Two new spirostanol glycosides named agamenoside A and B, ere isolated from the fermented leaves of Agave americana.

Eu3+在Ba2TiSi2O8中的发光

The barium titano-silicate phosphors doped with Eu³⁺ were synthesized by high temperature solid state reaction. The structures of as-synthesized samples were characterized by powder XRD. The maximum peaks of emission spectra of Ba₂TiSi₂O₈ and Ba₂TiSi₂O₈∶Eu³⁺ were respectively located at 450 and 618 nm, coming from the transitions of charge-transfer bands of Ti⁴⁺-O^2- and forced electric-dipole transition ⁵D₀-⁷F₂ of Eu³⁺. The luminous mechanisms of Ba₂TiSi₂O₈ and Ba₂TiSi₂O₈∶Eu³⁺ were suggested. The effects of concentration of Eu³⁺ on the luminous performance of Ba₂TiSi₂O₈∶Eu³⁺ were also studied and the results showed that the optimum concentration of Eu³⁺ was 0.12 mol per mole of matrix.

The synthesis of novel nucleoside analog (3R)-2,3-dideoxy-3-(N-hydroxy-N-methylamino)-L-arabinofuranosyl uracil was studied. A twelve-step synthetic route, started from L-ascorbic acid, was designed, and the final product was obtained in 20.8% yield.     

DOPING LEVEL INCREASE OF POLY(3-METHYLTHIOPHENE)FILM DURING ELECTROCHEMICAL POLYMERIZATION PROCESS

The Raman spectra of poly(3-methylthiophene) (PMeT) films with different thicknesses, which have beenelectrochemically deposited on a flat stainless steel electrode surface by direct oxidation of 3-methylthiophene in borontrifluoride diethyl etherate (BFEE) at a constant applied potential of 1.38 V (versus SCE), have been investigated byexcitation with a 633-nm laser beam. The spectroscopic results demonstrated that the doping level of PMeT film wasincreasing during film growth. This finding was also confirmed by electrochemical examination. Moreover, the Raman bandsassigned to radical cations and dications in doped PMeT films were found approximately at 1420 and 1400 cm~(-1),respectively. Radical cations and dications coexist on the backbone of PMeT as conductive species and their concentrationsincrease with the increase of doping level. Successive cyclic voltammetry was proved to be an effective approach toimproving the doping level of as-grown thin compact PMeT film.     

Theoretical Studies on Reaction Mechanisms of HNCS with NH （ X^3∑）

The reaction mechanisms of HNCS with NH（X^3∑ ） were theoretically investigated. The minimum energy paths （MEP） of the reaction were calculated by using the density functional theory（DFT） at the B3LYP/6-311 ＋ ＋ G^＊＊ level. The equilibrium structural parameters, the harmonic vibrational frequencies, the total energies, and the zeropoint energies（ZPE） of all the species were calculated. The single-point energies along the MEP were further refined at the QCISD（T）/6-311 ＋ ＋ G^＊ ＊ level. It was found that the mechanisms of the HNCS ＋ NH（X^3∑） reaction involve two channels producing the HNC ＋ HNS and the N2H2 ＋ CS products. Channel 1 plays a dominant role and the HNC ＋ HNS are the main preduets. The reaction is exothermie.

INVESTIGATION OF THE ATRP OF n-BUTYL METHACRYLATE USING THE Cu（I）／N,N,N＇ N＂ N＂-PENTAMETHYLDIETHYLENETRIAMINE CATALYST SYSTEM

The polymerization of n-butyl methacrylate was investigated using the Atom Transfer Radical Polymerization technique with CuBr and CuCl/N,N,N‘,N“,N“-pentamethyldiethylenetriamine catalytic systems. Various combinations of catalyst systems and initiators were utilized in order to optimize the polymerization conditions and to obtain well-defined polymers (i.e. controlled molecular weights and low polydispersities). It has been found that the optimal initiator for this system is a chlorine-based initiator, when the catalyst used is a Cu(I) salt in conjunction with the N,N,N‘,N“,N“-pentamethyldiethylenetriamine ligand. Bromine-based initiators tend to result in large amounts of initial termination, leading to polymers with less than ideal chain end functionality, even if CuCI is used as the Cu(I) species to invoke the halogen exchange. Additionally, the effects of the polymerization temperature, copper(I) species and the initiator structure were determined.
