    The complex (NH4)4[Mo∧O2(S,SHmal)2]·[MoΔO2(R,RHmal)2] was prepared from the reaction of ammonium molybdate and R,Smalic acid at pH=2——3. It was characterized by elementary analysis, conductivity measurement, optical rotation, IRand Xray diffraction. The complex crystallizes in monoclinic space group P21/a with unit cell parameters: a=0.8061(2) nm, b=1.3286(2) nm, c=1.3232(2) nm, β=91.82(2)°, V=1.4164(9) nm3, Z=2, Dc=2.008 g·cm-3, F(000)=864, μ=9.700 cm-1 for 1902 reflections with I≥3σ(I). The molybdenum atom is coordinated by two bidentate homochiral malic acid in distorted octahedron, while the βcarboxyl groups remain uncomplexed. The crystal contains two isolated monomeric malatomolybdates(Ⅵ) anions in the configurations of ∧S,S and ΔR,R. The two enantiomeric anions result in the formation of racemic compound. There is no evidence for the other diastereoisomers like (NH4)2[Mo∧O2(R,SHmal)2], (NH4)2[MoΔO2(R,SHmal)2], (NH4)2[Mo∧O2(R,RHmal)2] and (NH4)2[MoΔO2(S,SHmal)2] in this experiment.

    The synthesis of Atype zeolite membranes on porous α Al2O3 supports via the method of seeding plus secondary hydrothermal crystallization has been studied. The seed layers, which were prepared from colloidal Atype zeolite synthesized from the reaction mixture of n[(TMA)2O]: n (SiO2): n (Al2O3): n (Na2O): n (H2O)=13.4:11.25:1.8:0.3:700, were treated by steam of ammonia to inhibit the formation of cracks when dried. Compact zeolite membranes constituted with multipletwined zeolite crystals were accessed by hydrothermal growth of seed layers in the reaction sol of n (Na2O): n (Al2O3): n (SiO2): n (H2O)=3:1:1:800. In highly alkaline hydrothermal solutions, seed layers tended to dissolve and loose zeolite membranes with many defects were obtained. The gas permeanbility on Atype zeolite membrane dried at 393 K, in which water molecular still inhabited the zeolitic channels, was quite low, suggesting that the membrane was close to free of defects. Defects were formed mainly due to different thermal expansion coefficients between α Al2O3 support and zeolite membrane when the calcinations at 823 Kwas carried out to free the channel of membrane zeolites.

    The activity of αamylase from porcine pancreas was enhanced under the treatment by Ce3+, Cd2+ and Pb2+ at a low concentration (0.5-5 μmol/L) , but was inhibited by Ce3+, Cd2+ and Pb2+ at a high concentration(4 or 5 μmol/Labove). Ce3+, Cd2+ and Pb2+ at a high concentration could competitively displace Ca2+ from αamylase. The equilibrium dialysis demonstrated that αamylase have five Ca2+binding sites with different affinities. The fluorescence titration showed that Ce3+, Cd2+ and Pb2+ are not only bound to Ca2+binding sites, but also bound to other sites of αamylase, and resulted in the αamylase conformational changes.

    Gold nanoparticles, prepared by the Frens method, have been electrostatically assemblied onto mica substrates treated with different concentration of MnCl2 solution. The assemblies have been investigated by means of atomic force microscopy(AFM). The immersing time of bare mica in Mn2+ solution and the concentration of Mn2+ solution both have significant effect on the assembled process of gold nanoparticulate monolayer. The coverage of gold particles shows periodical evolution on the immersing time of mica in MnCl2 solution. The higher is the concentration of MnCl2, the shorter is the time to attain maximum coverage. An ionexchanged and layerdissociated mechanism is put forth to explain the experimental results above.

    The electrode process of antitumor daunomycin has been investigated by using in situ spectroelectrochemical techniques, with the aid of cyclic voltammetry and infrared spectrophotometry. Possible mechanisms of its reduction processes have been discussed where the concentration makes a critical effect. When the DRNconcentration is low, two successive one electron reduction steps are demonstrated, which was followed by an aglycon elimination reaction, and then, the product 7 deoxydaunomycinone received one electron to form 7 deoxysemidaunomycione free radical, such radicals can disproportionate or associate easily. But if high, only one electron reduction happened to get the corresponding semiquinone radicals, which can also associate rapidly.

    Anovel and simple method for the in situ preparation of monolithic molecularly imprinted flowthrough polymers is described. The polymers were prepared inside UVtransparent fused silica capillaries by photoinitiated polymerization of a mixture of caffeine as the template, methacrylic acid as the functional monomer , trimethylolpropane trimethacrylate as the crosslinking agent in the presence of a porogenic solvent consisting of toluene and isooctane . Scanning electron micrographs confirmed the presence of the clusters of globules separated by large pores on the monolithic structure. The effectiveness of the imprinted polymer monolithic column was demonstrated in microcolumn liquid chromatography(μHPLC)mode by the screening of caffeine from a mixture of four structural analogues, the resolution factor Rs of 2.57 and 2.97 for the separation of caffeine against theophylline and theobromine, respectively, were obtained, while the nonimprinted column showed no specific selectivity. It is considered that the template was effectively imprinted in monolithic polymer by photoinitiated in situ polymerization at a low temperature. Several factors such as the molar ratio of the functional monomer to the imprint molecule and polymerization time affecting the flowthrough properties of a MIPcolumn were also investigated. The results show that the obtained columns exhibit higher resolution and column efficiency against the structural analogues than do columns packed with MIPprepared by bulk polymerization and columns packed with continuous molecularly imprinted polymer rod prepared by in stiu method.

    In this paper, two types of chiral ligands 1 and 2 containing pyridinyl moiety and oxazolines bridged by a methylene group were investigated in the palladium catalyzed substitution of 1,3 diphenyl 2 propenyl acetate with dimethyl malonate. Ligands 2, which have two methyl groups at the bridged methylene, gave higher enantioselectivities than their unsubstituted analogues 1. This "methyl effect" increased while the substituent on the C4 in the oxazoline ring was changed from benzyl to tert butyl. Despite of that the "methyl effect" was found in the palladium catalyzed enantioselective allylic substitution, it was obviously significant for assisting rational design of chiral ligands and catalysts in other asymmetric reaction.

    The tyrosine Ophosphorylation via AthertonTodd reaction, which was a classical reaction for phosphorylation amines, was first studied in this paper. Reaction of BocTyrOCH3, which was selected as model substrate, with three dialkyl Hphosphonate diester in the presence of CCl4 and triethylamine produced the corresponding tyrosine Ophosphorylation products in a high yield(over 80). The reaction was conducted in anhydrous THFsolution and monitored by 31P NMRand TLC. Then reaction of BocTyrOCH3 with a complicated Hphosphonate diester, O-3'-acetylthymidin-5'-yl Oisopropyl Hphosphonate diester, also gave a good result and this would be an alternative approach for the synthesis of nucleotide Otyrosine (or tyrosine containing peptide) conjugate. Further, the successful Ophosphoration of three tyrosine containing protected dipeptides, BocTyrValOCH3, BocAlaTyrOCH3, BocTyrTyrOCH3, with diisopropyl Hphosphonate diester demonstrated the effectiveness of the method.

    The calculations have been performed for model systems MCOMn+1(M=Ru, Rh, Pd; M1n+=Na+, K+, Mg2+) by Gaussian programs at the HF/LANL2DZlevel. The influences of C—Obond and its mechanism have been studied after the COadsorbed on the main group metal cation M1n+ promoted transition metal catalysts. And the products of COhydrogenation on these catalysts have been inferred. The calculations showed that the different interaction positions of the main group metal cation promoter and the various kinds of metal cation promoters both cause the changes of catalyst activity and selectivity. When M1n+ cations affect the COthrough the Oatom of CO, the C—Obond is weakened largely and the products of COhydrogenation over these catalysts will shift to hydrocarbons. When the M1n+ cations affect the COthrough the transition metal atom, the CObond is weakened slightly, so it is beneficial to form oxygenates. And there is no activity when M1n+ cations bonded on the side of CO. It can also be concluded that the main group metal cation with stronger ability to accept the electrons may be a better promoter.

    The effect of SO2 on the catalytic oxidation of NOover γAl2O3 support was studied at temperature of 423 K. It was found that the activity of γAl2O3 for the oxidation of NOto NO2 was enhanced temporarily in the presence of SO2. The adsorption capacity of NOand SO2 was also promoted by each other. The interaction between γAl2O3 and SO2 was discussed by using of various material characterization techniques such as TPD, FTIR, XRD, BET, solid acid detection and so on. After long time reaction in the presence of SO2, no solid nitrate and sulfate were detected in γAl2O3, but the Lacid and Bacid concentrations were increased. TPDspectra show that the desorption peak of NO2 species in the range of higher temperatures mounts up after SO2 coadsorption with NOand O2 on γAl2O3. FTIRresults indicate that different kinds of adsorption species are present on the surface of γAl2O3 and the main NOadsorption species are changed by SO2 coadsorption. An active surface species, which may be responsible for the higher oxidation activity of γAl2O3 in the presence of SO2, is supposed to be formed on the surface of γAl2O3 via SO2, NO, O2 and surfaceadsorbed hydroxide. The activity of γAl2O3 decreases while the surface of γAl2O3 is covered gradually by a strong adsorption of SO2.

    Molecular mechanics simulation is used to study the static behavior of a metal Cu monolayer on the trilayer model of pyrometallic dianhydrideoxydianiline(PMDAODA). It is shown that the monolayer forms aggregates on the surface of PMDAODA. The reason is that the cohesive interaction between Cu atoms is stronger than the adhesive interaction between the Cu monolayer and the surface of PMDAODA. In the cohesion, the van der Waals interaction plays an important role, whereas in the adhesion, the electrostatic interaction is a dominant factor. Furthermore, by means of molecular dynamics simulation, the temperature influence on the interaction of Cu/PMDAODAinterface is studied.

    Areview is presented on coupling of dehydrogenation of ethane with reversed watergas shift reaction for ethylene synthesis. The SiO2 and Silicalite2 supported chromium, manganese and iron oxide catalysts were found to exhibit a high performance in the dehydrogenation of ethane in the presence of CO2. CO2 can be activated by the surface basicity. The results show that the synergetic action of acidity and basicity is important to the increase of the catalytic activity. The function of CO2 is to abstract H2 and to resistant coke formation during the dehydrogenation of ethane. The reaction mechanism and effects of reaction condition on the dehydrogenation of ethane were also evaluated.

    ZnO/SiO2 and ZnOSiO2 catalysts were prepared by the impregnation and solgel method, respectively. The characterization of the catalysts by XPSand FTIRindicated that much "free" zinc oxide and unreacted Si—OHexisted on the surface of ZnO/SiO2 sample. As for ZnOSiO2 solgel catalyst, the corresponding phenomena were not observed. The prepared samples were also used as the catalysts for decomposition of 2butanol. Ahigh selectivity for dehydrogenation was observed over the supported catalyst. However, a high selectivity for dehydration was shown over the ZnOSiO2 solgel catalyst. The opposite selectivity for dehydration or dehydrogenation observed over the two kinds of catalysts may be just because of the different surface structures of the catalysts.

    By using OCMOSiH3(M=Ru, Rh, Pd) as models to imitate the chemisorption of COon the silicasupported catalysts, the geometries and frequencies have been performed for the complexes by Gaussian programs, at the B3LYP/LANL1DZlevel. An influence of the C—Obond has been studied and the support effects of silica are obtained. The support effects of silica make the COfrequency an upward shift, which means that the weakened degree of C—Odecreases and the bond strength of C—Oincreases naturally compared to those of the nonsilicasupported catalysts. So the products on the silicasupported catalysts shift to the oxygenates.

    Aseries of polystyrenebased strongly acidic cation exchange resins with different ion exchange capacities were synthesized via the reversedsulfonation of a commercial polystyrenebased strongly acidic cation exchange resin(001×7) or sulfonation of styrenedivinylbenzene copolymer. The chromatographic separation of alanine and valine or valine and leucine on columns packed with these resins was carried out. The results showed that the chromatographic properties of the two kinds of the abovementioned resins on the separation of alanine and valine were almost the same. The retention volume of alanine was less than that of valine on the same column with various ion exchange capacities, and the retention volume of valine was less than that of leucine on the column with the ion exchange capacity of 1.67 mmol/mL. The retention volume of alanine decreased when the ion exchange capacities decreased from 2.02 to 1.00 mmol/mL. The retention volume of valine slightly decreased when the ion exchange capacities decreased from 2.02 to 1.67 mmol/mLand remained almost unchanged when the ion exchange capacities decreased from 1.67 to 1.00 mmol/mL. These results indicated that the interaction between neutral amino acids and the polystyrenebased strongly acidic cation exchange resin includes ionic and hydrophobic interactions. And there may be synergy between the two interactions. The better separation efficiency of neutral amino acid may be obtained by using the resin with a lower ion exchange capacity.

    In this paper, the induction effect of the interface between the third phase(such as the substrates, the foreign substances) and polymer blend system on the formation of the gradient morphology in polymer blend was studied. It was found that all the third phases(such as the substrates, the inserted films, the set foreign particles in this case) could lead to the formation of the gradient morphology in PP/EVAc blends by annealing. In other words, the particle size and the content of the EVAc dispersed phase gradually increased from the bulk to the interface between the third phase and the polymer blend system. When the two PIfilms were inserted into the blend system, the effect of the distance between the two inserted PIfilms on the morphology of LDPE/EVAc blend was also investigated. It was found that the interfaceinduced gradient structures began to overlap when the distance of the two inserted films was less than two times of the expectant formed thickness of the gradient morphology for the case of the individual PIfilm inserted. If the distance of the two films was smaller, all the droplets of the dispersed phase fastly grew simultaneously instead of forming the gradient morphology. It should be caused by the mutual interference of the induction effect of the interface between the two PIfilms and the blend system. This corresponds to the case of the dispersed droplet coarsening process under 2-dimentional conditions in polymer blend systems. All the results above supported the conclusion we presented in our previous paper, i.e., the existence of interface between the third phase and the polymer blend greatly accelerated the coarsening process of the droplets in the polymer blend.

    An interpolymer complexation formed by polymer chains bearing complementary proton donor and acceptor was studied. In this study, poly(styrenecooctyl acrylatecoacrylic acid) as proton donating polymer(PDP) and poly(styrenecooctyl acrylateco4vinylpyridine) as proton accepting polymer(PAP) with various macromolecular chain compositions were prepared by emulsion copolymerization. Complexed solutions formed by PDPand PAPwere prepared, and reduced viscosity enhancement of the complexed solutions were studied with viscometry. The effects of the polymer solution concentration, copolymer compositions and solvent nature on the interpolymer interactions were investigated through a comparison of the reduced viscosity enhancement factor R of different complexed solutions. The results showed that the reduced viscosities of PDP/PAPcomplexed solutions were higher than weighted average of their constituents and R increased with increasing complexed polymer solution concentration generally. With the change in mole fraction of AA(xAA) in blends, there existed a Rmax indicating the strongest interaction between PDPand PAP. In toluene as an inertia solvent not impacting on acidbase interaction, due to steric shield effect of side chains in octyl acrylate unit and self association of carboxyl in PDPaltogether, mole fraction of AAcorresponding to Rmax, xAA,max, increased gradually up to 0.5 as OAcontent decreased in PDPand relatively insensitive to composition of PAP. Whereas in THFas solvent, xAA,max was generally independent of composition of PDPand approximated to 0.5 due to THFbeing capable of destroying interpolymer interaction as well as selfassociation of carboxyl. In addition, the strength of interpolymer interaction between PDPand PAPwas increased with increasing OAcontent in component copolymers.

    The micelles behavior of amphiphilic block copolymer P(Styrenebacrylic acid), in aqueous solvent was studied by dynamic light scattering and TEMtechniques. The diameters of micelle decreased and then increased with the decrease of the pHof the solution, and the similar phenomenon was also detected with the increase of the concentration of the calcium ion. Without added acid, the micelles were small spheres of low polydispersity with an average diameter 48 nm. When the value of pHwas less than2, the micelles were unstable. It was found that the Ca2+ was linked with the carboxyl in the same micelle when the concentration of the CaCl2 was less than0.2 mg/mL. The diameter of micelle was smaller than the one without Ca2+. The Ca2+ was linked with the carboxyl between the different micelles when the concentration of the CaCl2 was more than0.5 mg/mLand the micelle was unstable. The diameters of micelles(from 37 nm to 100 nm) can be controlled by adding an appropriate concentration of CaCl2 between0.20.5 mg/mL.

    Thermal spectra of liquid crystal, pndodecyloxy benzoic acid were collected at 26-150 ℃ by FTIRmicrospectroscopy. Conformational apparent enthalpy differences ΔH in phase transitions have been determined by van't Hoff equation at constant pressure and plotted with temperature. Compared to DSC, these enthalpies plot with temperature could be divided into three types. The first one was long alkyl chain group which has only one apparent endothermic enthalpy peak at 95 ℃. The second one was partial carbonyl and aromatic ether groups has three endothermic enthalpy peaks in the phase transition. The third type including benzoyl group which has one exothermic enthalpy peak at 95 ℃ and a broad endothermic enthalpy peak in the range of 128-140 ℃. These differences indicated that oxybenzoic acid part of dodecyloxy benzoic acid recrystallized to cycle dimer during alkyl chain melting in crystalsmectic phase transition.
