Quantitative Determination of Silicon in Organosilicon Compounds Using Low-Temperature RF-Discharge Oxygen Plasma

Abstract

The paper describes a technique for quantitative determination of silicon in organic monomer and polymer materials based on low-temperature decomposition of samples in rf-discharge oxygen plasmas. The final step of analysis involves gravimetric determination of silicon in the form of silicon dioxide. The presence of fluorine (up to 50%) does not interfere with the determination of silicon.     

Computer Graphics in the Study of Metal Cluster Compounds

Polynuclear carbonylmetal compounds provide convenient molecular analogues for the reactions occurring at metal surfaces during catalytic processes. Many properties of these cluster compounds are determined by the type and distribution of the ligands covering the metal polyhedral surface. Computer simulated space-filling models of these complicated molecules provide readily assimilated information about the arrangement of surface ligands, and in many cases lead to conclusions not readily deduced from other approaches.

Comparative Study of Sample Carriers for the Identification of Volatile Compounds in Biological Fluids Using Raman Spectroscopy

Vibrational spectroscopic techniques and especially Raman spectroscopy are gaining ground in substituting the officially established chromatographic methods in the identification of ethanol and other volatile substances in body fluids, such as blood, urine, saliva, semen, and vaginal fluids. Although a couple of different carriers and substrates have been employed for the biochemical analysis of these samples, most of them are suffering from important weaknesses as far as the analysis of volatile compounds is concerned. For this reason, in this study three carriers are proposed, and the respective sample preparation methods are described for the determination of ethanol in human urine samples. More specifically, a droplet of the sample on a highly reflective carrier of gold layer, a commercially available cuvette with a mirror to enhance backscattered radiation sealed with a lid, and a home designed microscope slide with a cavity coated with gold layer and covered with transparent cling film have been evaluated. Among the three proposed carriers, the last one achieved a quick, simple, and inexpensive identification of ethanol, which was used as a case study for the volatile compound, in the biological samples. The limit of detection (LoD) was found to be 1.00 μL/mL, while at the same time evaporation of ethanol was prevented.     

Sigma-Pi Rearrangements of Organotransition Metal Compounds

σ-Bonded organic groups in transition-metal complexes can rearrange to π-bonding ligands and vice versa: the classic example is the formation of π-arenechromium complexes from σ-arylchromium compounds. Rearrangements of this kind can be induced, inter alia, by reactions of the metal or of the ligand, as well as by migration or insertion of a ligand. Rearrangements play a role in many industrial processes, including the polymerization and isomerization of olefins and the hydroformylation of olefins.

Spectrophotometric Determination of Some Pharmaceutical Compounds Using 2,2-Diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl

Abstract

A spectrophotometric method for the determination of some pharmaceutical amides, hydrazides and thiols is described. The method is based on the reaction of the studied drugs with 2,2-diphenyl-1-picryl hydrazyl (DPPH). The latter is employed to abstract a hydrogen atom from the drugs thereby promoting a process of radical coupling. This results in a reduction of the violet colour of DPPH with the formation of the yellow coloured 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazine (DPPH₂). This fading in colour of DPPH reagent depends on the concentration of the drug being determined. Beer's law is obeyed in the ranges of 1–5 μg/ml (for isocarboxazid and gliclazide), 0.25–2.5 μg/ml (for isoniazid), 0.5–5 μg/ml (for iproniazid), 1–7 μg/ml (for tolazamide), 2–15 μg/ml (for captopril) and 1–6 μg/ml (for sulphathiourea). The validity of the method was tested by analysing the studied drugs in pure form as well as in tablets. Results of analyses were compared statistically with the official or reported methods.     

Structural Studies of Transition Metal Compounds

A historical overview will be given on the structural studies on transition metal compounds and their interaction with other fields of coordination chemistry. About three decades have passed away since the structure and absolute configuration of tris(ethylenediamine)cobalt(III) complex ion were determined. At present accumulation of the structural data for isomers has enabled us to understand structural principles of chelate complexes in considerable detail. The energy minimization calculations can predict the detailed geometries of the complexes. Differences in thermodynamic properties between different conformers are well reproduced. Aspherical distribution of 3d electrons in transition metal complexes was detected for the first time in crystals of [Co(NH3)₆][Co(CN)₆] in 1973. Such an accurate electron density study provides important information on the d electrons placed in a ligand field. The high-spin and low-spin states can be distinguished unequivocally. In spite of a very small valence/total electron ratio, the asphericity of 4d and 5d electrons in a ligand field can be detected. The crystal structures of a series of dimeric copper(II) carboxylate adducts of the general formula [Cu(RCOO)₂L]₂ have been determined or redetermined as accurately as possible. The temperature dependent magnetic susceptibility of these crystals indicated that the isolated pairs of Cu(II) ions interact strongly through exchange forces. Molecular orbital calculations revealed that the electron population in the carbon atom of the bridging OCO group plays an important role in determining the strength of the spin superexchange interaction. In the crystals of some cobaloxime complexes, racemization of chiral groups bonded to Co proceeds on X-ray exposure without degradation of crystallinity. Several intermediate stages could be determined by X-ray analysis. Various reaction pathways were recognized and the reaction rate could be correlated with the atomic arrangement in the crystal.     

Determination of Sulfur Compounds in Air by Chemiluminescence

Abstract

The present review is devoted to applications of chemiluminescence to the analysis of trace sulfur species in air. Determinations of oxidized (sulfur dioxide and sulfite), reduced (hydrogen sulfide, dimethyl sulfide, carbonyl sulfide, carbon disulfide and mercaptans) and/or sulfur compounds in general are described and some practical considerations are discussed. The development of detectors based on chemiluminescence in the aproximately last fifteen years is also reviewed.     

Determination of Guanidino Compounds in Serum by Micellar Electrokinetic Capillary Chromatography Using Benzoin as the Derivatizing Reagent

An analytical procedure has been evolved for the determination of seven guanidino compounds; guanidine (G), methylguanidine (MG), guanidinoacetic acid (GAA), guanidinopropionic acid (GPA), guanidinobutyric acid (GBA), arginine (Arg), and guanidinosuccinic acid (GSA) by micellar electrokinetic capillary chromatography (MEKC) within 6 min using benzoin as derivatizing reagent. Sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) was used as the micellar medium in a sodium tetraborate (0.1 M) buffer at pH 8.5. Uncoated fused silica capillary was used with an effective length of 39 cm and 75 μm id. Applied voltage was 25 kV and photo diode array detection was set at 228 nm. Linear calibrations obtained from 0.057 to 14.11 μmol/L and limits of detection (LOD) were within 0.019–0.03 μmol/L. The derivatization and separation was repeatable with relative standard deviation (RSD) within 1.9–3.8%. Serum of healthy volunteers and uremic patients was analyzed and amounts found in uremic patients were G 1.98–3.03, MG 1.21–1.79, GAA 3.67–6.09, GPA 1.17–1.37, GBA 1.29–1.46, Arg 9.49–19.17, and GSA 6.83–10.91 μmol/L with RSD (n = 4) within 1.3–4.5%. The amount of guanidino compounds was higher in uremic patients than in healthy volunteers.
