Synthesis, characterization and thermal properties of nine quaternary dialkyldiaralkylammonium chlorides
2006
Abstract Nine R 2 R 2 ′ N + Cl − (R=benzyl, 2-methylbenzyl, 3-methylbenzyl, 4-methylbenzyl, 2-phenylethyl or 3-phenylpropyl; R′=ethyl or methyl) quaternary dialkyldiaralkylammonium chlorides were synthesized by treating dimethylformamide or diethylformamide with non-substituted or substituted arylalkyl (aralkyl) halide in the presence of sodium carbonate. The 1H NMR, 13C NMR spectroscopy, mass spectroscopy and elemental analysis were used to characterize the synthesized products. The crystal structures of six compounds were determined by X-ray single crystal diffraction. Four of the compounds crystallized in monoclinic space groups C2/c and P21/c (or P21/n), one in triclinic space group P−1…
Assessment of a single-acquisition imaging sequence for oxygen-sensitive (3)He-MRI.
2001
MRI of the lungs using hyperpolarized helium-3 (3He) allows the determination of intrapulmonary oxygen partial pressures (pO2). The need to separate competing processes of signal loss has hitherto required two different imaging series during two different breathing maneuvers. In this work, a new imaging strategy to measure pO2 by a single series of consecutive scans is presented. The feasibility of the method is demonstrated in three healthy human volunteers. Maps and histograms of intrapulmonary pO2 are calculated. Changes in the oxygen concentration of the inhaled gas mixture are well reproduced in the histograms. Monte Carlo (MC) simulations of the temporal evolution of 3He hyperpolariza…
Properties of methyl radical trapped in amorphous SiO2 and in natural SiO2-clathrate Melanophlogite
2013
Abstract We report an experimental investigation by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) on methyl radical (CH3 ) observed in γ-ray irradiated high-purity amorphous silicon dioxide (a-SiO2) and in a polycrystalline sample of Melanophlogite, a rare natural form of SiO2-clathrate. From the analysis of the EPR spectra we estimate the correlation time of the hindered rotational motion of CH3 molecules at T = 77 K in the two different materials. This physical quantity gives a quantitative measure of the freedom of motion of CH3 molecules trapped in the two solid systems, putting forward relevant information on the properties of the cavities/interstices in which the radicals are confined. In par…
Magnetic field-induced alignment of molecular rotor-shaped cyclophanes
2010
Molecular pinwheels consisting of dipolar substituted cyclophanes in solution can function as free microscopic rotors in the presence of a homogeneous static magnetic field B and a circularly polarized electric field E rotating on a plane containing B. Owing to the high magnetic anisotropy of [26](1,2,3,4,5,6)cyclophane and [36](1,2,3,4,5,6)cyclophane biased by strong ring currents, ∼1 in 105 molecules are expected to align with the C6 symmetry axis perpendicular to a magnetic field of 21 T. The magnetic-field-controlled alignment of rotor-shaped cyclophanes is insignificantly affected by nonpolar solvents, for example, toluene.
Spectral investigation of spin echo emission
1993
Abstract The spectral content of the echo radiation emitted after a two-pulse sequence is measured in a two-level spin system. The spectral profiles exhibit maxima and zeroes of spectral density depending on the exciting sequence parameters. A calculation based on a vectorial model relates the zeroes to those packets that happen to be transparent to the second (refocusing) pulse. Moreover we report on a new spectral narrowing effect which we tentatively ascribe to the instantaneous diffusion.
Determination of the Relative Stereochemistry of Flexible Organic Compounds by Ab Initio Methods: Conformational Analysis and Boltzmann-Averaged GIAO…
2002
Ab initio calculations at the Hartree-Fock level with full-geometry optimization using the 6-31G(d) basis set, and GIAO (gauge including atomic orbitals) 1 3 C NMR chemical shifts, are presented here as a support in the study of the stereochemistry of low-polar organic compounds having an openchain structure. Four linear stereoisomers, fragments of a natural product previously characterized by experimental 1 3 C NMR spectra, which possesses three stereogenic centers, 11 carbon atoms, and 38 atoms in total, were considered. Conformational searches, by empirical force-field molecular dynamics, pointed out the existence of 8-13 relevant conformers per stereoisomer. Thermochemical calculations …
Tautomerism and the Protonation/Deprotonation of Isocytosine in Liquid- and Solid-States Studied by NMR Spectroscopy and Theoretical Calculations
2011
Isocytosine crystallizes as a 1:1 ratio of two tautomers in a manner similar to that of the guanine and cytosine pairs in DNA. The solid-state NMR chemical shifts of crystalline neutral isocytosine, the sodium salt of isocytosine, and those of isocytosine hydrochloride were measured and related to the NMR parameters in aqueous and organic solutions. The experimental chemical shifts were compared with those calculated by three different methods: (1) calculations on isolated molecules, (2) calculations on isocytosine clusters of various sizes, and (3) infinite crystal calculations, that is, the gauge-including projector-augmented wave (GIPAW) method. The data obtained with the GIPAW method we…
1H,13C and17O NMR study of aromatic ring-substituted monochloro- and monobromo-(E)-3-phenylpropenals
1991
Trans-Cinnamaldehydes (CAs) or o-, m- and p-X-(E)-3-phenylpropenals; (X = Cl or Br) were synthesized and their 1H, 13C and 17O NMR spectra were measured, assigned and analysed. The long-range benzylic couplings are discussed in terms of the conformational characteristics of the related styrene systems. The 1H, 13C and 17O NMR substituent chemical shifts of the CA derivatives were compared with those of styrene and explained by the π-electron delocalization in the conjugated CCCO bond system of CA.
