Intramolecular Catalysis in Reactions of Hydroxamic Acids

Among hydroxamate ions (typical nucleophiles), anomalously high nucleophilicity relative to 4-nitrophenyl diethyl phosphonate is seen in anions which have general basic catalytic sites that provide anchimeric assistance for proton transfer in the transition state.

Thermodynamic characteristics of solvation of individual ions in ethanol at −50 to 55°C

Experimentally determined are the enthalpies of solution of 12 electrolytes (LiBr, LiI, NaBr, NaI, NaBPh₄, Et₄NCl, Et₄NBr, Pr₄Br, Bu₄NBr, Am₄NBr, Ph₄PCl, Ph₄PBr) in ethanol at –50 to 55°C. _sH^o values obtained on the basis of four different extrapolation equations are analyzed. The effect of temperature changes on the thermodynamic parameters of solvation indindividual ions are calculated using thermodynamic data for the salt crystals (lattice) with the assumption that _solvC _p ^o (Ph₄P⁺)=_solvC _p ^o (Ph₄P^-).     

Concerning the acidity and hydrogen bonding of hydroxyphenanthroperylene quinones like fringelite D,hypericin, and stentorin

Summary The strongly enhanced acidity of the bay hydroxyl group as compared to the respectiveperi hydroxyl groups of fringelite D, hypericin, and stentorin could be rationalized on the basis of a vinylogous carboxylic acid and was nicely corroborated by semiempirical calculations of the AM1 type. Experimental data obtained from several independent experimental methods, like polarized absorption spectroscopy, hole burning, and isotope effects, as well as from semiempirical AM1 and 6–31G levelab initio calculations conclusively pointed to dissymmetrical hydrogen bonding systems in both theperi andbay regions of the correspondingbay phenolate ions.

Zu Acidität und Wasserstoffbrückenbindung von Hydroxyphenanthroperylenchinonen wie Fringelit D, Hypericin und Stentorin

Zusammenfassung Die stark erhöhte Acidität der bay-Hydroxylgruppen gegenüber jener derperi-Hydroxylgruppen von Fringelit D, Hypericin und Stentorin läßt sich auf der Basis einer vinylogen Carbonsäure verstehen und wurde auch durch semiempirische Rechnungen vom AM1-Typ erhärtet. Daten aus unabhängigen Experimenten wie Polarisationsspektroskopie, Lochbrennen und Isotopeneffekte sowie semiempirische AM1- undab initio-Rechnungen auf 6–31G Niveau belegen ein unsymmetrisches Wasserstoffbrückenbindungssystem sowohl für denperi-als auch denbay-Bereich der entsprechendenbay-Phenolationen.

     

Electrical conduction nature and phase transition in CaTi1−x FexO3−δ (x = 0.1–0.5)

Transport numbers for oxygen ions and protons are measured by an emf method in the system CaTi_1?x Fe_xO_3?δ (x = 0.1–0.5) in the oxidizing and reducing atmospheres in the temperature interval 973–1173 K. It is shown that the compounds under study are mixed ion-electron conductors at small iron concentrations and electron conductors, at large iron contents. The proton conductivity in the compounds is very poor and does not exceed 0.5% in air. On the basis of the temperature dependences of transport numbers for ions and linear expansion, it is established that the CaTi_0.9Fe_0.1O_3?δ system has a phase transition of a second order in a reducing environment at 1020–1050 K. The total and partial electron conductivities of CaTi_0.9Fe_0.1O_3?δ are studied as a function of the partial pressure of oxygen at 1173 K. The nature of electroconduction in CaTi_1?x Fe_xO_3?δ is discussed.     

THE THEORETICAL STUDY OF ADSORPTION OF METAL IONS ON CHITOSAN

1. INTRODUCTION Chitin, the most abundant natural amino polysaccharide and estimated to be produced annually almost as much as cellulose, is well known to consist of 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-β-D- glucose through α, β(1→4) linkage. Chitin is the major source of surface pollution in coastalareas. Chitosan is the N-deacetylated derivative of chitin and their structures are shown in Fig. 1.

Metal complexes of a homopolymer system containing diethanolamine side group: synthesis and dielectrical behaviors

In this work, 4-diethanolaminomethyl styrene (DEAMSt) monomer was prepared by modification of 4-chloromethyl styrene with diethanolamine. The homopolymerization of styrene modificated was carried out by free radical polymerization method at 60?°C in presence of 1,4-dioxane and AIBN. The metal complexes were prepared by reaction of the homopolymer used as ligand P(DEAMSt)L^l and Ni(II), Co(II) metal ions in presence of ethanol and dilute NaOH at 65?°C for 48?h in pH 6.

The structure of modificated monomer, homopolymer used as ligand and polymer-metal complexes were characterized by (FT-IR), ¹H-NMR, ¹³C-NMR, Raman spectroscopy tecniques, elemental analysis, SEM, XRD and magnetic measurements. Their geometric structures according to magnetic measurements of Co(II) and Ni(II) complexes were estimated that have a tetrahedral structure. P(DEAMSt)L^l polymer has a transition state between amorphous and crystalline, whereas metal complexes (Co(II) and Ni(II) are with a large crystal structure. The molecular weight of P(DEAMSt)L¹ homopolymer was determined by gel permeation chromatography (GPC). The glass transition temperature (Tg) of homopolymer was measured by differantial scanning calorimeter (DSC). The thermal behaviors of both ligand and polymer-metal complexes were investigated by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and (DTA). The results obtained were compared with each other. Then, the dielectrical measurements (dielectric constant, dielectric loss and conductivity) of the ligand and polymer-metal complexes were investigated as a function of temperature and frequency. The activation energies (Ea) of the ligand and metal complexes were determined from the conductivity measurements.     

Reaction of ethyl bromoacetate with substituted naphthoate ions

Rate constants for the reaction of ethyl bromoacetate with three series of substituted naphthoate ions have been measured in an acetone-water mixture (90% v/v). Using σ _p values rate constants at 30^o correlate well with the Hammett equation yielding ρ=−0.54, −0.19 and −0.25 for (4,1−), (6,1−) and (6,2−) series, respectively. Comparison of these ρ values with those of the reaction of phenacyl bromide reveals the failure of the reactivity-selectivity principle RSP in these reactions. Failure of RSP has been explained in terms of isoselective temperature.     

Relaxometric study of copper [15]metallacrown-5 gadolinium complexes derived from alpha-aminohydroxamic acids

Proton nuclear magnetic relaxation dispersion (NMRD) profiles were recorded between 0.24 mT and 1.4 T for lanthanum(III)- and gadolinium(III)-containing [15]metallacrown-5 complexes derived from alpha-aminohydroxamic acids and with copper(II) as the ring metal. The influence of the different R-groups on the proton relaxivity was investigated, and a linear relationship between the relaxivity and the molecular mass of the metallacrown complex was found. The selectivity of the metallacrown complexes was tested by transmetalation experiments with zinc(II) ions. The crystal structure of the copper [15]metallacrown-5 gadolinium complex with glycine hydroximate ligands is reported.     

The interaction of double-charged metal ions with monolayers and bilayers of phospholipids

Electrophoretic mobilities of hexadecane/water emulsions containing dimyristoyl-phosphatidylcholine (DMPC) or egg yolk lecithin (EYL) monolayers at the interface and those of liposomes prepared from the same lipids were measured as functions of the concentrations of Ca²⁺, Mn²⁺, Cu²⁺, and Ni²⁺ cations in the aqueous phase. The surface potentials, surface charge densities (σ), and the Langmuir adsorption isotherms for various distances from the charged surface to the slip plane (d) were calculated on the basis of the Gouy-Chapman theory for 1∶2 electrolytes and the values of ζ-potentials. The binding constants (K) and parametersd were determined under the assumption that the maximum σ values correspond to one ion per phospholipid molecule at the interface. In the case of DMPC, the ion binding constants (L mol⁻¹) at 25°C are 230 and 87 for Ca²⁺, 31.5 and 21 for Mn²⁺, 11 and 6 for Cu²⁺, and 7.5 and 5.3 for Ni²⁺ in liposomes and emulsions, respectively. The affinities of Cu²⁺ and Ni²⁺ ions for EYL monolayers and bilayers are lower than those for DMPC mono- and bilayers. Thed parameters for all ions are smaller than the radii of the hydrated ions. In the case of Ca²⁺, Cu²⁺, and Ni²⁺, thed values for mono- and bilayers are different. The differences in K values between monolayers and bilayers as well as those between DMPC and EYL mono- and bilayers can be attributed to the differences in the local environment and orientation of the interfacial phosphate groups in these systems.
