ELASTIC BEHAVIOR OF PROTEIN-LIKE SINGLE CHAIN

The conformational properties and elastic behaviors of protein-like single chains in the process of tensile elongation were investigated by means of Monte Carlo method. The sequences of protein-like single chains contain two types of residues: hydrophobic (H) and hydrophilic (P). The average conformations and thermodynamics statistical properties of protein-like single chains with various elongation ratio λ were calculated. It was found that the mean-square end-to-end distance r increases with elongation ratio,λ. The tensor eigenvalues ratio of : decreases with elongation ratio λ for short (HP)x protein-like polymers, however, the ratio of : increases with elongation ratioλ,especially for long (H)x sequence. Average energy per bond increases with elongation ratioλ, especially for(H)x protein-like single chains. Helmholtz free energy per bond also increases with elongation ratioλ. Elastic force (f), energy contribution to force (fU) and entropy contribution to force (fs) for different protein-like single chains were also calculated.These investigations may provide some insights into elastic behaviors of proteins.     

微波法研制碱土金属氧化物负载型MCM-48碱性介孔材料

以立方相介孔分子筛MCM-48为载体,用微波辐射分散MgO或CaO和醋酸镁溶液浸渍等方法研制碱性介孔材料。MCM-48能经受微波辐射,负载碱性客体之后也保持介相结构。异丙醇分解探针反应表明:载体本身没有碱催化活性,而碱性MCM-48介孔材料的活性随温度升高而提高。本文还对介孔材料在微波分散和碱性催化方面的特点进行分析。     

Thermal decomposition of basic cobalt and copper carbonates

Basic cobalt and copper carbonates were prepared by precipitation from solutions of their nitrates using KHCO₃ at room temperature in CO₂ atmosphere. The thermal decomposition of the prepared basic carbonates was studied by means of TG and DTA techniques and the phases produced were identified by XRD measurements. The products obtained at 400C were subjected to different doses of gamma-rays (40–160 M rad) and the thermal stabilities of these solids were investigated.The results obtained revealed that basic cobalt carbonate decomposed at 335C to produce Co₃O₄ which remained stable up to 850 and then decomposed above this temperature giving CoO which transformed into Co₃O₄ on cooling to room temperature. Basic copper carbonate dissociated at 290C yielding CuO which yielded Cu₂O and metallic copper at 1060 and 1150C, respectively. However, the produced cuprous oxide and metallic copper solids were converted into CuO and CU₂O, respectively by cooling in air to room temperature.Gamma-irradiation decreased the thermal stability of Co₃O₄ to an extent proportional to the dose employed. On the other hand, this treatment increased the thermal stability of both CuO and Cu₂O.

Ionization potential of excited states of Be‐like sequence in the concept of iso‐spectrum‐level series

With the introduction of the concept of the iso‐spectrum‐level series, a linear relationship is found between the first differences of the ionization potential of excited states and nuclear charge Z along an iso‐spectrum‐level series, and the ionization potential of excited states of Be‐like sequence are studied systematically on the basis of the weakest bound electron potential model theory. The expression of nonrelativistic ionization potential is derived from the weakest bound electron potential model theory, and relativistic effects are included by using a fourth‐order polynomial in Z. As a demonstration, the ionization potentials of [He]2s2p ³P, [He]2s3s ¹S₀, [He]2s3p ¹P, [He]2s3d ¹D₂, and [He]2s4d ¹D₂ series for a range of Be‐like sequence from Z = 4–23 are calculated. The results are compared with the experimental data and the recent sophisticated ab initio results. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Int J Quantum Chem 93: 344–350, 2003     

[Bi6O4.5(OH)3.5]2(NO3)11: a new anhydrous bismuth basic nitrate. Synthesis and structure determination from twinned crystals

The bismuth basic nitrate [Bi₆O_4.5(OH)_3.5]₂(NO₃)₁₁ crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁ with , , , β=107.329(17)° and . Its structure has been determined from , twinned crystal X-ray data (16 781 reflections, 683 parameters, R=0.0703). It is built upon [Bi₆O_x(OH)_8−x]^(10−x)+, x=4 and x=5 hexanuclear complexes and nitrate groups. The polycationic entities are linked to the nitrate anions either by hydrogen bonds or through bismuth-oxygen coordination. Even at , the [Bi₆O₄(OH)₄]⁶⁺ and [Bi₆O₅(OH)₃]⁵⁺ polycations could not be observed as such, the crystal structure refinement only detecting an average [Bi₆O_4.5(OH)_3.5]^5.5+ polycation. To prove the presence of both hexanuclear complexes in the structure, we report the existence of a correlation between the bismuth-linked oxygen bond-valence parameters and the presence, or not, of hydroxyl groups. Moreover, the Raman spectrum of the new anhydrous bismuth basic nitrate is compared to those of [Bi₆O₅(OH)₃](NO₃)₅·3H₂O, [Bi₆O₄(OH)₄](NO₃)₆·4H₂O, and two yet uncharacterized bismuth nitrates.     

Allowed transitions in silicon isoelectronic ions

Dipole‐allowed transitions have been studied for the first few members of the Si isoelectronic sequence. Transition energies, oscillator strengths, transition probabilities and quantum defect values have been estimated for the low‐ and high‐lying excited states of s and d symmetries up to the principal quantum number n=7 for these 3p open shell ions from P⁺ to Cr¹⁰⁺. Time‐dependent coupled Hartree–Fock (TDCHF) theory has been utilized to calculate such transition properties. Most of the results for transition energies, oscillator strengths, and transition probabilities for higher excited states are new. The transition energies for low‐lying excited states agree well with experimental data wherever available. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Int J Quantum Chem, 2001
