A homodinuclear complex (NH3CH2CH2CH2NH3)2 {Na2[(C6H4O2)2] (C6H4O2H)2} (1) has been synthesized by a solution-based self-assembly route. It crystallized in monoclinic system with space group P21/c. Every sodium ion coordinates in a tetragonal prism fashion with two O atoms of a terminal chelating catecholate ligand and three O atoms from two bridging catecholate ligands. Two neighboring NaO5 tetragonal prisms are edge-shared and centrosymmetric with regard to the inversion center to form a binuclear cluster {Na2[(C6H4O2)2](C6H4OOH)2}^4- anion. The complex anions were aligned parallelly by n-n interaction and linked with the protonated 1,3-propylenediamine through hydrogen bonds which were assembled into a multi-lamellar structure with channels. The crystal exhibits rectangular geometry with an interior triangle hollow structure under optical microscopy. And the scanning electron microscopy (SEM) indicates that the wall of the tubes shows multi-lamella morphologies. Further, the transmission electron microscopy (TEM) reveals that the crystal is composed of multi-lamellar nano-tubes with diameters less than 100 nm. The molecular structure of the complex was compared with that of its isomer complex 2. 相似文献
Two novel chelating resins were prepared by anchoring ethylenediamine to crosslinked polystyrene via a spacer containing sulfide. Their structures were characterized by Fourier transform-infrared spectra (FTIR) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Porous structure parameters of the resins were measured by ASAP 2020 using BET and BJH methods. Their adsorption capacities for several heavy metal ions especially Hg2+ were investigated. The results showed that for the two resins, the more N contents did not mean the better adsorption capacity and the saturated adsorption capacity of poly(2-ethylenediamidomercaptomethylstyrene) (PSM-EDA) for Hg2+ could reach to 3.0 mmol/g at room temperature. Isothermal adsorptions of the resins for Hg2+ could be described by Langmuir formula. The adsorption mechanism of the resins for Hg2+, Cu2+ and Ag+ was confirmed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and FTIR. 相似文献
A new tocopherol derivative, 7a‐methoxy‐α‐tocopherol ( 1 ), and a new taraxastane triterpene, taraxast‐1,20(30)‐dien‐3‐one ( 5 ), together with four known compounds, β‐tocopherol ( 2 ), α‐tocopherol ( 3 ), α‐tocospiro B ( 4 ) and taraxasterone ( 6 ) were isolated from the whole plant of Sida acuta. Their structures were elucidated by spectral analysis including MS, 1D and 2D‐NMR spectroscopy. Among those compounds, compounds 1 , 2 , and 3 showed significant antioxidant effect (EC50 = 86.9, 68.2, and 70.9 μM, respectively) in the DPPH radicals scavenging activity assay. 相似文献
A high sensitive flow-injection chemiluminescence method for determination of calf thymus DNA and herring sperm DNA has been developed. The method is based on the chemiluminescence reaction of Rhodamine B-cerium(IV)-thermally denatured DNAs in sulfuric acid media. The proposed procedure allows quantitation of DNAs in the range 2.6×10−5 to 0.26 μg ml−1 for calf thymus DNA and 5.0×10−8 to 5.0×10−5 μg ml−1 for herring sperm DNA with correlation coefficients 0.9998 and 0.9996 (both n=11), respectively. The detection limits (3σ) are 6.5×10−6 μg ml−1 for calf thymus DNA and 4.3×10−8 μg ml−1 for herring sperm DNA. The possible mechanism of chemiluminescence in the system is discussed. 相似文献
Novel linear poly(NIPA‐co‐CL) copolymers have been synthesized by radical copolymerization of N‐isopropylacrylamide (NIPA) and 2‐methylene‐1,3‐dioxepane (MDO). The structure of copolymers was confirmed by 1H NMR and IR spectroscopy. Cross‐linked poly(NIPA‐co‐CL) hydrogels have also been prepared in toluene using N,N′‐methylenebisacrylamide as cross‐linking agent. The hydrogels thus obtained exhibit good temperature response and are biodegradable in the presence of proteinase K.

Human lenses contain many photosensitizers that absorb light at wavelengths above 300 nm, most notably UVA light (320-400 nm). Kynurenine (Kyn) and 3-hydroxykynurenine (HK), two of the best-known photosensitizers in the human lens, may play a significant role in photooxidation-related changes in lens proteins, such as conformational change and aggregation. In vitro irradiation experiments with proteins indicate that the Trp residue (with maximal absorption at 295 nm) is more susceptible to photooxidation by UVB light (280-320 nm) than by UVA light, but most UVB light below 300 nm is screened by the cornea and little reaches the lens, especially the nuclear region where nuclear color develops. Therefore, if photooxidation is an important contributor to nuclear color or nuclear cataract, it must arise from a photosensitized reaction. In the present study, we use recombinant alpha A- and its Trp-deficient mutant W9F as models to study the effects of UVA irradiation in the presence of HK or Kyn and of UVB (300 nm) irradiation on alpha-crystallins. alpha A-crystallin showed a large decrease in Trp fluorescence and a large increase in non-Trp (blue) fluorescence after the HK-sensitized or 300 nm photooxidation. For the W9F mutant, a smaller decrease in protein fluorescence (lambda ex at 280 nm) and a smaller increase in blue fluorescence than for the wild-type alpha A-crystallin were observed. A decrease in the near-UV CD was also observed for both photooxidized alpha A and the W9F mutant. The effect of Kyn sensitization is smaller than that of HK sensitization. A study of chaperone-like activity indicated that only 300 nm photooxidized alpha A and the W9F mutant increased the ability to protect insulin from dithiothreitol-induced aggregation. Thus, sensitized photooxidation can occur in amino acids other than Trp by UVA in the presence of HK or Kyn with effects similar to, albeit smaller than, those of direct UVB (300 nm) photooxidation. 相似文献
A method for determination of selenium in plasma and hair with ternary inclusion compound-fluorescent spectrophotometry has been developed. The determination of selenium in plasma and hair can be performed directly in aqueous solution. Blood and hair samples were destroyed by oxygen flask combustion. The linear range was 10-500 ng mL-1 for plasma and 10-100 ng mL-1 for hair. Within-day and day-to-day precisions for plasma ranged from 5.4% to 9.3% (n = 7) and from 3.5% to 14.5% (n = 7), respectively. Within-day precisions for hair ranged from 0.6% to 6.2% (n = 7). Recoveries ranged from 91.0% to 97.8% for plasma and from 95.0% to 102.0% for hair. The blood samples from 15 Hans and 20 Uygurs in Xinjiang Uygur automatic region and 23 Hans in Liaoning province were collected and determined. It was indicated that no statistically significant difference in plasma selenium concentration of the Hans between Xinjiang and Liaoning was found (F = 1.36, P > 0.05). However, there were statistically significant differences between the Hans and the Uygurs in Xinjiang (F = 1.01, P < 0.01) and between males and females in the two areas (P < 0.01). There was a low correlation between plasma selenium concentration and hair selenium concentration. The ratio of hair selenium concentration to plasma selenium concentration was 2.17, with a range of 1.63-2.88. 相似文献
A numerical model for calculating the electrostatic interaction between two particles of arbitrary shape and topology is described. A key feature of the model is a generalized discretization program, capable of simulating any desired analytical shape as a set of flat, triangular elements. The relative sizes of the elements are adjusted using a density function to better match the desired shape and the spatial variation of the electrical surface properties on each particle. The distribution of either surface potential or surface charge density is then calculated using a boundary element approach to solve the linearized Poisson-Boltzmann equation. Example interaction energy profiles are calculated for three different types of roughness-bumps, pits, and surface waves. It is found that the interaction energy between rough particles remains different from that between two equivalent smooth spheres at all separations, even for gap widths much larger than either the solution Debye length or the characteristic roughness size. This behavior at large gap widths arises from the nature of the decay of the electric potential away from each particle. In addition, the magnitude of the roughness effect is found to depend greatly on the size and shape of the nonuniformity as well as the electrostatic boundary conditions. For example, for a sphere containing asperities of height equal to 0.2 times the particle radius, the interaction energy can be as much as 50% greater than that between two equivalent spheres under the condition of constant surface potential. At constant surface charge density, the ratio of the interaction energies between rough and smooth spheres was found to either diverge or become zero as contact between the two particles is approached, depending on the nature of the roughness. Changes of this magnitude could clearly have a substantial impact on the stability behavior of a dispersion of such particles. Copyright 2001 Academic Press. 相似文献
Sulfur diisocyanate is generated from a heterogeneous reaction of gaseous sulfur dichloride with silver cyanate and studied for the first time in the gas phase. Combined with quantum chemical calculations, the electronic structure is characterized by photoelectron spectroscopy (PES). Simultaneously, an investigation of the possible ionization and dissociation processes for the molecular cation is presented based on experimental soft ionization mass spectrometry. From the calculated bond-dissociation energies, the dissociation pathway is determined. S(NCO)2+ undergoes 1,3-sigmatropic rearrangement with a smaller barrier height (9.9 kcal mol(-1)) than the neutral counterpart. Thus, the 1,3-sigmatropic rearrangement is preferred for the molecular cation, and OCNCO+ and NS+ is produced by subsequent dissociation of the rearrangement product. The analysis agrees very well with the experimental mass spectrum. 相似文献
