RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN X—H STRETCHING OVERTONE FREQUENCIES AND BOND LENGTHS/BOND ANGLES

A relationship between the X-H (X = N, O, C, and so on) equilibrium bond length in a Morse oscillator and the X-H stretching overtone frequency shifts is obtained theoretically. We use the equation to discuss the empirical linear relationships that have been proposed for heterocyclics, alkanes and fluorinated benzenes. On the other hand, a unified relationship between the X-H bond angles and the experimental quantities (ω(?) and the coupling strength λ) is also presented for XH2, XH, and XH4 molecules or molecular fragments. Calculations of X-H bond angles for a number of molecules show that the results from our equations are in excellent agreement with the experimental values. Also we can extract the information of relative magnitude of bond coupling force field.     

Coulometrisches Verfahren zur Bestimmung von Gesamt-, Carbonat- und Nichtcarbonat-Kohlenstoff in magmatischen, metamorphen und sediment?ren Gesteinen

Zusammenfassung Für die Bestimmung von Gesamt-, Carbonat- und Nichtcarbonat-Kohlenstoff in magmatischen, metamorphen und sedimentären Gesteinen (auch bei höheren Anteilen an organischem C) ist ein Verfahren nach dem Prinzip der coulometrischen Titration geeignet. Der Gesamt-Kohlenstoff wird ermittelt durch Erhitzung der auf <0,125 mm zerkleinerten Probe bei etwa 1250°C im Sauerstoffstrom ohne irgendwelche Zusätze. Zur Bestimmung von Nichtcarbonat-Kohlenstoff wird eine bestimmte Menge Gesteinspulver mit Salzsäure versetzt und auf einem Aluminiumblock HCl abgeraucht. Der Carbonat-Kohlenstoff entweicht als CO₂. Zurück bleibt der Nichtcarbonat-Kohlenstoff, welcher wie der Gesamt-Kohlenstoff coulometrisch bestimmt wird. Der Carbonat-Kohlenstoff bzw. die äquivalente Menge CO₂ ergibt sich dann aus der Differenz von Gesamt- zu Nichtcarbonat-Kohlenstoff. Das Verfahren ist anwendbar auf Kohlenstoffgehalte in Gesteinen von etwa 10 ppm bis 20 Gew.-% bei mittleren Standardabweichungen von etwa 0,0002–0,05% C (Richtwerte). Die Analysendauer für eine Probe beträgt etwa 3–5 min.

Coulometric method for the determination of total, carbonate, and non-carbonate carbon in igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary rocks

For the measurement of total carbon the sample, ground finer than 0.125 mm and without the addition of any reagents, is ignited in a current of oxygen at about 1250°C. Non-carbonate carbon can be analysed after another portion of the sample is treated with conc, hydrochloric acid and evaporated on a hot plate; the carbonates are decomposed and the carbonate carbon is removed as carbon dioxide. The residue is non-carbonate carbon which is also determined by the coulometric method. The difference between total carbon and non-carbonate carbon corresponds to carbonate carbon or its equivalent as carbon dioxide. The method is applicable to carbon contents in rocks from 10 ppm to 20 wt.-%. The standard deviation is approximately 0.0002 to 0.05% C. Each carbon analysis takes about 3 to 5 min.

     

R?ntgenspektrometrische Bestimmung von Eisen-55 in Luftstaub- und Niederschlagsproben

Zusammenfassung Eisen-55 wurde in Neuherberg bei München seit März 1970 in monatlich gesammelten Luftstaubproben und seit Januar 1971 in Monatsniederschlagsproben bestimmt.

Spectrographic estimation of Ga, In and Tl in semiconductor grade selenium

Summary An emission spectrographic method for the estimation of Ga, In and Tl in semiconductor grade selenium at less than a ppm concentration has been developed. The impurities were separated from 1 g of selenium by volatilizing it from its solution in nitric acid and sulphuric acid. The residue containing the impurities was dissolved in small amounts of 6 M HCl and was loaded along with the washings on 10 mg mixture containing graphite (90%) and sodium chloride carrier (10%) in the electrode crater. The spectra were excited in a d.c. arc carrying 13 A current. The detection limits lie in the range of 0.0025–0.005 ppm. The precision of the method ranges from 7–12% for these elements. The recoveries of impurities from selenium were confirmed using radioactive tracers.

HPLC Analysis of Cotinine in Urine After SPE with a Cholesterol-Modified Adsorbent

A one-step solid-phase extraction procedure, based on a new silica gel adsorbent modified with cholesterol groups, has been investigated for measurement of cotinine in urine. Cotinine is the main metabolite of nicotine in the human body and is analyzed as a biomarker for assessment of direct or passive exposure to tobacco smoke. New cholesterol-modified adsorbents have been obtained by chemical modification of silica gel of different porosity with cholesterol ligands. Although recovery by this extraction procedure were optimum over a relatively broad range of sample pH (3.1–8.0), analytical conditions such as sample loading, washing and elution conditions, concentration of cotinine to be extracted, and the type of adsorbent used for extraction were found to affect the efficiency of the procedure and had to be controlled for optimum recovery. When these conditions were controlled, recovery of cotinine from spiked human urine was reproducible and depended on compound ionization. Quantitative analysis of cotinine was performed by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography with UV detection.

A comparison of phototautomerism in different sites of free-base porphin (H2P) in n-alkane crystals

Selective laser-induced phototautomerism of free-base porphin in different n-alkanes (n-hexane, n-heptane, n-octane, nnonane, n-decane, n-undecane and n-dodecane) has been used to identify tautomer splittings in a number of sites in polycrystalline samples at 2 K. Pairs or lines arising from the two molecular orientations in each site can be reversibly transformed into each other. In the odd n-alkanes the occupation of different sites was not dependent on the rate at which the samples were frozen, but in the even n-alkanes metastable sites were only occupied following rapid quenching.     

In-gel deglycosylation of sodiumdodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis-separated glycoproteins for carbohydrate estimation by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry

Mass determination by mass spectrometric methods (electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS), matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOFMS)) of sodiumdodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE)-separated proteins is a well known procedure and reliable protocols are available. In our efforts to use the established methods to determine the molecular mass of the disulfide bridged, heterodimeric glycoprotein GP3 and to determine the carbohydrate content of each protein subunit we developed an in-gel chemical deglycosylation method. For this purpose we established experimental conditions that allow maximum extraction of the high molecular mass protein subunits and developed a routine method to apply the HF-pyridine deglycosylation protocol to proteins isolated from polyacrylamide gel pieces. The novel protocol and extraction procedure described can be used to analyze O-glycosylated proteins up to 150 kDa after SDS-PAGE separation.     

NMR investigation on the conformational properties of N-[2-pyridyl-N-oxide]-amino derivatives

The proton NMR spectra of N-[2-pyridyl-N-oxide]-derivatives of primary and secondary ethylamines, containing a substituent R on the C atom bearing the amino function, have been completely analysed in terms of the fundamental NMR parameters. The preferred conformations of the compounds investigated were established by the indications from NOE experiments as well as: (1) the long range coupling across the five bond between the aminic hydrogen and the proton in 4-position of the pyridine-N-oxide ring (⁵J_m^H,NH ～ 0·5 c/s), (2) the value of the vicinal coupling constant in the fragment CHNH (³J_NHCH ～ 7–9 c/s), (3) the large deshielding (Δτ ～ 1–1·5 ppm) observed for the resonance position of the proton on the asymmetric C atom in secondary amine derivatives with respect to the corresponding primary ones, and (4) the diamagnetic shielding produced on protons in position 3 and 4 of the pyridine-N-oxide ring by different aromatic groups introduced in the R substituent.The NMR data confirmed the preferred rotamers previously suggested on the basis of ORD and CD measurements.
