Inverted and suppressed direct response HMQC-TOCSY spectra - a convenient method of spectral editing

HMQC-TOCSY spectra provide a convenient means of establishing proton-proton connectivities in congested spectra of complex aromatic heterocycles. Advantage is taken of the greater dispersion of the ¹³C nmr spectrum to circumvent overlap which would preclude spectral interpretation through the usual COSY spectrum. A recently reported method for inverting direct responses (IDR) in HMQC-TOCSY spectra is demonstrated for [1]benzothieno[2,3-c]naphtho[2,1-g]quinoline. A modification of the IDR-HMQC-TOCSY method is also demonstrated which is capable of fully suppressing direct responses (SDR) without resorting to the timing of the onset of decoupling as in the original report of the HMQC-TOCSY experiment. SDR-HMQC-TOCSY has the further advantage of allowing the use of higher levels of digitization in F₂ than can be attained when broadband heteronuclear decoupling is employed.     

Elucidation of the structure of quindolinone,a minor alkaloid of cryptolepis sanguinolenta: Submilligram 1H-13c and 1H-15N heteronuclear shift correlation experiments using micro inverse-detection

Elucidation of minor natural product structures has been significantly augmented by inverse-detection; further improvement has been afforded by the development of micro inverse-detection probes. We report here the elucidation of the structure of a new alkaloid, quindolinone (5H, 10H-indolo[3,2-b]quinolin-11-one), from the West African plant Cryptolepis sanguinolenta. All nmr data for this minor, preparative hplc-isolated alkaloid, including ¹H-¹⁵N one? bond heteronuclear shift correlation (HMQC) data, were recorded on an 800 μg sample of the alkaloid dissolved in 140 μl of 100% d₆-DMSO using a 400 MHz spectrometer.     

Colloidal interactions: contact limiting laws,double-layer dissociation,and "non-DLVO" (Derjaguin–Landau–Verwey–Overbeek) forces

The conceptual basis and main results of a new model of the dissociative electrical double layer augmented with Lubetkin-Middleton-Ottewill (LMO) dissociative law are summarized. The main results are: the derivation of fundamental limiting laws of planar repulsions in the limit of surface contact, and their transition to the Debye-Hückel limiting laws at infinite separation; the prediction of stronger and longer-range electrostatic forces, quantitatively and consistently accounting for repulsions in colloidal montmorillonites; the discovery of the classical Debye-Hückel interionic effect being operative in increasing double-layer dissociation by lowering the activities of diffuse ions via the LMO law; the prediction of maxima of Stern potentials in spherical symmetry without any further assumptions, and the prediction of no maxima for platelike montmorillonites. In the light of these new insights, the concepts of "hydration forces" and other close-range "non-DLVO" forces may need to be revised, as well as the origin of the maxima of electrophoretic mobilities (Stern potentials) for spherical colloids.     

New approach to calibrating conductivity meters in the low conductivity range

There is currently a major issue with the calibration of conductivity meters used for high purity water: the lack of availability of a reference material or reference methods for low conductivity ranges (conductivity below 1 S cm^–1 at 25.0 °C, resistivity >1 M cm at 25.0 °C). This paper describes the current status of conductivity measurements in high purity water. A new and improved approach, currently being investigated, should allow us to make the calibration of conductivity meters used for low conductivity ranges traceable to the SI.Milipore, Milli-Q and Elix are registered trademarks of Millipore Corporation.     

Die Berechnung von Einelektronen-Integralen in der SCF-Xα-SW-Methode: I. Die Normierung

A normalization of the wave functions by means of the theoretical exact Multiple-Scattering-(MS)-formalism is discussed within the framework of the SCF-X-SW-method. For the atomic and extramolecular regions the integrals of normalization can be easily determined and the results can be described by the corresponding electronic charges. The calculation of the integral of the interatomic region is problematic. The needful volume integration is only necessary to theGreen's functions of the wave functions and can be solved by means of the residual theory. The further analytical calculation of the surface integrals leads to a complicated formalism which can be numerically evaluated.
