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.     

Photochromism of mixed crystals containing bisthienyl-, bisthiazolyl-, and bisoxazolylethene derivatives

Single crystals composed of two or three different kinds of diarylethenes, having similar geometrical structures but different colors in the closed-ring isomers, 1,2-bis(2-methyl-5-phenyl-3-thienyl)perfluorocyclopentene (1a), 1,2-bis(5-methyl-2-phenyl- 4-thiazolyl)perfluorocyclopentene (2a), and 1,2-bis(5-methyl-2-phenyl-4-oxazolyl)perfluorocyclopentene (3a) have been prepared in an attempt to form single crystals which exhibit different colors, depending on illumination wavelengths. When 1a and 2a are mixed in ethanol and the content of 2a in the feed is higher than that of 1a, only a needle-shaped crystal is obtained. The crystal shape is similar to that of 2a. On the other hand, high content of 1a in the feed leads to formation of a block-shaped crystal, of which the shape is similar to that of 1a. At a feed ratio of 1:1 for 1a and 2a, two types of crystals such as needle- and block-shapes are obtained from the same batch. Mixed crystals composed of three kinds of derivatives 1a/2a/3a have also been prepared. A crystal composed of the three derivatives in the molar ratio of 32 (1a):53 (2a):15 (3a) was obtained. X-ray analysis proved that 1a and 3a are packed in the crystal lattice of 2a. The mixed crystal 1a/2a/3a changed color from colorless to yellow, red, and blue upon irradiation with light of appropriate wavelengths.     

Refolding foldamers: triazene-arylene oligomers that change shape with chemical stimuli

We describe the preparation of five triazene-arylene oligomers (3, 4, 7, 8, and 11) and investigations of their folding properties in aqueous solution. These oligomers contain four 2-fold rotors and populate a conformational ensemble comprising at least 10 states. Extensive 1D and 2D NMR studies as well as X-ray crystallography establish that the presence of three members of the cucurbit[n]uril family (CB[n]), CB[10], CB[7], and CB[8], results in the selective population of the (a,a,a,a)-, (a,s,s,a)-, and (a,a,a,s)-conformers. As a result of the high affinity and highly selective binding properties of the CB[n] family, it is possible to fold a single foldamer strand (3) into the CB[8].(a,a,a,s)-3 conformer by the addition of CB[8], then unfold and refold it into the CB[7].(a,s,s,a)-3.CB[7] conformer by addition of CB[7] and 3,5-dimethylaminoadamantane (17), then unfold and refold it again into the CB[10].(a,a,a,a)-3 conformer by addition of CB[10].CB[5] and aminoadamantane (18). The transformation of CB[8].(a,a,a,s)-3 into CB[7].(a,s,s,a)-3.CB[7] proceeds through the intermediacy of CB [8].(a,a,s,a)-3.CB[7], which enhances the rate of dissociation of strand 3 from CB[8].     

Crystal engineering of photochromic diarylethene single crystals

Photochromic performance of diarylethene single crystals was controlled by crystal engineering using non-covalent aromatic-aromatic interactions as the directional intermolecular force. A diarylethene derivative with two pentafluorophenyl groups, 1,2-bis(2-methyl-5-pentafluorophenyl-3-thienyl)perfluorocyclopentene (1a), formed stoichiometric co-crystals with benzene (Bz) and naphthalene (Np) by aryl-perfluoroaryl interactions. Face-to-face pi-stacking interactions between the pentafluorophenyl groups of 1a and the aromatic molecules are responsible for 2:1 and 1:1 stoichiometric compositions in 1a/Bz and 1a/Np co-crystals, respectively. The diarylethene underwent thermally stable and photoreversible photochromic reactions in a homo-crystal of 1a and co-crystals 1a/Bz and 1a/Np. The absorption spectra of the photogenerated closed-ring isomers varied depending on the conformation of the diarylethene molecules packed in the crystals. The diarylethene 1a also formed 1:1 stoichiometric co-crystals with different kinds of diarylethenes, 1,2-bis(2-ethyl-5-phenyl-3-thienyl)perfluorocyclopentene (2a) and 1,2-bis[2-methyl-5-(1-naphthyl)-3-thienyl]perfluorocyclopentene (3a). Both co-crystals 1a/2a and 1a/3a showed photochromism. Although 1a, 2a, and 3a underwent efficient photocyclization reactions in their homo-crystals, highly selective photocyclization reactions of 2a or 3a were observed in the co-crystals. The selective reactions were confirmed by HPLC and X-ray crystallography. Excited energy transfers from 1a to 2a and from 1a to 3a are considered to occur and cause the selective reactions.     

Modeling the inhibition of peptide deformylase by hydroxamic acids: influence of the sulfur donor

The first complexes containing both a sulfur atom and a hydroxamate moiety coordinated to a biologically relevant transition metal were synthesized as models for the structure of inhibited peptide deformylases. Two of these [(N(2)S)Zn(hydroxamate)] complexes were characterized by X-ray crystallography. The first contains a thioether and a simple hydroxamate, the second a thiolate and a N-substituted hydroxamate. Isolation of a complex with a thiolate and a simple hydroxamate group was not possible.     

Synthesis of Some Novel Heterocyclic Xylidinyl Amines and Carboxamides

The xylidines 1a , 1b undergo condensation with ethyl cyanoacetate 2 and ethyl benzoyl acetate 15 to afford the cyano acetanilides 3a , 3b and the β‐diketones 16a , 16b , respectively. Compounds 3a , 3b react with hydrazine and phenyl hydrazine to afford the azine‐bis derivatives 5a , 5b and 7a , 7b , whereas 16a , 16b react with the same reagents to afford the pyrazolyl amine derivatives 17a , 17b and 18a , 18b , respectively. Compounds 3a , 3b react also with dimethylformamide dimethylacetal to afford the enaminonitriles 8a , 8b , whereas 16a , 16b react with the same reagent to afford only the enaminone 19b . The enaminonitriles 8a , 8b react with hydrazine and phenyl hydrazine to afford also the azine‐bis derivatives 11a , 11b and 14a , 14b , respectively.     

Controlled Dynamic Helicity of a Folded Macrocycle Based on a Bisterephthalamide with a Twofold Z‐Shaped Structure

Dynamic helicity in a folded macrocycle and control of the helical preference are described. We designed macrocycle 1 with a dual mode of folding through the integration of two flexible units that are arranged twice to form a cyclic structure. As a folding unit, we used a terephthalamide skeleton and a Z‐shaped hydrocarbon: the former acted as a control unit to induce a preference of a particular sense of dynamic helicity and the latter was just a spacer. A terephthalamide unit provided a binding site for capturing a ditopic hydrogen‐bonding guest when it adopted helically folded syn forms (M/P). Thus, only the terephthalamide unit controlled the helical sense of dynamic helicity in a folded macrocycle through the supramolecular transmission of chirality upon complexation with a chiral ditopic guest. In addition, chirality on a host could also contribute to the control of the helical preference in a folded macrocycle, which led to exceptionally enhanced chiroptical signals.     

Production of a positron microprobe using a transmission remoderator.

A production method for a positron microprobe using a beta+-decay radioisotope (22Na) source has been investigated. When a magnetically guided positron beam was extracted from the magnetic field, the combination of an extraction coil and a magnetic lens enabled us to focus the positron beam by a factor of 10 and to achieve a high transport efficiency (71%). A 150-nm-thick Ni(100) thin film was mounted at the focal point of the magnetic lens and was used as a remoderator for brightness enhancement in a transmission geometry. The remoderated positrons were accelerated by an electrostatic lens and focused on the target by an objective magnetic lens. As a result, a 4-mm-diameter positron beam could be transformed into a microprobe of 60 microm or less with 4.2% total efficiency. The S parameter profile obtained by a single-line scan of a test specimen coincided well with the defect distribution. This technique for a positron microprobe is available to an accelerator-based high-intensity positron source and allows 3-dimensional vacancy-type defect analysis and a positron source for a transmission positron microscope.     

Pyridoxylated Polymerized Hemoglobin Solution Processing

Glutaraldehyde hemoglobin polymerization gives too many high polymers, resulting in a too viscous solution. We describe here an alternate method leading to superior results, as compared to the classical one. This method includes a molecular fractionation step using a tangential flow ultrafiltration that secondarily lowers the unpolymerized tetramer’s content of a mildly polymerized, pyridoxylated hemoglobin solution (Pyr-Poly Hb). This leads to an adequately polymerized product with a lesser high polymer content, implying a lower viscosity. We thus obtain a pyridoxylated, polymerized molecular fractionated solution presenting suitable features as a blood substitute: A 7.5 g% hemoglobin 2 g% albumin solution had a 16% unpolymerized tetramer’s ratio, a 1.8 mPas viscosity, a P₅₀ of 2.8 kPa, a Hill coefficient of 2.1, a binding coefficient of 1.3 mL/g, a colloid osmotic pressure of 2.4 kPa, and a methemoglobin concentration of 3% Male Sprague-Dawley rats undergoing an isovolumic blood exchange with this Pyr-Poly Hb solution, down to a 2% hematocrit, present a mean survival time of 20 h.     

Synthesis, properties, and redox behavior of di(1-azulenyl)(2- and 3-thienyl)methyl cations and dications composed of two di(1-azulenyl)methylium units connected with 2,5-thiophenediyl and 2,5-thienothiophenediyl spacers

The titled stable monocations, di(1-azulenyl)(2- and 3-thienyl)methyl cations 7a,b and 8a,b and dications composed of two di(1-azulenyl)methylium units connected with 2,5-thiophenediyl and 2,5-thieno[3,2-b]thiophenediyl spacers 9a,b and 10a,b were prepared by hydride abstraction of the corresponding methane derivatives. These mono- and dications 7a,b, 8a,b, 9a,b, and 10a,b showed high stability with large pK(R)+ values. The values of monocations 7a,b and 8a,b were 11.2-11.8 +/- 0.1 and 11.4-12.4 +/- 0.1, respectively. Two cation units in dications 9a,b and 10a,b were neutralized via one step at the pH of 11.1-11.7 +/- 0.1, which corresponds to the average of the pK(R)+ values of the dications and half-neutralized monocations. Electrochemical behavior of 7a,b, 8a,b, 9a,b, and 10a,b was examined by cyclic voltammetry (CV). Formation of the thienoquinoid products 18a,b and 19a,b from 9a,b and 10a,b was characterized by UV-vis spectroscopy under electrochemical reduction conditions. Chemical reduction of 9a,b and 10a,b with Zn powder in acetonitrile afforded 18a,b and 19a,b as deep-colored crystals, which exhibited rather high electron-donating ability.     

Acyl- und Alkylidenphosphane. XVIII. Monoacetyl- und Diacetylphosphan

Acyl- and Alkylidenephosphines. XVIII. Monoacetyl- and Diacetylphosphine When triacetylphosphine 3a is treated with methanol 4 or benzyl alcohol 6 P? C(O) bonds are cleaved and a mixture of diacetyl- 2a and monoacetylphosphine 1a is formed. The thermally labile phosphine 1a decomposes completely within a few hours at +20°C; but 2a also reacts slowly within days to give triacetylphosphine 3a and further unknown compounds. As it is found by nmr-spectroscopic studies the acidic hydrogen atoms of monoacetylphosphine 1a are both bound to phosphorus. In liquid diacetylphosphine 2a or in solutions of this compound, However, there exists an equilibrium between the keto tautomer K- 2a with a PH and the enol tautomer E- 2a with an O? H? O group; compared with pentane-2,4-dione 8a the keto tautomerpredo minates in 2a . As in 1,3-diketones a low temperature and a small dielectric constant of the solvent increase the amount of enol tautomer E- 2a present. The ¹H-nmr resonance of the enolic hydrogen atom is observed at very low field (δ = 18,3 ppm).     

Modeling of the pseudo-colloids migration for multi-member decay chains with a arbitrary flux boundary condition in a fractured porous medium

A deep geologic disposal is the prime option for the long-term isolation of high-level radioactive waste (HLW) in many countries. For deeply located repositories, a radionuclide released from a failed waste container moves through the engineered and natural barriers before it reaches a biosphere. The pseudo-colloid which a radionuclide is adsorbed on a moving natural humic or fulvic colloid can be generated in a fractured porous medium. The size of a colloid is in general in the order of a hundred nanometer so that its migration velocity in a fracture is higher than that of a radionuclide due to the hydrochromatic effect. A large colloid cannot diffuse easily into a surrounding rock. Also, there are many kinds of actinides and these actinides have decay chains. In this analysis, the canonical form solution is derived for a pseudo-colloid and a solute in a fracture and a surrounding rock with a realistic inlet boundary condition with multi-member decay chains. It is used the Fortran based a computational code which uses a special subroutine for the inversion of Laplace transform. Consequently, the role of the pseudo-colloid in the fractured porous medium is important and also their decay chains aren’t neglected in the performance assessment of the HLW.     

Quantitative Bestimmung von Benzo(a)pyren in Zigarettenrauchkondensaten durch Hochdruckflüssigkeits-Chromatographie (HPLC)

Following a clean-up procedure by liquid-liquid distribution and column chromatography on a layer-column silica gel/aluminium oxide, a benzo(a)pyrene concentrate from cigarette smoke condensate was separated by high pressure liquid chromatography. As selective separating system served a column with cross-linked cellulose acetate. Benzo(a)pyrene was quantitatively determined with a fluorescence detector at a detection limit of 10–30 ng/5 μl injection volume. A determination was carried out from the same benzo(a)pyrene concentrate on a reverse-phase system.     

Electrophoresis of a sphere at an arbitrary position in a spherical cavity filled with Carreau fluid

Boundary effects on the electrophoretic behavior of a charged entity are of both fundamental and practical significance. Here, they are examined by considering the case where a sphere is at an arbitrary position in a spherical cavity under conditions of low surface potential and weak applied electrical field. Previous analyses are extended to the case of a non-Newtonian fluid, and a Carreau model is adopted for this purpose. The effects of key parameters such as the thickness of a double layer, the relative sizes of particle and cavity, the position of a particle, and the nature of a fluid on the electrophoretic mobility of a particle are discussed. Several interesting phenomena are observed. For example, if the applied electric field points toward north, the mobility of a particle has a local maximum when it is at the center of a cavity. However, if a particle is sufficiently close to the north pole of a cavity, its mobility exhibits a local minimum as its position varies. This does not occur when the particle is close to the south pole of the cavity; instead, it may move in the direction opposite to that of the applied electric field. For a Newtonian fluid, if a particle is close to the north pole of a cavity, its upward movement yields a clockwise (counterclockwise) vortex near the north pole of the cavity and a counterclockwise (clockwise) vortex near the south pole of the cavity on its right (left)-hand side. The latter is not observed for a Carreau fluid.     

Ordered nano-structure of a stamped self-organized protein layer on a HOPG surface using a HFB carrier

A groundbreaking method for ordered molecular layer preparation on a solid surface employing the drop-stamp method has been developed by us taking advantage of the characteristics of the HFB molecule as a self-organizer/adsorption carrier. It is a smart method which can be used to prepare a self-organized protein layer on a solid surface without unspecific adsorption or defects. In our previous report, we clarified the self-organizing nature of HFB-tagged protein molecules on a surface of a solution droplet. In this report, a protein layer was prepared on a HOPG surface by using the drop-stamp method with a maltose binding protein (MBP)-tagged HFBII molecule. The structure of the stamped protein layer was investigated using frequency modulation atomic force microscopy (FM-AFM) in a liquid condition. The FM-AFM images show that the drop-stamp method can prepare an ordered protein layer on a solid surface smartly. The drop-stamp method using a HFB carrier is a practical method which can be used to prepare an ordered protein layer on a solid substrate surface without unspecific adsorption defects.     

Röntgenstrukturanalyse eines neuartigen spirocyclischen Diglycosides,eines Abbauproduktes der Antibiotika Papulacandin A,B and C

X-Ray Analysis of a Novel Spirocyclic Diglycoside, a Degradation Product of the Antibiotics Papulacandin A, B and C Structure 4 has been established for a novel spirocyclic diglycoside which is a degradation product of the antibiotics papulacandin A, B and C. By X-ray analysis the diglycoside was shown to consist of a galactose moiety connected by a β-1, 4-linkage to a glucose. This diglycoside is further connected by a spiro union to a oxaindan-diol moiety.     

Association-dissociation equilibrium of loop structures in single-chain folding into a toroidal condensate

Recently, it has been revealed that a semiflexible polyelectrolyte chain can form a partially folded conformation stably as a result of an electrostatic interaction. Interestingly, there are cases where the appearance of this structure requires a high-salt condition of a solution. In order to solve this problem, we consider the double equilibrium of the formation of loops and their aggregation on a single-chain polymer. First, an aggregate with a typical surface energy is examined as a test case. The basic nature of the folding transition is discussed with regard to the chemical potential of loop structures. Next, we consider a charged aggregate for which the interior is completely neutralized by counter ions. In this model, a partially folded chain appears with a high-salt condition. Based on this model, screened interactions between surface charges and a toroidal shape of a folded structure are considered essential factors bihind this phenomenon.     

Fatty acids. II. The synthesis and gas-liquid chromatographic behaviour of five trimethylene-interrupted C18-diunsaturated fatty acids.

Five trimethylene-interrupted methyl octadecadiynoates, C18 delta-2a,-7a; delta-3a,-8a; delta-4a,-9a; delta-5a,-10a and delta-6a,-11a, and the corresponding cis,cis-octadecadienoates were synthesized, and their gas-liquid chromatographic properties were studied on Apiezon L, diethylene glycol succinate polyester and Silac 10C stationary phases. The equivalent chain lengths of these esters have been determined, and the separation of mixtures and the prediction of gas chromatographic behaviour of these isomers are discussed.     

A fluidic diode, valves, and a sequential-loading circuit fabricated on layered paper

Current microfluidic paper-based devices lack crucial components for fluid manipulation. We created a fluidic diode fabricated entirely on a single layer of paper to control the wicking of fluids. The fluidic diode is a two-terminal component that promotes or stops wicking along a paper channel. We further constructed a trigger and a delay valve based on the fluidic diode. Furthermore, we demonstrated a high-level functional circuit, consisting of a diode and a delay valve, to manipulate two fluids in a sequential manner. Our study provides new, transformative tools to manipulate fluid in microfluidic paper-based devices.     

On deflection fields, weak-focusing and strong-focusing storage rings for polar molecules

In this paper, we analyze electric deflection fields for polar molecules in terms of a multipole expansion and derive a simple but rather insightful expression for the force on the molecules. Ideally, a deflection field exerts a strong, constant force in one direction, while the force in the other directions is zero. We show how, by a proper choice of the expansion coefficients, this ideal can be best approximated. We present a design for a practical electrode geometry based on this analysis. By bending such a deflection field into a circle, a simple storage ring can be created; the direct analog of a weak-focusing cyclotron for charged particles. We show that for realistic parameters a weak-focusing ring is only stable for molecules with a very low velocity. A strong-focusing (alternating-gradient) storage ring can be created by arranging many straight deflection fields in a circle and by alternating the sign of the hexapole term between adjacent deflection fields. The acceptance of this ring is numerically calculated for realistic parameters. Such a storage ring might prove useful in experiments looking for an EDM of elementary particles.
