Polysubstituted triphenylenes with active groups. Molecular parameters, synthesis, structure, and mesomorphism

Molecular parameters of hexaalkoxytriphenylenes with different substituents on the periphery of the triphenylene nucleus of known and hypothetical structures are calculated. The probability of a discophase for compounds of this series is estimated from molecular parameters. Several compounds of this series having polar groups (NO₂, NH₂) in the 1 position of the triphenylene nucleus have been synthesized. The compounds synthesized were investigated by thermopolarizing microscopy and X-ray diffraction analysis. The data on the mesomorphism of the new compounds are in good agreement with our prediction that alkoxytriphenylenes with polar groups have a discophase. It is established that introduction of an electron-accepting group at position 1 of the triphenylene nucleus expands the temperature range of existence of the discophase to room temperature. On the contrary, introduction of an electron-donating group narrows this interval. Compounds of this series presumably have a hexagonal columnar structure. Ivanovo State University.

Supramolecular Assembly Formation in Monolayers of tert-Butyl Substituted Copper Phthalocyanine and Tetrabenzotriazaporphin

The effect is studied of the layer formation conditions on the molecular arrangement of copper tetra- tert-butyl phthalocyanine (CuPctBu₄) and copper tetra- tert-butyl tetrabenzotriazaporphin (CuThptBu₄) at the air–water interface. The decrease in initial surface concentration of these compounds is shown to affect the molecular orientation, as indicated by the increase in the area per molecule. The data are interpreted in terms of formation of CuPctBu₄ and CuThptBu₄ monolayers with a face-on molecular arrangement when the initial surface concentration is sufficiently small (N less than 1.6 × 10^–7 mole/m² for CuPctBu₄ and N less than 4 × 10^–7 mole/m² for CuThptBu₄) and changes in the molecular orientation to edge-on when the N values are higher. It is emphasized that the edge-on orientation on the water surface is not only a molecular but a collective property of the azaporphyrine supramolecular assembly.     

Heterocyclic compounds from 3-(4-phenyl) benzoyl propionic acid

3-(4-Phenyl) benzoyl propionic acid was used as the starting material for the synthesisof furanones (2), pyrrolinones (5), pyridazinones (7), benzoxazinones (8) and quinazolinones (9-11). The behaviour of the derivatives of furanones and benzoxazinones toward different nucleophiles is reported.     

Adenosine A2A receptor agonists: CoMFA-based selection of the most predictive conformation

A step-wise comparative molecular field analysis (CoMFA)-based procedure was applied to a series of 51 2-oxyadenosines in order to select the most predictive conformation for binding to A2A adenosine receptor (AR). The highest correlation and predictive power were found for conformers with side chain at 2nd position oriented in the direction opposite to the exocyclic amino group on the adenine ring (torsion N1C2OR = 120 degrees) and fully extended. The interaction of ligand and receptor is under steric and electrostatic control. The steric contribution is of a greater importance for the predictivity than the electrostatic one. Hydrophobicity of the compounds investigated does not affect significantly either the affinity to A2A AR, nor the predictivity of the models.     

Influence of vanadium doping on the behavior of YBa_2Cu_3O_7-y

YBa2Cu3-xVxO7-y(x=0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5 and 0.6) superconductors have been prepared. X-ray diffraction shows that the system remains orthorhombic for all compositions studied, but for x > 0.4 V2O5 was detected as an impurity phase. Substitution of V5+ for Cu2+ occurs in the Cu(2) sites on the Cu(2)-O planes. The introduction of the high valence element, vanadium, produces the extra free-electrons. These electrons recombine with the positive carrier of the system. It makes depression of the mobility and the Hall number of YBa2Cu3-xVxO7-v and also results in a depression of TC.     

CHEMILUMINESCENCE AND FLUORESCENCE OF THE EUROPIUM IONS-ADENINE NUCLEOTIDES SYSTEM AND ITS POSSIBLE BIOLOGICAL SIGNIFICANCE

Abstract— Chemiluminescence of the Eu(II)/Eu(III)-adenine nucleotide-H₂O₂ system and fluorescence of the Eu(III)-adenosine triphosphate system have been investigated. The spectral distribution of the chemiluminescence emission has shown an occurrence of three main bands (Λ=470–480,590–620 and ca. 700 nm). The energy transfer process from the adenosine triphosphate molecules to the Eu(III) ions has been observed in the fluorescence spectrum. The examined chemiluminescence and fluorescence spectra show that these both kinds of emission originate from the ⁵ D _***τ⁷F_*** ( n =1–4) transitions in the Eu(III) ions.     

微米铜丝的低温力学性能测试

针对纤维材料变温环境力学性能测试的需要,在华中科技大学研制的纤维材料试验机的基础上引入了温控装置,从而实现纤维材料在高低温环境下的力学性能测试。采用该装置对不同直径微米铜丝在不同温度、不同拉伸速率条件下的力学性能开展实验研究,测试结果表明弹性模量和抗拉强度随温度的降低而线性增加,屈服强度的变化不太明显。另外,低温环境下微米铜丝的力学性能表现出与其直径相关的尺度效应,而这一现象在常温下一直没有观测到。最后,还研究了拉伸速率对微米铜丝的力学性能影响,结果表明,在现有装置的许用范围之内,拉伸速率对其力学性能的影响不大。     

An adaptive control scheme for a continuous plant under Known output delay, unmodelled dynamics, and input saturation

This paper deals with robustness of adaptive control of continuoussystems subject to known output delay, input saturation, unmodelledlinear dynamics, and bounded disturbances. A simple gradient-typealgorithm with a relative deadzone is used. The relative deadzoneis built with an estimated contribution of the unmodelled dynamicsto the system output. The basic tool used for stability androbustness analysis is Gronwall's lemma.
