Luminescence of Eu2+ in sodium polyaluminates

The sodium polyaluminates were synthesized by a high temperature solid state method and the luminescence of Eu2+ in the sodium polyaluminates was studied. The results show that the structure of the system Na1+xMgxAl11-xO17 from x=0.1 to x=1.0 belongs to Na-beta-alumina and the structure of the system Na1.67-2xBaxMg0.67Al10.33O17 changes at about x equal to 0.30, when x is smaller than 0.30 the system forms the solid solution structure of Na-beta-alumina, when x is larger than 0.30 the system becomes the ordered structure of Ba-beta-alumina, correspondingly the emission peak position and the relative emission intensity of Eu2+ change with the changes of composition and structure of the system. There exist two kinds of the luminescent centers of high and low energies of Eu2+ in the matrix of Na-beta-alumina structure. New phosphor with Ba-beta-alumina structure, Na0.67Ba0.50Mg0.67Al10.33O17:Eu2+, was obtained.

Using matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time of flight-mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS). The homogeneities and molecular weights of three arginine esterases from snake venom, which possessing therapeutic use in myocardial infarction, were determined and compared, MALDI-TOF-MS is possessed of high accuracy, high sensitivity and rapidity. MALDI-TOF-MS and sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) can provide complementary and confirmatory results information. MALDI-TOF-MS can be directly used as an important method for the purification of snake venom complexes successfully.

A new dinuclear molybdenum(V)-sulfur complex containing citrate ligand: synthesis and characterization of K2.5Na2NH4[Mo2O2S2(cit)(2)].5H(2)O

The complex, K2.5Na2NH4[Mo2O2S2(cit)(2)]. 5H(2)O (1), was obtained by crystallization from a solution of (NH4)(2)MoS4, potassium citrate (K(3)cit) and hydroxyl sodium in methanol and water under an atmosphere of pure nitrogen at ambient temperature. The crystals are triclinic, space group , a = 7.376 (3)Angstrom, b = 14.620 (2) Angstrom, c = 14.661 (1) Angstrom, alpha = 71.10 (1)degrees, beta = 81.77 (1)degrees, gamma = 78.27(2)degrees, R = 0.0584 for 2545 observed (I > 2 sigma (I)) reflections. Single crystal structure analysis reveals that citrate ligand coordinated to molybdenum atom through two carboxylato oxygens and one deprotonated hydroxyl oxygen together with two bridging sulfur atoms and a terminal oxygen atom completes distorted coordination octahedron around each molybdenum atom. Principal dimensions are: Mo = O-t, 1.707 Angstrom (av); Mo-S-b, 2.341 Angstrom (av); Mo-O-(hydroxyl), 2.021 Angstrom (av); Mo-O(alpha-carboxyl), 2.1290 Angstrom (av) and Mo-O(beta-carboxyl), 2.268(av) Angstrom. IR spectrum is in agreement with the structure.

Synthesis and crystal structure of a polymeric erbium(III)-sodium(I) coordination complex of picolinic acid N-oxide

A new Er(III)-Na(I) coordination polymer of stoichiometry [NaEr2L5(H2O)(6)(NO3)](NO3). 3.5H(2)O (HL = picolinic acid N-oxide) has been synthesized and characterized by single-crystal X-ray analysis. Crystals are triclinic, P (1) over bar with a = 9.823(2), b = 12.453(2), c = 20.643(4) Angstrom; alpha = 98.49(3), beta = 101.40(3), gamma = 108.69(3)degrees; V = 2284(1) Angstrom(3); Z = 2. Of the two independent eight-coordinate erbium(III) ions in this complex, one is surrounded by four bidentate chelating L ligands, and the other by one bidentate chelating L ligand, four aqua ligands and two anti-carboxylate oxygen atoms from two neighboring [ErL4] units. The sodium(I) ion is in a distorted octahedral environment, being coordinated by a unidentate nitrate anion, three aqua ligands and two anti-carboxylate oxygen atoms from two adjacent [ErL4] units. The complex is built from zigzag chains of syn-anti carboxylate-bridged erbium(III) moieties directed in the a direction, which are cross-linked pairwise by aqua-bridged dimeric sodium(I) units. The resulting composite polymeric chains are further connected by hydrogen bonds to form a three-dimensional network.

Detection of menadione sodium bisulfite (vitamin K-3) by reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography with series dual-electrode amperometric detector

A reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography with series dual glassy carbon electrodes for the amperometric detection of water-soluble menadione is described. The complex post-column derivatization reaction and the high background currents were avoided. The menadione sodium bisulfite was reduced at -0.3 V vs. SCE at the upstream (generator) electrode and oxidized at +0.2V vs. SCE at the downstream (collector) electrode. The mobile phase was 0.2moll(-1) HAc-NaAc aqueous buffer (pH 5.50) and 40% (v/v) methanol. The linear response was in the range of 35 ng to 15 mu g, with a detection Limit of 15 ng (S/N=3). The correlation coefficient was 0.9997 (n=6). The electrochemical detection with series dual electrodes has a higher selectivity for menadione (vitamin K-3) compound than with UV detection.

THE CHAIN STRUCTURE AND LIGHT-SCATTERING-STUDIES FOR ACRYLAMIDE-SODIUM ACRYLIC-ACID (AM-AA) COPOLYMERS

A set of AM-AA copolymer samples with the same comonomer content and different average molecular weight have been characterized by C-13 NMB and light scattering methods in this paper. The chemical composition (comonomer AA, mole content 16.9 +/- 1.1%) of these samples is uniform. the sequence of AA in the macromolecular chain is of alone and random distribution and the light scattering theory from polyelectrolyte in added-salt solutions is suitable for the AM-AA copolymers-0.12 mol/L NaCl water systems. The actual values of M(w), the second Virial coefficient A(2) and the mean square radius of gyration (R(2)), for the studied samples have been obtained. The relationships between the molecular parameters are as follows: A(2)=0.0619 ($) over bar M(w)(-0.24), < R(2) >(1/2)(t)= 0.0210 ($) over bar M(w)(0.54).

CHARACTERIZATION OF A POTASSIUM-PROMOTED COBALT MOLYBDENUM ALUMINA WATER-GAS SHIFT CATALYST

A series of potassium-promoted CoMo/Al2O3 has been investigated by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and temperature-programmed reduction (TPR). CoMoO4 was found in the CoMo/Al2O3 catalyst by XRD and is destroyed by the presence of potassium. The reducibility of molybdenum is enhanced by potassium in the CoMoK/Al2O3 catalyst and is easier to reduce to Mo(IV) during sulfidation. In the oxidic state catalyst cobalt is increased on the surface by the addition of potassium. After sulfidation this phenomena disappeared, the distribution of cobalt remains at a constant level and is unaffected by the potassium content. The addition of potassium leads to a monotonical decrease of the molybdenum dispersion with the impregnating amount of potassium in the oxidic state catalyst but is more complicated after sulfidation. Potassium is well dispersed on the surface in both the oxidic and sulfided state. The activity in the water-gas shift reaction was correlated with the potassium content of CoMoK/Al2O3.

SYNTHESIS OF ALKALI-METAL HYDRIDES USING LANTHANIDE TRICHLORIDE-NAPHTHALENE AS CATALYST UNDER MILD CONDITIONS

The hydrogenation of alkali metals using lanthanide trichloride and naphthalene as catalyst has been studied. LnCl3(Ln = La, Nd, Sm, Dy, Yb) and naphthalene can catalyze the hydrogenation of sodium under atmospheric pressure and 40-degrees-C to form sodium hydride. The activities of lanthanide trichlorides are in the following order: LaCl3 > NdCl3 > SmCl3 > DyCl3 > YbCl3. Although lithium proceeds in the same catalytic reaction, the kinetic curve of the lithium hydrogenation is different from that of sodium. Lanthanide trichlorides display no catalytic effect on the hydrogenation of potassium in presence of naphthalene. The mechanism of this reaction has been studied and it is suggested that the anion-radical of alkali metal naphthalene complexes may be the intermediate for the hydrogenation of alkali metals and the function of LnCl3 is to catalyze the hydrogenation of the intermediate. The products are porous solids with high specific surface area (83 m2/g for NaH) and pyrophoric in air. They are far more active than the commercial alkali metal hydrides. The combination of these hydrides with some transition metal complexes exhibits high catalytic activity for the hydrogenation of olefins.
