Fluorescence-based nitric oxide detection by ruthenium porphyrin fluorophore complexes

The ruthenium(II) porphyrin fluorophore complexes [Ru(TPP)(CO)(Ds-R)] (TPP = tetraphenylporphinato dianion; Ds = dansyl; R = imidazole (im), 1, or thiomorpholine (tm), 2) were synthesized and investigated for their ability to detect nitric oxide (NO) based on fluorescence. The X-ray crystal structures of 1 and 2 were determined. The Ds-im or Ds-tm ligand coordinates to an axial site of the ruthenium(II) center through a nitrogen or sulfur atom, respectively. Both exhibit quenched fluorescence when excited at 368 or 345 nm. Displacement of the metal-coordinated fluorophore by NO restores fluorescence within minutes. These observations demonstrate fluorescence-based NO detection using ruthenium porphyrin fluorophore conjugates.     

Background-free,fast protein staining in sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel using counterion dyes,zincon and ethyl violet

A background-free, fast protein staining method in polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis using an acidic dye, zincon (ZC) and a basic dye, ethyl violet (EV) is described. It is based on the counterion dye staining technique that employs two oppositely charged dyes to form an ion-pair complex in staining solution. The selective binding of free dye molecules to proteins in acidic solution produces bluish violet-colored bands. It is a rapid and end-point staining procedure, involving only fixing and staining steps that are completed in 1-1.5 h. The detection limit of this method is 8-15 ng of protein that is comparable to the sensitivity of the colloidal Coomassie Brilliant Blue G (CBBG) stain. Due to its sensitivity and speed, this stain may be more practical than any other dye-based stains for routine laboratory purposes.     

聚N—异丙基丙烯酰胺溶液的温度依赖关系

用自由基聚合法合成了聚Ｎ－异丙基丙烯酰胺（ＰＮＩＰＡＡＭ）样品，用乌氏粘度计考查了该聚合物的四氢呋喃（ＴＨＦ）溶液和水溶液的粘度与温度的依赖关系。发现ＰＮＩＰＡＡＭ－ＴＨＦ体系的特性粘数随温度升高而增大，ＰＮＩＰＡＡＭ－Ｈ２Ｏ体系的特性粘数－温度曲线表现出较为复杂的变化规律。并用实验确定的特性粘数对合成样品的分子量进行了表征Ｍｎ＝８．４４×１０＾５ｇ·ｍｏｌ＾－１。     

烟酸对酸性硫酸盐体系铜电沉积的影响

对溶液A: 0.8 mol•L－1硫酸铜,0.6 mol•L－1硫酸,5.0×10－5 mol•L－1氯离子,1.0×10－4 mol•L－1聚乙二醇的溶液,溶液B:在溶液A中加入2.0×10－2 mol•L－1烟酸,pH为0.5,运用循环伏安和计时安培法研究玻碳电极上铜的电沉积行为.结果表明,铜的电沉积过程经历了晶核形成过程,其电结晶按瞬时成核和三维生长方式进行.烟酸的加入对铜的电沉积具有阻化作用,但不改变铜的电结晶机理.沉积层的X射线衍射表明Cu为面心立方结构,在烟酸存在下沉积层出现(220)高择优取向,这可能是烟酸在Cu(220)晶面上发生强烈吸附作用的结果.     

CsxH3-xPW12O40的孔结构

Ｎ２静态吸附容量法的测定结果表明，磷钨酸铯盐（ＣｓｘＨ３－ｘＰＷ１２Ｏ４０）的孔窝和孔分布与ｘ值的大小相关。ｘ〈１．５的ＣｓｘＨ３－ｘＰＷ１２Ｏ４０孔容相近，孔分布近似；当ｘ〉１．５时，ＣｓｘＨ３－ｘＰＷ１２Ｏ４０的孔主要是孔径小于１０ｎｍ的中孔和微孔，平均孔径及孔容随ｘ的增加而增大。ＳＥＭ和ＴＥＭ的观测结果表明，ＣｓｘＨ３－ｘＰＷ１２Ｏ４０的孔是微细粒子堆积留下的空隙孔，可能不存在晶内孔。

The effect of Pt addition to Pd catalysts is studied by XPS analysis. This revised version was published online in August 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

A DFT study on the double bond migration of butene catalyzed by ionic pair of 1-ethyl-3-methyl-imidazolium fluoride

The double bond migration of butene catalyzed by 1-ethyl-3-methyl-imidazolium fluoride (EmimF) has been studied using quantum chemical method. The geometries of reactant, transition state and product for the isomerization have been optimized by density functional theory (DFT) at the B3PW91/6-31G(d,p), 6-311++G(d,p) and aug-cc-PVDZ levels. The computed results show that the 4-H atom on imidazole ring of EmimF has a good catalytic activity to the double bond migration of butene and the catalytic reaction of 1-butene to 2-butene is a synergetic and elementary process. The apparent activation energy of isomerization is about 197 kJ/mol.     

Mechanism of the hydrolysis of α-(<Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-nitrophenyl)cinnamonitrile derivatives

The rate constant hydrolysis of α-(p-nitrophenyl)cinnamonitrile(NCPN) and its derivatives have been determined at various pH, and the rate equation which can be applied over a wide pH range is obtained. On the basis of the rate equation, hydrolysis product, general base, and substituent effects, a plausible mechanism of hydrolysis has been proposed: At pH < 4.0, the hydrolysis was initiated by the addition of water to β-carbon of the carbon-carbon double bond. At pH > 8.5, the addition of hydroxide ion to the double bond was rate controlling. In the range of pH 4.0–8.5, these two reactions occurred competitively.
