Thermal stability of poly(styrene) containing phosphorus in the mainchain

For many applications poly(styrene) must be treated to reduce its flammability. This is usually done by incorporating a flame retardant additive, usually an organohalogen compound, into the formulation as the polymer is being processed. A potentially very efficient way of introducing flame retardance would be to incorporate a suitable structural unit directly into the polymer. This can be done by using 2,4,4,5,5-pentaphenyl-1,3,2-dioxaphospholane as an initiator for styrene polymerization. The strained carbon–carbon bond of the phospholane undergoes homolysis at moderate temperatures to generate a diradical which initiates polymerization. The resulting polymer contains an O–P–O unit in the mainchain. Thermogravimetry indicates that the thermal stability of the polymer is quite comparable to that of poly(styrene) generated by conventional methods.     

Recent advances in the activation of boron and silicon reagents for stereocontrolled allylation reactions

Despite the popularity of boron and silicon allylation reagents in stereocontrolled synthesis, they suffer from a number of inherent limitations that have slowed down their development as synthetic tools for nucleophilic additions to carbonyl compounds and imine derivatives. These limitations are the low reactivity and diastereoselectivity of allyl trialkylsilane reagents, and the lack of catalytic systems for the activation and substoichiometric control of enantioselectivity in the additions of allyl boron reagents. To develop more efficient and general methods for the control of absolute stereochemistry in the resulting homoallylic alcohols, new approaches aimed at solving the problem of activation of allylic boron and silicon reagents are needed. This Minireview describes a number of recent approaches that have been devised to address this problem.     

Use of D–T-produced fast neutrons for in vivo body composition analysis: a reference method for nutritional assessment in the elderly

Body composition has become the main outcome of many nutritional intervention studies including osteoporosis, malnutrition, obesity, AIDS, and aging. Traditional indirect body composition methods developed with healthy young adults do not apply to the elderly or diseased. Fast neutron activation (for N and P) and neutron inelastic scattering (for C and O) are used to assess in vivo elements characteristic of specific body compartments. Non-bone phosphorus for muscle is measured by the ³¹P(n,)²⁸Al reaction, and nitrogen for protein via the ¹⁴N(n,2n)¹³N fast neutron reaction. Inelastic neutron scattering is used to measure total body carbon and oxygen. Body fat is derived from carbon after correcting for contributions from protein, bone, and glycogen. Carbon-to-oxygen ratio (C/O) is used to measure the distribution of fat and lean tissue in the body and to monitor small changes of lean mass. A sealed, D–T neutron generator is used for the production of fast neutrons. Carbon and oxygen mass and their ratio are measured in vivo at a radiation exposure of less than 0.06 mSv. Gamma-ray spectra are collected using large BGO detectors and analyzed for the 4.43 MeV state of carbon and 6.13 MeV state of oxygen, simultaneously with the irradiation. P and N analysis by delayed fast neutron activation is performed by transferring the patient to a shielded room equipped with an array of NaI(Tl) detectors. A combination of measurements makes possible the assessment of the quality of fat-free mass. The neutron generator system is used to evaluate the efficacy of new treatments, to study mechanisms of lean tissue depletion with aging, and to investigate methods for preserving function and quality of life in the elderly. It is also used as a reference method for the validation of portable instruments of nutritional assessment.     

水煤气变换反应的微观动力学分析──Cu基催化剂上H_2S中毒失活原因的 Monte Carlo 模拟研究

用ＢＯＣＭＰ方法及ＭｏｎｔｅＣａｒｌｏ模拟技术，对Ｈ２Ｓ导致Ｃｕ基催化剂失活的原因进行了计算分析。研究结果表明，当原料气中存在Ｈ２Ｓ时，ＷＧＳ反应的活化能明显高于无Ｈ２Ｓ时的活化能，随着表面Ｈ２Ｓ浓度的增大（θ＝０，０．１０，０．２５），反应的活化能也逐渐变大（其大小比为１∶１．３４∶３．３），究其原因可归结为Ｈ２Ｓ的存在使得反应物分子的吸附热减小，从而使Ｈ２Ｏ的解离吸附（ＷＧＳ反应的速控步骤）活化能增大。     

Effective synthesis of 5-aryl-3-ethylidene-3H-pyrrol-2-ones

Substituted 5-aryl-3-ethylidene-3H-pyrrol-2-ones were synthesized by the reaction of the corresponding 4-aryl-4-oxobutanoic acids with ketones in the presence of aminating agents. The conditions of this reaction were developed with the use of both the conventional condensation technique and microwave activation. The structures of the reaction products were con-firmed by elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy, and ¹H NMR spectroscopy. Published in Russian in Izvestiya Akademii Nauk.

What theoretical and/or chemical significance is to be attached to the magnitude of an activation energy determined for a solid-state decomposition?

This critical survey argues that the theory, conventionally used to interpret kinetic data measured for thermal reactions of initially solid reactants, is not always suitable for elucidating reaction chemistry and mechanisms or for identifying reactivity controls. Studies of solid-state decompositions published before the 1960s usually portrayed the reaction rate as determined by Arrhenius type models closely related to those formulated for homogeneous rate processes, though scientific justifications for these parallels remained incompletely established. Since the 1960s, when thermal analysis techniques were developed, studies of solid-state decompositions contributed to establishment of the new experimental techniques, but research interest became redirected towards increasing the capabilities of automated equipment to collect, to store and later to analyze rate changes for selected reactions. Subsequently, much less attention has been directed towards chemical features of the rate processes studied, which have included a range of reactants that is much more diverse than the simple solid-state reactions with which early thermokinetic studies were principally concerned. Moreover, the theory applied to these various reactants does not recognize the possible complexities of behaviour that may include mechanisms involving melting and/or concurrent/consecutive reactions, etc. The situation that has arisen following, and attributable to, the eclipse of solid-state decomposition studies by thermal analysis, is presented here and the consequences critically discussed in a historical context. It is concluded that methods currently used for kinetic and mechanistic investigations of all types of thermal reactions indiscriminately considered by the same, but inadequate theory, are unsatisfactory. Urgent and fundamental reappraisal of the theoretical foundations of thermokinetic chemical studies is now necessary and overdue. While there are important, but hitherto unrecognized, delusions in thermokinetic methods and theories, an alternative theoretical explanation that accounts for many physical and chemical features of crystolysis reactions has been proposed. However, this novel but general model for the thermal behaviour and properties of solids has similarly remained ignored by the thermoanalytical community. The objective of this article is to emphasize the now pressing necessity for an open debate between these unreconciled opinions of different groups of researchers. The ethos of science is that disagreement between rival theories can be resolved by experiment and/or discussion, which may also strengthen the foundations of the subject in the process. As pointed out below, during recent years there has been no movement towards attempting to resolve some fundamental differences of opinion in a field that lacks an adequate theory. This should be unacceptable to all concerned. Here some criticisms are made of specific features of the alternative reaction models available with the stated intention of provoking a debate that might lead to identification of the significant differences between the currently irreconciled views. This could, of course, attract the displeasure of both sides, who will probably criticise me severely. Because I intend to retire completely from this field soon, it does not matter to me if I am considered to be ‘wrong’, if it contributes to us all eventually agreeing to get the science ‘right’.     

Conductance of potassium halides near the temperature of maximum density of water

The conductances of dilute aqueous solutions of KCl, KBr, and KI have been measured over the temperature range 2 to 8°C and have been analyzed by the Fuoss-Hsia equation. The ionic Walden products at infinite dilution have been discussed in terms of local viscosity. The temperature dependence of these products suggest that near the temperature of maximum density of water, the structure-breaking ability of these ions changes in a regular way.     

Conformational control of [26]hexaphyrins(1.1.1.1.1.1) by meso-thienyl substituents

Conformational preference and chemical stability of meso-aryl-substituted [26]hexaphyrins(1.1.1.1.1.1) ([26]ArH) depend upon meso-aryl substituents. Although only a planar and rectangular conformation (type-II conformation) has been identified for [26]ArH so far, we have demonstrated here that a different conformation with all the pyrroles pointing inward (type-I conformation) is preferred for [26]ArH (7 and 11-I) bearing small 2-thienyl or 3-thienyl substituents at 15- and 30-positions. Both type-I and type-II [26]ArH exhibit diatropic ring currents, reflecting aromatic character. Type-I [26]ArH, such as 7 and 11-I, have been shown to serve as an effective ligand for Pd(II) ions to provide bis-Pd(II) complexes 12 and 13 with N(3)C(1) coordination through facile C--H bond activation.     

Interactions between temperature-sensitive hydrogel microspheres and granulocytes

Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) has a low critical solution temperature (LCST) at 32°C in water and the hydrophilicity changes through the LCST. The microspheres whose surface was composed of PNIPAM exhibited phase transition behavior around 32°C. Therefore, the interactions between PNIPAM micropheres and granulocytes depended on the temperature. That is, the oxygen consumption and active oxygen production by cells in contact with PNIPAM-containing microspheres and adhesion of the microspheres to the cell surface were more enhanced above the LCST of PNIPAM than below it, whereas no significant temperature dependence of cell–microspheres interaction was observed in nonthermosensitive microsphere systems. It was suggested that the function of cells could be controlled with temperature using the temperature-sensitive microspheres.
