Multivariate resolution of NMR labile signals by means of hard- and soft-modelling methods

One of the difficulties frequently encountered when studying acid–base equilibria with NMR spectroscopy is the labile behaviour of the measured signal, which hinders the application of bilinear multivariate data analysis methods. In this work, a mathematical transformation is proposed for the conversion of NMR labile signals to inert signals, which make possible the application of multivariate data analysis methods, based on bilinear data models. The procedure has been applied to the analysis of NMR data corresponding to the acid–base equilibria of nucleotides dCMP and dGMP. Both hard-modelling (EQUISPEC) and soft-modelling (MCR-ALS) approaches have been applied for the analysis and resolution of transformed bilinear NMR data matrices.     

聚(St-DVB)型整体柱的制备及其对蛋白质的色谱分离性能

苯乙烯(St)为单体,二乙烯基苯(DVB)为交联剂,在致孔剂甲苯和十二醇存在下,直接以Ф4.6×50mm色谱柱管为模具,同时在整个反应过程中通过氩气对反应混合物施加一个恒定的压力,通过原位聚合制备了聚(苯乙烯-二乙烯基苯)(PSD)型整体柱。在聚合过程中对反应混合物施加一定的压力,使制备的整体柱表面光滑无凹痕现象,并且使柱子的两头平整不凹陷,有利于提高柱效。本文对整体柱的孔结构及其对蛋白质的分离性能进行了研究。实验结果表明,整体柱内部含有大量类似渠道的大孔,孔径为2μm~3μm,在流速为5ml/min时,背压为7MPa。而且流速对色谱分离效率的影响小,流速从1ml/min增大到3ml/min时,牛血清白蛋白和溶菌酶这两种蛋白质的总分离效能指标K1的值基本保持不变,保持在3.35左右,说明可以通过提高流速实现蛋白质的快速分离。

An Improvement of IAP OGCM for the Pacific Ocean Circulation and Its Simulated Results

Based on the oceanic CCM with standard stratification subtraction but without the rigid-lid approximation designed in Institute of Atmospheric Physics (IAP OGCM) and its numerical modelings for the large-scale ocean circulation, a numerical model for the Pacific Ocean is developed with higher resolution (2.5°×2° in the longitude and latitude, 8 layers in the vertical),the realistic coastline geometry,the smoothed bottom topography and the Richardson number dependent vertical mixing parameterization.The splitting time integration scheme of the barotropic and baroclinic modes is adopted in the model. The numerical simulation under the annual mean atmospheric forcing shows that the model performance is improved substantially compared with the previous low resolution version.This free surface model,in particular, successfully simulates the well-known ridge-trough structure in the sea level, i.e. the equatorial trough, the equatorial ridge near 3°N, the north countercurrent trough between 8°N and 10°N,     

Chiral molecular glass: synthesis and characterization of enantiomerically pure thiophene-based [7]helicene

Synthesis of thiophene-based [7]helicenes, which are functionalized for both design of organic chiral glasses with strong chiroptical properties and for further homologation to higher [n]helicenes, is reported. The key synthetic transformations are kinetic resolution of the intermediate diketone and the annelation step forming the center benzene ring by means of an intramolecular McMurry reaction. Based upon X-ray crystallographic determinations of the absolute configurations for (+)-enantiomers of the diketone and the [7]helicene, stereochemical correlation between the (R) axial chirality of the diketone and the (M) helical chirality of the [7]helicene is established. One such enantiopure trimethylsilyl-substituted [7]helicene possesses enchanced chiroptical properties and forms a chiral molecular glass.     

Isoperichoric focusing field-flow fractionation and thin layer isoperichoric focusing based on coupling of gradient generated by primary field with secondary field action: general principles and performances

The primary field forces can generate spatially oriented gradient of the effective property of a continuum or pseudo-continuum fluid (carrier liquid). When this gradient is coupled with the action of a secondary field of identical or different nature the isoperichoric focused zones of the dispersed species can appear. Consequently, they can be separated according to differences responding to the property gradient of the carrier liquid. This concept can be applied under static (non-flow) conditions in thin layer focusing as well as under dynamic conditions with the elution due to the carrier liquid flow in focusing field-flow fractionation. The gradient established by the action of the primary field and the concentration distribution of the isoperichoric focused zone formed by the coupled effect of the gradient and of the primary or secondary field are described theoretically. The rigorous relationship describing the shape of the focused zone is compared with the approximate solutions. The performances of the proposed principle were evaluated by model calculations. Potential experimental configurations considering the implementation of the static and dynamic conditions are discussed. The generalized isoperichoric focusing theory can be applied to describe the particular processes operating in analytical and preparative focusing separations of the particles of various, but especially of biological origin.

X-ray structure and circular dichroism of pure rotamers of bis[guanosine-5'-monophosphate(-1)](N,N,N',N'-tetramethylcyclohexyl-1,2-diamine)platinum(II) complexes that have R,R and S,S configurations at the asymmetric diamine

The use of a sterically hindered diamine ligand (Me(4)DACH) has allowed for the first time, the isolation and characterization, both in the solid state (X-ray crystallography) and in solution (circular dichroism), of pure DeltaHT rotamers of [Pt(Me(4)dach)(5'-GMP)(2)] (compounds 1 and 2 for R,R and S,S configurations of the Me(4)DACH ligand, respectively). Comparison of the CD spectra obtained for each rotamer, which differ only in the chirality of the Me(4)DACH ligand (R,R or S,S) or in the chirality of the HT conformation (Delta or Lambda), allowed us to conclude that, in the 200-350 nm range, the contributions to the overall CD spectrum that stem from diamine chirality and diamine-induced chirality of platinum d--d transitions or from sugar chirality are negligible relative to the exciton chiral coupling that occurs for pi-pi* transitions of the cis guanines. Accurate molecular structures of 1.10 D(2)O and 2.14 D(2)O (conventional crystallographic agreement indexes R(1) convergent to 2.07 % and 2.18 %, respectively) revealed that the crystallized rotamers have a DeltaHT conformation that is in agreement with all previously reported X-ray structures of [Pt(diamine)(nucleos(t)ide)(2)] complexes. This conformation allows the 5'-phosphate to be located in proximity to the Me(4)DACH ligand so that (P)O...HC(N) hydrogen-bond interactions exists in both complexes. For both structures, the canting of the guanine planes on the coordination plane is right-handed (R; canting angle (Phi) of 80.9 degrees and 73.2 degrees, respectively); this indicates that the canting direction is driven by the HT conformation chirality (Delta for both compounds) and not by the chirality of the carrier ligand (different for the two compounds). Density functional theory analysis of the conformational space as a function of Phi indicated a good agreement between the computed and experimental structures. The increase in energy for Phi values below 65 degrees and 55 degrees (for 1 and 2, respectively) is mainly due to the short intramolecular contacts between C(8)H and the cis N-Me groups on the same side of the platinum coordination plane.
