Photochemical reduction of organic electron acceptors in aqueous solutions

Conclusions The formation of OH radicals in the photoreduction of aqueous solutions of anthraquinonesulfonic acid as the result of electron transfer from water (OH^–) to a triplet molecule has been demonstrated.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 11, pp. 2615–2617, November, 1969.     

Thermodynamics of condensation of phthalonitrile with m-phenylenediamine

Conclusions The reaction of phthalonitrile condensation with m-phenylenediamine is thermodynamically allowed at temperatures from 250° to 500°K, and its equilibrium is almost completely shifted toward the formation of the macroheterocycle.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 4, pp. 779–787, April, 1984.     

Complete characterization of the (D2O)2 ground state: high Ka rotation-tunneling levels

We report the observation of extensive a- and c-type rotation-tunneling (RT) spectra of (D2O)2 for Ka = 0-4. These data allow quantification of molecular constants and tunneling splittings for a number of previously unobserved RT states of (D2O)2. The vibrational ground state has thus been characterized to energies as high as those of some of the intermolecular vibrations, and we present the first test of the VRT(ASP-W) potential at these high Ka states.     

Benzindoles

A large amount of structural similarity between 4,5-benzindole and naphthalene and between 6,7-benzindole and indole was detected on a basis of a comparison of the absorption, fluorescence, and phosphorescence spectra of isomeric benzindoles with the spectra of indole and naphthalene. A great analogy between indole and 6,7-benzindole as compared with 4,5-benzindole is also observed during the formation of hydrogen bonds, as indicated by the shift in the absorption band of the NH group in the IR spectra of the investigated compounds in the presence of various proton acceptors.     

Determination of glucose and lactose in food products with the use of biosensors based on Berlin blue

The immobilization of enzymes into polyelectrolyte membranes with the use of organic solvents was applied to the development of the biosensing elements of biosensors. The following domestically produced preparations were used: the enzymes glucose oxidase and β-galactosidase and a perfluorosulfonated polymer. The compositions of mono-and bienzymic polyelectrolyte membranes were optimized. The glucose and lactose biosensors based on Berlin blue (as a signal transducer) and polyelectrolyte membranes exhibited high sensitivity, low detection limits, and fast response. The results of the analysis of milk whey in a flow-injection system that included biosensors completely correlated with measurement data obtained by a standard chromatographic technique.
