The synthesis of biphenylisopropyloxycarbonyl-amino acid salts

A number of biphenylisopropyloxycarbonyl-blocked amino acids have been synthesized as their cyclohexylamine or dicyclohexylamine salts, and their properties described. A facile method for regenerating the Bpoc-amino acids from their salts is detailed, along with the conditions used to determine that the syntheses are free of racemization.     

Potentiometric determination of tetraphenylborate ions with silver nitrate. Determination of silver, potassium and thallium(I)

Summary The potentiometric determination of tetraphenylborate with silver nitrate solution was investigated a) at i=0 in the presence of calomel reference electrode and silver resp. silicone rubber based halide-selective indicator electrodes and b) at i0 in the presence of silver (cathode)-calomel, silver-silver, silver-platinum, platinum-silver and graphite-silver electrode couples. An indirect method is described for the determination of potassium ions with potentiometric end-point indication. Experiments were also carried out in order to develop methods for the titration of silver, potassium and thallium(I) ions with sodium tetraphenylborate solution in the presence of anodic polarized graphite and calomel reference electrodes. The relative standard deviations were 0.38–0.49% for tetraphenylborate, 1.96% for potassium and 1.07% for thallium(I).

Zusammenfassung Die Möglichkeit der potentiometrischen Bestimmung von Tetraphenylborat mit Silbernitrat wurde untersucht a) in Anwesenheit von Kalomel-Bezugselektrode und Silber- bzw. haloidselektiven Silicongummi-Indicatorelektroden bei i=0 und b) in Anwesenheit von Silber (Kathode)-Kalomel-, Silber-Silber, Silber-Platin-, Platin-Silber- und Graphit-Silber-Elektrodenpaaren bei i0. Eine Methode zur indirekten potentiometrischen Bestimmung von Kalium sowie Verfahren zur Bestimmung von Silber-, Kalium- und Thallium(I)-ionen mit Natriumtetraphenylboratlösung in Anwesenheit einer anodisch polarisierten Graphitelektrode und einer Kalomel-Referenzelektrode wurden ausgearbeitet.

Laser-assisted electron capture by a fast proton from a hydrogen atom

The first Born approximation is used to study the laser-assisted electron capture by a fast proton from a hydrogen atom. The laser modification on differential cross section peaks sharply in the forward direction. With the impact energy increasing, the change in integral cross section becomes notable. The more intense the laser, the greater the cross section is; the lower the frequency, the greater the cross section.     

Analytical fractionation of aquatic humic substances and their metal species by means of multistage ultrafiltration

The molecular-size fractionation of aquatic humic substances (HS) and their metal species by means of a novel sequential-stage ultrafiltration (UF) device equipped with five appropriate ultramembranes (1, 5, 10, 50 and 100 kD) is described. First of all, the concentration dynamics of macromolecules, particulary HS, during five-stage UF and its subsequent washing step has been modelled. Based on these results, the fractionation of aquatic HS (from ground and bog water) by means of multistage UF has been optimized for an analytical scale (10 ml sample, 1 mg/ml HS, 10 ml washing solution, pH 6.0). The molecular size-distribution of selected aquatic HS (BOC 1/2 from the DFG-Versuchsfeld Bocholt, VM 5 from Venner Moor, Germany) studied by five-stage UF exhibited strong systematic influences of the procedure used for their isolation. The molecular-size distribution of HS obtained by on-line UF and gel permeation chromatography (GPC) showed a satisfactory agreement in the range 1–50 kD. Moreover, when interrupting multistage UF for > 48 h a slow transformation in the HS samples has been found as gradually additional HS fractions of < 1 kD have been formed. Besides unloaded HS molecules, the molecular-size distribution of freshly formed metal species of HS (1.0 mg metal/g HS of Al(III), Cd(II), Cu(II), Fe(III), Mn(II), Ni(II), Pb(II), Zn(II), each) has been characterized by multistage UF as a function of pH-value, degree of loading and complexation time. Metal determinations as carried out by flame AAS, showed that considerable metal fractions in HS especially are present in molecules > 50 kD, which seemed to be rather acid-inert. With complexation times of < 2 days a transient shift of the molecular size distribution of both HS and their metal species (e.g., Al(III), Fe(III) to higher values (> 10 kD) has been found.     

Structure of ursinoic acid and ursinin

Conclusions On the basis of UV, IR, and NMR spectroscopy, and the preparation of derivatives, the most probable structures of ursinoic acid and ursinin, aromatic oxo acids isolated previously from the roots ofAngelica ursina Rupr. et Schmalh., have been established. It has been shown that the former has the structure 2,2-dimethylpyrano-5, 6:5, 6-(2, 4-dimethoxy)benzoylacetic acid while the second is 2,2-dimethylpyrano-5,6:5, 6-(2-methoxy)benzoylacetic acid.Khimiya Prirodnykh Soedinenii, Vol. 6, No. 4, pp. 421–424, 1970     

Polarographic study of the reaction between cerium(IV) and thiocyanate

Summary Polarographic studies have been made of the reaction between Cerium(IV) and potassium thiocyanate in acidic medium. Ce^IVin the concentration range 2 · 10^–4 M to 5 · 10^–3 M was found to be reduced to Ce^III by thiocyanate ion. One equivalent of thiocyanate reduced 4–6 equivalents of Ce^IV in the concentration range studied.

Application of preparative high-speed counter-current chromatography for separation of methyl gallate from Acer truncatum Bunge

Preparative separation of methyl gallate in leaves extract of Acer truncatum Bunge was conducted using high-speed counter-current chromatography (HSCCC) with a solvent system composed of ethyl acetate-ethanol-water at volume ratios of 5:1:5 (v/v/v). In a single operation, 57.5 mg of methyl gallate was obtained from 120 mg of the extract. HPLC analyses of the counter-current chromatography (CCC) fraction revealed that the methyl gallate was having over 97% purity. Its structure was identified by 1H NMR and 13C NMR.
