Derivatives of bufogenin isolated from the skin of the Chinese toad, Bufo bufo gargarizans Cantor ("Ch'an Su"), and several semisynthetic derivatives of 20beta,21beta-epoxy-resibufogenin (13) have been evaluated for interleukin-6 (IL-6) antagonistic activity due to their growth-inhibitory activities on IL-6-dependent…
Six new triterpenoid saponins were isolated as methyl or butyl esters from an n-BuOH extract of the roots of Symplocos chinensis. Their structures were established as symplocososides A (1), B (2), C (3), D (4), E (5), and F (6), by extensive 1D and 2D NMR as well as HR-MS analysis and chemical methods. Compounds 1, 3,…
Abstract Three oxamido‐bridged tetranuclear complexes with the formulae [(LCu)Cu(LCuSCN) 2 ]·H 2 O ( 1 ), [(LCu)Mn(LCuSCN) 2 ]·1.38CH 3 OH ( 2 ) and {(LCu)Mn[LCuN(CN) 2 ] 2 }·0.75DMF·0.25H 2 O ( 3 ) (where H 2 L = 2,3‐dioxo‐5,6:15,16‐dibenzo‐1,4,8,13‐tetraazacylotetradeca‐7,13‐diene) have been prepared and characteris…
Here we show that electrochemical equilibrium voltage curves of amorphous WO3 and TiO2 coatings exhibit fine structure in striking agreement with the density of states in the conduction bands, as obtained by ab initio calculations for the crystalline counterparts. We suggest that localization of the band states is ess…
The present paper reports about the results of a study of mechanical, thermal, dynamic mechanical and electrical properties of polymeric insulators. Silicone rubber, ethylene-propylene-diene monomer (EPDM) and alloys of silicon-EPDM are known polymers for use as high voltage insulators. The result of dynamical mechani…
Born in 1985, the PEA technique consists in detecting acoustic waves generated by space charges when they are subjected to an impulse of electric field. Its principle is relatively simple to understand and its use is very flexible. Compared to other techniques as LIPP (Laser Induced Pressure Pulse) method and TSM (The…
Abstract Banana pseudostem fiber which is a lignocellulosic material, relatively inexpensive, and abundantly available was assessed in terms of its fiber‐matrix adhesion and dispersion in composites. Different types of adhesives were used. The mechanical and water absorption properties were investigated. Overall, for…
Abstract The recovery properties of dry and water saturated polyamide 6 (PA6) and its copolymer PA6/66 (ratio 4:1 by mol) were studied at elevated temperatures above the glass‐transition temperature in uniaxial tensile tests. The data yield critical points along the true stress–strain curves at which the differential…
Abstract We performed temperature‐dependent Raman scattering studies on K 0.2 Na 0.8 NbO 3 ceramics and compared the results with those for NaNbO 3 . The wavenumbers associated with NbO 6 vibrations suggest the existence of two phase transitions, as occurs with pure NaNbO 3 ceramics. Although the disorder on the Na/K…
Decarboxylation of orotidine 5'-monophosphate (Omp) to uridine 5'-monophosphate by orotidine 5'-monophosphate decarboxylase (ODCase) is currently the object of vivid debate. Here, we clarify its enzymatic activity with long time scale classical molecular dynamics and hybrid ab initio Car-Parrinello/molecular mechanics…
Elementary reaction steps and barriers for thiophene hydrodesulfurization (HDS) on a Ti 8 C 12 nanoparticle were investigated using density functional theory. It is found that despite its high carbon concentration Ti 8 C 12 displays a superior catalytic potential for hydrodesulfurization. Compared to the industrial ca…
Following the discovery of spinel structured silicon and germanium nitrides, we investigated the possibility of intermediate compositions or even solid solution in that new system. The multianvil syntheses were performed at 23 GPa and above 2000 °C. The synthesis products from a wide range of mixtures of low-pressure…
Self-healing is the spontaneous extinction of a local electrical arc due to the destruction of the electrodes during the process. It occurs in capacitors made of metallized films of plastics with a thin layer of metal. A theoretical model of the self-healing phenomenon has been elaborated from a previous investigation…
The high-pressure phase of magnetite, $h\text{\ensuremath{-}}{\mathrm{Fe}}_{3}{\mathrm{O}}_{4}$, has been studied by M\"ossbauer spectroscopy, and electrical conductivity to pressure of $140\phantom{\rule{0.3em}{0ex}}\mathrm{GPa}$ and in the $5--573\phantom{\rule{0.3em}{0ex}}\mathrm{K}$ temperature range. M\"ossbauer…
Stable (c) and metastable (h) forms of Mg 2 Sn were prepared as crystallized phases by ball-milling of elemental powders. Through in situ X-ray diffraction measurements, we deduced the reactivity mechanisms of c-Mg 2 Sn toward lithium. It entails first a monophasic insertion of about one lithium per formula unit into…
We describe a simplified method for the synthesis of gold nanorods on surfaces. Gold colloid seeds were deposited by electrostatic attraction onto silicon wafers and grown in a HAuCl 4 solution by surfactant-assisted, seed-mediated synthesis. Microscopic analysis of the nanoparticle ensemble allowed direct observation…
Benzene- d 6 confined in a mesoscopically organized, controlled, porous-glass mesocellular foam (MCF), with a pore diameter of 30 nm, is studied by low-temperature solid-state 2 H nuclear magnetic resonance ( 2 H NMR) spectroscopy in the temperature range of 90−180 K. The resulting spectra are compared to bulk benzene…
Nanostructured Fe-ZSM-5: Structures and reactivities of an Fe-exchanged ZSM-5 zeolite (see picture, the blue and red spheres represent Fe and O atoms, respectively) for decomposition of nitrous oxide and oxidation of methane to methanol were investigated using density functional theory calculations and a two-layered O…
The multiple daily administration of venlafaxine, a novel third-generation antidepressant, was reduced based on polyamidoamine and polyethylene glycol (PEG)-containing semi-interpenetrating network (IPN), respectively. Venlafaxine was covalently linked to water-soluble G2.5 anionic polyamidoamine dendrimer via a hydro…
Periodic mesoporous organosilicas (PMOs) were prepared by polymerizing phenylene-bridged silsesquioxane precursors containing an incremental increase in methylene spacers [1,4-(CH 2 ) n C 6 H 4 ( n = 0−2)] in combination with polyoxyethylene(10) cetyl ether (Brij 56) oligomers as structure-directing species under acid…
