Chaotic electronic scattering with He(+)

We investigate classical electronic collisions with a He(+) ion. Scattering functions, such as the scattering angle, collisional time, or energy of the outgoing electron, all exhibit an interesting hierarchial self-similar structure, which can be interpreted in terms of the indefinite number of electronic returns to the vicinity of the nucleus, encounters between electrons, and Keplerian excursions of electrons during the collisional processes. Based on this mechanism a binary coding is introduced to organize the dynamics of this three-body system and to provide an understanding of the self-similarity among generations of scale magnification, which yields escape rates that vary with the sectional cut into the parameter space. The self-similarity displayed within a single generation, on the other hand, can be simply tied to the periods of the two independent electronic excursions. The physical interpretation and the symbolic dynamics introduced here are generally useful for three-body collisional systems, including atomic, molecular, or stellar collisions.     

Enhanced emission and its switching in fluorescent organic nanoparticles

A new class of organic nanoparticles (CN-MBE nanoparticles) with a mean diameter of ca. 30-40 nm, which exhibit a strongly enhanced fluorescence emission, were prepared by a simple reprecipitation method. CN-MBE (1-cyano-trans-1,2-bis-(4'-methylbiphenyl)ethylene) is very weakly fluorescent in solution, but the intensity is increased by almost 700 times in the nanoparticles. Enhanced emission in CN-MBE nanoparticles is attributed to the synergetic effect of intramolecular planarization and J-type aggregate formation (restricted excimer formation) in nanopaticles. On/off fluorescence switching for organic vapor was demonstrated with CN-MBE nanoparticles.     

Self-assembly of highly oriented one-dimensional h-WO3 nanostructures

A new self-assembled and highly oriented one-dimensional single-crystal nanostructure of WO3 with hexagonal form was successfully prepared by a mild, solution-based colloidal approach.     

Redetermination of (6R,7S,9S,11S)‐(–)‐sparteinium monoperchlorate

The structure of the title compound, C₁₅H₂₇N₂⁺·ClO₄^?, consists of a monoprotonated sparteinium cation and a perchlorate anion. The two tertiary N atoms of the cation, one perchlorate O atom and a H atom form a bifurcated hydrogen bond, the four hydrogen‐bonding atoms being nearly in the same plane.     

Syntheses and reactivity of the diselenido molybdenum-manganese complex CpMoMn(CO)5(mu-Se2)

Reaction of CpMoMn(CO)(8) with elemental selenium and Me(3)NO in the absence of light yielded the diselenido complex CpMoMn(CO)(5)(mu-Se(2)), 2. Compound 2 contains a bridging diselenido ligand lying perpendicular to the Mo-Mn bond, Mo-Mn = 2.8421(10) A. In the presence of room light, the reaction yielded the tetranuclear metal complex Cp(2)Mo(2)Mn(2)(CO)(7)(mu(3)-Se)(4), 3 (36% yield), and 2 (7% yield). Compound 2 reacted with ethylene to yield the ethanediselenato complex CpMoMn(CO)(5)(mu-SeCH(2)CH(2)Se), 4, by insertion of ethylene into the Se-Se bond. Compound 2 also reacted with (PPh(3))(2)Pt(PhC(2)Ph) and CpCo(CO)(2) to yield the complexes CpMoMnPt(PPh(3))(2)(CO)(5)(mu(3)-Se)(2), 5, and Cp(2)CoMoMn(CO)(5)(mu(3)-Se)(2), 6, respectively, by insertion of the metal groupings CpCo and Pt(PPh(3))(2) into the Se-Se bond of 2. The oxo compound Cp(2)CoMo(O)Mn(CO)(5)(mu(3)-Se)(2), 7, was obtained from 6 by decarbonylation at molybdenum by using Me(3)NO. The molecular structures of the complexes 2-7 were established by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses.     

Dynamic ultrasound-assisted extraction of polyphenols in tobacco

A novel extraction method, namely dynamic ultrasound-assisted extraction, is investigated. This technique is efficient with respect to both time and solvent consumption because it utilizes ultrasonic energy in dynamic mode during extraction. Polyphenols (chlorogenic acid, esculetin, rutin, scopoletin, and quercitrin) are extracted from a tobacco (Nicotina tobaccum L.) sample for 10 min with 6 mL of solvent. Fresh solvent is continuously pumped through the sample, with which the analytes can be rapidly extracted, and the possibility of degradation efficiently avoided. Methanol involving 0.5% w/v ascorbic acid was used as extraction solvent; optimal flow rate and extraction time were investigated. The extract was cleaned up by C18 disposable cartridge. The spiked and nonspiked tobacco samples were used for the evaluation of the proposed method. Recoveries obtained were varied from 96 to 108% and RSDs from 2.0 to 4.6%. This extraction technique was revealed to recover larger amounts of polyphenols from tobacco, compared to the static ultrasound-assisted extraction method.
