Electrochemical studies of the oxidation mechanism of polyamide on glassy carbon electrode

Polyamides containing N-methyl pyrroles and N-methyl imidazoles are a type of small molecule that can bind and recognize the bases of DNA with high affinity and specificity. Five polyamides were studied at glassy carbon electrode in acetate buffer by cyclic and differential pulse voltammetry to clarify their redox pathways. The polyamide electrochemical responses are compared by peak currents and peak potentials. The slopes of the three anodic E_p vs. pH plots of a typical polyamide are linear and show 0.059, 0.057, 0.056 V per pH in acid media, respectively, which correspond to a mechanism involving the equal number of electrons and protons. A possible mechanism for the redox pathway of various polyamides is proposed: the oxidation product of imidazole ring is acylamide and the results of in situ UV–Vis spectroscopy at Pt web electrode support the proposed mechanism. electrospray ionization mass spectroscopy (ESI-MS) indicates that one or two oxygen atoms are added into polyamide molecule after electrochemical oxidation.

用SiO2交联剂(SiO2HPA)交联甲基丙烯酸甲酯(MMA)自由基聚合制备PMMA SiO2纳米复合材料。采用两步法将可聚合乙烯基单体以化学键的形式键接到SiO2表面合成SiO2交联剂,首先利用过量的甲苯2,4二异氰酸酯(TDI)对SiO2纳米粒子表面进行化学修饰合成出表面带有高反应活性NCO基团的功能化SiO2粒子(SiO2TDI),SiO2TDI与丙烯酸羟丙酯(HPA)反应合成SiO2交联剂。系统研究了MMA单体与SiO2交联剂投料比及聚合时间对聚合反应的影响。此外,利用红外光谱(FT IR)、DSC、TGA、可见光光谱仪等实验手段对纳米复合材料进行了表征分析。结果表明,纳米SiO2粒子在复合材料中起着物理交联点和化学交联点作用,复合材料玻璃化转变温度(Tg)明显地高于其纯PMMA的玻璃化转变温度,随着纳米SiO2粒子含量的增加,复合材料玻璃化温度升高,而透明度明显降低。     

连接基团链长度对季铵盐二聚表面活性剂C12-s-C12·2Br在水溶液中胶团化行为的影响

用电导法、稳态荧光法和粘度法研究了二聚表面活性剂C12-s-C12*2Br分子中的连接基团链长度(s=2, 3, 4, 6)对其在水溶液中聚集行为的影响. 实验发现, C12-s-C12*2Br的胶团生成能力远比其单体C12TABr强得多, 前者cmc值较后者降低一个数量级. 胶团聚集数N随表面活性剂浓度c的增大而增大, 其中当s=2时的N值在c=7.7 mmol/L后开始急剧增大. 计算结果表明, 此时胶团形状发生了明显变化, 形成了椭球形的胶团. 粘度测定结果也证实了这一点.     

Electrophoretic separation of DNA using a new matrix in uncoated capillaries

A new separation matrix, consisting of polymer poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) and small molecule additive mannitol, was used for double-stranded (ds) DNA and plasmid DNA separation by capillary electrophoresis. The matrix had a low viscosity, which made it very easy to handle. The additive mannitol dramatically enhanced the sieving performance of PNIPAM in TBE buffer. The optimal mannitol concentration 6% in polymer solution, was determined with the consideration of both speed and resolution. A resolution of 0.95 was achieved on the separation of 271/281 bp in the phiX174/HaeIII digest by using 1.5% PNIPAM + 6% mannitol, while the supercoiled, linear and nicked conformers of lambda plasmid were separated in 1% PNIPAM + 6% mannitol, demonstrating the potential use of this new matrix for effective DNA separations. The dramatic impact of mannitol on sieving performance of PNIPAM solution was investigated. pH dependent self-coating ability of PNIPAM was revealed. The presence of mannitol in TBE buffer decreased the pH of the buffer, which led to more efficient self-coating ability of PNIPAM probable due to the formation of hydrogen bonds between PNIPAM molecules and silanol groups at the silica wall.     

Two-photon Dissociation Study of Carbon Disulfide in Acetonitrile at 266 nm

Using laser flash photolysis/transient absorption technique for the study of two photon photodissociation of carbon disulfide in acetonitrile solution at 266 nm, the transient UV-Vis absorption spectrum of Rydberg state CS2 （6sσg） within 240-370 nm and subsequent dissociation product CS （α^3П） with the maximum absorption at 260 nm were directly observed. The lifetime of CS （α^3П） in the nitrogen and oxygen saturated solution is also studied in our experiment.     

2-氨基嘧啶对铜的缓蚀机理

利用动电位极化曲线、线性极化、X射线光电子能谱(XPS)、X射线俄歇能谱(X-AES)和表面增强拉曼散射(SERS)研究2-氨基嘧啶(2-AP)对金属铜的缓蚀作用。结果表明: 在含Cl~-离子的酸性介质中, 2-AP是铜的有效缓蚀剂; 随着介质pH值的增加, 2-AP的缓蚀能力降低。2-AP缓蚀能力随pH值明显变化的原因在于只有在酸性介质中, 质子化了的2-AP分子、Cl~-离子和铜表面原子(或离子)才可能形成保护作用强的多聚配合物膜。
