Effect of different electronic properties on 9-aryl-substituted BMVC derivatives for new fluorescence probes

We have previously illustrated that the electron donor of carbazole moiety and the electron acceptor of methyl pyridinium cation in 3,6-bis(1-methyl-4-vinylpyridinium) carbazole diiodide (BMVC) molecule could form an intramolecular charge-transfer state. The intramolecular twist of the vinyl group in bridging the donor and acceptor plays an important role in the BMVC fluorescence. Here, we have synthesized three 9-aryl-substituted BMVC derivatives with different electronic properties for the design of the second generation of fluorescence probes. The steady-state solvatochromic studies show no appreciable change to the charge transfer of BMVC by substituting an anisole electron-donating group at 9-position of BMVC. However, substituting a 9-nitrobenzyl electron-withdrawing group in BMVC could restrict the charge transfer in the excited state. Moreover, the increase of the fluorescence yields of 9-anisole BMVC and 9-phenyl BMVC upon interaction with DNA is even higher than that in glycerol, while the fluorescence yield of 9-nitrobenzyl BMVC upon interaction with DNA is much lower than that in glycerol. Although 9-nitrobenzyl BMVC is a good G-quadruplex stabilizer, substituting an electron-withdrawing group at 9-position of BMVC is not recommended for the design of fluorescence probes. On the other hand, co-localization between 9-phenyl BMVC and MitoTracker Red in the merged image of cells indicates that the 9-phenyl BMVC is a potential fluorescent mitochondrial probe.

Meteorological observations on Mount Everest in 2005

Mount Everest,the highest point on the Earth is often referred to as the earth's third pole as such the place is relatively inaccessible and little is known about its meteorology.In April 2005,an automatic weather station was installed at the mountain's North Col(6523 m a.s.l.).According to the observational 10-minute mean and daily records,the meteorological characteristics were analyzed. All the meteorological elements displayed obvious diurnal variations during May 1 to July 22,2005.The monthly variation of daily meteo- rological elements on Mount Everest coincided with that on Dingri,the closest routine meteorological station,with the high correlation co- efficients of 0.928,0.877,0.682,0.755,0.826 and 0.676(n=83,p<0.001)for mean temperature,minimum temperature,max- imum temperature,relative humidity,pressure and wind speed,respectively.Furthermore,the vertical mean gradient of temperature was above 0.6℃/100 m,especially for the daily maximum temperature.Most weather events on Mount Everest prominently appeared on the same day as those on Dingri,especially those from daily mean pressure,temperature and relative humidity with the cross-correlation coeffi- cients of 0.673,0.485 and 0.487(n=83,p<0.001),respectively.Some other weather events on Mount Everest lagged one-day be- hind those on Dingri.Furthermore,forecasting of the weather events on Mount Everest from pressure on Dingri was more reliable than those from the other meteorological elements.The conclusions are much important for research on meteorology and climate changes in the region.     

Scanning for sisnatures of geosraphically restricted selection based on population genomics analysis

Natural selection, as the driving force of human evolution, has direct impact on population differentiation. However, it is still unclear to what extent the genetic differentiation has been caused by natural selection. To explore this question, we performed a genome-wide scan with single nucleotide polymorphism （SNP） data from the International HapMap Project. Single locus FsTanalysis was applied to assess the frequency difference among populations in autosomes. Based on the empirical distribution of FsT, we identified 12669 SNPs correlating to population differentiation and 1853 candidate genes subjected to geographic restricted natural selection. Further interpretation of gene ontogeny revealed 121 categories of biological process with the enrichments of candidate genes. Our results suggest that natural selection may play an important role in human population differentiation. In addition, our analysis provides new clues as well as research methods for our understanding of population differentiation and natural selection.     

Linear and third-order nonlinear optical properties for the heptamethine cyanine chromophore H-aggregates thin film

The thin film of a heptamethine cyanine chromophore HC was prepared by spin-coating technique. Its surface morphology and linear optical property were characterized by atomic force microscopy (AFM) and UV-visible absorption spectroscopy. The results show that HC molecules are arranged in a well-ordered H-aggregate type. The third-order nonlinear optical properties of the spin-coating film were also measured by degenerate four-wave mixing (DFWM) measurement. Enhanced third-order nonlinear susceptibility can be attributed to molecular aggregation effects, and the corresponding mechanism was dealt with by collective electronic oscillator (CEO) approach.     

Density functional theory study on the insertion reaction mechanism of dibromocarbene with formaldehyde

The insertion reaction mechanism of CBr2 with CH3CH2O has been studied by using the B3LYP/6-311G(d) and CCSD(T)/6-311G(d) at single point. The geometries of reactions,transition state and products were completely optimized. All the transition state is verified by the vibrational analysis and the internal re-action coordinate (IRC) calculations. The results show that reaction (1) is the dominant reaction path,which proceeds via two steps: i) two reactants form an intermediate (IM1),which is an exothermal re-action of 8.62 kJ·mol?1 without energy barrier; ii) P1 is obtained via the TS1 and the H-shift,in which the energy barrier is 44.53 kJ·mol?1. The statistical thermodynamics and Eyring transition state theory with Wigner correction are used to study the thermodynamic and kinetic characters of this reaction in temperature range from 100 to 2200 K. The results show that the appropriate reaction temperature ranges from 200 to 1900 K at 1.0 atm,in which the reaction has a bigger spontaneity capability,equi-librium constant (K) and higher rate constant (k).
