氘和氢在钯中行为的研究

自从1989年Fleischman及Pons发表了用钯阴极电解重水诱导室温核聚变(又叫“冷核聚变”)以来,多数学者对其实验结果持怀疑态度,但研究电解重水过程中氘在钯电极中的行为以及氘和氢性质之间的差异,对了解电化学诱导室温核聚变和氘及氢的贮存与利用都有重要的意义.本文用电化学渗氢技术比较了氘及氢在钯中的吸收和扩散等行为,用正电子湮没技术研究了电解前后钯中电子结构及其缺陷电子结构的变化.     

Precision determination of deuterium in aqueous solutions by a pycnometer method

Precision determination of deuterium (deuterium oxide) in aqueous mixtures were made by a pyenometer method over the range of 1 to 99 atom-% deuterium. The average deviation was ± 0.02 atom-%, deuterium.Absolute values of high-deuterium content samples are obtained by reference to a sample of high deuterium oxide content (> 99 atom-% deuterium) which has been measured by a mass spectrometer, instead of to distilled water. Matched-standards are also provided for intermediate-content (25–75 atom-%) deuterium oxide samples.     

Site-specific amide hydrogen/deuterium exchange in E. coli thioredoxins measured by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry

Mass spectrometry as an analytical tool to study protein folding and structure by hydrogen/deuterium exchange is a relatively new approach. In this study, site-specific amide deuterium content was measured in oxidized and reduced E. coli thioredoxins by using the b(n) ions in electrospray ionization CID MS/MS experiments after 20-s incubation in D(2)O phosphate-buffered solution (pH 5.7). The deuterium levels correlated well with reported NMR-determined H/D exchange rate constants. The deuterium measured by y(n) ions, however, showed much less reliable correlation with rate exchange data. In general, residues in alpha helices and beta sheets, when measured by b(n) ions, showed low incorporation of deuterium while loops and turns had high deuterium levels. Most amide sites in the two protein forms showed similar deuterium levels consistent with the expected similarity of their structures, but there were some differences. The turn consisting of residues 18-22 in particular showed more variability in deuterium content consistent with reported structural differences in the two forms. The deuterium uptake by thioredoxins alkylated at Cys-32 by S-(2-chloroethyl)glutathione and S-(2-chloroethyl)cysteine, in peptides 1-24 and 45-58, was similar to that observed for oxidized and reduced thioredoxins, but several residues, particularly Leu-53 and Thr-54, showed slightly elevated deuterium levels, suggesting that structural changes had occurred from alkylation of the protein at Cys-32. It is concluded that b(n) ions are reliable for determining the extent of site-specific amide hydrogen isotope exchange and that mass spectrometry is useful as a complementary technique to NMR and other analytical methods for probing regional structural characteristics of proteins.     

Scanning isoelectric focusing in small density-gradient columns. IV. The use of deuterium oxide for preparing the density gradient and its effects on isoelectric points of proteins.

The use of deuterium oxide as a substitute for sucrose in preparing density gradients for small isoelectrofocusing columns has been investigated. A density gradient was created directly in a 1.5-ml column by free inter-diffusion of three deuterium oxide solutions for 3 min. The resulting deuterium oxide concentration course (as shown by measurement of the refractive-index gradient) had a very high degree of linearity. Test runs with beta-lactoglobulin and sperm-whale myoglobin showed that the strength and stability of the deuterium oxide density gradient should normally be sufficient for stabilization of protein zones against convection during isoelectric focusing. The isoelectric points of beta-lactoglobulins A and B were found to increase as the concentration ratio of deuterium oxide to water at focusing level increased. Within the limits of experimental error, the pI shift corresponding to a given change in solvent composition was equal for both components. These findings are accounted for in terms of the deuterium isotope effect on the dissociation constants of protolytic groups and the shift in the asymmetry potential of the glass electrode in deuterium oxide as compared with water. The spontaneous reduction of sperm-whale metmyoglobin to ferrous myoglobin, which occurs on prolonged isoelectric focusing, is discussed, as are the benefits and drawbacks of deuterium oxide as a density-gradient solute.

Microwave mediated hydrogen deuterium exchange: a rapid synthesis of H-substituted benzimidazole

Deuterium aromatic substituted compounds were prepared by microwave irradiation of the parent unlabeled compounds in the presence of deuterium oxide and deuterium chloride. The percentage of deuterium incorporation was investigated under various reaction conditions. A rapid synthesis of ²H-substituted benzimidazole under microwave irradiation is described.     

Physisorption of deuterium on deuterated nickel clusters

The physisorption of deuterium molecules on small nickel clusters having chemisorbed deuterium atoms is identified. The principal evidence for physisorption is the appearance at reaction temperatures below 200 K of product species having more deuterium bound to them than the chemisorption maximum, and a lowering of cluster ionization potentials (IPs) for these species. It is argued that the IP lowering is a consequence of molecular physisorption, and that identification of the number of physisorption sites on cluster surfaces can be used to infer structural information.     

An unusual isotope effect on substrate inhibition in the oxidation of arachidonic acid by lipoxygenase

Soybean lipoxygenase catalyzes the oxidation of arachidonic acid to 15S-HPETE. The reaction displays strong substrate inhibition with unlabeled substrate but no discernible substrate inhibition with arachidonic acid labeled with deuterium at C13, the site of hydrogen/deuterium atom abstraction. The unusual behavior is due primarily to a large kinetic isotope effect on Km,O2 as a result of the strong selection against deuterium in the abstraction step.     

Reaction of molecular and atomic deuterium with methanol on Pd(111)

Multiplexed thermal desorption spectroscopy was used to study the influence of preadsorbed and postadsorbed deuterium on a methanol monolayer on Pd(111). In particular, the effect of atomic deuterium exposure on the reaction products was examined in detail. Preadsorbed deuterium hinders the formation of chemisorbed methanol and favors physisorption of methanol. This leads to a strong reduction of methanol dehydrogenation during sample heating. Postadsorption of molecular deuterium also changes partially chemisorbed to physisorbed methanol. No deuteration of methanol is found under these conditions. With atomic deuterium exposure, however, significant amounts of deuterated methanol, from methanol-D1 through methanol-D4, can be produced. In addition, D exposure also causes an increased dehydrogenation probability during sample heating. The probabilities for methanol deuteration, for methanol dehydrogenation, and for D-atom bulk absorption have been determined quantitatively.     

Thermal and mass spectrometric fragmentation of esters of deuterated long chain carboxylic acids

A method combining thermal fragmentation and mass spectrometry for the determination of the position of double bonds in an unsaturated ester is presented. The thermal fragmentation of methyl esters of deuterated long chain carboxylic acids yields a homologous series of olefins plus a homologous series of unsaturated esters. The positions of the deuterium atoms in the original ester are revealed by the deuterium content of its fragments as determined by mass spectrometry. Therefore, the positions of double bonds of a polyunsaturated acid can be determined by pyrolysis after saturation by deuterium. The structures of the unsaturated fragments are ascertained by mass spectrometric method, and the formation of the ion [M – 32] in the mass spectrometric fragmentation of unsaturated methyl esters is studied by means of deuterium labeling.     

Base-Catalyzed Keto-Enol Tautomerism of Diazepam

The hydrogens at 3-position of diazepam, a frequently prescribed anxiolytic drug worldwide, undergo an efficient exchange with deuterium atoms in alkaline deuterated methanol. The position of deuterium exchange is confirmed by proton nuclear magnetic resonance and mass spectral analyses. A base-catalyzed keto-enol tautomerism is proposed to be responsible for the observed deuterium exchange. This finding has been applied to the preparation of tritium-labeled diazepam in which only aromatic protons are labeled with tritium atoms. A tritium-labeled diazepam lacking tritium atoms at 1 and 3 positions is valuable as a substrate for quantitative metabolism studies.     

Deuterium N.M.R. of liquid crystal solutions with proton–proton dipolar decoupling

Abstract

Deuterium N.M.R. of solute molecules in liquid crystal solutions with the removal of proton–proton dipolar coupling has been explored. The deuterium N.M.R. spectrum of a partially deuterated compound dissolved in a liquid crystal solvent is usually complex or unresolved because of proton–deuterium coupling and extensive proton–proton dipolar coupling. When the latter is removed by a special dipolar decoupling sequence, the deuterium N.M.R. spectrum becomes first order, and deuterium–proton dipolar coupling constants can be readily obtained from the spectrum. Results of monodeuterated hexanes and heptanes dissolved in ZLI 2142 are reported.     

Deuterium incorporation in biomass cell wall components by NMR analysis

A commercially available deuterated kale sample was analyzed for deuterium incorporation by ionic liquid solution (2)H and (1)H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). This protocol was found to effectively measure the percent deuterium incorporation at 33%, comparable to the 31% value determined by combustion. The solution NMR technique also suggested by a qualitative analysis that deuterium is preferentially incorporated into the carbohydrate components of the kale sample.     

Coulometric titrations of bases in propylene carbonate using hydrogenpalladium and deuteriumpalladium generator electrodes

The application of hydrogen and deuterium ions obtained by anodic oxidation of hydrogen and deuterium dissolved in palladium, for the coulometric determination of bases (both individual and in mixtures) in propylene carbonate, is described. The current-potential curves at a palladium anode for supporting electrolyte indicator, titrated bases, hydrogen dissolved in palladium and deuterium dissolved in palladium showed that hydrogen and deuterium are oxidized at much less positive potentials than the oxidation potentials of other substances present in the solution. The generated H⁺ and D⁺ ions were used for the titration of bases (pyridine, quinoline, triethylamine, n-butylaniline, 2,2′-dipiridyl and aminopyrine) with visual and potentiometric detection. The oxidation of hydrogen and deuterium proceeded with 100% current efficiency. Two-component mixtures of bases (aliphatic + aromatic amine) were titrated successfully by using two indicators, Eosin and Crystal Violet. The relative error of the determination with respect to each individual base determination, was less than 2.5% for quantities of bases ranging from 1 to 3 mg.     

Deuterium exchange of 4-pyrimidones and 4-pyrimidthiones

The hydrogen-deuterium exchange of H-2 in 4-pyrimidone, a number of 1- and 3-alkyl-4-pyrimidones and several of their thione analogs in deuterium oxide at moderate temperatures is reported. This reaction is apparently not susceptible to acid or base catalysis. Cations of the 4-pyrimidones were found not to exchange H-2 at all in acid media. Catalytic amounts of bases do not alter the exchange rates whereas more concentrated alkali decompose the pyrimidone. However, 1,4(3,4)-dihydro-1,3-dimethyl-4-oxopyrimidinium iodide (and its 6-methyl analog) exchange H-2 quite rapidly in neutral deuterium oxide, almost instantly when triethylamine is added as a catalyst, and very slowly in dilute solutions of deuterium chloride in deuterium oxide. Mechanisms are proposed to account for these phenomena.     

Simulation of cluster impact fusion

We report molecular dynamics simulations of the impact of TiD clusters on TiD targets. In each cluster collision the total fusion probability seems to be due to a single deuterium deuterium collision. The kinetic energies of incident deuterium atoms gradually level off around the initial cluster energy, but do not reach the high energy tail of a corresponding Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution. Neither any other support for a thermonuclear fusion mechanism was observed. On the contrary, our simulations imply that the enhanced fusion rate is rather due to channeled many atom collision cascade type mechanism.     

On the models for deuterium long-range isotope effects in13C NMR spectroscopy

The long-range deuterium isotope effects on¹³C nuclear shielding are physically not yet completely understood. Two existing models for explaining these effects, vibrational and substituent, are compared here. The vibrational model is based on the Born-Oppenheimer approximation, but it can explain only one-bond deuterium effects. To the contrary, the substituent model may explain many long-range isotope effects, but it is controversial due to the assumption of some distinct electronic properties of isotopes. We explain how long-range deuterium isotope effects may be rationalized by the subtle electronic changes induced by isotope substitution, which does not violate the Born-Oppenheimer approximation.

Potentiometric titration of low concentrations of boric acid anhydride in deuterium oxide and in ordinary water

A precision of 99.5 per cent, or better, is obtainable for the determination of boric acid anhydride (50 to 150 mg per liter) in deuterium oxide or ordinary water solution; titrations may be performed with concentrations as low as 0.76 mg per liter. Sufficient mannitol is added so that the potentiometric curve is duplicable. Glycerol is not satisfactory, in deuterium oxide, at low molar concentrations of boric acid anhydride.Differences in pH end-points for water and deuterium oxide solutions were noted.
