The electrochemical activity of a suspension of human erythrocytes was found at potentials above +0.4 V. The limiting current of electrooxidation was found to linearly depend on the cell concentration in the suspension. The electrochemical activity of an erythrocyte suspension is accompanied by reversible changes in the cell morphology only in non-buffered media. 相似文献
A novel approach to pyrrole ring closure in 2-trifluoroacetyl- and 2-ethoxycarbonyl-1,8-bis(dimethylamino)naphthalenes via treatment with 2-lithium-1,8-bis(dimethylamino)naphthalene producing the corresponding benzo[g]indole derivatives, was examined with different alkyl- and aryllithium compounds as well as with LDA. It was found that the highest yields of benzo[g]indoles (up to 70%) are obtained with aryllithium reagents when they contain NMe2 group in ortho-position to the carbanionic centre. In all other cases the formation of acyclic alcohol arising from ordinary intermolecular addition of the carbanion to the CO group strongly prevails. The dramatic facilitation of deprotonation of the N-Me group in substrate followed by pyrrolic cyclization in the case of 2-lithium-N,N-dimethylanilines was explained through a specific structure of the reaction transition state. 相似文献
Influence of the chitosan concentration in the low-concentrated acidic hydrogels formed by (bio)polyelectrolyte chitosan–gelatin complexes (at a constant gelatin concentration of 1%) was studied by shearing in steady flow and linear oscillations. These complexes, including native gelatin, demonstrate clearly expressed viscoelastic properties. Viscoelastic properties correlated well with the non-Newtonian behavior of hydrogels (according to the Cox–Merz rule). Increasing the chitosan concentration (from 0.1% to 0.6%) results in exponential growth of the apparent viscosity, yield stress, and storage modulus. However, a further increase in chitosan concentration to 0.8% leads to a reduction in these rheological parameters due to the electrostatic repulsion of similarly charged polyelectrolyte complexes under the high concentration of these complexes. The macro-rheological properties of chitosan–gelatin gels are mainly determined by the colloidal structure of sol-precursors in solutions. The yield stress dependence on the radius of the dispersed particles is of square type. Electron photomicrographs showed that the introduction of even small quantities of chitosan leads to radical changes in the supramolecular structure of the gelatin gel. 相似文献
In presented research, multiple W/O/W emulsions were developed by using experimental design method. A 24-1 fractional factorial design was performed by varying the following input parameters: primary polymeric emulsifier (PEG 30-dipolyhydroxystearate) concentration (0.8% and 2.4%), secondary polymeric emulsifier (Poloxamer 407) concentration (0.8% and 1.2%), electrolyte magnesium sulfate heptahydrate (0.08% and 0.4%) and electrolyte sodium chloride (0.08% and 0.4%). Multiple emulsions were prepared by a two-step emulsification process. Obtained emulsions were characterized with rheological measurements, conductivity and centrifugation tests. Factorial analysis revealed that the concentration of the primary emulsifier was the predominant factor influencing the phase separation, conductivity and maximal apparent viscosity. Additionally, electrolyte magnesium sulfate heptahydrate was more efficient in stabilizing these systems, compared to sodium chloride. The applied fractional factorial design method enabled determination of the optimal concentrations of the primary and secondary emulsifier, as well as the concentration of electrolytes, in order to obtain W/O/W emulsions with desired maximal apparent viscosities, low values of conductivity and without phase separation after centrifugation. 相似文献
Four hexanuclear coordination clusters containing cores of edge-sharing coordination octahedra exemplify how mixed-spin derivatives of a homonuclear parent structure, [(N–O)4], can be realized by a ligand ‘shrink-wrapping’ approach, resulting in [(N–O)4]- and [(N-O)4]-type clusters (L = isobutyrate, N–O = methyldiethanolamine, n-butyldiethanolamine, or triethanolamine). The resulting core structures are either virtually isostructural to the parent structure or differ in the placement of the peripheral metal ions, depending on the mix of structure-directing carboxylate and alkoxyamine ligands with large, flexible alkyl chains. Whereas the and {} complexes show dominant antiferromagnetic exchange, ferrimagnetic coupling features are exhibited by two {} clusters. 相似文献
The anodic formation of Ag(I) oxide nanofilms on polycrystalline silver and Ag–Au alloys as well as on low-index single crystals of silver in 0.1?М KOH was examined. By the methods of photocurrent iph and photopotential Eph measurements, the n-type conductivity of Ag2O film was established. Since the film (6–120 nm) is thinner than the space charge region, the dependence of photocurrent and photopotential appears on the film thickness L: iph ~L and Eph ~L2. The transition from polycrystalline silver to single crystals as well as the addition of a small amount of gold (XAu?≤?4 at.%) into the silver lattice decreases the degree of deviation from the stoichiometric composition Ag2O. The parameters of Ag2O film (optical absorption coefficient α, donor defects concentration ND, space charge region W, and Debye’s length of screening LD) depend on the index of a crystal face of silver, volume concentration of gold XAu in the alloy, and film-formation potential E. At Е?=?0.52 V, the sequences of variation of these parameters correlate with the reticular density sequence. The growth of the potential disturbs these sequences. The band gap in Ag2O formed on Agpoly, Aghkl, and Ag–Au is 2.32, 2.23, and 2.19 eV. Flat band potential in Ag(I) oxide, formed on Agpoly in 0.5 M KOH is 0.37 V. The appearance of the clear dependence between the state of the oxide/metal interface and the structure-sensitive parameters of semiconductor Ag(I) oxide phase allows considering the anodic formation of Ag2O on Ag as a result of the primary direct electrochemical reaction, not of the precipitation from the near-electrode layer. 相似文献
It is demonstrated that dissolution of aminothiacalix[4]arene in chloroform results in transformation of 1,3-alternate conformation, adopted in single-crystal and bulk polycrystalline solids, to the pinched-cone form. This conformer is stabilised by the intramolecular hydrogen bonds of two distal amino-groups acting as H-donors with another two amino moieties that appear as H-acceptors. The H-bonds cause quite small (ca. 10–20 cm?1) red shift of the IR bands of the NH2 stretching vibrations, which suggests rather weak NH?N hydrogen bonding. This latter is sufficient to stabilize the pinched-cone conformation in the chloroform solution, but the energy gap between the pinched-cone and other conformations is small, and solid-state intermolecular forces easily overcome it, leading to realisation of the 1,3-alternate conformer. The comparison of the DFT computed and experimental vibrational and NMR spectra demonstrates good quality of present quantum-chemical computations, allows complete interpretation of the spectra and reveals simple IR and NMR spectroscopic markers of the conformers of aminothiacalix[4]arenes. 相似文献
The single crystal X-ray structures and the spectroscopic properties of complexes of monensic acid (C36H62O11·H2O) with toxic metal ions of Cd(II) and Hg(II) are discussed. The cadmium(II) complex (1) is of composition [Cd(C36H61O11)2(H2O)2] and crystallizes in the monoclinic system (space group P2(1), Z = 2) with a = 12.4090(8), b = 24.7688(16), c = 14.4358(11) Å, β = 91.979(7)°. Two ligand monoanions are bound in a bidentate coordination mode to Cd(II) via the carboxylate and the primary hydroxyl oxygens occupying the equatorial plane of the complex. The axial positions of the inner coordination sphere of Cd(II) are filled by two water molecules additionally engaged in intramolecular hydrogen bonds. The Hg(II) complex (2), [Hg(C36H60O11)(H2O)], crystallizes in the orthorhombic system (space group P2(1)2(1)2(1), Z = 4) with a = 12.7316(2), b = 16.4379(3), c = 18.7184(4) Å. The monensic acid reacts with Hg(II) in a tetradentate coordination manner via both oxygen atoms of the carboxylate function and oxygens of two hydroxyl groups. The twofold negative charge of the ligand is achieved by deprotonation of carboxylic and secondary hydroxyl groups located at the opposite ends of the molecule. Hg(II) is surrounded by five oxygen atoms in a distorted square pyramidal molecular geometry.
We address the properties of multivortex soliton complexes supported by multiring gain landscapes in focusing Kerr nonlinear media with strong two-photon absorption. Stable complexes incorporating two, three, or four vortices featuring opposite or identical topological charges are shown to exist. In the simplest geometries with two amplifying rings vortex twins with equal topological charges exhibit asymmetric intensity distributions, while vortex anti-twins may be symmetric or asymmetric, depending on the gain level and separation between rings. 相似文献

In this paper we presents results on synthesis of Al and/or Fe-doped ATLS, the design of compatible anode materials, thermal expansion properties and co-sintering of half-cells from expansion matched materials using the advanced pulsed electric current sintering (PECS) technique. The issues related to the co-sintering of half cells have been addressed successfully by the combined use of nano powders and PECS. 相似文献
