Spectral and Indo-Molecular Orbital Studies of n →∗ Transitions in Symmetric Diazines

Abstract

Experimental and theoretical (INDO-MO) studies of n → transitions have been carried out for seven symmetric diazines. In all cases, there is very good agreement between the theoretical predictions and experimental observations on the symmetry of the lowest energy n→? singlet state.     

Variations on selective separability in non-regular spaces

We study various variations on selective separability in non-regular topological spaces. We use the notions of θ-closure and θ-density to define selective versions of θ-separability. These properties are also related to topological games.     

Synthesis and investigation of dual pH‐ and temperature‐responsive behaviour of poly[2‐(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate]‐grafted gold nanoparticles

Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) were synthesized by reduction of chloroauric acid (HAuCl₄) aqueous solution with hydrazine monohydrate. The AuNPs were immediately treated with cysteamine to obtain amine‐functionalized nanoparticles (Au‐NH₂). The reaction of Au‐NH₂ with epichlorohydrin and subsequent treatment with sodium hydroxide gave epoxidized AuNPs (Au‐EP). Then, thiol‐capped AuNPs (Au‐SH) were synthesized by reaction of Au‐EP with cysteamine. A ‘grafting to’ approach was utilized to graft bromine‐terminated poly(N ,N ′‐dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate), synthesized via aqueous atom transfer radical polymerization, with various molecular weights (6280, 25 800, 64 200 and 87 600 g mol⁻¹) onto Au‐SH to obtain Au‐P1, Au‐P2, Au‐P3 and Au‐P4 samples, respectively. All samples were exposed to temperature and pH variations, and Z‐average diameter was monitored using dynamic light scattering. According to the results, polymer‐grafted nanoparticles collapsed at lower temperatures with increasing solution pH for all molecular weight ranges due to deprotonation of tertiary amine groups. However, higher molecular weight polymers were more sensitive to pH variation especially in alkaline media. Also, a high degree of agglomeration was observed for Au‐P4 nanoparticles in alkaline media on increasing the temperature to 55 and 65 °C.

Electrochemical Simultaneous Sensing of Melatonin,Dopamine and Acetaminophen at Platinum Doped and Decorated Alpha Iron Oxide

Simultaneous sensing of dopamine (DA), acetaminophen (AP) and melatonin (MEL) was made by electrochemical method as the drugs melatonin and acetaminophen interact with dopamine in brain to induce neuro disorders. The glassy carbon electrode surface was modified with un‐doped α‐ Fe₂O₃, platinum doped Fe₂O₃ (dPtFe₂O₃), Pt decorated Fe₂O₃ (sPtFe₂O₃) and doped and decorated Fe₂O₃ (sdPtFe₂O₃) nano particles that are synthesized by co‐precipitation method in presence of polyethylene glycol for the first time. These particles were characterized using Ultra‐Violet Visible (UV‐Vis), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X‐ray diffractometry (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), thermo gravimetric analysis (TGA) and electrochemical techniques. The sdPtFe₂O₃ showed the highest catalytic activity than the dPtFe₂O₃, sPtFe₂O₃ and un‐doped α‐ Fe₂O₃ with well separated voltammetric peaks for DA and AP in presence of MEL. This is attributed to higher surface hydration effects of the sdPtFe₂O₃, dPtFe₂O₃ and sPtFe₂O₃ than the un‐doped Fe₂O₃ which plays a vital role in enhancing the melatonin sensing in presence of dopamine and acetaminophen. Linear ranges and lowest detection limits for all three analytes were increased by 10 times for the sdPtFe₂O₃ compared to other Fe₂O₃ modified electrodes. The sensor is validated using commercially available pharmaceutical drugs used in therapeutics.     

Fortschritte in der Auswertung von Markierungsversuchen an dynamischen Systemen

In einem dynamischen System vollziehen sich kontinuierlich ablaufende Stoffwandlungen, deren Ausgangsstoffe dem System ständig zufließen und deren Folgeprodukte das System kontinuierlich verlassen. Es wird das Verhalten eines solchen Systems mit drei Pools bei Markierungsexperimenten untersucht. Die Ergebnisse dieser mathematischen Untersuchungen werden auf die Erforschung des Stickstoffstoffwechsels laktierender Rinder mit Hilfe des stabilen Isotops ¹⁵N angewandt. In diesem Fall enthält das dynamische System zwei kleine stoffwechselaktive Pools und einen großen, niclit intensiv am Stoffwechsel beteiligten Körpereiweiβ-Pool.     

Autoradiographische Untersuchungen zur Vermisechung von Baustoffkomponenten

Die Feinverteilung des Kalkes im Kalk-Quarzsand-Gemisch ist eine notwendige Bedingung fur hohe erreichbare Festigkeit der Silikatbaustoffe. Vergleiehende Untersuchungen über die Kalkverteilung an neutronenaktivierten feinkörnigen Baustoffproben mit Hilfe von Szintillationsmessungen des ⁴⁷Ca-Gehaltes und mittels autoradiographischer Darstellung der Kalkverteilung in kleinen Prüfkörpern unter Ausnützung der relativ weichen β-Strahlung des ⁴⁵Ca ergaben, daβ die autoradiographischen Aussagen über die Homogenität der Proben am besten mit den Festigkeitsiwerten der Prüfkörper korrespondieren.     

Scaling limits of coupled continuous time random walks and residual order statistics through marked point processes

A continuous time random walk (CTRW) is a random walk in which both spatial changes represented by jumps and waiting times between the jumps are random. The CTRW is coupled if a jump and its preceding or following waiting time are dependent random variables (r.v.), respectively. The aim of this paper is to explain the occurrence of different limit processes for CTRWs with forward- or backward-coupling in Straka and Henry (2011) [37] using marked point processes. We also establish a series representation for the different limits. The methods used also allow us to solve an open problem concerning residual order statistics by LePage (1981) [20].
