ENDOR spectroscopic and molecular orbital study of the dynamical properties of the side chain in radical anions of ubiquinones Q-1, Q-2, Q-6, and Q-10

The dynamics of the side chain of the radical anions of ubiquinones Q-1 (2,3-dimethoxy-5-methyl-6-[3-methyl-2-butenyl]-1,4-benzoquinone), Q-2, Q-6, and Q-10 have been investigated using electron nuclear double-resonance (ENDOR) spectroscopy. When radicals are produced in the liquid phase, secondary radicals are also formed. The EPR spectra of these additional radicals overlap with the radical of interest. ENDOR spectroscopy was found to be capable for studying the dynamical properties of such conditions. The temperature dependence of the isotropic hyperfine coupling constants of the beta- and gamma-protons of the side chain was measured. The activation energy of the rotation and other dynamical properties of the side chain were calculated assuming that rotation can be modeled by the classical two-jump model. The rotation energy barrier for Q-1 was also determined by the hybrid Hartree-Fock/density functional method UB3LYP with the 6-31G(d) basis set. Calculated results were in good agreement with the experimental results. Despite the numerous parameters affecting the ENDOR linewidth ENDOR spectroscopy was shown to be a potential method for studying the dynamical properties of the mixtures of the radicals. Prominent forbidden transitions appear in the ENDOR spectra when alkali ions are present in the sample. From these transitions measured ENDOR-induced EPR spectra showed an additional doublet and phase transition in electron Zeeman frequency.

Microwave-assisted synthesis and characterization of Bi-substituted yttrium garnet nanoparticles

Bi-substituted yttrium iron garnet (Bi-YIG, Bi_1.8Y_1.2Fe₅O₁₂) nanoparticles were prepared by microwave-assisted co-precipitation as well as conventional co-precipitation using ammonia aqueous solution as precipitant. The nanoparticles were characterized by thermal gravity-differential thermal analysis, X-ray powder diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, dynamic light scattering and vibrating sample magnetometer, respectively. The Faraday rotation of Bi-YIG modified PMMA slices was also investigated. Results demonstrate that the Bi-YIG nanoparticles prepared by microwave-assisted co-precipitation show smaller particle size and higher Faraday rotation than those prepared by conventional co-precipitation.     

Theoretical Study of Formamide Tautomers—A Discussion of Enol-Keto Isomerizations and Their Corresponding Energies

In order to gain insight into the formamide molecule, seven tautomers and twelve transition states are found after being modeled by the density function theory of Becke's three-parameter hybride (B3LYP) type and ab initio Möller–Plesset second-order perturbation (MP2)-type methods. The isomerization phenomena between enol-keto tautomers and transition states via internal rotation or the proton transfer process are surveyed. A localized analysis is also introduced to ascertain the bond character caused by the delocalization of electrons, which will force the formamide tautomers to become planar. The trans effect in the molecule increases molecular stability.     

Fourier Invariant Partially Approximating Subalgebras of the Irrational Rotation C*-Algebra

For a dense G-set of parameters, the irrational rotation algebrais shown to contain infinitely many C*-subalgebras satisfyingthe following properties. Each subalgebra is isomorphic to adirect sum of two matrix algebras of the same (perfect square)dimension; the Fourier transform maps each summand onto theother; the corresponding unit projection is approximately central;the compressions of the canonical generators of the irrationalrotation algebra are approximately contained in the subalgebra.2000 Mathematics Subject Classification 46L80, 46L40, 46L35.
