Comparison of Py*+/dU*- charge transfer state dynamics in 5-(1-pyrenyl)-2'-deoxyuridine nucleoside conjugates with amido-, ethylenyl-, and ethynyl linkers

Femtosecond, picosecond, and nanosecond transient absorbance (TA) and picosecond emission kinetics results are presented for three 5-(1-pyrenyl)-2'-deoxyuridine nucleosides each with a different two-atom linker joining pyrenyl C-1 to uracil C-5. The linkers are respectively -NHCO-, -(CH(2))(2)-, and -C[triple bond]C- for PAdU, PEdU, and PYdU. For all three nucleoside conjugates, most conformers undergo intramolecular charge transfer (CT) from their pyrenyl (1)(pi,pi) excited states to form Py(*+)/dU(*-) CT products in ultrashort times: 相似文献   

Studies of Japanese lacquer: Urushiol dimerization by the coupling reaction between urushiol quinone and a triolefinic component of urushiol

Previously, the formation of urushiol quinone from urushiol was demonstrated in the laccase-catalyzed oxidation process of the sap of the Japanese lacquer tree (Rhus vernicifera D.C.) or of lacquer formed from it. This paper presents the results of the investigation on the participation of urushiol quinone in the oxidative polymerization and crosslinking of the sap or the lacquer. The polymeric urushiol was obtained by the fractionation of the mildly oxidized sap (Japanese lacquer), and a specific dimeric urushiol was isolated from it by thin-layer chromatography (TLC). Structural analysis of the dimer illustrated that it has a conjugated triene structure and may be formed by a coupling reaction between urushiol quinone and a triolefinic component of urushiol. Further support for this was given by the spectroscopic study of the reaction between 4-tert-butyl-o-quinone and the triolefinic component of dimethylurushiol, and by the isolation and identification of the coupling product between them.

聚丙烯熔体的零切变粘度与粘均分子量的关系

<正> 零切变粘度η_0是聚丙烯熔体流变性能的一个基本物理量,零切变粘度-分子量关系不仅具有理论上的兴趣,而且也有较大的实用意义。在文献中零切变粘度通常都是用毛细管粘度计数据外推求得的,但是由于聚丙烯熔体有较强的非牛顿性,即使在毛细管粘度计测量下限测得的粘度仍表现出明显的切变速率依赖性。因此,难于用外推的方法     

Density functional study of HO(H2O)n (n = 1–3) clusters

The hydrogen bonding complexes HO(H₂O)_n (n = 1–3) were completely investigated in the present study using DFT and MP2 methods at varied basis set levels from 6‐31++G(d,p) to 6‐311++G(2d,2p). For n = 1 two, for n = 2 two, and for n = 3 five reasonable geometries are considered. The optimized geometric parameters and interaction energies for various complexes at different levels are estimated. The infrared spectrum frequencies and IR intensities of the most stable structures are reported. Finally, thermochemistry studies are also carried out. The results indicate that the formation and the number of hydrogen bonding have played an important role in the structures and relative stabilities of different complexes. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Enhanced Acid/Base Catalysis in High Temperature Liquid Water

High temperature liquid water (HTLW), as an environmentally benign medium, has drawn increasing attention for organic chemical reactions and biomass conversion1-3. HTLW has a strong tendency to ionize and can act as an acid and/or base catalyst. In addition, HTLW can dissolve organic compounds to some extent allowing for a homogenous reaction within an aqueous phase. Extensive researches4-10 have been pursued on acid/base-catalysis reactions in HTLW without addition of acid or base. Howe…     

Pulse plating effect on microstructure and corrosion properties of Zn–Ni alloy coatings

The influence of pulse plating parameters on the surface morphology, grain size, lattice imperfection and corrosion properties of Zn–Ni alloy has been studied. The coatings were electrodeposited in an alkaline cyanide-free solution. AFM was applied for surface morphology examination, XRD measurements were carried out for phase composition and texture analysis, electron probe microanalysis was used for alloy chemical composition studies, while electrochemical techniques were applied for corrosion performance evaluation. The pulse plated Zn–Ni coatings appeared to consist of the γ-Zn₂₁Ni₅ phase and the composition of the alloy depended on the plating parameters. The grain size, lattice imperfection and homogeneity of grain distribution were established to be the main factors determining corrosion behaviour of the coating.

Gas chromatographic determination of aldicarb and its metabolites in urine

A method is described for the determination of aldicarb and its metabolites (the sulphoxide and sulphone) in urine by gas chromatography with flame photometric detection (GC-FPD). The sample was concentrated with a column containing activated charcoal and Florisil, and then eluted with dichloromethane-acetone (1:1, v/v). The aldicarb and aldicarb sulphoxide in the eluate solution were oxidized to aldicarb sulphone and the total sulphone concentration was determined by GC-FPD after extraction with dichloromethane and clean-up with an activated charcoal column. The detection limit was 0.0024 mg/l. The mean recoveries from spiked urine in the range 0.04-0.12 mg/l were 90.9%, 86.6%, 92.6% for aldicarb, aldicarb sulphoxide and aldicarb sulphone, respectively.

Enantioselective iodolactonization catalyzed by chiral quaternary ammonium salts derived from cinchonidine

Chiral quaternary ammonium salts derived from cinchonidine have been applied to catalyze the stereoselective iodolactonizations of trans-5-aryl-4-pentenoic acids leading to a mixture of two regioselectively iodolactonized products with fair to excellent yield (37-98%) and moderate enantioselectivity (exo = 42.0% ee, endo = 31.0% ee) under mild conditions. This work is the first example of asymmetric iodolactonization reaction in the presence of less than a stoichiometric amount of chiral reagent.
