An analytical solution of a newly proposed peak broadening equation and extension of polydispersities to higher molecular weight averages in size exclusion chromatography (SEC)

Summary Herein is reported an analytical solution to the peak broadening or peak dispersion/flattening equation based on the recently proposed Instrumental Spreading Shape Function and its application to correction for imperfect resolution (inadequate peak separation and/or excessive peak broadening) for higher molecular weight averages. The relationship of these higher MW averages with the familiar Weight Average and number average molecular weights is also discussed. Criteria for perfect resolution are specified and a true molecular weight calibration curve is accordingly defined.

Unusual peak defocusing in capillary GC on hexakis(2,6-diO-pentyl-3-O-acetyl)-α-cyclodextrin stationary phase

An unusual peak defocusing effect influencing chromatographic performance over a limited range of elution temperatures is described for hexakis(2,6-di-O-pentyl-3-O-acetyl)-α-cyclodextrin stationary phase. Since this phenomenon is likely to be dependent on minor details of the cyclodextrin molecule, full assignment of the ¹H- and ¹³C-NMR-spectra are given.     

Synthesis and Electrospray Ionization Mass Spectra of N-（1,3, 2-Dioxaphosphorinan-2-ylmethyl）thiophosphoramidates

N-（1,3,2-Dioxaphosphorinan-2-ylmethyl）thiophosphoramidates were synthesized and determined by NMR spectra and positive ion electrospray ionization mass spectrometry （ESI-MS） in conjunction with tandem mass spectrometry （MS/MS）. The fragmentation pathways were investigated. The results show that these characteristic ions in ESI mass spectra are useful in the structural determination of N-（1,3,2-dioxaphosphorinan-2-ylmethyl）- thiophosphoramidates.     

RATE OF INTRA-MOLECULAR CONTACT FORMATION IN SHORT TWO-DIMENSIONAL COMPACT POLYMERS CHAINS

It is important to know the rate of intra-molecular contact formation in proteins in order to understand how proteins fold clearly. Here we investigate the rate of intra-molecular contact formation in short two-dimensional compact polymer chains by calculating the probability distribution p(r) of end-to-end distance r using the enumeration calculation method and HP model on two-dimensional square lattice. The probability distribution of end-to-end distance p(r) of short two-dimensional compact polymers chains may consist of two parts, i.e. p(r) = p1(r) p2(r), where p1(r) and p2(r) are different for small r. The rate of contact formation decreases monotonically with the number of bonds N, and the rate approximately conforms to the scaling relation of k(N) ∝ N-α. Here the value of α increases with the contact radius a and it also depends on the percentage of H (hydrophobic) residues in the sequences of compact chains and the energy parameters of εHH, εHP and εPP . Some comparisons of theoretical predictions with experimental results are also made. This investigation may help us to understand the protein folding.     

Synthesis,Crystal Structures and Properties of Two Novel Co（Ⅱ） and Cd（Ⅱ） Complexes of N-AcetyI-L-glutamic Acid and Imidazole Ligands

Two novel complexes {[Co（A-glu）（Im）2]·0.5H2O}n （1） and [Cd（A-glu）（Im）3]n （2） （H2A-glu=N-acetyl-L-glutamic acid, Im=imidazole） have been synthesized from the reaction of H2A-glu with Co（CH3COO）2·4H2O or Cd（CH3COO）2·2H2O in the presence of Im. Both of the complexes display different coordination environment and similar one-dimensional chain structure. The magnetic susceptibility measurements for 1 show a weak antiferromagnetic interaction between two cobalt（Ⅱ） ions bridged by A-glu ligand. The complex 2 exhibits an intense fluorescent emission in solid state at room temperature.     

Polarographische Untersuchungen an Komplexbildnern in Abh?ngigkeit von der Stabilit?t ihrer Komplexe

Zusammenfassung Das polarographische Verhalten der Komplexliganden PAN, PAR und TAR in ihren Komplexen wurde untersucht: Das Halbstufenpotential hängt sowohl vom pK_D- und pH-Wert ab als auch von Komplexstruktur, Lösungsmittel, Leitelektrolyt, Tropfgeschwindigkeit und Spannungsvorschub. Einflüsse der Metallionenkonzentration konnten nicht beobachtet werden. Aus den Meßergebnissen wurde eine Gleichung abgeleitet, die unmittelbar auf robuste Komplexe angewendet werden kann.

Polarographic investigations on complexing agents in dependence on the stability of their complexesPart II

Summary The polarographic behaviour of the ligands PAN, PAR, TAR in their complexes was investigated: The halfway potential depends on pK_D- and pH-value and also on complex structure, solvents supporting electrolyte, dropping time and voltage feed. An influence of the metal concentration has not been observed. From the experimental results an equation has been derived, which can be applied directly to robust complexes.

Spectrophotometric Determination of Acidity Constants of 4‐(2‐Pyridylazo) Resorcinol in Various Micellar Media Solutions

Dissociation equilibria of 4‐(2‐pyridylazo) resorcinol (PAR) in aqueous micellar solutions were determined spectrophotometrically at 25 °C and at the constant ionic strength I = 0.1 M KNO₃. For this purpose, the effect of nonionic (Brij‐35, Triton X‐100, Triton X‐114, Triton X‐405), and anionic (SDS) surfactants on the absorption spectra of PAR at different pH values was studied. Results show that the pK_a values and pure spectra of each species of PAR are influenced by percentages of a neutral and an anionic surfactant such as Brij‐35, Triton X‐100, Triton X‐114, Triton X‐405 and SDS, respectively, added to the solution of this reagent.     

Reactions of oxidizing radicals with 2- and 3-aminopyridines: a pulse radiolysis study

Reactions of OH radicals and some one-electron oxidants with 2-aminopyridine (2-AmPy) and 3-aminopyridine (3-AmPy) were studied in aqueous solutions using pulse radiolysis technique. The OH adduct of 2-AmPy at pH 9 has an absorption maximum at 360 nm along with a weak absorption band in the visible region and was found to be reactive with oxygen. The rate constant for its reaction with O₂ was determined to be 1.0×10⁸ dm³ mol⁻¹ s⁻¹. At pH 4 also, the OH adduct of 2-AmPy has an absorption band at 360 nm. However, there are differences in the absorption at other wavelengths. From the plot of ΔOD vs. pH at 340 nm, the pK_a of the OH adduct was determined to be 6.5. Among the specific oxidants, only SO₄^−√ radicals were able to oxidize 2-AmPy. In the case of 3-aminopyridine (3-AmPy), the transient species formed by OH radical reaction at pH 9 has an absorption maximum at 410 nm with shoulder bands on both the sides. Its absorption spectrum at pH 4 was different indicating the existence of a pK value for the OH adduct. pK_a of 3-AmPy-OH radical adduct species was evaluated to be 5.7. This adduct species was also found to be reactive with oxygen (k=7.6×10⁶ dm³ mol⁻¹ s⁻¹). Specific one-electron oxidants like N₃^√, Br₂^−√ C₂^−√ and SO₄^−√ were able to oxidize 3-AmPy indicating that it is easier to oxidize 3-AmPy as compared to 2-AmPy.
