SDS/n－C5H11OH/n－C7H16/H2O体系中W/O－BI微乳液界面电性质

In the system of SDS/n-C5H11OH/n-C7H16/H2O with the weight ratio of SDS/n-C5H11OH/H2O system at5.0/47.5/47.5, the upper phase of the system was W/O microemulsion, and the lower phase was the bicontinuous microemulsion. When the n-heptane content was less than 1%, with the increase of the n-heptane content, the capacitance (Co, Cod) in the upper phase (W/O) dropped, the capacitance (CB1, CBld) in the lower phase (BI) raised. At the same time, the W/O-BI inteffacial potential (ΔE), capacitance (Ci), and charge-transfer current (ict) decreased.After the n-heptane content reached 1%, with the increase of the n-heptane content, ΔE, Ci and ict demonstrated no significant change.     

Structural Properties Governing Retention Mechanisms on Immobilized Artificial Membrane (IAM) HPLC Columns

The aims of this study were to investigate whether three commercially available immobilized artificial membrane (IAM) HPLC columns yield collinear data for neutral compounds, and whether IAM scales are distinct from the log P_oct (partition coefficient in the octanol/H₂O system) scale. With these objectives, the retention mechanisms on the IAM HPLC columns were analysed by linear solvation free‐energy relationships (LSERs). A set of 68 neutral model compounds with known solvatochromic parameters and log P_oct values was investigated, allowing a regular and broad exploration of property space. The resulting solvatochromic equations clearly indicate that the three IAM stationary phases retain small neutral solutes by a balance of intermolecular forces closely resembling those underlying partitioning in octanol/H₂O and retention on a reversed‐phase LC‐ABZ HPLC column. For all systems, the solute's size and hydrogen‐bond‐acceptor basicity are the two predominant factors, whereas dipolarity/polarisability and hydrogen‐bond‐donor acidity play only minor roles.     

青霉素G钾盐对SDS水溶液物理化学性质的影响及其在SDS/n-C5H11OH/H2O体系中的释放

The effects of penicillin potassium salt （PenK） on the solubility, Krafft temperature TK, critical micelle concentration CMC of SDS micelle and the phase behavior of SDS/n-C5H11OH/H2O system were studied. The partial phase diagrams of SDS/PenK/H2O system at different temperatures were determined. The release amounts of PenK in SDS/n-C5H11OH/H2O system and the distribution coefficient of PenK between micelle and water were measured by UV-Vis spectroscopy. The results show that in the presence of PenK, the CMC of SDS was decreased while the TK of SDS was increased and the solubility of SDS in both water and SDS/n-C5H11OH/H2O oil in water （O/W） microemulsion was decreased, but increased in water in oil （W/O） microemulsion. SDS micelles and SDS/n- C5H11OH/H20 O/W microemulsion could accelerate the release rate of PenK. The addition of SDS and water could both increase the release rate of PenK, whereas the presence of n-C5H11OH reduced the release rate of PenK. The above results were related to the electrostatic repulsion between PenK and SDS.     

Potential energy surface and thermochemistry for the direct gas phase reaction of germane and water

Gas phase reaction between germane GeH₄ and water H₂O was investigated at CCSD(T)/[aug-cc-pVTZ-pp for Ge + Lanl2dz for H and O]//MP2/6-31G(d,p) level. Only the hydrogen elimination channels are monitored. Within the energy range of 100 kcal/mol, we located nine equilibrium and six transition states on the potential energy surface (PES) of the Ge–O–H systems. GeH₄ reacts with H₂O exothermically (by 2.37 kcal/mol) without a barrier to form a non-planar complex GeH₄·H₂O which isomerizes to GeH₃OH·H₂ and H₂GeOH₂·H₂ with a barrier of 44.34 kcal/mol and 53.75 kcal/mol respectively. The first step of hydrogen elimination gives two non-planar species, GeH₃OH and H₂GeOH₂ but germinol GeH₃OH is found to be more stable. Further thermal decomposition reactions of GeH₃OH involving hydrogen elimination have been studied extensively using the same method. The final hydrogen elimination step gives HGeOH which can exist in cis and trans forms. As the trans form is more stable, only the trans form is considered on the potential energy surface (PES) of the reaction. The important thermochemical parameters (∆_rE_tot + ZPE), ∆_rH and ∆_rG for the H₂ elimination pathways are predicted accurately.     

Distribution and Transfer of Gatifloxacin Between Two Microemulsion Phases with Different Structures in SDS/n-C5H11 OH/H2O System

At a weight ratio of n‐C₅H₁₁OH/H₂O=50/50, when the total content of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) was less than 6.0%, the ternary mixture of SDS/n‐C₅H₁₁OH/H₂O coexisted in two immiscible microemulsions. The distribution and transfer of gatifloxacin (GTFX) between the two phases were studied using UV‐Vis and electrochemistry AC impedance spectra. The results show that GTFX transferred from the upper phase (W/O) to the lower phase (O/W or bicontinuous microemulsion), but a small amount of SDS transferred from the lower phase to the upper phase correspondingly with the increase of the total SDS content at a total GTFX concentration of 1.0×10^?5 mol/L. The addition of GTFX did not change the structures of the two different phases fundamentally, but resulted in the transfer and redistribution of GTFX and SDS, so the electric properties of the system were changed correspondingly.     

Microemulsion electrokinetic chromatography as a suitable tool for lipophilicity determination of acidic,neutral, and basic compounds

In the present work, several MEEKC systems are studied to assess their suitability for lipophilicity determination of acidic, neutral, and basic compounds. Thus, several microemulsion compositions over a wide range of pH values (from 2.0 to 12.0), containing heptane, 1?butanol and different types and amounts of surfactant (SDS or sodium cholate: from 1.3 to 3.3%) are characterized using Abraham's solvation model. The addition of acetonitrile (up to 10%) is also studied, since it increases the resolution of the technique for the most lipophilic compounds. The system coefficients obtained are very similar to those of the 1?octanol/water, used as the reference lipophilicity index, allowing simple and linear correlations between the 1?octanol/water partition values (log P_o/w) and MEEKC mass distribution ratios (log k_MEEKC). Variations in the microemulsion composition (aqueous buffer, surfactant, concentration of ACN) did not significantly affect the similarity of the MEEKC systems to log P_o/w partition.     

Microenvironment Effect on the Location Distribution of Phenothiazine in Cetyltrimethylammonium Bromide/<Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis>-Pentanol/H<Subscript>2</Subscript>O W/O and Bi-continuous Microemulsions

In cetyltrimethylammonium/n-pentanol/H₂O W/O (W/O = water in oil microemulsion) mixtures and bi-continuous microemulsions, phenothiazine (PTZ) molecules exist in the membrane phase of the dispersion either with the N atom or with the S atom pointed toward the polar head of cetyltrimethylammonium (CTAB). Cyclic voltammetry has been used to investigate the effects of the compositions and structures of the microemulsions, pH, and the salt on the location distribution of PTZ in the membrane phase of the dispersion in CTAB/n-C₅H₁₁OH/H₂O W/O and bi-continuous microemulsions. The results show that the location distribution of PTZ in the membrane phase of the dispersion in microemulsions is mainly dependent on the hydrogen bond between PTZ and n-C₅H₁₁OH (or the counterion), and on the electrostatic attractive interaction between the N atom in PTZ and the polar head of CTAB.     

Determination of partition coefficient and analysis of nitrophenols by three‐phase liquid‐phase microextraction coupled with capillary electrophoresis

A three‐phase hollow fiber liquid‐phase microextraction method coupled with CE was developed and used for the determination of partition coefficients and analysis of selected nitrophenols in water samples. The selected nitrophenols were extracted from 14 mL of aqueous solution (donor solution) with the pH adjusted to pH 3 into an organic phase (1‐octanol) immobilized in the pores of the hollow fiber and finally backextracted into 40.0 μL of the acceptor phase (NaOH) at pH 12.0 located inside the lumen of the hollow fiber. The extractions were carried out under the following optimum conditions: donor solution, 0.05 M H₃PO₄, pH 3.0; organic solvent, 1‐octanol; acceptor solution, 40 μL of 0.1 M NaOH, pH 12.0; agitation rate, 1050 rpm; extraction time, 15 min. Under optimized conditions, the calibration curves for the analytes were linear in the range of 0.05–0.30 mg/L with r²>0.9900 and LODs were in the range of 0.01–0.04 mg/L with RSDs of 1.25–2.32%. Excellent enrichment factors of up to 398‐folds were obtained. It was found that the partition coefficient (K_a/d) values were high for 2‐nitrophenol, 3‐nitrophenol, 4‐nitrophenol, 2,4‐dinitrophenol and 2,6‐dinitrophenol and that the individual partition coefficients (K_org/d and K_a/org) promoted efficient simultaneous extraction from the donor through the organic phase and further into the acceptor phase. The developed method was successfully applied for the analysis of water samples.     

Theoretical Studies on Mechanism and Rate Constant of Gas Phase Hydrolysis of Glyoxal Catalyzed by Sulfuric Acid

The gas phase hydration of glyoxal (HCOCHO) in the presence of sulfuric acid (H2SO4) were studied by the high-level quantum chemical calculations with M06-2X and CCSD(T) theoretical methods and the conventional transition state theory (CTST). The mechanism and rate constant of the ve di erent reaction paths are consid-ered corresponding to HCOCHO+H₂O, HCOCHO+H₂O H₂O, HCOCHO H₂O+H₂O, HCOCHO+H₂O H₂SO₄ and HCOCHO H₂O+H₂SO₄. Results show that H₂SO₄ has a strong catalytic ability, which can signi cantly reduce the energy barrier for the hydration reaction of glyoxal. The energy barrier of hydrolysis of glyoxal in gas phase is lowered to 7.08 kcal/mol from 37.15 kcal/mol relative to pre-reactive complexes at the CCSD(T)/6-311++G(3df, 3pd)//M06-2X/6-311++G(3df, 3pd) level of theory. The rate constant of the H₂SO₄ catalyzed hydrolysis of glyoxal is 1.34×10^-11cm³/(molecule s), about 10¹³ higher than that involving catalysis by an equal number of water molecules, and is greater than the reaction rate of glyoxal reaction with OH radicals of 1.10×10^-11cm³/(molecule s) at the room temperature, indicating that the gas phase hydrolysis of glyoxal of H₂SO₄ catalyst is feasible and could compete with the reaction glyoxal+OH under certain atmospheric condi-tions. This study may provide useful information on understanding the mechanistic features of inorganic acid-catalyzed hydration of glyoxal for the formation of oligomer     

Dinuclear neodymium and lanthanum bis(2,6‐diisopropylphenyl) phosphate complexes bearing a hydroxide ligand: catalytic activity of the Nd complex in 1,3‐diene polymerization

The reactions of K[(2,6‐ⁱPr₂C₆H₃‐O)₂POO] either with LaCl₃(H₂O)₇ or with Nd(NO₃)₃(H₂O)₆ in a 3:1 molar ratio, followed by vacuum drying and recrystallization from alkanes, have led to the formation of diaquapentakis[bis(2,6‐diisopropylphenyl) phosphato]‐μ‐hydroxido‐dilanthanum hexane disolvate, [La₂(C₂₄H₃₄O₄P)₅(OH)(H₂O)₂]·2C₆H₁₄, ( 1 )·2(hexane), and tetraaquatetrakis[bis(2,6‐diisopropylphenyl) phosphato]‐μ‐hydroxido‐dineodymium bis(2,6‐diisopropylphenyl) phosphate heptane disolvate, [Nd₂(C₂₄H₃₄O₄P)₄(OH)(H₂O)₄]·2C₆H₁₄, ( 2 )·2(heptane). The compounds crystalize in the P2₁/n and P space groups, respectively. The diaryl‐substituted organophosphate ligand exhibits three different coordination modes, viz. κ²O,O′‐terminal [in ( 1 ) and ( 2 )], κO‐terminal [in ( 1 )] and μ₂‐κ¹O:κ¹O′‐bridging [in ( 1 ) and ( 2 )]. Binuclear structures ( 1 ) and ( 2 ) are similar and have the same unique Ln₂(μ‐OH)(μ‐OPO)₂ core. The structure of ( 2 ) consists of an [Nd₂{(2,6‐ⁱPr₂C₆H₃‐O)₂POO}₄(OH)(H₂O)₄]⁺ cation and a [(2,6‐ⁱPr₂C₆H₃‐O)₂POO]⁻ anion, which are bound via four intermolecular O—H…O hydrogen bonds. The molecular structure of ( 1 ) displays two O—H…O hydrogen bonds between OH/H₂O ligands and a κ¹O‐terminal organophosphate ligand, which resembles, to some extent, the `free' [(2,6‐ⁱPr₂C₆H₃‐O)₂POO]⁻ anion in ( 2 ). NMR studies have shown that the formation of ( 1 ) undoubtedly occurs due to intramolecular hydrolysis during vacuum drying of the aqueous La tris(phosphate) complex. Catalytic experiments have demonstrated that the presence of the coordinated hydroxide anion and water molecules in precatalyst ( 2 ) substantially lowered the catalytic activity of the system prepared from ( 2 ) in butadiene and isoprene polymerization compared to the catalytic system based on the neodymium tris[bis(2,6‐diisopropylphenyl) phosphate] complex, which contains neither OH nor H₂O ligands.     

Effect of Solvation on Chemical Reactions,I. Addition of a Single Water Molecule to the H− + H2O → OH− + H2 Reaction

The gas phase chemical reaction, H^? + H₂O → H₂ + OH, and the effect of an additional water molecule on the reaction, H^?(H₂O) + H₂O → H₂ + OH(H₂O), have been investigated. The optimal structures and energies of the reactants, products, two stable intermediates, and the transition state connecting the two intermediates have been determined. The additional water molecule does not affect the potential surface congruently: it destabilizes the H(H₂O) minimum, but stabilizes the H₂ ?OH minimum and the transition state connecting the two intermediates. However, it stabilizes the products more than the H₂ ?OH^? minimum. Finally, in line with the reduction in the barrier height, the transition state for the H(H₂0) to H₂ ?OH^? isomerization moves further along the reaction path.     

Pulsed Electrical Discharges in Water: Can Non-volatile Compounds Diffuse into the Plasma Channel?

The objective of this research effort is to develop a more comprehensive understanding of how molecules get degraded in plasma during an electrical discharge in water. The study correlates the intensity of hydroxyl (OH) radicals in the plasma and physicochemical properties of aqueous solutions of methanol, ethanol, acetonitrile, acetone, dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), dimethyl formamide (DMF), phenol, hydroquinone, caffeine, and bisphenol A (BPA). To determine the tendency of the used compounds to penetrate the plasma, their vapor pressures, Henry’s constants, aqueous solubilities, reaction rate constants with OH radicals, and octanol–water partition coefficients are compared and correlated with plasma spectroscopic and hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) measurements. OH radicals are precursors to the formation of hydrogen peroxide and any compound that diffuses into the plasma will react with and lower the intensity of OH radicals and therefore the concentration of hydrogen peroxide in the bulk liquid. Optical emission spectroscopy (OES) reveals that all the used compounds diffuse inside the plasma channel regardless of their vapor pressure where they get oxidized (primarily by OH radicals) and thermally degraded. Results also indicate that hydrophobicity (i.e., octanol–water partition coefficient) is the most important property that determines a compound’s tendency to diffuse inside the plasma channel; hydrophobic compounds readily penetrate the plasma whereas hydrophilic compounds tend to stay in the bulk liquid. The rate of formation of hydrogen peroxide is independent of the type of the compound present in the bulk liquid which confirms that this molecule is formed at the plasma interface.     

The Formation of OH*(<Superscript>2</Superscript>Σ<Superscript>+</Superscript>) Radical in the Reaction of Hydrogen with Oxygen behind a Shock Wave in Nonequilibrium Conditions

The mechanism of formation of the electronically excited radical OH*(A²Σ⁺) has been studied by analyzing calculations quantitatively describing the results of shock wave experiments carried out in order to determine the moment of maximum OH* radiation at temperatures T < 1500 K and pressures P ≤ 2 atm in the H₂ + O₂ mixtures diluted by argon when the vibrational nonequilibrium is a factor determining the mechanism and rate of the overall process. In kinetic calculations, the vibrational nonequilibrium of the initial H₂ and O₂ components, the HO₂, OH(X²Π), O₂*(¹Δ) intermediates, and the reaction product H₂O were taken into account. The analysis showed that under these conditions the main contribution to the overall process of OH* formation is caused by the reactions OH + Ar → OH* + Ar, H₂ + HO₂ → OH* + H₂O, H₂ + O*(¹D) → OH* + H, HO² + O → OH* + O² and H + H²O → OH* + H², which occur in the vibrational nonequilibrium mode (their activation barrier is overcome due to the vibrational excitation of reactants), and by H + O₃ → OH* + O₂ and H + H₂O₂ → OH* + H₂O, which are reverse to the reactions of chemical quenching.     

Systematic theoretical investigations on the tautomers of thymine in gas phase and solution

The tautomers of thymine are systematically calculated using various methods. The order of the relative stability, dipole moment as well as solvent effect of the 13 isomers are investigated. The one-step transition process by proton transfer in gas phase and in solution (H₂O or CH₃OH), which acts as both proton donor and acceptor, are exhaustively studied, meanwhile, the internal rotation between two related isomers in the gas phase is also investigated. Furthermore, the energy barrier of each transition is calculated and the results show that both H₂O and CH₃OH could reduce the energy barrier. Comparisons between the activation energies of all the producing processes of each tautomer as well as temperature effect on the producing processes are made. The calculation results also indicated that the diketo is the most stable isomer both in gas phase and in solution, additionally, it is thermodynamically as well as dynamically favored.     

The Inhibition of the Hydrolysis of Cephanone by CTAB/n‐C5H11OH/H2O Microemulsion

Abstract

The hydrolysis of cephanone in water, cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) micelle, and CTAB/n‐C₅H₁₁OH/H₂O O/W microemulsion was studied through UV‐VIS absorption spectroscopy. The mechanism of the hydrolysis and the effects of both the acidity of the media and the composition of O/W microemulsion on the hydrolysis were studied. The results show that the hydrolysis rate of cephanone increases with the acidity. Compared with water, CTAB micelle and CTAB/n‐C₅H₁₁OH/H₂O O/W microemulsion suppress this hydrolysis. The inhibition of the hydrolysis of cephanone by CTAB micelle and CTAB/n‐C₅H₁₁OH/H₂O O/W microemulsion is related to the location of cephanone in the interphases of CTAB micelles and CTAB/n‐C₅H₁₁OH/H₂O O/W microemulsion droplets.     

Ab initio calculations on the barrier height for the hydrogen addition to ethylene and formaldehyde. The importance of spin projection

Heats of reaction and barrier heights have been computed for H + CH₂CH₂ → C₂H₅, H + CH₂O → CH₃O, and H + CH₂O → CH₂OH using unrestricted Hartree-Fock and Møller–Plesset perturbation theory up to fourth order (with and without spin annihilation), using single-reference configuration interaction, and using multiconfiguration self-consistent field methods with 3-21G, 6-31G(d), 6-31G(d,p), and 6-311G(d,p) basis sets. The barrier height in all three reactions appears to be relatively insensitive to the basis sets, but the heats of reaction are affected by p-type polarization functions on hydrogen. Computation of the harmonic vibrational frequencies and infrared intensities with two sets of polarization functions on heavy atoms [6-31G(2d)] improves the agreement with experiment. The experimental barrier height for H + C₂H₄ (2.04 ± 0.08 kcal/mol) is overestimated by 7?9 kcal/mol at the MP2, MP3, and MP4 levels. MCSCF and CISD calculations lower the barrier height by approximately 4 kcal/mol relative to the MP4 calculations but are still almost 4 kcal/mol too high compared to experiment. Annihilation of the largest spin contaminant lowers the MP4SDTQ computed barrier height by 8?9 kcal/mol. For the hydrogen addition to formaldehyde, the same trends are observed. The overestimation of the barrier height with Møller-Plesset perdicted barrier heights for H + C₂H₄ → C₂H₅, H + CH₂O → CH₃O, and H + CH₂O → CH₂OH at the MP4SDTQ /6-31G(d) after spin annihilation are respectively 1.8, 4.6, and 10.5 kcal/mol.     

The release of cephanone in CTAB/n-C5H11OH/H2O system

Controlled release of cephanone from hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) micelles and CTAB/n-C₅H₁₁OH/H₂O microemulsions was studied. The results showed that the release rate of cephanone was reduced in CTAB micelles and CTAB/n-C₅H₁₁OH/H₂O microemulsions, because of the solubilization of cephanone in micelles and microemulsions. The release of cephanone from CTAB micelles and CTAB/n-C₅H₁₁OH/H₂O microemulsions was characterized by Fickian diffusion and non-Fickian diffusion.     

Synthesis and biodistribution of the <Superscript>99m</Superscript>Tc(CO)<Subscript>3</Subscript>-DEDT complex as a potential new radiopharmaceutical for brain imaging

The ^99mTc(CO)₃(H₂O)-DEDT complex was prepared by a two-step procedure involving the preparation of the precursor fac-[^99mTc(CO)₃(H₂O)₃]⁺, followed by the addition of sodium salt of diethyl dithiocarbamate (DEDT). The radiochemical purity (RCP) of the product was over 90% as measured by thin layer chromatography (TLC). No decomposition of the complex at room temperature was observed over a period of 6 hours. Its partition coefficient indicated that it was a lipophilic complex. The electrophoresis results showed the complex was neutral. Biodistribution in mice demonstrated that the complex can penetrate the intact blood-brain barrier (BBB) and the brain uptake (ID%/g) was 4.22 at 5-minute post-injection, suggesting the complex may lead to a further development of the radiopharma ceutical as a brain perfusion tracer.

Preliminary study of the thermally stimulated blue luminescence of ulexite

In this paper, novel results on the blue thermally stimulated luminescence (TSL) emission of ulexite (NaCaB₅O₆(OH)₆·5H₂O) have been studied. The four maxima appearing at 60, 110, 200 and 240°C on the TSL glow curves of this borate could be respectively associated to: (i) the first dehydration (NaCaB₅O₆(OH)₆·5H₂O→NaCaB₅O₆(OH)₆·3H₂O), (ii) the creation-annihilation of the three-hydrated phase, (iii) the Na-coordinated chains dehydroxylation and the starting point of the alkali self-diffusion through the lattice and (iv) the amorphisation of the lattice. These results are fairly well correlated with the differential thermal analyses (DTA), in situ thermal observations under environmental scanning electron microscope (TESEM) and thermal X-ray diffraction (TXRD) techniques.
