The convergence of chemisorption energy for hydrogen and oxygen on gold clusters is studied. Two theoretical approaches have
been employed; wavefunction methods at the self-consistent-field second–order M?ller–Plesset level and density functional
theory and the two methods are compared. Relativistic effective core potentials exploited in the former approach were developed
in this work.

A complete set of fully-relativistic benchmark results for the bond lengths and vibrational frequencies of uranyl at various
levels of correlation treatment are presented. It is shown that the relativistic and correlation effects are of the same magnitude
and should be treated on an equal footing. Results of uranyl calculations using various relativistic effective core potentials
(RECP) are presented. Appropriate choices for RECPs for use in density functional theory (DFT) calculations in the local density
approximation (LDA) and with the gradient-corrected B3LYP exchange-correlation functional are discussed. The conclusion is
reached that small-core RECPs need to be used and that the best results as compared to the benchmark values are obtained by
using a DFT functional that includes some fraction of Hartree-Fock Exchange.

A method is described to extract a complete set of sequence-dependent energy parameters for a rigid base-pair model of DNA
from molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. The method is properly consistent with equilibrium statistical mechanics and leads
to effective inertia parameters for the base-pair units as well as stacking and stiffness parameters for the base-pair junctions.
We give explicit formulas that yield a complete set of base-pair model parameters in terms of equilibrium averages that can
be estimated from a time series generated in an MD simulation. The expressions to be averaged depend strongly both on the
choice of coordinates used to describe rigid-body orientations and on the choice of strain measures at each junction.

Monte Carlo simulations have been carried out for 2-methoxyethanol in an isothermal–isobaric ensemble (NPT) at 298.15 K and
1 atm pressure. The optimized potential for liquid simulation force field parameters has been used for modeling 2-methoxyethanol
and the TIP4P model for water. Intramolecular rotations are described by an analytical potential function fitted to ab initio
energies. It has been shown that the water molecules can form hydrogen bonds between adjacent O atoms of CH3OCH2CH2OH in aqueous media. The self-association of 2-methoxyethanol in aqueous media has been studied by statistical perturbation
theory.

The hydrogen-ion molecule has been used as a test system for the application of the Schr?dinger–Riccati formulation to molecular
calculations. Some of the points discussed are the characteristics (quasiconstancy of the local energies, size, number of
points) of the sampling region to be chosen, the dependence on the starting function, the precision of the calculations, and
the excellent behaviour of the predicted function (by comparison to an accurate function).

Summary. The condensation of salicylaldehyde, 1-methyl-4-piperidone, and methylamine has been studied as a model reaction. It was
found that at a molar ratio of salicylaldehyde: 1-methyl-4-piperidone = 2:1 and an excess of methylamine the previously unknown
heterocyclic compound 2-(3,6,13-trimethyl-1,2,3,4,4a,5,6,7-octahydro-7,12a-epiminopyrido[4,3-b][1,5]benzoxazocin-5-yl)-phenol was formed; its structure was elucidated by spectroscopic methods and X-ray analysis. A reaction
pathway for this new multi-component condensation is suggested and discussed.

The adsorption of promethazine chloride [10-(2-dimethylammonium propyl) fenothiazine chloride] and buformin hydrochloride
(1-butylbiguanidine chloride) on montmorillonite was studied in previous work. The present article focuses on the desorption
of these molecules from their organocomplexes in a medium of artificial intestinal juice (pH 7.0 ± 0.1) at the temperature
of the human body (37 ± 0.5 °C). The desorption was investigated by kinetic studies, basal spacing measurements and Fourier
transform IR studies. Important quantitative differences were observed: buformin, which adsorbed in a monolayer coverage,
exhibited a very high desorption rate, whereas promethazine formed a pseudotrilayer arrangement and showed a lower dissolution
rate.

The relationship between hydrogen bonding and NMR chemical shifts in the catalytic triad of low-pH α-chymotrypsin is investigated
by combined use of the effective fragment potential [(2001) J Phys Chem A 105:293] and ONIOM–NMR [(2000) Chem Phys Lett 317:589] methods. Our study shows that while the His57 Nδ1−H bond is stretched by a relatively modest amount (to about 1.060 ?) this lengthening, combined with the polarization due
to the molecular environment, is sufficient to explain the experimentally observed chemical shifts of 18.2 ppm. Furthermore,
the unusual down-field shift of Hɛ1 (9.2 ppm) observed experimentally is reproduced and shown to be induced by interactions with the C=O group of Ser214 as previously
postulated. The free-energy cost of moving Hδ1 from His57 to Asp102 is predicted to be 5.5 kcal/mol.

As a new approach the stationary size distribution of particles and aggregates of particles of carbon blacks is described
with an extended version of the model of reversible aggregation. Computer simulations of aggregation in dissipative systems
lead to ensembles the reduced size distributions of which are at not too short times identical with the universal stationary
distribution of the aggregation model. A crucial general point seems to be that structural fluctuations activated by continuously
running chemical reactions including viscous dissipation exhibits the same statistics as it is typical for thermally activated
aggregation. This leads to the suggestion that the production of carbon blacks at very high temperatures or the reorganization
during the so-called CAB-procedure should show a statistically analogous fluctuation-dissipation behaviour as thermally activated
aggregation. The ensemble entropy is, in any case, rapidly maximized. In the reactor, for example, a sequence of generations
with quasi-stationary ensemble structures is finally built up. Dissipation-fluctuation, including highly cooperative phenomena,
guarantees a unique and optimized stationary, thermodynamically “essentially entropy controlled” colloid-structure. Universality
is impressively verified by the finding that the particle and aggregate size distributions of different carbon blacks belong
to the same “class” so that their reduced representations fall altogether on a master curve. Consequences of our interpretation
are discussed.

A new quartz crystal microbalance sensor is developed to determine formic acid at low concentrations. Four previously selected
polymers with acid–base characteristics were tested as possible coatings. Polyoxyethylene bis [amine] presented the best results.
The sensor is rapid, sensitive [0.67 Hz/(mg/m3)], and reversible at low concentrations. The detection limit for formic acid (7.2 mg/m3) is comparable with the short term exposure limit and the threshold limit values. It presents a fast mechanical response
to pressure changes, so that it can be quickly used in different environments and situations. The sensor also shows a good
stability in a temperature range typical of work atmospheres (16–36 °C). It has a wide linear range (7.2–911.2 mg/m3) and a long useful time. It is also applicable to other low molecular mass carboxylic acids such as acetic acid.

Monte Carlo simulations have been carried out for 2-ethoxyethanol (C2E1) in isothermal-isobaric ensemble (NPT) at different temperatures and 1 atm pressure with a continuum configurational biased
procedure in water and chloroform media. Hydrogen bond bridges were formed between adjacent oxygen atoms in C2E1 (CH3CH2OCH2CH2OH) through water molecules. We also found that the stable conformers of C2E1 in water and CHCl3 are different and the effect of temperature on solute-solvent interaction energies is considerable. The self-association
of C2E1 in aqueous and nonaqueous media has been studied by statistical perturbation theory, and the relative free energy has been
obtained at different reaction coordinates by double-wide sampling method. Two minima were found in water solvent in the potential
of mean force (PMF), corresponding to the contact and solvent-separated pairs, but only one minimum was found in CHCl3 solvent corresponding to a contact pair complex.

The role of the electronegativity of atoms in inorganic compounds in TOF–SIMS fragmentation is discussed. From a study of
approximately 30 inorganic compounds – chlorides, oxides, nitrates, and sulfates – a simple rule has been proposed for the
dependence of fragment pattern appearance on the electronegativity (electron affinity), which can be easily obtained from
handbooks, and the valence of positive and negative ions in these compounds. TOF–SIMS measurements of metal and alloy surfaces,
should be corrected for the ionization potentials and/or electronegativities of atoms present in surface contaminants.

Ab initio molecular electronic structure calculations are performed for H5
+ at the QCISD(T) level of theory, using a correlation-consistent quadruple-zeta basis set. Structures, vibrational frequencies
and thermochemical properties are evaluated for ten stationary points of the H5
+ hypersurface and are compared with previous calculations. The features of the H3
+…H2 interaction at intermediate and large intermolecular distances are also investigated. Furthermore, an analytical functional
form for the potential-energy surface of H5
+ is derived using a first-order diatomics-in-molecule perturbation theory approach. Its topology is found to be qualitatively
correct for the short-range interaction region.

The results of two interlaboratory comparisons of acid number determinations in used motor oils are discussed. It is shown
that the comparability of the measurement results is not as good as that required by known standards for petroleum products.
The problem is motor oil contaminants which accumulated during use, and which are the source of a matrix effect in the acid
number determination. The standard methods’ drawbacks are analyzed and some improvements are proposed. Repeatability and accuracy
of the improved methods are evaluated.

Three different analytical techniques: INAA, X-ray fluorescence and atomic absorption spectrometry were used at the JRC Ispra
to test the total homogeneity of four candidate botanic reference materials supplied by NBS. Without adopting complex statistical
formalities a “degree of inhomogeneity” was estimated in each sample for the elements considered in the test. The operating
procedures and the results obtained are presented and discussed. 相似文献

Autoverification is defined as the process by which a computer performs the initial verification of test results. Any data
that fall outside set parameters are then reviewed by the technologist [1]. LabRespond is an open system with an integral
approach to control which monitors all the phases of the laboratory process. In particular, the statistical-based multi-two-dimensional
test ”frequency of occurrence” has a high detection rate for suspicious test results. The content of LabRespond, the validation
rules and, in particular, the test ”frequency of occurrence” is mainly the work of members of the Dutch Working Group of Clinical
Chemometrics1(1Members of the Dutch Working Group of Clinical Chemometrics are: Marcel Volmer, Martin van der Horst, Remi Wulkan, Kees van
Dongen, Wytze Oosterhuis, Herman Ulenkate and Henk Goldschmidt.) and the staff of the laboratory of the Saint Elisabeth Hospital

Acrylic copolymers and the corresponding siloxane copolymers grafted with cationic and nonionic hydrophiles were used as
dispersants to disperse fumed silica in an aqueous solution at different pH values. The dispersing ability was evaluated by
viscosity and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) methods. The results showed that the dispersing abilities are functions of
the dispersant concentrations and of the pH of the system. By comparing the results of SEM and viscosity methods, it can be
concluded that, under comparable conditions, a suspension with a lower viscosity is more homogenously dispersed. It was also
found that at pH 2 only CHE and SHE and that at pH 7 only CHE, SHE, and SQHE showed better dispersing ability. At pH 10.5,
all the dispersants in this study except CQDEA resulted in a slurry of very low viscosity of 10–20 cP with 15 wt% of silica.
Basically, nonionic dispersants CHE and SHE exhibit excellent dispersing ability at different pH values.

For all isolated pentagon isomers of the fullerenes C60–C86 with nonzero HOMO–LUMO gap and for one nonclassical C72 isomer (C2
v
), endohedral chemical shifts have been computed at the GIAO-SCF/3-21G level using B3LYP/6-31G* optimized structures. The
experimental 3He NMR signals are reproduced reasonably well in cases where assignments are unambiguous (e.g. C60, C70 and C76). On the basis of the calculated thermodynamic stability order and the comparison between the computed and experimental 3He chemical shifts, the assignments of the observed 3He NMR spectra are discussed for all higher fullerenes, and new assignments are proposed for one C82 and one C86 isomer (C82:3 and C86:17). The calculated helium chemical shifts also suggest the reassignment of the δ(3He) resonances of two C78 isomers.
