高纯硅低能粒子辐照E′色心形成动力学研究

考虑固有点缺陷形成E′色心的情况，建立了E′色心形成的动力学模型，得到了高纯硅低能粒子辐照E′色心浓度与辐照剂量的关系式.结果表明，在低辐照剂量下，E′色心浓度随剂量的变化呈线性增长；随着辐照剂量的增加，E′色心浓度随剂量的变化呈饱和趋势.如果进一步考虑E′色心和其他物质反应形成新的稳定结构，E′色心浓度随剂量的变化呈双指数关系，E′色心浓度随剂量的变化不再趋于饱和状态，而是偏离饱和状态.理论结果和实验结果很好地符合，说明建立的模型是有效的.     

Trace-matrix separations for high-purity chromium,molybdenum and tungsten with cellulose collectors

Trace metals (20 elements) in high-purity chromium, molybdenum and tungsten are collected and preconcentrated by precipitation and adsorption on cellulose collectors. The compound methods allow the application of AAS and ICP-AES as determination methods for the production control of highly pure refractory metals under routine conditions.Presented in part at the 1989 European Winter Conference on Plasma Spectrochemistry, Reutte, Austria     

Synthesis and optical characterization of novel azacrown ethers containing an acridinone or an N-methylacridinone unit as potential fluorescent chemosensors

Four new achiral and four new chiral monoazacrown ethers containing an acridinone or an N-methylacridinone fluorescent signalling unit were prepared by reacting chloromethyl-substituted acridinone derivatives with achiral monoazacrown ethers with different cavity sizes and enantiopure monoaza-18-crown-6 ethers having two methyl and two isobutyl groups on their chiral centres, respectively. The operation of these chemosensors is based on the photoinduced electron transfer (PET) process, thus they show fluorescence enhancement in the presence of cationic guests. Their fluorescent behaviour as well as their complexation properties towards selected metal ions and the enantiomers of α-(1-naphthyl)ethylammonium perchlorate and potassium mandelate were examined.     

Amplification of chirality as a pathway to biological homochirality

Amplification of enantiomeric enrichment is a key feature for the chemical evolution of biological homochirality from the origin of chirality. The aggregations of the enantiomers by diastereomeric interactions enable the modification of their enantiomeric excess during some chemical processes. Fluorine-containing chiral compounds possess large amplification effect via distillation, sublimation and achiral chromatography by self-disproportionation. Asymmetric amplifications in enantioselective catalysis occur by the differential formation and reactivity between homochiral and heterochiral aggregate in solution.We described the amplification of ee in asymmetric autocatalysis of 5-pyrimidyl alkanol in the reaction between diisopropylzinc and pyrimidine-5-carbaldehdye. During the reactions extremely low ee (ca. 0.00005% ee) can be amplified to achieve more than 99.5% ee. Since the proposed origins of chirality such as CPL, quartz, chiral organic crystals of achiral compounds and statistical fluctuation of ee can initiate the asymmetric autocatalysis with amplification of ee, the proposed origin of chirality can be linked with enantiopure organic compound in conjunction with amplification of ee by asymmetric autocatalysis. In addition, we described that the carbon isotopically chiral compound triggers the asymmetric autocatalysis of 5-pyrimiodyl alkanol to afford the enantioenriched product with the absolute configuration correlated with that of carbon isotope chirality, that is, isotope chirality including hydrogen isotopes can control the enantioselectivity of asymmetric addition of alkyl metal reagent to aldehyde.     

Different approaches of impregnation for resolution of enantiomers of atenolol,propranolol and salbutamol using Cu(II)-l-amino acid complexes for ligand exchange on commercial thin layer chromatographic plates

Atenolol and propranolol (the β-blocking agents) and salbutamol (broncho- and vasodilator) were resolved into their enantiomers by adopting different modes of loading/impregnating the Cu(II) complexes of l-proline (l-Pro), l-phenylalanine (l-Phe), l-histidine (l-His), N,N-dimethyl-l-phenylalanine (N,N-Me₂-l-Phe), and l-tryptophan (l-Trp) on commercial precoated normal phase plates. The three different approaches were (A) using the Cu(II)-l-amino acid complex as chiral mobile phase additive, (B) ascending development of plain commercial plates in the solutions of Cu complex, and (C) using a solution of Cu(II) acetate as mobile phase additive for the commercial TLC plates impregnated with ascending development of plates in the solutions of amino acid. Spots were located using iodine vapour. The results obtained for the three methods have been compared for their efficiency and the issue of involvement of the Cu(II) cation for the best performance of the three methods has been discussed with respect to the same mobile phase. The detection limit is 0.18 μg for each enantiomer.     

Thorough evaluation of the validity of conventional enantio-gas chromatography in the analysis of volatile chiral compounds in mandarin essential oil: A comparative investigation with multidimensional gas chromatography

The present research is focused on the determination of the enantiomeric distribution of chiral compounds, contained in mandarin essential oils, by means of conventional chiral gas chromatography with flame ionization detection (enantio-GC-FID); the results attained were compared with those derived from heart-cutting multidimensional GC-mass spectrometry (MDGC/MS), to evaluate the reliability of the monodimensional technique as a tool for quality control. The Deans-switch MDGC system was equipped with two GC ovens, which were connected via a heated transfer line, a flame ionization detector (FID1) in the first dimension and a quadrupole MS as second-dimension detector. The a priori knowledge of potential co-elutions concerning target compounds (an enantiomer and an interfering compound), when using enantio-GC-FID, could enable the use of corrected enantiomer excess values. Correction factors could be calculated through a preliminary GC-FID analysis (using an apolar column), considering the peak areas of the known interferences. The method used for the calculation of a so-called “coelution correction factor” is described, along with some examples.     

Development of a method based on on-line reversed phase liquid chromatography and gas chromatography coupled by means of an adsorption–desorption interface for the analysis of selected chiral volatile compounds in methyl jasmonate treated strawberries

A method based on the use of the through oven transfer adsorption–desorption (TOTAD) interface in on-line coupling between reversed phase liquid chromatography and gas chromatography (RPLC–GC) for the determination of chiral volatile compounds was developed. In particular, the method was applied to the study of the influence of methyl jasmonate (MJ) treatment on the production and enantiomeric composition of selected aroma compounds in strawberry. The compounds studied were ethyl 2-methylbutanoate, linalool and 4-hydroxy-2,5-dimethyl-3(2H)-furanone (i.e. furaneol), which were examined on days 3, 6 and 9 after treatment. The method developed resulted in relative standard deviations (RSDs) of 21.6%, 8.1% and 9.8% and limits of detection (LD) of 0.04, 0.07 and 0.02 mg/l for ethyl 2-methylbutanoate, linalool and furaneol, respectively. The application of the RPLC–TOTAD–GC method allowed higher levels of ethyl 2-methylbutanoate, linalool and furaneol to be detected, particularly after 9 days of treatment. Besides, MJ demonstrated to affect the enantiomeric distribution of ethyl 2-methylbutanoate. On the contrary, the enantiomeric composition of linalool and furaneol kept constant in both control and MJ-treated strawberries throughout the study. These results are discussed.     

Chiral silica-based monoliths in chromatography and capillary electrochromatography

Chiral-modified silica-based monoliths have become well-established stationary phases for both high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and capillary electrochromatography (CEC). The silica-based monoliths were fabricated either in situ in the capillaries for nano-HPLC and CEC or in a mould for “conventional” HPLC. The present review summarizes the chiral modification of silica monoliths and the recent development in the field of enantioselective separations by nano-HPLC and CEC.     

Luminescence efficiencies of self- and Tm activated CaWO4 under vacuum ultraviolet radiation excitation

Luminescence efficiency of self-activated CaWO₄ under 147 nm vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) radiation excitation is about 90% of that of BaMgAl₁₀O₁₇:Eu²⁺ (BAM), the commercial blue plasma display panel (PDP) phosphor. However, the color purity and the particle size of the former needs substantial modification before it can be considered for application in PDP. CaWO₄:Tm exhibits Tm³⁺ emission peaks in the blue region due to energy transfer from WO₄ to Tm³⁺ ions but the overall emission intensity under 147 nm excitation is reduced when compared to that of CaWO₄.     

Spin-spin coupling edition in chiral liquid crystal NMR solvent

The application of the G-SERFph pulse sequence is presented on enantiomeric mixtures dissolved in a chiral liquid crystal. It aims at editing, within one single 2D spectrum, every proton coupling which is experienced by a given proton site in the molecule, and leads to real phased T-edited spectroscopy (T=J+2D). This NMR experiment is based on the combination of homonuclear semi-selective refocusing techniques with a spatial frequency encoding of the sample. This approach, which consists in handling selectively each coupling in separate cross sections of the sample, is applied to the visualization of enantiomers dissolved in a chiral liquid crystalline phase. Advantages and limits of this methodology are widely discussed.
