Influence of heme periphery on the electronic structure and Mössbauer parameters of hemoglobin

For the five-coordinated complexes of ferroprotoporphynynn with imidazole, a quantum-chemical analysis of the electronic structure and Mossbauer spectral parameters has been canied out. Peripheral substituents (CH3, Cf13, C₂H₄COOH) were introduced into the porphynin macrocycle to model the real chemical structure of protopo'phynynn in the heme group of desoxyhemoglobin. The calculations have shown that near the occupation border in the complaes there are MO which are due to the -systems of the CH= CM₂ and CH₂CH₂COOH substituents. The orientalion of the vinyl fragments has a considerable effect on the populations of the Fe d-orbitals and the quadrupole splitting E_Q for the⁵B₁ and⁵B₂ terns.Institute of Biophysics, Ministry of Health, Russian Federation.

Co-cation Conduction in Solid Solutions (K1 – xRbx)4P2O7–M2P2O7(M = Ca,Sr, Cd,Ba): Transport Numbers and Partial Ionic Conductivities

Transport numbers for potassium and rubidium cations in solid electrolytes (K_{1 – x} Rb _x )_3.8M_0.1P₂O₇(M = Ca, Cd, Ba) are measured, and the co-cation nature of the electrolytes" conduction is confirmed. The concentration dependences of transport numbers are used to draw a conclusion about the ratio between mobilities of potassium and rubidium cations. The presence of an extremum in the concentration dependence of the activation energy for the rubidium-cation constituent of conduction is confirmed by the NMR method. The obtained results are explained by assuming that the polyalkaline effect is largely due to an ordering of mobile alkali cations.     

对一个大单轴磁各向异性镍(Ⅱ)配合物中的磁跃迁的直接观察

最近Ruamps和同事发现三角双锥构型的Ni（Ⅱ）配合物[Ni（Me₆tren）Cl]ClO₄（1，Me₆tren=tris（2-（dimethylamino）ethyl）amine）具有大的单轴磁各向异性（J.Am.Chem.Soc.，2013，135：3017-3026）。他们利用HF-EPR研究获得横向零场分裂（ZFS）参数E=1.56（5）cm^-1但未能确定轴向零场分裂参数D。在本工作中，我们利用0~17.5 T和5 K的变磁场远红外光谱（FIRMS）来检测自旋基态S=1中的M_S=±1和M_S=0态之间的磁跃迁。在FIRMS中直接观察到Zeeman分裂态之间的跃迁，得出轴向ZFS参数D=-110.7（3）cm^-1。我们对1的晶体结构进行了Hirshfeld表面分析，揭示了1分子中的阳离子与阴离子之间以及分子之间的相互作用。     

Influence of vanadium doping on the behavior of YBa_2Cu_3O_7-y

YBa2Cu3-xVxO7-y(x=0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5 and 0.6) superconductors have been prepared. X-ray diffraction shows that the system remains orthorhombic for all compositions studied, but for x > 0.4 V2O5 was detected as an impurity phase. Substitution of V5+ for Cu2+ occurs in the Cu(2) sites on the Cu(2)-O planes. The introduction of the high valence element, vanadium, produces the extra free-electrons. These electrons recombine with the positive carrier of the system. It makes depression of the mobility and the Hall number of YBa2Cu3-xVxO7-v and also results in a depression of TC.     

Electroconduction of Solid Solutions Na3 – 2x M x PO4(M = Cd, Pb)

In the sodium-orthophosphate-based solid solutions in Na_{3 – 2x} M _x PO₄ systems (M = Cd, Pb), the electroconduction is maximum near the upper concentration boundaries of the single-phase regions: x 0.4 for M = Cd and x 0.25 for M = Pb. The conductivity values at 300°C are 6.25 × 10^–3 and 2.5 × 10^–3 S/cm, respectively. The conduction of synthesized solid electrolytes has a co-cation nature. Their electric characteristics, inferior to those of the Na₃PO₄-based solid solutions obtained via heterovalent substitutions of another type, may be a manifestation of an effect similar to the polyalkali effect.     

Polynuclear nonfused tetrazole-, 1,3,4-oxadiazole-, and 1,2,3-triazole-containing systems

Polynuclear nonfused blocks containing 1,2,3-triazole, 1,3,4-oxadiazole, and tetrazole rings were synthesized by reaction of C-substituted tetrazoles with carboxylic acid chlorides, as well as by cycloaddition of 2-azidomethyl-1,3,4-oxadiazoles at the triple bond of acetylenic compounds.     

Infrared spectra of cyclic ethers and their derivatives

The IR spectra of six monosubstituted and of four 2,6-disubstituted 1,4-dioxanes have been studied in the 650–1800cm^–1 region. The assignment of the bands due to the vibrations of the 1,4-dioxane ring and to the deformation vibrations of the methylene groups of the ring is given. The appearance of a whole series of new absorption bands on passing from unsubstituted 1,4-dioxane to its derivatives is explained by the change in the symmetry of the molecule and the removal of the prohibition from the vibrations previously inactive in the IR spectra connected with this reduction in symmetry. It is proposed to use, in order to confirm the presence of a 1,4-dioxane ring in a molecule from the results of IR spectroscopy, not only the 1126-cm^–1 band but the whole group of bands lying in the frequency ranges 800–950, 1000–1150, and 1200–1300 cm^–1.For part I, see [3].     

Variation of physicochemical properties in the aggregates of structual isomers

The regions of variation of density, enthalpy of formation, and detonation velocity of all of the formally possible structual isomers were determined for several molecular formulas of C,H,N,O-containing explosives. The histograms of the distribution of the structual isomers over these parameters were constructed.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.
