The reaction of copper(II) perchlorate hexahydrate with a number of sulphur(II) compounds in acetonitrile as solvent were studied. It is found that SCl2, N,N′-thiobisamines S(NR2)2, ethoxythiomorpholineC2H5O-S-Nand pentacarbonyl (thiobismorpholine) chromium(O)[Cr(CO)5·S(NO)2]reduce Cu(II) with formation of the complex Cu[(CH3CN)4]CIO4 and SO2. 相似文献
Crystals of antimony-doped In2Se3 were grown by the Bridgeman method. This compound, whose composition is In1.8Sb0.2Se3, appears to be isostructural with In1.9As0.1Se3. The refined unit cell parameters are a = 3.97(1), c = 18.87(1) Å. Orthorhombic crystals of InSbSe3 were grown from an isothermal melt. The refined unit cell parameters are a = 9.43(1), b = 14.02(5), and c = 3.96(1) Å. These parameters agree with those determined for α-InSbSe3 by other studies. The observed densities measured by a hydrostatic technique are 5.98(3) g/cm3 for In1.8Sb0.2Se3 and 6.07(2) g/cm3 for InSbSe3. The room temperature dc resistivity for In1.8Sb0.2Se3 has been found to be 4.4 × 104 Ω-cm, whereas that of InSbSe3 has been found to be 15.2(1) Ω-cm. A resistivity versus temperature study has beenn carried out for InSbSe3 between 230 and 400°K. Optical studies indicate that In1.8Sb0.2Se3 is an n-type semiconductor with a band gap of 1.1 eV and InSbSe3 is a p-type semiconductor with a band gap of 0.92 eV. 相似文献
Previous studies of the fractionated venom of the Brazilian armed spider Phoneutria nigriventer, obtained by gel filtration, have demonstrated the presence of a fraction PhM, a pool of small peptides (up to 2000 Da) that provoke contractions in smooth muscle of guinea pig ileum. Initial attempts to sequence these peptides were largely unsuccessful because of the low purification yield and the fact that the majority seemed to be blocked at their N-termini. In the present work, analysis of this venom fraction by mass spectrometry has revealed the existence of a highly complex mixture of peptides with molecular weights corresponding to those observed for the muscle-active peptides previously described (800-1800 Da). These peptides appear to be a family of isoforms with some particular features. The amino acid sequences of 15 isoforms have been determined by tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) using both electrospray ionization quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (ESI-Q/ToFMS) and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization tandem time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-ToF/ToFMS). These molecules contain post-translational modifications such as proteolysis and C-terminal amidation, which combine to generate additional isoforms. All the isoforms sequenced in this study possess an N-terminal pyroglutamic acid residue. A search for sequence similarities with other peptides in databanks revealed that these peptides are structurally related to the tachykinins, a family of neuro-hormone peptides. The data obtained in this study will be essential for the subsequent steps of this research, the synthesis of these peptides and pharmacological characterization of their biological activity. 相似文献
Interaction of atomic hydrogen with cluster models simulating the Rh(111) surface has been studied at the ab initio SCF level using relativistic non-empirical pseudopotentials and moderately large basis sets. From the bonding parameters, it is seen that chemisorption on the threefold open position is five times more favoured than on the threefold eclipsed one, and the bonding picture is rather different for both active sites. Since two different kinds of adsorbed hydrogen atoms should exist according to various experimental techniques, the present work adds further evidence to the existence of these two types of adsorption and reports some structural parameters which can help to a more detailed characterization in the near future. 相似文献
The synthesis by two alternative routes of 1-(3-benzo[b]thienyloxy)-3-isopropylamino-2-propanol hydrochloride ( 1a HCl), a thiophenic isoster of Propranolol, and related compounds, is reported. The protecting and enolizing properties of the 2-methoxycarbonyl group on benzo[b]thiophene-3-one, along with its facile removal, are utilized in the first route. In the second one, conversion of 3-bromobenzo[b]thiophene in 1-(3-benzo[b]thienyloxy)-2,3-o-isopropylidenepropane is the key step. On the other hand, hydrolysis of 1-(3-benzo[b]furanyloxy)-2,3-o-isopropylidenepropane to the corresponding diol, in order to obtain a furanic isoster of Propranolol (17a ), was unsuccessful. 相似文献
The structural, dynamical, and recognition properties of antiparallel DNA triplexes formed by the antiparallel d(G#G.C), d(A#A.T), and d(T#A.T) motifs (the pound sign and dot mean reverse-Hoogsteen and Watson-Crick hydrogen bonds, respectively) are studied by means of "state of the art" molecular dynamics simulations. Once the characteristics of the helix are defined, molecular dynamics and thermodynamic integration calculations are used to determine the expected stabilization of the antiparallel triplex caused by the introduction of 8-aminopurines. Finally, oligonucleotides containing 8-aminopurine derivatives are synthesized and tested experimentally using several approaches in a variety of systems. A very large stabilization of the triplex is found experimentally, as predicted by simulations. These results open the possibility for the use of oligonucleotides carrying 8-aminopurines to bind single-stranded nucleic acids by formation of antiparallel triplexes. 相似文献
The performance of a recently developed method to generate representative atomistic models of amorphous polymers has been investigated. This method, which is denoted SuSi, can be defined as a random generator of energy minima. The effects produced by different parameters used to define the size of the system and the characteristics of the generation algorithm have been examined. Calculations have been performed on poly(L,D-lactic) acid (rho = 1.25 g/cm3) and nylon 6 (rho = 1.084 g/cm(3)), which are important commercial polymers. 相似文献
Structural characteristics of CeO(2)-ZrO(2)/TiO(2) (CZ/T) and V(2)O(5)/CeO(2)-ZrO(2)/TiO(2) (V/CZ/T) mixed oxide catalysts have been investigated using X-ray diffraction (XRD), BET surface area, Raman spectroscopy (RS), and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HREM) techniques. The CeO(2)-ZrO(2) (1:1 mole ratio) solid solution was deposited over a finely powdered TiO(2) support by a deposition precipitation method. A nominal 5 wt % V(2)O(5) was impregnated over the calcined (773 K) CZ/T mixed oxide carrier by a wet impregnation technique. The obtained CZ/T and V/CZ/T samples were further subjected to thermal treatments from 773 to 1073 K to understand the dispersion and temperature stability of these materials. In the case of CZ/T samples, the XRD results suggest the formation of different cubic and tetragonal Ce-Zr-oxide phases, Ce(0.75)Zr(0.25)O(2), Ce(0.6)Zr(0.4)O(2), Ce(0.5)Zr(0.5)O(2), and Ce(0.16)Zr(0.84)O(2) in varying proportions depending on the treatment temperature. With increasing calcination temperature from 773 to 1073 K, the intensity of the lines pertaining to cubic Ce(0.6)Zr(0.4)O(2) and Ce(0.5)Zr(0.5)O(2) phases increased at the expense of cubic Ce(0.75)Zr(0.25)O(2), indicating more incorporation of zirconia into the ceria lattice. The TiO(2) was mainly in the anatase form whose crystallite size also increased with increasing treatment temperature. A better crystallization and more incorporation of zirconia into the ceria lattice was noted when CZ/T was impregnated with V(2)O(5). However, no crystalline V(2)O(5) could be seen from both XRD and RS measurements. In particular, a preferential formation of CeVO(4) compound and an intense tetragonal Ce(0.16)Zr(0.84)O(2) phase were noted beyond 873 K. The HREM results indicate, in the case of CZ/T samples, a well-dispersed Ce-Zr-oxide of the size approximately 5 nm over the bigger crystals ( approximately 40 nm) of TiO(2) when treated at 873 K. The exact structural features of these crystals as determined by digital diffraction analysis of experimental images reveal that the Ce-Zr-oxides are mainly in the cubic fluorite geometry and the TiO(2) is in anatase form. A better crystallization of Ce-Zr-oxides ( approximately 8 nm) over the surface of bigger crystals of TiO(2) was noted at 1073 K. A further enhancement in the crystallite size and zirconia-rich tetragonal phase was noted in the case of V/CZ/T samples. Further, the structure of CeVO(4) formed was also clearly identified in conformity with XRD and RS results. 相似文献
An analysis is made of experimental ultraviolet erythemal solar radiation data measured during the years 2000 and 2001 by the Spanish UV-B radiation evaluation and prediction network. This network consists of 16 Robertson-Berger type pyranometers for evaluating solar erythemal radiation and five Brewer spectroradiometers for evaluating the stratospheric ozone. On the basis of these data the Ultraviolet Index (UVI) was evaluated for the measuring stations that are located either in coastal regions or in the more densely populated regions inland on the Iberian Peninsula. It has been checked that in most cases the maximum irradiance values corresponded to solar noon, although there were exceptions that could be explained by cloudiness. The maximum experimental values of the UVI were around 9 during the summer, though frequently passing this value at the inland measurement stations. The annual accumulated dose of irradiation on a horizontal plane has also been studied, as well as the evolution through the year in units of energy, standard erythemal doses and minimum erythemal doses, according to different phototypes. 相似文献
Water is an efficient solvent for the Rh2(OAc)4 catalysed intramolecular C-H insertion of a range of diazo substrates without competitive water insertion. Due to the high solubility and stability of the catalyst in water, the catalyst can be efficiently reused. 相似文献
