Properties of a Ring Critical Pointas Measures of Intramolecular H-Bond Strength

Summary.  The topological parameters derived from the Bader theory such as the electron density and its Laplacian at the ring critical point (RCP) are analysed here as possible measures of the H-bond stength for intramolecular H-bonds. The parameters of RCP correlate well with the other properties of intramolecular H-bonds which are known as good measures of the H-bond strength. The calculations were performed on two samples of compounds with intramolecular H-bonds: the derivatives of malonaldehyde and the derivatives of o-hydroxybenzaldehyde. MP2 and HF calculations were carried out using a 6-311++G^** basis set. E-mail: slagra@krysia.uni.lodz.pl Received February 18, 2002; accepted (revised) May 27, 2002     

Effective crystal field for trivalent first transition row ions

In the present work the semiempirical effective crystal field (ECF) method previously designed for electronic structure calculations of transition metal complexes and utilizing non‐Hartree–Fock trial wave function and parameterized for complexes of doubly charged Cr²⁺, V²⁺, Mn²⁺, Fe²⁺, Co²⁺, and Ni²⁺ cations is extended to complexes of triply charged cations of 3d‐elements. With the parameters adjusted the ECF method is applied to calculations of ground states and low‐energy spectra of the d‐shells of fluoro‐, chloro‐, aqua‐, amino‐, and cyano‐complexes of the triply charged cations. Obtained total spin and symmetry of the ground states match the experimentally observed ones. Satisfactory agreement between the calculated and experimental d‐shell electronic transition energies is achieved as well. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Int J Quantum Chem, 2002

Quantitative analysis of nicotinic acid, nicotinamide and 3-cyanopyridine in industrial effluent by high performance liquid chromatography

A rapid and reliable high performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method for the simultaneous determination of heterocyclic compounds, namely nicotinic acid, nicotinamide, and 3-cyanopyridine, in industrial effluent is described. A Φ4.6 mm × 150 mm, 5 μm C-18 reversed phase stationery phase, and a methanol-acetonitrile-water tertiary mobile phase (20:20:60 v/v) were used for separation. The detection wavelength of a diode array (DAD) was set at 216 nm with a bandwidth of 16 nm. Phenol was used as an internal standard. The regression equations revealed a linear relationship between the concentration of the analytes injected and the peak area detected by DAD. The limits of detection (S/N = 3) ranged from 0.70 to 1.18 mg L⁻¹, the recoveries ranged from 87% to 102% and the precision expressed as % RSD intra-day and inter-day varied from 0.9 to 3.9 and 1.2 to 5.6, respectively. This method is rapid, sensitive and suitable for the monitoring of nicotinic acid, nicotinamide, and 3-cyanopyridine in effluent of related pharmaceutical manufacturing plants.     

冰点下降法测定正十六烷中TBP的活度系数

磷酸三正丁酯(TBP)是核燃料及多种稀有金属水冶过程中使用的重要萃取剂,Healy 等人用蒸气压法、Alcock 用溶解度法先后测定过它在一些溶剂中的活度系数,不同作者的数据分歧很大,测定的浓度范围一般也较小.高宏成等人用磷-32标记TBP 分配法在较大浓度范围内测定过TBP 在氯仿、四氯化碳、苯、正已烷等8～9种溶剂中的活度系数,     

To what extent can an uncertainty calculation be general?

 It is argued that results of uncertainty calculations in chemical analysis should be taken into consideration with some caution owing to their limited generality. The issue of the uncertainty in uncertainty estimation is discussed in two aspects. The first is due to the differences between procedure-oriented and result-oriented uncertainty assessments, and the second is due to the differences between the theoretical calculation of uncertainty and its quantication using the validation (experimental) data. It is shown that the uncertainty calculation for instrumental analytical methods using a regression calibration curve is result-oriented and meaningful only until the next calibration. A scheme for evaluation of the uncertainty in uncertainty calculation by statistical analysis of experimental data is given and illustrated with examples from the author's practice. Some recommendations for the design of corresponding experiments are formulated.     

Vanadium Doped Sol-Gel TiO2 Coatings

A study of the experimental conditions required to obtain vanadium doped sol-gel TiO2 coatings is presented. Tetraethyl orthotitanate was employed as the TiO2 source and VCl3, VOSO4 · H2O and VOSO4 dissolved H2SO4 where employed as vanadium sources.Dip coating has been used to produce coatings on silicon wafers, spectral carbon electrodes and titanium electrodes. Both supported and unsupported films have been studied by UV-Vis spectra, IR spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The measurements have been made on samples as prepared and treated thermally at temperatures between 100°C and 300°C. The thermal treatment temperatures have been established from DTA/TGA measurements.The vanadium doped sol-gel TiO2 coatings have been tested as sensors for redox potential measurements in electrochemical processes. The influence of both the thickness of films and the nature of substrate has been investigated.
