Spectrophotometric flow injection determination of total phosphorus in beer using on-line UV/thermal induced digestion

A flow injection system for the automatic determination of total phosphorus in beer is described. The developed manifold uses a two-stage photooxidation/thermal digestion procedure together with oxidizing and hydrolyzing reagents to convert all forms of phosphorus compounds to orthophosphate. Polyphosphates are hydrolyzed by acid and heat, and organo-phosphates are digested by UV-catalyzed peroxodisulfate oxidation. The orthophosphate formed is then spectrophotometrically determined by the phosphomolybdenum blue reaction, using stannous chloride as reducing agent. The results obtained for a set of 19 beer samples (with concentrations from 120 to 735 mg P/L) were in good agreement with the reference method, the maximum relative deviation found being 4.7%. Relative standard deviations for ten consecutive determinations were lower than 1.5%, and a detection limit of 1 mg P/L was achieved.     

Amidomethylation of amodiaquine: antimalarial N-Mannich base derivatives

Novel N-Mannich base-type derivatives of the antimalarial drug amodiaquine were synthesised by reaction with tertiary N-chloromethylamides. With the exception of the derivative of ethyl hippurate, all the so-formed (1-amidomethyl-1H-quinolin-4-ylidene)arylamines displayed high chemical and enzymatic stability. These compounds displayed antimalarial activity against the multi-drug resistant Plasmodium falciparum strain Dd2 (IC₅₀ values 15-31 nM) and demonstrated no significant loss in activity compared to amodiaquine (IC₅₀ 30 nM).     

Natural radionuclide-free phosphoric acid production

High-uranium phosphate rock from Itataia, Brazil, was milled for wet-process phosphoric acid production using the dihydrate method. Uranium contained in the phosphoric acid was recovered by solvent extraction. The distribution of long-lived natural radionuclides of the ²³⁸U and ²³²Th decay series involved in these operations was evaluated. ²²⁶Ra, ²²⁸Ra and ²¹⁰Pb were found to predominate in the phosphogypsum, while ²²⁸Th, ²³⁰Th and ²³²Th in the uranium-free phosphoric acid. Thorium is removed from the phosphoric acid by solvent extraction to produce a NORM-free phosphoric acid.

Characterization of Lippia sidoides oil extract-b-cyclodextrin complexes using combined thermoanalytical techniques

Thermoanalytical techniques, being rapid and un-expensive have been used for the investigation of the cyclodextrin inclusion complexes for three decades. The conventional thermoanalytical techniques (TG and DTA/DSC) follow the thermal properties of the uncomplexed compounds. Consequently, the inclusion complex formation as well as the liberation of the entrapped guest cannot be followed. Monitoring the products of the thermal fragmentation of parent cyclodextrin and the included molecule(s), applying TG-MS combined technique provides evidence concerning the inclusion complex formation, and besides, gives selective signal to follow the decomposition of the cyclodextrin inclusion complexes. b-cyclodextrin inclusion complexes of Thymol and Lippia sidoides Cham essential oil extract have been prepared and investigated using conventional and combined (TG-MS) thermoanalytical techniques. The evolved gas analysis proved the inclusion complex formation between the host and guests. By the evaluation of the experimental results the elaboration of the entrapped guests from the cyclodextrin cavity could be followed. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Gas-phase generation of highly reactive hexatriyne-bridged [6n]paracyclophynes

[6n]Paracyclophenediynes 2a-d (n = 3-6) having [4.3.2]propellatriene units were prepared as precursors of the corresponding [6n]paracyclophynes. Laser irradiation of 2a-d produced the negative ions of [6n]paracyclophynes 1a-d (n = 3-6) by extrusion of the indan fragments, which were detected by time-of-flight mass spectrometry.
