Fluorescence ratiometric pH sensor prepared from covalently immobilized porphyrin and benzothioxanthene

A fluorescence ratiometric sensor for pH determination is described in this paper. The sensor incorporated the pH-sensitive dye meso-5,10,15,20-tetra-(4-allyloxyphenyl)porphyrin (TAPP) as an indicator and a pH-insensitive dye N-(2-methacryloxyethyl)benzo[k,l]thioxanthene-3,4-dicarboximide (MBTD), a benzothioxanthene derivative, as a reference for fluorescence ratiometric measurement. To prevent leakage of the dyes, both were photocopolymerized with acrylamide, hydroxyethyl methacrylate, and triethylene glycol dimethacrylate on the silanized glass surface. The reproducibility and response time of the prepared sensor were sufficient. Most common coexisting inorganic ions and organic compounds did not interfere with pH sensing. In the acidic pH range from 1.5 to 5.0 the fluorescence intensity ratio of the two dyes varied linearly as a function of pH. The sensing membrane was found to have a lifetime of at least one month. The sensor was applied to the analysis of waste water and artificial samples.

Preparation and surface properties of latexes with fluorine enriched in the shell by silicon monomer crosslinking

A series of core-shell acrylic copolymer latexes containing fluorine enriched in the shell have been prepared by emulsion polymerization of a variety of hydrocarbon monomers with (perfluoroalkyl)methyl methacrylate and vinyltriethoxysilicone. In the presence of a reactive anionic and a long chain anionic-nonionic emulsifier, the core-shell latexes were prepared and characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and tapping-mode atomic force microscopy (AFM). From AFM and contact angle measurements, it was observed that the resulting fluorine and silicon-containing acrylic copolymers with surface energy as low as 15.5 mN/m formed a dense and gradient film containing a surface layer with high a fluorine content, and that the fluorinated particles can be fixed on the surface due to the crosslinking reaction of multi-functional silicon monomer even though the fluorinated carbon number was not enough to crystallize.     

A novel method of the separation/preconcentration and determination of trace molybdenum(VI) in water samples using microcrystalline triphenylmethane loaded with salicyl fluorone

It is the first time that triphenylmethane was used as an adsorbent to preconcentrate and separate trace amount of molybdenum in water samples. The effects of different parameters, such as acidity, stirring time and various metal ions, the amounts of triphenylmethane and salicyl fluorine, etc. on the enrichment yield of molybdenum have been studied to optimize the experimental conditions. Under the optimum conditions, molybdenum can be adsorbed on the surface of microcrystalline triphenylmethane loaded with salicyl fluorone by the intermolecular action strength. The possible reaction mechanism for the enrichment of molybdenum was discussed in detail in this paper. Mo(VI) can be completely separated from Pb(II), Co(II), Cu(II), Cr(III), Ni(II), Hg(II), Zn(II), Cd(II), Fe(III) and Al(III) in the solution. The proposed method was successfully applied to the determination of trace amount of molybdenum in various water samples by spectrophotometry after preconcentration using microcrystalline triphenylmethane. The preconcentration factor is from 83 (500 ml water sample was enriched to 6.0 ml) to 166 (1000 ml water sample was enriched to 6.0 ml). The detection limit is 1.3 × 10⁻⁵ mg l⁻¹ and the linearity is maintained in the concentration range 3.8 × 10⁻³ to 0.36 mg l⁻¹ with a correlation coefficient of 0.9998. The recoveries are in the range of 93.5-104%. The relative standard deviation is 1.8-2.9%. Analytical results obtained with this novel method are very satisfactory.     

配合物[Li(THF)_2]_2(μ—Cl)_4[(η~5—CH_3C_5H_4)Nd·THF]的合成及其晶体结构

环戊二烯基希土氯化物是一类合成希土有机配合物的重要前身。尽管在1980年前没能成功地合成含轻希土元素的这类配合物,但目前已发现,采用具有较大体积的取代环戊二烯做配体,如C_5Me_5H,C_5H_3〔Si(CH_3)_3〕_2H,C_5Me_4C_3H_7H和桥联的配体(C_5H_4)_2(CH_2)_3H_2都可得到相应的取代环戊二烯基轻希土氯化物。控制LnCl_3和CpNa的反应摩尔比也可以成功地得到这类轻希土的环戊二烯基氯化物。

Solvation of acylium fragment ions in electrospray ionization quadrupole ion trap and Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry

In electrospray ionization (ESI) quadrupole ion trap and Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry, certain fragment ions (e.g. acylium ions) generated either during the ion transportation process (in the source interface region) or in the ion trap are found to undergo ion--molecule reactions with ESI solvent molecules (water, acetonitrile and aliphatic alcohols) to form adduct species. These unexpected solvated fragment ions severely complicate the interpretation of mass spectrometic data. High-resolution accurate mass measurements are important in establishing the elemental compositions of these adduct species and preventing erroneous data interpretation.     

Linear response theory of ion excitation for Fourier transform mass spectrometry

A linear relation between the voltage density or magnitude spectrum of an excitation waveform and the corresponding ion orbital radius is derived for Fourier transform mass spectrometry (FTMS). This provides a theoretical foundation for the stored waveform inverse Fourier transform excitation method. The result is also useful for the design of optimal excitation signals as well as for the estimation of the kinetic energy of ions after an excitation event in collision-induced dissociation experiments. When the linear relation is applied to two-dimensional FTMS excitation, an analytical expression for ion speed modulation is obtained.     

Crystalline Morphology and Polymorphic Phase Transitions in Electrospun Nylon 6 Nanofibers

Uniform nylon 6 nanofibers with diameters around 200 nm were prepared by electrospinning. Polymorphic phase transitions and crystal orientation of nylon 6 in unconfined (i.e., as-electrospun) and a high T(g) (340 degrees C) polyimide confined nanofibers were studied. Similar to melt-spun nylon 6 fibers, electrospun nylon 6 nanofibers also exhibited predominant, meta-stable gamma crystalline form, and the gamma-crystal (chain) axes preferentially oriented parallel to the fiber axis. Upon annealing above 150 degrees C, gamma-form crystals gradually melted and recrystallized into the thermodynamically stable alpha-form crystals, which ultimately melted at 220 degrees C. Release of surface tension accompanied this melt-recrystallization process, as revealed by differential scanning calorimetry. For confined nanofibers, both the melt-recrystallization and surface tension release processes were substantially depressed; gamma-form crystals did not melt and recrystallize into alpha-form crystals until 210 degrees C, only 10 degrees C below the T(m) at 220 degrees C. After complete melting of nano-confined crystals at 240 degrees C and recrystallization at 100 degrees C, only alpha-form crystals oriented perpendicular to the nanofiber axis were obtained. In the polyimide-confined nanofibers, the Brill transition (from the monoclinic alpha-form to a high temperature monoclinic form) was observed at 180-190 degrees C, which was at least 20 degrees C higher than that in unconfined nylon 6 at approximately 160 degrees C. This, again, was attributed to the confinement effect.
