Au(II)化合物[Au(CH2)2PH2]2X2 (X＝F, Cl, Br, I)的量子化学理论研究

采用从头计算HF, MP2方法和密度泛函理论, 对Au(II)系列化合物[Au(CH₂)₂PH₂]₂X₂ (X＝F, Cl, Br, I)的几何结构、电子结构和振动频率进行了研究. 研究表明Au的5d和6s电子参与Au—Au以及Au—X之间的成键. Au—Au, Au—X键强烈的电子相关作用使HF方法不适于该体系的研究, BP86和B3LYP两种泛函给出较大的Au—Au和Au—X键长, 而MP2方法和局域的密度泛函方法则给出了合理的结构参数. 局域密度泛函方法计算得到的Au—Au键和 Au—X键振动频率也与实验数据符合较好. 还运用含时密度泛函理论计算了[Au(CH₂)₂PH₂]₂X₂的电子激发能, 对分子在紫外-可见光谱范围内的电子跃迁进行了分析, 考察了卤素配体对激发能的影响, 并结合分子轨道能级的变化对此给予了解释.     

肾上腺素在脱氧核糖核酸修饰金电极上的电化学行为及铅离子的影响

用干燥／吸附法制备了脱氧核糖核酸(DNA)修饰金电极(DNA／Au)，采用循环伏安法、计时库仑法、微分脉冲伏安法、交流阻抗以及紫外光谱法研究了肾上腺素(EP)在该电极上的伏安行为及Pb^2 产生的影响。结果表明：在5mmol/L pH7．7Tris底液中，EP在DNA／Au上产生一不可逆的氧化峰(Ep＝0．16V)。该峰较EP在裸金电极上的峰(Ep＝0．11V)电位为正，灵敏度高。在有Pb^2 存在时，峰电位负移，峰高增大。微分脉冲峰高与EP浓度在0．5-75μmol/L范围内呈线性关系。氧化峰为扩散控制为主并兼有弱的吸附性。本文还探讨了其电极反应的机理，认为在无Pb^2 的情况下，EP与DNA的结合是EP嵌入DNA中为主并兼有一定程度的静电吸附。有Pb^2 存在的情况下EP是以EP-Pb^2 嵌入DNA的双螺旋结构中和通过静电吸附在DNA骨架上的Pb^2 为桥梁与DNA结合。

Modelling of polymer aggregates in solution

The self-consistent mean field model of Scheutjens and Fleer is used to model spherical aggregates of homopolymers and monomer—polymer particles in solution. For homopolymer aggregates we found that the chain ends are preferentially located at the exterior side of the polymer/solvent interface. The distribution of the end segments may be an important parameter in latex film formation. For monomer—polymer particles a “core-shell” structure is found with an extended core containing a monomer—polymer mixture and a thin shell a few nanometres thick strongly enriched with monomer. The monomer-enriched shell seems to function as a solvating envelope for the dangling chain ends. These results are compared with other simulations based on a single chain in a spherical-cavity model.

Synthesis, Characterization, Luminescence, and Electrochemistry of New Tetranuclear Gold(I) Amidinate Clusters: Au4[PhNC(Ph)NPh]4, Au4[PhNC(CH3)NPh]4, and Au4[ArNC(H)NAr]4

The syntheses and the X-ray structures of the tetranuclear gold(I) benzamidinate, Au₄[PhNC(Ph)NPh]₄, and the tetranuclear gold(I) acetamidinate, Au₄[PhNC(CH₃)NPh]₄, clusters are reported. The clusters are produced by the reaction of the sodium salt of an amidine ligand with the gold precursor Au(THT)Cl in a (1:1) stoichiometry. The average Au...Au distance between adjacent Au(I) atoms is ∼2.9 ?, typical of compounds having an aurophilic interaction. The four gold atoms are arranged in a square (Au...Au...Au... = 88–91°) in the acetamidinate and in a distorted square (Au...Au...Au... = 82–97°) in the benzamidinate derivative. Electrochemical oxidation of the tetranuclear complex Au₄[PhNC(Ph)NPh]₄ show three reversible waves at 0.87, 1.19, 1.42 V vs. Ag/AgCl at a scan rate of 100 mV/s in CH₂Cl₂ similar to the three reversible waves seen before from the tetranuclear complexes Au₄[ArNC(H)NAr]₄, Ar = C₆H₄-4-OMe, Ar = C₆H₄-4-Me, and Ar = C₆H₃-3,5-Cl. A summary of the chemistry of the tetranuclear Au(I) amidinate complexes Au₄[ArNC(H)NAr]₄, Ar = C₆H₄-4-OMe, C₆H₃-3,5-Cl, C₆H₄-4-Me, C₆H₄-3-CF₃, C₆F₅, C₁₀H₇ also is presented. The tetranuclear clusters Au₄[ArNC(H)NAr]₄, Ar = C₆H₄-4-OMe, Ar = C₆H₄-3-CF₃, Ar = C₆H₄-4-Me and Ar = C₆H₄-3,5-Cl are the first tetranuclear gold(I) cluster species from group 11 elements to show fluorescence at room temperature. The lifetimes of the naphthyl and trifluoromethylphenyl complexes are in the millisecond range indicating phosphorescent processes. Recently it has been shown that Au₄[ArNC(H)NAr]₄ are very effective catalysts upon calcination for room temperature CO oxidation. Congratulations to Dieter Fenske, a superb synthetic chemist with exceptional talents in cluster chemistry, on the occasion of his 65th birthday.     

A critical reappraisal of recent communications on the hydrodynamic characterization of silica (aerosil) hydrosols

Different results from recent communications on the hydrodynamic characterization of ultrasonicated silica (®Aerosil) hydrosols led to a critical reappraisal of the data.It can be concluded that the degree of dispersion achievable in pyrogenic (Aerosil) hydrosols by ultrasonication is highly sensitive to the detailed parameters of the dispersion process. Characterization in terms ofabsolute numbers of a limiting particle morphology, corresponding to minima of aggregate size, porosity and number of primary particles in the aggregate is not possible.The most straightforward approach for hydrodynamic characterization seems to be a combination of sedimentation and diffusion data.Other approaches using a combination of sedimentation and viscosity data underestimate the particle dimensions. Moreover, they are quite arbitrary since the final result depends upon the proper choice between several equations for fitting the viscosity concentration dependence; the most rigorous approach seems to be an extended Einstein equation which has recently been adapted to particle aggregates.     

Studies on the interaction of colloidal gold and serum albumins by spectral methods

The interactions of colloidal gold and serum albumins, including bovine serum albumin (BSA) and human serum albumin (HSA), were studied by fluorescence and absorption spectrometry. Fluorescence quenching spectrometry was applied to study the interactions between colloidal gold and serum albumins. At pH 7.4 phosphate-buffered saline (PBS), the intensity of fluorescence emission spectrum of serum albumins decreased in the presence of colloidal gold, which indicated that colloidal gold quenched the fluorescence of serum albumins. Experimental results indicated that the combination reactions of colloidal gold and serum albumins were static quenching processes. Based on the effect of colloidal gold on fluorescence intensity, the binding constants, the numbers of binding sites and the acting forces between colloidal gold and serum albumins were found.
