An Efficient Method for the Synthesis of Acyl-diazenes Using NaNO_2/NaHSO_4·H_2O

Azo compounds are widely utilized as analytic reagents and dyes1, they can also be used in material of non-linear optics, material of optics information storing in laser disks, and dyes with oil solubility in photochromy in modern technology2. Recently, many noteworthy studies have shown that some azo compounds possess excellent optical memory and photoelectric properties3,4. For example, polymer scaffolds bearing azobenzene-potential are useful for optical information storage, azo-dye doped…     

Organic functionalization of the sidewalls of carbon nanotubes by diels-alder reactions: a theoretical prediction

[structure: see text] The viability of the Diels-Alder (DA) cycloaddition of conjugated dienes onto the sidewalls of single-wall carbon nanotubes is assessed by means of a two-layered ONIOM(B3LYP/6-31G:AM1) approach. Whereas the DA reaction of 1,3-butadiene on the sidewall of an armchair (5,5) nanotube is found to be unfavorable, the cycloaddition of quinodimethane is predicted to be viable due to the aromaticity stabilization at the corresponding transition states and products.     

Terpsichorean movements of pentaammineruthenium on pyrimidine and isocytosine ligands

Pentaammineruthenium moves on ambidentate nitrogen heterocycles by both rotation and linkage isomerization, which may affect the biological activity of potential ruthenium metallopharmaceuticals. The rapid rotation rates of [(NH3)5RuIII] coordinated to the exocyclic nitrogens of isocytosine (ICyt) and 6-methylisocytosine (6MeICyt) have been determined by 1H NMR. Since these rotamers can be stabilized by hydrogen bonding between the coordinated ammines and the N1 and N3 endocyclic nitrogens, rotamerization is under pH control. Spectrophotometrically (UV-vis) measured pKa values for the two endocyclic sites for the ICyt complex are 2.78 and 9.98, and for 6MeICyt are 3.06 and 10.21, which are probably weighted averages for ionization from N3 and N1, respectively. Activation parameters for the rotamerizations were determined by variable-temperature NMR at pKa1 < pH < pKa2 for the complexes with (ICyt-kappa N2)-, (6MeICyt kappa N2)-, and 2AmPym kappa N2. For [(6MeICyt kappa N2)(-)-(NH3)5RuIII]2+, delta H* = 1.6 kcal/mol, delta S* = -37 cal/mol K, and Ea = 2.2 kcal/mol. Due to strong RuIII-N pi-bonding, the activation enthalpies are approximately 10 kcal lower than the expected values for the free ligands. Rotameric structure is correlated with pKa values, pH-dependent reduction potentials, and 1H NMR parameters. Linkage isomers of [(2AmPym)(NH3)5Ru]n+ are reported in which RuII is coordinated to the endocyclic nitrogen (N1) and RuIII to the exocyclic nitrogen (N2). The rate constant for the kappa N2-->kappa N1 isomerization as part of an ECE mechanism is 3.9 s-1 at pH 3. The pH dependence of the acid-catalyzed hydrolysis of [(2AmPym kappa N1)(NH3)5Ru]2+ is determined.     

激光通道传输热特性对远场光束质量的影响

 通过仿真计算分析了激光在光束控制系统通道内传输所产生的热效应及其对远场光束质量的影响。激光传播由近轴波方程描述，用快速傅里叶变换技术求解；激光热效应引起的流场密度变化采用完全Navier-Stokes方程计算。计算给出了不同波长、不同吸收系数条件下的远场光斑情况。计算结果表明，在典型的工作条件和状态下，较高能量激光在光束控制系统通道内产生的热效应影响不容忽视，它会明显降低远场目标处的能量集中度，增大光斑的发散。

原子荧光光谱法测定砷过程中还原反应条件的优化

自然界中砷和砷的化合物一般可通过水、大气和食物等途径进入人体,危害人体健康,原子荧光光谱法测定砷含量被广泛应用。为准确测定样品中砷的含量,以原子荧光光谱法(AFS)测定土壤中总砷含量为例,重点研究高价态砷(Ⅴ)还原为低价态砷(Ⅲ)的实验条件,采用正交实验进行条件优化,建立适合的实验方法。通过设计L9(34)正交实验,高价态砷的还原反应与四个因素有关,即与反应温度、反应时间、盐酸加入量和硫脲的用量呈一定的正相关,结果表明,四个因素中硫脲用量的影响最为显著,其次是盐酸加入量、反应时间和反应温度。通过对四个因素的多水平检验,优化后的实验条件为：硫脲用量2.0 mL、盐酸加入量10%、反应时间20 min、温度20～35 ℃(即普通室温)。采用土壤标准物质验证优化后条件的可行性,得出砷的测定值在标准值范围内,RSD在2.2%～4.2%,精密度和准确性均满足质控要求。优化后的实验条件使得操作简便易行,提高了工作效率。
