Separation and determination of seven fluoroquinolones by pressurized capillary electrochromatography

In this paper, pressurized CEC was used for the separation and determination of seven fluoroquinolones (FQs). The effect of different experimental conditions, such as the concentration and pH of the buffer, the organic modifier concentration, the surfactant and ion-paring agents added to the electrolyte, and applied voltage were studied. All the seven FQs were baseline separated using mobile phase containing 27% v/v ACN, 5 mmol/L Na2HPO4 buffer (pH 4.0 adjusted using citric acid), 11 mmol/L SDS, and 0.01% TEA v/v at detection wavelength of 287 nm and at an applied voltage of -10 kV. The calibration curves were linear (r>0.9991) over a concentration range of 1.0-50.0 mg/L for norfloxacin (NFLX); 2.5-50.0 mg/L for fleroxacin (FLX), ciprofloxacin (CPFX), and lomefloxacin (LMX); and 5.0-50.0 mg/L for enoxacin (ENX), ofloxacin (OFLX), and gatifloxacin (GFLX). The detection limits (S/N = 3) for ENX, OFLX, FLX, NFLX, CPFX, LMX, and GFLX were 0.5, 0.8, 0.4, 0.2, 0.4, 0.5, and 1.0 mg/L, respectively. The method is simple, rapid, and reproducible. It was successfully applied to the analysis of fish muscle samples spiked with FQs. Mean recoveries ranged from 81.6 to 97.6%.     

聚酰亚胺中空纤维膜用于甲醇/甲基叔丁基醚的分离

甲醇／甲基叔丁基醚混合物的膜法分离，大多采用渗透汽化方法，少有采用蒸汽渗透法。用聚酰亚胺中空纤维膜，对以蒸汽渗透和渗透汽化两种方式分离甲醇／甲基叔丁基醚混合物（甲醇质量分数为0．01－0．30）的效果进行了对比。结果显示，在甲醇质量分数低于0．05时，蒸汽渗透较渗透汽化法的分离性能优越。

Preliminary study of trace elements in human brain tumor tissues by instrumental neutron activation analysis

Elemental profiles of brain tumor tissues from 15 patients of astrocytomas (grade I–III) and normal human brain tissues of 23 male age matched autopsies as controls have been studied by instrumental neutron activation analysis. The SLOWPOKE reactor with a thermal neutron flux of 8·10¹¹n·cm^–2·s^–1 and swimming pool type reactor with a thermal neutron flux of 1·10¹³n·cm^–2·s^–1 were used for short and long irradiation of samples, respectively. Spectrophotometry was only used for analyzing phosphorus. A total of 18 elements Se, Na, K, Br, Cl, Mn, Mg, S, Ca, Cu, Hg, Cr, Fe, Rb, Zn, Co, Sc and P has been determined for this purpose. The reliability of methods has been checked by analyzing biological standard reference materials horse kidney (IAEA H-8) and bovine liver (NBS SRM 1577a). The analytical results showed that compared with the normal brain tissues, concentrations of Ca, Fe, Cu, Zn, Se, Mn, Br and Sc were significantly higher in tumor tissues (P<0.01) and concentrations of Rb, K and P were lower, while no differences for contents of Mg, S, Cr, Hg, Na and Cl were observed. A negative correlation between P and Ca in malignant and normal brain tissues was observed.     

Poly[tetra‐μ‐aqua‐hexa­aquadi‐μ3‐malon­ato‐dinitratodibarium(II)nickel(II)]

The title complex, [Ba₂Ni(C₃H₂O₄)₂(NO₃)₂(H₂O)₁₀]_n, has a two‐dimensional layer structure. The Ni atom lies on a crystallographic centre of symmetry in an octa­hedral NiO₆ environment, and is coordinated by four malonate O atoms in a planar arrangement and by two water mol­ecules in axial positions. The coordination of the unique Ba atom involves two nitrate O atoms, five water mol­ecules and three malonate O atoms.     

新型除草剂及其杂质的LC-MS和GC-MS分析

High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) have been utilized to analyze the synthesized 2-(2-arylaminomethylphenoxy)pyrimidine derivatives, which are a new kind of environmentally benign herbicides and have passed the temporary pesticide registration. The identification of main product and impurities has been achieved according to the UV and mass spectra. Moreover, one impurity, introduced by the raw material in the last step of the synthetic route, was identified by GC-MS analysis. It can be concluded that the combination of chromatography and mass spectrometry, including LC-MS and GC-MS, provided a vital tool of the pesticide science.     

Coordination chemistry of 2-(8-aminoquinolino)-4,6-di-tert-butylphenol with manganese(IV), iron(III), and cobalt(II/III):N,O-coordinated o-iminobenzosemiquinonate(1-) pi radical monoanions vs.o-iminophenolate(2-) dianions

The potentially tridentate ligand 2-(8-aminoquinolino)-4,6-di-tert-butylphenol, H[1LAP], has been synthesized and its coordination chemistry with Mn(IV), Fe(III), and Co(III) has been investigated by X-ray crystallography, electro- and magnetochemistry, electronic, Mossbauer and EPR spectroscopies. The following complexes have been prepared [MnIV(1LAP-H)2](1), St=3/2; [MnIV(1LAP-H)(1LISQ)](PF6).CH2Cl2 (2), St= 1; [FeIII(1LISQ)2](ClO4).0.5H2O (3), St=1/2; [FeIII(1LISQ)(3,5-dtcat)]2 (4), St= 0; K[CoII(1LISQ)(1LIBQ)](NCS)2 (5), St= 1; [CoIII2(NCS)2(1LAP-H)2(AQ)] (6), St=0, where (1LAP-H)2- corresponds to the o-iminophenolate(2-) dianion, (1LISQ)- is the o-iminobenzosemiquinonate(1-) pi radical derivative of the ligand H[1LAP], (1LIBQ)0 is the neutral iminobenzoquinone ligand, and 3,5-dtcat is 3,5-di-tert-butylcatecholate(2-) and N,N-coordinated (AQ) is 8-aminoquinoline. It is shown that the pi radical anions in 2, 3, 4 couple antiferromagnetically to the respective paramagnetic metal ion. Complex 4 is a dinuclear neutral complex with weak antiferromagnetic coupling between two [FeIII1LISQ)(3,5-dtcat)] halves. The asymmetrically ligated complex 6 contains two bridging (1LAP-H)2- ligands and two diamagnetic CoIII ions. In contrast, 5 is correctly described as [CoII(1LISQ)(1LIBQ)]+ rather than [CoIII(1LISQ)2]+ since it possesses a temperature-independent magnetic moment of mueff(10-298 K)= 3.0 muB indicating an St=1 ground state which is attained via strong antiferromagnetic coupling (|J> or =200 cm(-1)) between a high spin cobalt(II) ion (SCo=3/2) and a single pi radical anion (Srad=1/2).

Syntheses and Crystal Structures of Mono-and Binuclear Copper(Ⅱ) Mixed-ligand Complexes Involving Schiff Base

1 INTRODUCTION The chemistry of copper compounds has been extensively investigated and the relationship be- tween structure and reactivity, ranging from indus- trial catalysis to biochemistry activity, is of major importance. For binuclear copper(II) complexes equa- torially bridged by pair of hydroxide[1] or alkoxide[2, 3] groups, satisfactory linear correlation is found be- tween the Cu–O–Cu bridging angle and spin coupling between the metal centers. However, for binuclear copper(I…     

Magnetic switch of permeability for polyelectrolyte microcapsules embedded with Co@Au nanoparticles

We explored using a magnetic field to modulate the permeability of polyelectrolyte microcapsules prepared by layer-by-layer self-assembly. Ferromagnetic gold-coated cobalt (Co@Au) nanoparticles (3 nm diameter) were embedded inside the capsule walls. The final 5 mum diameter microcapsules had wall structures consisting of 4 bilayers of poly(sodium styrene sulfonate)/poly(allylamine hydrochloride) (PSS/PAH), 1 layer of Co@Au, and 5 bilayers of PSS/PAH. External alternating magnetic fields of 100-300 Hz and 1200 Oe were applied to rotate the embedded Co@Au nanoparticles, which subsequently disturbed and distorted the capsule wall and drastically increased its permeability to macromolecules like FITC-labeled dextran. The capsule permeability change was estimated by taking the capsule interior and exterior fluorescent intensity ratio using confocal laser scanning microscopy. Capsules with 1 layer of Co@Au nanoparticles and 10 polyelectrolyte bilayers are optimal for magnetically controlling permeability. A theoretical explanation was proposed for the permeability control mechanisms. "Switching on" of these microcapsules using a magnetic field makes this method a good candidate for controlled drug delivery in biomedical applications.
