UV-Photometrische Analyse kationisch erzeugter Polystyrole, 2. Quantitative Bestimmung von Endgruppen in Polystyrolen, dargestellt mit Acylperchlorat…
1984
Acyl perchlorates generated in styrene without a solvent by acyl chlorides and silver perchlorate gave polystyrenes with covalently bonded acyl groups. In order to gain secured values their number average relative molecular masses (Mn) were determined by different methods. The polystyrenes could be hydrogenated with hydrogen and Raney nickel at room temperature and under atmospheric pressure without attacking the phenolic nuclei. In addition IR data and a UV absorption at 294 nm of the polystyrenes revealed the presence of and olefinic bond, which was also found in a polystyrene obtained by polymerisation with perchloric acid. Also the quantitative evaluation of the hydrogeneation by UV abs…
Synthesis of hyacinth, vanilla, and blossom orange fragrances: the benefit of using zeolites and delaminated zeolites as catalysts
2004
The synthesis of phenylacetaldehyde glycerol acetals, 2-benzyl-4-hydroxymethyl-1,3-dioxolane (1), 2-benzyl-5-hydroxy-1,3-dioxane (2), and vanillin propylene glycol acetal (2-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-4-methyl-1,3-dioxolane) (3) which are flavoring compounds with hyacinth and vanilla scent fragrances, have been carried out successfully by acetalization of phenylacetaldehyde and vanillin with glycerol and propylene glycol, respectively, using toluene as solvent and zeolite catalysts whose adsorption properties have been optimized. However, in the case of a larger size acetal such as 2-acetonaphthone propylene glycol acetal (4) with blossom orange scent, geometrical constraints make the diff…
ChemInform Abstract: Diaryldistyrylpyrazines: Solvatochromic and Acidochromic Fluorophores.
2014
Diaryldimethylpyrazines are the starting materials for the synthesis of C2-symmetric donor- or acceptor-substituted distyrylpyrazines. The optical properties of these cruciform-shaped dyes are dominated by the distyrylpyrazine units; the photophysics is controlled by the styryl substitution, the diaryl substituents on the central pyrazine only having a small effect. Protonation occurs on the pyrazine and/or lateral amines or azines, thereby altering the absorption and emission properties. Hypso- and bathochromism as well as fluorescence quenching depend on the nature of the terminal substituent. This, and a significant positive solvatochromism of the fluorescence, allow optical sensing of t…
Theoretical characterization of the absorption spectra of phenanthrene and its radical cation
2003
The vertical absorption spectra of phenanthrene and its radical cation have been studied theoretically by means of a multiconfigurational second-order perturbation approach. Singlet-singlet transition energies and oscillator strengths, and singlet-triplet excitation energies have been studied in the absorption spectrum of phenanthrene up to 6 eV. The absorption spectrum of the pehnanthrene radical cation has been computed up to 3.4 eV. The results obtained confirm previous assignments and also lead to new interpretations of the main features of the spectra of these systems.
Optical absorption of zinc selenide doped with cobalt (Zn1−xCoxSe) under hydrostatic pressure
2000
Abstract The optical absorption of the diluted magnetic semiconductor Zn1−xCOxSe (x = 0.02) has been measured at room temperature under hydrostatic pressure up to 14GPa in a membrane diamond-anvil cell. We found two absorption features: (i) an absorption structure in the energy range 1.6−1.8eV, with a negligible pressure shift (i.e., 0.45 ± 0.05 meV/GPa) which we have identified as the Co2+(3d7) internal transition 4A2(F)→+4T1(P) and (ii) an onset in the energy range 2−2.7eV which redshifts with pressure (−8.1±0.6meV/GPa). We have attributed such absorption edge to charge transfer between the ZnSe valence band and the Co2+(3d7) levels.
Polyfurfuryl alcohol composite as adsorbent of polychlorinated biphenyls and pyrethroid insecticides
2007
Abstract Composites from furfuryl alcohol and silica gel were prepared in dichloromethane using trifluoroacetic acid as catalyst and characterized by means of thermogravimetric analysis, transmission electron microscopy and nitrogen adsorption–desorption isotherms. The polymer content in the composites ranged between 19.5% and 32.9%. The capability to adsorb polychlorinated biphenyls and pyrethroid insecticides was tested for composite samples containing different percentages of polymer. Pyrethroids are retained almost totally by composites containing around 24–33% of polymer, while recovery of PCBs close to 80% is obtained with all the composites. No selectivity between compounds of the sa…
Influence of the preparation method on the thiophene HDS activity of silica supported CoMo catalysts
2002
Abstract The effect of the preparation method of CoMo/SiO2 catalysts with and without sodium ions, on the hydrodesulfurization (HDS) of thiophene was investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and N2 physisorption (BET). The samples were prepared by total sol–gel route, by classic wetness impregnation and by co-impregnation, in the presence of nitrilotriacetic acid (NTA), of commercial and sol–gel prepared silica. The influence of sodium ions added to the sol mixture and to the silica before the impregnation with Co and Mo salt solution, was also considered. The presence of sodium favoured the phase transition of amorphous silica to cristobalite with con…
Cucurbit[n]uril-capped upconversion nanoparticles as highly emissive scaffolds for energy acceptors.
2015
Spontaneous adsorption of cucurbit[n]uril CB[n] (n = 6, 7, and 8) on the surface of naked upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs), in particular, NaYF4:Er3+(2%),Yb3+(18%) gave rise to UCNP@CB[n] exclusion complexes. These complexes proved to be highly stable as well as highly emissive under near-infrared excitation. By using two tricyclic basic dyes (specifically, methylene blue and pyronin Y) as a proof of concept, we demonstrate that the UCNP@CB[n] (n = 6, 7) nanohybrids can form exclusion complexes with this type of dyes via the CB carbonyl free portal, i.e., UCNP@CB@dye hybrids, thus making it possible to locate a high concentration of the dyes close to the UCNP and, consequently, leading to…
X-ray absorption near-edge structure of GaN with high Mn concentration grown on SiC.
2009
By means of x-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) several Ga(1-x)Mn(x)N (0.03x0.09) layers have been analyzed. The Mn-doped GaN samples consisted of different epilayers grown by molecular beam epitaxy on [0001] SiC substrates. The low mismatch between GaN and SiC allows for a good quality and homogeneity of the material. The measurements were performed in fluorescence mode around both the Ga and Mn K edges. All samples studied present a similar Mn ionization state, very close to 2+, and tetrahedral coordination. In order to interpret the near-edge structure, we have performed ab initio calculations using the full potential linear augmented plane wave method as implemented in the Wien…
Interpretation of the electronic absorption spectrum of free base porphin by using multiconfigurational second-order perturbation theory
1998
Abstract Multiconfigurational second-order perturbation (CASPT2) calculations have been performed on the low-lying optically allowed valence excited states of the free base porphin molecule in order to assign the four lowest bands of the spectrum. The low-lying triplet states have also been characterized. A basis set of the atomic natural orbital type of split-valence plus polarization quality for first-row atoms has been employed. Polarization functions are important for an accurate description of the transitions. These CASPT2 results provide a consistent picture of the experimental spectrum. Each band of the spectrum up to 4.5 eV is composed of a pair of states, which become degenerate in…
