As an extension of work on pendent phenylethynyl-containing imide oligomers, three new diamines containing pendent phenylethynyl groups were prepared and characterized. These diamines were used to prepare pendent and pendent and terminal phenylethynyl imide oligomers via the amide acid route in N-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone at a calculated number average molecular weight of 5000 g mol−1. The pendent phenylethynyl groups were randomly distributed along the oligomer backbone and provided a means of controlling the distance between reactive sites. The imide oligomers were characterized and thermally cured, and the cured polymers evaluated as thin films and compared with materials of similar composition prepared from 3,5-diamino-4′-phenylethynylbenzophenone. This work was performed as part of a continuing research effort to develop structural resins for potential aeronautical applications.

Abstract Alternating poly(ester amide)s 6a - e were prepared by polycondensation of α-carboxyl-ω-hydroxyamides 3a - e which were obtained by aminolysis of glutaric anhydride (1) and α,ω-aminoalcohols, H2N-(CH2)x-OH (x = 2 - 6) 2a - e. The polycondensation was performed in dimethylformamide solution using a carbodiimide as activating agent, or in bulk with Bu2Sn(OMe)2, Ti(OBu)4 and Sn(octoate)2 as a catalyst. For the polycondensation in bulk, the influence of catalyst and of temperature on the number-average molecular weight was studied. 1H NMR analyses of the poly(ester amide)s clearly show the alternating microstructure. The poly(ester amide)s from glutaric anhydride and the homologous series of α,ω-aminoalcohols are semicrystalline materials; their melting points show the odd/even effect observed for other poly(ester amide)s.

The study of polyurethanes are of continuing interest due to their excellent physical properties. In this study, the reaction kinetics and polymerization conditions in two-step process of toluene diisocyante (TDI) and polypropylene glycol (PPG) with organo-tin mixed catalyst were investigated by di-n-butylamine back-titration. It was showed that the reaction obeyed the second-order equation of step-growth polymerization, the rate constants of TDI and PPG reaction at 50, 60 and 70°C were 0.0922, 0.3373 and 0.5828 kg•mol-1•min-1，respectively. The activation energy obtained from the result was 71.63 kJ•mol-1. The number average molecular weight (Mn) and molecular-weight distribution (Mw/Mn) of the polyurethane were 45175 and 1.53, respectively, and the content of hydrogen bonding in the N-H group from Fourier transform infrared spectrum (FTIR) was 80.75%, which manifested that the large amount of N-H were present in hydrogen bonding.

The 3′ hydroxyl end of 28S L-rRNA (major RNA species of the larger subribosomal particle) was labelled by coupling its 2-hydroxy-3-naphthoic acid hydrazine with diazotized [3H]aniline. The RNA was hydrolysed partially with ribonuclease T1 and fractionated on Sephadex G-200. The results show that a highly structured segment with 78% G+C content and a number-average molecular weight of at least 1.0×10(5)-1.8×10(5) is located at the 3′ hydroxyl end of the 28S rRNA molecule.

N,N'-Dimethylol thiourea-formaldehyde (DMTUF) resin having the methylol group (CH2OH) has been prepared and characterized. The condensation of DMTUF resin with Phenol (P) was carried out in the presence of alcoholic alkali catalyst at varying ratios of DMTUF: P, namely 1:1, 1:1.5 and 1:2. The resultant DMTUFP resin was characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectral studies, number average molecular weight (M¯n) estimated by non-aqueous conductometric titration, and thermo gravimetry. The curing study of DMTUFP resin with hexamethylene tetramine (HMTA) was monitored by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and kinetic parameters were evaluated. Glass-reinforced composites based on the DMTUFP-HMTA system have also been prepared and characterized.

1. The ribosomal subunits of one thermoacidophilic archaebacterium (Caldariella acidophila) and of two reference eubacterial species (Bacillus acidocaldarius, Escherichia coli) were compared with respect to ribosome mass and protein composition by (i) equilibrium-density sedimentation of the particles in CsCl and (ii) gel-electrophoretic estimations of the molecular weights of the protein and the rRNA. 2. By either procedure, it is estimated that synthetically active archaebacterial 30S subunits (52% protein by wt.) are appreciably richer in protein than the corresponding eubacterial particles (31% protein by wt.) 3. The greater protein content of the archaebacterial 30S subunits is accounted for by both a larger number and a greater average molecular weight of the subunit proteins; specifically, C. acidophila 30S subunits yield 28 proteins whose combined mass is 0.6×10(6) Da, compared with 20 proteins totalling 0.35×10(6) Da mass for eubacterial 30S subunits. 4. No differences in protein number are detected among the large subunits, but C. acidophila 50S subunits exhibit a greater number-average molecular weight of their protein components than do eubacterial 50S particles. 5. Particle weights estimated by either buoyant-density data, or molecular weights of rRNA plus protein, agree to within less than 2%. By either procedure C. acidophila 30S subunits 1.15×10(6) Da mass) are estimated to be about 300 000 Da heavier than their eubacterial counterparts (0.87×10(6) Da mass); a smaller difference. 0.15×10(6) Da, exists between the archaebacterial and the eubacterial 50S subunits (respectively 1.8×10(6) and 1.65×10(6) Da). It is concluded that the heavier-than-eubacterial mass of the C. acidophila ribosomes resides principally in their smaller subunits.
