Absence of strong interaction corrections to the axial anomaly in the σ model

Aromatic chloroformates Ib-Ie were shown to exist in the ap conformation, in agreement with aliphatic chloroformates, i.e. the alkyl group is situated cis to the carbonyl oxygen atom as it is the case in all esters. While 4-nitrophenyl chloroformate (Ie) is in this conformation in crystal, in solution at most several tenths of percent of the sp conformation may be populated at room temperature and in nonpolar solvents only. A new analysis of dipole moments explained the previous puzzling results and demonstrated the impossibility to determine the conformation by this single method, in consequence of the strong interaction of adjoining bonds. If, however, the ap conformation is once proven, the dipole moments reveal some features of the electron distribution on the functional group, characterized by the enhanced polarity of the C-Cl bond and reduced polarity of the C=O bond. This is in agreement with the observed bond lengths and angles.

Conductometric Study

Abstract Interaction of sulphone based reactive dyes, designated as dye-1 and dye-2, with cationic micellar system of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB), has been investigated by spectroscopic and conductometeric measurements. Efficiency of the selected micellar systems is assessed by the values of binding constant (K b ), partition coefficient (K x ) and respective Gibbs energies. Critical micelle concentration (CMC) of surfactant, electrostatic and hydrophobic interactions as well as polarity of the medium plays significant role in this phenomenon. The negative values of Gibbs energies of binding (∆G b ) and partition (∆G p ) predicts the feasibility and spontaneity of respective processes. Similarly negative values of ∆G m and ∆H m and positive values of ∆S m , calculated from conductometeric data, further, revealed the exothermicity, spontaneity and, thus, stability of system. The results, herein, have disclosed the strong interaction between dye and surfactant molecules. The dye-2 has been observed to be solubilized to greater extent, as compared to dye 1, due to strong interaction ith hydrophiles of CTAB and accommodation of its molecules in palisade layer of micelle closer to the micelle/water interface.

Aging Health

Abstract Persistent stress of external or internal origin accelerates aging, increases risk of aging related health disorders, and shortens lifespan. Stressors activate stress response genes, and their products collectively influence traits. The variability of stressors and responses to them contribute to trait heterogeneity, which may cause the failure of clinical trials for drug candidates. The objectives of this paper are: to address the heterogeneity issue; to evaluate collective interaction effects of genetic factors on Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and longevity using HRS data; to identify differences and similarities in patterns of genetic interactions within two genders; and to compare AD related genetic interaction patterns in HRS and LOADFS data. To reach these objectives we: selected candidate genes from stress related pathways affecting AD/longevity; implemented logistic regression model with interaction term to evaluate effects of SNP-pairs on these traits for males and females; constructed the novel interaction polygenic risk scores for SNPs, which showed strong interaction potential, and evaluated effects of these scores on AD/longevity; and compared patterns of genetic interactions within the two genders and within two datasets. We found there were many genes involved in highly significant interactions that were the same and that were different within the two genders. The effects of interaction polygenic risk scores on AD were strong and highly statistically significant. These conclusions were confirmed in analyses of interaction effects on longevity trait using HRS data. Comparison of HRS to LOADFS data showed that many genes had strong interaction effects on AD in both data sets.

4A Zeolite

A set of three commercial zeolites (13X, 5A, and 4A) of two distinct shapes have been characterized: (i) pure zeolite powders and (ii) extruded spherical beads composed of pure zeolite powders and an unknown amount of binder used during their preparation process. The coupling of gas porosimetry experiments using argon at 87 K and CO2 at 273 K allowed determining both the amount of the binder and its effect on adsorption properties. It was evidenced that the beads contain approximately 25 wt% of binder. Moreover, from CO2 adsorption experiments at 273 K, it could be inferred that the binder present in both 13X and 5A zeolites does not interact with the probe molecule. However, for the 4A zeolite, pore filling pressures were shifted and strong interaction with CO2 was observed leading to irreversible adsorption of the probe. These results have been compared to XRD, IR spectroscopy, and ICP-AES analysis. The effect of the binder in shaped zeolite bodies can thus have a crucial impact on applications in adsorption and catalysis.
