Stabilization Of Polystyrene By Friedel-Crafts Chemistry: Effect Of Position Of Alcohol And The Catalyst, Jin Zhu, Michael A. Mckinney, Charles Wilkie Nov 1999

Stabilization Of Polystyrene By Friedel-Crafts Chemistry: Effect Of Position Of Alcohol And The Catalyst, Jin Zhu, Michael A. Mckinney, Charles Wilkie

Chemistry Faculty Research and Publications

Polystyrene has been copolymerized with 4-vinylbenzyl alcohol, 4-(2-hydroxyethyl)styrene, and 4-(3-hydroxypropyl)styrene and it has been shown that thermal cross-linking of these copolymers is dependent upon the alcohol content. When the alcohol content is low, no thermal cross-linking is observed. When various phosphate esters are present as catalysts with these low alcohol content copolymers, cross-linking is observed at temperatures of about 250°C but not at lower temperatures. Cross-linking enhances the thermal stability of the copolymers. Studies of the thermal stability of the copolymers and their blends with the catalysts have been performed using thermogravimetric analysis and thermogravimetric analysis coupled to Fourier transform …

Chemistry Faculty Publications

The interaction of 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(N-methylpyridinium-4-yl)p (T4MPyP(4+)) with the oligonucleotide DNA duplex [d(GCACGTGC)](2) was studied by two-dimensional (1)H NMR spectroscopy, optical absorbance, circular dichroism, and molecular dynamics simulation employing particle mesh Ewald methods. T4MPyP(4+) is one of the largest aromatic molecules for which intercalative binding to DNA has been proposed, although this has been called into question by recent X-ray crystallographic work [Lipscomb et al. (1996) Biochemistry 35, 2818-2823]. T4MPyP(4+) binding to [d(GCACGTGC)](2) produced a single set of (mostly) upfield-shifted DNA resonances in slow exchange with the resonances of the free DNA. Intra- and intermolecular NOEs observed in the complex showed that …

Evaluation Of The Enantiomeric Composition Of Amino Acids In Tobacco, John P. Kullman, Xianghong Chen, Daniel W. Armstrong

Chemistry Faculty Research & Creative Works

Despite the fact that several studies have reported the concentrations of various free amino acids in tobacco, their enantiomeric composition is unknown. Both the absolute and enantiomeric compositions of proline, alanine, asparagine, aspartic acid, valine, methionine, leucine, and phenylalanine were determined for three strains of tobacco leaf, three types of smokeless tobacco, and six different blended filtered and nonfiltered reference cigarettes. Some of the highest levels of D-amino acids ever found in agricultural products were observed. Possible mechanisms for the production of these D-amino acids are considered. The relevance of D-amino acids in tobacco is discussed.

Validity Of The Independent-Particle Approximation In X-Ray Photoemission: The Exception, Not The Rule, D. Hansen, Oliver Hemmers, H. Wang, Dennis W. Lindle, P. Focke, I. A. Sellin, Clemens Heske, H. S. Chakraborty, P. C. Deshmukh, S. T. Manson

Environmental Studies Faculty Publications

A combined experimental and theoretical study of argon valence photoionization illustrates the discovery of the broad lack of validity of the independent-particle approximation (IPA) for x-ray photoemission. In addition to previously known breakdowns of the IPA, which are limited to high photon energies and regions very near threshold, the observed breakdown in photoionization at intermediate energies demonstrates generally that the IPA is valid only in very restricted domains. These restrictions are expected to be relevant throughout the periodic table, with consequences for a wide variety of applications.

Micromagnetics Simulation Of Nanoshaped Iron Elements: Comparison With Experiment, Ngocnga Dao, S. R. Homer, Scott L. Whittenburg Sep 1999

Micromagnetics Simulation Of Nanoshaped Iron Elements: Comparison With Experiment, Ngocnga Dao, S. R. Homer, Scott L. Whittenburg

Chemistry and Biochemistry Faculty Publications

A micromagnetics simulation has been conducted on nanostructured magnetic elements of iron in order to investigate the effect of the shape of the element on magnetic properties, such as domain formation and hysteresis loops. These results are compared with recent experimental studies. The results display an impressive agreement with both the experimentally observed magnetic domains in individual particles as well as the shape of the hysteresis loops. The simulation results then explain features in the hysteresis loops in terms of vortice formation and motion.

Examination Of Ionic Liquids And Their Interaction With Molecules, When Used As Stationary Phases In Gas Chromatography, Daniel W. Armstrong, Lingfeng He, Yan Song Liu

Chemistry Faculty Research & Creative Works

Stable room-temperature ionic liquids (RTILs) have been used as novel reaction solvents. They can solubilize complex polar molecules such as cyclodextrins and glycopeptides. Their wetting ability and viscosity allow them to be coated onto fused silica capillaries. Thus, 1-butyl-3- methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate and the analogous chloride salt can be used as stationary phases for gas chromatography (GC). Using inverse GC, one can examine the nature of these ionic liquids via their interactions with a variety of compounds. The Rohrschneider-McReynolds constants were determined for both ionic liquids and a popular commercial polysiloxane stationary phase. Ionic liquid stationary phases seem to have a …

Contour Temperature Programmed Desorption For Monitoring Multiple Chemical Reaction Products, Charles C. Chusuei, J. V. De La Peña, John A. Schreifels Sep 1999

Contour Temperature Programmed Desorption For Monitoring Multiple Chemical Reaction Products, Charles C. Chusuei, J. V. De La Peña, John A. Schreifels

Chemistry Faculty Research & Creative Works

A simple method for obtaining a comprehensive overview of major compounds desorbing from the surface during temperature programmed desorption (TPD) experiments is outlined. Standard commercially available equipment is used to perform the experiment. The method is particularly valuable when high molecular mass compounds are being studied. The acquisition of contour temperature programmed desorption (CTPD) spectra, sampling 50-dalton mass ranges at a time in the thermal desorption experiments, is described and demonstrated for the interaction of benzotriazole adsorbed on a Ni(111) surface. Conventional two-dimensional TPD spectra can be extracted from the CTPD by taking vertical slices of the contour.

Thermal Decomposition Of Cross-Linked Polybutadiene And Its Copolymers, David D. Jiang, Galina F. Levchik, Sergei V. Levchik, Charles Wilkie Sep 1999

Thermal Decomposition Of Cross-Linked Polybutadiene And Its Copolymers, David D. Jiang, Galina F. Levchik, Sergei V. Levchik, Charles Wilkie

Chemistry Faculty Research and Publications

Polybutadiene and two copolymers containing butadiene and styrene have been cross-linked by thermal processes, by the use of initiators in solution, and by intimately mixing an initiator with the polymer and then heating this blend. The most efficient cross-linking process is the use of an intimate blend of the initiator and polymer. Most cross-linking processes lower the onset temperature of degradation, presumably because chain scission reactions occur simultaneously with cross-linking, while also increasing the fraction of non-volatile residue which is produced. It is believed that the density of cross-links is responsible for the increased yield of non-volatile residue.

Comparative Molecular Field Analysis (Comfa) Of Phenyl Ring Substituted Methylphenidates, Milind Misra Aug 1999

Comparative Molecular Field Analysis (Comfa) Of Phenyl Ring Substituted Methylphenidates, Milind Misra

Theses

Comparative Molecular Field Analysis (CoMFA) was performed on 30 methylphenidate analogues having phenyl ring substituents at the 2-, 3-, and 4-positions in an attempt to explain the structure-activity relationships of the analogues. Several CoMFA studies were carried out using different conformations of methylphenidate as the template structures for the corresponding alignment rules. The identification of the bioactive conformation was variously based on the interfeature distances in WIN 35,428, on cluster analysis, and on a comparison of active methylphenidate analogues. The sensitivity of the models to various CoMFA parameters was compared. These parameters included altering the size and spacing of the …

Deactivation Of Nickel Oxide/Hydroxide To Electrooxidation Of H 2po - 2 Anions On Nickel Electrodes In Alkaline Solutions, Taixiang Jiang, Huihuang Wu Aug 1999

Deactivation Of Nickel Oxide/Hydroxide To Electrooxidation Of H 2po - 2 Anions On Nickel Electrodes In Alkaline Solutions, Taixiang Jiang, Huihuang Wu

Journal of Electrochemistry

Electrooxidation of hypophosphite anions on polycrystalline nickel in alkaline solutions has been investigated by cyclic voltammetry and open circuit potential measurements.The results are explained based on the mechanism that the first step of hypophosphite oxidation is the adsorption of hypophosphite ions on nickel,followed by the homolysis of its hydrogen bond with the formation of radicals.The oxidation of hypophosphite on nickel in alkaline medium occurs at lower potentials between ca.-0.8 V—-1.1 V(SCE)and phosphite ion is the only oxidation product.There is no indication of hypophosphite oxidation at higher potentials.Severe deactivation of the surface occurs when the nickel surface is covered with surface …
