循环流化床(CFB)煤/焦气化反应的研究 Ⅰ.操作气速、固体循环速率对循环流化床气化反应的影响

报道了山西西山焦煤飞灰，在小型循环流化床气化反应器上，以二氧化碳为气化介质，在不同操作条件下（气速、固体循环速率）的气化反应。研究结果表明，ＣＯ出口浓度及碳转化率随着ＣＦＢ操作气速减小、固体颗粒循环速率的增加而增加。即在ＣＦＢ床中，提高气体、固体停留时间（床内固体颗粒浓度）有利于ＣＦＢ气化的进行。ＣＯ浓度及碳转化率沿床高的变化趋势与床内颗粒浓度分布一致。     

Highly diastereoselective chemoenzymatic synthesis of (2′R)- and (2′S)-2′-deoxy[2′-H]guanosines

In an effort to develop an efficient synthetic method of highly diastereoselective (2′R)- and (2′S)-2′-deoxy[2′-²H]guanosines, chemoenzymatic conversion was investigated. The synthesis of (2′R > 98% de)-2′-deoxy[2′-²H]guanosine was achieved by biological transdeoxyribosylation using (2′R > 98% de)-2′-deoxy[2′-²H]uridine, 2,6-diaminopurine, and Enterobacter aerogenes AJ-11125, followed by treatment with adenosine deaminase. (2′S > 98% de)-2′-Deoxy[2′-²H]guanosine was synthesized from (2′S > 98% de)-2′-deoxy[2′-²H]uridine and 2,6-diaminopurine using thymidine phosphorylase and purine nucleoside phosphorylase instead of E. aerogenes AJ-11125.     

The length of the polymethine chain and the spectral-luminescent properties of symmetrical cyanine dyes

The general characteristics that relate the length of the polymethine chain of symmetrical cyanine dyes to their spectral-luminescent properties depending on the electron-donor character of the heterocycles and the nature of the solvent are formulated. For various types of symmetrical cyanines, the Stokes shifts decrease with the elongation of the polymethine chain due to weakening of the vibronic interactions. The vinylene shifts of the band maxima are essentially constant and fall within the range 100 to 130 nm depending on the nature of the heterocycles and the solvent. When the polymethine chain elongates the fluorescence quantum yields first increase and then decrease. The greater the effective length of the heterocycle the stronger the decrease. The fluorescence decay occurring when the polymethine chain gets longer is associated with intensification of the internal conversion. For symmetrical cyanines, the changes in the shapes of the electronic bands (their width, asymmetry, excess, and fine structure) as the chain elongates are governed by the competing effects of the vibronic and intermolecular interactions. The former decrease as the chain lengthens, causing the narrowing of the absorption bands for the lower vinylogs. On the other hand, the latter increase as chain lengthens, which leads to broadening of the bands for the higher vinylogs. The higher the solvent nucleophilicity and the greater the deviation of the electron-donor ability of the heterocycle from the average value the greater the broadening. Any elongation of the polymethine chain of symmetrical cyanines causes only narrowing of the bands and an increase in the asymmetry, excess, and structuring in the fluorescence spectra, which, unlike the absorption spectra, is independent of the electron-donor character of the heterocycles and the nature of the solvent. These effects are caused by the fact that, in contrast to absorption, changes in the shape of emission bands with increasing chain length are governed predominantly by vibronic rather than by intermolecular interactions.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Effect of H2S-uptake on the conversion of cyclohexene on Ru- and Pd-promoted molybdena-alumina catalysts

The effect of H₂S on the activity and selectivity of catalysts (Ru/Al₂O₃, Pd/Al₂O₃ and Ru and Pd promoted molydena-alumina) was different (on differnt catalysts and different conversions of cyclohexene). Ru-containing catalysts showed higher sulfur sensitivities than the Pd-containing ones. The sequence of catalysts by their H₂S uptake related to mass of catalyst was PdMo/Al₂O₃RuMo/Al₂O₃Mo/Al₂O₃>Pd/Al₂O₃Ru/Al₂O₃.     

Evaluation of thermodynamic properties of irreversible protein thermal unfolding measured by DSC

Summary We assessed the applicability of the extrapolation procedure at infinite scanning rate to differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) data related to irreversible protein unfolding. To this aim, an array of DSC curves have been simulated on the basis of the Lumry-Eyring model N↔U→F. The results obtained confirmed that when the apparent equilibrium constant K_{app (T=T1/2)} is lower than 3, the application of the extrapolation procedure provides accurate thermodynamic parameters. Although this procedure applies only to monomeric proteins for which the Lumry-Eyring model is a reasonable approximation, it will hopefully contribute to increase the potential of DSC in obtaining reliable thermodynamic information regarding the folding/unfolding equilibrium.

Difference in Conversions Between Dimethyl Sulfide and Methanethiol in a Cold Plasma Environment

This study compared the conversion of two malodorous substances, dimethyl sulfide (CH₃SCH₃, DMS) and methanethiol (CH₃SH) in a cold plasma reactor. The DMS and CH₃SH were successfully destroyed at room temperature. DMS decomposed less than CH₃SH at the same conditions. In oxygen-free condition, CS₂ and hydrocarbons were the major products, while SO₂ and CO_x were main compounds in oxygen-rich environments. The DMS/Ar plasma yielded more hydrocarbons and less CS₂ than that of CH₃SH/Ar plasma. In the CH₃SH/O₂/Ar plasma, rapid formation of SO and CO resulted in the yields much more amounts of SO₂ and CO₂ than those in the DMS/O₂/Ar plasma; and remained only a trace of total hydrocarbons, CH₂O, CH₃OH, CS₂, and OCS. The major differences between the reaction mechanisms of DMS and CH₃SH were also proposed and discussed.     

Condensed tetrazolo-1,3,5-triazines. 4. Synthesis of salts of 5-aminotetrazolo[1,5-a]-1,3,5-triazin-7-one

2-Amino-4-azido-1,3,5-triazin-6(1H)-ones were synthesized by successive substitution of the trinitromethyl groups in 2-amino-4,6-bis(trinitromethyl)-1,3,5-triazines under the influence of azide and nitrite ions. Interaction of 2-amino-4-azido-1,3,5-triazin-6(1H)-ones with bases led to the azido-tetrazole tautomeric conversion give salts of 5-aminotetrazolo[1,5-a]-1,3,5-triazin-7-one. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 8, pp. 1211–1219, August, 2006.
