A new type of organic intercalation system using poly(muconic acid) and poly(sorbic acid) crystals as the host compounds is described. The layered polymer crystals as the host are derived from benzyl-, dodecyl-, or naphthylmethylammonium salts of (Z,Z)-muconic or (E,E)-sorbic acids by topochemical polymerization. The subsequent solid-state hydrolysis of the resulting ammonium polymer crystals provides the corresponding carboxylic acid polymer crystals. When alkylamines are reacted with poly(muconic acid) or poly(sorbic acid) crystals dispersed in methanol at room temperature for a few hours, the intercalation proceeds to give layered ammonium polymer crystals via solid-state reactions, in which the polymers maintain a layered structure throughout. The interplanar spacing value of the polymer crystals changes according to the size of the guest molecules; that is, it exactly depends on the carbon number of the alkylamines used for each reaction of poly(muconic acid) or poly(sorbic acid) crystals. The stacking structure of alkyl chains with a tilt in the intercalated alkylammonium layers exists irrespective of the chemical and crystal structures of the host polymers. The intercalation of higher alkylamines into poly(muconic acid) crystals proceeds fast and quantitatively, while the conversion is dependent on the reaction conditions such as the structure and amount of the amine and the reaction time during the intercalation with poly(sorbic acid) crystals, due to the difference in the repeating layered structures of these polymer crystals. Some functional amines are also used as the guest molecules for this organic intercalation system. 相似文献
Intravascular clot formation is an important event in a number of cardiovascular diseases. The prevention of blood coagulation has become a major target for new therapeutic agents. Factor Xa (FXa) is a trypsin-like serine protease that plays a key role in the blood coagulation cascade and represents an attractive target for anticoagulant drug development. We have investigated substituents in the central part of a lead compound (3: M55113), and discovered that compound M55551 (34: (R)-4-[(6-Chloro-2-naphthalenyl)sulfonyl]-6-oxo-1-[[1-(4-pyridinyl)-4-piperidinyl]methyl]-2-piperazinecarboxylic acid) is a potent inhibitor of FXa (IC(50)=0.006 microM), with high selectivity for FXa over trypsin and thrombin. The activity of this compound is ten times more powerful than the lead compound. 相似文献
In attempt to find novel integrin alphavbeta3 antagonists, we selected SC65811 and its guanidine analogue (1) as lead compounds. Modification of the glycine part of SC65811 led to a new series of malonamide derivatives that exhibited alphavbeta3 inhibitory activity. Among them, (R,S)-3-[3-[6-(3-benzylureido)indolin-1-yl]-3-oxopropanoylamino]-3- (pyridin-3-yl)propanoic acid (43a) showed not only potent activity with an IC50 value of 3.0 nM but also good selectivity for alphavbeta3 relative to alphaIIbbeta3, alpha5beta1, and alphavbeta5 with IC50 values of 19,000, 11,000, and 14 nM, respectively. Furthermore, optimization of 43a led to the most potent alphavbeta3 antagonist, (R,S)-3-(3-[6-[(4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazol-2-yl)amino]indolin-1-yl]-3-oxopropanoylamino)-3-(quinolin-3-yl)propanoic acid (431) with an IC50 value of 0.42 nM. The synthesis and the structure-activity relationships of these malonamide derivatives are presented. 相似文献
Decomposition of CF4 by glow-discharge and arc plasmas was studied using a tubular quartz reactor, a disk type, and a T-type quartz reactor. The effects of different metal electrodes, input voltage, and reactor type on the efficiency of CF4 total destruction (DRE) were studied. The T-shape reactor was more efficient in CF4 destruction than either the disk or tubular type due to a combined effect of glow discharge and arc plasmas. Several hydrogen and oxygen sources, such as H2O, H2, O2, and CH4, were used to convert CF4. Using H2 and O2 as the hydrogen and oxygen sources presented better DRE than using H2O. The effect of different hydrogen and oxygen sources on the conversion of CF4 followed the trend: (H2 + O2) > (CH4 + O2) > H2O. The maximum DRE of 95% was observed with 0.5% CF4 using H2 and O2. A mass spectrometer and an emission spectroscope equipped with a charge-coupled detector (CCD) were used to characterize the products and intermediates. Mass spectrometric studies indicated that the reaction products were HF, CO2, and trace amounts of NO. N2 first negative and second positive emission lines were observed in the glow discharge plasmas as well as in the arc plasmas of N2. However, C and F intermediates were observed only in arc plasmas of CF4. Reactions occurring in the glow discharge plasmas and arcs seem to follow different mechanisms. 相似文献
Direct and inverse problems of a fracture mechanics based RC beam model are solved. Solution of the direct problem that maps crack bridging stresses into crack opening displacements (COD) is straightforward, but the inverse problem is ill-posed, and better solved by the theory of inverse problems. This paper exploits the Tikhonov regularization method to solve the inverse problem, and estimates the force and location of rebar in buried concrete from CODs. Bending tests are carried out on model RC beams in the laboratory to demonstrate the applicability of the method. During the tests, a microscopic camera snaps high resolution digital pictures of cracked concrete surface. The images are analyzed by a software to measure surface CODs that are input into the inverse problem. The practical CODs inevitably include noise due to experimental error, which makes the inverse problem ill-posed, and necessitates regularization. In the current inverse analysis by the Tikhonov regularization method, bridging stress profiles, i.e. variation of the crack bridging stress along the crack length, has been figured out. Results are compared with those from other theoretical methods of analysis as well as with the readings from strain gauges. The method is a suitable non-destructive means for existing structures in cases where the section information is inadequate, or damages/repairs have altered the designed cross-section. 相似文献
We generalize the Bowen–Franks groups for topological Markov shifts to general subshifts as the Ext-groups for the associated C*-algebras. The generalized Bowen–Franks groups for subshifts are shown to be invariant under flow equivalence and, hence, invariant under topological conjugacy. They are regarded as the indices of Fredholm operators related to extensions of the associated C*-algebras so that they are described in terms of symbolic dynamical systems. In particular, the group for a sofic subshift is determined by the adjacency matrix of its left Krieger cover graph. The Bowen–Franks groups for some non sofic subshifts are calculated, proving that certain subshifts with the same topological entropy are not flow equivalent. 相似文献
This letter proposes a new iterative ISI equalization algorithm that offers low computational complexity: order L2 with channel memory length L. The proposed algorithm is an extension of Reynolds and Wang's SC/MMSE (soft canceler followed by MMSE filter) equalizer: approximations are used properly to reduce the computational complexity. It is shown that the approximations used in the proposed algorithm do not cause any serious performance degradations from the trellis-based iterative equalization algorithms 相似文献
It is demonstrated that polymeric materials can be directly converted into molecular (chiral) recognition nanofiber membranes by simultaneously applying an electrospray deposition and an alternative molecular imprinting during the membrane preparation process. Polysulfone with a degree of substitution of 0.88 was adopted as the candidate polymeric material for molecularly imprinted nanofiber membranes. Molecularly imprinted nanofiber membranes imprinted by Z‐D ‐Glu recognize the D ‐isomer in preference to the corresponding L ‐isomer and vice versa. The amino acid preferentially incorporated into the membrane is selectively permeated through the membrane by using a concentration gradient as a driving force for membrane transport.
