Computational examination of the electrophilic reaction on oxidative polymerization of phenyltrimethylsilane with sulfur chloride

Phenyltrimethylsilane possesses a higher HOMO energy (–9.34 eV) than nonsubstituted benzene (>0.41 eV). The π electron of the phenyltrimethylsilane localizes on the benzene ring at the ipso position rather than at the para position. Two center energies calculated by the MNDO-PM3 method indicate that the C? Si bond is facilitated to cleave in comparison with the C? H (para position) one of the benzene ring. Phenyltrimethylsilane and phenyl bis(trimethylsilane) were polymerized with sulfur chloride through the cationic oxidative polymerization. The product is isolated as oligo(p-phenylene sulfide), with a melting point of 150–190°C. An electrophile attacks the carbon atom linked to the Si atom in phenyltrimethylsilane. The new synthetic route of PPS can be established on the basis of the computational calculation.     

Comparison of Methionine α,γ‐Lyase and Homocysteine α,γ‐Lyase for Electrochemical Determination of Homocysteine

Recently, a novel enzymatic method was developed for determination of homocysteine. This method utilizes the electrochemical hydrogen sulfide sensor along with methionine α,γ‐lyase to accomplish the fast, accurate, sensitive and selective measurements. As a continuation of this work, another enzyme, homocysteine α,γ‐lyase, was used and the parallel experiments of using both enzymes were carried out against the effect of pH, sensitivity, linearity, and interferences, in an intended comparison between these two enzymes. The excellent linearity of amperometric currents against homocysteine concentrations, high sensitivities and low detection limits for both enzymes reconfirmed that the electrochemical method is superior over other analytical means. The high enzymatic activity of methionine α,γ‐lyase surpassing homocysteine α,γ‐lyase endowed the former higher sensitivity, lower detection limit and faster response than the latter, suggesting methionine α,γ‐lyase a better candidate for homocysteine measurement by electrochemical method. The differences between these two enzymes on the trends of response time and sensitivity at different pH environments, reactivity toward several forms of homocysteine as well as on the interference from several agents were also addressed and discussed.     

钽硫原子簇的形成及激光裂解的初步研究

报导用激光直接溅射的方法产生了大量的钽硫原子团簇离子Ta_nS_m~+(n≤9, m≤30),并用串级飞行时间质谱仪研究了所产生团簇离子的组成及紫外激光裂解规律。实验发现, 最稳定的团簇正离子往往具有Ta_nS_(2n+7)~+(n=1,2,…9)的组成, 相应的负离子具有, Ta_nS_(2n+3)~-(n=1,2,…9)的组成。各种团簇正离子的激光裂解的主要通道是连续的S_2消除过程, 且对于n=3,4,5的团簇, 主要光解产物还有Ta_3S_4~+或Ta_4S_6~+离子。据此推测出Ta_nS_m~+团簇离子的可能结构为在Ta原子周围有6个左右的S原子配位。Ta原子之间不存在直接的化学键,而较大团簇可能是以Ta_3S_4或Ta_4S_6为核心的结构。     

Oxidation of γ-stannyl sulfides by monochloramine CB and hydrogen peroxide

The first γ-trimethylstannyl sulfimide, Me³Sn(CH₂)₃S(=NSO₂Ar)C₅H₁₁-n, was synthesized by oxidative imination of Me₃Sn(CH₂)₃SC₅H₁₁-n with ArSO₂(Na)Cl (Ar=C₆H₄Cl-4). Oxidation of γ-trimethylstannyl sulfimide by an alkaline solution of H₂O₂ gave γ-trimethylstannyl sulfoximide, Me₃Sn(CH₂)₃S(O)(=NSO₂Ar)C₅H₁₁-n, and γ-trimethylstannyl sulfone, Me₃Sn(CH₂)₃SO₂C₅H₁₁-n, the latter compound resulting from hydrolysis of the arylsulfimide group. Oxidation of stannyl sulfide by hydrogen peroxide yielded γ-trimethylstannyl sulfoxide, Me₃Sn(CH₂)₃S(O)C₅H₁₁-n (under mild conditions) or γ-trimethylstannyl sulfone (under more severe conditions).

Effects of thermal history on the rigid amorphous phase in poly(phenylene sulfide)

The rigid amorphous phase of semicrystalline poly(phenylene sulfide) (PPS) has been studied as a function of thermal history using scanning calorimetry, dielectric relaxation, density, and small-angle x-ray scattering (SAXS). Based on the new heat of fusion of perfect crystalline PPS, which is 26.7±0.8 cal/gram, the weight fraction of rigid amorphous phase is shown to be nearly twice as large as previously reported [1]. The mass fraction of the rigid amorphous phase ranges from 0.24 to 0.42 and is dependent upon thermal treatment. We have taken the approach of assuming a three-phase model for the morphology of semicrystalline PPS consisting of crystalline lamellae, mobile amorphous, and rigid amorphous components. Using this three-phase model, we determine that the average density of the rigid amorphous fraction is 1.325 g/cc, which is slightly larger than the density of the mobile amorphous phase fraction and was insensitive to thermal history. From the SAXS long period, the layer thicknesses of the mobile amorphous phase, rigid amorphous phase, and crystal lamellae were estimated. Only the lamellar thickness shows a systematic variation with thermal history, increasing with melt or cold crystallization temperature, or with decreasing cooling rate.
