NMR Spectra of polyimides: Interpretation and local chain motion study

Three kinds of high-performance polyimides 1 (poly(ketone-imide) PKI), 2 (poly(ether-imide) PEI) and 3 (poly(oxy-imide) POI) were studied using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). The NMR spectra of the polyimides were assigned according to the comprehensive consideration of the substitution effect of different substituting groups, viz. distortionless enhancement by polarization transfer (DEPT), no nuclear Overhauser effect (NNE), analysis of relaxation time, and two-dimensional correlated spectroscopy (COSY) techniques. The structural units of these three polyimides were determined. Carbon-13 and proton relaxation times for PEI and PKI were interpreted in terms of segmental motion characterized by the sharp cutoff model of Jones and Stockmayer (JS model) and anisotropic group rotation such as phenyl group rotation and methyl group rotation. Correlation times for the main-chain motion are in the tens of picosecond range which indicates the high flexibility of polyimide chains. Correlation times for phenyl group and methyl group rotations are more than 1 order of magnitude lower and approximately 1 order of magnitude higher than that of the main chain, respectively.

A NMR investigation on the interaction of lanthanide complexes with phospholipid bilayers

One and two dimentional NMR methods were used to investigate the interactions of lanthanide complexes (Lncit(2) and Ln-DTPA) with phospholipid bilayers, The results showed that in the phospholipid bilayers dispersion containing citrate ligand at pH 7.4, lanthanide ions would initially combine with citrate ligand and form Lncit, complexes which have little effect on the structure of phospholipid bilayers. Ln-DTPA complex does not affect the bilayers structure either. These results provided important experimental data for evaluating scientifically the toxicities of lanthanide ions when they were introduced into the biological body.

A new topological index for the Changchun institute of applied chemistry C-13 NMR information system

A method to assign a single number representation for each atom (node) in a molecular graph, Atomic IDentification (AID) number, is proposed based on the counts of weighted paths terminated on that atom. Then, a new topological index, Molecular IDentification (MID) number is developed from AID. The MID is tested systematically, over half a million of structures are examined, and MID shows high discrimination for various structural isomers. Thus it can be used for documentation in the Changchun Institute of Chemistry C-13 NMR information system.

STUDIES ON INCREASING THE ACTIVITY OF SELENIUM-CONTAINING ABZYME .1. SYNTHESIS, CHARACTERIZATION AND PROPERTIES OF HAPTEN AND ANTIGEN

The thiol group of glutathione (GSH) reacts specifically with 2,4-di-ni-trochlorobenzene to give S-substituted dinitrophenyl glutathione (GSH-S-DNP); two carboxyl groups of GSH-S-DNP were further esterified by n-butanol to produce the hapten, multisubstrate analog GSH-S-DNP Butyl Ester (GSH-S-DNP BE). The primary structure of the hapten was characterized by the free. amino group analysis, H-1 NMR, IR determinations and the elemental analysis. The hapten was then conjugated to bovine serum albumin (BSA) in the presence of glutaraldehyde. The reaction mixture was purified by Ultrogel AcA54 colum chromatography to give the antigen. On an average, 25 haptens were bound to each BSA molecule. Electrophoresis analysis showed that the average molecular weight of the antigen was 87 KD. CD spectrum showed that the a-helix content of the antigen increased.

A NMR-STUDY OF THE INTERACTION OF SILICA WITH DIPALMITOYLPHOSPHATIDYLCHOLINE LIPOSOMES

The interaction of silica with dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC) liposomes has been studied by detecting H-1 and 2D NOESY NMR spectra and measuring proton spin-lattice relaxation time (T-1). The antagonistic effect of aluminium citrate on silica has also been studied by measuring the proton T-1 values, The results show that silica particles mainly bind to the phosphate moiety of the polar headgroup of DPPC bilayers through hydrogen bonds between Si-OH and O-P groups, but they have no significant effect on the conformation of the choline group of the polar headgroup, The addition of silica particles decreases the mobilities of the hydrocarbon chains slightly, Proton T-1 data also indicate that aluminium citrate reduces the effect of silica, A possible mechanism for the toxicity of silica and the antagonistic effect of aluminium titrate on silica is suggested.

PENDANT FUNCTIONAL-GROUP COPOLYETHER SULFONES .1. SYNTHESIS AND CHARACTERIZATION OF NEW COPOLYETHER SULFONES WITH PENDANT ALDEHYDE GROUPS MODIFIED INTO PHENOLIC AZOMETHINE GROUPS

New functional copolyether sulfones with pendant aldehyde groups were synthesized by the classical polycondensation reaction between 4,4' -dichlorodiphenyl sulfone (I) and various bisphenols such as 5,5'-methylene bis-salicylaldehyde (II-2), 2,2-bis( 4-hydroxyphenyl)propane (III), and 2,6-bis(4-hydroxybenzylidene)cyclohexanone (IV). Condensation reaction with 4-aminophenol led to pendant phenolic azomethine groups containing copolyether sulfones. The structures of the resulting polymers were confirmed by IR, H-1-NMR spectra, and elemental analyses. The polymers were characterized by reduced viscosity, solubility, thermal stability, DSC, and x-ray diffraction measurements.

UNSTEADY DIFFUSION KINETICS OF ZIEGLER-NATTA HETEROGENEOUS CATALYST POLYMERIZATION .4. PREDICTION OF EXPERIMENTAL RESULTS OF PROPYLENE ETHYLENE 1-HEXADECENE TERPOLYMERIZATION

The prediction, based on unsteady diffusion kinetics, of the enhancement of reactivity and incorporation of 1-hexadecene in its copolymerization with propylene on adding a small amount of ethylene (increase from 5,2 mol-% to 10,8 mol-% when 2% of ethylene was added, and to 16,1 mol-% when 5% was added) was verified in the terpolymerization of propylene/1-hexadecene/ethylene on a commercial Solvay-type delta-TiCl3 catalyst. The catalyst efficiency was thus also increased. These augmentations originate from the increase in diffusion coefficient of 1-hexadecene at the catalyst surface when the PP crystallinity decreases on introduction of ethylene. Calculation based on unsteady diffusion kinetics showed that the order of diffusion coefficients ethylene > propylene > 1-hexadecene is reversed as the monomer concentration increases when the monomers are not at their equilibrium concentration. Sequence distribution as determined by means of C-13 NMR revealed a tendency of blocky structure rather than a Bernoullian one. The terpolymer compositions obtained by means of an IR method developed in this work conform rather well with the NMR results. Results in this work not only support the unsteady diffusion kinetics but also provide a new route to prepare olefinic copolymer rubbers with heterogeneous titanium catalysts.

NMR-STUDIES ON THE COORDINATION OF RARE-EARTHS WITH GLYCYL-DL-VALINE AND THE CONFORMATION OF THEIR COMPLEX IN AQUEOUS-SOLUTION

In this paper lanthanide-induced shifts have been measured for C-13 and H-1 nuclei of glycyl-DL-valine in the presence of three lanthanide cations (La3+, Ho3+ and Yb3+) in aqueous solution. The stability constants of the coordination compounds of rare earths (Ho, Yb) with glycyl-DL-valine have been calculated. The coordination of rare earths with the ligand has been discussed. The simulation for conformation of lanthanide coordination compounds with glycyl-DL-valine shows that the ligand is coordinated to lanthanide ion through oxygen atoms of carboxyl group and the bond length of Ln-O is 0.226 nm. In the coordination compounds glycyl-DL-valine is in extended state with minimal steric hindrance.

The reaction of the terminated oligomer with a large amount of sulfuric acid as well as the former reaction was examined. The effects of some main reaction conditions on the crosslinking condensation and sulfonation were also discussed.
