Determination of panaxadiol and panaxatriol in ginseng and its preparations by capillary supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC).

Capillary supercritical fluid chromatographic (SFC) method has been developed for the determination of panaxadiol and panaxatriol in ginseng and its preparations. 0.1 g ginseng or an appropriate amount of its preparations was hydrolysed by 15% H2SO4 in an ethanol:water (1:1 v/v) solution for 4 h followed by 15% NaOH for 0.5 h. The mixture was extracted by cyclohexane. The cyclohexane extracts were purified by a partition column and concentrated by an adsorption column and then analysed by SFC. Methyltestosterone was used as the internal standard.

Morphology-dependent stimulated Raman scattering (MDSRS)

A novel non-linear Raman spectroscopic technique, which can be used to characterize the chemical composition of the interface region of volatile aerosol particles, is described. The technique is morphology-dependent stimulated Raman scattering (MDSRS). We discuss the phenomenology behind this new optical probe, and present experimental results which show that this technique can be used as quantitative spectroscopic tool. We outline the potential application of MDSRS to in situ gas—aerosol kinetics and dynamics studies.     

Calculation of χ)(3) in He including configuration interaction for XUV photons

We calculate the third-order susceptibility in He for photon energies from 19.5 eV to 24.5 eV in a configuration-interaction calculation, and discuss the role of autoionizing states as a means of enhancing harmonic generation.

本文提出了富烯碳原子簇的石墨层间闭合形成机理，由该机理推出的许多结果与实验事实符合很好。我们认为碳原子簇自由基的快速淬灭及其淬灭速度是富烯碳原子簇形成及其丰度的决定因素。由此得出富烯碳原子簇在给定实验条件下产生的必然性，并预言不同大小的富烯碳原子簇可以通过优化实验条件选择性地合成。     

Fluorous Synthesis of Biaryl-Substituted Proline Analogs by 1,3-Dipolar Cycloaddition and Suzuki Coupling Reactions

A solution-phase synthesis of bicyclic prolines containing four points of diversity has been developed by a two-step synthesis involving 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of perfluoroalkylsulfonyl-protected hydroxybenzaldehydes followed by Pd-catalyzed Suzuki coupling reaction of fluorous sulfonates with boronic acids. Both reactions are conducted under microwave irradiation and reaction mixtures are purified by solid-phase extractions without performing chromatography.     

Effect of total percent polyacrylamide in capillary gel electrophoresis for DNA sequencing of short fragments. A phenomenological model.

Polyacrylamide capillary gels were prepared with constant (5% C) cross-linker concentration and with total acrylamide concentration ranging from 2.5 to 6% T. At each acrylamide concentration, peak spacing was constant for DNA sequencing fragments ranging from 25 to 250 nucleotides in length. Peak spacing increased linearly with the total acrylamide concentration. The intercept of the retention time vs. fragment length plot was independent of % T. Ferguson plots were constructed for short DNA fragments; the polyacrylamide pore size falls in the 2.5 to 3.5 nm range for the gels studied. Theoretical plate count is independent of total acrylamide concentration; longitudinal diffusion, and not thermal gradients, limit the plate count. A phenomenological model is presented that predicts retention time, plate count, and resolution for sequencing fragments ranging in size from 25 to 250 bases and gels that range from 2.5 to 6% total acrylamide.     

Predictions of moiré excitons in twisted two-dimensional organic–inorganic halide perovskites

Recent breakthrough in synthesizing arbitrary vertical heterostructures of Ruddlesden–Popper (RP) perovskites opens doors to myriad quantum optoelectronic applications. However, it is not clear whether moiré excitons and flat bands can be formed in such heterostructures. Here, we predict from first principles that twisted homobilayers of RP perovskite, MA₂PbI₄, can host moiré excitons and yield flat energy bands. The moiré excitons exhibit unique and hybridized characteristics with electrons confined in a single layer of a striped distribution while holes localized in both layers. Nearly flat valence bands can be formed in the bilayers with relatively large twist angles, thanks to the presence of hydrogen bonds that strengthen the interlayer coupling. External pressures can further increase the interlayer coupling, yielding more localized moiré excitons and flatter valence bands. Finally, electrostatic gating is predicted to tune the degree of hybridization, energy, position and localization of moiré excitons in twisted MA₂PbI₄ bilayers.

Excitonic states in twisted MA₂PbI₄ bilayers were calculated by first-principles calculations.     

Novel routes to 1-aryl-1,4-dihydro-3(2H)-isoquinolinones and 2-substituted or 2,3-disubstituted benzofurans by intramolecular cyclizations

N-(α-Benzotriazolylalkyl)arylacetamides, readily available from an arylacetamide, an aldehyde and benzotriazole, undergo intramolecular cyclization under acidic conditions to give 1-aryl-1,4-dihydro-3(2H)-isoquinolinones in good to excellent yields. Similarly, 2-(benzotriazol-1-yl)-2-(o-hydroxyphenyl)ethanols, obtained by lithiation of 2-(benzotriazol-1-ylmethyl)phenols followed by quenching with aldehydes or ketones, eliminate a molecule of water and a molecule of benzotriazole yielding 2-substituted and 2,3-disubstituted benzofurans.
