用核磁共振法研究了亚胺型杂卓1和烯胺型杂卓2在不同质子溶剂—甲醇、乙醇、叔丁醇、乙酸及CF3CO2D的DMSO-d6溶液中的稳定性及互变异构.结果表明,烯胺型杂卓2在上述溶剂中稳定,亚胺型杂卓1在酸性较弱的质子溶剂中(乙醇、叔丁醇)及较低的温度下(≤30℃)基本稳定,在酸性较强的质子溶剂中(甲醇、乙酸、CF3CO2D的DMSO-d6溶液)向烯胺转化,而且随着溶剂酸性的增强、温度的升高以及反应物与溶剂接触时间的延长,亚胺向烯胺的转化进一步加强.本文还以1a和1b为例,研究了在乙酸溶液中亚胺型杂卓向烯胺型杂卓转化的热力学和动力学特征.研究表明,在283~333 K范围内,该转化的焓变(△H)和熵变(△S)均大于零,吉布斯自由能变(△G)小于零,因此其是吸热、自发及熵增加的过程,该过程可用二级动力学方程来描述,质子对亚胺向烯胺的转化起催化作用.     

B型DNA中鸟嘌呤-胞嘧啶碱基对内双质子转移反应

采用ONIOM(M06-2X/6-31G^*:PM3)方法研究了单个鸟嘌呤-胞嘧啶(GC)碱基对和含GC碱基对的四种排序的DNA三聚体(dATGCAT, dGCGCGC, dTAGCTA, dCGGCCG)的双质子转移反应. 通过分析其双质子转移方式、质子转移过程中各结构的能量和氢键变化, 总结出环境因素对GC碱基对双质子转移机理的影响. 气相中, dCGGCCG三聚体中发生分步双质子转移, 其它四种模型中均发生协同双质子转移. 分析发现质子转移方式受上下相邻碱基对的静电相互作用和质子接受位的质子亲和势影响, dATGCAT和dGCGCGC排序有助于质子H4a转移, 而dTAGCTA和dCGGCCG排序有助于质子H1转移, 胞嘧啶的N3位较高的质子亲和势有助于质子H1转移. 水溶剂中, 上下相邻碱基对的静电相互作用被减弱, 水溶剂稳定了分步转移过程中的单质子转移产物, 因此分步转移机理占据优势, 五种模型中均出现分步双质子转移, 在此过程中能量变化趋势相似. 溶剂效应有利于单质子转移, 却增加了双质子转移反应的反应能.     

水-乙醇混合溶剂中过氧化氢酶活性与构象的研究

用微量热法和荧光法分别测定了水-乙醇混合溶剂中过氧化氢酶活性与构象的变化。结果表明,随着乙醇浓度的增大,过氧化氢酶酶促反应的米氏常数K~m有所增大,而反应速率常数k~2及酶的催化活性则明显降低;336nm处的相对荧光强度不断增强,酶分子的构象发生了变化,其结构渐趋松散。乙醇对过氧化氢酶活性的影响乃是乙醇的竞争性抑制和溶剂效应引起的酶构象变化共同作用的结果。

Kinetic and catalytic aspects of dimethylterephtalate transesterification also through the use of model molecules

Kinetic and catalytic aspects of DMT transesterification reaction, key step in the industrial production of polyethylenterephtalate (PET), have been deepened also through the use of model molecules such as CH₃COO–Ph–X. These molecules give the same reactions with ethylene glycol occurring in the DMT transesterification too. The use of model molecules in the study of this reaction seems therefore to be promising in perspective. As we observed, however, the nature of the para-substituent X has a very strong influence on the reaction rate, when salts of bivalent metals such as Zn, Cd, Co, Mg, Mn, are used as catalysts, while this influence is much smaller when a tetravalent metal, as Ti, is used. This fact suggests that the transesterification mechanism operating in the two cases is different and this suggestion has been confirmed by applying Hammett's approach to the available kinetic data. Experimental kinetic runs were all performed at 193°C, by withdrawing small samples of the reaction mixture at different reaction times. These samples were gaschromatographically analyzed. We found volcano shaped curves of the reaction rates as a function of the metal ion acidities and we obtained different trends with a maximum of activity shifted from a metal to another for different substrates. A comparison of the kinetic results obtained, respectively, with the model molecules and DMT will be reported too.     

DNA-accelerated atom transfer radical polymerization on a gold surface

A significantly increased polymer growth rate was observed during a surface-initiated ATRP reaction in the presence of DNA molecules. To investigate this phenomenon, thiolated single-stranded DNA molecules (ssDNAs) with ATRP initiators coupled at the distal point were used as the model molecule in the study. In comparison, a small molecule, HS-(CH(2))(11)NHCOC(CH(3))(2)Br, was used to provide a less-polar surface coating for polymer grafting. 2-Hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) and monomethoxy-capped oligo(ethylene glycol) methacrylate (OEGMA) were used as the ATRP monomers. The polymer growth rates were monitored by measuring the thickness of the polymer films formed at different times. Our results show that the presence of DNA molecules, although at a less-than-1% surface coverage, significantly accelerated the growth rates of both poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (PHEMA) and poly(oligoethylene glycol methacrylate) (POEGMA) at the beginning of the ATRP reactions. This accelerating effect was suspected to be a combined result of the highly charged sugar-phosphate backbones of DNA molecules and the formation of Cu complexes with DNA bases. After the initial polymer growth, a smaller yet constant polymer growth rate was observed, suggesting the reduced influence of DNA molecules as the ATRP reaction centers moved farther away from the surface. Similar to conventional ATRP reactions, the polymer growth from surface-anchored DNA molecules was found to be strongly dependent on the composition and the concentration of the catalysts used. Specifically, a catalyst mixture of CuCl/30% CuBr(2)/bpy with 23 mM CuCl was found to provide the optimal reaction condition to yield the fastest polymer film growth among the conditions tested.     

Preparation and Photochromic Behavior of Ormosil Containing Encapsulated AgTCNQ Molecules

Preparation and photochromic behavior of ormosil containing encapsulated AgTCNQ molecules were studied in this paper. The ormosil resulted from hydrolysis and polycondensation of glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane, dimethyldimethoxysilane and methyltrimethoxysilane. The time to add AgNO₃ water solution into the resultant sol was a key factor to synthesize AgTCNQ molecules inside ormosil matrix. AgTCNQ molecules encapsulated in the ormosil showed different photochromic behavior compared with pure AgTCNQ film: normal photochromic reaction can be realized, while reverse photochromic reaction can not. The “cage” model was used to explain this phenomenon.

Calculation of the characteristics of ethanol and methanol adsorbed in a pore of activated carbon by the density functional method

Density functional theory was used to perform quantum-chemical calculations of changes in the energy and structure characteristics of methanol and ethanol molecules caused by their adsorption in model slitlike pores of activated carbon. The conclusion was made that changes in these characteristics (bond lengths, angles, charges on atoms, and harmonic vibration frequencies) is additional evidence of the validity of the Tolmachev thermodynamic model, in which adsorption is treated as a quasi-chemical reaction of the addition of adsorbate molecules to adsorption centers of an adsorbent. It was shown that the arrangement of alcohol molecules, when the C-O and C-C bonds were approximately parallel to pore walls and the hydrogen atom was directed toward a nearer pore wall, was most favorable energetically. Two adsorbed alcohol molecules are also arranged parallel to pore walls and form a hydrogen bond.     

Time-resolved resonance Raman and density functional theory study of the deprotonation reaction of the triplet state of p-hydroxyacetophenone in water solution

[reaction; see text] Picosecond and nanosecond time-resolved resonance Raman (TR(3)) spectroscopy was employed to investigate the deprotonation/ionization reaction of p-hydroxyacetophenone (HA) after ultraviolet photolysis in water solution. The TR(3) spectra in conjunction with density functional theory (DFT) calculations were used to characterize the structure and dynamics of the excited-state HA deprotonation to form HA anions in near neutral water solvent. DFT calculations based on a solute-solvent intermolecular H-bonded complex model containing up to three water molecules were used to evaluate the H-bond interactions and their influence on the deprotonation reaction and the structures of the intermediates. The deprotonation reaction was found to occur on the triplet manifold with a planar H-bonded HA triplet complex as the precursor species. The HA triplet species is generated within several picoseconds and then decays with a approximately 10 ns time constant to produce the HA triplet anion species after 267 nm photolysis of HA in water solution. The triplet anion species was observed to decay with a time constant of about 90 ns into the ground-state anion species that was found to have a lifetime of about 200 ns. The DFT calculations on the H-bonded complexes of the anion triplet and ground-states species suggest that these anion species are H-bonded complexes with planar quinonoidal structures containing two water molecules H-bonded, respectively, with oxygen lone pairs of the carbonyl and deprotonated hydroxyl moieties. A deactivation scheme of the photoexcited HA in regard to the deprotonation reaction in neutral water solutions was proposed. With the above dynamic and structural information available, we briefly discuss the possible implications of the model HA photochemistry in water solutions for the photodeprotection reactions of related p-HP phototrigger compounds in aqueous solutions.     

Pendant unit effect on electron tunneling in U-shaped molecules

The electron transfer reactions of three U-shaped donor-bridge-acceptor molecules with different pendant groups have been studied in different solvents as a function of temperature. Analysis of the electron transfer kinetics in nonpolar and weakly polar solvents provides experimental reaction Gibbs energies that are used to parameterize a molecular solvation model. This solvation model is then used to predict energetic parameters in the electron transfer rate constant expression and allow the electronic coupling between the electron donor and electron acceptor groups to be determined from the rate data. The U-shaped molecules differ by alkylation of the aromatic pendant group, which lies in the ‘line-of-sight’ between the donor and acceptor groups. The findings show that the electronic coupling through the pendant group is similar for these molecules.     

Reactions of mixtures in supported catalysts: I. Models for catalyst deactivation and support pore size change and a single pellet behavior

A general model is presented for reaction mixtures undergoing catalytic reactions that are affected by catalyst deactivation. A continuum approach is used to represent the mixtures in terms of molecular size. The model accounts for the pore size exclusion effect, the change of pore size with deactivation along the entire pore length, and the effect of multilayer deposition of coke or metals on residual activity. The model also accounts for all possible reaction paths leading to all products and intermediates. Simulation results are presented for typical reaction mixtures. The results show that a larger pellet gives a higher residual activity for smaller molecules whereas a smaller pellet yields a higher activity for larger molecules. They also show that pellet size has little effect on the change of pore diameter with time.
