Dispersed fluorescence spectroscopy of jet-cooled HCF and DCF: Vibrational structure of the X 1A' state

We recorded dispersed fluorescence (DF) spectra following excitation of the pure bending levels 2(0) (n) and the combination states 1(0) (1)2(0) (n) and 2(0) (n)3(0) (1) in the A 1A"<--X 1A' system of HCF and DCF. Spectra were measured with a 0.3 m spectrograph equipped with a gated intensified charge coupled device (CCD) detector and obtained under jet-cooled conditions using a pulsed discharge source. The DF spectra reveal rich detail concerning the vibrational structure of the X state up to 10 000 cm(-1). For HCF, resonances among the nearly degenerate levels 1(1)2n, 2n+13(1), and 2n+2 produce a polyadlike structure in the spectrum, and the usual effective spectroscopic Hamiltonian (Dunham expansion) poorly reproduces the experimental term energies. In contrast, this Hamiltonian works well for the term energies of DCF. Density functional calculations of the ground state vibrational frequencies were performed; the results are in excellent agreement with the experimentally derived vibrational parameters. The search for perturbations involving the low-lying a 3A" state is described.

Adenanthusone,a New Ursane Type Nortriterpenoid from Isodon adenanthus

A new ursane‐type nortriterpenoid, adenanthusone (=(11α,12α)‐4‐demethyl‐11,12‐epoxy‐3,13‐dihydroxy‐2‐oxoursa‐3,20(30)‐diene‐28‐oic acid γ‐lactone; 1 ) was isolated from Isodon adenanthus. Its structure was determined by NMR spectra and X‐ray crystallographic diffraction analysis. The biogenetic implication of the nortriterpene is discussed.     

Novel Water Soluble Fluorescent Trimethine Indocyanines Containing N-ρ-Carboxybenzyl Group

Indocyanine dyes as fluorescent labeling reagents have been used in bioanalysis1,2. Arylsulfonate indocyanine dyes 1d and 1e developed by Waggoner A. S. et al.3,4 have excellent fluorescent properties combined with good aqueous solubility, are a new generation of fluorescent label compounds for proteins, oligonucleotides and other compounds containing hydroxyl, mercaptol or primary amine groups5. However, photostability of these dyes has been a problem. Z. G. YAO et al.6 reported that p…     

Superconvergence of numerical solutions to weakly singular Volterra integro-differential equations

Summary We discuss the application of a class of spline collocation methods to first-order Volterra integro-differential equations (VIDEs) which contain a weakly singular kernel (t–s)^– with 0<<1. It will be shown that superconvergence properties may be obtained by using appropriate collocation parameters and graded meshes. The grading exponents of graded meshes used are not greater thanm (the polynomial degree) which is independent of . This is in contrast to the theories of spline collocation methods for Volterra (or Fredholm) integral equation of the second kind. Numerical examples are given to illustrate the theoretical results.
