Synthesis and isomerization of conjugated oligomers containing azoimidazole unit

The Suzuki (for O1 – O3 ) and Stille (for O4 ) coupling polymerization of 2‐(phenylazo)imidazole bearing the benzyl protecting group at the 1‐position gave conjugated oligomers. The transformation from the neutral imidazole in the conjugated oligomer O2 , consisted of the alternating 2,5‐didecyl‐1,4‐phenylene unit, to the cationic imidazolium salt O2S was performed. Depending on the chemical structure of coupling partners, the absorption maximum of conjugated oligomers showed red shift or blue shift from that of the model compound M with the benzene ring at the 4,5‐positions. The absorption maximum wavelength of the cationic conjugated oligomer O2S showed a blue shift from that of the neutral conjugated oligomer O2 . The trans‐to‐cis photoisomerization of the azoimidazole unit in conjugated oligomers was observed by irradiating the light at 436 nm, and the conversion degree to the cis structure had a rough correlation with the maximum absorption wavelength of materials. The trans‐to‐cis photoisomerization in the film state was sluggish. On the other hand, the cis‐to‐trans thermal isomerization of the azoimidazole unit was confirmed and the absorbance returned to the initial state before the photoisomerization. The trans‐to‐cis photoisomerization of the cationic conjugated oligomer O2S required large energy, and the prolonged light irradiation might decompose the azoimidazole unit. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Polymerization of 2‐pentene with Ni(II) α‐diimine complex/M‐MAO catalyst and structure of the polymer

Polymerization of 2‐pentene with [ArN?C(An)C(An)·NAr)NiBr₂ (Ar?2,6‐iPr₂C₆H₃)] ( 1‐Ni) /M‐MAO catalyst was investigated. A reactivity between trans‐2‐pentene and cis‐2‐pentene on the polymerization was quite different, and trans‐2‐pentene polymerized with 1‐Ni /M‐MAO catalyst to give a high molecular weight polymer. On the other hand, the polymerization of cis‐2‐butene with 1‐Ni /M‐MAO catalyst did not give any polymeric products. In the polymerization of mixture of trans‐ and cis‐2‐pentene with 1‐Ni /M‐MAO catalyst, the M_n of the polymer increased with an increase of the polymer yields. However, the relationship between polymer yield and the M_n of the polymer did not give a strict straight line, and the M_w/M_n also increased with increasing polymer yield. This suggests that side reactions were induced during the polymerization. The structures of the polymer obtained from the polymerization of 2‐ pentene with 1‐Ni /M‐MAO catalyst consists of ? CH₂? CH₂? CH(CH₂CH₃)? , ? CH₂? CH₂? CH₂? CH(CH₃)? , ? CH₂? CH(CH₂CH₂CH₃)? , and methylene sequence ? (CH₂)_n? (n ≥ 5) units, which is related to the chain walking mechanism. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Development of a capillary gel electrophoresis method for monitoring disulfide isomer heterogeneity in IgG2 antibodies

A CGE method for monitoring the disulfide isomer distribution characteristic of IgG2 MAbs is presented. Disulfide heterogeneity of MAbs has been studied using various chromatographic and electrophoretic methods. Although CGE operates using a different selectivity mechanism from that of sorption chromatographic techniques, similar trends are present in the data, which allow the CGE method to be used as a complementary method for studying disulfide isomer distribution. This article focuses on the optimization of a capillary‐based gel electrophoresis method that can be used to support antibody development including bioprocess optimization, antibody characterization, release, and formulation stability assessment.     

计算饱和醇异构体标准生成焓的新方法

基于极性叠加原理,在成功设计烷烃异构体和多氯代烷烃生成焓计算新方法的基础上,设计了一种计算多元醇异构体生成焓的新方法,并合理地假定任一异构体的原子化焓等于三种键(C-C、C-H和C-O-H键)的键能、极性叠加能项以及氢键能项的加和.用这一模型拟合24种原子化焓数据,得到了标准生成焓的估算公式.为了检验预测的精确性,又设计了一种预测方法,使用在排除被预测的化合物条件下回归得到的参数,预测该化合物的生成焓.按这种方法,预测了24种异构体的生成焓.通过该5参数预测的相对于实验值的各种误差(平均绝对误差、均方根误差和最大绝对误差)不仅比7参数的基团法预测的对应误差小得多,而且比相应实验数据的误差还要小.与键加和法比较,该方法的模型包含了极性叠加能和氢键能量,该两项代表了主要的非键相互作用能,表征了不同异构体的结构差异,并大大减少了参数.     

Determination of toluenesulfonic acid isomers by gas chromatography

Summary A gas chromatographic method for the determination of isomeric distribution in toluenesulfonic acid samples is described. The acids are transformed into the corresponding ethyl esters by reaction with triethyl orthoformate in toluene. The reaction mixture can be injected, without further purification, into the gas chromatograph. The separation is best performed on columns containing OV-210 or polyphenyl ether (6 rings) as the stationary phase.     

Analysis on First-stage Ignition of n-Heptane at Low Temperatures with a Lumped Skeletal Mechanism

Two-stage ignition exists in the low-temperature combustion process of n-heptane and the first-stage ignition also shows a negative temperature coefficient(NTC) phenomenon. To study key reactions and understand chemical principles affecting the first-stage ignition of n-heptane, a lumped skeletal mechanism with 62 species is obtained based on the detailed NUIGMech1.0 mechanism using the directed relation graph method assisted by sensitivity analysis and isomer lumping. The lumped mechanism shows good performance on ignition delay time under wide conditions. The study revealed that the temperature after the first-stage ignition is higher and a larger amount of fuel is consumed at lower initial temperatures. The temperature at the first-stage ignition is relatively insensitive to the initial temperature. Further sensitivity analysis and reaction path analysis carried out based on the lumped mechanism show that the decomposition of RO₂ to produce alkene and HO₂is the most important reaction to inhibit the first-stage ignitions. The chain branching explosion closely related to the first-stage ignition will be terminated when the rate constant for the RO₂ decomposition is larger than that of the isomerization of RO₂ to produce QOOH. The NTC behavior as well as other characteristics of the first-stage ignition can be rationalized from the competition between these two reactions.

Syntheses and Crystal Structures of Two CuII Coordination Isomers [Cu(pmt)2] · 4H2O (1) and {[Cu(pmt)2] · 2H2O} n (2)

Abstract  A pair of Cu^II coordination isomers [Cu(pmt)₂] · 4H₂O (1) and {[Cu(pmt)₂] · 2H₂O} _n (2) [Hpmt = 2-(2-pyridylmethylamino) ethanesulfonic acid] have been prepared by reaction of the same proportion CuCl₂ · 2H₂O and Hpmt but with different experimental methods in water–methanol mixed solution, and were characterized by X-ray diffraction, elemental analysis, IR spectrum. X-ray analysis indicates that complex (1) is a mononuclear complex in which two deprotonated pmt ligands coordinate in a facial tridentate arrangement about the Cu^II atom. While complex (2) is a coordination polymer, in which four N atoms of pmt ligands coordinate to one Cu^II atom but its sulfonate O atoms bond to adjacent Cu^II atom. Thus 12-membered rings (–Cu–N–C–C–S–O–)₂ are obtained between two neighbouring Cu^II atoms and they connect one another to form this new polymer.

Crystal structures of two isomeric oximes. (EE)-2-methyl-3-phenyl-3-thiocyanatopropenaldoxime and (Z)-5-methyl-6-phenyl-1,3-thiazin-2-one oxime

The crystal structure of two isomeric oximes, C₁₁N₁₀N₂OS have been studied by X-ray diffraction. The open-chain thiocyanato derivative is somewhat'less dense and crystallizes with the orthorhombic space group Pbcn;a,b,c=18.718(1), 10.601(3), 11.528(1) Å,Z=8. The heterocyclic isomer occurs as pseudo-orthorhombic (Cmma)twinned crystals of space group P2₁/n, a, b, c, =12.11(1), 7.46(1), 12.12(1) Å, 100.09(1)^o,Z=4. Twinning occurs as a result of the near-equality of the monoclinica andc cell constants.     

一个闭环二噻吩乙烯及其Ag(Ⅰ)配合物的合成、结构和光致变色性质

首次合成了一个含氰基二噻吩乙烯闭环体化合物(L_c),用IR、¹H NMR及X射线单晶衍射研究其结构,表明它是一对R,R和S,S对映异构体组成的消旋混合物,证实了光化学顺旋环化反应中己三烯结构转变为环己二烯结构。紫外可见光谱研究表明其在THF溶液和固相均具有可逆的光致变色性质,可见区最大吸收波长为607 nm。光异构化动力学研究表明开环反应为一级反应,而闭环反应为0级反应。将其进一步用作配体与Ag(CF₃SO₃)自组装合成了配合物1,并用元素分析、IR、¹H NMR及电喷雾质谱进行结构表征。1在固相具有可逆的光致变色性质,但与开环配体组装的配合物不同,由于刚性的闭环配体结构限制了2个噻吩环的自由旋转,银离子与闭环配体配位未能修饰配体的吸收波长,1的可见区最大吸收波长与配体相同。与闭环配体相比,1的光异构化反应速度更快,这和循环伏安法测得其具有比配体更小的带隙结果一致。
