Y2O3涂层负载Pd整体式催化剂的制备和催化性能

以Y(NO3)3为前驱体制备了Y2O3涂层的堇青石蜂窝陶瓷载体.扫描电子显微镜、X射线能谱和超声波振荡等表征结果表明,Y2O3涂层不但具有良好的抗振荡性和粘结强度,而且具有很强的吸附催化剂活性组分(H2PdCl4)的能力,适合制备负载型Pd催化剂.以甲苯和乙酸乙酯完全燃烧为模型反应考察了催化剂的活性,发现以Y2O3涂层堇青石蜂窝陶瓷为载体的整体式Pd/Y2O3催化剂具有良好的催化活性和热稳定性,甲苯和乙酸乙酯催化燃烧的T99分别为210和300℃;催化剂经900℃焙烧4 h后,T99仅提高20℃,表明催化剂具有很高的热稳定性.催化剂的X射线衍射、拉曼光谱和程序升温还原结果表明,Pd/Y2O3催化剂经低温焙烧时,Y2O3和PdO均高度分散在堇青石蜂窝陶瓷的表面,而高温焙烧使催化剂活性组分PdO晶粒增大,从而导致催化剂活性下降.     

Synthesis, crystal structure, and nonlinear optical behavior of beta-unsubstituted meso-meso E-vinylene-linked porphyrin dimers

[structure: see text] A vinylene-linked porphyrin dimer, with no substituents at the beta-positions, has been synthesized by CuI/CsF promoted Stille coupling. In the crystal structure of this dimer, the C(2)H(2) bridge is twisted by 45 degrees relative to the plane of the porphyrins. The absorption, emission spectra, and electrochemistry reveal substantial porphyrin-porphyrin pi-conjugation. The triplet excited-state absorption spectrum of this dimer makes it suitable for reverse saturable absorption at 710-900 nm.     

Binding Aedes aegypti densonucleosis virus to ion exchange membranes

Experimental and numerical results for binding Aedes aegypti densonucleosis virus (AeDNV) using anion and cation exchange membranes are presented. AeDNV particles are adsorbed by anion and cation exchange membranes providing the virus particles and membranes are oppositely charged. Q membranes which are strongly basic anion exchangers were the most effective. Dynamic and static capacities for Q membranes were found to be similar. A numerical model is proposed which assumes a log normal pore size distribution. By estimating the required parameters from static binding experiments, the model may be used to calculate the breakthrough curve for virus adsorption.     

Methyl, hydrochalcogenido, and phenylchalcogenolate complexes of zinc in a sulfur rich coordination environment: syntheses and structural characterization of the tris(2-mercapto-1-tert-butylimidazolyl)hydroboratozinc complexes [TmBut]ZnMe, [TmBut]ZnEH (E = S, Se) and [TmBut]ZnEPh (E = O, S, Se, Te)

A series of hydrochalcogenido and phenylchalcogenolate complexes of zinc supported by tris(2-mercapto-1-tert-butylimidazolyl)hydroborato ligation, [Tm(Bu(t))]ZnEH (E = S, Se) and [Tm(Bu(t))]ZnEPh (E = O, S, Se, Te) have been synthesized from [Tm(Bu(t))]ZnMe; structural characterization by X-ray diffraction indicates that the variation in Zn-E bonding as a function of the chalcogen is significantly different from that in other series of metal-chalcogenolate compounds.     

Lattice models of peptide aggregation: evaluation of conformational search algorithms

We present a series of conformational search calculations on the aggregation of short peptide fragments that form fibrils similar to those seen in many protein mis-folding diseases. The proteins were represented by a face-centered cubic lattice model with the conformational energies calculated using the Miyazawa-Jernigan potential. The searches were performed using algorithms based on the Metropolis Monte Carlo method, including simulated annealing and replica exchange. We also present the results of searches using the tabu search method, an algorithm that has been used for many optimization problems, but has rarely been used in protein conformational searches. The replica exchange algorithm consistently found more stable structures then the other algorithms, and was particularly effective for the octamers and larger systems.     

First total synthesis of the 7,3'-linked naphthylisoquinoline alkaloid ancistrocladidine

[structure: see text] The first total synthesis of the rare 7,3'-linked naphthylisoquinoline alkaloid, ancistrocladidine, has been completed. The key feature of the synthesis is the formation of the extremely hindered biaryl linkage by Pinhey-Barton ortho-arylation of a naphthol with an aryllead triacetate. The biaryl aldehyde formed is elaborated in 10 steps to form a 1:1 mixture of ancistrocladidine and its atropisomer. Recrystallization of the mixture afforded ancistrocladidine, which was identical in all respects to the reported data.     

The configurational dependence of binding free energies: A Poisson–Boltzmann study of Neuraminidase inhibitors

The linear finite difference Poisson-Boltzmann (FDPB) equation is applied to the calculation of the electrostatic binding free energies of a group of inhibitors to the Neuraminidase enzyme. An ensemble of enzyme-inhibitor complex conformations was generated using Monte Carlo simulations and the electrostatic binding free energies of subtly different configurations of the enzyme-inhibitor complexes were calculated. It was seen that the binding free energies calculated using FDPB depend strongly on the configuration of the complex taken from the ensemble. This configurational dependence was investigated in detail in the electrostatic hydration free energies of the inhibitors. Differences in hydration energies of up to 7 kcal mol^–1 were obtained for root mean square (RMS) structural deviations of only 0.5 Å. To verify the result, the grid size and parameter dependence of the calculated hydration free energies were systematically investigated. This showed that the absolute hydration free energies calculated using the FDPB equation were very sensitive to the values of key parameters, but that the configurational dependence of the free energies was independent of the parameters chosen. Thus just as molecular mechanics energies are very sensitive to configuration, and single-structure values are not typically used to score binding free energies, single FDPB energies should be treated with the same caution.     

Sparsely substituted chlorins as core constructs in chlorophyll analogue chemistry. I. Synthesis

Five routes to stable chlorins bearing 0 or 1 meso substituents have been investigated, among which reaction of a 9-bromo-1-formyldipyrromethane and 2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1,3,3-trimethyldipyrrin proved most effective. Application of this route afforded metallochlorins [Cu(II), Zn(II), and Pd(II)] including the chlorin lacking any β-pyrrole and meso substituents.
