NMR investigation of concentrated alumina and silica slurries

The longitudinal relaxation times (T₁) of water in concentrated silica and alumina slurries were measured as a function of solids content. It was shown that the results could be fit very well with a two-phase fast-exchange model between free and surface-bound water. As expected, values of T₁ for bound water were in the order of 20–2000 times lower than that for free water, indicating a higher effective viscosity of the surface-bound water. The strength of the interaction depended on the particular surface, and all of the aluminas examined interacted more strongly with water than the two silicas studied, which themselves differed considerably. The chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) removal rate of tantalum by silica slurries was shown to be directly correlated with the interaction parameters, derived from the NMR relation times rather than with total surface hydroxyl group concentration.     

Preparation of polymer colloids by chemical reactions in aerosols. I. Poly(p-tertiarybutylstyrene)

A procedure was developed by which polymer colloids can be prepared by polymerizing aerosol droplets of monomers with an initiator in the vapor state. This work describes the formation of poly(p-tertiarybutylstyrene) particles by exposing the corresponding monomer droplets to trifluoromethanesulfonic acid. It was found that the monomer-to-initiator mass ratio is the critical factor in determining the uniformity and morphology of the particles. Under ideal conditions spheres of narrow size distribution are obtained. Otherwise porous particles or soft particles with whiskers may develop. The aerosol was prepared in a falling film generator, but other procedures for producing monomer droplets may be used.     

PHOTOCHEMICAL REACTIONS OF AZIDOCOUMARINS

Abstract— Photochemical reactions of 6-azidocoumarin and 7-azido-4-methylcoumarin in the presence of secondary amines have been investigated for their potential applications in photoaffinity labeling. It was found that the singlet nitrene generated from 6-azidocoumarin isomerized to a dehydroazepine intermediate that reacted with an amine to yield two isomeric adducts. Photolysis of 7-azido-4-meth-ylcoumarin, in contrast, gave a triplet nitrene that abstracted hydrogen atoms from secondary amine molecules to form 7-amino-4-methylcoumarin as the major product. The difference in the intersystem crossing rate between the two compounds originates from the azido position relative to the carbonyl group. Because of its ability to form a covalent linkage with a nucleophile, 6-azidocoumarin is deemed to have a greater potential as a photoaffinity label than 7-azido-4-methylcoumarin.     

Enantioselective Synthesis of Isoxazolines Enabled by Palladium-Catalyzed Carboetherification of Alkenyl Oximes

Reported here is a highly efficient Pd/Xiang-Phos catalyzed enantioselective carboetherification of alkenyl oximes with either aryl or alkenyl halides, delivering various chiral 3,5-disubstituted and 3,5,5-trisubstituted isoxazolines in good yields with up to 97 % ee. The sterically bulky and electron-rich (S,Rs)- NMe-X2 ligand is responsible for the excellent reactivities and enantioselectivities. The salient features of this transformation include mild reaction conditions, general substrate scope, good functional-group tolerance, good yields, high enantioselectivities, easy scale-up, and application in the late-stage modification of bioactive compounds. The obtained products can be readily transformed into useful chiral 1,3-aminoalcohols.

Optimal weighting scheme and the role of coupling strength against load failures in degree-based weighted interdependent networks

The optimal weighting scheme and the role of coupling strength against load failures on symmetrically and asymmetrically coupled interdependent networks were investigated. The degree-based weighting scheme was extended to interdependent networks, with the flow dynamics dominated by global redistribution based on weighted betweenness centrality. Through contingency analysis of one-node removal, we demonstrated that there still exists an optimal weighting parameter on interdependent networks, but it might shift as compared to the case in isolated networks because of the break of symmetry. And it will be easier for the symmetrically and asymmetrically coupled interdependent networks to achieve robustness and better cost configuration against the one-node-removal-induced cascade of load failures when coupling strength was weaker. Our findings might have great generality for characterizing load-failure-induced cascading dynamics in real-world degree-based weighted interdependent networks.     

二氢嘧啶并[4,5-d]嘧啶类衍生物作为集落刺激因子-1受体激酶抑制剂的分子对接和定量构效关系研究

集落刺激因子-1受体激酶（CSF-1R）属于Ⅲ型受体酪氨酸激酶家族成员,其在调控单核巨噬细胞系中发挥重要作用。CSF-1R及其配体异常表达与肿瘤发展过程密切相关。因此,CSF-1R信号传导可成为抗肿瘤治疗的有吸引力的靶标。本文用比较分子场分析法（CoMFA）和比较分子相似性指数分析法（CoMSIA）研究了54个二氢嘧啶并[4,5-d]嘧啶类CSF-1R激酶抑制剂的三维定量构效关系（3D-QSAR）。基于配体叠合,CoMFA和CoMSIA模型的交叉验证系数（q2）分别为0.725和0.636,拟合验证系数（r2）分别为0.960和0.958,结果表明这两种模型均具有较好的预测能力。所建模型的等势图能直观反映分子不同取代基对活性的影响,其中立体场和疏水场对活性的贡献较大。通过分子对接研究显示,氨基酸残基Cys666、Asp796在配体和受体结合过程中产生作用,分子对接的结合模式与3D-QSAR得到的结果一致。这些信息为进一步优化CSF-1R激酶抑制剂提供了理论基础。
