Abstract:
Reacting calix[6]arene hexaesters with poly(ethyleneimine), a series of calix [6]amides-based polymers were obtained for the first time.It is found that they show high absorption capacities towards soft cations comparing to hard cations, and the absorption abilities enhanced with the increasing of calixarene content, which may indicates the cavity of calixarene plays crucial role in absorption.Polymer 2c shows good selective absorption capability towards Ag+ among the tested cations.

Abstract:
Diphenyl oxalate was synthesized from transesterification of dimethyl oxalate with phenol over TS-1( 2.5 wt% Ti ) catalyst.TS-1 catalyst, as a heterogeneous catalyst, showed excellent selectivity of diphenyl oxalate and methylphenyl oxalate compared with other homogeneous catalysts.Lewis acid sites on TS-1 catalyst were the active sites for transesterification of dimethyl oxalate with phenol.The high selectivity was closely related to the weak acid sites over TS-1.

Abstract:
The metabolic mechanism of 8-hydroxyguanine (8-OHGua) is so far unknown, however it is known to function in the mutagenic events in biological systems.In the present study, the metabolic processes is investigated by the reaction of 8-OHGua with PRPP catalyzed by HGPRT and Mg(Ⅱ).The evidence shows that the interaction between 8-OHGua and the enzyme is indeed taken place and 8-OHGMP is formed.

Abstract:
The SEM and AFM images of three TiO2 nano-films prepared at different conditions were obtained and transformed into digital format.The multifractal analyses for three films were made using height from a depth of thickness of film B and q from 55 to-55.The scale-invariance is very good for all lnχq(ε)~lnε plots and τ(q)~q plots at least close to three orders of magnitude.But the multifractal spectra f(a) of the films are quite distinct due to their different height distribution.
