The application of NMR and MS methods for detection of adulteration of wine,fruit juices,and olive oil. A review

This review covers two important techniques, high resolution nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and mass spectrometry (MS), used to characterize food products and detect possible adulteration of wine, fruit juices, and olive oil, all important products of the Mediterranean Basin. Emphasis is placed on the complementary use of SNIF-NMR (site-specific natural isotopic fractionation nuclear magnetic resonance) and IRMS (isotope-ratio mass spectrometry) in association with chemometric methods for detecting the adulteration.     

Two phenanthroline hydro­chlorides

The crystal and molecular structures of two phenanthroline hydro­chlorides have been determined at 173 K. 1,10‐Phenanthrolin‐1‐ium chloride, C₁₂H₉N₂⁺·Cl^?, crystallizes in two stacks of exactly planar mol­ecules. Both stacks are approximately parallel to the (02) plane and the planes composing the different stacks enclose an angle of 13.29 (3)°. Tris(1,10‐phenanthrolin‐1‐ium) dichloride (hydrogen chloride) chloride chloro­form solvate, 3C₁₂H₉N₂⁺·2Cl^?·HCl·Cl^?·CHCl₃, displays an interesting network of Cl^? mediated hydrogen bonds between the two different phenanthrolinium moieties and between a phenanthrolinium and the chloro­form solvate. In addition, a hydrogen bond between the HCl and the third Cl^? ion is formed. The C—N—C angle at the protonated N atoms is, in all phenanthrolinium units of both structures, significantly larger than the C—N—C angle at the non‐protonated N atom.     

Experimentelle Untersuchungen zur Ionisierung und Umladung von Alkanolen durch 6-25 keV Wasserstoffionen

Experimental Investigations of Ionisation and Charge-transfer of Alcohols by 6-25 keV Hydrogen Ions Ionisation and charge-transfer cross sections were measured for the interaction of H⁺, H and H ions (in the energy range 6-25 keV) with alcohols (methanol-octanol). The cross sections depend significantly on the target molecular structure like molecular length, ionisation potential, polarizability and atomic bonds in the target molecule.     

Anwendung der GRYZINSKY-Theorie zur Berechnung der Ionisierungs- und Umladungwirkungsquerschnitte für die Wechselwirkung von Wasserstoffionen und Alkanolmolekülen

An Application of GRYZINSKY -theory to Calculations of Ionisation and Charge-transfer Cross Sections for the Interaction of Hydrogen Ions with Alcohol Molecules Ionisation and charge-transfer cross sections were calculated for the interaction of H⁺, H and H ions (energy range 5-25 keV) with alcohols (methanol-butanol). A modified GRYZINSKY approximation is used for the calculation of the cross sections. The calculated values have been compared with experimental determined cross sections. The agreement between experimental results and theoretical results is satisfactory.
