Analysis of alkaloids in Macleaya cordata (Willd.) R. Br. using high-performance liquid chromatography with diode array detection and electrospray ionization mass spectrometry

A method for the analysis of alkaloids in Macleaya cordata (Willd.) R. Br. using high-performance liquid chromatography with diode array detection and electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (HPLC-DAD-ESI/MS) was developed. Using protopine (PRO), allocryptopine (ALL), sanguinarine (SA), and chelerythrine (CHE) as the model components, different columns for the separation and different mobile phases for the signal intensities of alkaloids in ESI/MS were investigated, respectively. The results showed that good separation and high signal intensities can be obtained on a high carbon loading (17%) reversed-phase C(18) column with 30 mM formic acid in mobile phase for the analysis of alkaloids. Under the optimal separation condition and UV detection (284 nm), linearity of the six alkaloids was obtained over concentration range from 0.05 to 100.00 microg/ml. The limit of detection (LOD) was 1.62, 1.87, 1.79, 1.76, 1.10, and 0.94 ng/ml for SA, CHE, PRO, ALL, dihydrosanguinarine (DHSA), and dihydrochelerythrine (DHCHE), respectively. The LODs with ESI/MS detection were lower three orders of magnitude than those obtained with UV detection. The proposed method could be used to control quality of the raw materials of the herb more comprehensively.     

Construction of aromatic [5,5] spiroketals via hypoiodite-catalyzed etherification combined in relay cascades

An approach is developed for the synthesis of bisbenzannelated spiro[5,5]ketals via a catalytic relay reaction cascade involving a new cyclo-etherification, which is prompted by fluoride and catalyzed by the hypoiodite species generated in situ from irradiative aerobic oxidation of an iodide ion formed in the former step of the reaction cascade.     

BEM for simulation of a 2D elastic body with randomly distributed circular inclusions

Based on our 2D BEM software THBEM2 which can be applied to the simulation of an elastic body with randomly distributed identical circular holes, a scheme of BEM for the simulation of elastic bodies with randomly distributed circular inclusions is proposed. The numerical examples given show that the boundary element method is more accurate and more effective than the finite element method for such a problem. The scheme presented can also be successfully used to estimate the effective elastic properties of composite materials.

Saprophytic Bacillus Accelerates the Release of Effective Components in Agarwood by Degrading Cellulose

The value of Agarwood increases with time due to the gradual release of its major components, but the mechanism behind this remains unclear. Herein we reveal that the potential driving force of this process is the degradation of cellulose in Agarwood by its saprophytic Bacillus subtilis. We selected 10-year-old Agarwood from different places and then isolated the saprophytic bacteria. We confirmed these bacteria from different sources are all Bacillus and confirmed they can degrade cellulose, and the highest cellulase activity reached 0.22 U/mL. By co-cultivation of the bacterium and Agarwood powder, we found that three of the strains could release the effective components of Agarwood, while they had little effect in increasing the same components in living Aquilaria sinensis. Finally, we demonstrated that these saprophytic Bacillus subtilis have similar effects on Zanthoxylum bungeanum Maxim and Dalbergiaod orifera T. Chen, but not on Illicium verum Hook. f, Cinnamomum cassia Presl and Phellodendron chinense Schneid. In conclusion, our experiment revealed that the saprophytic Bacillus release the effective components of Agarwood by degrading cellulose, and we provide a promising way to accelerate this process by using this bacterial agent.

NO在稀有金属钇表面的吸附行为

以往的理论在预测六方结构(HCP)金属的表面能时,计算值与实验值存在较大误差.鉴于此,本文首先用一种较为合理的方法精准地预测了稀有金属钇(Y)(0001)面的表面能,计算值(1.141 J/M²)与实验值(1.125 J/M²)吻合的很好.随后,系统研究了NO小分子在Y(0001)面不同位置(空位、桥位和端位)的吸附行为.结果表明:空位(H1)表现出了良好的吸附能力,吸附能超过了5eV,同时N-O键长伸长量超过了24%,此时,NO分子几乎平行地吸附于Y(0001)表面.所有的吸附位置的N-O分子伸长量范围为0.2?-0.42?.这种伸长量明显超过了NO在其它金属表面时的计算结果.     

反铁磁链中Dzyaloshinskii–Moriya机制驱动矢量自旋手征束缚态的研究

Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya(DM)相互作用驱动的矢量自旋手征态,能和声子发生耦合,具备非常丰富的物理现象.本论文以一维反铁磁链中自旋手征-声子耦合模型为基础,研究不同声子环境下,耦合强度对自旋手征动力学演化过程的影响规律.结果表明,对自旋S=1/2的系统,在不同的声子浴(sub-Ohmic(0 1))中,均会在非相干到相干自旋涨落过程中产生无能隙一级相变,其来源是自旋手征束缚态的形成.相变发生的临界自旋-声子耦合强度正比于自旋涨落大小,反比于系统德拜频率.当自旋-声子耦合强度超过其临界值时,自旋手征束缚态的产生将极大地抑制非相干自旋涨落.
