席夫碱稀土配合物与DNA的作用方式

以糠醛和对氨基苯磺酸反应合成席夫碱配体,与稀土离子配位制得相应的稀土配合物,并运用光谱法研究配合物与DNA之间的作用机制,为新型抗癌药物的设计开发提供依据。采用元素分析、红外和紫外光谱对配合物性质进行表征测试,确定其化学组成为REL(OH),RE为La~(3+)、Nd~(3+)、Eu~(3+),L为去质子形式的希夫碱配体。此外,运用光谱法和循环伏安法研究了REL(OH)配合物与鲱鱼精DNA之间的作用方式。配合物在加入DNA后,特征吸收峰强度发生明显的减色效应,但峰位红移不明显。配合物能够猝灭中性红-DNA体系的荧光。Fe(CN)_6~(3-)/~(4-)的氧化还原峰电流在配合物加入后减小,式量电位有正移趋势,表明配合物、Fe(CN)_6~(3-)/~(4-)与DNA的作用存在竞争。研究结果表明:这3种席夫碱稀土配合物与鲱鱼精DNA的作用均属于嵌插,且含有不同稀土离子的配合物与DNA的作用强弱不同,作用大小次序为Eu配合物La配合物Nd配合物席夫碱,这可能与DNA和配合物中的稀土离子所发生的作用有关。     

Analysis of robustness of urban bus network

In this paper,the invulnerability and cascade failures are discussed for the urban bus network.Firstly,three static models(bus stop network,bus transfer network,and bus line network) are used to analyse the structure and invulnerability of urban bus network in order to understand the features of bus network comprehensively.Secondly,a new way is proposed to study the invulnerability of urban bus network by modelling two layered networks,i.e.,the bus stop-line network and the bus line-transfer network and then the interactions between different models are analysed.Finally,by modelling a new layered network which can reflect the dynamic passenger flows,the cascade failures are discussed.Then a new load redistribution method is proposed to study the robustness of dynamic traffic.In this paper,the bus network of Shenyang City which is one of the biggest cities in China,is taken as a simulation example.In addition,some suggestions are given to improve the urban bus network and provide emergency strategies when traffic congestion occurs according to the numerical simulation results.     

A three-component model on the structure of colloidal solution with size-asymmetric electrolytes

ABSTRACT

A three-component model on the structure of colloidal solution with size asymmetric electrolytes is attempted here using density functional theory and Monte Carlo simulation. The solvent is represented as an individual component along with that as a dielectric continuum. The theory uses a weighted density approximation for the hard-sphere contribution to the free energy, whereas the ionic contribution is evaluated through a perturbation expansion around the bulk density. The theory is found to reproduce the simulation data quite well for a wide range of parametric conditions. The present study reflects the importance of the presence of the solvent in determining the structural behaviour of spherical double layers.     

Indirect carbon–carbon spin–spin couplings across one,two and three bonds in pyridine and diazine systems: experiment and theory

An excellent linear correlation is found between a large body of experimental spin–spin carbon–carbon couplings, J(CC), across one, two and three bonds in pyridine and diazine ring systems and the corresponding B3PW91/6‐311++G(d,p)//B3PW91/6‐311++G(d,p) computations. The correlation does not differ significantly from the simplest relationship possible, J(CC)_exp. = J(CC)_calcd., within a small and random spread of about 1 Hz. There are 276 experimental values considered, and 124 out of these are new and come from the present work. The aromatic carbon–carbon couplings vary from ?7.6 through +78.5 Hz. It is shown that the correlation provides a reliable tool for predictions of the signs of aromatic J(CC)'s even if the magnitudes of the latter are of the order of 1 Hz. It is demonstrated, for the first time, that the relatively weak ² J(CC) couplings, in the heteroaromatic systems studied, can bear either sign and span a considerable range of about 11 Hz. The character of the correlation indicates that rovibronic effects on aromatic J(CC)'s and those of nuclear motions on aromatic J(CC)'s are practically negligible. All of this is in a perfect agreement with our recent extensive studies on aromatic J(CC)'s in analogous benzene ring system. Substituent effects on the aromatic J(CC)'s turn out to be significant not only for ¹J(CC)'s but also for most of ³J(CC)'s and ² J(CC)'s, and the computation neatly reciprocates these trends.

Locally Resolving Measurements of PSD,Particle Concentration and Particle Velocity by Means of TFS with Dual Beams

Transmission fluctuation spectrometry with spatial correlation (TFS‐SC) is based on transmitting two beams of radiation through a flowing suspension, whereby the distance of the beam centers is varied. Thus, the spatial correlation of the transmission fluctuations of the two beams is determined as a function of the beam distance. By numerical modeling, the transition functions of the correlation are found as a function of beam distance, beam diameters, particle diameter and beam intersection angle. Experimentally determined spatial correlation spectra can be inverted to obtain the particle concentration and particle size distribution by using the theoretical transition functions for mono‐sized particles. In addition, time correlations can be used to extract information on particle velocity. Some experimental results obtained by TFS‐SC are presented and discussed. This method appears promising for application in the local resolving of measurements of PSD, particle concentration and particle velocity in two‐phase flows, both in the laboratory and in process control.     

On the Einstein model for EXAFS parallel and perpendicular mean‐square relative displacements

The correlated Einstein model for EXAFS parallel and perpendicular mean‐square relative displacements (MSRDs) is discussed. By means of dynamical simulations on different crystalline structures, the error owing to the Einstein‐fit model on the EXAFS MSRDs is estimated as a function of the standard deviation of the density of vibrational states. This error should be taken into account to improve the accuracy of the MSRDs.     

Obtaining local reciprocal lattice vectors from finite‐element analysis

Finite‐element analysis is frequently used by engineers at synchrotron beamlines to calculate the elastic deformation of a single crystal undergoing mechanical bending or thermal load. ANSYS^® Workbench? software is widely used for such simulations. However, although ANSYS^® Workbench? software provides useful information on the displacements, strains and stresses within the crystal, it does not yield the local reciprocal lattice vectors that would be required for X‐ray diffraction calculations. To bridge this gap, a method based on the shape functions and interpolation procedures of the software itself has been developed. An application to the double‐crystal bent Laue monochromator being designed for the I12 (JEEP) wiggler beamline at the Diamond Light Source is presented.     

Crystal and molecular structure of 2‐aminopyridinium‐ 4‐hydroxybenzenosulfonate—IR and Raman spectra,DFT calculations and physicochemical properties

A new organic–organic salt, 2‐aminopyridinium‐4‐hydroxybenzenosulfonate, has been synthesised and characterised by means of FT‐IR and FT‐Raman spectroscopies, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and single crystal X‐ray crystallography. Its vibrational spectra have been discussed on the basis of quantum chemical density functional theory (DFT) calculations using the B3LYP/6‐31G(d,p) approach. The role of the intermolecular interactions in this crystal is analysed. The N HċċċO interactions between the hydrogen atoms of the pyridinium cation and oxygen atoms of hydroxybenzenosulfonate anion built the supramolecular arrangement in three‐dimensional space.

Polarized Raman scattering and lattice eigenmodes of antiferromagnetic NdFeO3

The first‐ and second‐order Raman‐active phonons in the orthorhombic Pbnm NdFeO₃ single crystals were studied by means of polarized Raman scattering and lattice dynamics computations (LDC). The zone‐center phonons of A_g symmetry were distinguished from the B_1g eigenmodes by performing polarized Raman scattering experiments using two parallel polarization configurations, X′(ZZ)X′ and Z(X′X′)Z. With the help of LDC, we were able to assign most of the observed Raman‐active modes, including phonons of B_2g and B_3g symmetry. The LDC results indicated that among the 16 force constants employed, the one corresponding to the stretching vibration between the central Fe cation and the axial oxygen atom in a FeO₆ octahedron unit had the largest value. This suggests that the B‐site Fe cation is more tightly bound to the axial O1 ion than the other two equatorial O2 ions. It was further shown that at higher wavenumbers, the displacement of oxygen atoms contributed dominantly to the zone‐center vibrations. Copyright © 2008 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
