STUDY ON LOW-FREQUENCY RAMAN SPECTRA OF n-DECYLAMMONIUM CHLORIDE

The low-frequency Raman spectrum of n-decylammonium chloride was measured as a function of temperature in the temperature range from 290 to 340K, and the longitudinal acoustical mode vibration band was assigned. The results showed that there are two phase transitions at 313K and 321K, respectively. The phase transition at 313K is mainly induced by change of hydrocarbon chain conformations, while that at 321K is mainly induced by change of order degree of molecular packing. The results suggest low-frequency Raman spectroscopy is a useful probe of structural phase transition for long-chain compounds.

A MASS-SPECTROMETRIC STUDY OF ORGANIC PHOSPHORUS-COMPOUNDS .5. EI SPECTRA OF 1, 3, 2-OXAZAPHOSPHOLIDINE 2-SULFIDES DERIVATES

The mass spectral behaviour of 15 new type of organic phosphorus compounds with a considerable insecticidal activity, 1, 3,2-oxazaphospholidine 2-sulfides derivatives, under 70 eV electron impact has been studied by means of high and low resolution mass spectrometry as well as by B/E linked scan and MIKES/CID analysis. Discussion is focused into the isomerization between oxygen and sulphur in molecules and some rearrangement reactions.

BIOMIMITICS OF OXIDASE AND OXYGENASE THE ELECTRONIC SPECTRA AND THE OXYGEN UPTAKE KINTICS FOR MPc AND MTPP (M = Fe, Co, Cu, Pc AND TFP - ARE DIANIONS OF PHTHALOCYANIN AND TETRAPHENYLPORPHYRINE, RESPECTIVELY)

The reaction rates of MTPP with oxygen in air are Inas than that with pure oxygen, the ratio is roughly the same as to the partial presence of imygen in air, The influences of S-ligand etbanethiol and O- litand Vc on the above Systems have also been investigated, the former makes the MP hands having more changes and the reaction rate constants becoming greater, the latter has less influence.

ASSIGNMENT OF C-13 NMR-SPECTRA OF POLYMER WITH SEMIEMPIRICAL METHOD - SURVEY OF SPECTRUM OF SECONDARY CARBON OF 1,2-PBD

In chain molecules of 1, 2-PBD, there are two kinds of gauche arrangements, which is the cause of making the spectrum of the secondary carbon in main chain of the polymer split. In such a complex system, the gauche arrangements of the secondary carbon and the tertiary carbon occupy an important position. Hence, the contribution of the tertiary carbon to the chemical shifts of the secondary carbon has a decisive effect on the sequence structure distribution. In comparison the contribution of vinyl groups is ...

IR AND RAMAN-SPECTRA STUDIES OF THE RARE EARCH COMPLEXES WITH GLUTATHIONE

The complexes of rare earth ions with glutathione were prepared and charactrized by IR and Raman spectroscopy in the solid state. Based on the spectral results, the structure and coordination sites of the ligand in these complexes were determined.

A parametric method of retrieving ocean wave spectra from synthetic aperture radar images

A parametric method that extracts the ocean wave directional spectra from synthetic aperture radar (SAR) image is presented. The 180 degrees ambiguity of SAR image and the loss of information beyond the azimuthal cutoff can be overcome with this method. The ocean wave spectra can be obtained from SAR image directly by using iteration inversion mapping method with forward nonlinear mapping. Some numerical experiments have been made by using ERS-1 satellite SAR imagette data. The ocean wave direction retrieved from SAR imagette data is in agreement with the wind direction from the scatterometer data.

Size dependence of biomass spectra and abundance spectra: the optimal distributions

Based on the hypothesis of self-optimization, we derive four models of biomass spectra and abundance spectra in communities with size-dependent metabolic rates. In Models 1 and 2, the maximum diversity of population abundance in different size classes subject to the constraints of constant mean body mass and constant mean respiration rate is assumed to be the strategy for ecosystems to organize their size structure. In Models 3 and 4, the organizing strategy is defined as the maximum diversity of biomass in different size classes without constraints on mean body mass and subject to the constant mean specific respiration rate of all individuals, i.e. the average specific respiration rate over all individuals of a community or group, which characterizes the mean rate of energy consumption in a community. Models 1 and 2 generate peaked distributions of biomass spectral density whereas Model 3 generates a fiat distribution. In Model 4, the distributions of biomass spectral density and of abundance spectral density depend on the Lagrangian multipler (lambda (2)). When lambda (2) tends to zero or equals zero, the distributions of biomass spectral density and of abundance spectral density correspond to those from Model 3. When lambda (2) has a large negative value, the biomass spectrum is similar to the empirical fiat biomass spectrum organized in logarithmic size intervals. When lambda (2) > 0, the biomass spectral density increases with body mass and the distribution of abundance spectral density is an unimodal curve. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
