Catalytic phenomena in the electrochemical reduction of triphenylphosphine and triphenylphosphine oxide in non-aqueous solvents with tetraalkylammonium supporting electrolytes

Polarography, cyclic voltammetry and coulometry reveal that a catalytic reduction of the tetraalkylammonium cation, R₄N⁺, of the supporting electrolyte is involved in the electrochemical reduction of triphenylphosphine (TPP) and its oxide (TPPO) in aprotic solvents such as acetonitrile, dimethylformamide and hexamethylphosphoramide. There is however progressive consumption of TPP and TPPO resulting in the final formation of phenyl substitution products (RPØ₂ and ROPØ₂). Comparison with the reduction of the BuPØ₃⁺ cation allows to propose the following mechanism which involves a chemical type catalytic process:

Redox type catalytic mechanisms are discussed and shown to be unlikely. Values of the alkylation rate constant are derived from the polarographic or the coulometric data or from cyclic voltammetry according to its magnitude which varies with the solvent. TPP anion radical appears as more readily alkylable than TPPO anion radical.     

Mechanism of sorption of phenols from aqueous solutions onto surfactant-modified montmorillonite

Equilibrium and kinetic studies on the sorption of phenol, m-nitrophenol (m-NP), and o-cresol from water onto montmorillonite modified with cetyltrimethylammounium bromide (CTAB) were conducted. Experiments were carried out as a function of solution pH, sorbate concentration, and temperature (25-55 degrees C). It was shown that the sorption capacity decreased in the order phenol>o-cresol>m-NP. The Langmuir, dual-mode sorption, and Redlich-Peterson models were tested to fit the sorption isotherms of single-solute systems, whereas the Langmuir competitive model was used to describe bisolute sorption equilibria. Thermodynamic parameters (DeltaH degrees and DeltaS degrees ) and the mean free energy (E) for the sorption of phenols were determined from the temperature dependence of the distribution constant and the Dubinin-Radushkevick equation, respectively. A simplified kinetic model was proposed to confirm the sorption mechanism.     

Adsorption separation of terpene lactones from Ginkgo biloba L. extract using glass fiber membranes modified with octadecyltrichlorosilane

In this study porous glass fiber membranes were modified by reaction with octadecyl-trichlorosilane to form C18 hydrophobic membranes. The contact angle and the CH2 vibration bands at 2855 and 2920 cm(-1) found by FTIR measurements verified the successful immobilization of C18 groups on the glass fiber membranes. The resulting C18 hydrophobic membranes were used to adsorb terpene lactones from crude Ginkgo biloba L. extracts. In batch adsorption processes, the modified C18 membranes exhibited a better adsorption performance than commercial C18 solid phase extraction adsorbents. Different desorption solvents were tested and ethyl acetate was found to preferentially desorb terpene lactones from the modified C18 membranes. In flow adsorption experiments at 1 mL/min, terpene lactone contents higher than 6 wt% (the standardized content) could be achieved in the elution step using ethyl acetate.     

Preparation and characterization O-lauroyl chitosan/poly (L-lactic acid) blend membranes by solution-casting approach

O-Lauroyl chitosan/poly(L-lactide) (OCS/PLLA) blend membranes with different compositions were prepared by solution-casting approach using chloroform as common solvent. The experimental results of FT-IR, DSC and WAXD indicated that inter-association hydrogen-bond interactions existed between OCS and PLLA in the blend membranes. And SEM observation confirmed that the blend membranes with suitable compositions were compatible.     

12-钼磷酸—聚乙烯醇的光电子转移反应

12-钼磷酸—聚乙烯醇体系具有不可逆光致变色的特性。根据X射线光电子能谱、电子自旋共振谱、紫外及可见光谱的测试结果,笔者认为:在PMo_(12)-PVA的光电子转移反应中,PMo_(12)既是氧化剂也是光敏剂。PMo_(12)分子中氧可分成O_p、O_b和O_t三种情况.其中O_t可成为光化学的活性位置,它和PVA羟基上的氧均较易被紫外光激活。激活的0_t边使周围的一个电荷向金属原子(Mo~(Ⅵ))转移,边与PVA羟基上被激活的氧作用,电子就由此羟基上的氧向O_t转移,致使体系中部分PMo_(12)与PVA发生二电子或四电子氧化还原反应,形成Mo(Ⅵ、Ⅴ)配合物而变色,同时,PVA分子的部分羟基及该羟基位的碳上脱氢形成羰基而具有酮结构。此外,从Mo(V)的ESR特征信号随时间变化而减弱,但其吸收光谱的吸光度未变,于是推断该光化学反应过程中尚有Mo(Ⅳ)生成,已由XPS谱证实。     

Totally selective ring-opening of amino epoxides with ketones: a general entry to enantiopure (2R,3S)- and (2S,3S)-3-aminoalkano-1,2-diols

[Reaction: see text] Transformation of enantiopure diastereoisomers (2R,1'S)- and (2S,1'S)-2-(1-aminoalkyl)epoxides into the corresponding 4-(1-aminoalkyl)-1,3-dioxolanes is achieved by reaction with different ketones in the presence of BF3.Et2O. The conversion takes place in very high yields, total selectivity, and without epimerization. A mechanism to explain this transformation is proposed. The obtained 1,3-dioxolanes can be deprotected, and (2R,3S)- and (2S,3S)-3-aminoalkano-1,2-diols were isolated.

Study on the interaction between nucleic acids and cationic surfactants

The interactions of nucleic acids and cationic surfactants (cetylpyridine bromide (CPB) and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTMAB)) in aqueous solution have been studied using the techniques of resonance light scattering (RLS) spectroscopy, the absorption spectroscopy, zeta potential assay and NMR assignment measurement. It is considered that CPB or CTMAB can assemble on the surface of nucleic acid via electrostatic and hydrophobic forces, which results in the formation of large associate of nucleic acid-cationic surfactant and RLS enhancement of nucleic acid. Besides these forces, the pi-pi stacking force between CPB and nucleic acid also exists in the associate. In comparison with CTMAB, CPB has larger enhancement on RLS of nucleic acid, which is attributed to that the enhancement of the former is only due to the absorption of the bases of nucleic acid, while the enhancement of the latter is own to the synergetic resonance caused by the absorption of both bases of nucleic acid and the pyridyl in CPB. These results have important implication for understanding the influence of surfactants on nucleic acid functionality in life science.
