Permeation of particle through a four-helix-bundle model channel

By using molecular dynamics simulation, the dynamic behaviors of particle permeation through a four-helix-bundle model channel are studied. The interior cavity of the four-helix-bundle provides the "routes" for particle permeation. The main structural properties of the model channel are similar to those that appear in natural four-helix-bundle proteins. It is found that the interior structure of the model channel may greatly influence the permeation process. At the narrow necks of the model channel, the particle would be trapped during the permeation. There is a threshold value for the driving force. When the driving force is larger than this threshold value, the mean first permeation time decreases sharply and tends to be saturated. Increasing the temperature of either the model channel or the particle reservoir can also facilitate the permeation. Enhancing the interaction strength between the particle and monomer on the four-helix-bundle model chain will hinder the permeation. Hence, the electrical current which is induced by the particle permeation is a function of the driving force and temperature. It is found that this current increases monotonically as the strength of the driving force or the temperature increases, but decreases as the interaction strength between the particle and monomer increases. It is also found that the larger the friction coefficient, the slower the permeation is. In addition, the multiparticle (or multi-ion) permeation process is also studied. The permeation of multiparticle is usually quicker than that of the single particle. The permeation of particle through a five-helix-bundle shows similar properties as that through a four-helix-bundle.     

Preparation and Characterization of Sol-Gel SE-30-Coated Silica Stationary Phase for Capillary Liquid Chromatography

A sol-gel chemistry-based polymer coating approach was developed for the preparation of a novel polysiloxane-coated silica stationary phase for capillary liquid chromatography. SE-30, a commercial polysiloxane stationary phase used in gas chromatography, was incorporated into the properly designed sol solution. Then the sol-gel mixture was introduced into a silica gel-packed capillary column by pressure. A thin film of sol-gel SE-30-coating is chemically bonded to the surface of silica gel particles by hydrolytic polycondensation under mild conditions without any free radical cross-linking procedures, therefore the sol-gel approach offers a simple and effective pathway to create a hybrid polymer-coated silica stationary phase. Various factors affecting column making were optimized and discussed in this report. The resulting stationary phase showed good permeability, mechanical robustness, high durability to alkaline mobile phase and satisfactory chromatographic performance in separations of polar and non-polar aromatic compounds. Linear solvation energy relationships (LSERs) studies indicate that the stationary phase has a reversed-phased character with SE-30 providing chromatographic functionality. The solute size and the solute hydrogen bond ability are major factors that principally govern the retention of test solutes.

8-羟基喹啉单体及二聚体质子转移反应的理论研究

Density functional theory （DFT） of quantum chemistry method was employed to investigate proton transfer reactions of 8-hydroxyquinoline （8-HQ） monomers and dimers. By studying the potential energy curves of the isomerization, the most possible reaction pathway was found. The total energy of 8-hydroxyquinoline was lower than that of quinolin-8（1H）-one, whereas the order was reversed in dimers. The findings explained the contrary experimental phenomena. The minimum reaction barrier of intramolecular proton transfer was 47.3 kJ/mol while that in dimer was only 25.7 kJ/mol. Hence it is obvious that proton transfer reactions of 8-HQ monomer have a considerable rate but it is easier to proceed for 8-HQ dimer than monomers. It implied that the hydrogen bond played an important role in depressing the activation energy of reaction. The mechanism of the tautomerization was discussed on the basis of theoretical results.

Preparation ,Structural Characterization and Luminescent Property of Binucleasr Silver（Ⅰ）Complex Formed by Benzotriazole and 1—Hydroxymethyl Benzotriazole

Dinuclear silver (I) six‐membered ring complex [Ag₂ (bta)₂ ‐(hmbta)₂] (ClO₄)₂ (3) has been synthesized by the reaction of benzotriazole (bta) (1) and 1‐hydroxymethyl benzotriazole (hmbta) (2) with Ag (CH₃CN)₄ClO₄. The structures of compound 2 and Complex 3 have been studied by single crystal X‐ray diffraction analysis. The change of luminescent intensity of 1, 2 and 3 was reported. Compound 2 crystallizes in the monoclinic system with space group P2 (1)/c, a = 0.7655 (10) nm, b = 1.0126 (14) nm, c =0.9502 (13) nm, β = 95.07 (2)°, V = 0.7337 (17) nm³ and Z = 4. Complex 3 crystallizes in the triclinic system with space group P1, a = 0.73611 (18) nm, b = 0.9152 (2) nm, c = 1.2277 (3) nm, β = 87.170 (5)°, V = 0.8221 (3) nm³ and Z = 1. The main structural feature of complex 3 is a symmetric dinuclear six‐membered ring formed by two silver (I) atoms and four N‐atoms from two benzotriazoles. The second structural feature of complex 3 is the τ‐τ stacking interaction between two adjacent molecular planes, which forms the two‐dimentional layer structure. Besides, compared with 2, the luminescent intensity of complex 3 shows a remarkable enhancement.
