Quadrupole mass filters with octopole fields

The performance of quadrupole mass filters with added octopole fields in the range 2.0-4.0% has been investigated. The added fields are much greater than those normally added to conventional rod sets by mechanical tolerances or construction errors. Quadrupole rod sets with added octopole fields were constructed with round rods by making one pair of rods greater in diameter than the other pair. For positive ions, resolution at half height of only about 200 is possible if the negative direct current (dc) output of the quadrupole power supply is connected to the smaller rods. If the positive dc output of the quadrupole power supply is connected to the smaller rods, the resolution improves dramatically; a resolution at half height of 5800 has been observed with a rod set with 2.6% added octopole field. For negative ions the best resolution is obtained with the polarity of the dc reversed, i.e. with the negative dc applied to the smaller rods. These findings are unexpected in view of the literature that argues that to obtain high mass resolution with quadrupole mass filters, higher order multipoles must be kept as small as possible. Numerical simulations of peak shapes agree qualitatively with experiments. Simulation of the boundaries of the first stability region for positive ions shows that when the positive dc is applied to the smaller rods, the addition of a 2.0% octopole field causes the boundaries to shift slightly but the boundaries are well defined, and the tip of the stability region remains sharp. When the positive dc is applied to the larger rods, the boundaries of the stability region move out and become diffuse. For instruments that require a rod set that can be used both as a linear trap and a mass filter, these rod sets may offer improved trap performance while still being capable of providing conventional mass analysis.     

The Enhancement of Efficiency of High-order Harmonic in Intense Laser Field Based on Asymptotic Boundary Conditions and Symplectic Algorithm

Asymptotic boundary condition (ABC) of laser-atom interaction presented recently is applied to transform the initial value problem of the time-dependent Schrödinger equation (TDSE) in infinite space into the initial and boundary value problem in the finite space, and then the TDSE is discretized into linear canonical equations by substituting the symmetry difference quotient for the 2-order partial derivative. The canonical equation is solved by symplectic algorithm. The ground state and the equal weight coherent superposition of the ground state and the first excited state have been taken as the initial conditions, respectively, while we calculate the population of bound states, the evolution of average distance and the high-order harmonic generation (HHG). The conversion efficiency of HHG can be enhanced by initial coherent superposition state and moderate laser intensities     

Derivatization procedures for the detection of estrogenic chemicals by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry

This work evaluated derivatization procedures for detecting both natural and synthetic estrogenic chemicals by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS). Different silylating agents, mainly trimethylsilylating (TMS) agents, were compared, and the roles of various content of trimethylchlorosilane (TMCS, as a stimulator) were investigated. The difference in the abundances of the derivatives was caused by the steric hindrance of multiple hydroxyl groups and ethynyl groups in the structures of estrogenic chemicals. The use of TMCS produces an increase in the derivatization yield, especially for the compounds with multiple hydroxyl groups (i.e., 17beta-estradiol (E(2)) and estriol (E(3))). Mass spectra of O-TMS derivatives and tentative fragmentation profiles are proposed. Molecular ions were the base peaks for all the derivatives, and were used as the quantitation ions to obtain maximum detection sensitivity and specificity. Sample enrichment was achieved by Oasis HLB solid-phase extraction cartridges. The quantitation limits of these compounds ranged from 5 to 10 ng/L in 1000-mL water samples. Recovery of the estrogenic chemicals in spiked various water samples ranged from 78 to 102% while relative standard deviation (RSD) ranged from 1 to 15%.     

The formation of a compact polymer film on a copper electrode from benzimidazole solution

The effects of the pretreatment of copper in benzimidazole solutions on the anodic reactions have been observed. The structures of the chemisorbed benzimidazole on copper were studied by using the infrared reflection-absorption technique and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. It was found that a compact film of benzimidazolato copper(I) was formed on the copper surface when copper was immersed in a stirred benzimidazole solution and cyclic voltammetry applied. This compact polymer film inhibited anodic oxidation effectively.     

Energy transfer as a function of collision energy. I Collision partners: Hydrogen halides + inert gases,hydrogen halides,H2S and propane

Infrared emission has been recorded from a heated seeded supersonic primary beam of HCl or HF (1) prior to collision with a target beam, and (2) subsequent to that collision. Mean collision energy and collision partner were varied systematically. After correction for elastic scattering, the net population change due to inelastic scattering in a translation—rotation (T ? R) energy-transfer encounter was obtained for specific J states ranging from J = 0–16 of vibrational level υ = 1 of the primary-beam molecule. The broad picture is that a net transfer into low-J states out of higher-J states takes place at low collision energies, and the converse at high collision energies. These observations are interpreted in terms of the “exponential model” for the relative cross sections of T ? R inelastic collisions, S^R (J_i → J_f), proposed earlier [J.C. Polanyi and K.B. Woodall, J. Chem. Phys. 56 (1972) 1563], modified here to satisfy microscopic reversibility. The constant C in the model, which governs the exponential decrease in S^R with increasing energy difference ΔE_J between J_f and J_i, can be derived, as a function of collision energy T, from the present experimental data; C decreases as T increases, i.e. larger ΔJ become more probable. In order to check the validity of the model, it was compared with 3D trajectory results; according to this criterion it was found to give a very good representation of S^R(J_i → J_f) with a single value for C, within a limited range of J_i. The collision partners HCl + HF exhibit anomalously efficient rotational deactivation; evidence is presented which indicates that at low collision energies this is due to resonant R → R transfer. Very efficient deactivation of HCl by HCl, at low collision energy, is likely to be due to V — V transfer.     

Synthesis, crystal structure and magnetic property of the novel dinuclear nickel(II) complex with 4-(p-methoxyphenyl)-3,5-bis(pyridine-2-yl)-1,2,4-triazole

A novel dinuclear nickel(II) complex, [Ni₂(MOBPT)₂Cl₂(H₂O)₂]Cl₂ · 7H₂O (MOBPT = 4-(p-methoxyphenyl) −3,5-bis(pyridine-2-yl)-1,2,4-triazole), has been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR and single crystal X-ray diffraction methods. The crystal structure determination shows that the dinuclear Ni₂N₈ unit is almost planer in which each Ni^II ion is coordinated by four nitrogen atoms from MOBPT equatorially and a water molecule and a chloride ion axially in a distorted octahedral geometry. Magnetic measurements reveal a relatively weak antiferromagnetic exchange in the complex.     

A small molecule with osteogenesis-inducing activity in multipotent mesenchymal progenitor cells

Purmorphamine, which is a 2,6,9-trisubstituted purine compound, was discovered through cell-based high-throughput screening from a heterocycle combinatorial library. It differentiates multipotent mesenchymal progenitor cells into an osteoblast lineage. It will serve as a unique chemical tool to study the molecular mechanisms of osteogenesis of stem cells and bone development.     

Application of Liquid Crystalline NMR Solvents to a Mixture of Ketones

A series of dilute liquid crystalline solvents are used to study the effect of slight anisotropy caused by partial alignment on chemical shift and residual dipolar coupling (RDC) in small molecules. The residual dipolar couplings between protons in solutes are found to be almost independent of the local environment. It is also found that the chemical shift does not change over the concentration range observed. A linear relationship between residual dipolar coupling and liquid crystal concentration is observed at relatively low concentrations, but is severely violated at high concentrations.     

Investigation of the hydrogen bonds between formaldehyde and hydrogen halides by pseudopotential Ab Initio method

The weak hydrogen bonded systems H₂CO ?HX (X = F, Cl, Br, and I) have been studied by means of ab initio MO method with pseudopotential approximation. The stabilization energies of these hydrogen bonds are 8.96, 4.12, 3.00, and 2.21 kcal/mol, respectively. The interaction eneraction energies are farther decomposed according to Morokuma's energy decomposing scheme. It is found that the title complexes are mainly electrostatic, although the contribution of charge transfer is also significant.
