无机氧化物载体对催化CO_2与环氧化合物合成环状碳酸酯的促进作用(英文)

以一系列无机氧化物与四丁基溴化铵为双组分催化剂体系,考察了其催化CO2和环氧化合物合成环状碳酸酯的反应性能.结果表明,在四丁基溴化铵与这些本身并没有催化活性的无机氧化物共同作用下,反应活性明显提高,表现出很强的协同催化作用.另外,通过对SiO2的表面硅烷基化,考察了其表面羟基数量对反应活性的影响,发现当SiO2的表面经过硅烷基化以后,反应活性大幅度降低,表明无机氧化物表面羟基对CO2环加成反应活性有非常显著的促进作用.     

Flow injection analysis of inorganic polyphosphates

Flow injection analysis is applied to the determination of orthophosphate and polyphosphates, such as diphosphate and triphosphate. A strongly acidic solution containing molybdenum(V) and molybdenum(VI) is used as the carrier so that hydrolysis of polyphosphates and color development of the resultant orthophosphate can be achieved simultaneously. For complete chemical reaction, the temperature of the reaction coil is maintained at 140° C. Application of a back-pressure coil is then necessary to eliminate the noise caused by gas bubbles. Total amounts of inorganic polyphosphates can be determined at a sampling rate of 45 samples per hour with a relative standard deviation of less than 1%. In addition, the flow injection system is shown to be useful as a post-column detector for high-performance liquid chromatography of inorganic polyphosphates. The efficiency of this system is compared with that of an air-segmented flow system.     

Inorganic Bergman Cyclization: An Appeal From Theory

The scope of Bergman cyclization is expanded computationally by exploring the cyclization in inorganic B, N substituted derivative. This substitution has introduced polarity into the transition state, which resulted in dramatic lowering of the activation barrier. Natural charge distribution throughout the reaction profile has ascertained this hypothesis. Single B and N atom substitution at 1 and 6 terminal positions lowers the activation barrier by almost half of the original value which becomes even lower in the complete B, N analogue. The parent Bergman and single B, N substituted products were characterized by significant biradical character while the complete B, N substituted analogue was characterized by significant zwitterionic character. Reduction in electron delocalization is also observed in the complete B, N substituted analogue.     

Hybrid perovskite resulting from the solid-state reaction between the organic cations and perovskite layers of alpha1-(Br-(CH(2))(2)-NH(3))(2)PbI(4)

The alpha1-(Br-(CH(2))(2)-NH(3))(2)PbI(4) hybrid perovskite undergoes a solid-state transformation, that is, the reaction between the organic cations and the perovskite layers to give the new hybrid perovskite (Br-(CH(2))(2)-NH(3))(2-x)(I-(CH(2))(2)-NH(3))(x)PbBr(x)I(4-x), based on mixed halide inorganic layers. This transformation has been followed by a conventional powder X-ray diffraction system equipped with a super speed detector, and both solid-state (13)C NMR and ESI/MS measurements have been adopted in the estimation of the rate of halide substitution. The first reaction step leads to the special composition of x approximately 1 (A phase), while the complete substitution is not achieved even at elevated temperature (x(max) approximately 1.85 (B phase)). This unprecedented solid-state reaction between organic and inorganic components of a hybrid perovskite can be considered as a completely new strategy to achieve interesting hybrid perovskites.     

Oxidation of benzyl alcohol with dioxygen catalyzed by an inorganic polymer–platinum complex

An inorganic polymer–platinum complex, magnesiasupported polytitanzane–platinum complex (MgO Ti N Pt), was prepared and used to catalyze the oxygenation of benzyl alcohol. It was found that this kind of catalyst has great activity and stability in the reaction. The objective product (benzaldehyde) was obtained in 100% yield in 6 hr under a moderate reaction temperature and atmospheric oxygen pressure. This inorganic polymer complex was also very stable during the reaction.     

Discriminative detection of low‐abundance point mutations using a PCR/ligase detection reaction/capillary gel electrophoresis method and fluorescence dual‐channel monitoring

We applied a facile LIF dual‐channel monitoring system recently developed and reported by our group to the polymerase chain reaction/ligase detection reaction/CGE method for detecting low‐abundance point mutations present in a wild‐type sequence‐dominated population. Mutation discrimination limits and signaling fidelity of the analytical system were evaluated using three mutant variations in codon 12 of the K‐ras oncogene that have high diagnostic value for colorectal cancer. We demonstrated the high sensitivity of the present method by detecting rare mutations present among an excess of wild‐type alleles (one mutation among ～100 normal sequences). This method also simultaneously interrogated the allelic compositions of the test samples with high specificity through spectral discrimination of the dye‐tagged ligase detection reaction products using the dual‐channel monitoring system.     

Oxidation State Specific Generation of Arsines from Methylated Arsenicals Based on L- Cysteine Treatment in Buffered Media for Speciation Analysis by Hydride Generation - Automated Cryotrapping - Gas Chromatography-Atomic Absorption Spectrometry with the Multiatomizer

An automated system for hydride generation - cryotrapping- gas chromatography - atomic absorption spectrometry with the multiatomizer is described. Arsines are preconcentrated and separated in a Chromosorb filled U-tube. An automated cryotrapping unit, employing nitrogen gas formed upon heating in the detection phase for the displacement of the cooling liquid nitrogen, has been developed. The conditions for separation of arsines in a Chromosorb filled U-tube have been optimized. A complete separation of signals from arsine, methylarsine, dimethylarsine, and trimethylarsine has been achieved within a 60 s reading window. The limits of detection for methylated arsenicals tested were 4 ng l(-1). Selective hydride generation is applied for the oxidation state specific speciation analysis of inorganic and methylated arsenicals. The arsines are generated either exclusively from trivalent or from both tri- and pentavalent inorganic and methylated arsenicals depending on the presence of L-cysteine as a prereductant and/or reaction modifier. A TRIS buffer reaction medium is proposed to overcome narrow optimum concentration range observed for the L-cysteine modified reaction in HCl medium. The system provides uniform peak area sensitivity for all As species. Consequently, the calibration with a single form of As is possible. This method permits a high-throughput speciation analysis of metabolites of inorganic arsenic in relatively complex biological matrices such as cell culture systems without sample pretreatment, thus preserving the distribution of tri- and pentavalent species.     

Salicylate-spectrophotometric determination of inorganic monochloramine

On the basis of classical Berthelot reaction, a simple salicylate-spectrophotometric method was developed for quantitative determination of inorganic monochloramine in water samples. With the catalysis of disodium pentacyanonitrosylferrate(III), inorganic monochloramine reacts with salicylate in equimolar to produce indophenol compound which has an intense absorption at 703 nm. Parameters that influence method performance, such as pH, dosage of salicylate and nitroprussiate and reaction time, were modified to enhance the method performance. By using this method, inorganic monochloramine can be distinguished from organic chloramines and other inorganic chlorine species, such as free chlorine, dichloramine, and trichloramine. The molar absorptivities of the final products formed by these compounds are below ±3% of inorganic monochloramine, because of the α-N in them have only one exchangeable hydrogen atom, and cannot react with salicylate to produce the indophenol compound. The upper concentrations of typical ions that do not interfere with the inorganic monochloramine determination are also tested to be much higher than that mostly encountered in actual water treatment. Case study demonstrates that the results obtained from this method are lower than DPD-titrimetric method because the organic chloramines formed by chlorination of organic nitrogenous compounds give no response in the newly established method. And the result measured by salicylate-spectrophotometric method is coincident with theoretical calculation.     

Purine N-oxides—XL The 3-acyloxypurine 8-substitution reaction: Scope: Syntheses of 8-substituted xanthines and guanines

The 3-acyloxypurine 8-substitution reaction is a substitution-elimination reaction involving attack at C-8 by inorganic or organic nucleophiles and departure of an acyloxy group from N-3. It has been studied with 3-acetoxyxanthine, 3-hydroxyguanine and a number of related derivatives and is the method of choice for the preparation of many 8-substituted xanthines or guanines. It proceeds extremely rapidly in neutral aqueous solutions at room temperature. With water alone an 8-hydroxypurine results, and water always competes to some degree with other nucleophiles. The reaction can be carried out in dipolar aprotic solvents, in which it is also possible to prepare the acyloxy derivative in situ and to choose more effective leaving groups such as mesyloxy or tosyloxy. The reaction has been demonstrated with chloride, bromide, nitrite, and azide ions; with the thioether of methionine; a variety of pyridine derivatives, and with primary and secondary alcohols. This reaction is apparently restricted to 3-acyloxypurines which are also substituted at position-2. The behaviour of 3-acetoxy-1-methylxanthine is similar to that of 3-acetoxyxanthine, but 3-acetoxy-7-methylxanthine fails to undergo the reaction.     

Anion exchange of the cationic layered material [Pb2F2]2+

We demonstrate the complete exchange of the interlamellar anions of a 2-D cationic inorganic material. The α,ω-alkanedisulfonates were exchanged for α,ω-alkanedicarboxylates, leading to two new cationic materials with the same [Pb(2)F(2)](2+) layered architecture. Both were solved by single crystal X-ray diffraction and the transformation also followed by in situ optical microscopy and ex situ powder X-ray diffraction. This report represents a rare example of metal-organic framework displaying highly efficient and complete replacement of its anionic organic linker while retaining the original extended inorganic layer. It also opens up further possibilities for introducing other anions or abatement of problematic anions such as pharmaceuticals and their metabolites.     

Simulate methylation reaction of arsenic(III) with methyl iodide in an aquatic system

The methylation reaction of inorganic arsenic occurring in aquatic systems was studied by HPLC‐HG‐AFS as a method to separate and detect soluble methylarsenic species. Transformation from inorganic arsenic to methylarsenic was essential for major changes in toxicity to organisms. Monomethylarsenic [AsOCH₃(OH)₂] was the only product in the methylation reaction of inorganic arsenic(III) with methyl iodide (MeI). This process can be described as an oxidative carbonium‐ion transfer, with MeI acting as a methyl donor. From a thermodynamic point of view, the activity of the carbonium ion and pH were the two major influencing factors. The pH dependence of redox potential of As(III) was the reason for the effect of pH on methylation of arsenic. The influences of salinity and concentration of the methyl donor may be explained by their effects on the activity of carbonium. Moreover, kinetics experiments demonstrated that the methylation reaction was first‐order for both As(III) and methyl iodide. First‐order reaction rates were also calculated at different pH, salinity and MeI, and were found to be in the range 0.0026–0.0123 h^?1. The methylation rate varied largely under different reaction conditions. Copyright © 2005 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Phosphoesterase activity and phosphate release from tributyl phosphate by aCitrobacter sp.

Tributyl phosphate (TBP) and other alkyl phosphates represent a class of persistent organophosphorus compounds of widespread use. Biodegradation of the phosphotriesters is postulated to occur through sequential hydrolytic cleavages via the phosphodiester and monoester intermediates to alcohol and inorganic phosphate (P_i). Immobilized cells of aCitrobacter sp. liberated P_i upon challenge with TBP but the reaction was short-lived. In vitro studies with purified phosphomonoesterase (phosphatase) used³¹P nuclear magnetic resonance to demonstrate P_i transfer onto ethanol (phosphotransferase activity). This suggested that in vivo the onset of a futile phosphohydrolytic and transphosphorylation cycle would limit the extent of phosphate production. A mutant deficient in the transphosphorylating phosphomonoesterase showed an extended release of P_i under challenge with TBP that was not subject to the complete and premature reaction termination that precluded application of the parent strain to possible industrial processes for alkyl phosphate biodegradation.     

Predictions from the trigger mechanism for Ziegler-Natta polymerization of α-olefins

The trigger mechanism is a new concept for understanding the polymerization of α-olefins with Ziegler-Natta catalysts. The mechanism is based on the interaction of two monomers in the transition state, where an incoming monomer triggers the insertion of a complexated monomer. The monomer site is never a free site, and is thus protected from attack by Lewis bases in the reaction medium. The stereochemical discrimination is due to the interaction of the two monomers. This interaction determines the orientation of the incoming monomer, and the stereochemistry of the insertion is given when the monomer is complexated. The model predicts a reaction rate order vs. monomer concentration between 1.0 and 2.0, a reduced overall polymerization rate above a given temperature, very complex kinetics for copolymerization, a lower stereochemical discrimination for the first inserted monomer, and a high stereochemical discrimination.     

Effect of inorganic salt on the dose sensitivity of polymer gel dosimeter

The effect of inorganic salts, non-transition metal chlorides, on the dose sensitivity of methacrylic-acid-based polymer gel dosimeter is investigated. Dose-R₂ responses are obtained from magnetic resonance imaging data. Temperature increase due to exothermic polymerization reaction in the gel is also measured directly during irradiation. As a result, substantial increases in R₂ response are observed in the polymer gel dosimeter containing inorganic salt, especially with MgCl₂. The sensitivity of the gel with 1.0 M MgCl₂ is approximately 2.8 times higher than that of without MgCl₂. As the salt concentration increases, an increase of polymerization rate is also observed via the temperature measurements. These results indicate that inorganic salt acts as an accelerator for radiation-induced free-radical polymerization in methacrylic-acid-based gel.     

The behaviour of different organometallic compounds in the presence of inorganic mercury(II): transalkylation of mercury species and their analysis by the GC–MIP–PED system

It is shown that four different mercury species are formed by the abiotic reaction of inorganic mercury with different, ecologically relevant, organolead and organoarsenic compounds. Therefore solutions of tetraethyl-lead, trimethyl-lead chloride and dimethylarsonic acid were prepared and mixed with stock solutions of inorganic mercury at different concentrations. The final solutions were analyzed for their content of newly synthesized mercury species. The analysis was carried out by using a system of solid-phase micro-extraction (SPME): capillary gas chromatography (GC), microwave-induced plasma (MIP) and a plasma-emission detector (PED). We found that transfer of one or two alkyl groups to the inorganic mercury is possible under the conditions mentioned below. The transalkylation rate depends on the kind of organometallic compound and on the pH. The results were confirmed by the reaction with inorganic mercury and analysis of a soil sample, containing tetraethyl-lead and trimethyl-lead, in which not only the monoalkyl compound, but also the dialkylated compound of the relevant inorganic metal, were found. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

A General Method for the Vinylation of Nitrones. Synthesis of Allyl Hydroxylamines and Allyl Amines

An examination of the vinylation of several nitrones is presented. Whereas a complete diastereofacial discrimination was observed upon the addition of vinyl organometallic reagents to α-alkoxy nitrones, the same reaction with α-amino nitrones gave syn adducts in all cases, with the only exception of a L-serine-derived α-amino monoprotected nitrone. The obtained allyl hydroxylamines were easily transformed into synthetically valuable allyl amines.     

A differential array of metalated synthetic receptors for the analysis of tripeptide mixtures

A novel library of resin-bound receptors within a cross-reactive differential array for the identification and discrimination of tripeptides and tripeptide mixtures is reported. Pattern recognition using principal component analysis showed complete discrimination of four similar tripeptides and three tripeptide mixtures. The library is comprised of a Cu(II)-centered core with two proximally appended tripeptide arms emanating outward. One tripeptide arm was prepared using combinatorial chemistry to generate the differential nature of the library. Thirty resin-bound receptors were randomly selected from the library and placed within a silicon microchip array that included integrated microfluidics elements, and an indicator-uptake assay was used for colorimetric signaling. The indicator Orange G yielded an accurate measure of the degree of association between receptors and analytes as determined by kinetic analysis of the indicator-uptake assays. Within this paper we detail the method used for differential sensing using a novel receptor library. This work further demonstrates the power and utility of a differential array of synthetic receptors for identification and discrimination of complex bioanalytes.     

Enhancement of electron-capture detection of methyl bromide in air by iodination.

An instrumentally simple and cost-effective method for the direct analysis of methyl bromide in ambient air is described. The method is based on the separation of sample components by gas chromatography, the conversion of methyl bromide to methyl iodide by reaction with an inorganic iodide salt, and the detection of the methyl iodide thereby produced by an electron-capture detector. Of the 20 different inorganic salts investigated here for conversion of methyl bromide to methyl iodide, zinc iodide was found to provide the greatest conversion efficiency. In addition, zinc iodide was found to provide high conversion efficiency at a modest reaction temperature, thereby minimizing both the thermal decomposition of compounds within the reaction volume and the level of column bleed introduced to the detector. The reactions of several other brominated and chlorinated organic compounds with zinc iodide have also been characterized. The successful application of this instrument to the quantitative determination of methyl bromide in a local background air sample is then demonstrated.     

Solving incomplete inorganic chemical systems through a fuzzy knowledge frame

A model for the completion and balancing of inconsistent inorganic reactions is presented. A series of fuzzy parameters is proposed. These parameters are considered within a knowledge frame representing inorganic reactions via a semantic/functional network and, through the calculation of possibility measures, allow the completion and solution of such reactions by considering new inorganic species to be added to the reaction. Species to be added are formulated on the basis of atoms present and/or absent in the reaction, along with valence, system features, and a series of flags that determines the cardinality of the possible solution set. Incorporation of the proposed model into an inorganic chemistry formulation system would contribute to the development of powerful computer-assisted learning systems, given the extent of information extracted from a reaction.
