Analysis of flavonoids in <Emphasis Type="Italic">Ginkgo biloba</Emphasis> L. and its phytopharmaceuticals by capillary electrophoresis with electrochemical detection

A high-performance capillary electrophoretic (CE) method with electrochemical detection (ED) has been developed for determination of the pharmacologically active flavonoids in Ginkgo biloba L. and phytopharmaceuticals containing its extract. Epicatechin, catechin, rutin, apigenin, luteolin, and quercetin are important flavonoids in this plant. Operated in a wall-jet configuration, a 300 micro m diameter carbon-disk electrode was used as working electrode with good response to the six analytes at +1000 mV (relative to the SCE). Under the optimum conditions, the analytes were separated within 22 min in a borax buffer (pH 9.0). Excellent linearity was obtained over two orders of magnitude and detection limits (S/N=3) ranged from 1.4 x 10(-7) to 5.0 x 10(-7) g mL(-1) for all six analytes. The method was successfully used for assay of Ginkgo biloba L. and its phytopharmaceuticals after a relatively simple extraction procedure; the results obtained were satisfactory.     

Carbon-13 spectra of some tetrahydropyridines. The structure of the tetrahydropyridines from 3,5-lutidine 1-oxide and mercaptans in acetic anhydride

The reaction of 3,5-lutidine 1-oxide ( 1 ) with t-butyl mereaptan in acetic anhydride, with or without triethylamine, was reinvestigated. There was obtained 2-t-butylthio-3,.5-lutidine as the major product, a small quantity of 3-(t-bulylthio)methyl-5-picoline, 1-acetyl-2,3-diacetoxy-3,5-dirnethyl-6-t-butylthio-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (which represents a structure revision) and l-acetyl-2,6-dihydroxy-3-t-butylthio-3,5-dimethyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine. A similar reaction of 1 with 1-adamantyl mercaptan furnished 2-(l-adamantylthio)-3,5-lutidine and 1-acetyl-2,3-diacetoxy-3,5-dimethyl-6-(1-adamantylthio)-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine. The structures of these new tetrahydropyridines were established primarily by carbon-13 nmr spectra.

Triorganosilyl Ethers of Benzaldehyde,m-Methoxybenzaldehyde and Anisoles

Synthesis of six new triorganosiloxybenzaldehydes, two m-methoxy-(triorganosiloxy)benzaldehydes, and seven methoxy(triorganosiloxy)benzenes are reported. From comparison of the stability of these compounds in the atmosphere, it is concluded that formyl group shows unfavorable influence and methoxy group shows favorable influence on the stability of these compounds. The oposite influences of these two groups on phenoxysilane linkage seems to connect with the oposite directiones of inductive effect of formyl group and resonance effect of methoxy group on the benzene ring.     

Voltammetric Detector for Liquid Chromatography: Determination of Triclosan in Rabbit Urine and Serum

A flow-electrolytic cell containing a strand of carbon fibers has been designed and characterized for use in a voltammetric detector for high-performance liquid chromatography. The detector was used for determination of triclosan (2,4,4-trichloro-2-hydroxydiphenyl ether) in rabbit serum and urine. Analysis of rabbit serum and urine 1 day and 1 to 5 days, respectively, after ingestion of oral triclosan revealed that the concentration of triclosan was higher than for control serum and urine. The concentration reached maximum levels after 6 h and 34 h or 44 h in serum and urine, respectively. When triclosan was determined in rabbit samples with the method proposed the results obtained were comparable with those obtained by high-performance liquid chromatography with ultraviolet detection.     

稀土掺杂的(K, Sr)Cl·SiO2复合凝胶的荧光性能

采用sol gel法制备了单掺铕及共掺铕、铈的(K,Sr)Cl·SiO2复合凝胶,研究了复合凝胶的荧光性能。根据荧光测试结果,复合凝胶中,Eu3+在没有还原剂的作用下,可以与基质作用形成还原态的Eu2+,复合凝胶表现出相应的Eu2+荧光性能;研究认为,Ce3+,Eu3+共掺杂时,复合凝胶激发光谱与发射光谱峰位基本不变,但强度有所不同。330nm处的激发光谱明显增强,且发射光谱随Ce3+的掺杂量增加而增强。当Ce3+掺杂浓度为3.0%(原子分数)时,复合凝胶具有最大的荧光发射强度,表明Ce3+具有很好的敏化作用。在Ce3+,Eu3+共掺杂复合凝胶体系中,复合凝胶荧光强度增大的原因既可能是电子转移过程,也可能是Ce3+→Eu2+的能量传递过程所致。

Characterization and separation of Al13 species using gel-filtration chromatography

A polyaluminum chloride (PAC) sample was prepared using a slow alkaline titration method. The Bio-Gel P-100 gel column chromatographic technique was used to separate and characterize the various forms of aluminum present in the prepared PAC solution. The effluents from a gel column were monitored using online chemical method: Al-Ferron timed complexation spectrophotometry and by ²⁷Al nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. Effects of different experimental conditions such as eluent flow rate, ionic strength and pH on separation of Al₁₃ were investigated. Experimental results indicated that molecule size exclusion was not the only parameter affecting the column chromatographic separation efficiency of Al₁₃ but molecule charge as well. Reducing the eluent flow rate, increasing the ionic strength and suitable pH resulted in increase in the separation efficiency. Experimental results clearly indicated that by varying the experimental conditions, it is possible to produce pure Al₁₃ species using a gel column chromatographic technique.
