Metal complex-substituted polysiloxanes as novel coatings for capillary electrophoresis and capillary electrochromatography

Two novel polysiloxane-based polymers, which contain metal complexes, have been prepared. To prepare the Co(TACN)3+(2) (TACN= 1,4,7-triazacyclononane) based polymers, an orthoamide derivative of TACN was added to bromobutane-substituted methylpolysiloxane and hydrolyzed with base. Co(II) was then coordinated to the TACN, followed by cobalt oxidation to make polymer A or followed by N-octyl TACN coordination and cobalt oxidation to make polymer B. In both materials, TACN forms thermodynamically and kinetically stable Co(TACN)3+(2) complexes in which the six coordination sites of the Co(III) are occupied by nitrogens from the TACN. The polymers were coated on fused-silica capillary columns and spherical silica particles, which were used for capillary electrophoresis and capillary electrochromatography, respectively. The open and packed columns showed strong and pH-independent reversed electroosmotic flow.     

笼形聚偕胺肟树脂的研究─—H_2PtCl_6在酸处理树脂上的吸附过程

H2PtCl6可被一系列的酸处理定形聚偕胺肟树脂所吸附，吸附容量的大小与处理树脂的质子酸的Pka值有关．认为是解高度低的酸所处理的树脂上的伯胺基成盐的机会较少，即树脂的吸附中心保留着较多的空穴，有利于H2PtCl6的接近而被吸附下来．吸附动力学的研究表明化学反应是吸附速度的控制因素。     

Relativistic calculations on the ground and excited states of AgH and AuH in cylindrical harmonic confinement

The relativistic ground and low-lying excited state potential energy curves of AgH and AuH in the presence of a cylindrical harmonic confining potential were calculated using the multi-state multi-reference perturbation theory with the spin-free no-pair Hamiltonian obtained via the third-order Douglas–Kroll transformation, incorporated with the full two-electron Breit–Pauli spin–orbit operator. The spectroscopic parameters were obtained for both the scalar- and quasi-relativistic potentials. The spin–orbit coupling constants were calculated for several strengths of the confining potential, and the effects of the applied potential on the coupling constants were analyzed using configuration interaction. This paper is dedicated to Serafín Fraga—colleague, mentor, and friend.     

铬酸引发丙烯腈与苎麻纤维接枝共聚反应

棉、麻类织物通过与乙烯类单体接枝共聚可以提高染色性、皱折回复性、耐磨性、防污性等［‘j．纤维素接枝共聚物的合成始于50年代，目前研究最多的是乙烯类单体通过自由基活性中间体与纤维素进行接技共聚，但此法存在一个突出的问题是在接技共聚的同时生成大量均聚物．铬酸（下文用Cr’“表示）是公认的强氧化剂，据报道［’－‘j，它单独存在时并不能引发乙烯类单体聚合，如果用Cr‘”引发乙烯类单体与纤维素接技共聚，均聚物的生成量将会减少．本文以Cr’”为引发剂，将丙烯睛（AN）与艺麻纤维进行接技共聚，考查不同条件对接技率及均聚…     

Electrochemical monitoring of indigo preparation using Maya’s ancient procedures

The preparation of indigo from Indigofera suffruticosa following the procedures attributed to ancient Mayas was electrochemically monitored using the voltammetry-of-microparticles approach. The mechanism formation of indigotin and indirubin from its precursors, indican and isatan, is discussed. Comparison of voltammetric profiles for differently prepared and commercial indigos and genuine Maya Blue samples suggests that the preparation procedure of indigo changed during the Late Classical Maya period.

Elemental analysis of Korean women’s blood serums using instrumental neutron activation analysis

Instrumental neutron activation analysis was used to assess the concentration of the inorganic trace elements in Korean women’s blood serums. It was found that a high concentration of Na and Cl incurs an analytical interference, but the 12 elements such as Br, Ca, Cl, Co, Cr, Cs, Fe, K, Na, Rb, Se and Zn could be determined under the condition of an interference minimization. Serum samples collected from 63 women were analyzed and the concentration level and range of the elements were evaluated. NIST SRMs were analyzed simultaneously for quality control. The average values of the Na and Cl determined in the serum samples were 3,365 and 3,533 mg/l, Ca was 96.4 mg/l and K was 191 mg/l. Besides, Br, Se and Zn have a concentration level of 6.46, 0.13 and 0.98 mg/l, respectively. It was found that there is no significant difference between the present values and the reported values.

Metal-ion adsorption on carboxyl-bearing self-assembled monolayers covalently bound to magnetic nanoparticles

Hematite nanoparticles have been functionalized with a self-assembled monolayer of undecanoic acid (UA) by covalent attachment via siloxane groups. The number density of carboxylic/carboxylate groups on the surface was determined by titration, yielding values on the order of 10(14) UA molecules/cm(2) and thus consistent with a closed-packed monolayer. The ability of these functionalized particles to adsorb Cd(2+) in the ppm range was demonstrated using in situ anodic stripping voltammetry.

The isolation and structure elucidation of xyloccensin L from the stem bark of Xylocarpus granatum is described. Xyloccensin L is a highly oxidized heptacyclic A, B, D-seco limonoid with an α-8, 30-epoxy ring and a rare 1, 29 oxygen bridge.     

Synthesis of 3,5,7-Trioxapentacyclo[7.2.1.02,8.04,11.06,10]dodecane. A Novel Diacetal Trioxa-Cage

3,5,7-Trioxapentacyclo[7.2.1.0^2,8.0^4,11.0^6,10]dodecane, the parent compound of novel diacetal trioxa-cages, was synthesized from maleic anhydride cyclopentadiene adduct 1 by a four-step sequence. Attempts for the synthesis of monoaza dioxa-cage 12 failed. Ozonolysis of compound 9 in CH₂Cl₂-EtOH(1:1) at ?78°C followed by reduction with Me₂S gave 13 in 65% yield.
