Synthesis, dual fluorescence, and fluoroionophoric behavior of dipyridylaminomethylstilbenes

The synthesis, dual fluorescence, and fluoroionophoric behavior of two donor-sigma spacer-acceptor (D-s-A) compounds, trans-4-(N,N-bis(2-pyridyl)amino)methylstilbene (1H) and trans-4-(N,N-bis(2-pyridyl)amino)methyl-4'-cyanostilbene (1CN), are reported and compared to that of trans-4-(N,N-bis(2-pyridyl)amino)methyl-4'-(N,N-dimethylamino)stilbene (1DPA). To gain insights into the dual fluorescence properties for 1H and 1CN in polar but not in nonpolar solvents, model compounds resulting from a replacement of the stilbene group by alkyl (2R) or xylyl (2X) groups or from a replacement of the dipyridylamino (dpa) group by dianisoleamino (3AA), diethylamino (3EE), methylanilino (3MP), or diphenylamino (3PP) groups also have been investigated. In addition to 1H and 1CN, all four compounds of 3 display dual fluorescence. The locally excited (LE) fluorescence mainly results from the stilbene group and the ICT fluorescence from the through-bond interactions between the amino donor and the stilbene acceptors. In the presence of transition metal ions such as Zn(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), and Cd(II), the ICT processes are switched from dpa (D) --> stilbene (A) in 1H and 1CN to stilbene (D) --> dpa/metal ion (A) in their complexes. Whereas the ICT states for the complexes are generally nonfluorescent, an exception was found for the case of 1H/Zn(II). As a result, substituent-dependent fluoroionophoric behavior has been demonstrated by 1H, 1CN, and 1DPA in response to Zn(II).     

新颖双核钐硫酚化合物[(THF)3I2Sm(m-SAr)]2 (Ar = Ph, 4-Me2NC6H4)的合成与化合物[(THF)3I2Sm(m-S-4-Me2NC6H4)]2的晶体结构

Reactions of SmI2 in THF with ArSSAr produced two binuclear samarium thiolate complexes [（THF）3I2- Sm（μ-SAr）]2 [Ar=Ph （1）, 4-Me2NC6H4 （2）] in high yields. The structure of 2 was characterized by single crystal X-ray crystallography. The crystal of 2 belongs to the triclinic system with space group P 1 and a=0.95705（13） nm, b= 1.22287（14） nm, c= 1.26450（14） nm, a=64.194（11）°, B=78.491（13）°, y=76.176（12）°, V= 1.2860（3） nm^3, Z= 1,μ=4.783 mm^-1, Dc= 1.964 Mg/m^3, M= 1521.19, S= 1.046, R1=0.0358, wR2=0.0910. X-ray analysis revealed that 2 is a thiolate-bridged dimer in which each Sm atom adopts a distorted pentagonal bipyramidal coordi- nation geometry.

New pavine N-oxide alkaloids from the stem bark of Cryptocarya chinensis Hemsl

Three new pavine N-oxide alkaloids, (-)-isocaryachine-N-oxide B, (+)-caryachine-N-oxide, (-)-caryachine-N-oxide, and a new isoquinoline alkaloid, 6,7-methylenedioxy-N-methylisoquinoline together with 11 known alkaloids were isolated and characterized from the stem bark of Cryptocarya chinensis. The structures of the isolated compounds were determined by spectral methods. The stereochemistry of pavine-N-oxide alkaloids is also discussed.     

Three New Triterpenoids from Lycopodium japonicum Thunb

Three new triterpenoids, (3β,8β,14α,21α)‐26,27‐dinoronocerane‐3,8,14,21‐tetrol ( 1 ), (3β,8β,14α,21β)‐26,27‐dinoronocerane‐3,8,14,21‐tetrol ( 2 ), and lycopodiin A ( 3 ), together with four known compounds, lycoclavanol ( 4 ), lycoclaninol ( 5 ), α‐onocerin ( 6 ), and 3‐epilycoclavanol ( 7 ), were isolated from Lycopodium japonicum Thunb (Lycopodiaceae). Their structures were established by means of spectroscopic analyses. Compounds 3 and 7 showed moderate antitumor activity. Compounds 4 and 6 exhibited acetylcholinesterase inhibition activity.     

Decomposition of Toluene and Acetone in Packed Dielectric Barrier Discharge Reactors

The influences of TiO₂ catalytic material and glass pellet packing on the decomposition efficiency of toluene and acetone in air by dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) reactors were experimentally investigated in this study. The effects of both packing materials on the formation of byproducts such as CO and CO₂ were also evaluated. Experimental results indicate that the introduction of glass materials into the plasma zone of a wire-tube reactor would improve the decomposition efficiency of toluene and acetone compared to a nonpacked reactor. The apparent decomposition rate constant of a glass packed-bed reactor was 4.5–4.8 times greater than that of a nonpacked reactor. The results also indicate that the decomposition rate constant of toluene was approximately 2.6 times higher than that of acetone no matter which type reactor was utilized. The application of TiO₂ coated pellets in DBD reactors will enforce the hydrocarbon byproducts to further be oxidized to CO₂, notwithstanding, it will not significantly improve the performance of the reactors in the decomposition of toluene and acetone, and in the formation of CO. The results show that the best selectivity of CO₂ for acetone decomposition in a TiO₂ coated pellets packed-bed reactor was approximately 40% higher than that in a glass packed-bed reactor.     

Semi-classical study of the molecular dissociation: H2 + He

Accurate vibrational wave functions and a state-dependent model interaction potential were used in the study, within the framework of a semi-classical theory, of the vibrational excitation and dissociation of the hydrogen molecule in collinear collisions with the helium atom. A molecule initially in the excited state is shown to be very efficient in energy transfer and twice more likely to be further excited than to be de-excited. The change in the population distribution among the vibrational states at the first few collisions was analyzed. It is shown that the population of the first vibrational excited state ψ₁ reaches its maximum after the very first collision and that of ψ₂ after the second. It is also found that at a sufficiently high collision energy, ψ₅ is the most efficient state in dissociation at the second collision while ψ₆ contributes most at the third collision.     

Studies on the Synthesis and Thermodynamic Stability of Two Multidentate Ligands 2,9-disubstituted 1,10-phenanthroline

Two multidentate ligands: N,N′-di-(propionic acid-2′-yl-)-2,9-di-aminomethylphenanthroline (L₁) and N,N′-di-(3′-methylbutyric acid-2′-yl-)-2,9-di-amino-methylphenanthroline (L₂) were synthesized and fully characterized by ¹H NMR and elemental analysis. The binding ability of L₁ and L₂ to metal ions such as M(II) (M = Cu, Zn, Co and Ni) and Ln(III) (Ln = La, Nd, Sm, Eu, and Gd) has been investigated by potentiometric titration in aqueous solution and 0.1 mol dm⁻³KNO₃ at 25.0 ± °C. In view of the structure of L₁ and L₂, mononuclear metal complexes can be formed in solution. The stability constants of binary complexes of ligands L1 and L2 with metal ions M(II) and Ln(III) have been determined respectively and further discussed.     

Simultaneous Determination of Aromatic Amines by Liquid Chromatography Coupled with Carbon Nanotubes/Poly (3-methylthiophene) Modified Dual-Electrode

Liquid chromatography with amperometric detection (LC-AD) is developed and applied to simultaneously determine five aromatic amines. In the LC-AD, a new carbon nanotubes/poly(3-methylthiophene) modified dual-electrode is fabricated and then used as the working electrode. It is found that this chemically modified electrode (CME) exhibits efficiently electrocatalytic oxidation for aromatic amines with relatively high sensitivity, stability and long-life. Thus, lower detection in LC-AD can be achieved, which are 4.0 × 10^–8 mol L^–1 for aniline, 1.6 ×10^–7 mol L^–1 for 4-nitroaniline, 1.0 × 10^–7 mol L^–1 for 4-chloroaniline, 1.5 × 10^–7 mol L^–1 for 1-naphthylamine, 1.7 × 10^–7 mol L^–1 for 2-bromoaniline. The recoveries of the five analytes are also determined, which range between 0.95 and 1.05 for drinking water, 0.86 and 1.10 for the LiWa River water.     

Effect of additives upon Raney-Nickel alloy catalysts

Addition of small amounts of copper to Raney Ni increases its activity for hydrogenation of crotonaldehyde and its selectivity for C=O bond hydrogenation. Higher amounts lead to higher selectivity but lower activity. The coordination chemical approach to catalysis was used to explain this result.
