AbstractChromatographic separation of methanolic extract of Baphia nitida heartwood gave two crystalline solids characterized as 3,9-dimethoxy-6aR,11aR-dihydro-6H-benzofuro(3,2-C)[1]benzopyran (also known as homopterocarpin) with molecular formula C17H16O4 (1.57% yield) and 2,4-dimethoxybenzaldehyde C9H10O3 (2.27% yield). Each of the isolated compounds showed a single spot on developed thin layer chromatographic plate under ultra-violet light (254 nm) and spray reagent (10% sulfuric acid in methanol solution). Structural elucidation was achieved using Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, one and two-dimension nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) techniques. Distortionless enhancement by polarization transfer-edited-heteronuclear single quantum coherence (DEPT-ed-HSQC) was also a useful tool that aided the characterization of the two secondary metabolites isolated from Baphia nitida heartwood.

Abstract A selective cleavage method for β-O-4 linkages (the γ-TTSA method) was introduced in previous works, which consists of four reaction steps: (1) γ-tosylation, (2) thioetherification, (3) sulfonylation, and (4) mild alkali degradation. This method was applied to the degradation of a lignin polymer model (dehydrogenation polymer, DHP) consisting of guaiacyl units. Each reaction step was followed by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy and heteronuclear single quantum coherence nuclear magnetic resonance (HSQC-NMR) spectroscopy. It was demonstrated that only the β-O-4 linkage was selectively cleaved by the γ-TTSA method, although other linkages, such as β-5 and β-β linkages, were also present in the DHP. Consequently, the γ-TTSA method is expected to be also useful for the degradation of native lignins.

Fourier transform infrared photoacoustic spectroscopy (FT-IR/PAS) has proved to be a useful tool for nondestructive testing of copper corrosion layer (patina) formed in the atmosphere. The samples cut from a piece of the roof of the Stockholm City Hall were examined without any additional pretreatment. The components of the patina—brochantite Cu4(OH)6SO4, antlerite Cu3(OH)4SO4, and basic cupric carbonate Cu2CO3(OH)6 · H2O—as well as some other minerals were identified. The photothermal beam deflection (PBD) method was used for independent photoacoustic characterization of the samples. The depth profiling capability of FT-IR/PAS was used to determine the degree of photoacoustic saturation of the spectral bands and to evaluate the depth distribution of the main patina components. The technique thus compares favorably with more common approaches of patina examination which are more expensive and require special sample preparation.

Copolymers based on 1, 4-diethoxybenzene (DEB) and 3, 4-ethylenedioxythiophene (EDOT) were electrochemically synthesized and characterized. The structures of the copolymers were established by 1H NMR and FT-IR spectroscopy. The results indicated the final product was a copolymer instead of a blend or a composite. The physical properties were systematically investigated by cyclic voltammetry, UV-vis absorption and fluorescence. The PL maximum of copolymers presented obviously red-shift to long wavelength as the feed ratio of EDOT in monomer mixture increased.

The objective of this paper was to prepare the composite of crefradine/montmorillionite in the method of solution intercalation. The drug load and intercalation rate varied with the drug concentration. X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transformed infrared (FT-IR) Spectroscopy, and thermal analysis (TG-DSC) were applied to characterize composite mentioned above. Together with drug release tests, results indicate cefradine intercalated into montmorillionite.The release profiles of cefradine/MMT in simulated gastric fluid (pH 1.2) and simulated intestinal fluid (pH 7.4) at 37°Cduring 10h are shown in Fig. 4. The amount of cefradine in the beginning 2h came up to 35% and 50%, and in the following time, cefradine released slowly. The release behaviors met the requirements of sustained release.
