Reactivity of dioxoruthenium(VI) porphyrins toward amines. Synthesis and characterization of bis(arylamine)ruthenium(II), bis(arylamido)- and bis(diphenylamido)ruthenium(IV), and oxo(tert-butylimido)ruthenium(VI) porphyrins

Reactions of dioxoruthenium(VI) porphyrins, [Ru(VI)O2(Por)], with p-chloroaniline, trimethylamine, tert-butylamine, p-nitroaniline, and diphenylamine afforded bis(amine)ruthenium(II) porphyrins, [Ru(II)(Por)(L)2] (L-p-ClC6H4NH2, Me3N, Por=TTP, 4-Cl-TPP; L=tBuNH2, Por = TPP, 3,4,5-MeO-TPP, TTP, 4-Cl-TPP, 3,5-Cl-TPP) and bis(amido)ruthenium(IV) porphyrins, [Ru(IV)(Por)(X)2] (X=p-NO2C6H4NH, Por=TTP, 4-Cl-TPP; X = Ph2N, Por = 3,4,5-MeO-TPP, 3,5-Cl-TPP), respectively. Oxidative deprotonation of [Ru(II)(Por)(NH2-p-C6H4Cl)2] in chloroform by air generated bis(arylamido)ruthenium(IV) porphyrins, [RuIV(Por)(NH-p-C6H4Cl)2] (Por=TTP. 4-Cl-TPP). Oxidation of [RuII(Por)-(NH2tBu)2] by bromine in dichloromethane in the presence of tert-butylamine and traces of water produced oxo(imido)ruthenium(VI) porphyrins, [RuVI-O(Por)(NtBu)] (Por=TPP, 3,4,5-MeO-TPP, TTP, 4-Cl-TPP, 3,5-Cl-TPP). These new classes of ruthenium complexes were characterized by 1H NMR, IR, and UV/visible spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, and elemental analysis. The structure of [Ru(IV)(TTP)(NH-p-C6H4Cl)2 . CH2Cl2 was determined by X-ray crystallography. The Ru-N bond length and the Ru-N-C angle of the Ru-NHAr moiety are 1.956(7) A and 135.8(6) degrees, respectively.

The influence of polyelectrolyte charges of polyurethane membrane surface on the growth of human endothelial cells

A novel technique to introduce free amino groups onto polyester scaffolds via aminolyzing the ester groups with diamine has been developed recently. The introduction of the free amino groups on these polyester surfaces provides us the possibility to modify polymer surface in a simpler manner, e.g. layer-by-layer assembly of charged species. By this technique, many negatively and positively charged biopolymers were deposited alternatively on polyurethane surface. The deposition process was monitored by fluorescence spectroscopy and advancing contact angle measurements. The result of human endothelial cells cultured in vitro showed that cells on negatively charged surface could not spread and flatten well due to the electrostatic repulsion. The lower attachment ratio induced the lower proliferation ratio. However, after the surface charge was inversed by collagen, both attachment and proliferation ratios increased to different extent. Observed under SEM, cells also presented a flat and spreading morphology.     

Reversible anion exchanges between the layered organic-inorganic hybridized architectures: syntheses and structures of manganese(II) and copper(II) complexes containing novel tripodal ligands

Six noninterpenetrating organic-inorganic hybridized coordination complexes, [Mn(3)(2)(H(2)O)(2)](ClO(4))(2).2 H(2)O (5), [Mn(3)(2)(H(2)O)(2)](NO(3))(2) (6), [Mn(3)(2)(N(3))(2)].2 H(2)O (7), [Cu(3)(2)(H(2)O)(2)](ClO(4))(2) (8), [Mn(4)(2)(H(2)O)(SO(4))].CH(3)OH.5 H(2)O (9) and [Mn(4)(2)](ClO(4))(2) (10) were obtained through self-assembly of novel tripodal ligands, 1,3,5-tris(1-imidazolyl)benzene (3) and 1,3-bis(1-imidazolyl)-5-(imidazol-1-ylmethyl)benzene (4) with the corresponding metal salts, respectively. Their structures were determined by X-ray crystallography. The results of structural analysis of complexes 5, 6, 7, and 8 with rigid ligand 3 indicate that their structures are mainly dependant on the nature of the organic ligand and geometric need of the metal ions, but not influenced greatly by the anions and metal ions. While in complexes 9 and 10, which contain the flexible ligand 4, the counteranion plays an important role in the formation of the frameworks. Entirely different structures of complexes 5 and 10 indicate that the organic ligands greatly affect the structures of assemblies. Furthermore, in complexes 5 and 6, the counteranions located between the cationic layers can be exchanged by other anions. Reversible anion exchanges between complexes 5 and 6 without destruction of the frameworks demonstrate that 5 and 6 can act as cationic layered materials for anion exchange, as determined by IR spectroscopy, elemental analyses, and X-ray powder diffraction.     

Reaction mechanism studies on isoquinoline with hydroxyl radical in aqueous solutions

The reaction mechanism between isoquinoline and ·OH radical in aqueous dilute solutions under different conditions was studied by pulse radiolysis. The main characteristic peaks in these transient absorption spectra were attributed and the growth-decay trends of several transient species were investigated. Under neutral or alkaline conditions, the reaction of ·OH radical and isoquinoline produces OH-adducts with respective rate constants of 3.4 × 10⁹ and 6.6 × 10⁹ mol⁻¹ · dm³ · s⁻¹ while under acidic conditions, the isoquinoline was firstly protonated and then ·OH added to the benzene ring and produced protonated isoquinoline OH-adducts with a rate constant of 3.9 × 10⁹ mol⁻¹ · dm³ · s⁻¹. With a better understanding on radiolysis of isoquinoline, this study is of help for its degradation and for environmental protection. __________ Translated from Journal of Fudan University (Natural Science), 2006, 45(6): 774–778 [8BD1;81EA: 590D;65E6;5B66;62A5;(自然科学版)]     

Laser flash photolysis of fullerols of C60 and of C70 in aqueous solutions

Fullerols of C₆₀ and of C₇₀ [C₆₀(OH)_n, C₇₀(OH)_m], water-soluble fullerene derivatives, unlike some other fullerene derivatives (such as C₆₀ (C₄H₆O), C₆₀ (C₃H₇N) and C₆₀ [C(COOEt)₂]_x), do not result in excited triplet state but in ionization via monophotonic process in aqueous solutions with 248 nm laser. The quantum yields of formation of hydrated electron (Φ_e ⁻) are determined to be 0.08 and 0.11 for fullerols of C₆₀ and of C₇₀ respectively at room temperature (ca. 15°C) with KI solution used as reference. By laser flash photolysis and oxidation of sulfate radical anion SO₄ ⁻, the fullerol radical cation or neutral radical of C₆₀ is confirmed to be existent and the transient absorption spectra of fullerol radical cation of C₇₀ are observed for the first time.

Photochemically Induced Solid-State Degradation, Condensation, and Rearrangement Reactions in Lignin Model Compounds and Milled Wood Lignin

Abstract— Milled wood lignin produced from alkaline hydrogen peroxide-bleached softwood thermomechanical pulp (TMP) fibers was adsorbed on pure cellulose and irradiated for variable periods of time under oxygen and/or nitrogen. The absolute amounts of β-O-4 ethers, phenolic hydroxyl groups, carboxylic acids and various condensed phenolic units were quantified, nondestructively, using ³¹P NMR spectroscopy. Photoirradiation was found to severely cleave the β-O-4 ethers present in lignin with the concomitant formation of new phenolic units. The rate of this cleavage was found to be faster under oxygen than under nitrogen. The catalytic role of oxygen can be rationalized by invoking the formation of peroxy free radicals that may initiate new sites of radical generation ( e.g. ketyl radicals) within the lignin causing the subsequent breakdown of the β-O-4 linkage. The photoirradiation was found to cause a net increase of the C₅-related condensed phenolic units in lignin. Among these, C_α-C₅ and/ or C_β-C₅ phenolic moieties were found to predominate. Similar irradiation of a binary mixture of model compounds resembling structures present in softwood lignin resulted in 18 products that were identified and quantified using gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry. The photochemical products obtained supported the phenacyl and ketyl mechanistic pathways to pho-toyellowing, whereas the detection of β-5 coupling products (common in both the model compound and milled wood lignin studies) may point a new avenue toward the formation of light-induced products that has not been previously considered in the solid state.

A novel lyotropic liquid crystalline material poly(aryl ether ketone) copolymer containing phthalazinone moiety and biphenyl mesogen named P-8515 was developed by a mild solution polycondensation method. The molecular weight (M_n) was 53,000 and the value of molecular weight distribution index (MDI) was 2.49 detected by GPC. The critical concentration (C^∗) of P-8515 was 36 wt% and P-8515 exhibited characteristic nematic lyotropic liquid crystalline phases in NMP solution at different concentrations and the phase morphology changed to a typical threaded texture when shear forces were induced from PLM observations. The T_g value was 238 °C and the value for 5% weight loss temperature was 515 °C in nitrogen from DSC and TGA determinations, respectively.
