Anticyanobacterial phenolic constituents from the aerial parts of Eupatorium fortunei Turcz

Four thymol derivatives and two phenolic compounds were isolated from the aerial parts of Eupatorium fortunei. The new structures were elucidated to be 7,8,9-trihydroxythymol (1), and 8,10-didehydro-7,9-dihydroxythymol (2) by means of MS and NMR analysis. The known compounds were identified as 8,9,10-trihydroxythymol (3), 10-acetoxy-8,9-dihydroxythymol (4), o-coumaric acid (5) and 4-(2-hydroxyethyl)benzaldehyde (6). Compound 3 showed strongest inhibitory effect on the growth of Microcystis aeruginosa in comparison with CuSO₄.

分光光度法在制备负载型多糖吸附污水中铅的应用

本文用不同活性炭制备了负载型多糖（活性炭改良）,多糖的负载率用硫酸苯酚法测定,标准曲线回归方程为Y=0.005906X+0.1234（ r=0.9998）,RSD为0.7%,线性范围为5~50.0mg/L,耶壳活性炭多糖负载率最高为65.71%。用自制负载型多糖清除污水中的铅,以甲基百里香酚蓝为显色剂,用光度法测定铅吸附率,测定条件为,室温、波长为610nm、甲醇为增敏剂、pH为6、显色剂用量为1.5mg/L,反应时间50min,方法的标准曲线回归方程为Y=0.0682X+0.1825（r=0.9999）,线性范围为0～8.0mg/L。平均6次的检出限为0.2mg/L,加标回收率在96.8%～102.3%,RSD为0.39%～3.2%,同时作了共存离子的干扰。结果不同负载型多糖对铅离子的吸附不同,其中椰壳活性炭负载多糖对铅的吸附最大为28.61%,比相应活性炭对铅的吸附高了16.08%。将多糖负载在活性炭上,可明显提高对铅离子的吸附,所以该研究为清除实际污水乃至土壤中的铅提供依据。

Two new cycloartanes from the leaves of Combretum quadrangulare growing in Vietnam and their biological activities

Two new cycloartanes, combretanones G and H (1 and 2), were isolated from the leaves of Combretum quadrangulare. Their structures were elucidated by applying a set of spectroscopic methods, while their relative configurations were determined using DFT-NMR chemical shift calculations and subsequent assignment of DP4 probabilities. Compounds 1 and 2 are C-23/C-24 stereoisomers of the previously-reported euphonerin E. Both exhibited moderate cytotoxicity against three human cancer cell lines. Compound 2 was shown to be a potent antiparasitic. Our results confirm the traditional medicinal uses of Combretum quadrangulare in Vietnam.     

Simple and rapid synthesis of ternary polyaniline/titanium oxide/graphene by simultaneous TiO<Subscript>2</Subscript> generation and aniline oxidation as hybrid materials for supercapacitor applications

This paper reports a simple methodology for the synthesis of a polyaniline/titanium oxide/graphene hybrid (Pani/TiO₂/GN) using a simple methodology, and their application as a supercapacitor electrode material for energy storage. The Pani/TiO₂/GN hybrid was prepared by a simple approach by simultaneous generation of Pani and TiO₂ in situ from aniline and titanium iso-propoxide, respectively, in the presence of GN under ice bath conditions. The incorporation of GN improved the electrical conductivity of Pani and helped to decrease the charge transfer resistance, whereas TiO₂ generation by an in situ method increased the surface area considerably and enhanced the capacitance of the Pani/TiO₂/GN hybrid. TEM showed that Pani and TiO₂ were well incorporated and coated on the GN successfully. The shift of the peaks in the FTIR spectrum and XRD pattern of the Pani/TiO₂/GN hybrid compared to their pure counterparts suggested that TiO₂ and Pani had been perfectly coated on the GN, and there was a strong interaction among Pani, GN, and TiO₂ particles. The electrochemical performance of the as-prepared Pani/TiO₂/GN hybrid electrode showed a high specific capacitance of 403.2 F g^?1 at a current density of 2 A g^?1 and excellent cycling stability for up to 1000 cycles. This suggested that the effective incorporation of GN and TiO₂ into Pani and the high surface area could simultaneously increase the electrochemical capacitance and cyclic stability of the Pani/TiO₂/GN hybrid, leading to superior electrochemical performance.

Acid–base and coordination properties of <Emphasis Type="Italic">Meso</Emphasis>-substituted porphyrins in nonaqueous solutions

Acid–base and coordination properties of alkyl and aryl meso-substituted porphyrins are studied spectrophotometrically in nonaqueous solutions. It is found that the nature of the substituent greatly affects the basicity of ligands for porphyrins characterized by a flat structure of macrocycle. The electronic effects of substituents have a much weaker influence on the kinetics of complexing. These effects could be due to the opposite orientation of some factors: an increase in the basicity and stability of the N–H bonds of porphyrin reaction centers. Dissociation constants pK _b of the cationic forms of meso-substituted derivatives of porphyrin are measured. The values of pK _b are in good agreement with classic concepts of the nature of substituents, particularly those indirectly included in the macrocycle through phenyl buffer rings.
