冷态德士古气化炉流场与停留时间分布的研究

测定了德士古气化炉的冷态速度分布和停留时间分布。结果表明：德士古气化炉内在轴向２．５～３．０倍直径范围内存在回流，最大回流量为射流量的３．５倍左右；在平均停留时间之前，已有５０％左右的物料逸出炉外。本文指出，德士古气化炉中存在的问题，如结渣、耐火砖寿命短、有效气体成分偏低均与炉内流场有关。     

Surface effects on phase transition behavior and thermal polymerization of long-chain diynoic acids in micro DSC measurements

Effects of metal surfaces, such as aluminium, silver and gold, on the melting behavior and thermal polymerization of long-chain diynoic acids having a diacetylene group at different positions were investigated by thermal analyses using DSC, TG and other methods. The surface effects of metals were significant in the order of Ag, Al and Au. These effects are attributable to the anchoring of carboxyl group on the surface by chemisorption, which leads to unfavorable condition for polymerization of heptadeca-2,4-diynoic acid. In the case of tricosa-10,12-diynoic acid, containing a flexible methylene chain, inserted between COOH and C≡C?C≡C groups, the anchoring of COOH on the metal surface causes rather favorable effect on the polymerization.     

1,2-Diarylethylenediamines as pre-column fluorescence derivatization reagents in high-performance liquid chromatographic determination of catecholamines in urine and plasma

Meso- and dl-1,2-diarylethylenediamines (14 species) were evaluated for pre-column fluorescence derivatization reagents in the high-performance liquid chromatographic determination of catecholamines (norepinephrine, epinephrine and dopamine) in human urine and plasma. Of the compounds, meso-1,2-bis(4-methoxyphenyl)ethylenediamine was most preferable for all the catecholamines in terms of sensitivity and selectivity. The detection limit for each catecholamine is approximately 0.5 fmol in a 50-microliters injection volume.     

Transient Spectroscopic Properties of [60] Fullerene—Containing Cyclic Sulphoxide

The properties of the triplet excited state of [60] fullerene-containing cyclic sulphoxide have been investigated by time-resolved absorption spectroscopy. Transient absorption bands of [60] fullerene-containing cyclic sulphoxide showed two decay-components, which wrer attributed to triplet excited states of different spin multiplicity. The properties of photoexcited states of [60] fullerene-containing cyclic sulphoxide are also reported.     

Reactions of hole species in γ-irradiated KCl,KBr and KI with the emulsion of aniline and water

-Irradiated KCl, KBr and KI are dissolved separately in the emulsion of water and aniline. Halogens as radiolytic products are extracted in aniline forming stable halogen-aniline complexes. Hole species from V₂ and V₃ centers and free halogens trapped in crystalline salts are solvated first in water phase during dissolution and immediately form complexes with aniline. A typical vibrational structure of absorption bands around 300 nm is observed. The yields of halogens and thereby complexes are found to depend upon the concentration of F and hole centers and the mesh of the salt.     

Generation of chromioenamines by reduction of O-acetyloximes with chromium(II) and their application

Chromioenamines can be generated by treatment of O-acetyloximes with chromium(II) via two steps of one-electron reduction and successive isomerization, and the species react with aldehydes to give gamma-amino alcohols after reduction with LiAlH4.     

Prompt Gamma-Ray Analysis of Rats

Prompt -ray analysis with the internal monostandard method was used to organs taken from rats. After B or Cd was administered, the B/H and Cd/H contents ratios were determined in the brain, kidney, and liver to study their distribution and metabolism. Boron was distributed in all organs but metabolized quickly. Cd was slowly accumulated in the liver and kidneys during the 65 hours studied but no Cd was detected in the brain.     

A new series of antiallergic agents. I. Synthesis and activity of 11-(2-aminoethyl)thio-6,11-dihydrodibenz[b,e]oxepin derivatives.

A new series of 11-substituted 6,11-dihydrodibenz[b,e]oxepin derivatives was synthesized and evaluated for antiallergic activity. Convenient methods for the preparation of sulfides from alcohols were developed. Structure-activity relationships are described. Compound 7, 11-[2-(dimethylamin)ethyl]thio-6,11-dihydrodibenz[b,e] oxepin-2-carboxylic acid hydrochloride, was the most potent in the rat passive cutaneous anaphylaxis test (ED50 = 0.92 mg/kg p.o.). It had a potent inhibitory effect on anaphylactic bronchoconstriction in guinea pigs (ED50 = 0.029 mg/kg p.o.) and H1 receptor antagonistic effect (Ki = 14 nM) with few central nervous system side effects. Additionally, an antagonistic effect against prostaglandin D2-induced contraction of isolated guinea pig trachea (pA2 = 5.73) was an attractive mechanism of action of the new antiallergic agent. Compound 7 was selected for further evaluation as KW-4994.     

The nephritogenic glycopeptide from rat glomerular basement membrane. X. Synthesis of an N-triglycosyl dipeptide and characteristics of its cis-trans isomers.

Isomers of O-alpha-D-glucopyranosyl-(1----6)-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl- (1----6)-N-[L-aspart-1-oyl-(L-proline)-4-oyl]-alpha-D-glucopyranos ylamine have been prepared, as models for a derivative possibly present in the glomerular basement membrane of rats, by condensation of the corresponding dipeptide derivative (5) with triglycosylamine (4) in the presence of O,O-diethylcyanophosphonate, followed by deprotection of the trisaccharide-dipeptide derivative. During the deprotection process, cis- and trans-isomers containing proline were separated by silica gel column chromatography and also reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography.     

Interval estimation of the critical value in a general linear model

Summary This paper concerns interval estimation of the critical value θ which satisfies under the general linear model,Y _i =μ(x _i )+ε _i (i=1,2,···), where for and the functional forms off _j ^′ s are known. From an asymptotic expansion it is shown that, under reasonable conditions, the limiting distribution of is normal. Thus in the large-sample case a confidence interval for θ can be obtained. Such a result is useful when one is interested in carrying out a retrospective analysis rather than designing the experiment (as in the Kiefer-Wolfowitz procedure). In Section 3 a sequential procedure is considered for confidence intervals with fixed width 2d. It is shown that, for a given stopping variableN, is also asymptotically normal asd→0. Thus the coverage probability converges to 1−α (preassigned) asd→0. An example of application in estimating the phase parameter in circadian rhythms is given for the purpose of illustration.
