A concise synthesis of ortho-substituted aryl-acrylamides—potent activators of soluble guanylyl cyclase

Horner-Emmons reaction of phosphonate amides with aldehydes leads to generation of o-substituted aryl-acrylamides. These compounds have been shown to be useful to quickly establish structure-activity relationships (SAR) for soluble guanylyl cyclase (sGC) activator drug discovery.     

Second-order effects of the output resonance and frequency-locking in an electro-optic bistable system

Based on the dynamic equations of an electro-optic bistable system with delay in its feedback loop, we theoretically investigate second-order effects of the output resonance and frequency-locking of the system.     

Hepatoprotective action of Radix Paeoniae Rubra aqueous extract against CCl4-induced hepatic damage

In the present study the capacity of Radix Paeoniae Rubra aqueous extract (RPRAE) as an antioxidant to protect against carbon tetrachloride (CCl(4))-induced oxidative stress and hepatotoxicity in Wistar rats was investigated. Six groups of rats were used. Radix Paeoniae Rubra aqueous extract (100 or 200 or 300 mg/kg of bw) or bifendate (100 mg/kg of bw) were given daily by gavage to the animals on 28 consecutive days to elucidate the protective effects against CCl(4)-induced hepatotoxicity. The 20% CCl(4)/olive oil was gavage of gastric tube twice a week (on the third and seventh days of each week). The animals of normal control group were given only vehicle. The animals of CCl(4)-treated group were administered with CCl(4) twice a week (on the third and seventh days of each week) and with vehicle on rest of the days. The test materials were found effective as hepatoprotective agents, as evidenced by plasma and liver biochemical parameters. Therefore, the results of this study show that Radix Paeoniae Rubra aqueous extract can protect the liver against CCl(4)-induced oxidative damage in rats, and the hepatoprotective effects might be correlated with its antioxidant and free radical scavenger effects.

Convergent Rates for Solutions of Dirichlet Problems of Quasilinear Equations

The convergent rates for bounded solutions of Dirichlet problemsof quasilinear elliptic (possibly degenerate) equations in slab-likedomains are derived in terms of the convergent rates of theboundary data and the coefficients of the operator. The equationsconsidered include the prescribed mean curvature equation. Theresults are proved by constructing a family of local barrierfunctions based on the structure of the operator and the convergentrate of the boundary data. The construction of local barriersis inspired by early work due to Finn and Serrin that is relatedto the minimal surface equation.     

Direct determination of 4-nitrobenzoyl chloride by high-performance liquid chromatography based on silanophilic interaction

A high-performance liquid chromatographic method without prederivatization was investigated for the direct determination of 4-nitrobenzoyl chloride and 4-nitrobenzoic acid. The separation was carried out on C₃, C₈ and C₁₈ alkyl-bonded silica columns with cyclohexane-tetrahydrofuran as the eluent. The retention behaviour observed was obviously caused by the silanophilic interaction between the solute and stationary phase. Optimum separation of 4-nitrobenzoyl chloride and 4-nitrobenzoic acid was obtained on the C₃ column and the calibration graph showed a significant linear relationship. The method was found to be quantitative, reproducible and rapid.     

ESR在ACEL ZnS:Mn,Cu和ZnS:Cu材料研究中的应用

ZnS:Mn,Cu粉末发光材料的ESR谱随Mn2+浓度和制备条件的不同有着明显的变化。根据耦合Mn2+的ESR谱理论分析,计算ESR谱参数及其饱和现象表明,当Mn2+浓度>0.2%,Mn2+开始形成离子团,Mn2+团的形成和Mn2+离子与晶格间耦合随Mn2+浓度的增大而增强是发光浓度猝灭的主要原因,Mn2+浓度约为0.7%具有最高发光亮度。本文还讨论了退火条件对ZnS:Mn,Cu ESR谱的影响以及老化的ZnS:Cu中Cu2+的ESR谱。     

TiO_2/EDTA-rich carbon composites:Synthesis,characterization and visible-light-driven photocatalytic reduction of Cr(Ⅵ)

Ti02/EDTA-rich carbon composites(TiO_2/EDTA-RC) have been successfully synthesized via a low temperature carbonization process. TiO_2/EDTA-RC exhibits marked absorption of visible light and excellent photoreduction of Cr(Ⅵ) activity under visible light irradiation(λ420 nm). Due to the high carboxyl group content and strong coordination ability of EDTA, TiO_2-EDTA complex can be easily fabricated between EDTA incorporated in carbon sheet and titanol group on the surface of TiO_2. TiO_2-EDTA complexes on the surface of TiO_2/EDTA-RC, the LMCT complex, are responsible for the prominent photoreduction of Cr(Ⅵ) properties of Ti02/EDTA-RC under visible light irradiation. In addition, the unique structure ofTiO_2/EDTA-RC is also propitious to the visible-light photocatalytic reduction of Cr(Ⅵ).Carbon sheet of TiO_2/EDTA-RC acts as a supporter. TiO_2 nanoparticles and EDTA homogeneously disperse into the carbon sheet supporter and form the TiO_2-EDTA complexes, which can avoid the aggregation of TiO_2 nanoparticles in the aqueous solution and provide more photocatalytic reaction points for the reduction of Cr(Ⅵ).     

The third-order optical nonlinearity and upconversion luminescence of CdTe quantum dots under femtosecond laser excitation

The aqueous CdTe quantum dots (QDs) were synthesized by the electrostatic reaction method. The optical properties of CdTe QDs were investigated by femtosecond Z-scan and time-resolved luminescence technique in nonresonant spectral region. The nonlinear absorption and refraction are ascribed to two-photon absorption, and time-resolved upconversion photoluminescence produces biexponential decay pattern at infrared femtosecond laser excitation. Upconversion luminescence is composed of a band-edge excitonic state and a photoinduced trapping state. The short-lived band-edge excitonic emission is independent of the detection wavelengths, and long-lived species becomes even longer with the increase of detection wavelengths, which indicates the size dependence of surface excitonic emission.
