Nonlinear direct inverse method: a shortcut method for simultaneous calibration and isotherm determination

This work addresses a way to combine isotherm determination and nonlinear calibration. In this method, like the classical inverse method, experimental elution profiles are compared with the results of a detailed model that accounts for nonlinearity in equilibrium, axial dispersion, and mass transfer kinetics. However, unlike the classical inverse method, the calibration of detector is carried out simultaneously with isotherm determination thereby reducing cost and saving time. In this study no limitation is imposed on the linearity of the detector signal or on the overlapping of elution profiles for the separation of enantiomers. The method has been experimentally validated for the separation of a mixture of guaifenesin enantiomers over a wide range of concentration.

(3, 3)-Ary Differential Rings

The main purpose of this paper is to introduce the concept of (3, 3)-ary differential rings as a generalization of differential rings. Then we study ideals, prime ideals, radical and nil ideals of them. Finally, we give a construction of hyperstructures determined by (3, 3)-ary differential rings.     

Reinvestigation of photoinduced intramolecular charge transfer reaction in p-Dimethylaminobenzaldehyde by spectroscopic method and Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculation

The excited state charge transfer (CT) properties of p-Dimethylaminobenzaldehyde (DMABA) have been reinvestigated spectroscopically in combination with quantum chemical calculations. The molecule having weak acceptor group (–CHO) shows weak charge transfer emission, which follows linear dependency on solvent polarity parameters and E_T(30) values. However, previously reported CT emission of DMABA in ACN and in DMF solvents by Grabowski et al. (Chem. Rev. 103 (2003) 3899) and Kawski et al. (Chem. Phys. Lett. 448 (2007) 208) are ambiguous and are different from the Grabowski's previous studies (Pure Appl. Chem. 55 (1983) 245) and the present results. Theoretical potential energy surfaces along both the donor and acceptor twisting motion using Density Functional Theory (DFT) with B3LYP functional and 6-311++G^?? basis set following Twisted Intramolecular Charge Transfer model support our experimental results. Time Dependent Density Functional Theory Polarization Continuum Model (TDDFT-PCM) has been used to explore the solvent effect on the emission spectra of DMABA.     

Intuitionistic Fuzzy Soft K-Algebras

Intuitionistic fuzzy sets and soft sets are two different soft computing models for representing vagueness and uncertainty. We apply these soft computing models in combination to study vagueness and uncertainty in K-algebras. We first introduce the notion of ${(\in, \in\vee q)}$ -intuitionistic fuzzy K-algebras and discuss some of their properties. Then we introduce intuitionistic fuzzy soft K-algebras and investigate some of their properties. Finally, we introduce ${(\in, \in \vee q)}$ -intuitionistic fuzzy soft K-algebras and present some of their related properties.     

Charge localization in a layer induced by electron-phonon interaction: application to transient polaron formation

We describe electron transfer and localization in a finite two-dimensional transporting layer (15 × 15) using a tight binding Hamiltonian where each site is coupled to phonons. For a narrow electronic band, a polaron is formed with a population that peaks in the middle of the layer and exhibits a concomitant energy lowering. A “local defect” can be simulated by lowering or raising the corresponding site energy. As an example, if we put the defect in one corner, the consequence is that the electron population builds up a polaron which is repelled from this region. The model has been applied to describe the experimentally observed real time polaron formation process in organic layers and in particular in the surface bands of ice-covered metal. We simulate the polaron formation, population distribution and energy relaxation in time. We also investigate the effect of local fluctuations on polaron formation. The formalism can be generalized to excitonic trapping, and has many potential applications.     

Synthesis and Dehydration of Oxadithia and Trithiadioxime Crown Compounds

The reaction of 2,2‐oxydiethanethiol and 2‐[2‐mercaptoethyl) thio] ethanethiol with dichloroglyoxime (DCGO) in absolute EtOH led to crown compounds, oxadithia (5Z,6Z)‐1,4,7‐oxadithiadiononane‐5,6‐dionedioxime (1) and trithia (2Z,3Z)‐1,4,7‐trithionane‐2,3‐dionedioxime (2), respectively. The compounds 5,6,8,9‐tetrahydro [1,4,7]oxadithionine[5,6‐c][1,2,5]oxadiazole (3) and 5,6,8,9‐tetrahydro[1,4,7]trithionino[2,3‐c][1,2,5]oxadiazole (4) were prepared by dehydration of 1 and 2 in aqueous solution of potassium hydroxide at 170–180°C, respectively.     

New Heteronuclear Bridged Borylene Complexes That Were Derived from [{Cp*CoCl}2] and Mono‐Metal?Carbonyl Fragments

The synthesis, structural characterization, and reactivity of new bridged borylene complexes are reported. The reaction of [{Cp*CoCl}₂] with LiBH₄ ? THF at ?70 °C, followed by treatment with [M(CO)₃(MeCN)₃] (M=W, Mo, and Cr) under mild conditions, yielded heteronuclear triply bridged borylene complexes, [(μ₃‐BH)(Cp*Co)₂(μ‐CO)M(CO)₅] ( 1 – 3 ; 1 : M=W, 2 : M=Mo, 3 : M=Cr). During the syntheses of complexes 1 – 3 , capped‐octahedral cluster [(Cp*Co)₂(μ‐H)(BH)₄{Co(CO)₂}] ( 4 ) was also isolated in good yield. Complexes 1 – 3 are isoelectronic and isostructural to [(μ₃‐BH)(Cp*RuCO)₂(μ‐CO){Fe(CO)₃}] ( 5 ) and [(μ₃‐BH)(Cp*RuCO)₂(μ‐H)(μ‐CO){Mn(CO)₃}] ( 6 ), with a trigonal‐pyramidal geometry in which the μ₃‐BH ligand occupies the apical vertex. To test the reactivity of these borylene complexes towards bis‐phosphine ligands, the room‐temperature photolysis of complexes 1 – 3 , 5 , 6 , and [{(μ₃‐BH)(Cp*Ru)Fe(CO)₃}₂(μ‐CO)] ( 7 ) was carried out. Most of these complexes led to decomposition, although photolysis of complex 7 with [Ph₂P(CH₂)_nPPh₂] (n=1–3) yielded complexes 9 – 11 , [3,4‐(Ph₂P(CH₂)_nPPh₂)‐closo‐1,2,3,4‐Ru₂Fe₂(BH)₂] ( 9 : n=1, 10 : n=2, 11 : n=3). Quantum‐chemical calculations by using DFT methods were carried out on compounds 1 – 3 and 9 – 11 and showed reasonable agreement with the experimentally obtained structural parameters, that is, large HOMO–LUMO gaps, in accordance with the high stabilities of these complexes, and NMR chemical shifts that accurately reflected the experimentally observed resonances. All of the new compounds were characterized in solution by using mass spectrometry, IR spectroscopy, and ¹H, ¹³C, and ¹¹B NMR spectroscopy and their structural types were unequivocally established by crystallographic analysis of complexes 1 , 2 , 4 , 9 , and 10 .     

Syntheses and Characterization of New Vinyl‐Borylene Complexes by the Hydroboration of Alkynes with [(μ3‐BH)(Cp*RuCO)2(μ‐CO)Fe(CO)3]

Room temperature photolysis of a triply‐bridged borylene complex, [(μ₃‐BH)(Cp*RuCO)₂(μ‐CO)Fe(CO)₃] ( 1 a ; Cp*=C₅Me₅), in the presence of a series of alkynes, 1,2‐diphenylethyne, 1‐phenyl‐1‐propyne, and 2‐butyne led to the isolation of unprecedented vinyl‐borylene complexes (Z)‐[(Cp*RuCO)₂(μ‐CO)B(CR)(CHR′)] ( 2 : R, R′=Ph; 3 : R=Me, R′=Ph; 4 : R, R′=Me). This reaction permits a hydroboration of alkyne through an anti ‐ Markovnikov addition. In stark contrast, in the presence of phenylacetylene, a metallacarborane, closo‐[1,2‐(Cp*Ru)₂(μ‐CO)₂{Fe₂(CO)₅}‐4‐Ph‐4,5‐C₂BH₂] ( 5 a) , is formed. A plausible mechanism has been proposed for the formation of vinyl‐borylene complexes, which is supported by density functional theory (DFT) methods. Furthermore, the calculated ¹¹B NMR chemical shifts accurately reflect the experimentally measured shifts. All the new compounds have been characterized in solution by mass spectrometry and IR, ¹H, ¹¹B, and ¹³C NMR spectroscopies and the structural types were unequivocally established by crystallographic analysis of 2 , 5 a , and 5 b .
