Tumor cells transduced with herpes simplex virus thymidine kinase gene have been intensively applied to the field of positron emission tomography via imaging of its substrate. As a pilot synthesis approach, a facile preparation of 5‐[¹²⁵I] iodoarabinosyl uridine starting from commercially available uridine is reported herein.     

Synthesis and functional properties of thermosensitive polymer derivatives of proteins

N,N-Diethylacrylamide-N-acryloylphthalimide copolymers have been synthesized. The LCST of the synthesized copolymers decreases with increase in both the molecular mass of the copolymers and the content of more hydrophobic N-acryloylphthalimide units. Through the reaction of the copolymers with the proteinase enzyme inhibitor, ovomucoid, the polymer derivatives of protein have been prepared. It has been shown that the biological activity of ovomucoid and the LCST of polymer derivatives increase with the amount of the immobilized ovomucoid. The effect of biologically active media on the LCST values of polymer derivatives has been studied.     

纯锆上离子注入钇和镧后的表面分析

用金属蒸汽真空弧源，以40kV加速电压对纯锆样品分别进行了10¹⁶—10¹⁷/cm²的钇、镧离子注入，注入温度约为130℃.然后对注入样品进行表面分析.x射线光电子能谱分析表明，注入的钇以Y₂O₃形式存在，镧以La₂O₃形式存在.俄歇电子能谱表明，纯锆基体表面的氧化膜厚度随着离子注入剂量的增加而增加，当离子注入剂量达到10¹⁷/cm²时，氧化膜的厚度达到了最大值.卢瑟福背散射显示镧层的厚度约为30nm，同时直接观察到当离子注入剂量为(La+Y)10¹⁷/cm²时，纯锆样品表面发生了严重的溅射. 关键词： 纯锆 钇和镧离子共注入 卢瑟福背散射 x射线光电子能谱     

Synthesis of grafted poly(p‐phenyleneethynylene) with energy donor–acceptor architecture via atom transfer radical polymerization: Towards nonaggregating and hole‐facilitating light‐emitting material

In this contribution, we demonstrate a new effective methodology for constructing highly efficient and durable poly(p‐phenyleneethynylene) (PPE) containing emissive material with nonaggregating and hole‐facilitating properties through the introduction of hole‐transporting blocks into the PPE system as the grafting coils as well as building the energy donor–acceptor architecture between the grafting coils and the PPE backbone. Poly(2‐(carbazol‐9‐yl)ethyl methacrylate) (PCzEMA), herein, is chosen as the hole‐transporting blocks, and incorporated into the PPE system as the grafting coils via atom transfer radical polymerization. The chemical structure of the resultant copolymer, PPE‐g‐PCzEMA, was characterized by NMR and gel permeation chromatography, showing that the desirable copolymer was obtained with the narrow polydispersity. The increased thermal stability of PPE‐g‐PCzEMA was confirmed by thermogravimetric analysis and differential scanning calorimetry along with its macroinitiator. The optoelectronic properties of this copolymer were studied in detail by ultraviolet‐visible absorption, photoluminescence emission and excitation spectra, and cyclic voltammogram (CV). The results indicate that PPE‐g‐PCzEMA exhibits the solid‐state luminescent property dominated by individual lumophores, and also the energy transfer process from the PCzEMA blocks to the PPE backbone with a relatively higher energy transfer efficiency in the solid‐state compared to that of the solution state. Additionally, the hole‐injection property is greatly facilitated due to the presence of PCzEMA, as confirmed by CV profiles. All these data indicate that PPE‐g‐PCzEMA is a good candidate for use in optoelectronic devices. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem 45: 3776–3787, 2007
