Spectroscopic evidence for triplet excitation energy transfer among carotenoids in the LH2 complex from photosynthetic bacterium <Emphasis Type="Italic">Rhodopseudomonas palustris</Emphasis>

The LH2 complex from Rhodopsudomonas (Rps.) palustris is unique in the heterogeneous carotenoid compositions. The dynamics of triplet excited state Carotenoids (³Car* has been investigated by means of sub-microsecond time-resolved absorption spectroscopy both at physiological temperature (295 K) and at cryogenic temperature (77K). Broad and asymmetric T _n ←T ₁ transient absorption was observed at room temperature following the photo-excitation of Car at 532 nm, which suggests the contribution from various carotenoid compositions having different numbers of conjugated C=C double bonds (N_c=c). The triplet absorption bands of different carotenoids, which superimposed at room temperature, could be clearly distinguished upon decreasing the temperature down to 77 K. At room temperature the shorter-wavelength side of the main T_n04T₁ absorption band decayed rapidly to reach a spectral equilibration with a characteristic time constant of ∽1 μs, the same spectral dynamics, however, was not observed at 77 K. The aforementioned spectral dynamics can be explained in terms of the triplet-excitation transfer among heterogeneous carotenoid compositions. Global spectral analysis was applied to the time-resolved spectra at room temperature, which revealed two spectral components peaked at 545 and 565 nm, and assignable to the T_n04 T₁ absorption of Cars with Nc=c=11 and Nc=c=13, respectively. Surprisingly, the decay time constant of a shorter-conjugated Car, i.e. 0.72 ώs (aerobic) and 1.36 ώs (anaerobic), is smaller than that of a longer-conjugated Car, i.e. 2.12 us (aerobic) and 3.75 ώs (anaerobic), which is contradictory to the general rule of carotenoids and relative polyenes. The results are explained in terms of triplet-excitation transfer among different types of Cars. It is postulated that two Cars with different conjugation lengths coexist in an α, β-subunit in the LH2 complex.     

Synthesis,crystal structure and property of a novel azide-bridged one-dimensional chain copper(II) complex with a dinucleating macrocyclic polyamine

An azide-bridged polymeric cationic chain complex, [LCu₂(N₃)₂]n(ClO₄)_2n ·n(H₂O)**, where L=the dinucleating macrocyclic ligand bis-p-xylylBISDIEN, has been prepared and characterized by x-ray crystallography, u.v.-vis and i.r. spectra, and by magnetic measurements. The structure consists of cationic azide-bridged [LCu₂(N₃)₂]²⁺ (unit) chains, non-coordinated perchlorate anions and crystallized water molecules. The azide anion is bound to two copper atoms in neighboring units with an end-to-end bridging mode. In each unit, the copper atoms have a different coordination geometry; Cu(1) is a four-coordinated, distorted square-planar geometry, whereas Cu(2) is a five-coordinated, distorted square-pyramid. The electronic spectra of the title complex differ in anhydrous and in aqueous MeCN solutions, indicating that dissociation and solvation occur in aqueous solutions. The characteristic i.r. absorptions of azides and perchlorates are described. Magnetic moments vary from 2.05 (B.M.) at 300K to2.01 (B.M.) at 80K, which suggests that very weak interactions exist between the metals.     

Reactions of sulfur(IV) with an octahedral manganese(IV) complex of 1,8-bis(2-hydroxy benzamido)-3,6-diaza octane: the role of phenolate–amide–amine coordination

The Mn^IV complex of tetra-deprotonated 1,8-bis(2-hydroxybenzamide)-3,6-diazaoctane (Mn^IVL) engrossed in phenolate-amido-amine coordination is reduced by HSO₃⁻ and SO₃²⁻ in the pH range 3.15–7.3 displaying biphasic kinetics, the Mn^IIIL⁻ being the reactive intermediate. The Mn^IIIL⁻ species has been characterized by u.v.–vis. spectra {λ _max, (ε, dm³ mol⁻¹ cm⁻¹): 285(15 570), 330 sh (7570), 469(6472), 520 sh (5665), pH=5.42}. SO₄²⁻ was the major oxidation product of S^IV; dithionate is also formed (18 ± 2% of [Mn^IV]_T) which suggests that dimerisation of SO₃^−• is competitive with its fast oxidation by Mn^IV/III. The rates and activation parameters for Mn^IVL + HSO₃⁻ (SO₃²⁻) → Mn^IIIL⁻; Mn^IIIL⁻ + HSO₃⁻ (SO₃²⁻) → Mn^IIL²⁻ are reported at 28.5–45.0 °C (I=0.3 mol dm⁻³, 10% (v/v) MeOH + H₂O). Reduction by SO₃²⁻ is ca. eight times faster than by HSO₃⁻ both for Mn^IVL and Mn^IIIL⁻. There was no evidence of HSO₃⁻/SO₃²⁻ coordination to the Mn centre indicating an outer sphere (ET) mechanism which is further supported by an isokinetic relationship. The self exchange rate constant (k₂₂) for the redox couple, Mn^IIIL⁻/Mn^IVL (1.5 × 10⁶ dm³ mol⁻¹ s⁻¹ at 25 °C) is reported.

动,静态硫化（NR＋SBR）／PE共混体系的结构与性能

用TEM研究了(NR SBR)/PE共混体系经动、静态硫化后的形态结构及其与力学性能的关系。未硫化和静态硫化体系的形态结构与其组成有关,均以含量大的组份为连续相;对动态硫化体系,当(NR=SBR)/PE<70/30时,均以PE为连续相,其性能主要依赖于构成连续相组份的性质。 动态硫化体系的T_g值低于静态体系,随PE组份含量的增加变化不大,而静态硫化体系的T_g值则随PE含量增加向高温方向迁移。用DSC测得动态硫化体系的结晶度比静态体系的大。前者的应力-应变性能也低于后者。
