The relationship between extractant stereochemistry and their extraction performance has only poorly been established. In order to address a part of this concern, we investigated the Pu(IV) liquid-liquid extraction (LLE) by using the N,N-di-(2-ethylhexyl)butyramide (DEHBA), as well as those of its position isomers. DEHBA (ββ-isomer) and N-(2-ethylhexyl)-N-(oct-3-yl)butyramide (EHOBA or αβ-isomer) were synthesized as a mixture of stereoisomer or stereoenriched (R,S)- and (S,S)-diastereoisomers, and were all assessed for PuIV LLE. The results showed that both the position and the stereoisomerism of the aliphatic substituents affect PuIV complexation and extraction. We found that Pu extraction is lowered by factor 2 to 4 when the ethyl branching group is closer to the complexing site. UV-vis spectroscopy showed that this extraction decrease was affected by steric hindrance inducing a deprivation of Pu inner sphere complex. Effect of stereoisomerism is highlighted for branching closer to the complexing site (α-position). Enantiopure DEHBA stereoisomers provided similar Pu extraction, whereas a slight decrease could be noticed for the more cluttered stereoenriched (αβ)-isomers, which was also concomitant with a smaller population of inner sphere complex. In contrast, the stereoisomers mixture led to a strong decrease of Pu extraction because of an antagonistic association in the mixed complexes. 相似文献

Addition of lithiated 1‐benzyloxyallene to a D ‐arabinose‐derived cyclic nitrone occurred with perfect diastereoselectivity furnishing a bicyclic 1,2‐oxazine derivative, which is an excellent precursor for pyrrolizidine alkaloids hydroxylated at C‐7 with optional configuration at this stereogenic center. Depending on the stage of the N? O bond cleavage and ring re‐closure, 7‐hydroxypyrrolizidines with 7R or 7S configuration were obtained, as a result of completely selective addition reactions occurring complementarily at the bottom or top face of the endocyclic C? C double bond in six‐ and five‐membered B rings, respectively. Applicability of these stereodivergent routes to obtain polyhydroxy pyrrolizidine alkaloids is demonstrated by the efficient syntheses of casuarine and australine as examples of the two classes of diversely configured 7‐hydroxypyrrolizidine alkaloids. An alternative synthesis of australine and two strategies for the preparation of 7‐epi‐australine are also reported, which demonstrate that the stereoselectivity of hydride reduction of an exocyclic C? O double bond is independent of the ring size, occurring preferentially from the top face either in a six‐ or five‐membered ring. 相似文献
Some 2-mercapto-5-methyl-1,3,4-thiadiazole complexes of Rh(III), Ir(III), Ru(III) and Os(III) have been prepared and characterized by chemical-analysis, conductometric, room-temperature magnetic-moment, electronic, IR, EPR and thermogravimetric measurements. From the magnetic properties it was derived that the above ligand forms low-spin complexes with all the metal ions. The position and multiplicity of the metal-halogen stretching modes in the far-IR region have been investigated. The wavelengths of the principal electronic absorption peaks have been accounted for in terms of the crystal field theory and the various parameters have been calculated. 相似文献
The aim of this paper is to investigate the economic specialization of the Italian local labor systems (sets of contiguous municipalities with a high degree of self-containment of daily commuter travel) by using the Symbolic Data approach, on the basis of data derived from the Census of Industrial and Service Activities. Specifically, the economic structure of a local labor system (LLS) is described by an interval-type variable, a special symbolic data type that allows for the fact that all municipalities within the same LLS do not have the same economic structure. 相似文献
In this work we present a thermomechanical multiscale constitutive model for materials with microstructure. In these materials thermal effects at microscale have an impact on the effective macroscopic stress. As a result, it turns out that the homogenized stress depends upon the macroscopic temperature and its gradient. In order to allow this interplay to be thermodynamically valid, we resort to a macroscopic extended thermodynamics whose elements are derived from the microscopic behavior using homogenization concepts. Hence, the thermodynamics implications of this new class of multiscale models are discussed. A variational approach based on the Hill–Mandel Principle of Macro-homogeneity, and which makes use of the volume averaging concept over a local representative volume element (RVE), is employed to derive the thermal and mechanical equilibrium problems at the RVE level and the corresponding homogenization expressions for the effective heat flux and stress. The material behavior at the RVE level is described through standard phenomenological constitutive models. To sum up, the novel contribution of the model presented here is that it allows to include the microscopic temperature fluctuation field, obtained from the multiscale thermal analysis, in the micro-mechanical problem at the RVE level while keeping thermodynamic consistency. 相似文献
The modelling of scalar dissipation rate in conditional methods for large-eddy simulations is investigated based on a priori direct numerical simulation analysis using a dataset representing an igniting non-premixed planar jet flame. The main objective is to provide a comprehensive assessment of models typically used for large-eddy simulations of non-premixed turbulent flames with the Conditional Moment Closure combustion model. The linear relaxation model gives a good estimate of the Favre-filtered scalar dissipation rate throughout the ignition with a value of the related constant close to the one deduced from theoretical arguments. Such value of the constant is one order of magnitude higher than typical values used in Reynolds-averaged approaches. The amplitude mapping closure model provides a satisfactory estimate of the conditionally filtered scalar dissipation rate even in flows characterised by shear driven turbulence and strong density variation.
