Kinetic and catalytic aspects of dimethylterephtalate transesterification also through the use of model molecules

Kinetic and catalytic aspects of DMT transesterification reaction, key step in the industrial production of polyethylenterephtalate (PET), have been deepened also through the use of model molecules such as CH₃COO–Ph–X. These molecules give the same reactions with ethylene glycol occurring in the DMT transesterification too. The use of model molecules in the study of this reaction seems therefore to be promising in perspective. As we observed, however, the nature of the para-substituent X has a very strong influence on the reaction rate, when salts of bivalent metals such as Zn, Cd, Co, Mg, Mn, are used as catalysts, while this influence is much smaller when a tetravalent metal, as Ti, is used. This fact suggests that the transesterification mechanism operating in the two cases is different and this suggestion has been confirmed by applying Hammett's approach to the available kinetic data. Experimental kinetic runs were all performed at 193°C, by withdrawing small samples of the reaction mixture at different reaction times. These samples were gaschromatographically analyzed. We found volcano shaped curves of the reaction rates as a function of the metal ion acidities and we obtained different trends with a maximum of activity shifted from a metal to another for different substrates. A comparison of the kinetic results obtained, respectively, with the model molecules and DMT will be reported too.     

SYNTHESIS AND CHARACTERIZATION OF PHTHALAZINONE POLY(ARYL ETHER SULFONE KETONE)WITH CARBONYL GROUP*

A kind of novel heat-resistant, high performance engineering thermoplastic phthalazinone poly(aryl ether sulfoneketone) (PPESK) containing a carboxyl group in its side chain was prepared by the nucleophilic displacement reaction of 4-(4-hydroxylphenyl)-1(2H)-phthalazinone with di(4-chlorophenyl) sulfone, 4,4'-difluoro-benzophenone and phenolphthalin insulfolane in the presence of K_2CO_3 to produce high molecular weight polymers which can be dissolved in some polarsolvents such as chloroform and nitrobenzene at room temperature and can be easily can into flexible, yellowish andtransparent films. PPESK is an amorphous polymer having a decomposition temperature above 400℃, which indicates that ithas high thermal stability. At the same time, the thermal properties of PPESKs with dicyandiamide (DICY) as curing agentindicated that the heat-resistance properties of the PPESKs are improved after curing. The apparent activation energy (ΔE) ofthe cross-linking reaction and the reaction order (n) of PPESK/DICY were found to be 52.2 kJ/mol and ca. 1.0, respectively.Therefore, the cross-linking reaction is approximately a first order reaction.     

Trihydroxy-2-thiaquinolizidine derivatives as a new class of bicyclic glycosidase inhibitors

Trihydroxy-2-thiaquinolizidines, a new class of bicyclic dideoxy-iminohexitol glycosidase inhibitor derivatives with nominally the d-gluco, l-ido, d-manno and l-gulo configurations were synthesized. X-ray analyses indicated that the preferred conformation for d-gluco and d-manno derivatives was a flat trans-fused system. Unlike deoxynojirimycin, the compound with d-gluco configuration was selective for α-glucosidases (yeast and rice) and showed no inhibitory activity towards β-glucosidase (almond), α-galactosidase (green coffee beans), α-galactosidase (E. coli) and α-mannosidase (jack bean), while the l-ido derivative was specific for β-glucosidase (almond).     

Improved results on the robustness of stochastic approximation algorithms

This paper is a continuation of the research carried out in [1]–[2], where the robustness analysis for stochastic approximation algorithms is given for two cases: 1. The regression function and the Liapunov function are not zero at the sought-forx ⁰; 2. lim sup _n a131_{n i=1} ⁿ _i+1 is not zero, where { _i } are the measurement errors and {a _n} are the weighting coefficients in the algorithm. Allowing these deviations from zero to occur simultaneously but to remain small, this paper shows that the estimation error is still small even for a class of measurement errors more general than that considered in [2].This project is supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China.     

Photochemistry of artificial photosynthetic reaction centers in liquid crystals probed by multifrequency EPR (9.5 and 95 GHz)

Photoinduced charge separation and recombination in a carotenoid-porphyrin-fullerene triad C-P-C(60)(1) have been followed by multifrequency time-resolved electron paramagnetic resonance (TREPR) at intermediate magnetic field and microwave frequency (X-band) and high field and frequency (W-band). The electron-transfer process has been characterized in the different phases of two uniaxial liquid crystals (E-7 and ZLI-1167). The triad undergoes photoinduced electron transfer, with the generation of a long-lived charge-separated state, and charge recombination to the triplet state, localized in the carotene moiety, mimicking different aspects of the photosynthetic electron-transfer process. Both the photoinduced spin-correlated radical pair and the spin-polarized recombination triplet are observed starting from the crystalline up to the isotropic phase of the liquid crystals. The W-band TREPR radical pair spectrum has allowed unambiguous assignment of the spin-correlated radical pair spectrum to the charge-separated state C(.+)-P-C(60)(.-). The magnetic interaction parameters have been evaluated by simulation of the spin-polarized radical pair spectrum and the spin-selective recombination rates have been derived from the time dependence of the spectrum. The weak exchange interaction parameter (J = +0.5 +/- 0.2 G) provides a direct measure of the dominant electronic coupling matrix element V between the C(.+)-P-C(60)(.-) radical pair state and the recombination triplet state (3)C-P-C(60). The kinetic parameters have been analyzed in terms of the effect of the liquid crystal medium on the electron-transfer process. Effects of orientation of the molecular triad in the liquid crystal are evidenced by simulations of the carotenoid triplet state EPR spectra at different orientations of the external magnetic field with respect to the director of the mesophase. The order parameter (S = 0.5 +/- 0.05) has been evaluated.
