磺化丁基橡胶离聚体在混合溶剂中的聚集行为

用顺磁共振（ESR）谱和粘度法考察了磺化丁基橡胶离聚体在二甲苯／正己醇混合溶剂中的聚集行为．ESR谱表明离聚体的离子基团发生聚集，其聚集程度受极性共溶剂（正己醇）的影响．粘度考察表明，在不同的浓度时离子基团有不同的聚集形式，低浓度时以分子内聚集为主，高浓度时以分子间聚集为主．离聚体的聚集度（DA）与浓度（c）的关系可用经验式DA＝Aexp（kc2）表示，其中A、k为常数．k值反映聚集度受浓度影响的程度，醇含量增大时k值减小，这是因为醇对离子的溶剂化作用导致离子聚集的倾向减小．

Influence of the aggregation state in solution on the supramolecular organization of adsorbed type I collagen layers

In the last years, adsorbed collagen was shown to form layers with a supramolecular organization depending on the substrate surface properties and on the preparation procedure. If the concentration of collagen and the duration of adsorption are sufficient, fibrillar collagen structures are formed, corresponding to assemblies of a few molecules. This occurs more readily on hydrophobic compared to hydrophilic surfaces. This study aims at understanding the origin of such fibrillar structures and in particular at determining whether they result from the deposition of fibrils formed in solution or from the building of assemblies at the interface. Therefore, type I collagen solutions with an increasing degree of aggregation were prepared, using the “neutral-start” approach, by ageing pH 5.8 solutions at 37 °C for 15 min, 2 or 7 days. The obtained solutions were used to investigate the influence of collagen aggregation in solution on the supramolecular organization of adsorbed collagen layers, which was characterized by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and atomic force microscopy. Polystyrene and plasma-oxidized polystyrene were chosen as substrates for the adsorption. The size and the density of collagen fibrils at the interface decreased upon increasing the degree of aggregation of collagen in solution. This is explained by a competitive adsorption process between monomers and aggregates of the solution, turning at the advantage of the monomers. More aggregated solutions, which are thus depleted in free monomers, behave like less concentrated solutions, i.e. lead to a lower adsorbed amount and less fibril formation at the interface. This study shows that the supramolecular fibrils observed in adsorbed collagen layers, especially on hydrophobic substrates, are not formed in the solution, prior to adsorption, but are built at the interface, through the assembly of free segments of adsorbed molecules.     

Fractal Characterization of Silica Sol Prepared by the Sol-Gel Method: From the Sol Formation to the Flocculation Process

The fractal characterization of silica particles prepared by the sol-gel method was obtained; from the beginning of the sol-gel synthesis to the aggregation process of these particles by adding metal ions in solution, the fractal dimension was determined. At the beginning of the sol-gel process, unstable structures were formed due, essentially, to the auto-catalytic nature of the sol-gel condensation reactions; these particles are fractal structures with a fractal exponent corresponding to a reaction limited aggregation regime. As the time proceeds, the reactants are consumed approaching the system to equilibrium, stabilizing the size of the silica particles. The silica sol can be flocculated by adding metal ions in solution. The fractal exponent for the aggregation process was determined, obtaining a value corresponding to a diffusion limited aggregation regime.     

Synthesis of SiO2@SiO2 core-shell microspheres using urea-formaldehyde polymers as the templates for fast separation of small solutes and proteins

The monodisperse superficially porous core-shell silica microspheres (CSSMs) with controllable shell thickness and pore size were synthesized by an improved polymerization-induced colloid aggregation (PICA) approach for fast separation of small solutes and proteins.     

Endohedral Mixed Aggregates: Sodium Alkoxide Cages with Organic or Inorganic Central Anions and Variable Hull

Alkali metal alkoxides are widely used in chemistry due to their Brønsted basic and nucleophilic properties. Potassium alkoxides assist alkyllithium in the metalation of hydrocarbons in Lochmann-Schlosser-bases. Both compounds form mixed aggregates, which enhance the thermal stability, solubility, and the basic reactivity of these mixtures. A very unusual spherical mixed alkoxy aggregate was discovered by Grützmacher et al., where a central dihydrogen phosphide anion is surrounded by a highly dynamic shell of thirteen sodium atoms and a hull of twelve tert-butoxide groups. This structural motif can be reproduced by a reaction of trimethylsilyl compounds of methane, halogens, or pseudo-halogens with excess sodium tert-butoxide. A nucleophilic substitution releases the corresponding anion, which is then encapsulated by the sodium alkoxide units. The compounds are soluble in hydrocarbon solvents, enabling studies of solutions by high-resolution NMR spectroscopy and IR/Raman studies of the crystalline materials.     

Structure of Amido Pyridinium Betaines: Persistent Intermolecular C−H⋅⋅⋅N Hydrogen Bonding in Solution

A hydrogen bond of the type C?H???X (X=O or N) is known to influence the structure and function of chemical and biological systems in solution. C?H???O hydrogen bonding in solution has been extensively studied, both experimentally and computationally, whereas the equivalent thermodynamic parameters have not been enumerated experimentally for C?H???N hydrogen bonds. This is, in part, due to the lack of systems that exhibit persistent C?H???N hydrogen bonds in solution. Herein, a class of molecule based on a biologically active norharman motif that exhibits unsupported intermolecular C?H???N hydrogen bonds in solution has been described. A pairwise interaction leads to dimerisation to give bond strengths of about 7 kJ mol^?1 per hydrogen bond, which is similar to chemically and biologically relevant C?H???O hydrogen bonding. The experimental data is supported by computational work, which provides additional insight into the hydrogen bonding by consideration of electrostatic and orbital interactions and allowed a comparison between calculated and extrapolated NMR chemical shifts.
