by the addition of Cu(Ⅱ)or Sn(Ⅱ)salts.     

The incorporation of C_(60) in cavities of 5,10,15,20-tetra-4-oxy(2-stearic acid)phenyl porphyrin in LB film

The structure and properties of mixed monolayer or LB film of 5,10,15,20-tetra-4-oxy(2-stearic acid)phenyl porphyrin/C60 were studied. A isotherms and small angle X-ray diffraction (SAXD) results show that C60 molecules were incorporated into the cavities of por-phyrin molecules in mixed monolayer and LB film . UV-vis spectra of mixed LB films show that the absorption intensity of porphyrin varied compared with pure porphyrin film, probably arising from the interactions between C60 and porphyrin ring. C60 molecules in mixed systems are well-dispersed. The TPP(CO2H)/C60 mixed LB film is a kind of two-dimensional host-guest system.

The calculation was performed by the intersecting parabolas method using O-H bond energy data for phenols. The correlation between the molecular structure of the thio (amino) alkylphenols and their reactivity in radical reactions is considered.

Distorted colloidal crystal of similar-sized aggregates (1.5 μm in diameter) of nano-sized diamond particles (4 nm in diameter)

Distorted colloidal crystal suspension of similar-sized aggregates of diamonds (1.5 μm in diameter) was obtained by the deionization of aqueous suspension of the pre-particles of diamond, 4 nm in diameter. The stability, characteristics, and the rigidity of the crystal-like suspensions were studied. The main cause for the formation of the similar-sized aggregates is deduced to be the cooperation between the van de Waals inter-particle attraction and the repulsion induced by the vigorous thermal motion of the pre-particles. The rigidity was evaluated from the microscopic observation in the sedimentation equilibrium. Fluctuation parameters of the distorted colloidal crystals estimated from the rigidities were between 0.03 and 0.06, which are quite similar to those of typical colloidal crystals and solids of hard spheres.
