Computer simulation of conformational movement based on interconversion phenomena

A computer method has been developed which is an alternative to molecular dynamics in the sense that it pictures conformational motion. It simulates propagation in conformational movement based on conformational interconversion phenomena. The method starts with the knowledge of the topology of the conformational potential energy hyper-surface, which is described by the minima and the transition states. The topology is obtained by the recently described software . The simulation of conformational motion is based on the Boltzmann statistics of movement between the minima and the transition states at a given temperature. The method is illustrated for methyl--glucopyranoside and - -galNAc(1-3)[- -Fuc(1-2)]Gal-O-Me molecules. Conformational transitions of hydroxyl groups as well as glycosidic linkages are discussed.

The compensation effect as a result of integration of theArrhenius equation

Summary It has been shown that joined segments of straight lines are observed upon plotting the logarithm of the rate constant against the reciprocal temperature, exhibiting sharp breaks at so-called critical temperatures indicating sudden changes in activation energy [3, 5–8]. If the integration of the differential form of theArrhenius equation from 0 toT K is taken into account, the compensation effect can easily be explained.

Der Kompensationseffekt als Ergebnis der Integration derArrhenius-Gleichung

Zusammenfassung Wenn man den Logarithmus der Geschwindigkeitskonstante gegen die reziproke Temperatur aufträgt, erhält man aufeinanderfolgende Teilstücke von Geraden mit scharfen Knicks bei sogenannten kritischen Temperaturen, welche jeweils eine Änderung der Aktivierungsenergie anzeigen [3, 5–8]. Integration derArrhenius-Gleichung zwischen 0 undT K führt zu einer zwanglosen Erklärung des Kompensationseffekts.

     

Enhanced visible-light-driven photodegradation of Acid Orange 7 azo dye in aqueous solution using Fe-N co-doped TiO2

FeN -co-doped TiO₂ photocatalysts are prepared by sol–gel method using titanium tetraisopropoxide, urea and iron(II) acetylacetonate as precursors of titania, nitrogen and iron, respectively. The prepared samples are analysed from chemical-physical point of view by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectroscopy, UV–Vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (UV–Vis DRS), specific surface area measurements and scanning electron microscopy (FESEM). UV–Vis DRS spectra evidence that the co-doping of TiO₂ with N and Fe leads to the narrowing of the band gap value (2.7 eV) with respect to Fe-doped TiO₂ (2.8 eV) and N-doped TiO₂ (2.9–3 eV). XRD patterns show that photocatalysts are mainly in anatase phase and Fe and N ions are successfully incorporated into the TiO₂ lattice. The average crystallite size of Fe-N co-doped TiO₂ is slightly lower than the other samples and equal to about 7 nm and the specific surface area of the co-doped sample results to be 117 m² g⁻¹. Photocatalytic performances of all prepared samples are evaluated by analysing the degradation of Acid Orange 7 azo dye under visible light irradiation. Photocatalytic efficiency obtained using FeN co-doped TiO₂ strongly increases compared to undoped TiO₂, N-doped TiO₂ and Fe-doped TiO₂ photocatalysts. In detail, using the co-doped photocatalyst, dye discoloration and mineralization result equal to about 90 and 83% after 60 min of LEDs visible light irradiation, underlining the best performances of the FeN co-doped TiO₂ photocatalyst both in terms of treatment time and electric energy consumption.

Solar-Driven Artificial Carbon Cycle

Decay rates of energy of the 1D damped original nonlinear wave equation

We consider the decay rate of energy of the 1D damped original nonlinear wave equation. We first construct a new energy function. Then, employing the perturbed energy method and the generalized Young’s inequality, we prove that, with a general growth assumption on the nonlinear damping force near the origin, the decay rate of energy is governed by a dissipative ordinary differential equation. This allows us to recover the classical exponential, polynomial, or logarithmic decay rate for the linear, polynomial or exponentially degenerating damping force near the origin, respectively. Unlike the linear wave equation, the exponential decay rate constant depends on the initial data, due to the nonlinearity.
