Spectroscopic Study of the Interaction of Bu_2SnCl_2 with EHPG

A number of Sn (Ⅳ)complexes have been synthesized since 1980 and tested its anticancer activity1. The simplest complex Bu2SnCl2 has activity to P388 tumor cells. Several metal complexes such as Ru-ind (trans-indazolium (bisindazole) tetrachloro- ruthenate (Ⅲ)) had used transferrin as a drug delivery system, the complexes still exhibit high antitumor activity and lower toxicity2. We use EHPG as a model ligand3 to study the interaction between Bu2SnCl2 and EHPG. EHPGAt first, we stud…

The [2?+?2?+?2] mechanisms of trimerization of three ethynes and monosilaethylenes

The mechanisms of [2?+?2?+?2] reactions of three ethynes and monosilaethylenes to form benzene and 1,3,5-trisilacyclohexane were studied by ab initio MO methods. The reaction mechanisms were analyzed by configuration interaction/localized molecular orbital/CASSCF calculations. Although the [2?+?2?+?2] reaction of ethyne is typically ??homologous?? concerted, that of monosilaethylene is polarized (ionic-cyclic) one-step reaction. In addition, the aromaticity along the intrinsic reaction coordinate pathway was studied using the index of deviation from aromaticity. Although the transition state of trimerization of ethyne does not have an aromatic nature for the ??- and ??-bonds formation system, the crossing point of the ??-bond formation and ??-bond breaking shows an aromatic nature.     

Non-isothermal Kinetics of the Dehydration Process of Na_2MoO_4·2H_2O

Introduction In the field of thermal analysis kinetics, there have been many kinetic models and methods of processing the corresponding data, which can depict the most probable kinetic mechanism of solid state reactions, such as the method combining differential and integral methods,1-6 the method combining isothermal and non-isothermal processes7,8 and method of TA curve shape,9,10 and so on. Recently, based on the predeces-sor抯 work, a more complete kinetic method of process-ing thermal ana…

Degradation of Microcystin-RR by Combination of UV/H2O2 Technique

The experiments were performed to investigate the degradation of microcystins in order to assess the effectiveness and feasibility of UV/H2O2 system for the disinfection of water polluted by microcystins. The influence factors such as H2O2, pH and UV light intensities were investigated respectively. Degradation of microcystin-RR （MC-RR） could be fitted by either the pseudo-first-order or second-order rate equations. This homogenous system could significantly enhance the degradation rate due to the synergetic effect between UV and H2O2. The degradation mainly followed the mechanism of direct photolysis and .OH oxidation reactions. Experimental results showed that 94.83% of MC-RR was removed under optimal experimental conditions and the UV/H2O2 system provided an alternative to promote the removal of microcystins in drinking water supplies.     

Crystal Structure of a New Allotropic Form of trans-Pd(Creat)2Cl2·2H2O

Pd(creat)₂Cl₂·2H₂O crystallizes in space group P&1macr; with a= 7.257(2), b= 8.159(2), c= 14.640(2) Å, f =73.97(2), g =77.0(1), u =72.22(2)°, Z=2, and represents a new allotropic form of this compound. Pd atoms have planar fourfold coordination of N and Cl atoms in trans configuration. Creatinine moieties are coordinated to the Pd atoms via endocyclic N atoms and their essential planarity causes significant delocalization of electron density. The structure is stabilized by a system of weak hydrogen bonds involving interstitial water molecules and creatinine amino-groups.     

Theoretical Study of the Dehydration Process of MgCl_2·4H_2O to MgCl_2·2H_2O

Density functional theory was employed to study the dehydration mechanism of MgCI_2·4H_2O. Analysis of potential energy surface(PES) of possible pathways indicated that the most possible way was one of the water molecules halfly dissociated with an elongated bond distance with Mg~(2+),where electrostatic interaction played a leading role; another water molecule dissociated sequentially. It was in agreement with the result from differencial thermal analysis. The dehydration process of MgCI_2·4H_2O was clarified theoretically,promoting the theoretical study of dehydration of MgCI_2·2H_2O.     

Influence of NO on the Reduction of NO2 with CO over Pt/SiO2 in the Presence of O2

Reduction of NO2 with CO in the presence of NO and excess oxygen, a model mixture for flue gas, over a 0.1% Pt/SiO2 catalyst was studied. The related reaction mechanisms, such as oxidation of CO and NO, were discussed. It was found that there was a narrow temperature window （180-190 ℃） for the reduction of NO2 by CO. When the temperature was lower than the lower limit of the window, the reduction hardly occurred, while when the temperature was higher than the upper limit of the window, the direct oxidation of CO by O2 occurred and thereby NO2 could not be effectively reduced by CO. The presence of NO shifted the window to higher temperatures owing to the inhibition effect of NO on the activation of O2 on Pt, which made it possible to reduce NO2 by CO in flue gas.

Synthesis of BR2 complexes of α-pyrrolyl dipyrrins

A series of BR₂ complexes of α-pyrrolyl dipyrrin were synthesized from BF₂ complex of α-pyrrolyl dipyrrin (3-pyrrolyl BODIPY) by treating it with various alkyl- and aryl magnesium halides under mild Grignard reaction conditions. The BR₂ complexes were functionalized at α-position of the appended pyrrole ring with formyl, chloro and bromo functional groups and these functionalized BR₂ complexes were used further to prepare various novel derivatives of BR₂ complexes. The BR₂ complexes were characterized by HR mass, NMR, absorption, fluorescence, and electrochemical techniques. Two of the BR₂ complexes were structurally characterized by X-ray crystallography. Our studies revealed that the substitution of fluorine atoms at the boron center of 3-pyrrolyl BODIPYs with different alkyl/aryl groups significantly alters their structural, spectral and electrochemical properties. The DFT studies also support the alteration of the electronic properties of the BR₂ complexes.     

First Synthesis of 2a-Thiol Ether Analog of Docetaxel
