Potential energy of interaction between a fast multiply charged ion and crystal atoms with regard for the Pauli principle

Expressions for the potential energy of interaction between a fast neutral atom or a multiply charged ion and a crystal atom are obtained, both with and without regard for the Pauli principle. Results from computer simulation of the heating of silver ions with a fixed value of the charge state in passing through the (110) planar channel of a silicon crystal are presented. It is shown that the rate of dechanneling can be estimated by the form of the potential energy of interaction of an incident ion with a continuous potential of the planar crystal channel.     

Effects of <Emphasis Type="Italic">C</Emphasis>-, <Emphasis Type="Italic">P</Emphasis>-, <Emphasis Type="Italic">T</Emphasis>-symmetries violation in the polarized elastic electron-proton electroweak scattering

Analytical expressions are obtained for the angular distributions and spin asymmetries of the processes of elastic electromagnetic and electroweak scattering of high energy electrons on polarized/unpolarized proton target with account of C-, P- and T/CP-invariance violating anapole and electric dipole moments, as well as neutral weak electric, magnetic and axial form factors of the proton. Behavior of the P- and T- odd spin asymmetries is studied in dependence of the electron’s energy and scattering angle and proton form factors parameters.     

Synthesis and characterization of crown ether–containing N‐phosphorylated thioureas RC(S)NHP(O)(OiPr)2 (R = 1‐aza‐15‐crown‐5, 1‐aza‐12‐crown‐4) and their Co(II) and Ni(II) complexes

The reaction of the lithium salts of N‐phosphorylated thioureas RC(S)NHP(O)(OiPr)₂ (R = 1‐aza‐15‐crown‐5, HL ^I ; 1‐aza‐12‐crown‐4, HL ^II ) with Co(II) or Ni(II) leads to the chelate complexes [ ML ^I,II ₂ ]. The metal center is found in a tetrahedral ([ CoL ^I,II ₂ ]) or square planar ([ NiL ^I,II ₂ ]) O₂S₂ environment formed by the CS sulfur atoms and the PO oxygen atoms of two deprotonated ligands L . The molecular structure of [ CoL ^I ₂ ] was elucidated by X‐ray diffraction and the extraction properties of HL ^I,II and [ ML ^I,II ₂ ] toward alkali metal and ammonium picrates were investigated. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Intramolecular hydrogen bonding controls 1,3-N,S- vs. 1,5-S,S'-coordination in Ni(II) complexes of N-thiophosphorylated thioureas RNHC(S)NHP(S)(OiPr)2

Reaction of the deprotonated N-thiophosphorylated thioureas RNHC(S)NHP(S)(OiPr)(2) (R = Ph, HL(I); 2-MeC(6)H(4)-, HL(II); 2,6-Me(2)C(6)H(3)-, HL(III); 2,4,6-Me(3)C(6)H(2)-, HL(IV); Me-, HL(V)) with Ni(II) leads to complexes of the formula [NiL(I-V)(2)]. The molecular structures of the thioureas HL(II-V) and the complexes [NiL(II-V)(2)] in the solid were elucidated by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. In the complexes, the metal is found to be in a square planar trans-N(2)S(2) ([NiL(II-IV)(2)]) environment formed by the C=S sulfur atoms and the P-N nitrogen atoms, or in a square planar trans-S(2)S'(2) ([NiL(V)(2)]) environment formed by the C=S and P=S sulfur atoms of two deprotonated ligands. DFT calculations confirmed that the [Ni(L(II-IV)-N,S)(2)] isomers are more stable (by 16-21 kcal mol(-1)) than the corresponding [Ni(L(II-IV)-S,S')(2)] conformers. The main reason for higher stability of the 1,3-N,S vs. 1,5-S,S' isomers is the formation of intramolecular N-H···S=P hydrogen bonds. In solution the complexes [Ni(L(II-V)-N,S)(2)] have an exclusive 1,3-N,S coordination, while the compound [Ni(L(I)-N,S)(2)] exhibits two isomers in the (1)H and (31)P NMR spectra. The major species is assigned to the 1,3-N,S coordinated isomer, while the minor (～25%) signals are due to the 1,5-S,S' isomer. UV-Vis spectroscopic results are in line with this. The electrochemical measurements reveal reversible one-electron reduction and irreversible oxidations, both assigned to ligand-centred processes.     

Simple iterative algebras

Based on the notion of an ideal of an iterative algebra, developed earlier, we introduce the concept of a simple iterative algebra of functions of a k-valued logic, that is, an algebra freed of proper ideals. It is found out that every simple algebra is contained in a maximal algebra and is naturally associated with some permutation group on a finite set. We specify a number of conditions on a permutation group under which a corresponding algebra is said to be maximal and simple. This allows us to completely list the maximal simple algebras for the case where k<-4. Translated fromAlgebra i Logika, Vol. 37, No. 4, pp. 460–477, July–August, 1998.

An unprecedented trinuclear heteroleptic Ag^I complex was isolated using a stable multidentate 2,4,6‐tris(2‐pyrimidyl)‐1,3,5‐triazine (TPymT) ligand. The obtained compound is an efficient catalyst for the direct aziridination of terminal olefins.     

Novel Peptide Chemistry in Terrestrial Animals: Natural Luciferin Analogues from the Bioluminescent Earthworm Fridericia heliota

We report isolation and structure elucidation of AsLn5, AsLn7, AsLn11 and AsLn12: novel luciferin analogs from the bioluminescent earthworm Fridericia heliota. They were found to be highly unusual modified peptides, comprising either of the two tyrosine‐derived chromophores, CompX or CompY and a set of amino acids, including threonine, gamma‐aminobutyric acid, homoarginine, and unsymmetrical N,N‐dimethylarginine. These natural compounds represent a unique peptide chemistry found in terrestrial animals and rise novel questions concerning their biosynthetic origin.     

Membrane extraction of alkaline earth metal by phosphorylated azapodands

ABSTRACT

Membrane transport properties of the new lipophilic phosphorylated azapodands toward Сa(II), Ва (II), Mg(II), and Sr(II) were studied. The investigation of the processes of passive membrane ion transport showed the high values of the transfer flow of the alkaline earth metals’ ions with all carriers. It was found that N,N’-bis(di-p-tolylphosphorylmethyl)-1,8-diamino-3,6-dioxaoctane (I) is the most effective carrier among all compounds studied.
