Conductance in homomorphous solvents: Tetrabutylammonium salts and alkali picrates in butyrolactone-sulfolane mixtures

Conductance measurements are reported for LiPi, NaPi, KPi, RbPi, CsPi, Bu₄NPi, Bu₄NBr, Bu₄NClO₄, Bu₄NNO₃, and Bu₄NBBu₄ at 25°C in -butyrolactone-sulfolane mixtures. In these mixtures of solvents that are practically homomorphous, isodielectic and with comparable dipole moments, the ion pair association and ionic mobilities of large ions conform to the expectations of the primitive model. Electrolytes containing lithium or sodium ions show anomalies indicating that other factors besides shape, dipole moment, and polarizability of the solvent molecules are involved in the association and transport processes of these ions.

Existence of aromatic sp~2 C-H…O = C intramolecular interaction similar to hydrogen bond

A 'H NMR signal shifted drastically to down field (δ - 10.0) at the bay area and in dose proximity to C = O group for H-1 was observed through complete assignments of 1H NMR spectra for pyridino- and benzobenzanthrones. It is concluded that this phenomenon is due not only to the anisotropy effect of C=O plus aromatic ring current effect, but also to the electrostatic attraction of C-H (δ+)…O(δ-)=C interaction. The evidence for the sp2C-H…O = C intramolecular interaction similar to hydrogen bond has also been given by EI-MS and MS/MS (CID) spectroscopy and IR spectroscopy, as well as MNDO-PM3 calculations. This new kind of interaction might be called 'quasi-hydrogen bond'.     

Study on the electroreduction of In(III) ions at gold from acidic bromide solutions by the rotating ring-disc electrode technique

The mechanism of the indium electrodeposition on gold from acidic KBr solutions has been investigated by means of the rotating ring-disc electrode technique. The measurements showed that the overall electrode reaction In(III) + 3 e In consists of two successive charge transfer steps, i.e. In(III) + 2 e In(I) and In(I) + e In, with soluble monovalent indium as an intermediate. The current efficiency for In(I) generation under steady-state conditions is 100% in the case of low disc current densities. The disproportionation of In(I) in the bulk of solution occurs in slightly acidified solutions,pH=2, in addition to the In(I) electrochemical reduction. Based on the ring current transients, it was established that the two-electron transfer step is preceded by the formation of a thin passive film of indium metal.

Untersuchung der elektrochemischen Reduktion von In(III)-Ionen an Gold in sauren Bromidlösungen mit der rotierenden Ring-Scheiben-Elektrode

Zusammenfassung Mit Hilfe der rotierenden Ring-Scheiben-Elektrode wurde der Mechanismus der kathodischen Abscheidung von Indium auf Gold in sauren KBr-Lösungen untersucht. Aus den Messungen folgt, daß die Bruttoreaktion In(III) + 3e In über zwei aufeinanderfolgende Durchtrittsreaktionen, In(III) + 2 e In(I) und In(I) + e In, mit löslichem einwertigem Indium als Zwischenprodukt abläuft. Bei kleinen Stromdichten werden die In(I)-Ionen mit 100%iger Stromausbeute erzeugt. In schwächer sauren Lösungen (pH=2) konnte außer der elektrochemischen Reduktion von In(I) zusätzlich dessen Disproportionierung innerhalb der Lösung ermittelt werden. Auf Grund der Ringstrom-Zeit-Kurven wurde auch festgestellt, daß die Bildung von einer dünnen In-Metallschicht, die ein passives Verhalten aufweist, dem Zweielektronenübergang vorangegangen ist.

     

Mechanistic aspects of the Wolff-Kishner reaction. V. The cation effect on the reaction of benzophenone hydrazone in butyl carbitol and decyl alcohol

The rate of the Wolff-Kishner reaction of benzophenone hydrazone in butyl carbitol increases as the cation of the alkoxide base is varied in the order K>Na>Li>Mg. The replacement of butyl carbitol by 1-decanol also accelerates the reaction, and an additional increase is caused by the presence of crown ether. On the basis of changes in the activation parameters, it is concluded that the reactivity of the hydrazone anion increases as the contact ion pair becomes more fully solvated and dissociated.     

Quantitative SIMS analysis of SiC

We performed a systematic study of ion‐implanted 6H‐SiC standards to find the optimal regimes for SIMS analysis. Relative sensitivity factors (RSFs) were acquired for operating conditions typical of practical SIMS applications. The experimental SiC RSFs were compared with those found for silicon: 1 the matrix effect was insignificant in most cases. It was found that the SiO^? cluster ion cannot represent correctly the real oxygen distribution in SiC. The physics of the effect is discussed. Copyright © 2003 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Metabolomic-based investigation of Yinlan alleviating hyperlipidemia by inhibiting blood stasis and phlegm turbidity through the PXR-CYP3A4-ABCB1-FXR pathway

Yinlan lipid regulatory capsule (YL) is a composite traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) new drug to alleviate hyperlipidemia, while its therapeutic mechanism in vivo was not clarified with nontargeted metabolomics investigation. An animal model was established in rats fed a high-fat diet, and their body weights, body mass index (BMI) and blood cholesterol levels were measured. Serum, liver and kidney tissue samples were also extracted for PXR-CYP3A4-ABCB1-FXR signaling pathway research using PCR and UHPLC–MS. The obtained plasma samples were analyzed by UHPLC-Q-TOF-MS metabolomic investigation, which revealed PXR-CYP3A4-related metabolites and changes induced by YL. Finally, the key metabolites were chosen as index components, and their levels in the serum, liver, small intestine and bile were used for simultaneous UHPLC–MS-MS determination. The results indicated that YL was effective in rebalancing blood TG and TC levels (compared to controls). With respect to the PXR-CYP3A4-ABCB1 pathway, as a result of YL’s effect, gene expression or activity of the two targets decreased significantly in both the liver and kidney. The same trend was observed in the serum samples mentioned above. Metabolomics screening and data revealed that 44 metabolites can be regarded as biomarkers related to hyperlipidemia, fatty acids synthesis, and body energy consumption, as well as synthesis, transportation and exertion of cholesterol. YL’s treatment focused on 26 of them, primarily bile acids, indicating that the antihyperlipidemic effect of this drug lies in its inhibitory activity of cholesterol metabolism. Subsequent analysis of those in vivo components revealed that significant increases (compared to the model group) occurred in the blood, liver, small intestine and bile in groups that received medium and high doses of YL (while the low dose was relatively unchanged). Those target components exhibit a close relationship with PXR and/or CYP3A4. The use of YL repressed PXR expression and subsequently decreased CYP3A4 activity. As a result, synthesis of related bile acids increased, while cholesterol levels decreased, consequently leading to the attenuation of hyperlipidemia. This study comprehensively investigated the antihyperlipidemia mechanism of YL based on its repression of PXR-CYP3A4 activity and related metabolite yield, establishing an accurate method for evaluating the therapeutic effect of YL.
