Generalized criterion of solvent polarity as a tool for control of chromatographic process

The generalized (reductive) criterion of solvent polarity was obtained by the method of multiparametric optimization of the Snyder index P", Hildebrand parameter _T , permittivity _r , and solvatochromism parameter E _T (30). Possibilities of employing this criterion for estimation of the elution power of normal and reversed mobile phases used in high-performance liquid chromatography were considered.     

DSC Study of Polyurethanes obtained from 4,4'-Bis(10-Hydroxydecaoxy)biphenyl

The melting and crystallization of a series of polyurethanes derived from poly(1,6-hexylene adipate)diol (PHA), 4,4'-dicyclohexylomethane diisocyanate (HMDI) and 4,4'-bis(10-hydroxydecaoxy)biphenyl (BHDBP) as a chain extender were investigated by using DSC. Thermal properties of the polyurethanes were found to be strongly influenced by the hard segment content. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

A facile synthesis of 4- and 6-chloromethyl-1H-indole-2-carboxylates: replacement of a sulfonic acid functionality by chlorine

Valuable new synthetic intermediates, 4- or 6-chloromethyl-1H-indole-2-carboxylates, were prepared by the elimination of SO₂ from 2-ethoxycarbonyl-1H-indole-4- or 6-methanesulfonic acids, respectively, which are easily accessible by Fischer-type indolization.

非晶SiO2纳米灯笼的制备和表征

在1000 ℃用活性炭把二氧化锡粉末还原成单质锡, 锡作为催化剂, 硅片作为硅源同时作为收集衬底, 在硅片上制备出了非晶SiO2纳米灯笼. 灯笼的一端连在硅片上, 另一端为一个锡球, 中间是一些圆弧状的SiO2纳米线把两端相连. 纳米灯笼具有良好的对称性. 利用扫描电子显微镜(SEM)、高分辨透射电子显微镜(HRTEM)、选区电子衍射(SAED) 和HRTEM自带的能谱分析仪(EDS)对样品的表面形貌、微观结构和成分进行了分析研究. 结果表明, 灯笼中SiO2纳米线为非晶态, 结点是晶态锡, 结点表面覆盖一层非晶态的硅的氧化物. 结合实验条件对纳米灯笼的生长机理进行了讨论, 提出了纳米灯笼生长的一个模型.

Preparation of poly(N‐ethyl methacrylamide) particles via an emulsion/precipitation process: The role of the crosslinker

Monodisperse, thermosensitive poly(N‐ethyl methacrylamide) microgel particles were prepared by the batch precipitation/emulsion polymerization of water‐soluble N‐ethyl methacrylamide and the hydrophobic crosslinker ethylene glycol dimethacrylate initiated by potassium persulfate. Particular attention was paid to the effect of the crosslinker agent on the polymerization process (kinetics, conversion, and water‐soluble oligomer content). Particles were characterized in terms of their size distribution and swelling capacity. A polymerization mechanism for the water‐soluble monomer and non‐water‐soluble crosslinker is proposed and discussed on the basis of a combination of both emulsion and precipitation polymerization processes. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Determining the wax content of crude oils by using differential scanning calorimetry

By the use of differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), a new method to measure the wax content of crude oil has been developed. In this paper, the wax content of a crude oil is proposed and proved to be the Q (total thermal effect of wax precipitation in sample) ratio of the crude oil and its corresponding wax obtained by using standard acetone method, i.e. Q_oil/Q_wax. For the 14 studied crude oils with the wax content ranging from 1 to 27 wt.%, the wax contents determined by the presented method are in good agreement with those determined by standard acetone method, with an absolute average deviation of only 0.82 wt.%. This method has an advantage over reported DSC methods in which the exact dissolution or precipitation enthalpy of wax is a must. It is also found that the wax contents determined by either of the two methods show good linear relationship with the total thermal effect Q_oil, with the correlation coefficients over 0.96. According to the empirical correlations, the wax content of a crude oil can be easily determined by using the DSC total thermal effect Q_oil. In addition and more significantly, the new method can be applied to improve the accuracy in determining the amount of precipitated wax in a waxy crude oil at different temperatures.     

A double alkylation—ring closing metathesis approach to spiroimines

As part of a programme directed towards the synthesis of the marine toxins, the spirolides and gymnodimine, a convenient synthesis of the key bicyclic spiroimine ring systems has been developed. The method involves double alkylation of a simple lactam, Grubbs ring closing metathesis of the resultant dialkylated lactam then reduction of the lactam to an imine.
