Structure and Conformation of 2,3,6, 7,10,11-hexakispentyloxytriphenylene by TEM and Computer Simulation

Experimental electron diffraction patterns and high resolution images were used to determine the space group and unit cell dimensions of 2,3,6,7,10,11-hexakispentyloxytriphenylene. Subsequently the molecular conformation was calculated by energy minimized package in Cerius2. Using this method, we got the HPT crystal structure: space group: P6/mmm; lattice type: hexogonal; the lattice parameters are a = b = 20.3 angstrom, c = 3.52 angstrom, = = 90 degrees, = 120 degrees. The core of HPT is not perpendicular to the column. The angle between a axis and HPT core plane is 9 degrees which cannot be seen in b-c projection. The simulated ED patterns and HREM images are good agreement with the experimental ED patterns and HREM images.

Hydrolytic cleavage of adenosine-3 '-monophosphate and guanosine-3 '-monophosphate by lanthanides

The hydrolytic cleavage of adenosine-3'-monophosphate (3'-AMP) and guanosine-3'-monophosphate (3'-GMP) by lanthanides was investigated by NMR, HPLC and the method of measuring the liberated inorganic phosphate. The results show that lanthanides have specificity for hydrolyzing 3'-mononucleotides. 3'-AMP and 3'-GMP were converted to Adenosine (A), phosphate and Guanosine (G),phosphate respectively at pH 9, 37 degrees C. The efficiency of cleavage was greater than that of 5'-mononucleotides. The mechanism of hydrolytic of cleavage was discussed in detail.

Lanthanide metal complexes for the hydrolysis of ribonucleoside 3',5'-cyclic phosphate and deoxyribonucleoside 3',5'-cyclic phosphate

Ytterbium(III) and praseodymium(III) complexes of 2-carboxyethylgermanium sesquioxide (Ge-132) can hydrolyze the phosphodiester linkage of 3',5'-cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) and 3',5'-cyclic deoxyadenosine monophosphate (dcAMP). Both cAMP and dcAMP are hydrolyzed with high selectivity, yielding predominantly 3'-monophosphates. The selectivity and activity for hydrolyzing cAMP and dcAMP by lanthanide metal(III) complexes and lanthanide metal ions are compared.

Efficient cleavage of ribonucleoside 3',5'-cyclic phosphates and deoxyribonucleoside 3',5'-cyclic phosphate by lanthanides

The cleavage of 3',5'-cAMP, 3',5'-cGMP and 3',5'-dcAMP by lanthanides has been investigated by HPLC and H-1 NMR. Rapid cleavage of cAMP, cGMP and dcAMP by Ce(III) under air at pH 8 and 37 degrees C has been observed. Regioselective cleavage of P-O(5') bond in cAMP, cGMP and dc;aMP tu give the corresponding 3'-AMP, 3'-GMP and 3'-dAMP by lanthanide chlorides has been achieved, and 3'-AMP and 3'-GMP are cleaved to adenosine(A) and guanosine(CT) more slowly, respectively, The notable difference in reactivity between Ce(III) and the other lanthanide ions under air has also been studied. The cleavage is enhanced with the increase in the molar fraction of Ce(IV). The fast cleavage of cAMP by Ce(III) under air at pH 8 is ascribed to the resultant Ce(IV) in the reaction mixture.

DOPING EFFECTS ON THE POLYMER-CHAIN STRUCTURE OF POLY(3-METHYLTHIOPHENE)

The C=C stretching Raman shifts and photoluminescence (PL) for poly(3-methylthiophene) (P3MT) are measured at various doping levels by in situ electrochemical Raman and PL spectroscopic techniques. It is found that the doping for P3MT induces the nonlinear excitations (soliton, Polaron, bipolaron), but also affects the polymer-chain structure, including the conjugated length and the interchain distance.

INVESTIGATION ON THE LUMINESCENCE PROPERTIES OF DY-3+ AND EU-3+ IN ALKALINE-EARTH BORATES

In this paper, the yellow-to-blue intensity ratio of Dy3+ (Y/B) and the red-to-orange intensity ratio of Eu3+ (R/O) were studied in relation to the compositions and structures of alkaline-earth borates. The dependence of the energy of the Eu3+ charge-transfer band (CTB) and of the emission intensity of Dy3+ on the alkaline-earth ions and the boron content of the hosts is discussed.

Photoluminescence of undoped and B-doped ZnO in silicate glasses

Photoluminescence of undoped and B-doped ZnO in silicate glasses was investigated by varying the concentration of ZnO (3550 mol%) and B dopant (0-10 mol%) in the glass matrices. The broad and intense near band edge emissions were observed while the visible light emission was very weak. UV luminescence in all samples was red-shifted relative to the exciton transition in bulk ZnO and enhanced by decreased ZnO concentration due to higher degree of structural integrity and the lower aggregation degree of ZnO. Donor B dopant played the double roles of filling conduction bands to broaden band gap when its concentration was lower than 5 mol%, and emerging with conduction bands to narrow the gap when B dopant exceeded this value.

Influence of carbon on the thermoluminescence and optically stimulated luminescence of α -Al2O3:C crystals

alpha-Al2O3:C crystal shows excellent thermoluminescence (TL) and optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) properties but the real role carbon plays in this crystal is still not clearly understood so far. In this work, alpha-Al2O3:C crystal doping with different amounts of carbon were grown by the temperature gradient technique, and TL and OSL properties of as-grown crystals were investigated. Additionally, a mechanism was proposed to explain the role of carbon in forming the TL and OSL properties of alpha-Al2O3:C. TL and OSL intensities of as-grown crystals increase with the increasing amount of carbon doping in the crystal, but no shift is found in the glow peak location at 465 K. As the amount of carbon doping in the crystals decreases, OSL decay rate becomes faster. With the increase in heating rate, the integral TL response of as-grown crystals decreases and glow peak shifts to higher temperatures. TL response decrease rate increases with the increasing amount of carbon doping in the crystals. All the TL and OSL response curves of as-grown crystals show linear-sublinear-saturation characteristic, and OSL dose response exhibits higher sensitivity and wider linear dose range than that of TL. The crystal doping with 5000 ppm carbon shows the best dosimetric properties. Carbon plays the role of a dopant in alpha-Al2O3:C crystal and four-valent carbon anions replace the two-valent anions of oxygen during the crystal growth process, and large amounts of oxygen vacancies were formed, which corresponds to the high absorption coefficient of F and F+ centers in the crystals.
