Direct analysis of thin-layer chromatographic spots of narcotics by means of diffuse reflectance Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy

The technique of diffuse reflectance Fourier transform infrared spectrometry (DRIFT) as an in situ detection method was used for the qualitative and quantitative analysis of drugs (heroin, cocaine and codeine) separated by thin layer chromatography.It was found that at a given interferometer throughput and detector sensitivity the quality of the spectrum depends strongly in the type of the chromatographic thin layer used. A detection limit of approx. 2 g was attained on a microcrystalline cellulose thin layer with a dynamically aligned Bio-Rad Digilab FTS 60A/896 type interferometer and room temperature DTGS detector. A reliable qualitative analysis can be made with as little as 10 to 15 g drug per spot.     

Characterization of the organization in shear layers via the Proper Orthogonal Decomposition

Experiments are performed in an incompressible plane turbulent mixing layer, using various hot wire rake configurations. From these experiments, the Proper Orthogonal Decomposition is applied for kernels where the space-time correlation tensor is evaluated over different spatial meshes and velocity components configurations. The resulting decompositions are then discussed in terms of characterization of the organization of the flow for various scalar or vectorial approaches of the POD. An incrtial range law is evidenced. The instantaneous contribution of the first modes of the POD to the organization of the flow is analyzed. A dynamical behavior for the organization of the flow is observed from the correlation between the first two modes contribution.

黑腔靶中超热电子特性研究

近几年来,在“神光”装置上进行了1.053μm激光与平面靶及一系列柱形黑腔靶相互作用实验。用一台多道滤波—荧光X光能谱仪(FFS)测得各种靶发射的超热X射线谱,由谱推导超热电子温度T_h和超热电子总能量E_h当照射靶单束激光能量E_(tar)为400～670J、脉宽τ=650～1150ps时,发现黑腔内明显存在两群服从Maxwell分布高能电子(T_h=35～45keV;T_(hh)=150～350kev),而且E_(he)占E_(tar)的份额为10％～12％。实验还表明:腔内的E_(he)与非线性过程特征量(SRS)有较好的线性关系,因此推断出腔内超热电子产生的主要机制是受激Raman散射。在相同照射条件下,黑腔靶产生的超热电子比平面靶严重。     

Determination of the pyrites content of bauxites by thermal methods

A derivatographic method has been developed for the identification and determination of the pyrites content of bauxites and clay minerals. If the sample contains at least 0.2% of pyrite, then at 400–450° a weight increase is indicated on the DTG curve, while a heat liberation is shown on the DTA curve. The amplitude of or the area under, these maxima is proportional to the pyrites content of the sample, although the correlation is not linear. In addition, the effect of experimental conditions on the thermal decomposition of pyrites has been studied.

Synthesis of vinca alkaloids and related compounds. 100. Stereoselective oxidation reactions of compounds with the aspidospermane and quebrachamine ring system. First synthesis of some alkaloids containing the epoxy ring

The first syntheses of the alkaloids (-)-mehranine (3), (+)-voaphylline/conoflorine (4), (+)-N(a)-methylvoaphylline/hecubine (5), and (-)-lochnericine (2) were achieved by stereoselective epoxidation starting from (-)-tabersonine (1), through intermediates with the aspidospermane and quebrachamine skeleton.     

Biamperometric neutralisation titrations in non-aqueous solvents applying tin electrode pair for the end-point detection

Summary Tertiary amines and salts of organic acids in acetic anhydride with 5% of acetic acid were titrated applying a biamperometric indicating system consisting of a polarised or unpolarised pair of tin electrodes by means of 0.1 N perchloric acid in glacial acetic acid. Amounts of 15.4–29.8 mg were analysed with average deviations of <0.6%, the results obtained being in a good agreement with those of potentiometry. The biamperometric end-point detection using an indicating system of polarised pair of tin electrodes can be applied for coulometric determinations of these bases with satisfying accuracy. By means of anodic generation of hydrogen ions in the presence of hydroquinone amounts of 0.5–1.0 mg were titrated with average deviations of < 1.3%. The results obtained were compared with those obtained of catalytic thermometric and photometric titrations.

Biamperometrische Neutralisationstitrationen in nichtwärigen Lösungsmitteln unter Anwendung eines Zinn-Elektrodenpaares als Indicatorsystem

Zusammenfassung Tertiäre Amine und Salze organischer Säuren werden in Acetanhydrid mit 5% Essigsäure durch Titration mit einer 0,1 N Lösung von Perchlorsäure in Essigsäure bestimmt. Das verwendete biamperometrische Indicatorsystem besteht aus einem Paar polarisierter oder nichtpolarisierter Zinnelektroden. Mengen von 15,4–29,8 mg wurden mit einer mittleren Abweichung von <0,6% analysiert. Die Ergebnisse stimmen gut mit denen von potentiometrischen Titrationen überein. Die biamperometrische Endpunkttechnik mit polarisierten Zinnelektroden kann für coulometrische Bestimmungen dieser Basen mit zufriedenstellender Genauigkeit benutzt werden. Durch anodische Erzeugung von Wasserstoffionen in Gegenwart von Hydrochinon wurden Mengen von 0,5–1,0 mg mit einer mittleren Abweichung von < 1,3% titriert. Die Ergebnisse wurden mit denen von katalytisch-thermometrischen und photometrischen Titrationen verglichen.
