Characteristic features of intra- and intermolecular interactions in crystals of pyrrole-2-carbaldehyde isonicotinoylhydrazone and its hydrate

Pyrrole-2-carbaldehyde isonicotinoylhydrazone (1) and its hydrate [1·H₂O] (2) were studied by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The introduction of the pyrrole substituent into N"-substituted isonicotinic hydrazide (INH) causes the intramolecular redistribution of the electron density compared to those in INHs studied earlier, which increases the basicity of the hydrazone nitrogen atom (N") involved in intermolecular hydrogen bonding. This effect has not been observed in the structures of N"-substituted INHs and benzhydrazides studied previously. Intermolecular hydrogen bonds play a decisive role in the formation of the crystal structures of 1 and 2.     

Ion-selective electrode for gallium determination in nickel alloy, fly-ash and biological samples

A poly(vinyl chloride)-based membrane of 2,9-dimethyl-4,11-diphenyl-1,5,8,12-tetraazacyclotetradeca-1,4,8,11-tetraene (DDTCT) with sodium tetraphenyl borate (STB) as an anion excluder and dibutyl phthalate (DBP), dibutyl butylphosphonate (DBBP), tris(2-ethylhexyl) phosphate (TEP) and tributyl phosphate (TBP) as plasticizing solvent mediators was prepared and investigated as a Ga(III)-selective electrode. The best performance was observed with the membrane having the ligand-PVC-DBP-STB composition 1:4:1:1, which worked well over a wide concentration range (1.45 × 10⁻⁶ to 0.1 mol L⁻¹) with a Nernstian slope of 28.7 mV per decade of activity between pH 4.0 and 10.0. This electrode showed a fast response time of 12 s and was used over a period of 100 days with good reproducibility (s = 0.3 mV). The selectivity coefficients for monovalent, divalent and trivalent cations indicate excellent selectivity for Ga(III) ions over a large number of cations. Anions such as Cl⁻ and SO₄²⁻ do not interfere and the electrode also works satisfactorily in partially water-alcohol medium. The practical utility of the membrane sensor has also been observed in solutions contaminated with detergents, i.e., cetyltrimethylammonium bromide and sodium dodecyl sulfate and used for the determination of gallium in nickel alloy, fly-ash and biological samples.     

Sesquiterpene Lactones from <Emphasis Type="Italic">Stizolophus balsamita</Emphasis> and Their Biological Activity

Four sesquiterpene lactones with the germacrane structure were isolated from the aerial part of Stizolophus balsamita. X-ray structure analyses showed that two of them were previously known balsamin derivatives. A third was a crystalline isomorphous mixture of the known lactone stizolin and 11,13-dihydrostizolin in a 53:47 ratio. The biological activities of the balsamin derivatives were investigated. __________ Translated from Khimiya Prirodnykh Soedinenii, No. 5, pp. 454–457, September–October, 2005.     

Electronic structure and conformational flexibility of 1,2-dihydropyridine, 1,2- and 1,6-dihydropyrimidines,and their ylide derivatives

Molecular and electronic structures of 1,2-dihydropyridine, 1,2- and 1,6-dihydropyrimidine, and their oxo, imino, and methylene derivatives were studied by the semiempirical quantum-chemical AM1 method. In all compounds, the heterocycle exhibits a high conformational flexibility. The transition from a planar equilibrium conformation to a distorted sofa conformation with the =C-NH-C-C(N)= torsion angle of ±20° causes an increase in the energy by less than 1.7 kcal mol^–1. All molecules have similar -electronic structures, which, apparently, determines the similarity in their conformational behavior. The bending strain and the nonaromatic character of the cyclic -system are the factors that stabilize the nonplanar conformation of the ring in unsubstituted dihydroazines and ylide derivatives, respectively.Translated fromIzvestiva Akademii Nauk.

HPLC determination of urinary 2,4- and 2,6-toluendiamines as potential degradation products of polyurethane breast implants

Summary A reversed-phase HPLC method has been developed for the urinary determination of mutagenic 2,4- and 2,6-toluendiamines. These amines are degradation products of polyurethane, a material used to cover textured silicone breast implants. FMOC-Cl was used as fluorescent derivatising agent in order to obtain a limit of detection of 15 ng/ml in urine. Pre-treatment of urine samples was by liquid/liquid extraction and urine specimens of patients after surgury were analysed.     

Error Levels of Different Methods of Evaluation of TG Measurements

It follows from an analysis of the error levels of TG evaluation methods that it is a conceptual error to disregard the analogies of mass, energy and momentum streams of subordinate partial processes. This error is bypassed by means of the introduced method of dimensionless analysis and by determining the characteristic, constants-like data of thermal processes by using the measured data directly. These methods are very suitable for increasing the consistency of the calculated results by seeking for similarity, even in comparisons of measurements made under very different conditions and for emphasizing the differences too, quantitatively. With this new interpretation of TG processes, the idea of the kinetic compensation effect becomes only a consequence of the discussed conceptual error. This revised version was published online in August 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Diffusion-based calibration for solid-phase microextraction of benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, p-xylene and chlorobenzenes from aqueous samples

Short-term solid-phase microextraction (SPME) was performed to test a recently proposed semi-empirical model for the prediction of concentrations of analyte in water samples from the fibre-extracted mass without further calibration. The mass uptake rates obtained for benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene and p-xylene (BTEX) differ considerably from the before published, showing that interfibre comparability is a serious issue. The relative prediction errors are between -55% for benzene and +82% for p-dichlorobenzene under optimal conditions, i.e. they are by an order of magnitude higher than originally published. A sensitivity analysis shows the dominant influence of the estimated thickness of the diffusional boundary layer around the fibre on the concentration predicted. Empirical modification of the model equation for this parameter yields satisfactory results under the conditions tested for both BTEX and the selected chlorobenzenes.     

Characterization of plant oils on a monolithic silica column by high-performance liquid chromatography-atmospheric pressure chemical lonization-mass spectrometry

Summary Five plant oils (peanut, pumpkin seed, sesame seed, soybean, and wheat germ) have been analyzed by high-performance liquid chromatography-atmospheric pressure chemical ionization-mass spectrometry (HPLC-APCI-MS). Gradient elution was performed with acetone-acetonitrile mobile phases on a short monolithic silica column (SilicaROD, RP-18e, 50 mm×4.6 mm). Identification of plant oil triacylglycerols (TAG) was based on the pseudomolecular ion [M+H]⁺ and the diacylglycerol [M−RCO₂]⁺ fragments. Positional isomers of triacylglycerols were identified from the relative intensities of the [M-RCO₂]⁺ fragments. Principal-component analysis, used to find similarities and differences between the different oils, indicated that the different plant oils could be clearly differentiated according to their triacylglycerol composition.
