离子液体表面活性剂1-丁基-3-甲基咪唑烷基硫酸酯的合成及其在水溶液中的聚集行为

采用离子交换法,由1-丁基-3甲基咪唑氯盐（C4mimCl）和烷基硫酸钠合成了一系列无卤素的阴离子表面活性离子液体—1-丁基-3-甲基咪唑烷基硫酸酯[C4mim][CnH2n 1SO4](n=8,12,16),利用表面张力仪、稳态荧光光谱等手段考察了表面活性离子液体在水溶液表面及体相中的聚集行为,结果表明,与传统无机反离子相比,有机咪唑阳离子[C4mim] 作为反离子的离子液体型表面活性剂具有较高的表面活性,[C4mim] 产生的氢键引起的抑制分子规则排列的作用小于其促进分子有序排列的疏水作用。长烷基链的阴离子是界面膜及胶束的主要组成成分,阴离子疏水烷基碳链的增长虽然可促进胶束的形成,但却在一定程度上抑制[C4mim] 离子参与界面或胶束的形成;阴离子所带烷基链越长,越不利于阳离子[C4mim]＋参与界面膜或胶束的形成,界面膜或胶束中表面活性剂排布越松散,即界面张力越大,体系中胶束聚集数较小。     

New Ion‐Pair Based All‐Solid‐State Surfactant Sensitive Sensor for Potentiometric Determination of Cationic Surfactants

Cationic surfactants of different types were determined using a few potentiometric sensors based on ion‐pair complexes (dodecyldimethylbenzylammonium dodecylsulfate, dodecylmethylbenzylammonium dodecylbenzensulfonate, tetrahexadecylammonium dodecylsulfate and Hyamine (benzethonium dodecylsulfate)) as sensing materials. The response of the all‐solid state surfactant sensitive electrode based on a Teflonized graphite conducting substrate, coated with a PVC membrane containing sensing material, was investigated in the solutions of Hyamine and hexadecyltrimethylammonium ion in the concentration range from 1 μM to 10 mM. Potentiometric surfactant cation titration has been performed using sodium dodecylsulfate as titrant and an ion‐pair‐based surfactant sensitive electrode as a potentiometric indicator. Several commercial surfactant products have also been titrated and the results were compared with those obtained with two‐phase standard titration method.     

Study of the Interactions between Poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) and Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate by Fluorescence Correlation Spectroscopy

Polymer–surfactant interactions are operative in a variety of industrial processes and important consumer products. Fluorescence correlation spectroscopy is a powerful method for investigating the complex formation and was used to study the well-known reference system involving the aggregation of sodium dodecyl sulfate (█) and poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) (█) in the presence of a fluorescence-marked sodium decylsulfate probe (█, see picture). C_T=surfactant concentration, d_fl=hydrodynamic size of the probe.     

Free Energy Change of Micelle Formation for Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate from a Dispersed State in Solution to Complete Micelles along Its Aggregation Pathways Evaluated by Chemical Species Model Combined with Molecular Dynamics Calculations

Surfactant molecules, when dispersed in solution, have been shown to spontaneously form aggregates. Our previous studies on molecular dynamics(MD) calculations have shown that ionic sodium dodecyl sulfate molecules quickly aggregated even when the aggregation number is small. The aggregation rate, however, decreased for larger aggregation numbers. In addition, studies have shown that micelle formation was not completed even after a 100 ns-long MD run(Chem. Phys. Lett. 2016, 646, 36). Herein, we analyze the free energy change of micelle formation based on chemical species model combined with molecular dynamics calculations. First, the free energy landscape of the aggregation, ?G_(i+j)~+, where two aggregates with sizes i and j associate to form the(i + j)-mer, was investigated using the free energy of micelle formation of the i-mer, G_i~+, which was obtained through MD calculations. The calculated ?G_(i+j)~+ was negative for all the aggregations where the sum of DS ions in the two aggregates was 60 or less. From the viewpoint of chemical equilibrium, aggregation to the stable micelle is desired. Further, the free energy profile along possible aggregation pathways was investigated, starting from small aggregates and ending with the complete thermodynamically stable micelles in solution. The free energy profiles, G(l, k), of the aggregates at l-th aggregation path and k-th state were evaluated by the formation free energy ∑_in_i( l,k)G_i~+ and the free energy of mixing ∑_in_i( l,k)k_BTln( n_i( l,k)/n( l,k)), where ni(l, k) is the number of i-mer in the system at the l-th i aggregation path and k-th state, with n(l,k)= ∑_n_i( l,k). All the aggregation pathways were obtained from the initial i state of 12 pentamers to the stable micelle with i = 60. All the calculated G(l, k) values monotonically decreased with increasing k. This indicates that there are no free energy barriers along the pathways. Hence, the slowdown is not due to the thermodynamic stability of the aggregates, but rather the kinetics that inhibit the association of the fragments. The time required for a collision between aggregates, one of the kinetic factors, was evaluated using the fast passage time, t_(FPT). The calculated t_(FPT) was about 20 ns for the aggregates with N = 31. Therefore, if aggregation is a diffusion-controlled process, it should be completed within the 100 ns-simulation. However, aggregation does not occur due to the free energy barrier between the aggregates, that is, the repulsive force acting on them. This may be caused by electrostatic repulsions produced by the overlap of the electric double layers, which are formed by the negative charge of the hydrophilic groups and counter sodium ions on the surface of the aggregates.     

Langmuir Aggregation of Chromophore in Biomacromolecule and its Application: Interaction of Picramine CA (PCA) with Proteins

The microphase adsorption-spectral correction (MPASC) technique has been described. The formation of microelectrostatic fields in macromolecule is proposed and it causes the aggregation of a chromophore in protein. We have studied the interaction of picramine CA (PCA) with five proteins: bovine serum albumin (BSA), human n -globulin ( n -G), bovine hemoglobin (Hb), horse myoglobin (Mb) and ovalbumin (OVA). Results show that at pH 2.21, the adsorption ratios of PCA to BSA, n -G, Hb, Mb and OVA are 46, 54, 35, 15 and 21, respectively, their adsorption constants 3.17 ‐ 10 5 , 6.58 ‐ 10 4 , 1.40 ‐ 10 5 , 8.99 ‐ 10 4 and 1.68 ‐ 10 5 and their absorptivities 3.56 ‐ 10 5 , 3.06 ‐ 10 5 , 2.91 ‐ 10 5 , 1.10 ‐ 10 5 and 1.97 ‐ 10 5 l mol m 1 cm m 1 at 630 nm. The analysis of samples has given the satisfactory result.     

Chemical Modified Carbon Paste Electrode for Potentiometric Determination of Mo(VI) and its Application in Food Analysis and Agriculture Fertilizers

Since to the best of our knowledge, there is no potentiometric sensors based on carbon paste electrodes were proposed for the potentiometric determination of molybdenum(VI) ion. In this study, 2,2′-(propane-1,3-diylbis(oxy))dibenzoic acid (PBODBA) was synthesized and used as modifier in the fabrication of carbon paste electrode (CPE) for the quantification of molybdenum(VI). The developed electrodes I and II showed hexavalent Nernstian response of 9.80±0.05 and 9.90±0.08 mV decade⁻¹ over the concentration ranges of 1.0×10⁻⁷–1.0×10⁻³ and 1.0×10⁻⁸–1.0×10⁻³ mol L⁻¹, respectively. The electrodes showed good selectivity for Mo(VI). The modified electrodes were applied for the determination of Mo(VI) concentration in masscuaje agricultural fertilizer and spiked juice extractions containing several metals.     

Novel Green Potentiometric Method for the Determination of Lidocaine Hydrochloride and its Metabolite 2, 6‐Dimethylaniline; Application to Pharmaceutical Dosage Form and Milk

Sustainable chemistry has attracted the attention of scientists during the last decades owing to the great advantages encountered by its application. These include: waste reduction, energy conservation and substitution of hazardous substances with more eco‐friendly ones. Following this approach, a new sensitive and selective membrane sensor was developed and investigated for the determination of lidocaine hydrochloride (LD) and its carcinogenic metabolite 2,6‐dimethylaniline (DMA). Several polyvinyl chloride (PVC) based sensors were tried using different plasticizers as well as different cation exchangers. The best response was achieved upon using dioctylphthalate (DOP) as solvent mediator and phosphotungstate (PT) as cation exchanger. LD was selectively determined at pH 6 without interference from its carcinogenic metabolite, while DMA that had been reported to be the toxic inactive metabolite of LD secreted in the milk was determined in the milk at pH 2. Fast, stable Nernstian responses were achieved by the proposed sensors over a concentration range of 2.66×10⁻⁵ M to 1×10⁻² M for both LD and DMA. The method was validated according to the IUPAC recommendations and was successfully applied for the determination of LD in pure form and pharmaceutical dosage form, whereas DMA was successfully determined in pure form and spiked milk samples.
