The ability of osthol (OST) to recognize mercury ions in aqueous solution was studied using fluorescence, UV–vis spectrophotometry, mass spectrometry, and 1H NMR spectroscopy, and the recognition mechanism is discussed. The results showed that OST and Hg2+ can form a complex with a stoichiometric ratio of 1:1. The binding constant was 1.552 × 105 L∙mol−1, having a highly efficient and specific selectivity for Hg2+. The fluorescence intensity of OST showed a good linear correlation with the Hg2+ concentration (6.0 × 10−5 to 24.0 × 10−5 mol∙L−1, R 2 = 0.9954), and the detection limit of the probe was 5.04 × 10−8 mol∙L−1, which can be used for the determination of Hg2+ traces.

A fluorimetric study on the spectral characteristics and acid-base behavior of 7-hydroxymethylnalidixic acid has been performed. The host–guest complexation process between γ-cyclodextrin and 7-hydroxymethylnalid ixic acid has also been investigated by fluorescence spectroscopy. Scatchard and Benesi-Hildebr and methods have been applied to determine the stoichiometry of the complex, and a 1:1 stoichiometric ratio has been established. A K1 = 118 ± 25 M−1 formation constant has been calculated for the inclusion complex, by using the changes produced on the fluorescence of 7-hydroxymethylnalid ixic acid, when it is included on the hydrophobic cyclodextrin cavity. A fluorimetric method of determination of 7-hydroxymethylnalid ixic acid, in γ-cyclodextrin aqueous solution, has been proposed. The analytical parameters and detection and quantification limits of the method have been determined.

Abstract A gas chromatographic/mass spectrometric (GC/MS) method for determination of combined residues of the fungicide metalaxyl and its metabolites in urine containing the 2,6-dimethylaniline moiety is described. The method is a modification of a method of Balasubramanian and Perez for analysis of metalaxyl invegetables. Noted modifications include replacement of steam extraction with extraction by methylene chloride and use of electron impact ionization GC/MS in the selected-ion mode. The method is linear over the range of 0.1-5 μg 2,6- dimethylaniline/g urine and has a detection limit of 0.025 μg/g.

Abstract The fluorescence intensity of the trihydroxylphenylfluorone-molybdenum(VI) Mo(VI) complex is quenched by protein. Based on this, a novel method for protein assay in aqueous solution was developed. With pH 3.75 acetic acidsodium acetate buffer solution, in the presence of p-octyl polyethylene glycol phenyl ether microemulsion, the quenched fluorescence intensity is proportional to the concentration of bovine serum albumin (BSA) in the range of 07.00 μg/mL, and the detection limit of BSA is 5.65 ng/mL. There is no interference from amino acids and most metal ions. The method developed in this paper has been used for the successful determination of protein in human serum.

Abstract A method is described for the determination of flurprimidol residues in soil and soil-grass samples. Flurprimidol is extracted from the sample by refluxing with methanol-water. An aliquot is partitioned into hexane and purified by alumina B Sep-Pak column chromatography. The compound is detected and measured by gas chromatography with electron capture detection. Residue identity is confirmed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry with detection at m/z 269.0. The detection limit is 0.01 ppm, and recoveries for control samples fortified with flurprimidol at 0.01-2.0 ppm averaged 80% for soil and 78% for soil-grass samples.

It is found that the fluorescence of curcumin is greatly enhanced by La3+ in the prescence of sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate (SDBS). Based on this, a sensitive fluorimetric method for the determination of curcumin in aqueous solution is proposed. In the HOAc-NaOAc buffer, the fluorescence intensity of curcumin is proportional to the concentration of curcumin in the range of 0.0074-7.4μg·mL-1 and the detection limit is 3.66ng·mL-1. The actual samples are satisfactorily determined.

The host–guest interactions between cucurbit[7]uril and a series of novel cationic bis(4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazol-2-yl)arene and 1-(4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazol-2-yl)- and 1,3-bis(4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazol-2-yl)-adamantane guests have been investigated in aqueous solution using UV–vis and NMR spectroscopy, and electrospray mass spectrometry. With the exception of the 1,3-bis(4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazol-2-yl)adamantane (which binds externally to the CB[7]), these guests form very stable inclusion complexes with slow exchange on the 1H NMR timescale. The direction and magnitude of the complexation-induced shifts (CIS) in the proton resonances of the guests are indicative of the residence of the hydrophobic core of the guest within the CB[7] cavity and the charged 4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazol-2-yl units outside the cavity adjacent to the carbonyl-lined portals of the host. The CIS values and the inclusion stability constants have been correlated with the nature of the guest core and with the distance between the charges on the terminal 4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazol-2-yl rings.Key words: cucurbit[7]uril, host–guest complex, dihydroimidazolyl, inclusion stability constants.
