Copolymerization of ethylene and non-conjugated diene using homogenous catalyst

Ethylene and different amounts of 1,7-octadiene were copolymerized using the metallocene catalyst system ethylidene-bis(fluorenyl) zirconium dichloride and methylaluminoxane (MAO) at both 50 and 90 °C. The catalyst activity has slightly increased with the addition of low amounts of the diene in relation to the homopolymerization of ethylene. The obtained polymers were characterized according to their melting temperature (T_m) and crystallinity degree (x_c) by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Weight-average molecular weight (M_w) and polydispersity were determined by gel permeation chromatography (GPC). Diene contents in the copolymer were obtained through the FTIR spectroscopy. The results indicated that at polymerization temperature of 90 °C, crosslinking bonds in the obtained copolymers were low, differently from what was observed at 50 °C. The diene content in the copolymer achieved more than 3 mol% and the comonomer conversion was around 15%. Moreover, the obtained copolymers have M_w around 100,000 and large polydispersity.     

Polysaccharide differences between planktonic and biofilm-associated EPS from Pseudomonas fluorescens B52

The polysaccharides associated with free (planktonic) and surface-attached (biofilm) cells from cultures of Pseudomonas fluorescens strain B52 were compared. Variations in the attached matrix due to surface material (glass or stainless steel) were also analyzed. Two digestion methods were used to optimize the recoveries of sugars, uronic acids and acidic substituents. The yield of analyzable material after digestion reached 90% for the material associated to the biofilms, though only 20–30% for that bound to planktonic cells. The polysaccharide(s) in the biofilm had glucuronic and guluronic acids as main components, besides rhamnose, glucose and glucosamine. The proportion of glucuronic to guluronic acid was higher in the polysaccharide(s) found in biofilms formed on stainless steel than in those on glass.

Standard enthalpy of solution and formation of cesium chromate. Derived thermodynamic properties of the aqueous chromate,bichromate, and dichromate ions,alkali metal and alkaline earth chromates,and lead chromate

Calorimetric measurements of the enthalpy of solution of cesium chromate gave ΔH_soln = (7622 ± 24) cal_th mol^?1 for a dilution of Cs₂CrO₄·21128H₂O. This result, along with the enthalpy of dilution gave the standard enthalpy of solution, ΔH_soln^o = (7512 ± 31) cal_th mol^?1, whence the standard enthalpy of formation, ΔH_f⁰(Cs₂CrO₄, c, 298.15 K), was calculated to be ?(341.78 ± 0.46) kcal_th mol^?1. Recomputed thermodynamic data for the formation of the other alkali metal chromates have been tabulated. From their solubilities and enthalpies of solution, the standard entropies, S⁰(298 K), of BaCrO₄ and PbCrO₄ were estimated to be (38.9 ± 0.9) and (43.7 ± 1.2) cal_th K^?1 mol^?1, respectively. There is evidence that ΔH_f⁰(SrCrO₄, c, 298.15 K) may be in error. Thermochemical, solubility, and equilibrium data, have been combined to update the thermodynamic properties of the aqueous chromate (CrO₄^2?), bichromate (HCrO₄^?), and dichromate (Cr₂O₇^2?) ions. The new values at 298.15 K are as follows:

Two novel 25,27-dihydroxy-26,28-bis(3-phenylthiapropxy)-calix[4]arene(3) and 25,27-dihydroxy-26,28-bis(3-phenylthiapropoxy)-5,11,17,23-tetra-tert-butylcalix[4] arene (4) were synthesized for the evaluation of their ion-selectivity in ion-selective electrodes(ISEs).ISEs based on 3 and 4 as neutral ionophores were prepared,and their selectivity coefficients for Ag^ (lg KAg,M^pot)were investigated against other alkali metal,alkaline-earth metal,aluminum,thallium(Ⅰ）,Lead and some transition metal ions using the separate solution method (SSM).These ISEs showed excellent Ag^ seletivity over most of the interfering cations examined,except for Hg^2 and Fe^2 having relative smaller interference(lg KAg,M^pot≤-2.1).

Cleide M. F. Soares  Heizir F. de Castro  Juliana E. Itako  Flavio F. De Moraes  Gisella M. Zanin 《Applied biochemistry and biotechnology》2005,123(1-3):845-859

Candida rugosa lipase was entrapped in silica sol-gel particles prepared by hydrolysis of methyltrimethoxysilane and assayed by p-nitrophenyl palmitate hydrolysis, as a function of pH and temperature, giving pH optima of 7.8 (free enzyme) and 5.0–8.0 (immobilized enzyme). The optimum temperature for the immobilized enzyme (50–55°C) was 19°C higher than for the free enzyme. Thermal, operational, and storage stability were determined with n-butanol and bytyric acid, giving at 45°C a half-life 2.7 times greater for the immobilized enzyme; storage time was 21 d at room temperature. For ester synthesis, the optimum temperature was 47°C, and high esterification conversions were obtained under repeated batch cycles (half-life of 138 h).

A new polyphenol modified electrode containing an anchored ruthenium complex and its use in electrocatalytic oxidation of organic substrates     

Juliana R. Steter  José O.S. PontólioM.I.C.F. Costa  J.R. Romero 《Polyhedron》2007

This work describes the preparation of a new modified electrode containing a ruthenium complex (cis-aquadimethylbipyridyltriphenylphosphineruthenium II), bonded to a stable polyphenol film. This modified electrode promotes the fast electrocatalytic oxidation of safrol (5-allyl-benzo[1,3]dioxole) and isosafrol (5-propenyl-benzo[1,3]dioxole), giving two interesting products benzo[1,3]dioxole-5-carbaldehyde (piperonal) and 3-benzo[1,3]dioxol-5-yl-propenal respectively, with good yields. The electrode preparation can be carried out at a potential range which does not interfere on the anchored electroactive ruthenium complex, but it allows for the phenol oxidation to occur and therefore polymerize forming the polyphenol film. The catalytic character of this modified electrode is showed by its high turnover numbers. The procedure to isolate the products is very simple.

The last step of the production of four phthalimide-derived acids, designed to act as antiasthma drugs, was performed by enzymatic hydrolysis of the respective methyl or ethyl esters. The esters 4-ethyl-[2-(1,3-dioxo-1,3-dihydro-2-isoindoylyl)]-phenoxyacetic methyl ester (PHT-MET), 4-ethyl-[2-(1,3-dioxo-1,3-dihydro-2-isoindoylyl)]-phenoxyacetic ethyl ester, 4-(1,3-dioxo-1,3-dihydro-2-isoindoylyl)-phenoxyacetic ethyl ester, and 2-(1,3-dioxo-1, 3-dihydro-2-isoindoylyl)-phenoxyacetic ethyl ester were hydrolyzed by immobilized lipase. The enzymatic reaction could be used only to produce the desired 4-substituted compounds. The best result that was found to hydrolysis of PHT-MET, and, therefore, that ester was selected for optimization experiments in a three-phase system. Reactions were performed with solid biocatalyst (Lipozyme® RM IM), organic solvent phase (ethyl acetate), and aqueous phase (saturated Na₂CO₃ solution). To optimize the reaction conditions, an experimental design optimization procedure was used. The variables studied were the amount of enzyme, the temperature, and the volume of the aqueous solution. Time course experiments were then performed for different initial enzyme concentrations (0.5, 0.9, and 1.4 U_H/mL of solvent). The optimized reaction conditions found were 20 mg of Lipozyme (0.9 U_H/mL_solvent) and 5.0 mL of Na₂CO_3(sat) at 40°C for 6 h.
