Adsorption voltammetry of the scandium-alizarin red S complex onto a carbon paste electrode

For the first time, a new method is described for the determination of scandium based on the cathodic adsorptive stripping of the scandium-alizarin red S complex onto a carbon paste electrode. The second-order derivative linear scan voltammograms of the complex are recorded by use of model JP-303 polarographic analyzer from 0.0 to -1.0 V (versus SCE). Optimum conditions are found to be: an acetic acid (0.36 mol l(-1))-potassium biphthalate (0.064 mol l(-1)) buffer solution (pH 4.0) containing 2.0x10(-5) mol l(-1) alizarin red S, a preconcentration potential of 0.0 V, a preconcentration time of 60 s, a rest time of 10 s and a scan rate of 100 mV s(-1). The results show that the complex can be adsorbed on the surface of a carbon paste electrode, yielding one peak at -0.58 V, corresponding to the reduction of alizarin red S in the complex at the electrode. The detection limit is found to be 6.0x10(-10) mol l(-1) for 3 min of preconcentration time. The linear range is 1.0x10(-9) to 4.0x10(-7) mol l(-1). Application of the procedure to the determination of scandium in the ore samples gave good results.     

Preparation and Characterization of Nanoscopic Organic Semiconductor of Oxovanadium Phthalocyanine

Nanoscopic particles of oxovanadium phthalocyanine (VOPc, phase-II) with different particle sizes are prepared by aggregation of VOPc molecules in the presence of surfactants for the first time. A size effect in the region of nanoscale was observed in the UV-visible spectra. The photoconductivity of the nanoscopic VOPc is much higher than that of bulk VOPc.

提高大分子Fullerene含量的有效方法

通过用掺有异相物质的石墨电极进行电弧反应，所得的混合物中大分子Ｆｕｌｌｅｒｅｎｅ的含量在１０％以上，为进一步分离，提纯以及深入研究大分子Ｆｕｌｌｅｒｅｎｅ打下了基础。研究发现，阳极材料中完整石墨结构的存在是生成Ｆｕｌｌｅｒｅｎｅ的必要条件，异相物质的存在为Ｆｕｌｌｅｒｅｎｅ的生长提供了热的载体，从而使产物中大分子Ｆｕｌｌｅｒｅｎｅ的含量增加。     

Synthesis of Calix[4]arene Derivatives with NLO Properties

The new chromophore compounds with NLO properties were prepared by Knoevenagel condensation from forrnyl or diformyl calix[4/arene and isophorone derivatives in the presence of piperidine and acetic acid, respectively. In these chromophore calix[4]arenes, the ring locked trienes were employed as the conjugation bridge and electron acceptor in D-π-A units. The NMR spectra demonstrated that they existed in a cone conformation and consequently non-conjugated D-π-A units could be oriented at nearly the same direction.

Organolithium-mediated diversification of peptide thiazoles

[Reaction: see text] We report a one-step, racemization-free method for the diversification of peptide thiazoles via direct lithiation of the thiazole ring. The method is compatible with N-Boc, N-trityl, carboxylic ester, and carboxamide protecting groups and has been used to directly functionalize the thiazole ring of cyclopeptide natural products.     

Improving the quality of 3D-QSAR by using flexible-ligand receptor models

To address the problems associated with molecular conformations and alignments in the 3D-QSAR studies, we have developed the Flexible Ligand - Atomic Receptor Model (FLARM) 2.0 method. The FLARM 2.0 method has three unique features as compared to other pseudoreceptor model methods: (1) the training ligands are flexibly optimized inside the receptors to achieve minimal docking energies; (2) the receptor atoms are spatially moveable in the process of genetic evolving in order to avoid improper initial receptor shapes; and (3) void receptor sites are specially favored in order to obtain open receptor models that allow large gaps. Advantages of an open model include less noise information, a smaller risk of overfitting, and ease of locating the key interaction sites. The latter two features, inherited from the previous FLARM 1.0 method, can improve the predictive ability of the 3D-QSAR models, while the first feature is newly implemented to relieve the uncertainty caused by improper conformation and alignment. Three FLARM 2.0 case studies were performed, and the results show that FLARM 2.0 models are highly predictive and robust. FLARM 2.0 pseudoreceptor models can correspond well with the pharmacophore models and/or the binding sites of the real protein receptors.
