Abstract:
1,4-anhydro-2-triflyl-3,5-O-benzenylidene-L-xylitol (5) was constructed in six steps from protected D-xylose. Substitution of 5 with protected 8-bromoinosine 6 gave the key intermediate 5'-O-TBS-2',3'-di-O-acetyl-N1-(2"-deoxy-1",4"-anhydro-3",5"-O-benzenylidene-Llyxitol-2"-yl)-8-bromoinosine (14). Selective removal of 5'-O-TBS-group gave the corresponding 5'-O-phosphorodianilidate 4 though phosphorylation, which was characterized by X-ray crystallographic analysis.

Abstract:
Nucleophilic additions to endo-tricyclo [5.2.1.02.6]deca-2(6),8-dien-3-one 4 are described.Experimental results show high preference for exo-facial attack to the enone moiety of tricyclodecadienone. Steric hindrance is the main kinetically controlling factor in the nucleophilic reaction. The shielding effect and the stabilizing effect of the norbornene double bond favor the exo-facial attack also.

Abstract:
An aliphatic polyester, poly(hexalene adipate) (PHA) and an aliphatic copolyester, poly (hexalene adipate succinate) (PHAS) were synthesized by direct condensation of corresponding binary acid and binary alcohol in the presence of a catalyst, p-toluene sulfonic acid. The biodegradation of these polyesters were studied in the laboratory by enzyme attack and outdoor soil burial. The results show that these polyesters have good biodegradability and the copolyester PHAS, even displayed a better biodegradability than the polyester PHA. In the presence of Penicillium chrysogenum the weight loss reached 18.3% for the PHAS (film thickness 1.0 mm)and 9.1% for the PHA (film thickness 1.0 mm) after 28 days. Outdoor soil burial tests indicate that these polyesters also have good biodegradability in natural conditions. The weight loss reached 14.2% for PHAS (film thickness 0.1 mm) and 6.7% for PHA (film thickness 0.1mm) after burying in soil for 36 days.

Abstract:
A strong interaction between double stranded calf-thymus DNA (ds-DNA) and epinephrine but no interaction between single stranded calf-thymus DNA (ss-DNA) and epinephrine were observed by the use of UV-spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry. It is suggested that the interaction leads to an intercalation of EP molecules into the groove of ds-DNA and the formation of ds-DNA(EP)n complex.

The synthesis and upconverted fluorescent properties of a series of organic compounds with the structure:donor/bridge/acceptor, and different side-chains are reported. The results show that the compounds with different side-chains exhibit different two-photon induced fluorescent properties, although they have the same main donor/bridge/acceptor structure.

Abstract:
The conformation of mono-6-O-p-nitrobenzoyl-β-cyclodextrin was studied with B3LYP/6-311g**//PM3 calculations in vacuum and in water solution. It was concluded that the p-nitrobenzoyl group of the molecule should be located above the primary hydroxyls of the cyclodextrin instead of being completely enclosed by the cavity. It was proposed that the behavior might be caused by the requirement of a cis ester bond in the self-included conformation of the molecule.

Abstract:
Kinetic model of hypophosphite oxidation on a nickel electrode was studied in D2Osolution in order to reach a better understanding of the oxidation mechanism. In the model the electrooxidation of hypophosphite undergo a H abstraction of hypophosphite from the P-H bond to form the phosphorus-centered radical PHO2-, which subsequently is electrochemically reacted with water to form the final product, phosphite. The kinetic equations were derived, and the kinetic parameters were obtained from a comparison of experimental results and the kinetic equations. The process of hypophosphite electrooxidation could be well simulated by this model

Abstract:
By using the iterative method in functional theory, an analytic expression of the Poisson-Boltzmann equation (PB eq.), which describes the distribution of the potential of electrical double layer of a spherical micelle, has been carried out under the general potential condition for the first time. The method also can give the radius, the surface potential, and the thickness of the layer.

Abstract:
The catalytic property of AlCl3 catalyst immobilized on γ-Al2O3 for isobutene polymerization has been studied. It was found that the activity, selectivity and stability of the catalyst are dependent greatly on geometric characteristic of the pore structure and size of catalyst.Although the activity and selectivity of the catalysts with micro-and meso-pore structure are all high in initial stage, but their stability is low, while those with bimodal meso-and macro-pore structure are excellent. Increasing granularity of the catalyst (particle become fine) brings about an increase in isobutene conversion, but a decrease in selectivity, resulting in lower average molecular weight and its broader distribution.

The nature of bonding in the title compounds has been studied by using CASSCF and FOCl techniques. The ground states of WC and WN are found to be 3Δ and 4∑- state arising primarily from:...1σ2σ21π41δ13σ1 and...1σ2σ21π41δ23σ1 configuration respectively. WC shows a strong character of covalent bond while WN have obvious character of ionic bond and the dissociation energy of WN is larger than that of WC (6.15 and 5.41 eV respective).
