Preasphaltene fractions of exinite and vitrinite macerals, liquefied in tetralin, were examined by chemical ionization mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry for phenolic constituents. Recognition was based on dehydration of the protonated molecule with confirmation from daughter spectra, which in some cases could be compared with the spectra of authentic compounds. Rapid screening for homologous compounds was achieved by employing parent scans. Twelve homologous series of hydroxyaromatic compounds were identified, including phenols, naphthols, indenols, indanols, and some dihydroxy compounds. Many of the alkylated species have not been previously reported in coal liquids. While tanden mass spectrometry is an effective means of encountering new compounds, it does not provide the isomer selectivity of chromatographic methods to which it is complementary. 相似文献
Methyl(4-methoxyphenyl)(2,2′-bipyridine)palladium(II) (1) reacts with bis(4-chlorophenyl) diselenide in dichloromethane to form an equilibrium with the Pd(IV) complex Pd(SeC6H4Cl)2Me(C6H4OMe)(bpy) (2) for which the forward reaction exhibits ΔH=−130±12 kJ mol−1 and ΔS=−472±49 J K−1 mol−1, and with K=754±145 at −25 °C. The Pd(IV) complex is isolable at −40 °C, and when the equilibrium mixture is kept at −25 °C, a temperature at which the Pd(II) complex is stable, selective reductive elimination of Me-SeC6H4Cl occurs very slowly from the Pd(IV) complex to form Pd(SeC6H4Cl)(C6H4OMe)(bpy) (3). In contrast, (ClC6H4Se)2 reacts with PdMe2(dmpe) (4) [dmpe=1,2-bis(dimethylphosphino)ethane] to form Pd(SeC6H4Cl)Me(dmpe) (5) and Me-SeC6H4Cl. A second equivalent of (ClC6H4Se)2 reacts with 5 to cleave the second Pd-Me bond to give Pd(SeC6H4Cl)2(dmpe) (6) and Me-SeC6H4Cl. Similarly, PdMeTol(dmpe) (7) (Tol=4-tolyl) forms predominantly Pd(SeC6H4Cl)Tol(dmpe) (8) together with some Pd(SeC6H4Cl)Me(dmpe) (5), and 8 reacts with (ClC6H4Se)2 to form Pd(SeC6H4Cl)2(dmpe) (6) and Tol-SeC6H4Cl. Bis(4-chlorophenyl) diselenide reacts with PtTol2(bpy) (9) (Tol=4-tolyl) to form Pt(SeC6H4Cl)2Tol2(bpy) (10) which, together with 2, has a trans-configuration for the selenolate ligands. X-ray structural studies of octahedral 10 as the solvate 10 · 3CHCl3 and square planar 5 are reported. 相似文献
[reaction: see text] Here we describe a miniature protein (1) that presents the cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) recognition epitope found within the heat-stable Protein Kinase Inhibitor protein (PKI) and a miniature protein conjugate (1-K252a) in which 1 is joined covalently to the high-affinity but nonselective kinase inhibitor K252a. Miniature protein 1 recognizes PKA with an affinity that rivals that of PKI and, in the context of 1-K252a, leads to a dramatic increase in kinase specificity. 相似文献
Identification and quantification of microplastics (MP) in environmental samples is crucial for understanding the risk and distribution of MP in the environment. Currently, quantification of MP particles in environmental samples and the comparability of different matrices is a major research topic. Research also focusses on sample preparation, since environmental samples must be free of inorganic and organic matrix components for the MP analysis. Therefore, we would like to propose a new method that allows the comparison of the results of MP analysis from different environmental matrices and gives a MP concentration in mass of MP particles per gram of environmental sample. This is possible by developing and validating an optimized and consistent sample preparation scheme for quantitative analysis of MP particles in environmental model samples in conjunction with quantitative 1H-NMR spectroscopy (qNMR). We evaluated for the first time the effects of different environmental matrices on identification and quantification of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) fibers using the qNMR method. Furthermore, high recovery rates were obtained from spiked environmental model samples (without matrix ~ 90%, sediment ~ 97%, freshwater ~ 94%, aquatic biofilm ~ 95%, and invertebrate matrix ~ 72%), demonstrating the high analytical potential of the method.
Inorganic Cr(III) and Cr(VI) have contrasting biological, geochemical and toxicology effects. Cr(III) is considered as an
essential species for the proper functioning of living organisms but Cr(VI) is toxic for the biological systems. An off-line
speciation method using Chelex-100 has been practiced for speciation to Cr(III) and Cr(VI) from surface waters of rivers.
The underlying principal of this separation method is based on the ability of cationic Cr(III) to be retained by the resin
Chelex-100 while the anionic Cr(VI) remained in the sample matrices. The efficiency of this technique was improved by studying
the effect of resin pH. Quantitative determination using inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) and instrumental
neutron activation analysis (INAA) was carried out after the separation to determine the total Cr and Cr(VI) in the liquid
matrices. The precision and the accuracy of the quantitative analysis were evaluated by using standard reference material
NRCC CASS-2 Intercomparison of INAA and ICP-MS results were determined. The quantity of inorganic Cr(III) and Cr(VI) in the
surface water of rivers in the vicinity of industrial areas was investigated together with the determination of the physical
properties of the water rivers during sampling. 相似文献
Freezing temperatures of dilute aqueous solutions of equimolar mixtures of 1,3,5-trioxane with myo-inositol, d-mannitol, cyclohexanol, formamide, and acetamide, and 1,4-dioxane with myo-inositol, d-mannitol, formamide, and acetamide have been measured. These data yield pairwise Gibbs energies of interactions between the molecules in an aqueous solution. Using the group additivity principle, the results also yield the pairwise functional group Gibbs energies of interaction for the ether group with the hydroxyl and amide group. These results have been combined with all available data from the literature to yield the Gibbs energy and enthalpy of interaction of amides, ethers, alcohols, and saccharides in aqueous solution.To whom correspondence should be addressed. 相似文献
A flow-injection method is reported for the determination of chlorite ion and chlorite and chlorate ions in mixtures at the submilligram per liter level in drinking water. The chlorite ion concentration is selectively determined by using its reaction with iodide ion at pH 2, which liberates iodine. Both species react with iodide ion in6 M HCl to produce iodine, the concentration of which is measured spectrophotmetricaly at 370 nm. The individual species are determined using multiplel regression. The method exhibits a linear range from 2 to 150 μM (0.1–10.1 mg l-1) for chlorite ion and from 2 to μM (0.1–8.3 mg l-1 for chlorate ion, with relative standard deviations of 0.4 and 1.2%, respectively. 相似文献
Several studies have demonstrated the use of biomimetic approaches in the synthesis of a variety of inorganic materials. Poly-L-lysine (PLL) promotes the precipitation of silica from a silicic acid solution within minutes. The molecular weight of PLL was found to affect the morphology of the resulting silica precipitate. Larger-molecular weight PLL produced hexagonal silica platelets, whereas spherical silica particles were obtained using low-molecular weight PLL. Here we report on the polypeptide secondary-structure transition that occurs during the silicification reaction. The formation of the hexagonal silica platelets is attributed to the PLL helical chains that are formed in the presence of monosilicic acid and phosphate ions. Hexagonal PLL crystals can also serve as templates in directing the growth of the silica in a manner that generates a largely mesoporous silica phase that is oriented with respect to the protein crystal template. 相似文献
The synthesis of TAS+ C3N3F4- (1) (TAS+ = (Me2N)3S+) and the reactions of 1 with Me3SiOSiMe3 and Me3SiCF3 to give TAS+ C3N3F2O- (2) and TAS+[(NCF)(NCCF3)(NC(CF3)(2)]- (4) are reported. An isomer of 4, TAS+[(NCCF3)2(NCFCF3)]-, compound 6, was obtained by fluoride ion addition to (CF3CN)3. From the reactions with Me3SiNMe2 neutral fluoroamino triazines C3N3Fn(NMe2)(n-1) (n = 1, 2) were isolated. Possible reaction pathways are discussed, the X-ray structures of 1, 2, 4 and 6 were determined. 相似文献
