Direct Identification of the Carbon Skeleton of Organic Compounds using Double Quantum Coherence 13C-NMR Spectroscopy. The INADEQUATE Pulse Sequence

NMR spectroscopy plays an important part in the determination of the structures of organic compounds. The parameters of importance here are the chemical shifts of the ¹H and ¹³C nuclei and the spin-spin interactions both between ¹H nuclei and between ¹H and ¹³C nuclei. Couplings between ¹³C nuclei were almost completely neglected until a few years ago, since they were extremely difficult to observe because of the low natural abundance of ¹³C. However, it is these couplings which afford information directly on the carbon-carbon connectivities in the molecule. It is now possible to use a special NMR pulse sequence to make these couplings more readily visible: the result of using this sequence is a ¹³C-NMR spectrum from which the carbon skeleton concerned can be directly read off. Two-dimensional spectra in particular are very easy to evaluate. The pulse sequence involved, which bears the somewhat puzzling name INADEQUATE, produces double-quantum coherences from which the NMR signals of the coupled carbon nuclei can be obtained. In this article the principle of double-quantum coherence is described and a number of examples for the application of the INADEQUATE pulse sequences to problems in synthetic organic chemistry, biosynthesis and natural products chemistry are presented; in addition, the possibility of applying the INADEQUATE method to other nuclei is considered.

Electroreduction of the antifouling agent TCMTB and its electroanalytical determination in tannery wastewaters

The electrochemical reduction of antifouling agent 2-thiocyanomethylthiobenzothiazole (TCMTB) was investigated by cyclic and pulse differential voltammetry. The irreversible electrode reduction of TCMTB proceeded by ECEC reaction mechanism by two electrons transfer with one irreversible wave. Upon the basis of electrochemical evidence, the electrodic reaction mechanism was suggested to formation of mercaptobenzothiazole (MTB) in solution.Subsequently, a pulse differential method is described for the formation of TCMTB based on this electroreduction. Having been obtained a detection limit of 1.0 × 10⁻⁷ mol L⁻¹ and recovery to 98% to concentration of 2.0 × 10⁻⁶ mol L⁻¹. Therefore, the proposed method in this study is practical, sensitive and accurate for the analysis of TCMTB in tannery wastewater samples.

Synthesis of SBA-15/carbon composite with an ink-bottle-like pore structure by a novel pulse CVD technique

A novel and easy post modification method, pulse chemical vapor deposition (pulse CVD), was developed to tailor the pore-opening of SBA-15 while largely keeping its surface area and pore volume. By using acetylene as carbon precursor and nitrogen as carrier gas, the pore-mouth of SBA-15 was effectively reduced from 8.1 nm to 5.1 nm within 5 min while maintaining the pore body at 8.1 nm. This ink-bottle-structured SBA-15/carbon composite only losses 12% BET specific surface area and 16% total pore volume, respectively. The SBA-15/carbon composite is highly hexagonally ordered and has similar particle morphology as the original SBA-15. The effect of three pore modification factors—the number of cycles of pulse CVD, the ratio of acetylene/nitrogen and the feeding time of carbon precursor, on the final pore structure of the SBA-15/carbon composite is also studied.     

Reactions of oxidizing radicals with 2- and 3-aminopyridines: a pulse radiolysis study

Reactions of OH radicals and some one-electron oxidants with 2-aminopyridine (2-AmPy) and 3-aminopyridine (3-AmPy) were studied in aqueous solutions using pulse radiolysis technique. The OH adduct of 2-AmPy at pH 9 has an absorption maximum at 360 nm along with a weak absorption band in the visible region and was found to be reactive with oxygen. The rate constant for its reaction with O₂ was determined to be 1.0×10⁸ dm³ mol⁻¹ s⁻¹. At pH 4 also, the OH adduct of 2-AmPy has an absorption band at 360 nm. However, there are differences in the absorption at other wavelengths. From the plot of ΔOD vs. pH at 340 nm, the pK_a of the OH adduct was determined to be 6.5. Among the specific oxidants, only SO₄^−√ radicals were able to oxidize 2-AmPy. In the case of 3-aminopyridine (3-AmPy), the transient species formed by OH radical reaction at pH 9 has an absorption maximum at 410 nm with shoulder bands on both the sides. Its absorption spectrum at pH 4 was different indicating the existence of a pK value for the OH adduct. pK_a of 3-AmPy-OH radical adduct species was evaluated to be 5.7. This adduct species was also found to be reactive with oxygen (k=7.6×10⁶ dm³ mol⁻¹ s⁻¹). Specific one-electron oxidants like N₃^√, Br₂^−√ C₂^−√ and SO₄^−√ were able to oxidize 3-AmPy indicating that it is easier to oxidize 3-AmPy as compared to 2-AmPy.

Using the ns pulse radolysis, we studied the characteristic absorption spectrum and kinetic decay of cytosine anion radical (Cyt-). Results showed that the characteristic absorption of Cyt- was located at λ=355±5 nm, and decayed following the first order kinetics with τ1/2=265 ns at pH=7.0. The decay became slower and τ1/2 rapidly rised with the increment of pH value, Cyt- protonated at C6 in acidic solution, and the characteristic absorption was located at λ=310±5 nm, and decayed following the second order kinetics: Cyt- protonated at N3 in aqueous solution of pH≥7, and the characteristic absorption was located at λ=295±5 nm, and decayed following the second order kinetics.     

兔肝金属硫蛋白稀水溶液的脉冲辐解

金属硫蛋白(Metallothioneins,简称MTs)是一类富含巯基和金属的低分子量蛋白质,广泛存在于哺乳动物中.MTs 通常含61个氨基酸,其中20个为半胱氨酸,不含芳香族氯基酸和组氨酸,因此在280nm 附近没有吸收峰.MTs 通常结合7个Cd 或zn,20个巯基全部去质子化并参与配位,从而形成牢固的结构域.有证据表明MTs 可能有储存Zn 和Cu 的作用,同时能减轻重金属对动物细胞的毒性,但其生理功能一直不很清楚.近几年的研究表明,MTs 能增强机体对电离辐射的耐受力、修复DNA 损伤,这可能与MTs 中含有丰富的巯基有关.体外实验测得k_(MT/OH)=10~(12)dm~3·mol~(-1)·s~(-1),k_(MT/O(?))=5×10~5dm~3·mol~(-1)·s~(-1),但其辐解机理尚不清楚.本工作利用脉冲辐解技术研究了免肝MT-I 稀水溶液辐解时的中间过程,并作了初步的解释.     

One-electron oxidation of toluidine blue. A pulse radiolysis study

The one-electron oxidation of toluidine blue by specific oxidising radicals such as Cl ₂ ⁻ , Tl(II), N₃, Br ₂ ⁻ etc. has been studied by employing the pulse radiolysis technique. The Br ₂ ⁻ radical was found to be less efficient in oxidising toluidine blue as compared to Cl ₂ ⁻ ., Tl⁺² and N₃. The semioxidised species exhibited only onepK _a indicating the presence of two conjugate acid-base forms whose spectral and kinetic features were evaluated. Reaction of OH radicals with the dye gave rise to a transient species which exhibited spectral and kinetic features different from that of the semioxidised species indicating that the mode of reaction of OH is different.
