Laser ablation in analytical chemistry-a review

Laser ablation is becoming a dominant technology for direct solid sampling in analytical chemistry. Laser ablation refers to the process in which an intense burst of energy delivered by a short laser pulse is used to sample (remove a portion of) a material. The advantages of laser ablation chemical analysis include direct characterization of solids, no chemical procedures for dissolution, reduced risk of contamination or sample loss, analysis of very small samples not separable for solution analysis, and determination of spatial distributions of elemental composition. This review describes recent research to understand and utilize laser ablation for direct solid sampling, with emphasis on sample introduction to an inductively coupled plasma (ICP). Current research related to contemporary experimental systems, calibration and optimization, and fractionation is discussed, with a summary of applications in several areas.     

Molecular films of water-miscible ionic liquids formed on glassy carbon electrodes: characterization and electrochemical applications

This letter describes the formation and possible electrochemical applications of molecular films of water-miscible imidazolium-based ionic liquids (ILs) on glassy carbon (GC) electrodes. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and electrochemical results indicate that the water-miscible ILs used in this study can interact with the GC electrode and form molecular films on the electrode surface. The formed molecular films are found to possess striking electrochemical properties such as electrocatalysis toward ascorbic acid (AA) and the capability to facilitate direct electron transfer of horseradish peroxidase (HRP). This demonstration would pave the way for new electrochemical applications of water-miscible ILs and is envisaged to be useful for the investigation of the electrochemical properties of water-miscible ILs in aqueous media provided the same counteranion is used as the supporting electrolyte.     

The effect of B2O3 addition on the crystallization of amorphous TiO2-ZrO2 mixed oxide

The effect of B₂O₃ addition on the crystallization of amorphous TiO₂-ZrO₂ mixed oxide was investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetric and differential thermal analysis (TG/DTA). TiO₂-ZrO₂ mixed oxide was prepared by co-precipitation method with aqueous ammonia as the precipitation reagent. Boric acid was used as a source of boria, and boria contents varied from 2 to 20 wt%. The results indicate that the addition of small amount of boria (<8 wt%) hinders the crystallization of amorphous TiO₂-ZrO₂ into a crystalline ZrTiO₄ compound, while a larger amount of boria (?8 wt%) promotes the crystallization process. FT-IR spectroscopy and ¹¹B MAS NMR results show that tetrahedral borate species predominate at low boria loading, and trigonal borate species increase with increasing boria loading. Thus it is concluded that highly dispersed tetrahedral BO₄ units delay, while a build-up of trigonal BO₃ promote, the crystallization of amorphous TiO₂-ZrO₂ to form ZrTiO₄ crystals.     

An in situ STM study on the long-range surface restructuring of Au(1 1 1) in a non-chloroaluminumated ionic liquid

We report an in situ STM study of a potential-dependent long-range surface restructuring of Au(1 1 1) electrode in neat 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborates (BMIBF₄) ionic liquid. Au(1 1 1) undergoes a significant long-range surface restructuring upon cathodic excursion to −1.0 V vs. Pt quasi-reference. The restructuring involves the formation of tiny pits, which then develops into a stable worm-like network with an average width of the network grids 2 nm. Electrochemical annealing occurs at the cathodic limit with the presence of a reduction product of cation BMI⁺. A smooth surface is recovered with the appearance of the typical (√3 × 22) reconstruction of Au(1 1 1). The surface restructuring is reestablished upon anodic excursion to −1.3 V after the adsorbed reduction product is oxidized. The long-range surface restructuring phenomenon is tentatively explained as a result of partial charge transfer to the weakly adsorbed BMI⁺, which reduces the metal–metal cohesive energy. In addition, the synergetic effect of the counter anion BF₄⁻ may also be involved. The results provide a knowledge of Au(1 1 1) electrode behavior in the neat ionic liquid and are beneficial to understanding in situ STM results involving surface morphological changes in such a media.     

Ferromagnetic anomaly associated with the antiferromagnetic transitions in (donor)[Ni(mnt)2]-type charge-transfer salts

Three newly prepared [Ni(mnt)2] complexes, (HMTTF)[Ni(mnt)2], (ChSTF)[Ni(mnt)2], and (DBTTF)2[Ni(mnt)2], are reported (DBTTF = dibenzotetrathiafulvalene, ChSTF = 2,3-cyclohexylenedithio-1,4-dithia-5,8-diselanafulvalene, HMTTF = bis(trimethylene)-tetrathiafulvalene, and mnt = maleonitrile dithiolate). The former two compounds have usual DA-type (D = donor, A = acceptor) mixed stacks, whereas the DBTTF complex has DDDDAA-type 6-fold columns. These compounds are electrical insulators, but the HMTTF and ChSTF complexes exhibit chiT minima at 16 and 55 K, respectively, followed by chiT peaks at 8 and 16 K. Below these temperatures the ESR signal disappears, indicating antiferromagnetic transitions. The origin of the ferromagnetic interaction is explained either from the difference of the g values between the donor and the anion or from the intrinsic ferromagnetic interaction of the [Ni(mnt)2] anions.

Two Novel Antifungal Saponins from Tibetan Herbal Medicine Clematis tangutica

Antifungal assay-guided isolation of the ethanol extract of the aerial parts of Clematis tangutica yielded two novel triterpene saponins. Their structures were determined to be 3-O-α-L-arabinopyranosyl hederagenin 28-O-α-L-rhamnopyranosyl ester (1) and 3-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→4)-α-L-arabinopyranosyl hederagenin 28-O-α-L-rhamnopyranosyl ester (2) on the basis of spectral data and chemical reactions.
