仪器分析教学中通过实例培养学生的创新能力——电位滴定终点确定的新方法

以电位滴定终点确定新方法探讨研究为例,从5个方面介绍将创新能力培养融入基础课教学的探索。通过该研究提高了学生基础课学习热情与学习质量。首先改进了二次差值微商终点计算方法,通过Excel计算Δ²E/ΔV²-V二次差值微商法数据表中的最高点与最低点直线线性方程y=ax+b,令y=0,x=-b/a即为终点。另外,研究得到了模拟滴定曲线微分法确定电位滴定终点的新方法。用Excel对滴定曲线进行三次方程模拟即:y=ax³+bx²+cx+d,二次微分后得到:d²y/dx²=6ax+2b,当d²y/dx²=0,对应的x=-b/3a处即为滴定终点。

Addressing association entropy by reconstructing guanidinium anchor groups for anion binding: design, synthesis, and host-guest binding studies in polar and protic solutions

The bicyclic hexahydropyrimidino[1,2a]pyrimidine cationic scaffold has a well-known capacity to bind a variety of oxoanions (phosphates, carboxylates, squarates, phosphinates). Based on this feature, the parent host was supplemented with sec-carboxamido substituents to generate compounds 1-3 in an effort to improve the anion-binding affinity and selectivity and to learn about the role and magnitude of entropic factors. Bicyclic guanidinium compounds were prepared by a convergent strategy via the corresponding tetraester 22 followed by catalytic amidation. Host-guest binding studies with isothermal titration calorimetry in acetonitrile probed the behavior of artificial hosts 1-3 in comparison with the tetraallylguanidinium compound 4 on binding p-nitrobenzoate, dihydrogenphosphate, and 2,2'-bisphenolcyclophosphate guests that showed enhanced affinities in the 10(5)-10(6) M(-1) range. Contrary to expectation, better binding emerges from more positive association entropies rather than from stronger enthalpic interactions (hydrogen bonding). In an NMR spectroscopy titration in DMSO, o-phthalate was sufficiently basic to abstract a proton from the guanidinium function, as confirmed by an X-ray crystal structure of the product. The novel carboxamide-appended anchor groups also bind carboxylates and phosphates, but not hydrogen sulfate in methanol with affinities in excess of 10(4) M(-1). The energetic signature of the complexation in methanol is inverted with respect to acetonitrile solvent and shows a pattern of general ion pairing with strong positive entropies overcompensating endothermic binding enthalpies. This study provides an example of the fact that bona fide decoration of a parent guanidinium anchor function with an additional binding functionality may provide the desired enhancement of the host-guest affinity, yet for a different reason than that implemented by design as guided by standard molecular modeling.

High Na+ Mobility in rGO Wrapped High Aspect Ratio 1D SbSe Nano Structure Renders Better Electrochemical Na+ Battery Performance

We chose to understand the cyclic instability and rate instability issues in the promising class of Na⁺ conversion and alloying anodes with Sb₂Se₃ as a typical example. We employ a synthetic strategy that ensures efficient rGO (reduced graphene oxide) wrapping over Sb₂Se₃ material. By utilization of the minimum weight of additive (5 wt.% of rGO), we achieved a commendable performance with a reversible capacity of 550 mAh g⁻¹ at a specific current of 100 mA g⁻¹ and an impressive rate performance with 100 % capacity retention after high current cycling involving a 2 Ag⁻¹ intermediate current step. The electrochemical galvanostatic intermittent titration technique (GITT) has been employed for the first time to draw a rationale between the enhanced performance and the increased mobility in the rGO wrapped composite (Sb₂Se₃-rGO) compared to bare Sb₂Se₃. GITT analysis reveals higher Na⁺ diffusion coefficients (approx. 30 fold higher) in the case of Sb₂Se₃-rGO as compared to bare Sb₂Se₃ throughout the operating voltage window. For Sb₂Se₃-rGO the diffusion coefficients in the range of 8.0×10⁻¹⁵ cm² s⁻¹ to 2.2×10⁻¹² cm² s⁻¹ were observed, while in case of bare Sb₂Se₃ the diffusion coefficients in the range of 1.6×10⁻¹⁵ cm² s⁻¹ to 9.4×10⁻¹⁵ cm² s⁻¹ were observed.     

Evaluation of the quality of colour changes of complexometric indicators in the titration of copper (II) with EDTA by tristimulus colorimetry

The quality of colour changes of the indicators hematoxylin, 4(2-pyridylazo)resorcinol (PAR), xylenol orange, pyrocatechol violet, chromazurolS and eriochrome cyanineR in the complexometric titration of copper(II) with ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) were studied with the help of tristimulus colorimetry, utilising a comparative study of the parameters SCD (specific colour discrimination), CIE La^*b^* 1976 and LABHNU 1977. Hematoxylin was found to be the best indicator among those studied. A screened indicator, viz. PAR + malachite green (52), was developed to enhance the quality of colour transition at the end-point and the accuracy of the titrimetric determination.     

Direct analysis of bottom sediments by a microcoulometric titration method for determination of total organic halide pollutants

Up to now the content of the organic halides in sediments was measured as extractable organic halides compounds by different methods including microcoulometric titration one. We describe a procedure for microcoulometric determination of total organic halide pollutants by using a direct combustion of the sediments into the microcoulometric system furnace. An accelerated removal of the inorganic chlorides by reaction with potassium nitrate using ultrasonic radiation was attained. The procedure was validated for analysis of bottom sediments from natural and anthropogenic sources. The repeatability RSD = 8.5%, the expanded relative uncertainty U (n = 7, P = 95%, k = 2) = 6.4%, the reproducibility RSD was within the range 10.0–7.3%, the average recovery R = 97.6% and method LOD = 11 mg kg⁻¹ Cl.

Topochemical modification of cotton fibres with carboxymethyl cellulose

Adsorption of carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) as a method to introduce charged (ionizable) groups onto cellulose cotton fibre surfaces was investigated. The method was based on application of a previously published method used for wood fibres. The amount of adsorbed ionizable groups was determined indirectly by analysis of CMC in solution by the phenol–sulphuric acid method and directly by conductometric titration of the fibres. Results from the two methods correlated well. The molecular weight and purity of the CMC had an influence on its adsorption onto cotton; high molecular weight CMC was preferentially adsorbed. The adsorbed charge correlated linearly with the amount of CMC adsorbed. The total charge of the cotton fibres could be increased by more than 50% by adsorption of CMC. It is expected that this modification procedure can be used in a wide spectrum of practical applications.
