Structural „memory effects” influencing decompositions of glucose alkoxide anions produced from monoterpene glycoside isomers in tandem mass spectrom…
1989
Isomeric glycoconjugates have been distinguished using desorption negative-ion chemical ionization/tandem mass spectrometry (DNCI–MS/MS). The structure of the leaving terpene influences the orientation of consecutive decompositions during collisionally activated decomposition (CAD) of [M–H]− ions which pass through a glucose alkoxide intermediate ion. This apparent „memory effect” can be rationalized by considering the production of anion-induced dipole complexes.
Micro-Raman spectroscopic characterization of a CR-39 detector.
2013
Characterization by micro-Raman spectroscopy of polymeric materials used as nuclear track detectors reveals physico-chemical and morphological information on the material's molecular structure. In this work, the nuclear track detector poly(allyl diglycol carbonate), or Columbia Resin .39 (CR-39), was characterized according to the fluence of alpha particles produced by a 226Ra source and chemical etching time. Therefore, damage of the CR-39 chemical structure due to the alpha-particle interaction with the detector was analyzed at the molecular level. It was observed that the ionization and molecular excitation of the CR-39 after the irradiation process entail cleavage of chemical bonds and…
Improved synthesis and application of conjugation-amenable polyols from d-mannose
2019
A series of polyhydroxyl sulfides and triazoles was prepared by reacting allyl and propargyl d-mannose derivatives with selected thiols and azides in thiol-ene and Huisgen click reactions. Conformational analysis by NMR spectroscopy proved that the intrinsic rigidity and linear conformation of the mannose derived polyol backbone is retained in the final click products in solution. Single crystal X-ray structure determination of one of the compounds prepared further verified that the linear conformation of the polyol segment is also retained in the solid state. In addition, an improved method for direct Barbier-type propargylation of unprotected d-mannose is reported. The new reaction protoc…
Tetrazine Click Chemistry for the Modification of 1-Hydroxy-1,1-methylenebisphosphonic Acids: Towards Bio-orthogonal Functionalization of Gold Nanopa…
2016
Inverse electron demand Diels-Alder (iEDDA) was evaluated for the functionalization of gold nanoparticles. The reaction was first modelled with the free coating molecule 1-hydroxy-1,1-methylenebisphosphonate bearing an alkene functionality (HMBPene). A model tetrazine 3,6-dipyridin-2-yl-1,2,4,5-tetrazine (pyTz) was used, kinetic of the reaction was calculated and coupling products were analysed by NMR and HRMS. The reaction was then transposed at the nanoparticle surface. Gold nanoparticles bearing an alkene functionality were obtained using a one-pot methodology with HMBPene and the tetrazine click chemistry was evaluated at their surface using pyTz. The successful coupling was assessed by…
Measurments of collisional line widths in the stimulated Raman Q-branch of the ν1 band of silane
1990
Self-broadened widths of 28SiH4 in the ν1Q-branch have been measured at room temperature (295 K) using high-resolution stimulated Raman Spectroscopy. These collisional widths have been obtained by fitting a super-position of Voigt profiles to the experimental spectra in the pressure range 28–154 Torr. No evidence for line mixing within the tetrahedral components of a Q(J) line has been found. The line broadening coefficients for J up to 13 depend weakly on the rotational quantum number. The mean value is 103.7 × 10−3 cm−1 atm−1.
Cationic and Zwitterionic Polymerizable SurfactantsQuaternary Ammonium Dialkyl Maleates. 2. Emulsion Polymerization of Styrene and Butyl Acrylate
1998
Polymerizable cationic and zwitterionic dialkyl maleates with different hydrophobic chain lengths (R = C10H21, C12H25, C16H33, C18H37) and different counterions (I, Br, HSO4) for the cationic hydrophilic part, as well as some similar surfactants, dialkyl succinates, were used in batch and seeded emulsion polymerization of styrene and butyl acrylate. All surfactants, when used in emulsion polymerization, provide good stability to the styrene/butyl acrylate latices. A styrene/butyl acrylate latex prepared with sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) was used as a reference. Some stability tests for latices were performed, and the glass transition temperatures, as well as the molecular weights of the pol…
Experimental and theoretical studies on the electronic spectra of indole-3-acetic acid and its anionic and protonated species
1991
Abstract The geometrical and electronic structure of indole-3-acetic acid (IAH) have been investigated using the MINDO/3 molecular orbital method, the geometries being optimized by Rinaldi's method. The UV spectrum of IAH has been recorded in different solvents. The corresponding spectra of IAH + 2 and IA − were also respectively obtained, from IAH in different H 2 SO 4 /water mixtures and NaOH solutions. The agreement of experimental spectra with the ones theoretically calculated by the CNDO/M-Cl method after optimization of the κ parameter, is discussed. The p K a values of IAH have also been determined from the IAH + 2 spectra and are compared with literature data.
Hydrophobically Modified Halloysite Nanotubes as Reverse Micelles for Water-in-Oil Emulsion.
2015
An easy strategy to obtain inorganic reverse micelles based on halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) and alkyltrimethylammonium bromides has been developed. The selective modification of the HNTs external surface with cationic surfactants endows to generate tubular nanostructures with a hydrophobic shell and a hydrophilic cavity. The influence of the surfactants alkyl chain on the HNTs functionalization degree has been investigated. The dynamic behavior of the surfactant/HNT hybrids in solvents with variable polarity has been correlated to their affinity toward hydrophobic media explored through partition experiments. The water-in-oil emulsion is able to solubilize copper sulfate, proving the incorpo…
Studies of the Ca4Mn3O10structure obtained using high pressure and high temperature
2002
An ideal n = 3 member of the group of Ruddlesden?Popper (RP) phases Ca4Mn3O10 was obtained by solid-state reaction under high pressure. This phase has been studied by transmission electron microscopy, convergent beam electron microscopy, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, and parallel electron energy-loss spectroscopy. The lattice parameters are derived as a = b = 0.37 nm and c = 2.69 nm with the space group I4/mmm, which is the space group of the ideal RP phase.
Characterization of gas phase aggregates of bis(2-ethylhexyl)sulfosuccinate (AOT) and divalent metal ions. Elimination of radical species in the deco…
2012
Structure and properties of even-electron anionic species formed by bis(2-ethylhexyl)sulfosuccinate (AOT) and divalent metal ions (MII) with stoichiometry [AOTMIICl2]– have been investigated by using electrospray ionization and different mass spectrometry techniques, such as high resolution, accurate mass measurements, collision-induced dissociation (CID) multiple-stage mass spectrometry. Owing to CID, eliminations of neutrals, mainly consisting in hydrochloric acid, 2-ethyl-1-hexene and 2-ethylhexanol, and an unexpected loss of an alkyl radical have been observed. The radical anions [C4HO6SMIICl]–• so produced have been characterized by MS3 experiments. Density functional theory calculatio…
