Quantitative determination of norethisterone acetate in human plasma by capillary gas chromatography with mass-selective detection

An analytical method for the determination of norethisterone acetate (NETA) in human plasma by capillary gas chromatography-mass-selective detection (GC-MS), with testosterone acetate as internal standard, was developed and validated. After addition of the internal standard, the compounds were extracted from plasma at basic pH into diethyl ether-dichloromethane (3:2 v/v), which was then evaporated to dryness. The compounds were converted into their pentafluoropropionyl derivatives which were determined by gas chromatography using a mass selective detector at m/z 486 for NETA and m/z 476 for the internal standard. Intra-day and inter-day accuracy and precision were found suitable over the range of concentrations between 0.10 to 10 ng/ml. The method was applied to clinical samples.     

A facile approach to surface graft vinyl acetate onto polyolefin articles

A facile and environment friendly approach was developed to graft vinyl acetate (VAc) onto plastic articles in an aqueous solution using tert‐butyl alcohol (TBA) as a compatiblizer and benzoyl peroxide (BPO) as an initiator. In a novel setup, excessive monomer suspended in a water phase, VAc could be conveniently grafted on the model substrate of low‐density polyethylene (LDPE) film and the graft percentage (GP) could be developed up to 7.3%. Reaction temperature could increase GP significantly, while adding monomer over a critical volume did not influence GP. By adding some paradioxybenzene, i.e. 0.06–0.08% in VAc phase, homopolymer PVAc could be avoided practically, while graft polymerization proceeded favorably in aqueous solutions. It was proved by attenuated total reflection‐infrared (ATR‐IR) spectroscopy that grafted VAc was located mainly at the surface of the LDPE film and hydrophilic nature of both grafted and alcoholyzed films were improved via contact angle measurements.

Unusual impurity effect on room-temperature ferromagnet Sr3YCo4O10.56

We have prepared polycrystalline samples of Sr₃YCo₄O_10.56, Sr_2.4Ca_0.6YCo₄O_10.54, and Sr₃YCo_3.76Mn_0.24O_10.59, and found that these materials show unusual impurity effects on their transport and magnetic properties. A tiny amount of impurities such as Mn or Ca suppresses room-temperature ferromagnetism of Sr₃YCo₄O_10.56. With the suppression, their resistivities and thermopowers are also dramatically changed. We propose that the unusual impurity effects are caused by the suppression of orbital ordering.     

Dioxygen Affinities and Catalytic Oxidation Performance of Cobalt (II)Complexes with N-Aryl Hydroxamic Acid

It is well known that the study on biomimetic oxygen carriers not only has important theoretic significance to discover the mechanism of reversible bonding, activating oxygen as well as the oxidation reaction in organism, but also has potential application in separating oxygen from air and realizing the high efficiency and selectivity of catalytic oxidation reaction under a mild condition1. Metal- porphyrin and metal- phthalol- gaunine have been extensively used as biomimetic oxygen carriers u…     

The formation of cation-ligand complexes of tributylammonium cation with diethyl carbonate,ethylene carbonate,propylene carbonate, 4-butyrolactone,ethyl acetate,and cyclopentanone ino-dichlorobenzene at 25°C

The effects of adding millimolar quantities of a series of compounds containing the carbonyl function on the conductances of solutions (0.2 mM) of tri-n-butylammonium picrate ino-dichlorobenzene solvent at 25°C have been measured. Values of the complex formation constants K ₁ ⁺ for 1:1 cation-ligand complexes are derived from these data. The corresponding values of –G ₁ ⁰ at 25°C are (in kcal-mole ^–1 ): 4-butyrolactone, 4.29; propylene carbonate, 3.87; ethylene carbonate, 3.59; cyclopentanone, 3.42; ethyl acetate, 2.84; and diethyl carbonate, 2.78. These results together with earlier results from this laboratory are discussed in terms of the effects of structure on cation-ligand affinity.
