硫脲基咪唑啉季铵盐的合成及其缓蚀作用

用戊酸、羊蜡酸、油酸、二乙烯三胺、氯化苄和硫脲为原料,合成了6种咪唑啉季铵盐化合物。 采用静态失重法和极化曲线法,比较了硫脲基烷基咪唑啉型季铵盐和烷基咪唑啉型季铵盐在80 ℃、1 mol/L的HCl溶液中对碳钢的缓蚀性能,研究了这两类缓蚀剂与无机阴离子和阴离子表面活性剂的协同作用。 结果表明,硫脲基烷基咪唑啉季铵盐类的缓蚀效果明显优于烷基咪唑啉季铵盐类,硫脲基羊脂酸咪唑啉缓蚀剂的缓蚀率可达98.3%。 当以羊脂酸、二乙烯三胺、氯化苄和硫脲为原料合成的硫脲基烷基咪唑啉型季铵盐化合物与I-质量比为1∶1复配时,缓蚀效果最佳,比单独使用硫脲基烷基咪唑啉季铵盐化合物的缓蚀率提高了1.5%。     

Exploiting the Imidazolium Effect in Base‐free Ammonium Enolate Generation: Synthetic and Mechanistic Studies

N‐Acyl imidazoles and catalytic isothiourea hydrochloride salts function as ammonium enolate precursors in the absence of base. Enantioselective Michael addition–cyclization reactions using different α,β‐unsaturated Michael acceptors have been performed to form dihydropyranones and dihydropyridinones with high stereoselectivity. Detailed mechanistic studies using RPKA have revealed the importance of the “imidazolium” effect in ammonium enolate formation and have highlighted key differences with traditional base‐mediated processes.     

Some Criteria for Deciding upon the Support Effect

Criteris for deciding upon the support effect by the thermal decomposition of precursor/support systems are discussed. Instead of the linear relationship between lgA and E, two new criteria determined by the calculated rate maximum were suggested. Dimensionless criteria based on the rate, conversion and temperature values at the inflexion point of the TG diagram lead to a parameter able to describe the support effect in a synthetic and quantitative manner. The experimental data were the TG-curves for the decomposition of ammonium metavanadate, molybdic acid and ammonium phosphomolybdate, supported on carborundum and silica.

高比表面季铵基树脂的结构调控及在三七叶总皂甙纯化中的应用研究

利用Davankov后交联反应,合成了一类兼具高比表面积和高功能基含量的季铵基(—N+(CH)3)吸附树脂,考察了树脂比表面积和功能基含量的调控规律,并将其用于三七叶总皂甙的进一步纯化.结果表明,当树脂比表面积为692m2/g,交换量为2.1mmol/g时,树脂具有最佳的纯化效果,只通过吸附—解吸一步工艺,产品纯度即可从32.0%提高到90%以上,皂甙的回收率高于95%.最后,初步探讨了树脂对皂甙和色素的吸附机理,认为树脂对皂甙的吸附是单纯的疏水性作用力,而对色素的吸附应为疏水-离子交换双重作用的协同效应.     

The influence of indoxyl sulfate and ammonium on the autofluorescence of human urine

Despite biological variability the spectral characteristics of undiluted human urine show relatively low autofluorescence at short UV (250-300 nm) excitation. However with dilution the fluorescence intensity remarkably increases. This paper examines the mechanisms behind this effect, by using excitation-emission matrices. Corrections for the inner filter effect were made for improved understanding of the spectral patterns. We focused on three major fluorophores (tryptophan, indoxyl sulfate and 5-hydroxyindole-3-acetate) that are excited at these wavelengths, and whose content in urine is strongly linked with various health conditions. Their fluorescence was studied both individually and in combinations. We also examined the effect of ammonium on the fluorescence of these major fluorophores individually and in combinations. Through these studies we have identified the leading effects that reduce the UV fluorescence, namely higher concentration of indoxyl sulfate producing the inner filter effect and concentration quenching and quenching of fluorophores by ammonium. This result will assist in broader utilisation of UV fluorescence in medical diagnostics.     

Strong effect of NaBr on self-assembly of quaternary ammonium gemini surfactants at air/water interface and in aqueous solution studied by surface tension and fluorescence techniques

The effects of NaBr on the adsorption of alkanediyl-bis-(dimethyl dodecyl- ammonium bromide) (referred to as C₁₂-s-C₁₂ 2Br) at the air/water interface and on the micellization in the solution have been investigated by surface tension and fluorescence techniques. The results showed that the addition of NaBr greatly enhances their efficiency and effectiveness in surface tension reduction as well as the ability of micellization, even induces strong premicellar aggregation before the cmc. These were attributed to the unique molecular structure of gemini surfactant, where the flexible polymethylene chain was the spacer linking the two quaternary ammonium heads. By a short spacer, the charges of the two quaternary ammonium head groups are concentrated. Even for a long spacer (s = 12), since it is bent toward the alkyl tails, the similar effect is also produced. This results in the high sensitivity of their ionic head groups to salt. Besides, the addition of salt also effectively promotes the hydrophobic interaction between the alkyl tails of gemini surfactants. The addition of NaBr strongly promotes the adsorption of quaternary ammonium gemini surfactants C₁₂-s-C₁₂ 2Br at the air/water interface and the micellization in the solution.     

A tryptophan-analog host whose interactions with ammonium ions in water are dominated by the hydrophobic effect

The binding of quaternary ammonium guests to a flexible, indole-based host has been studied in both aqueous and organic solvents. Binding was shown to depend strongly on the hydrophobic effect and less on the cation-π interaction.     

Synergistic effect between a novel hyperbranched charring agent and ammonium polyphosphate on the flame retardant and anti-dripping properties of polylactide

A novel hyperbranched polyamine charring agent (HPCA), a derivative of triazines, was synthesized and well characterized by ¹H NMR and FTIR. HPCA and ammonium polyphosphate (APP) were added into polylactide (PLA) resin as an intumescent flame retardant (IFR) system to impart flame retardancy and dripping resistance to PLA. The flammability and thermal stability of IFR-PLA composites were investigated by limiting oxygen index (LOI), UL-94 vertical burning, cone calorimetry and thermogravometric analysis (TGA) tests. The results showed that the IFR system had both excellent flame retardant and anti-dripping abilities for PLA. The TGA curves suggested that HPCA has good ability of char formation and when combined with APP, would induce synergistic effect which could be clearly observed. This effect greatly promoted the char formation of IFR-PLA composites, hence improved the flame retardant property. Additionally, the structure and morphology of char residues were studied by XPS, FTIR and SEM.     

Study of the Synergistic Effect Between Corrosion Inhibitors by Using Fractional Free Volume

The fractional free volumes(FFVs) of the adsorption films formed with different ratios of dipropargyl methoxythiourea imidazoline(DPFTAI) and pyridine quaternary ammonium salt(16BD) were calculated by simulation to determine their synergistic corrosion inhibition effect. The results suggest that the composite corrosion inhibitor at the molar ratio between DPFTAI and 16BD of 4:1 gives the best corrosion inhibition effect. This simulation method to predict the synergistic effect between corrosion inhibitors was further validated by mass loss and electrochemical experiments. This finding delivers valuable understandings of inhibition mechanism of corrosion inhibitors.     

Interfacial molecular array behaviors of mixed surfactant systems based on sodium laurylglutamate and the effect on the foam properties

The foam properties of mixtures of an eco-friendly amino-acid derived surfactant sodium lauroylglutamate (LGS) interacting with cationic surfactant dodecyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (DTAB), nonionic surfactant laurel alkanolamide (LAA) and anionic surfactant sodium dodecyl sulfonate (SDS), were investigated, respectively. It was amazing that the three investigated binary-mixed systems all showed obviously synergism effect on foaming, though LGS/DTAB catanionic mixture showed remarkable synergistic effect with no surprise. The equilibrium and dynamic surface activity, along with the interfacial molecular array behaviors of binary-mixed systems with different molar ratios at air/water surface were also studied. Moreover, the theoretical simulation was employed to investigate how the interfacial behaviors of surfactants at air/water surface affected the foam properties. The study might provide the meaningful guidance for utilizing the LGS-based systems, especially in constructing eco-friendly foam systems in the application areas of cosmetics, medicine and detergent.     

全氟辛酸、全氟辛基磺酸乙醇胺盐表面活性剂的性质研究

通过测试表面张力、泡沫性质与粘度性质,研究全氟辛酸乙醇铵/二乙醇铵/三乙醇铵和全氟辛基磺酸乙醇铵/二乙醇铵/三乙醇铵的性质。实验表明,反离子对全氟辛酸盐和全氟辛基磺酸盐表现出相同规律的影响,这种影响体现在反离子的疏水性和空间体积两个方面,分别导致了cmc顺序:乙醇铵二乙醇铵三乙醇铵,以及与之相反的γcmc顺序:乙醇铵二乙醇铵三乙醇铵。粘度大小顺序为:乙醇铵二乙醇铵三乙醇铵,有机反离子的粘度要大于无机反离子。这与分子量、氢键大小的关系是一致的。总体来说发泡能力:乙醇铵二乙醇铵三乙醇铵,这和γcmc的顺序相符。有机反离子的发泡能力要高于无机反离子。另外,对于同种反离子,全氟辛基磺酸盐的胶束化能力、粘度和发泡能力均明显高于全氟辛酸盐,但是全氟辛基磺酸盐的γcmc要略高于全氟辛酸盐。通过量子化学计算表明分子结构中磺酸根头基的负电荷要小于羧酸根,这样表面活性剂全氟辛基磺酸根的头基与反离子的结合能力要弱于全氟辛酸根,从而导致了溶液表面吸附层中全氟辛酸盐在反离子的协同作用下排列更为紧密。     

卤化钠对一种新型阳离子表面活性剂动态表面张力的影响

The equilibrium and dynamic surface tension （DST） of the novel cationic surfactant, 3-（p-nonylphenoxy）-2-hydroxylpropyl trimethyl ammonium bromide, abbreviated as RTAB, were studied. The effect of sodium halide such as NaCl, NaBr and NaI on the DST behavior of the RTAB solution below its CMC was studied in detail. Due to the preferential adsorption, the effect of hydration and salting out, the ability to reduce the DST values at the same concentration was in the order of NaI〉NaBr〉NaCl. Attributed to its high surface activity, the equilibrium time of the DST of the surfactant solution was insensitive to the ionic strength.     

STUDIES ON RESPONSE CHARACTERISTICS OF DRUG ISE''''S (Ⅲ)——ERYTHROMYCIN ELECTRODES AND THEIR SELECTIVITY TOWARD QUATERNARY AMMONIUMS

Erythromycin sensitive electrodes have been proposed. Their selectivity toward quaternary ammoniums is described in terms of induction effect and steric hindrance effect: logKil=a_1I-a_2Z/R+a_0, where I is induction effect index, a_1,a_2 and a_0 are coefficients which depend on the electro-active material. A general formula has been suggested to relate the electrode selectivity to the carbon atom number (n) of the alkyl of the quaternary ammonium; logK_(ij)=A/2.7~R-B/(0.80+1.26n)+C, where A, B and C are coefficients which depend on the electro-actlve material, logK_(ij) tends to a limited value C when n increases.     

The Determination of Trace Elements by Flame Atomic Absorption Spectrometry: Effect of the Composition of Standard Solution Matrices

Abstract

The effect of using solution matrices in calibration standards different from those employed for the extraction steps in the determination of Cd, Cr, Cu, Ni and Zn were tested. Cu and Zn are little affected by matrix effects but, if the extractant is ammonium acetate, the use of other matrices may result in too high Cd, Cr and Ni values.     

The effect of pressure on neutron irradiated ammonium chromates

The effect of pressure on neutron irradiated ammonium chromate and ammonium dichromate has been studied. Compression was found to have no effect on the retention and on the M and DP yields in both salts. Pressure applied before heating was found to retard annealing in ammonium chromate, while it appeared to have no influence on the annealing of ammonium dichromate.     

Chiral discrimination on the host-guest-complexation of resorc[4]arenes with quarternary amines

The interaction of inherently chiral resorc[4]arenes with different chiral ammonium ions was measured by ESI-MS. For that purpose one enantiomer of the ammonium guests was labeled with deuterium to distinguish the enantiomers by their mass. We synthesized the ammonium salts by reaction of chiral primary amines with either CH3I or CD3I and analyzed the resulting ammonium iodides by NMR and optical rotation. The complexation experiments were performed by mixing the chiral host with various ratios of the unlabeled guest and its labeled enantiomer. By analysis of the integrals of the host-guest complexes we observed a chiral discrimination effect and a secondary isotope effect as well.     

Precipitation temperature of poly(ethylene glycol) in some electrolyte solutions

The effect of sodium fluoride, sodium bromide, tetramethyl ammonium chloride, tetramethyl ammonium bromide and sodium formate on both precipitation and θ-temperatures of poly(ethylene glycol) (M_w = 4000) in aqueous solution have been determined. Curves have been drawn to represent the effect of such ions on both the θ and the precipitation temperatures of the polymer. The effectiveness increases in the order (CH₃)₄ NBr, NaBr, (CH₃)₄NCl, NaF and HCOONa. The M_w-temperatures obtained at infinite dilution are 445 K for NaBr, NaF, (CH₃)₄ NBr and (CH₃)₄NCl and 415 K for HCOONa.     

Efficient condensation of carboxylic acids with alcohols catalyzed by fluorous ammonium triflates

The use of fluorous ammonium salts as metal-free catalysts for the direct condensation of equimolar amounts of carboxylic acids and aliphatic alcohols has been investigated. Esterification reactions were thus conveniently carried out under mild fluorous biphasic conditions, in the presence of 1 mol % of fluorous ammonium triflate and without recourse to any additional water removal technique. Good to excellent ester yields were obtained in the case of primary and secondary aliphatic alcohols. The fluorous salt was easily recovered by simple phase separation and reused at least three times without considerable loss of activity.

Activity of some Mucolytics Against Bacterial Adherence to Mammalian Cells

In this article, some mucolytic agents were tested for their activity to prevent bacterial adherence to mammalian cells. Preliminary screening for antiadherent activity showed that ambroxol, bromhexine, ammonium chloride, and ammonium acetate but neither guaiphenesin nor carbocysteine significantly reduced the adherence of the tested clinical isolates to cultured mammalian cells. The antiadherent effect of such agents was observed when mammalian cells were treated with these agents either before or after bacterial adherence, and this effect was exhibited in a dose-dependent manner. The minimum concentrations of ambroxol, bromhexine, ammonium chloride, and ammonium acetate required for mammalian cells treatment to prevent bacterial adherence were 2.5, 5, 50, and 20 ng/ml, respectively, whereas significantly higher mucolytic concentrations were required to eradicate bacteria that adhered to mammalian cells. Upon treatment of mammalian cells with mucolytics, the maximum reduction in adherence of the tested isolates attained by ambroxol, bromhexine, ammonium chloride, ammonium acetate were 99%, 98%, 75%, and 54% to that of control, respectively. Insignificant difference existed between the antiadherent activities of ambroxol and bromhexine, while both agents had significantly higher effect than ammonium chloride and ammonium acetate. Pretreatment of the immobilized mucin with ambroxol, bromhexine, ammonium chloride, or ammonium acetate reduced the adherence of Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Escherichia coli, and staphylococcal isolates to this receptor analogue. A strong correlation was observed for the antiadherent activity of the tested mucolytics in case of mammalian cells and immobilized mucin. Moreover, pretreatment of the immobilized receptor analogues chondroitin sulfate-B and heparin with the abovementioned agents significantly reduced the adherence of Staphylococcus aureus, P. aeruginosa, and E. coli isolates to such immobilized glycoproteins.
