Synthesis of a novel rigid molecule family for the investigation of electron and energy transfer

Three new rigid bridging ligands for metal complexation (7=bmb, 8=bqb and 11=btb) were prepared from a rigid triptycene spacer connected to two bipyridine ligands using a Horner–Emmons type reaction. The triptycene spacer is substituted by methoxy groups in the case of bmb and in the case of bqb by a benzoquinone substituent. The corresponding metal complexes (ruthenium and/or osmium) were synthesised and the different luminescence behaviour was tested. They show great potential for the investigation of intramolecular electron and energy transfer reactions. The dinuclear metal complex Ru---bqb---Os is an interesting system in which the bridging ligand bqb acts as a redox switch, able to tune the conductivity for energy or electrons across the bridge.     

Polarography in solution of some problems in organic chemistry: recent applications

Applications of chromatographic and atomic absorption methods are compared with those of electroanalytical techniques. The limitations of electroanalytical procedures and their advantages, such as speed, sensitivity and speciation are discussed. Among applications of polarography and voltammetry to a solution of basic problems, attention has been paid to the possibility to distinguish the degree of conjugation (e.g. of compounds containing the grouping CNNC), to a contribution to understanding of solution chemistry of mitomycin C and to processes involved in the reduction of cephalosporins. Among practical applications, the possibility to analyze suspensions, which can be carried out without separation offers advantages. Examples are interactions in suspensions of bile salts in the presence of metal (II) ions, adsorptions of various pesticides and other toxic materials on lignin and the possibility to follow alkaline cleavage of lignin in buffers pH 8-12 at 25 °C. Most of these studies would not be possible to carry out using other techniques.     

Control of optical properties of gel-derived oxide coating films containing fine metal particles

Control of the optical properties of gel-derived oxide films containing fine metal particles is described. The duration of the aging of Si(OC₂H₅)₄-derived sols and the amount of water for hydrolyzing Si(OC₂H₅)₄ were found to greatly affect the size and the shape of Au particles formed in the silica matrix, and accordingly the optical absorption of the Au/SiO₂ composite films. Employing dielectric media with high refractive indices like TiO₂ was shown to shift the absorption peak of Au particles to longer wavelengths. Pd/TiO₂ and Pt/TiO₂ composite films showed absorption in the visible region.

若干3d过渡金属的硫代脯氨酸配合物

合成了七个新的过渡金属的硫代脯氨酸(tcH)配合物,它们分别是:[M(tc)_2](M=Mn(Ⅱ),Co((Ⅱ))和Ni(Ⅱ)),[Ni(tc)(Ac)(H_2O)],[Ni(tc)(tcH)(H_2O)]NO_3·H_2O,[Ni(tc)(Py)_2(H_2O)NO_3和[Fe(tc)_2(Cl)(H_2O)]。上述配合物的磁化率,摩尔电导,热量分析,红外及电子光谱数据表明,它们都具有八面体构型,tcH主要通过亚氨氮和羧基氧原子与金属键合。文章对这些配合物的可能结构作了初步的讨论。

GRAFT COPOLYMERIZATION OF VINYL MONOMERS ONTO STARCH INITIATED BY TRANSITION METAL-THIOUREA REDOX SYSTEMS

In this paper, the capabilities of grafting acrylonitrile (AN) onto starch initiatedby Fe(III)-TU, V(V)-TU, Cr(VI)-TU, Mn(VII)-TU redox systems were compared in thepresence of sulfuric acid of different concentrations. It was shown that the grafting capabili-ty of Mn(VII)-TU is the highest in these initiating systems. Using Mn (VII-TU as initia-tor, the effects of various acids (HClO_4, H_2SO_4, HNO_3, HCl) on the graft copolymerizationof acrylonitrile onto starch were discussed, and the capabilities of graft copolymerizationof methyl methacrylate (MMA), acrylamide (AM), acrylic acid (AA) onto starch wereinvestigated. The experimental results show that the order of the influences of differentacids is HClO_4>H_2SO_4>HNO_3>HCl, and the order of grafting capabilities of differentmonomers grafted onto starch is MMA>AN>AM>AA. The structure and morphology ofgraft copolymers were studied with infrared spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy.The size, shape and roughness of surface of the grafted starch granules are changed aftergrafting.

Protection of immobilized sulfhydryl groups against autooxidation by alterations in their microenvironment

Immobilized sulfhydryl groups were prepared by partial thiolation of NH₂-glass beads. The microenvironment of the immobilized SH groups was varied by different chemical modifications of neighboring NH₂ groups. Introduction of a strong charge in the surroundings of immobilized sulfhydryls results in their dramatic stabilization against autooxidation. This effect is due to the salting of O₂ from the surface microlayer of the thiolated beads.
