Determination of Organophosphorus Pesticides in Soil by MMSPD-GC-NPD and Confirmation by GC-MS

A novel method, modified matrix solid-phase dispersion (MMSPD), has been developed for quantitative analysis of organophosphorus pesticide residues in soil. It was based on matrix solid-phase dispersion (MSPD) and continuous liquid-solid extraction (continuous LSE), using Florisil as sorbent and dichloromethane as the recycling solvent. Two soils with different texture and physicochemical properties were studied to validate the method. The effect of residence time of pesticides in soil was also studied. MMSPD was compared with MSPD and continuous LSE respectively. Determination was carried out by gas chromatography with nitrogen-phosphorus detection (GC-NPD). The method gave recoveries ranging from 72–105% with relative standard deviations (RSDs) lower than 15% for the pesticides studied. The limits of detection (LODs) ranged from 0.1 to 0.6 ng g⁻¹. Two pesticide residues have been detected in real soil samples from Fujian, China, using MMSPD. The pesticides were confirmed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) in a selected-ion monitoring (SIM) mode. Revised: 4 and 9 April 2006     

Synthesis and characterization of 3-phenylethynyl endcapped matrix resins

The synthesis of 3-phenylethynylphenol, and its applicability as a high temperature cross-linking endcap for high T_g polyarylene ethers is described. It was synthesized in high yields and purity using the palladium catalyzed coupling reaction between the protected 3-bromo or iodo phenol and phenylacetylene. The yield of the reaction was found to be highly dependent on the structure of the halide used, the reaction temperature, and the concentration of phenylacetylene. The use of the protected phenol in the palladium catalyzed reaction was also extended to the high yield synthesis of 3-ethynylphenol and protected 4-ethynylphenols. The complete synthesis of 3-phenylethynylphenol, 3-ethynylphenol, and protected 4-ethynylphenol in high yields has been demonstrated and is discussed herein. Three new phenylethynyl functionalized arylene ether matrix resins have been synthesized in high yields and purity by reacting 3-phenylethynylphenol with 4,4′-dichlorodiphenyl sulfone, 4,4′-difluorobenzophenone, and bis(4-fluorophenyl)phenyl phosphine oxide, via nucleophilic poly(arylene ether) synthesis conditions. These low molecular weight materials undergo thermally induced chain extension/branching to yield an insoluble three-dimensional network at reaction temperatures of around 380°C. The low molecular weight arylene ethers endcapped with the phenylethynyl group demonstrate excellent flow characteristics and a wide processing window of about 250°C. Crosslinking of the 4,4′-bis(3-phenylethynyl phenoxy)diphenyl sulfone system for 30 min at 350°C in air afforded a T_g value of 265°C by differential scanning calorimetry measurements. Trace metal analysis for palladium and copper showed absence of these metals that would otherwise detract from the excellent thermal stability. The synthesis and characterization of these phenylethynyl endcapped arylene ether matrix resins is discussed. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

Importance of the Debye interaction in organic solutions: Henry's law constants for polar liquids in nonpolar solvents and vice versa

Henry's law constants have been determined for -butyrolactone (BL), ethyl acetate (EA), and 2-methyl-3-pentanol (MEP) in mixtures of iso-octane (ISO) and toluene (TOL), for BL, EA, TOL, and ISO in cinnamaldehyde (CIN) and for TOL and ISO in each other and in BL. From these data and published vapor pressures, the activity coefficients at infinite dilution and the standard molar Gibbs free energy of transfer, G ₂ ⁰ of the solutes from dilute solution in ISO to dilute solution in each solvent medium have been calculated. The different behavior patterns of BL and EA are attributed to differences in their abilities to exist in different conformations possessing different dipole moments. For polar solutes, G ₂ ⁰ decreases with increasing polarizability of the solvent and with increasing dipole moment of the solute, suggesting increased contributions from dipole-induced dipole (Debye) interactions. The sigmoidal plot of G ₂ ⁰ against the change in pair potential energy calculated from the classical expressions suggests that G ₂ ⁰ seriously underestimates the strength of the Debye interactions in comparison with the London interactions.

Thermal latency of novel chelating borate catalysts as latent catalysts for epoxy–phenolic resins

Novel quaternary ammonium bis(2‐oxybenzoyloxy)borate salts ( 1a – 1c ) or quaternary ammonium bis(1,2‐benzenedioxy)borate salts ( 2a and 2b ) with tetra‐n‐butylammonium (TBA⁺), tetra‐n‐octylammonium (TOA⁺), or bis(triphenylphosphoranylidene)ammonium (PNP⁺) cations were synthesized as latent catalysts of epoxy/phenol–novolac resins by the complexation between boric acid and salicylic acid or catechol, followed by neutralization with quaternary ammonium hydroxide. Polyaddition reactions of diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A (DGEBA) and 4,4′‐bisphenol F (44BPF) or bisphenol F (BPF‐D) with the ammonium borates were investigated as model reactions of epoxy/phenol–novolac resin systems with respect to the thermal latency and storage stability of the catalyst. The polyaddition of DGEBA/44BPF with 1a – 1c in diglyme at 150 °C for 6 h proceeded up to 85–96% conversions and gave polymers with number‐average molecular weights of 4180–10,500, whereas the polyaddition at 80 °C for 6 h gave less than 8% conversions. However, the polyaddition with 2a containing TBA⁺ cation proceeded to only a 32% conversion at 150 °C for 6 h in diglyme and to a 64% conversion even at 180 °C for 6 h in triglyme and only gave low molecular weight oligomers, and no reaction proceeded in the polyaddition at 80 °C. However, polyaddition with 2b containing PNP⁺ cation proceeded up to a 96% conversion at 150 °C for 6 h in diglyme and gave a higher molecular weight polymer with a number‐average molecular weight of 8050, whereas the polyaddition at 80 °C for 6 h gave only a 5% conversion. The catalytic activity of ammonium borates 1a – 1c and 2a and 2b depended on the borate anion structure: 1a and 1c with bis(2‐oxybenzoyloxy)borate anion revealed higher activity than 2a and 2b with bis(1,2‐benzenedioxy)borate anion, respectively. In comparison with tetra‐n‐butylammonium bromide (TBAB) as a conventional ammonium salt or tetra‐n‐butylammonium tetrakis(benzoyloxy)borate (TBA‐TBB), 1a – 1c and 2b revealed better thermal latency. The catalytic activity of ammonium borates also depended on the bulkiness of the ammonium cation, and the order of activity was 1c (PNP⁺) > 1b (TOA⁺) ≧ 1a (TBA⁺) and 2b (PNP⁺) > 2a (TBA⁺). The storage stability of DGEBA/BPF‐D with the ammonium borate catalysts 1a – 1c and 2a and 2b in bulk at 40 °C was much better than that with TBAB and TBA‐TBB. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Synthesis of cationic water-soluble esters of chlorin e6

Two esters of chlorin e₆ have been synthesized by esterification with aminoalcohols via the formation of acid chloride using oxalyl chloride and converted to the corresponding cationic water-soluble esters of chlorin e₆. The visible absorption and circular dichroism spectra have revealed that these two cationic chlorin e₆ esters synthesized are readily soluble in water as a monomer.     

Improved solid-phase peptide synthesis of ‘difficult peptides’ by altering the microenvironment of the developing sequence

Three types of resins, related to the spacer, environmental and microenvironmental models were prepared by grafting commercial AMP polymer with 2-[2-(2-aminoethylamino)-2-oxoethoxy]acetic acid. All resins were highly loaded and functionalized with Rink-amide linker. A comparative synthesis of the classic difficult sequence ACP (65-74) on the prepared resins by Fmoc/t-Bu chemistry is presented. The ‘microenviromental’ model resin afforded the crude peptide in the highest purity (98%).
