Electronic structures and nonlinear optical properties of trinuclear transition metal clusters M-(mu-S)-M' (M = Mo,W; M' = Cu,Ag, Au)

A series of trinuclear metal clusters MS4(M'PPh3)2(M'PPh3) (M = Mo, W; M' = Cu, Ag, Au) have been studied using the density functional theory (DFT) method. The static polarizabilities and hyperpolarizabilities of the model clusters have been calculated using the finite-field (F-F) method. The model clusters, divided into two groups, are alike in the structure of two fragments of rhombic units M-(mu-S)2-M' (M = Mo, W; M' = Cu, Ag, Au), perpendicular to each other, which are joined by sharing the bridge metal M. It is the charge transfer from one of these moieties to the other in these characteristic sulfido-transitional metal cores that is responsible for the polarizabilities and hyperpolarizabilities. This kind of electronic delocalization, different from that of the planar pi-system, is interesting and warrants further investigation. The structural effects on properties are important. In these models, considerable third-order nonlinearities are exhibited. The element substitution effect of Mo and W is weak, while that of Cu and Ag is relatively substantial. An overall order is gamma xxxx(Mo-Ag) > gamma xxxx(W-Ag) > gamma xxxx(Mo-Au) > gamma xxxx(W-Au) > gamma xxxx (Mo-Cu) > gamma xxxx(W-Cu) and gamma av(Mo-Ag) approximately gamma av(W-Ag) > gamma av(Mo-Au) approximately gamma av(W-Au) approximately gamma av (Mo-Cu) approximately gamma av(W-Cu).     

A novel layered bimetallic phosphite intercalating with organic amines: Synthesis and characterization of Co(H2O)4Zn4(HPO3)6·C2N2H10

A new layered cobalt-zinc phosphite, Co(H₂O)₄Zn₄(HPO₃)₆·C₂N₂H₁₀ has been synthesized in the presence of ethylenediamine as the structure-directing agent. The compound crystallizes in the monoclinic system, space group Cc (No. 9), a=18.2090(8), b=9.9264(7), c=15.4080(7) Å, β=114.098(4)°, V=2542.3(2) Å³, Z=4, R=0.0323, wR=0.0846. The structure consists of ZnO₄ tetrahedra, CoO₆ octahedra and HPO₃ pseudopyramids through their vertices forming bimetallic phosphite layers parallel to the ab plane. Organic cations, which reside between the inorganic layers, are mobile and can be exchanged by NH₄⁺ cations without the collapse of the framework.     

Simulation of water cluster assembly on a graphite surface

The assembly of small water clusters (H2O)n, n = 1-6, on a graphite surface is studied using a density functional tight-binding method complemented with an empirical van der Waals force correction, with confirmation using second-order M?ller-Plesset perturbation theory. It is shown that the optimized geometry of the water hexamer may change its original structure to an isoenergy one when interacting with a graphite surface in some specific orientation, while the smaller water cluster will maintain its cyclic or linear configurations (for the water dimer). The binding energy of water clusters interacting with graphite is dependent on the number of water molecules that form hydrogen bonds, but is independent of the water cluster size. These physically adsorbed water clusters show little change in their IR peak position and leave an almost perfect graphite surface.     

Characterization of the Phosphoryl-Nitrogen Linkages in Histone H4

In earlier work we nave described and partially characterized two histone kinases from regenerating rat liver and other tissues which catalyze the transfer of the γ-phosphoryl group from ATP to histones. The histone phosphates thus formed were observed to be acid-labile and base-stable. In the present study we report on the specificity of one of these enzymes, namely, the kinase which is optimally active at pH 9. This enzyme appears to be relatively specific for the two histidine residues of histone H4. These histidines occur at positions 18 and 75, and both are phosphorylated. However, when regenerating rat liver was the source of enzyme, the product was 1-phosphohistidine, whereas the enzyme from Walker-256 carcinosarcoma catalyzed the formation of 3-phosphohistidine.     

Synthetic approaches to 2-substituted 1-oxo- and 3-oxotetrahydroisoquinolines

2-Substituted homophthalimides 2a-c were reduced regioselectively with sodium borobydride to carbinol-lactam intermediates 3a-c , which were dehydrated, followed by hydrogenation, to give 1-oxo-tetrabydroisoquinolines or 3,4-dihydroisoquinolin-1(2H)ones 5a-c . The isomeric 3-oxo-tetrahydro-isoquinolines or 1,4-dihydroisoquinolin-3(2H)-ones 8a-i were obtained in satisfactory yields via heating 3-isochromanone ( 6 ) with the corresponding amines 7a-i in the presence of aluminum chloride.

Chemistry of O-Benzoquinones and Masked O-Benzoquinones I. Diels-Alder Reactions of O-Benzoquinones with Dimethyl Acetylenedicarboxylate and Phenylacetylene

Diels-Alder reactions of six o-benzoquinones with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate has been examined. The yields of adducts vary with the natures of the o-benzoquinones, 3,4-Di-n-propyl-(1c), 3,6-di-n-propyl (1d). 3. 4-diallyl-(1e) and 3, 6-diallyl-o-benzoquinone (1f) are found to give bicyclic a-diketones exclusively without the formation of 1,4-dioxine derivatives, the yields ranging from 20 to 70%. In the case of 4, 5-dimethoxy-o-benzoquinone, dimethyl 4, 5-dimethoxyphthalate is produced in 42% yield, presumably derived from the decomposition of the corresponding initially formed α-diketone. 3, 6-Di-n-propyl-4, 5-dimethoxy-o-benzoquinone deteriorates without addition to dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate upon heating. The additions of o-benzoquinones 1c , 1d and 1f to phenylacetylene are also studied. The yields of adducts, α-diketones, range from 23% to 82%.     

安培检测芯片毛细管电泳及其初步应用

An end-channel amperometric detector with a guide tube for working electrode was designed and integrated on a home-made glass microchip. The guide tube was directly patterned and fabricated at the end of the detection reservoir, which made the fixation and alignment of working electrode relatively easy. The fabrication was carried out in a two-step etching process. A 30 μm carbon fiber microdisk electrode and Pt cathode were also integrated onto the amperometric detector. The baseline separation of dopamine (DA), catechol (CA) and epinephrine (EP) was achieved within 80 s. Relative standard deviations of not more than 5.2% were obtained for both peak currents and migration times of DA and CA (n=5). Using standard adding method, DA in tLrine and plasma samples was detected. The recoveries were in the range of 83%—103%.     

FFC-1离子交换纤维物理化学性能的研究

利用扫描电镜、热失重-红外、元素分析、低温氮吸附等技术和化学手段对聚羧酸基FFC-1离子交换纤维的结构与性能特点等进行了系统研究．结果表明：FFC-1离子交换纤维为含适量酰肼类交联键的聚羧酸(钠)型离子交换材料，外比表面积大和传质距离短是其反应动力学性能优异的主要原因，FFC-1纤维具有良好的化学与热稳定性。在5mol/L硫酸、硝酸、盐酸和2mol／L氢氧化钠溶液中浸泡，交换容量未见明显降低。但过氧化氢溶液对其功能基有明显破坏，CO2为FFC-1纤维在高温区间(300℃～350℃)的主要分解产物。     

芥子气模拟剂2-氯乙基乙基硫醚的光催化降解

利用连续流动微反、原位红外和GC/MS等手段考察了芥子气模拟剂2-氯乙基乙基硫醚（2-CEES）在P25 TiO2上的光催化降解反应,证实CO2和H2O是这个反应的最终产物.详细的跟踪分析表明,除了CO2和H2O外,在反应的气相混合物中可检测到C2H4、CH3CHO、CH4、CO、HCl和H2S；少量小分子的羧酸、醚和砜；微量C2H5SC2H5、C2H5S2C2H5、C2H5SC2H4Cl和CH2ClCH2Cl等中间产物;在反应后的催化剂表面可检测到C2H5S2C2H5、C2H5SC2H4OH、C4H9S2C2H5和C2H5S2C2H4OH、等物.根据这些结果提出了2-CEES光催化降解的反应机理,推断2-CEES的光催化降解涉及脱氯、C－S键断裂、有机硫化物光聚合和裂解等复杂过程最终转化为CO2和H2O.认为各种硫物种在表面的积聚引起了催化剂的缓慢失活.
