CnB-的激光等离子体产生与质谱分析

Time-of-flight mass spectrum of C_nB~- has been recorded on a selfbuilt instrument with laser vaporization of tetraphenylboron sodium. By analysis of the com-position of the anions, it is found that number of the boron atoms in any of these ions equals to the number of the charges carried by the anion, and the sum of the numbers of the carbon and boron atoms in these species are always the odd numbers. The experimental results show that boron atom has a strong tendency to attract an electron so that those C_nB~- will have similar electronic structures as C_n, and carbon clusters with odd members are always more stable than their even neighbors.

Fe/Zn double metal cyanide catalyzed ring-opening polymerization of propylene oxide: 2. Characterization of active structure of double metal cyanide catalysts

Double metal cyanide (DMC) complexes based on Zn₃[Fe(CN)₆]₂ were synthesized using different molar ratios of ZnCl₂ to K₃[Fe(CN)₆] and special complexing agents. IR spectroscopy, electron spectroscopy for chemical analysis, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and other analytical techniques were employed to characterize these catalysts. The morphology and structure of these DMC catalysts were attributed to the different complexing agents as well as to the different molar ratios of ZnCl₂ to K₃[Fe(CN)₆]. In addition, the catalytic activity was strongly correlated with the morphology and noncrystalline content of DMC catalysts. High-activity catalysts could be prepared by controlling the structure of DMC catalysts by incorporating complexing agents. The active species of DMC catalysts for ring-opening polymerization are Zn²⁺, [Fe(CN)₆]^3–, Cl^–, and the compound of their ligands.     

Characteristics of excited-state intermediates of TiO2–Y-Zeolite and MCM41 encapsulating photosensitive molecules: design of new photocatalysts

Some photosensitive molecules, such as p-N,N′-dimethylaminobenzoic acid (DMABA), Nile Red, heteropolytungstic acid (H₃PW₁₂O₄₀, HPA) and metalloporphyrins, have been entrapped onto nano-scale pores or channels of TiO₂-modified Y-Zeolite (TiO₂-Y-Zeolite) and MCM41 (TiO₂-MCM41) and their excited-state intermediates have been characterized in terms of the excited-state dynamics by using laser spectroscopic techniques. Through these studies, it has been found that the photo-induced electrons are generated from the intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) state of DMABA, Nile Red or metalloporphyrin (MnTPP(Cl)), followed by transferring to the TiO₂-Y-Zeolite or TiO₂-MCM41 more efficiently as compared to the bulk TiO₂, NaY-Zeolite or MCM41. The efficient photoinduced interfacial electron transfer causes the rapid formation of radicals of those photosensitive molecules (a few tens ps). It has been also found that these photophysical properties can be applied to develop the new photocatalyst as observed by the efficient photocatalytic activities of the DMABA or Nile Red-entrapped TiO₂-Y-Zeolites for the photoreduction of an azo-dye such as Methyl Orange in water. On the other hand, in case of HPA-entrapped TiO₂-Y-zeolite, the electron generated from the excited-state TiO₂ is transferred to HPA, followed by formation of the reduction product, heteropoly blue (HPB) which is also generated by UV irradiation of HPA. This electron transfer is analogous to the Z-scheme mechanism of plant photosynthetic systems showing two photon reactions. Because of this photoelectron transfer mechanism, the HPA-entrapped TiO₂-Y-zeolite has demonstrated the synergistic enhancement of the photocatalytic decomposition of Methyl Orange and hydrogen generation from photolysis of water.

The title compound, [Mn(C₁₀H₈O₅S)(H₂O)₄]_n, a one‐dimensional manganese(II) complex comprising helical chains bridged by 4‐(carboxylatomethylsulfanyl)phenoxyacetate ligands has been characterized by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction analysis. Hydrogen‐bonding inter­actions between adjacent chains extend the complex into a three‐dimensional supra­molecular architecture.     

Synthesis of 4-[(1,3-diaminopyrrolo[3′,4′:4,5]pyrido[2,3-d]-pyrimidin-8-yl)benzoyl]-L-glutamic acid as a potential antifolate

This paper is dedicated to the memory of Professor Roland K. Robins The synthesis of 4-[(1,3-diaminopyrrolo[3′,4′:4,5]pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-8-yl)benzoyl]-L-glutamic acid ( 18 ), a potential antifolate and anticancer agent, has been achieved starting from 1,4-dibromobutan-2-ol with alkyl p-aminobenzoic acids. Condensation of these two agents gave 1-(4-alkoxycarbonylphenyl)pyrrolidin-3-ols 7a,b , which were oxidized to the corresponding pyrrolidin-3-one derivatives 8a,b . Compounds 8a,b were converted into 1,3-diamino-8-(4-alkoxycarbonylphenyl)-7,8-dihydro-9H-pyrrolo[3′,4′:4,5]pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidines 12a,b in 4 steps. Saponification of 12b the benzoate ester and coupling with di-tert-butyl glutamate afforded a mixture of 7,8-dihydro product 16 and its aromatized derivative 17 . Finally hydrolysis of esters 16 or 17 gave only the title compound 18 . The 7,8-dihydro tricyclic derivatives were easily air-oxidized to form their fully aromatized compounds. The title compound 18 was one tenth less active than MTX against HL-60 cells in culture.     

Solvent-modulated chemoselective deprotections of trialkylsilyl esters and chemoselective esterifications

A series of trialkylsilyl esters were deprotected or transesterificated into their corresponding carboxylic acids or methyl esters under a catalytic amount of CBr₄ in alcohol reaction system. This method enables to desilylate secondary sp³-carbon, sp²-carbon, sp-carbon and aryl tethered trialkylsilyl esters to carboxylic acids, whereas primary sp³-carbon tethered trialkylsilyl esters were further converted into their methyl esters under CBr₄/MeOH reaction conditions. The highly chemoselective deprotections can be modulated and achieved by the introduced protecting trialkylsilyl groups and the used alcohols such as MeOH and EtOH under this photochemically-induced reaction conditions.     

Synthesis and Structure of MnCl2(HDpyF) (HDpyF = N,N′‐di(2‐pyridyl)formamidine): New Crystallographic Disorder and Bonding Mode of the HDpyF Ligand

The reaction of N,N′‐di(2‐pyridyl)formamidine (HDpyF) with MnCl₂‐4H₂O afforded the complex MnCl₂(HDpyF), which was characterized by X‐ray crystallography. The HDpyF ligand chelates to the Mn(II) center through the first and the third nitrogen atoms to form a six‐membered ring, leaving the second and the fourth nitrogen atoms uncoordinated. The HDpyF ligand is crystallographically disordered such that two different molecules can be solved. The neutral HDpyF ligand adopts the new s‐cis‐syn‐s‐trans conformation.     

Synthesis of poly(<Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>-methylolacrylamide)/polymethylacrylamide hybrids via frontal free-radical polymerization

In this study, poly(N-methylolacrylamide)/polymethylacrylamide (PNMA/PMAA) hybrids were produced successfully by frontal free-radical polymerization at ambient pressure. In a typical run, the appropriate amounts of reactants (N-methylolacrylamide, NMA; methylacrylamide, MAA) and initiator (ammonium persulfate) were dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide at ambient temperature. Frontal polymerization (FP) was initiated by heating the wall of the tube with a soldering iron, and the resultant hot fronts were allowed to self-propagate throughout the reaction vessel. Once initiated, no further energy was required for polymerization to occur. The dependences of the front velocity and front temperature on the initiator concentration, reactant dilution, and NMA/MAA components were thoroughly investigated. The front temperatures were between 69 and 116 °C, depending on the persulfate concentration. We have also investigated the FP of PNMA/PMAA hybrids with N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone as solvent. Results show that FP can be exploited as a means for the preparation of PNMA/PMAA hybrids with the potential advantage of higher throughput compared to the traditional mode.     

Differential pulse voltammetric determination of arsenic(III,V) and antimony (III,V) in glasses

Summary Analytical methods based on differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) have been described for the determination of total As, As(III), As(V), total Sb and Sb(III) as trace to minor constituents in complex glasses. For total As, the sample is decomposed with HF-H₂SO₄-KMnO₄. The As(V) is chemically reduced to As (III) by hypophosphite and a DPV scan is carried out at the dropping mercury electrode from –0.2 to –0.7 Vvs. SCE (E _p –0.41V). As(V) is determined by decomposing the sample in HF-H₂SO₄ and volatilizing the As(III) as AsF₃. The chemical reduction of As(V) and the DPV scan are then applied. If the glass can be decomposed with cold HF, the As(III) present in the glass can be determined by applying the DPV scan after cold sample-dissolution. For Sb(III), the sample is decomposed with HF-H₂SO₄, diluted, and adjusted to 1M in HCl. A DPV scan is conducted from –0.03 to –0.5 V (E _p –0.15 V). Sb(V) is not reduced in the 1M HCl supporting electrolyte. Total Sb is determined by using an aliquot of the sample solution adjusted to 6M in HCl. The DPV sweep is carried out from –0.5 to –0.1 V [E _p for Sb(V) and Sb(III) is –0.30 V]. The methods have been applied to a wide range of glass compositions and the results compared with values obtained by spectrophotometry and coulometric titration.

Bestimmung von Arsen(III, V) und Antimon(III, V) in Gläsern mit Hilfe der Differential-Puls-Voltammetrie

Zusammenfassung Analytische Methoden auf der Grundlage der Differential-Puls-Voltammetrie (DPV) für die Bestimmung des gesamten Arsens, As(III), As(V), des gesamten Antimons und Sb(III) als Spuren in komplexen Gläsern wurden beschrieben. Zwecks Bestimmung des Gesamt-As wird die Probe mit Flußsäure +Schwefelsäure + Permanganat aufgeschlossen. As(V) wird mit Hypophosphit reduziert und die DPV wird an einer Quecksilber-Tropfelektrode zwischen –0,2 und –0,7V gegen eine ges. Kalomelelektrode (E _p =–0,41V) durchgeführt. Zur Bestimmung von As(V) wird die Probe mit HF-H₂SO₄ unter Verflüchtigung des As(III) als AsF₃ aufgeschlossen. Dann erfolgt die Reduktion des As(V) und die DPV. Wenn sich das Glas mit kalter HF lösen läßt, wird anwesendes As(III) mittels DPV in dieser Lösung bestimmt. Zur Bestimmung des Sb(III) wird die Probe mit HF-H₂SO₄ zersetzt, verdünnt und bis zur 1-Molarität mit HCl versetzt. Dann wird mit DPV zwischen –0,03 und –0,5V gemessen (E _p =–0,15V). Sb(V) wird in 1M salzsaurer Lösung nicht reduziert. Das Gesamt-Sb wird in einem Aliquot der Probelösung bestimmt, das dazu mit HCl bis zur 6fachen Molarität versetzt wird. Der DPV-Bereich wird von –0,5 bis –0,1 V ausgenützt (E _p f:ur Sb(V) und Sb(III) ist –0,30 V). Das Verfahren wurde für Gläser verschiedenster Zusammensetzung angewendet. Die Ergebnisse wurden mit den Resultaten der Spektrophotometrie und der coulometrischen Titration verglichen.
