Abstract:
Two practical methods for highly stereoselective synthesis of (Z)-2-acylamido-4-phenylcrotonates 2a~b have been developed. The key step in the first route was how to control the acid-catalyzed isomerization of condensation mixtures of α-keto ester 5 with carbomite. In the second route the key step was reduction of oxime 8, derived from α-keto ester 5, with iron powder in the presence of acetic anhydride.

Abstract:
Fourteen N'-(4,5,6-Trisubstitued pyrimidin-2-yl)-2-chloroacetylureas and fourteen N-[N'-(4,5,6-trisubstitued pyrimidin-2-yl) acetylureido] benzoic sulfimide derivatives were synthesized. Among them twenty-seven are new compounds and their structures have been confirmed by 1HNMR, IR, MS and elemental analysis. The preliminary biological tests showed that some of the target compounds have excellent inhibitory activities against barnyard grass and rape, and the others have a good regulating activity for plant growth.

Catalytic Formation of Propylene Carbonate from Supercritical Carbon Dioxide/Propylene Oxide Mixture
2000, 11(7): 589-592
Abstract:
Propylene carbonate was synthesized from supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO2)/propylene oxide mixture with phthalocyaninatoaluminium chloride (ClAlPc)/tetrabutylammon-ium bromide (n-Bu4NBr) as catalyst. The high rate of reaction was attributed to rapid diffusion and the high miscibility of propylene oxide in SC-CO2 under employed conditions. Various reaction periods present different formation rate of propylene carbonate, mainly due to the existence of phase change during the reaction. The experimental results demonstrate that SC-CO2 could be used as not only an environmentally benign solvent but also a carbon precursor in synthesis.

Abstract:
The anti-tumor activity of Trichosanthin (TCS) has been frequently reported in recent years. In our experiments, electrochemical methods were applied to detect the effects of TCS on human leukemia cells U937. 50μg/ml TCS treatment for 40 hours can cause irreversible negative effects on the viability of U937 cells. This effect largely depends on the concentration of TCS and the time period of treatment.

Abstract:
With a Ni/GC ion implantation modified electrode as working electrode, in 0.1 mol/L HOAc-NaOAc (pH=4.62) solution, a sensitive reductive wave of ADM was obtained by linear sweep voltammetry. The peak potential was-0.55 V (vs.SCE). The peak current is proportional to the concentration of ADM with a detection limit of 6.9×10-8 mol/L. The behavior of the reduction wave was studied. The experiments of AES and XPS showed that Ni was surely implanted into the surface of the GCE and the implanted Ni at the GCE improved the electrocatalytic activity.

Abstract:
A nested genetic algorithm, including genetic parameter level and genetic implemented level for peak parameters, was proposed and applied for resolving overlapped spectral bands. By the genetic parameter level, parameters of genetic algorithm were optimized; moreover, the number of overlapped peaks was determined simultaneously. Then parameters of individual peaks were computed with the genetic implemented level.

Abstract:
A new method was developed for the quantitative determination of the neurotoxic non-protein amino acid, 3-N-oxalyl-L-2,3-diaminopropionic acid (β-ODAP), its nontoxic α-isomer and other non-protein amino acids in the plant samples of Lathyrus sativus after derivatization with 6-aminoquinolyl-N-hydroxysuccinimidyl carbamate (AQC) by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). 2-Amino butyric acid (ABA) was used as an internal standard. The RP HPLC detection limit for both isomers is 1.8 ng with good response linearity. The results are compared with a colorimetric method.

Abstract:
Polarization variable-angle synchronous fluorescence spectrometry was proposed to determine samples in turbid solution. A mixture of fluorescein, rhodamine 6G and rhodamine B was used to evaluate the technique. The background caused by scattering light was decreased remarkably. The limits of detection were 0.6 ng/ml for fluorescein, 2.3 ng/ml for rhodamine 6G and 4.1 ng/ml for rhodamine B, respectively.

Abstract:
A new method of oscillographic chronopotentiometry at silver disk electrode was investigated.By using it, a series of ions such as Pb, In, Cr, Tl, Bi etc. were determined. The detection limits are two or three orders of magnitude lower than those by oscillographic chronopotentiometry at mercury electrode. The proposed method is characterized by fine sensitivity、stable oscillogram and no mercury. The research on the mechanism of this method shows that these achievements are caused by the characterristics of silver electroxidation and electroreduction and the oscillographic chronopotentiometry (OC).

Abstract:
In this paper a pH microprobe technique was developed to measure in-situ the pH value at the electrode/solution interface. Iridium oxide was used as a pH sensitive material with good response behavior in the measured solutions. The experimental results indicated that the interfacial pH increased with the applied potential, first jumped to a maximum, then slowly decreased at the controlled potential during the electrodeposition process of functional ceramics.

Abstract:
Grand Canonical Monte Carlo (GCMC) simulations have been performed to study the localization and adsorption behavior of benzene and propylene, in purely siliceous MWW zeolite (ITQ-1). By analyzing the locations of benzene and propylene in ITQ-1, it can be deduced that the alkylation of benzene and propylene will mainly happen in 12-MR supercages at the external surface or close to the external surface. The adsorption isotherms of benzene and propylene at 315K and 0~3.5kPa are predicted, and the results for benzene generally coincide with the trend from the experiments of a series of aromatic compounds.

Abstract:
CH4-CO2-O2 reforming to syngas in a novel Ba0.5Sr0.5Co0.8Fe0.2O3-δ oxygen-permeable membrane reactor using LiLaNiO/γ-Al2O3 as catalyst was successfully reported. Excellent reaction performance was achieved with around 92% methane conversion efficiency, 95% CO2 conversion rate, and nearly 8.5mL/min·cm2 oxygen permeation flux. In contrast to the oxygen permeation model with the presence of large concentration of CO2 (under such condition the oxygen permeation flux deteriorates with time), the oxygen permeation flux is really stable under the CH4-CO2-O2 reforming condition.

Abstract:
Two new binuclear (europium and lanthanum) β-diketone complexes Eu0.9La0.1(TTA)3Phen and Eu0.5La0.5(TTA)3Phen in which Phen is 1,10-phenanthroline, TTA is an anion of thenoyltrifluoroacetone (HTTA) were synthesized for the first time. They showed intense photoluminescence (PL) and mechanoluminescence (ML), and had their maximum PL and ML spectra peaked at 613.5 nm with half bandwidth of 10 nm respectively. Their PL and ML intensity were obviously stronger than these from Eu(TTA)3Phen. It is considered that binuclear (europium and lanthanum) β-diketones complexes are promising ML and PL materials.
