Formation Mechanism and Stability Study of Konjac Glucomannan Helical Structure

The formation mechanism and stability of konjac glucomannan (KGM) helical structure were investigated by molecular dynamic simulation and experimental method. The results indicate that the molecular conformation of KGM is a non-typical helical structure. In detail, helical structure of KGM is mainly sustained by acetyl group, whose size and stability are affected by the molecular polymerization degree of KGM. In vacuum among the non-bonding interactions, electrostatic force is the greatest factor affecting its helical structure, but in water solution, hydrogen bond affects the helical arrangement greatly. To our interest, temperature exhibits a reversible destroying effect to some extent; the helical structure will disappear completely and present a ruleless clew-like arrangement till 341 K. This work suggests that the method of combining molecular dynamic simulation and experiment tools can be effective in the study of KGM helical structure.     

Synthesis and Single-crystal Structure of a Silver(Ⅰ) Carboxyarylphosphonate: [Ag(H_2BCP)(4,4'-bipy)]·2H_2O

The title compound, a novel Ag(Ⅰ) carboxyarylphosphonate [Ag(H2BCP)(4,4'- bipy)]·2H2O (H3BCP = p-H2O3PCH2C6H4COOH, 4,4'-bipy = 4,4'-bipyridine), was synthesized by a hydrothermal reaction and characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectra and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. It belongs to monoclinic system, space group P21/c with a = 5.7038(11), b = 22.397(4), c = 5.602(4) ?, β = 106.26(3)°, V = 1913.4(7) 3, Z = 4, C18H20N2O7PAg, Mr = 515.20, Dc = 1.788 g/cm3, μ = 1.182 mm-1, F(000) = 1040, the final R = 0.0404 and wR = 0.1216 for 4178 observed reflections with I 2σ(Ⅰ). In the structure, the Ag(Ⅰ) cations are bridged by 4,4'-bipy to give rise to 1D chains running along the b axis. These chains are linked further by the interactions of O (from BCP ligands) and Ag atoms to yield 2D layers. Hydrogen bonding interactions and weak π-π stacking interactions between 4,4'-bipy rings assemble such adjacent layers to generate a 3D supramolecular architecture.

The structure of 1 shows a two-dimensional layer consisting of inorganic chains of {CdN2(AsO3)2} along the a axis linking with the phenyl groups. These layers are further linked through strong interlayer hydrogen bonding interaction to form a three-dimensional hydrogen bond supramolecular architecture. Compound 2 has inorganic chains of {CdO2(AsO3)2} similar to 1, which connect with four adjacent inorganic chains forming a three-dimensional framework.

D-和L-丙氨酸的低温磁相变——磁场变化下的比热和直流磁化率(英文)

为了解D-和L-丙氨酸单晶晶格在极低温下是否存在磁手性相变,在2-20 K下改变磁场强度(0,1,3,5T)测定其比热.实验结果表明比热和温度之间的函数关系很好地符合C(T)=aT3+b/T2方程,其中aT3项为晶格声子的贡献,可由公式CV=(12/5)π4R(T/ΘD)3来描述(ΘD为德拜温度),b/T2项为磁场对比热的贡献.实验发现,在2-20 K范围内D-和L-丙氨酸单晶在不同磁场强度下均存在Boson峰(在Cp/T3-T曲线中表现为一个最大值).磁的贡献导致D-和L-丙氨酸单晶的四条Cp/T3-T曲线在2-12 K时不重合,且在12-20 K时消失,此即Schottky反常.零磁场下,D-和L-丙氨酸的Boson峰分别为9.44和10.86 K;德拜温度分别为151.5和152.7 K.结合磁场强度1 T下的直流磁化率测定,发现在温度低于5 K时,D-和L-丙氨酸单晶有相反的磁化率行为,反映了核自旋和电子自旋弱相互作用的手性表现.
