Isolation and Structure Elucidation of Nortriterpenoids from Schisandra rubriflora

Seven new highly oxygenated nortriterpenoids, rubriflorins D–J ( 1 – 7 ), were isolated from the leaves and stems of Schisandra rubriflora, and their structures were elucidated on the basis of extensive analysis of spectroscopic data. These new compounds feature the opening of ring A compared with related known nortriterpenoids isolated from the genus Schisandra and showed weak activity against HIV‐1.     

Aggregation Properties of an Amphiphilic Methanofullerene Derivative in THFH_2O Solvent Mixtures

Water-soluble fullerenes not only have a number of important applications in biological chemistry1, but also form ordered aggregate structures that can be utilized in materials science2. There are reports that some water-soluble fullerene derivatives can form ordered structures in water, such as vesicle, nanorod and nanoparticle2-5. However, relatively few reports on the aggregation process have been reported. Knowledge of factors that affect the cluster formation in solution is of consider…     

Synthesis and nuclear magnetic resonance analysis of starch‐g‐poly(1,4‐dioxan‐2‐one) copolymers

A new biodegradable starch graft copolymer, starch‐g‐poly(1,4‐dioxan‐2‐one), was synthesized through the ring‐opening graft polymerization of 1,4‐dioxan‐2‐one onto a starch backbone. The grafting reactions were conducted with various 1,4‐dioxan‐2‐one/starch feed ratios to obtain starch‐g‐poly(1,4‐dioxan‐2‐one) copolymers with various poly(1,4‐dioxan‐2‐one) graft structures. The microstructure of starch‐g‐poly(1,4‐dioxan‐2‐one) was characterized in detail with one‐ and two‐dimensional NMR spectroscopy. The effect of the feed composition on the resulting microstructure of starch‐g‐poly(1,4‐dioxan‐2‐one) was investigated. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

In situ transmission electron microscopy study of the nucleation and grain growth of Ge2Sb2Te5 thin films

The nucleation and grain growth of the Ge₂Sb₂Te₅ (GST) thin films were studied using high voltage electron microscope operated at 1250 kV. As a result, we have found that 2 nm-sized nucleus forms as a cluster which atoms are arranged regularly at the stage of nucleation prior to the formation of grains having crystal structure. The high-resolution transmission electron microscopy study and fast-Fourier transformations revealed that coexistence of face-centered-cubic (FCC) and hexagonal structure occurs, and formation of twin defect is found in the hexagonal structure during the grain growth as the annealing temperature is increased. GST grain having the hexagonal structure grow from the surface, and the growth proceeded perpendicular to the [0 0 0 1], namely the path parallel to the (0 0 0 1) plane. Consequently, grain growth to a large-scale result in a lengthened shape.

Epoxy resin containing polyphenylsilsesquioxane: Preparation,morphology, and thermomechanical properties

Polyphenylsilsesquioxane (PPSQ) was incorporated into an epoxy resin to prepare organic–inorganic composites, and two strategies were adopted to afford composites with different morphologies. Phase separation induced by polymerization occurred in the physical blending system. However, nanostructured composites were obtained when a catalytic amount of aluminum triacetylacetonate was added to mediate the reaction between PPSQ and diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A (DGEBA). The intercomponent reaction significantly suppressed the phase separation on the micrometer scale. Organic–inorganic composites with different morphologies displayed quite different thermomechanical properties. Both differential scanning calorimetry and dynamic mechanical analysis showed that the nanostructured composites possessed higher glass‐transition temperatures than the phase‐separated composites with the same loading of PPSQ, although the intercomponent reaction between PPSQ and DGEBA reduced the crosslinking density of the epoxy matrix. This result was ascribed to the presence of nanosized PPSQ domains in the nanostructured composites, which acted as physical crosslinking sites and thus reinforced the epoxy networks. The nanoreinforcement of the PPSQ domains afforded the enhanced dynamic storage modulus for the nanostructured composites in comparison with the phase‐separated composites with a PPSQ concentration less than 15 wt %. In terms of thermogravimetric analysis, the organic–inorganic composites displayed improved thermal stability and flame retardancy. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Reinforcement effect of MAA on nano‐CaCo3‐filled EPDM vulcanizates and possible mechanism

Methacrylic acid (MAA) was used as in situ surface modifier to improve the interface interaction between nano‐CaCO₃ particle and ethylene–propylene–diene monomer (EPDM) matrix, and hence the mechanical properties of nano‐CaCO₃‐filled EPDM vulcanizates. The results showed that the incorporation of MAA improved the filler–matrix interaction, which was proved by Fourier transformation infrared spectrometer (FTIR), Kraus equation, crosslink density determination, and scanning electron microscope (SEM). The formation of carboxylate and the participation of MAA in the crosslinking of EPDM indicated the strong filler–matrix interaction from the aspect of chemical reaction. The results of Kraus equation showed that the presence of MAA enhanced the reinforcement extent of nano‐CaCO₃ on EPDM vulcanizates. Crosslink density determination proved the formation of the ionic crosslinks in EPDM vulcanizates with the existence of MAA. The filler particles on tensile fracture were embedded in the matrix and could not be observed obviously, indicating that a strong interfacial interaction between the filler and the matrix had been achieved with the incorporation of MAA. Meanwhile, the presence of MAA remarkably increased the modulus and tensile strength of the vulcanizates, without negative effect on the high elongation at break. Furthermore, the ionic bond was thought to be formed only on filler surface because of the absolute deficiency of MAA, which resulted in the possible structure where filler particles were considered as crosslink points. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
