Shows the scientific approaches of various authors to the study of the microstructure of ceramics, the purpose of which is to elucidate its structural organization at the micro- and nanoscale, as well as the influence of the microstructure on the complex of material properties. Various instrumental methods for studying ceramics (NMR spectroscopy, electron microscopy, х-ray structural analysis, etc.) are considered, the permissible capabilities of research methods and analysis of the results obtained with their correct interpretation are shown. The special role of theoretical modeling in understanding the structure of the considered ceramic materials is noted.

9,10-Di(1-naphthyl)phenanthrene (5 a) and 9,10-di(2-naphthyl)phenanthrene (5 b) have been synthesized. It is shown that 5 a and 5b both form two stable rotational (cis/trans) isomers with the naphthalene molecular planes perpendicular to the phenanthrene plane. In the case of 5 a the mixture of the two isomers has been separated in a preparative scale and each isomer characterized by e. g., NMR spectroscopy. Photocyclization of 5a leads to benzo[e]phenanthro[1,2,3,4-ghi]perylene (9) while 5 b yields phenanthro[9,10-i]pentahelicene (14); both hydrocarbons have not been previously described in the literature. The observed selectivities of photocyclization are explained on the basis of the structures and stabilities of the initially formed photoproducts (dihydro structures 15 and 14 a). The role of intramolecular non-radiative singlet-singlet energy transfer (naphthalene → phenanthrene) as competing with photocyclization is discussed in detail.

During acute respiratory acidosis, cardiac contractile pressure first drops but then recovers substantially. We investigated the mechanism of this response in isovolumic perfused ferret hearts. Developed pressure (DP) and its first derivative (dP/dt) were measured before, during, and after hypercapnia induced by equilibrating the perfusate with 15% CO2, rather than the 5% CO2 used in control. Intramyocardial pH (pHi) was measured by phosphorus nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. After the onset of hypercapnia (1-2 min), DP and +dP/dt reached minimal mean values of 37 +/- 2 and 39 +/- 3% of control, respectively. This early decline in myocardial contactility was followed by a partial recovery such that DP and +dP/dt had returned to 66 +/- 6 and 62 +/- 4% of control, respectively, by 14 min of hypercapnia. pHi fell from 7.17 +/- 0.01 in control to 6.88 +/- 0.11 after approximately 2 min of hypercapnia. Thereafter, pHi recovered linearly with a mean slope of 0.011 +/- 0.003 pH U/min. Ethylisopropylamiloride (10(-6) M), a blocker of Na(+)-H+ exchange, prevented the recovery of pHi during hypercapnia and attenuated the recovery of contractility by 40%. We conclude that the recovery of contractility during respiratory acidosis at least partially reflects an underlying recovery of pHi mediated by Na(+)-H+ exchange.
