    Notes: Summary A method is described for the isolation and purification of a sulphated glycopeptide from human supragingival calculus. The compound was isolated after using EDTA treatment, 2 M CaCl2 extraction, proteolytic digestion, ethanol precipitation, and finally purified by DEAE cellulose chromatography. It migrated as a single component on cellulose acetate electrophoresis, and chemical and infrared spectral analysis showed the presence of covalently attached sulphate groups. The sulphated glycopeptide was distinguished from being a sulphated glycosaminoglycan.

    Notes: Summary Cyanogen bromide (CNBr) peptides were prepared of the insoluble collagen of bovine dental cementum. Following chromatographic separation, the peptides were identified by their amino-acid composition. Type I collagen ([α1(I)]2α2) accounted for more than 90% of the organic matrix, while Type III collagen ([α1(III)]3) was present at a level of approximately 5%. Amino-acid analyses revealed that the CNBr peptides from α1(I) and α2 chains of cementum closely resembled the corresponding peptides from calf skin. The only systematic difference was a higher level of hydroxylation of prolyl and lysyl residues of the cementum peptides.

    Notes: Summary The calcium homeostatic mechanism was challenged in adult female rats by feeding them a calcium-deficient diet containing oxalate, and by subjecting them to pregnancy and lactation. The regimen caused a substantial weight loss, especially in those animals which reared their young well. Severe hypocalcaemia was observed in the lactating rats. Serum-P was slightly elevated. The content of hydroxyproline in serum was considerably elevated, reflecting the degree of calcium deprivation. Serum proteins were least influenced. The calcium depriving regimen reduced the growth of long bones, but did not stop it. The ash content of the bones was considerably reduced, the degree of reduction depended on the degree of calcium deprivation. Ash as percentage of total bone organ was reduced, but not to the same extent as total ash. Analyses of different parts of femur showed that the proximal and distal parts had lost more bone mineral than the diaphyseal shaft. The ash content of cortical bone tissue from the femur was estimated by a volumetric method. No differences were observed between test groups and controls, indicating that no measurable amounts of bone mineral had been removed from the walls of the vascular canals or by osteocytic osteolysis. Planimetric determinations on cross sections from femora disclosed that a great amount of bone had been removed from the endosteal surface of the diaphysis, while the periosteal surface demonstrated reduced bone apposition.

    Perceptions of chemistry: Why is the common perception of chemistry, the most visual of sciences, so distorted? (1996)

    Notes: Abstract Chemistry has evolved from a science dominated by mathematics into a science highly dependent on spatial-visual intelligence. Yet the chemical content of introductory courses remains taught essentially the same as 40–50 years ago. Chemistry, today, is recognized by chemists as the molecular science. Yet, school chemistry is alienated from that perception. Thanks to the computer, young people are more comfortable with visual imaging than their instructors were at the same age. Thus the time is rife to reinvigorate chemistry education by means of the visual-spatial approach, an approach wholly in conformance with the way modern chemistry is thought about and practiced.

    Description / Table of Contents: Neuartige Fluoropolyether-Polyol-Harze, die mit konventionellen Härtern wie Polyisocyanaten oder Melaminen aushärtbar sind, wurden hergestellt. Zunächst wurden oligomere NCO-terminierte Prepolymere durch Addition von Fluorpolyether-Makrodiolen unterschiedlicher Molekulargewichte an Isophorondiisocyanate erhalten. Durch die Reaktion dieser Prepolymeren mit Trimethylolpropan wurden endständige Hydroxygruppen eingeführt. Die Viskosität von Lösungen dieser Harze wurde bei unterschiedlichen Konzentrationen (Massenbruch 0,4-0,8) und Temperaturen (25°C-65°C) gemessen. Die erhaltenen Werte wurden auf der Basis der Erickson-Gleichung (Konzentrationsabhängigkeit von η) und unter Berücksichtigung des WLF-und des Arrhenius-Modells (Temperaturabhängigkeit von η) diskutiert. Das thermische Verhalten der Harze und von ausgehärteten Filmen wurde mit DSC bestimmt. Dabei wurden zwei Glasübergange beobachtet, die den separierten fluorhaltigen und nicht-fluorhaltigen Phasen zugeordnet werden können. Die Analyse des Zugverhaltens der Filme zeigte besonders bei den mit Isocyanat gehärteten Proben ein ausgeprägtes hart-plastisches Verhalten. Diese Werkstoffe erscheinen für die Anwendung als hoch-wertige, dauerfeste und klare Beschichtungen geeignet.
    Notes: New fluoropolyether polyolic resins are presented suitable to be cured with conventional hardeners as polyisocyanates or melamines. These resins are prepared by addition of fluoropolyether macrodiols (Fomblin® ZDOLTX) of various molecular weights to isophorone diisocyanate (IPDI) to give oligomeric NCO-terminated prepolymers. The final hydroxy functionality is obtained by the reaction of those prepolymers with trimethylolpropane (TMP). The viscosity of the resins is measured at various concentrations (weight fraction 0.8 - 0.4) and temperatures (T = 25-65°C). The results are discussed in terms of the Erickson equation (η vs. concentration) and using the WLF and Arrhenius models (η vs. T). The thermal behavior is studied by DSC for both the resins and cured films indicating the presence of two Tgs, corresponding to the segregated fluorinated and hydrogenated phases, the former particularly evident with the highest molecular weights of the fluorinated macromer. Tensile curves of selfsupported films are then analyzed showing an evident tough-plastic behavior especially for the isocyanate-cured films. The application of such materials as high-durability clear coats is finally proposed.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zur Verbesserung der Maßhaltigkeit und der Zähigkeit von gehärteten Melamin-Formaldehyd-Harz-Formmassen (MF) wurden teilverträgliche, methylolgruppenhaltige Epoxidharze (EP) auf Bisphenol A-Basis hergestellt und charakterisiert. Die Vernetzung solcher Epoxyresolharze durch 2-Ethyl-4-methylimidazol in Gegenwart von MF-Harz wurde untersucht. Spritzgepreßte Probekörper zeigen eine Zweiphasenstruktur; die EP-Phase kann als Wirt für carboxy-funktionalisierte, oligomere NBR-Kautschuke (CTBNX) dienen, die für sich allein in MF-Harzen nicht wirksam sind. Unter der Voraussetzung von kovalenten Bindungen in der Phasengrenzfläche kann durch den Zusatz von 0,5 bis 4 Gew.-% CTBNX zur MF-Formmasse bei EP-Anteilen bis 20 Gew.-% eine 50 bis 100proz. Steigerung von Bruchdehnung und Schlagzähigkeit erreicht werden, ohne daß Steifigkeit und Wärmeformbeständigkeit wesentlich abfallen. Bei moderaten EP/CTBNX-Gehalten wird zusätzlich die Nachschwindung von MF-Formteilen vermindert.
    Notes: In order to improve dimension stability and toughness of melamine formaldehyde moulding materials (MF), compatible bisphenol A epoxy resins (EP) with additional methylol groups were synthesized and characterized. Crosslinking of those epoxyresol resins with 2-ethyl-4-methylimidazole in the presence of MF resin was investigated. Transfer-moulded specimens revealed a two-phase morphology in which the EP phase is used as a host for modification with carboxylic functionalized oligomeric NBR rubber (CTBNX), which is not effective in MF moulding materials alone. The addition of 0.5 - 4 wt.-% CTBNX to the MF moulding materials at an epoxy content of maximum 20 wt.-% results in 50-100 % increase of elasticity and toughness without serious decrease in stiffness and heat deflection temperature, provided that covalent interfacial bonds exist. In addition, the post-shrinkage of MF parts decreases if a moderate EP/CTBNX content is introduced.

    Description / Table of Contents: Der gleichzeitige Einfluß des Verhältnisses von Fließhilfsmittel (Paraloid K 120N), Rußart und Schlagzähmodifikator (CPE 3615 und Kane Ace B56 A) auf die wichtigsten physiko-mechanischen Eigenschaften unplastifizierter PVC-Mischungen wurde studiert.Die erhaltenen Resultate wurden mathematisch verarbeitet und graphisch als Funktionsflächen dargestellt. Bemerkenswert ist, daß die Einführung von 2,5 und 5 Teilen Ruß eine Verbesserung der physico-mechanischen Eigenschaften ermöglicht. Dieses Resultat ist durch die Anwesenheit der Schlagzäh- und Fließmodifikatoren zu erklären.
    Notes: The concurrent influence of the processing aid (Paraloid K 120N) and the carbon black ratio, as well as the nature and the ratio of the impact modifier (CPE 3615 and Kane Ace B56 A) on the main physico-mechanical characteristics of the poly(vinyl chloride)-based unplasticized mixtures have been studied. The results obtained, processed mathematically and plotted graphically in the form of response surfaces, evidenced that the improvement of certain physico-mechanical properties becomes possible by the introduction of 2.5 parts and 5.0 parts carbon black into these compounds. This is due to the introduction of impact modifiers and processing aids into the mixtures.

Durch thermische Cyclisierung der Polyhydrazide wurden die entsprehchenden Poly(1,3,4-oxadiazol)e mit endständigen Phenoxygruppen erhalten. Die Polymeren wurden durch Viskosimetrie, Löslichkeitsuntersuchungen, IR-Spektroskopie, Differentialkalorimetrie und Thermogravimetrie charakterisiert.
    Notes: A series of new polyhydrazides containing pendent phenoxy groups has been synthesized by low-temperature solution polycondensation of equimolar amounts of diacid dichlorides and 2-phenoxyterephthalic dihydrazide in N-methyl-2-pyrrolidi-none (NMP). The thermal cyclization of the polyhydrazides gave the corresponding poly(1,3,4-oxadiazole)s containing pendent phenoxy groups. The polymers were characterized by viscometry, solubility measurements, IR spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetric analysis.

    Description / Table of Contents: Ein Ethylen-Vinylacetat-Copolymeres (EVA) mit 12% Vinylacetat-Gehalt wurde mit Trimethylolpropantrimethacrylat (TMPTMA) als Sensibilisator mit Elektronen bestrahlt. Die mechanischen und elektrischen Eigenschaften der bestrahlten Copolymerproben wurden untersucht. Die Resultate zeigen, daß sich Zugfestigkeit und Bruchdehnung zunächst mit zunehmender Strahlungsdosis verbessern und bei Überschreiten einer optimalen Strahlungsdosis und Sensibilisatorkonzentration wieder verschlechtern. Durch die Bestrahlung wird eine Vernetzung des Polymeren ausgelöst, die auf den sich mit der Strahlungsdosis erhöhenden Gelanteil zurückgeführt wird. Im Vergleich mit den Originalproben nehmen sowohl die Dielektrizitätskonstante als auch der dielektrische Verlustfaktor durch die Elektronenbestrahlung ab.
    Notes: Ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA) copolymer (12% vinyl acetate content) is subjected to electron beam irradiation using trimethylolpropane trimethacrylate (TMPTMA) as a radiation sensitizer. Mechanical and electrical studies of these irradiated samples show that the strength properties (tensile strength, elongation at break) are increased with radiation dosage up to an optimum radiation dose and sensitizer level above which the properties begin to deteriorate. Crosslinking of the polymer takes place on irradiation which is attributed to an increased gel content with increasing radiation dose. Compared to the original samples both dielectric constant and dielectric loss factor decrease for samples subjected to irradiation.

    Description / Table of Contents: Cellulose-p-toluolsulfonsäureester (Cellulosetosylate) lassen sich durch homogene Umsetzung von Cellulose in einer Lösung aus N,N-Dimethylacetamid und LiCl mit Tosylchlorid (Tos-Cl) und Triethylamin in 24 h bei 8°C in hoher Ausbeute und mit minimalem Einbau von Chlordesoxy-Gruppen herstellen. Die unterschiedlichen Celluloseausgangsmaterialien hatten durchschnittliche Polymerisationsgrade von 280 bis 5100. Die Produkte wurden mit Elementaranalyse, 13C-NMR- und FTIR-Spektroskopie und durch Bestimmung der Grenzviskositäten charakterisiert. Die Erhöhung des Molverhältnisses Tos-Cl/Anhydroglucose-Einheit (AGU) von 0.6 auf 9.0 führte zu einem Anstieg des Substitutionsgrades (DS) von 0.4 bis auf einen Maximalwert von 2.3. Die Cellulosetosylate sind in herkömmlichen organischen Lösungsmitteln wie Dimethylsulfoxid (im gesamten DS Bereich) und in N,N-Dimethylacetamid, N,N-Dimethylformamid, Aceton, Tetrahydrofuran und Trichlormethan (in Abhängigkeit von DS) löslich. Durch 13C-NMR-Spektroskopie wurde nachgewiesen, daß die Tosylierung am O-6 Atom der AGU schneller als an den O-2/3 Atomen erfolgt. Die Analyse der korrespondierenden Ioddesoxycellulosen, die durch Umsetzung mit NaI in Acetylaceton synthetisiert wurden, bestätigte dies zusätzlich. Darüber hinaus wurden wichtige Eigenschaften der Cellulosetosylate wie die Stabilität gegenüber Alkali und thermischer Beanspruchung untersucht.
    Notes: Pure cellulose p-toluenesulfonates (tosylates) with an insignificant formation of chlorodeoxy groups were prepared by reacting cellulose dissolved in a solution of N,N-dimethylacetamide and LiCI with tosylchloride (Tos-CI) in the presence of triethylamine within 24 h at 8°C. Various cellulosic starting materials with a degree of polymerization from 280 to 5 100 were used. The samples obtained were characterized by means of elemental analysis, FTIR and 13C NMR spectroscopy, and their intrinsic viscosities. The rise of the molar ratio of Tos-CI/anhydroglucose unit (AGU) from 0.6 to 9.0 leads to an increase in the degree of substitution (DS) from 0.4 up to a maximum value of 2.3. The cellulose tosylates are readily soluble in common organic solvents like dimethyl sulfoxide (within the whole DS range) and in N,N-dimethylacetamide, N,N-dimethylformamide, acetone, tetrahydrofuran and trichloromethane depending on DS. As revealed by 13C NMR spectroscopy a faster tosylation takes place at the O-6 atom of AGU compared with the O-2/3 atoms. This was additionally confirmed by analysis of the corresponding iododeoxy celluloses synthesized with NaI in acetylacetone. Furthermore, some important properties as stability against alkaline and heat were studied as well.

    Description / Table of Contents: Die Herstellung einer SiC-Oberfläche auf Kohlefasern unter Verwendung einer Sol-Gel-Mischung von Tetraethylorthosilikat (TEOS) und Phenolharz wurde untersucht. FTIR- und SEM-Untersuchungen zeigten, daß die SiC-Oberfläche durch carbothermische Reduktion der Sol-Gel-Mischung bei 1 420°C innerhalb von 15-20 min in einer Argon-Atmosphäre gebildet werden kann. Mittels TGA konnte gezeigt werden, daß die SiC-Beschichtung die thermo-oxidative Stabilität der Kohlefasern erhöht. Bei der erreichten SiC-Schichtdicke von 0,47 μm, bei einem C/Si-Verhältnis von 4, zeigt sich keine Beeinflussung der mechanischen Stabilität der Kohlefasern.
    Notes: The preparation of a SiC coating on a carbon fiber surface using a sol-gel mixture of tetraethyl orthosilicat (TEOS) and phenolic resin was studied. FTIR and SEM investigations indicated that the SiC coating can be formed by carbothermal reduction of the sol-gel mixture at 1420°C for 15-20 min in an argon atmosphere. TGA of the coated fiber was also performed, showing that the SiC coating improves the thermooxidative stability of the carbon fiber. With the thickness of the obtained coating of 0.47 μm using a C/Si ratio of 4, this treatment does not affect the carbon fiber strength.

    Description / Table of Contents: Diese Mitteilung behandelt den Einfluß von oligomeren Polypropylen- und Polybutylenölen mit unterschiedlichem Molekulargewicht auf die adhäsiven Eigenschaften von ataktischem Polypropylen (aPP) und dessen Mischungen mit einem Styrol-Ethylhexylacrylat-Copolymeren. Die mechanische Adhäsionsarbeit Am von Mischungen, die ataktisches Polypropylen und das Oligomere enthalten, steigt mit dem Molekulargewicht des Oligomeren, was im Fall des Propylenöls signifikanter ist. Im Fall der ternären Mischungen des ataktischen Polypropylens mit dem Styrol-Ethylhexylacrylat-Copolymeren und Oligomeren wird ein Adhäsions-Maximum beobachtet, wenn der Gehalt an Styrol-Ethylhexylacrylat-Copolymeren in der Mischung ungefähr 30 Gew.-% erreicht. Wenn kein Oligomeres in der Mischung vorhanden ist, kann man bei dieser Zusammensetzung ein Adhäsions-Minimum beobachten, was auf die Unverträglichkeit der übrigen Komponenten zurückzuführen ist.
    Notes: This paper deals with the influence of oligomers, namely propylene oil and butylene oil, of different molecular weight on the adhesive properties of atactic polypropylene (aPP) and its mixtures with styrene-2-ethylhexyl acrylate (S-EHA) copolymer. The mechanical work of adhesion Am of the mixture containing atactic polypropylene and oligomer increases with the molecular weight of the oligomer, which was more significant in the case of propylene oil. For ternary mixtures aPP-S-EHA copolymer/oligomer a maximum of adhesion can be observed if the content of the S-EHA copolymer in the mixture reaches about 30 mass-%. In the absence of oligomers in the mixture a minimum of adhesion can be observed for this composition, which can be attributed to the incompatibility of the remaining components.

    Description / Table of Contents: After comparison of three catalyst systems, i.e. [Nd(Oct)3/Al2Cl3ET3/Al(i-But)3, Ni(Oct)2/BF3OEt2/AlEt3 and Al(i-But)3/I2/TiCl4] the titanium catalyst system was used for the copolymerization of 1,3-butadiene with propylene oxide. The effects of monomer ratio on copolymer composition, conversion, microstructure, molar mass and molar mass distribution as well as of time of polymerization and of the aluminium/titanium ratio were evaluted. The copolymerization parameters were determined according to Kelen-Tüdős as rbutadiene = 0,9 and rpropylene oxide = 3,9. Copolymerization was confirmed by 13C NMR spectroscopy and extract evaluation combined with 1H NMR spectroscopy.
    Notes: Für die Copolymerisation von 1,3-Butadien mit Propylenoxid wurde nach dem Vergleich der drei Katalysatorsysteme Nd(Oct)3/Al2Cl3ET3/Al(i-But)3, Ni(Oct)2/ BF3OEt2/AlEt3 und Al(i-But)3/I2/TiCl4 das Titankatalysatorsystem eingesetzt. Neben dem Einfluß der Monomerzusammensetzung auf den Umsatz, die Microstruktur, die Copolymerzusammensetzung, die Molmassen sowie die Molmassenverteilungen wurden auch die Polymerisationszeit und das Aluminium/Titan-Verhältnis untersucht. Die Copolymerisationsparameter wurden nach Kelen-Tüdős zu rButadien = 0,9 und rPropylenoxid = 3,9 bestimmt. Der Copolymernachweis erfolgte über 13C-NMR-Spektroskopie und Extraktionsuntersuchungen in Verbindung mit 1H-NMR-Spektroskopie.

    Description / Table of Contents: Phosphorhaltige Polyurethane (PU-P) auf der Basis von Bisphenol A wurden durch N-Alkylierung hergestellt und mittels IR- und 1H NMR-Spektroskopie charakterisiert. Physikalische und thermische Eigenschaften dieser Polyurethane wurden mittels Differentialkalorimetrie, Thermogravimetrie, Röntgenbeugung und Untersuchungen der Löslichkeit, der Feuerbeständigkeit (Sauerstoffindex, LOI) und der reduzierten Viskosität bestimmt. Die Glastemperaturen der N-alkylierten Polymeren sanken von 120°C für das Ausgangspolymere bis auf 29°C für das N-alkylierte Polyurethan mit 2 Gew.-% Phosphor. Die Viskosität der N-alkylierten Polyurethane nahm von 0,36 dL g-1 auf 0,24 dL g-1 ab. Die phosphorhaltigen Polyurethane besitzen eine geringere thermische Stabilität und bessere Löslichkeit sowie höhere Feuerbeständlgkeit als das Ausgangspolymere. Die Röntgenstreuexperimente ergaben, daß ein erhöhter Phosphorgehalt der Polyurethane die Kristallinität herabsetzt.
    Notes: Phosporus-containing polyurethanes (PU-P) based on bisphenol A were prepared by N-alkylation. The structures of N-alkylated polyurethanes were characterized by IR and 1H NMR spectra. Physical and thermal properties of the phosphorus-containing polyurethanes were investigated with differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), X-ray diffraction, tests of solubility, limiting oxygen index (LOI) and reduced viscosity. Tg of the N-alkylated polymers decreased from 120°C for the starting polymer to 29°C of the 2.0 wt.-% phosphorus-containing polyurethanes. The viscosity of N-alkylated polyurethanes also decreased from 0.36 dL g-1 to 0.24 dL g-1. The thermal stability of polyurethanes decreased on the introduction of phosphorus groups. The LOI values of polyurethanes showed that fire resistance of phosphorus-containing polyurethanes was enhanced. X-ray diffraction measurements showed that the increased phosphorus content was accompanied by decreased crystallinity of the polyurethanes. The solubility of PU-P was improved.

    Notes: This question was addressed using various methods to monitor the process of curing and state of the final network. Attention was particularly focused on the possible inhomogeneous network formation as a consequence of the crosslinking process. An analysis of experimental data has revealed that some cured resins can be considered as homogeneous as the corresponding uncrosslinked materials. Resins cured by simple stepwise alternating chemistries, with good compatibility of components, usually fulfill the criterion of homogeneity. A family of epoxy resins cured with polyamines belongs to this category. Nodular structures seen by electron microscopy are a result of interaction of the electron beam or etching. Such structures are also observed for uncrosslinked polymers investigated under the same conditions. Formation of inhomogeneities in a number of thermoset systems is due to (a) chainwise mechanism of network formation with fast propagation inducing cyclization and steric volume exclusion and (b) poor compatibility of components of the system made stronger by increasing molecular weights and crosslinking during curing. Networks formed by freeradical polymerization and copolymerization of polyvinyl monomers can serve as an example of crosslinking-driven formation of inhomogeneities.

    Notes: The base and transition metal catalyzed isomerization of allyl and crotyl ethers affords a facile, high yield route to the preparation of a variety of mono-, di-, and multifunctional 1-propenyl and 1-butenyl ethers. Employing this novel method, monomers containing epoxide, ester, ether carbonate and urethane groups can be prepared from their readily available allyl and crotyl precursors. In general, these monomers display very high reactivity in cationic polymerizations. In our work, we have focused on photoinduced cationic polymerizations of these monomers using diaryliodonium and triarylsulfonium salt photoinitiators. To study these very fast photopolymerizations, extensive use of real-time infrared spectroscopy was made. Employing this technique, the effects of monomer and photoinitiator structure on the rates of polymerization were studied.

    Notes: Rubber elasticity is associated with changes in configurational entropy of a long chain. Because the chain cannot change its configuration instantaneously, there is a time delay in deformation to an applied force. This delayed response is the source of viscoelasticity and hysteresis energy loss of elastomer networks. Many tire performance properties are related to the viscoelasticity of tire components. Wet and dry traction of tire is related to the energy loss of the tread material at very high frequencies. On the other hand, rolling resistance of tire is characterized by the energy loss of tread material at relatively low frequencies. The dynamic viscoelastic properties of elastomer network shows characteristic zones on a frequency scale. At very high frequencies the energy loss is controlled by the segmental motions of the polymer chain. At lower frequencies the energy loss is related to the longer range motions of the chain. A series of polymers was synthesized to study the effect of micro- and macro-structure of the polymer on the viscoelastic properties of tread compounds and their tire performance properties. As expected from the theory, the wet traction of the tire was highly correlated to the segmental motions of the chains; namely, the glass transition temperature of the polymer. The energy loss of the compounds at a higher temperature, however, was related to the macrostructure of the polymer chain. Those examples illustrate that the fundamental understanding of the theory of elastomer network allows a tire engineer to obtain the best balance of tire performance characteristics.

    Notes: Cationic, anionic, and radical ring-opening polymerization of spiro and bicyclic monomers, and their application to network polymers have been developed. Bicyclo orthoesters (BOEs), spiro orthoesters (SOEs), and spiro orthocarbonates (SOCs) were polymerized by cationic double ring-opening. Bicyclobis(γ-butyrolactone)s and spirobis(γ-butyrolactone)s were copolymerized with epoxides by anionic alternating ring-opening. Polymers from SOCs bearing exomethylene groups consisted of ring-opened and vinyl polymerized units. The degree of ring-opening of SOCs depended upon the number of rings and steric hindrance. The radical polymerization of vinylcyclopropanone cyclic acetals depended on the ring-size. With the monomers bearing 5- and 6-membered acetal rings, single ring-opened polymers were obtained. With the monomer bearing 7-membered acetal ring, the polymer mainly consisted of double ring-opened unit. These monomers could be crosslinked by bifunctionalization. Poly(cyclic orthoester)s linked by covalent bonds with dithiols to bifunctional SOEs were crosslinked by acid catalysts, and the reversible crosslinking-depolymerization system could be controlled by temperature.

    Notes: Polyester urethane network elastomers with incorporated hard segment oligomers have been prepared by poly(ethylene adipate)glycol (PEA), 2,4-tolylene diisocyanate (TDI), and 1,4-butanediol (BD). These hard segment oligomers were hydroxy-terminated oligomers ([BD-TDI]n-BD; n=1,3), obtained by reacting BD with TDI. Concentrations of allophanate as a cross-linking site were determined by the amine degradation method. Hard segment moieties were obtained by a novel selective hydrolysis of soft segments in the elastomers. Molecular weight distributions of hard segment were measured by means of GPC. Mechanical and thermal properties were measured. Dependence of rubber elasticity on physical cross-linking between normal elastomers and the elastomers with incorporated hard segment oligomers were discussed.

    Notes: Poly (vinyl alcohol) with pendent styrylpyridinium groups (SbQ) is insolubilized by photoirradiation. An association takes place in SbQ groups. The association of polymer chains becomes marked with increasing the number of SbQ groups. Mainly intermolecular crosslinks were formed. Transparent and homogeneous macrogels consisting of several intermolecular crosslinks are obtained.The proportion of the free water to the bound water in PVA-SbQ gels was 3.3-2.9 despite of the large change in conversion of photodimerization of SbQ groups, x=0.27-0.58. The water uptake after swelling of the gels in water increased 6-27 times compared to the original weight at pH=7. The higher the degree of photocrosslinking, the lower was the degree of swelling. The water diffusion coefficients, D, were (2.2-5.8) × 10-5 cm2 S-1 for a 88% saponified PVA with 1 . 3 mol% SbQ groups. The volume of the gel increased discontinuously about 10-fold for the 99% saponified PVA with 0 . 096 mol% SbQ and 51% water (49% acetone). The acetone concentration at the transition decreased with increasing the degree of saponification of the PVA.

    Description / Table of Contents: Durch anionische Copolymerisation von Allylmethacrylat und Methylmethacrylat wurden Makromonomere unterschiedlicher Kettenlänge mit durchschnittlich drei Allyl-Doppelbindungen pro Kette hergestellt́ und mit NMR-Spektroskopie und Gelpermeationschromatographie charakterisiert. Durch Copolymerisation der Makromonomeren mit 1-Vinyl-2-pyrrolidon wurden dreidimensionale Strukturen erhalten. Die optischen und mechanischen Eigenschaften der Produkte wurden untersucht, und die Quellungseigenschaften und Vernetzungsgrade wurden bestimmt. Die Copolymereigenschaften wurden durch Makromonomere mit Kettenlängen bis 40 Einheiten nur wenig beeinflußt. Bei Kettenlängen über 50 Einheiten wurde eine leichte Abnahme der Wasseraufnahmefähigkeit und eine deutliche Erhähung des Elastizitätsmoduls beobachtet. Die Vernetzungsgrade hängen von der Makromonomer-Kettenlange ab; eine merkliche Erhöhung aufgrund der groößeren Zahl an Methyl-Methyl-Wechselwirkungen wurde bei Kettenlangen über 50 Einheiten festgestellt. Die Copolymeren zeigen günstige Festigkeits-Dehnungs-Eigenschaften und einen geringen Gehalt an wasserlöslichen Extrakten, in denen durch IR-Spektroskopie 1-Vinyl-2-pyrrolidon-Homopolymere identifiziert wurden. Obwohl mit allen untersuchten Makromonomeren gute Resultate erzielt wurden, scheint für die Copolymerisation mit 1-Vinyl-2-pyrrolidon das Makromonomere mit 50 Einheiten am besten geeignet.
    Notes: Macromonomers of various chain lengths with an average of three allyl double bonds per chain were prepared by anionic copolymerization of allyl methacrylate with methyl methacrylate. The macromonomers were characterized by gel permeation chromatography and nuclear magnetic resonance. The macromonomers were then copolymerized with 1-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone to form three-dimensional structures. Their optical, swelling and mechanical properties were studied and the crosslinking efficiency was determined. The copolymer properties are not greatly affected by macromonomer chain lengths up to 40-mers; above 50-mers there is a slight decrease in the equilibrium water content and a significant increase in the modulus of elasticity. The crosslinking efficiency depends on the macromonomer chain length; a marked increase was observed for the 50-mer because of a greater number of methyl-methyl interactions. Copolymers have favourable strength-strain properties and a low content of water-soluble extracts, in which the IR analysis demonstrated the presence of 1-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone homopolymers. In spite of the good results obtained for all the macromonomers described in this work, the 50-mer seems to be optimal for copolymerization with 1-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone.

The chemical reactions were investigated by means of titration and different spectroscopic and chromatographic methods. It was examined whether the less complicated and therefore cheaper in situ reaction delivers postcured products with equal or better properties. Furthermore, it was investigated whether the results are similar using technical phenolic hardeners.

Im Rahmen dieser Arbeit werden die physikochemischen Eigenschaften des resultierenden Copolymeren untersucht. Von Bedeutung sind hierbei insbesondere Merkmale wie Molekulargewichtsverteilung, Klebekraft, Stabilität, Löslichkeit sowie rheologische Eigenschaften. Derartige Kenntnisse über die physikochemische Beschaffenheit der PVA-Ausgangsverbindung sowie des makromolekularen Endproduktes sind eine wesentliche Voraussetzung für die Entwicklung von neuen Produkten, die als wasserlösliche, recycelbare Schlichtemittel zur Anwendung in der Textilindustrie kommen können.
    Notes: A macromolecular sizing agent based on the copolymerization of poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) with hydrolysed starch was prepared using the chemically reactive bifunctional compound N-methylolacrylamide. Detailed characteristics of the resultant PVA/N-methylolcarbamoylethylated starch copolymer were studied where emphasis has been placed on solubility, rheological properties, molecular weight distribution, adhesive power and stability. Elucidation of the nature of the macromolecular segments of both N-methylolcarbamoylethylated PVA as well as PVA/N-methylolcarbamoylethylated starch copolymer fulfilled the prerequisite to tailor PVA/starch copolymer which is appropriate for application as a water-soluble recyclable sizing agent by ultrafiltration.

    Notes: Seismic isolation was reconfirmed to be extremely efficient for the protection of buildings, and hence human life, on the occasion of the Great Hanshin Earthquake. Rubber bearings are placed under the buildings for isolation, and thus the type of rubber bearings is a dominant factor for efficient isolation. In this report, the performance of peripherally restraining type rubber bearing (PRB) was examined where its contracted model was found to simulate the performance of full scale PRB precisely. Damping ratio and vertical spring constant of PRB are as good as the existing ones. PRB showed lower critical shear strain, but it was concluded that no problems were found for the actual use of PRB.

    Notes: The network formation of phenol-formaldehyde resin was investigated by the Monte Carlo (MC) simulation technique. The observed value of the gel point, pc, was exactly determined as a critical extent of reaction, where the Mw/Mn in soluble parts is maximum. The MC simulation with the cubic percolation theory was applied to the gelation of phenolic resins and gave an exact gel point, which was in excellent agreement with the observed value of pc. The simulation showed that the intramolecular reaction occurred frequently with increasing the gel fraction beyond the gel point. The structural analysis of the maximum cluster with the computer strongly supported the contribution of the intramolecular reaction to the network formation of the gel.

    Notes: The structure of the hydrogel of poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) and poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) was investigated by small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) of synchrotron radiation. A physically crosslinked blend gel, which was prepared by repetitive freezing and thawing of an aqueous solution of PVA and PAA, could be chemically crosslinked by esterfication of PVA with PAA even in the hydrogel state. The chemical crosslinking induced the destruction of physical crosslinks into a folded structure, indicating that the chemical crosslinking proceeds at the sites around the physical crosslinks that contain PVA and PAA in much higher concentration than other portion of the gel. The pH-induced structure changes of the PVA hydrogels, chemically crosslinked with poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) were investigated by SAXS on the samples of various chemical crosslinking time. The gels were shrunk at pH4, and swollen at pH8. The results of SAXS showed, that the Porod slope changed with chemical crosslinking time from -3.5 to -2.9 at pH4, and from -2.9 to -2.4 at pH8. The results suggest that a folded structure as a structural domain, which is characterized by fractally rough interface, tends to change into the structure that corresponds to percolation cluster, particularly at pH8. The gels immersed in pH8 showed a remarkable structure change accompanying swelling. The results revealed that a conformational change of PAA chains, induced by the pH change, can be explained by the presence of a structural domain in the gel network, where both PVA chains and PAA chains get entangled and partially form a interpenetrating polymer network(IPN).

    Notes: Polyurethane elastomers were investigated as electrically active materials for actuators. Components in hard segment and soft segment in the elastomers were varied. The elastomers with excellent electrostrictive properties were limited to those which had soft segments of polyesters and polylactones. It turned out, that the elastomers, whose soft segments are polyethers are electrically inert under the experimental conditions. The chemical structure of the hard segment seems not to influence to the electrostrictive property. The charging and discharging process was investigated. The charging process was found to proceed simultaneously with the contracting process caused by the electric field, suggesting that the orientation of the soft segment in the elastomer plays critical rolls in the electrostrictive action. In the elastomer, which has a soft polyether segment and was inactive to the electric field, could be actuated very efficiently when the elastomer was swollen with dimethyl sulfoxide. We conclude that the polyurethane elastomer, whose soft segment has chemical bonds with a relatively large dipole moment, can be actuated by the electric field application, and that even the elastomer, whose soft segment is inactive, could be actuated in the presence of a solvent with a large dipole moment. Thus, the concept found with the gel, could be applied to an elastomer, the soft segment of which plays partly the roll of the solvent in the gel.

    Notes: Chitosan and 6-O-glycolchitosan, a water-soluble chitosan derivative, were oxidized by periodate. In the case of chitosan, only degradation products were obtained. With 6-O-glycolchitosan, however, water-soluble amphoteric polyelectrolyte derivatives of chitosan having higher molecular weight were obtained. The oxidized 6-O-glycolchitosan (OX-GC) showed a pH sensitive change of viscosity in aqueous solution. Moreover, the OX-GC hydrogel, cross-linked with glutaraldehyde, showed a pH sensitive swelling behavior. The OX-GC showed biodegradation behavior by lysozyme after acetylation.

    Description / Table of Contents: Das Fließ- und Bruchverhalten eines durch das gleichzeitige Härten eines ungesättigten Polyesters (UP) und eines wärmehärtbaren Bismaleimidharzes (BMI) erhaltenen quervernetzten Polymernetzwerkes wurde über einen weiten Temperatur- und Beanspruchungsbereich untersucht. Die Fließspannung σy und der Youngsche Elastizitätsmodul E steigen bei Zunahme der Spannungsbeanspruchung bzw. bei Absinken der Temperatur. Zudem steigen bei ansonsten gleichen Testbedingungen σy und E mit zunehmendem BMI-Gehalt im Blend. Andererseits wurde eine Beeinflussung des Bruch-Parameters Kc durch die Gegenwart des BMI nicht beobachtet. Der Fließprozess wurde sowohl mit Hilfe der Theorie von Argon als auch mit der von Bowden untersucht; die daraus abgeleiteten Molekül-Parameter wurden mit der bei der Härtung gebildeten Molekularstruktur in Beziehung gesetzt.
    Notes: The yielding and the fracture behaviour of an intercrosslinked polymer network obtained by the simultaneous curing of an unsaturated polyester (UP) and a thermosetting bismaleimide resin (BMI) was investigated in a wide range of temperatures and testing rates. The yield stress σy and the Young's modulus E increase by increasing the testing rate and decreasing temperature. Moreover, under the same testing conditions, σy and E increased as the BMI content in the blend was enhanced. On the other hand, it was found that the fracture parameter Kc was not affected by the presence of BMI. The yielding process was analyzed using the theories both of Argon and Bowden and the molecular parameters derived there were related to the molecular structure of the network developed upon curing.

    Notes: A series of new fluorinated poly(1,3,4-oxadiazole-imide-amide)s containing various ratios of amide/oxadiazole groups in the repeating unit have been prepared by cyclodehydration of the corresponding poly(hydrazide-imide-amide)s resulting from the reaction of diacid dichlorides incorporating both hexafluoroisopropylidene bridges and imide rings with p-aminobenzhydrazide or with mixtures of certain aromatic diamines and p-aminobenzhydrazide or terephthalic dihydrazide. The new polymers are soluble in polar amidic solvents and can be processed into flexible films by casting from solution. Their glass transition temperatures are in the range 254-325°C and they are thermally stable up to 415-450°C.

    Description / Table of Contents: Blockcopoly(ester-ether) mit verschiedenen ionischen Einheiten wie Sulfobetain (S-Betain), Carbobetain (C-Betain) und Ammoniumtosylat wurden hergestellt und hinsichtlich ihrer Eignung als antistatische Modifikatoren für Polyethylenterephthalat (PET)-Fasern untersucht. Die ionischen Segmente wurden aus N,N-Bis(2-hydroxyethyl)methylamin generiert und statistisch mit den Polyester- und Polyoxyethylen(PEO)-Einheiten cokondensiert. Aus den Copolymeren mit S-Betain-Einheiten wurden im Schmelzspinnverfahren dicke Filamente hergestellt und deren elektrischer Widerstand bestimmt. Abhängig von der Zusammensetzung (25-75 Gew.-% PEO, 1-2 mol-% S-Betain) wurden Widerstände zwischen 108 und 1010 Ω cm-1 gemessen. Die drei copolymerartigen Modifikatoren wurden mit PET durch Blendspinnen gemischt. Die so erhaltenen PET-Fasem zeigen nicht nur gute mechanische sondern auch verbesserte antistatische Eigenschaften. Die Fasern aus dem S-Betain enthaltenden Copolymeren weisen dabei die kürzeste Halbwertszeit des Abbaus der elektrostatischen Ladung auf, obwohl der Oberflächenwiderstand dieses Materials in der Größenordnung 1013 Ω cm-2 dem Wert der mit C-Betain und Ammoniumtosylat hergestellten Fasem ähnlich ist. Die PET-Fasern bewahren ihre guten antistatischen Eigenschften auch nach dem Fäben und wiederholtem Waschen, da sowohl die hydrophilen als auch die ionischen Gruppen an den Polyesterketten fixiert sind.
    Notes: Block copoly(ester-ether)s containing different ionic units, i.e., sulfobetaine (S-betaine), carbobetaine (C-betaine), and ammonium tosylate, were prepared and evaluated as antistatic modifiers of PET fiber. The ionic units were readily derived from N,N-bis(2-hydroxyethyl)methylamine and co-condensed randomly with the polyester and poly(oxyethylene) (PEO) units. For the copolymers containing S-betaine units, a thick filament was melt-spun to evaluate their apparent electric resistivity. Depending on the unit compositions (25-75 wt.-% of PEO and 1-2 mol-% of S-betaine), resistivities ranging from 108 to 1010 Ω cm-1 were obtained. Then, the three copolymer-type modifiers were blended with poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) by the ordinary blend-spinning technique. The blend PET fibers obtained showed not only good mechanical properties, but also improved antistatic properties. Particularly, the fiber blended with the copolymer containing S-betaine units had the shortest half-life time of leakage of static charge, although the surface area resistivity, being in the order of 1013 Ω cm-2, was similar to that of the fibers blended with the copolymers containing C-betaine and ammonium tosylate units. These blend PET fibers were found to retain good antistatic properties even after dyeing and repeated washings, because both the hydrophilic and ionic groups are immobilized with the polyester chains.

    Description / Table of Contents: For radical copolymerizations of α-methylstyrene (MS) with methacrylonitrile (MAN) and of MS with acrylonitrile (AN) studies were carried out to examine postulations of kinetic models known from literature, in particular the terminal model with chain-length-independent and chain-length-dependent depolymerization steps. The results of investigations were based on measurements of the sequence length distributions from 13C-NMR spectra. Analyses of MS/MAN copolymers with various compositions were carried out. Reaction parameters and depolymerization constants depending on temperature were calculated. The values of enthalpy and entropy of polymerization and the ceiling temperature were computed for MS to ΔH = 26,5 ± 0,5 kJ mol-1, ΔS = 95 ± 5 J mol-1 K-1, Tceiling = 65 ± 1°C. The terminal model with depolymerization steps turned out to be wrong for the accurate description of the polymerization behaviour in case of the tested systems. Results clearly show important penultimate effects. At the point of knowledge, the description of the polymerization behaviour in terms of a penultimate model with depolymerization steps are suggested.
    Notes: Für die radikalischen Copolymerisationen von α-Methylstyrol (MS) mit Methacrylnitril (MAN) sowie MS mit Acrylnitril (AN) wurden Untersuchungen zur Prüfung der in der Literatur postulierten kinetischen Modelle des „sequenzlängenunabhängigen“ bzw. „sequenzlängenabhängigen“ Terminalmodells mit Depolymerisationsschritten durchgeführt. Sie basieren auf Analysen der Sequenzverteilungen aus 13C-NMR-Spektren. Resultate von 13C-NMR-Untersuchungen an MS/MAN-Polymeren variabler Zusammensetzung werden vorgestellt. Reaktionsparameter und Gleichgewichtskonstanten wurden direkt aus den Informationen der 13C-NMR-Spektren für das Terminalmodell mit Depolymerisationsschritten in Abhängigkeit von der Reaktionstemperatur der Polymeren bestimmt. Hieraus konnten die Polymerisationsenthalpie ΔH = 26,5 ± 0,5 kJ mol-1, die Polymerisationsentropie ΔS = 95 ± 5 J mol-1 K-1 sowie die Ceilingtemperatur Tceiling = 65 ± 1°C für MS bestimmt werden. Es wurde nachgewiesen, daß im Rahmen der Terminalnäherung auch mit Berücksichtigung von Depolymerisationseinflüssen keine adäquate Beschreibung des Copolymerisationsverhaltens im Falle der untersuchten Systeme möglich ist. Vielmehr konnten als Ergebnis der Untersuchungen sowohl in Copolymeren von MS mit AN als auch mit MAN signifikante Penultimate-Effekte nachgewiesen werden. Aufbauend auf diesen Ergebnissen wird die Anwendung eines auf einer Penultimate-Näherung basierenden Modells, welches auch das Gleichgewicht in den Wachstumsreaktionen von MS berücksichtigt, zur theoretischen Vorhersage des Copolymerisationsverhaltens vorgeschlagen.

    Description / Table of Contents: Ein auf Magnesiumoxid aufgebrachter Polytitazan-Cobalt (III)-Komplex diente als effektiver Katalysator für die Epoxidierung von cis-Cycloocten mit molekularem Sauerstoff bei Normaldruck in Gegenwart von Isobutyraldehyd als Reduktionsmittel. Nach XPS-Untersuchungen wird Cobalt (III) durch den mehrzähnigen Stickstoffliganden des Polytitazans stabilisiert. Bei 25°C beträgt der cis-Cycloocten-Umsatz nach fünf Stunden 95,2%, mit einer Selektivität von 100% für das cis-Cyclohexylenoxid. Der Katalysator Kann mindestens neun Mal ohne Aktivitätsverlust verwendet werden.
    Notes: Magnesium oxide supported polytitazane cobalt (III) complex is demonstrated as an effective catalyst for the epoxidation of cis-cyclooctene with molecular oxygen at atmospheric pressure in the presence of isobutyraldehyde as the sacrificial reductant. XPS data show that the high-valent cobalt (III) is stabilized by the multidentate nitrogen ligand of polytitazane. The conversion of cis-cyclooctene is as high as 95.2% with 100% selectivity to the cis-cyclooctene oxide at 25°C within 5 h. The catalyst can be used at least nine times without loss of its activity.

    Description / Table of Contents: Es wird über die Gleichgewichts-Schmelzpunktsdepression von Polycarbonat aus Bisphenol A (PC) in Mischungen mit Poly-∊-caprolacton (PCL) berichtet. Hierzu wird ein Modell entwickelt, das den gekrümmten Verlauf der gemessenen Hoffman-Weeks-Plots zu erklären vermag. Es berücksichtigt die Konzentrationsinhomogenitäten, die mit fortschreitender Kristallisation an der Kristallwachstumsfront entstehen. Die gelegentlich beobachtete Schmelzpunktsdepression der PCL-Komponente wird diskutiert. Der Flory-Hugginssche Wechselwirkungsparameter wird zu -0,09 berechnet; aus diesem kleinen Wert muß geschlossen werden, daß die Mischungspartner enthalpisch nur schwach wechselwirken. Der merkliche Abfall der Glastemperatur des PC nach Einmischen von PCL bewirkt eine beträchtliche Kristallisation aus der Schmelze; es können PC-Kristallinitätsgrade bis zu 25% erreicht werden.
    Notes: It is reported on the equilibrium melting point depression of polycarbonate from bisphenol A (PC) in its blend with poly-∊-caprolactone (PCL). To this end, a model which explains the bended course of the measured Hoffman-Weeks plots is developed which takes into account the composition changes at the crystal growth front upon progressive crystallization. The occasional melting point depression of the PCL component is discussed. The calculated Flory-Huggins parameter of χ12 ≍ -0.09 indicates only weak enthalpic interactions. The remarkable drop in the glass transition temperature of PC with blending allows PC degrees of crystallinity up to 25% upon crystallization from the melt.

The powdery hydrogels were obtained by precipitation polymerization in acetone and diethyl ether, using N,N′-methylenebisacrylamide and ethylene dimethacrylate as crosslinking agents. Dependences of water-swellability, particle size, aggregation, specific surface and content of the uncrosslinked water-soluble polymers and low-molecular-weight substances in the hydrogels on the conditions of their synthesis were studied. Suitability of particular powdery hydrogels synthesized for the preparation of silicone rubber-hydrogel composites is discussed.

    Description / Table of Contents: Die Wirkung von aliphatischem Korrosionsschutzöl auf das Aushärte- und Abbauverhalten eines ölkompatiblen Epoxidharzklebers wurde mittels Differentialkalorimetrie (DSC), Fourier-Transformations-Infrarot-Spektroskopie (FTIR) und Thermogravimetrie (TGA) untersucht. Die Ergebnisse der DSC- und FTIR-Messungen deuten darauf hin, daß die Härtungsgeschwindigkeit des untersuchten Epoxid-Systems durch das Vorhandensein des Öls nur wenig beeinflußt wird. Dennoch bestätigt das Absinken der exothermen Härtungskurve, begleitet von einer Verbreiterung des Glasübergangstemperaturbereichs, daß das Öl den Aushärtemechanismus beeinflussen kann und in der Lage ist, die Struktur des gehärteten Harzes zu verändern. Außerdem geht aus den TGA-Messungen hervor, daß die Temperaturbeständigkeit des Harzes sich in Gegenwart des Öls verschlechtert; dies wird auf Veränderungen in der Struktur und im Abbaumechanismus des Epoxid-Systems zurückgeführt.
    Notes: The effect of aliphatic slushing oil on the curing and degradation behavior of an oil-accommodating epoxy adhesive is studied by using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The results of FTIR and DSC indicate that the curing rate of the tested epoxy system is little affected in the presence of the oil. However, the decrease of the curing exotherm accompanied with a broadening of the glass transition confirms that the oil can affect the curing mechanisms and may change the structure of the cured resin. Additionally, it is evident from the TGA results that the thermal resistance of the resin deteriorates in the presence of the oil, which is attributed to the changes in the structure and the degradation mechanism of the epoxy system.

Reaktionsdauer, Temperatur und das Aluminium/Nickel-Verhältnis wurden auf maximale Aktivität und Selektivität optimiert. Umsätze über 90% konnten erreicht werden. Im Vergleich zu Polybutadienen, die mit anderen Nickel-Phosphin-Systemen hergestellt wurden, zeigten die synthetisierten Polybutadiene höhere cis-1,4-Anteile (〈80%) und eine geringe Bildung von 1,2-Einheiten (2%). Alle Polymeren hatten niedrige mittlere Molekulargewichte (Mw 〉 11 800).

Reaction time, temperature and aluminium/nickel molar ratio were optimized in order to achieve maximum activity and selectivity. Conversions higher than 90% were obtained in contrast to other nickel-based systems using phosphine ligands, the resulting polybutadiene showed high cis-1,4 (〈80%) content and only small amount of 1,2-units (2%). All polymers presented low molecular weights (Mw 〉 11 800).

    Description / Table of Contents: Bei der Bestrahlung von Polymethylmethacrylat (PMMA) mit Röntgensynchrotronstrahlung ändert sich die chemische Struktur des Polymeren. Die Ergebnisse der analytischen Untersuchungen dieser Arbeit weisen darauf hin, daß neben einem Abbau der Polymerketten auch einzelne Esterseitengruppen abgespalten werden. Durch die Bestrahlung entstehende Langkettenverzweigungen wurden bei PMMA nicht gefunden. Dadurch unterscheiden sich die physikalischen und chemischen Eigenschaften des bestrahlten Polymeren von denen des unbestrahlten.
    Notes: The irradiation of poly(methyl methacrylate) changes the chemical constitution of the polymer. In addition to a decrease in molar mass further radiation-induced radical reactions cause changes in the chemical constitution of the polymer. Analysis of the reaction products shows that formation of long-chain branching can be excluded. Along with degradation of the chain lengths, ester groups in the side chains are attacked. The result is a modified polymer with a physical and chemical behaviour different from that of the starting polymer.

    Description / Table of Contents: Die Zähigkeit von Polyarylaten wurde durch den Einbau von 4,4′-Thiodiphenol und Bisphenol A, die in der wäßrigen Phase einer Grenzflächenpolykondensation vorgelegt wurden, erhöht. Die modifizierten Polyarylate besitzen leicht erniedrigte Zugfestigkeiten und Zugmoduli, aber aufgrund der Flexibilität der eingebauten Segmente stark erhöhte Izod-Schlagzähigkeiten. Darüber hinaus bleiben die guten thermischen Eigenschaften der Polyarylate nach der Modifizierung erhalten, so daß die hergestellten Materialien auch für Anwendungen mit sehr hohen Anforderungen an die thermische Belastbarkeit geeignet sind.
    Notes: The toughness of polyarylates was improved by incorporation of 4,4′-thiodiphenol and bisphenol A, being introduced in the aqueous phase of an interfacial polycondensation reaction. The modified polyarylates possessed slightly lower tensile strength and modulus but much higher Izod impact strength due to the flexibility of the incorporated segments. In addition, the superb thermal properties typical for polyarylates were reserved in the modified polyarylate, thus assuring its broad applicability for those applications where extremely stringent criteria of thermal characteristics are required.

    Notes: The critical conditions in which the classical Flory-Stockmayer gelation theory (F-S theory) is applicable to monovinyl-divinyl copolymerizations were pursued in detail. The resulting prepolymers or precursors of ideal crosslinked-polymers were characterized as standard polymers for the discussion of network formation in free-radical monovinyl-divinyl copolymerizations. Methyl methacrylate was copolymerized with a small amount of ethylene dimethacrylate, butylene dimethacrylate or nonapropyleneglycol dimethacrylate in the presence of lauryl mercaptan, a chain transfer agent to reduce the occurrence of a thermodynamic excluded volume effect and intramolecular crosslinking as the primary and secondary factors, respectively, for the greatly delayed gelation in the free-radical monovinyl-divinyl copolymerizations and, moreover, to keep the primary chain length constant by inhibiting a gel effect. The ratio of the actual gel point to the theoretical one reached 1.1, supporting the validity of F-S theory. The resulting prepolymers were subjected to SEC-MALLS analysis to determine the molecular weights, the molecular-weight distributions and the radii of gyration; the correlations of molecular weight vs. elution volume and radius of gyration vs. molecular weight were useful for the characterization of the precursors of ideal network-polymers.

In N,N-Dimethylformamid wird vorwiegend Chlordeoxypullulan gebildet, während in Pyridin bei niedrigen Temperaturen der Mesylester das Hauptprodukt ist. In N,N-Dimethylacetamide entstehen Chlordeoxy und Mesylgruppen im Verhältnis 2:1. Durch die Einführung der Chlordeoxy- bzw. Mesylgruppen werden die Mikropartikel hydrophob.
    Notes: The reaction of mesyl chloride with crosslinked pullulan microparticles was investigated, in particular the influence of the reaction conditions on the ratio between the two possible products chlorodeoxy or O-mesyl pullulan. It was found that in N,N-dimethylformamide the preponderent reaction product is chlorodeoxy pullulan, while in pyridine at low temperatures the main product is the mesyl ester of pullulan. In N,N-dimethylacetamide, the substituent groups are both chlorodeoxy and mesyl ones, in about 2:1 ratio. By the introduction of either chlorodeoxy or mesyl groups, the pullulan-crosslinked microparticles become hydrophobic.

    Description / Table of Contents: Poly(4-hydroxybutylacrylat) poly(4-HBA) wurde aus wäßrigem Medium mit Ammoniumpersulfat als Initiator auf Seide (bombyx mori) aufgepfropft. Die Gewichtszunahme stieg proportional mit der Monomerkonzentration im Pfropfsystem. Der Pfropfgrad lag im Bereich von 45 bis 65%. Die Feuchtigkeitsaufnahme nahm bei einer Gewichtszunahme von 〉10% stark ab. Die mechanischen Eigenschaften der Seidenfasern zeigten mit steigender Gewichtszunahme keine wesentliche Änderung. Doppelbrechung und isotroper Brechungsindex nahmen bis zu einer Gewichtszunahme von 35% ab und blieben dann unverändert. Röntgenbeugungsdiagramme zeigten, daß die kristalline Struktur durch die Pfropfbehandlung nicht modifiziert wird. Kalorimetrische (DSC), thermomechanische (TMA) und thermogravimetrische (TG) Analysen ergaben, daß das thermische Verhalten der poly(4-HBA)-gepfropften Seidenfasern nur leicht verändert wird. Die zur Bestimmung des dynamisch-mechanischen Verhaltens der Seidenfasern durchgeführten DMA-Messungen zeigten eine Verschiebung der E′- und E″-Modulspitzen zu niedrigeren Temperaturen mit steigender Gewichtszunahme. Ablagerungen auf der Faseroberfläche der bei einem hohen Monomer/Seide-Verhältnis (〉50%) gepfropften Seide wurden mit Rasterelektronenmikroskopie nachgewiesen.
    Notes: Poly(4-hydroxybutyl acrylate) poly(4-HBA) was graft-copolymerized onto silk fibres (bombyx mori) in aqueous medium with ammonium persulfate as initiator. The weight gain increased with increasing concentration of monomer in the grafting system. The grafting efficiency ranged from 45 to 65%. Equilibrium moisture regain decreased sharply beyond 10% weight gain. The tensile properties of the silk fibres did not change significantly as a function of the increasing weight gain. Birefringence and isotropic refractive index decreased until 35% weight gain and then remained unchanged. The X-ray diffraction patterns showed that the crystalline structure was not affected by grafting. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermomechanical (TMA), and thermogravimetric (TG) measurements showed that poly(4-HBA)-grafted silk fibres underwent only slight changes in the thermal behaviour. The dynamic mechanical measurements (DMA) exhibited a downward shift of both the storage (E′) and loss modulus peak (E″) with increasing weight gain. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) observations showed the presence of some deposits adhering to the surface of silk fibres grafted at high monomer/silk ratio (〉50%).

    Notes: The influence on the excess scattering function P(μ) of flutuations in the electron density ρ within a macromolecule is treated, to the approximation that the solvent is a structureless medium of constant electron density ρ0. The results for P(μ) and the apparent value of the mean square radius Rapp2, can be expressed as functions of the excess electron density Δρ: P(μ) = X(μ) + (Δρ)-1Y(μ) + (Δρ)-2Z(μ) and Rapp2 = Rx2 + (Δρ)-1Ry2 + (Δρ)-2Rz2, where X(μ) and Rx2 depend only on the shape of the macromolecule, while Y(μ) and Ry2 as well as Z(μ) and Rz2 depend on the shape and the fluctuations in ρ. By varying the electron density of the solvent, the contributions of the shape and the internal structure of the macromolecule can be resolved. The quantities Rx2, Ry2, and Rz2 are evaluated for seven models to illustrate the relative importance of these contributions for representative structures.

    Notes: The chiroptical properties of the cyclic dipeptides cyclo (L-alanyl-L-tyrosine) and cyclo(L-tyrosyl-L-tyrosine) have been investigated as a function of molecular conformation. Theoretical optical calculations and conformational energy calculations have been carried out as a function of the side-chain dihedral angles χ1 and χ2, and as a function of the angle of fold of the cyclic dipeptide backbone. The results of these theoretical calculations have been compared with experimental circular dichroism (CD) data. Theoretical predictions are in very good agreement with experiment for c(L-Tyr-L-Tyr). Agreement was not quite as good for c(L-Ala-L-Tyr), although the signs of all of the Cotton effects were apparently predicted correctly except for that associated with the lowest energy tyrosine absorption band.

    Notes: The slow kinetics of annealing processes in multistranded nucleic acids is spectrophotometrically investigated using poly(A)·2poly(U) as a model system. The absorbance changes at specific wavelengths show that double-helical (A·U) base pairs appear as transient intermediates. The annealing process is identified by the enlargement of triple-helical sequences at the cost of (A·U) base pairs and unpaired (U) residues. A large time range in the reorganization of mismatched chain configurations is characterized by a logarithmic dependence on time. This observation is quantitatively described by a kinetic model developed by Jackson. In Jackson's model the rate-limiting process in the slow annealing phase of maximizing triple-helical sequences, is the removal of strand entanglements, knots, and hairpin loops by complete unwinding of those helical stretches which stabilize the mismatched configurations. The results of the present study are briefly discussed in terms of optimum conditions for hybridization experiments and for the preparation of polynucleotide complexes commonly used to produce interferons.

    Fluorescence of proteins in aqueous neutral salt solutions. I. Influence of anions (1977)

    Notes: The effects of anions of neutral salts on the fluorescence emission of six proteins as well as on tryptophan and tyrosine were studied in relation to the structure of proteins. Most anions are good quenchers of tryptophyl and tyrosyl fluorescence, free or in proteins. The results with tryptophan and tyrosine indicate involvement of a collisional quenching mechanism due to agreement with Stern-Volmer law. The deactivation of fluorescence probably occurs because of the transition from singlet state to triplet state. Lehrer's modification of Stern-Volmer law was applied to proteins. The effective quenching constants ([KQ]eff) and the fraction of fluorescence available ([fa]eff) to the quencher are also calculated.In contrast to its effect on tryptophan, CH3COO- quenches tyrosyl fluorescence and ClO4- does not. The effects on fluorescence of ribonuclease and free tyrosine are similar and without any changes in emission maximum. The anions are divided into three groups based on the effect they have on tryptophan-containing proteins. (1) NO3-, NO2-, Br-, and I- have high [KQ]eff values and readily quench tryptophyl fluorescence of proteins causing a shift of emission maximum to a shorter wavelength. This change is due to the specific quenching of “exposed” tryptophan residues which are accessible to quenchers and the observed residual fluorescence is from the “buried” tryptophyls. (2) ClO4- and SCN- also quench fluorescence of tryptophan in proteins and have lower ([KQ]eff) values. In their presence the fluorescence maximum is shifted to a longer wavelength, which indicates the unfolding of a protein with [(fa)eff] = 1. (3) Cl-, CH3COO-, and SO4— do not have a direct effect on the fluorescence of tryptophan. Besides the “direct” effects, “indirect” effects on fluorophors in protein are also seen, pointing out that the neutral salts can interact in more than one manner with proteins. The effectiveness of anions in quenching fluorescence of proteins follows similar sequences which almost resemble the Hofmeister series, viz., SO4=, CH3COO- ≃ Cl- 〈 ClO4- 〈 SCN- 〈 Br- 〈 I- 〈 NO3- 〈 NO2-.

    Notes: The influence of pH upon CD spectra of H-Trp-Trp-OH, H-Trp-Trp-Gly-OH, and H-Gly-Trp-Trp-OH is investigated and data are compared with those obtained for peptides containing only one tryptophyl residue. A negative Cotton effect at around 225 nm, which in previous work has been related to an increase of the conformational rigidity in compounds having the sequence -CO-Trp-Trp, is also observed in the case of H-Trp-Trp-OH and H-Trp-Trp-Gly-OH upon deprotonation of the terminal α-amino group. These data, together with observations arising from solvent and temperature effects, give evidence that H-Trp-Trp-OH undergoes a conformational change upon going from acid to alkaline conditions, where the two aromatic side chains become conformationally more rigid relative to each other. This rigidity generates an exciton coupling between the Bb transitions of the two indoles. Hydrophobic forces, including stacking interactions, do not appear important in stabilizing this conformationally rigid structure. Rather, intramolecular electrostatic interactions (e.g., hydrogen bondings or polar interactions between the aromatic side chain and the peptide backbone) as well as interactions with the OH group(s) of the solvent, are suggested to be the salient forces. Possible structures which obey these requisites are discussed.

    Notes: The fine structure of the thermal denaturation of viral DNA's was analyzed with the spectral method established by Felsenfeld and Hirschman, and Fresco et al. A fully automated system measuring melting curves at four wavelengths at the same time was developed for this purpose. With this device, (G + C)-contents of melting components of λ DNA's were determined. The correlation between the (G + C)-content and the melting temperature of each melting component is found to be well described by the linear relationship given by Marmur and Doty. The denaturation of each component is regarded as cooperative. The Marmur-Doty relation also stands for the local denaturation of T2 DNA, which has a narrow melting range.

    Notes: We have constructed an apparatus for the simultaneous measurement of electrophoretic mobility, μ, and diffusion coefficient, D, of macromolecules and cells. It combines band electrophoresis in a vertical, sucrose-gradient stabilized column, with quasielastic laser light-scattering determination of the diffusion coefficient of the species within the band. The entire electrophoresis cell is scanned through the laser beam of the quasielastic laser light-scattering apparatus by a vertical translation stage. Total intensity light-scattering measurement at each point in the cell gives the macromolecular concentration at that point. Solvent viscosity and electrical potential are measured at each point in the cell. Application of this apparatus to resealed red blood cell ghosts and to bovine hemoglobin indicates that measurements of field, viscosity, and migration distance are reliable, and that electroosmosis is insignificant. Application to T4D bacteriophage gives μ20,w = (-1.05 ± 0.05) × 10-4 cm2/V sec and D20,w = (3.35 ± 0.10) × 10-8 cm2/sec for fiberless particles, and μ20,w = -(0.59 ± 0.03) × 10-4 cm2/V sec and D20,w = (2.86 ± 0.09) × 10-8 cm2/sec for whole phage with 6 fibers. Approximate analysis of these results with the Henry electrophoresis theory for spheres in dicates that each fiber contributes about 193 positive charges to the phage particle, compared with 327 from amino-acid analysis. The advantages and disadvantages of this apparatus, relative to conventional electrophoresis and to electrophoretic light scattering, are discussed.

    Notes: Poly(His-Ala-Glu) and poly(Lys-Ala-Glu) were examined by viscosity and potentiometric titration. These measurements were interpreted in terms of the hydrodynamic size of the above sequential polypeptides. Effects of polymer, size and concentration, and solution-salt concentration were demonstrated. Although the sequential polypeptides generally behave like polyampholytes, they do demonstrate some differences. These differences my be attributed to the ability of ionized side chains three residues apart to repel themselves, in the order His 〈 Glu 〈 Lys.

    Notes: Proton magnetic resonance spectra of model dipeptide molecules R1-C′1O1-N2H2-C2αH2αR2-C′2O2-N3H3-R3 in CCl4 solutions exhibit splited signals when investigating on mixtures of L and D enantiomers differing from the racemic composition. The major effect is observed on amide proton signals which are the ones most sensitive to the ratio of aggregation. The stereoselective dimerization of enantiomeric molecules in the so-called C5 conformational state is shown to be responsible for such a phenomenon, the intensity of which depends on the bulkiness of the side chain R2. A theoretical approach is proposed which gives predictions in close agreement with our own experimental findings.

    Notes: The depolarization thermal current method is applied to the study of the polarization phenomena in the keratin-water system. Three depolarization thermal current peaks have been evidenced in hair keratin. This paper deals with the detailed study of peak II. For the first time, the mechanism responsible for this peak is ascribed to molecular reorientation. The effect of water upon the characteristics of peak II is also described, and an activation energy of 8.4 kcal/mol is computed. These results, in connection with other studies, lead us to interpret peak II as due to the reorientation in the bound or intermediate water molecules. The effect of copper confirms that the carboxyl groups are hydration sites.

    Notes: Infrared spectroscopy was used for the determination of the base-pairing content of four specific tRNAs in deuterium oxide solution. Infrared spectra were obtained in the 1750-1550 cm-1 region at various temperatures ranging from about 15 to 90°C. Melting curves were constructed by plotting the molar extinction coefficient at ν = 1657 cm-1 versus temperature. These transition curves enabled us to determine the ranges of temperature which correspond to the ordered (partially double-stranded) or randomly coiled structure of the tRNA. For a set of wavenumbers the extinction coefficients at these temperatures were used for the calculation of the base-pairing content. The procedure employed here is based on a method described earlier by Thomas [(1969) Biopolymers 7, 325-334]. For the conditions selected for this investigation (Mg2+-free D2O-buffer; 0.01M tris-DCl, 0.015M NaCl, pD 7.5) the results of this determination agree within the limits of errors with the number of base pairs predicted by the cloverleaf model.

    Notes: We have calculated the translational and rotational frictional coefficients of structures related to T2 and T4 bacteriophage, using the theoretical framework developed in the preceding two papers. The structures considered were models for tail-fiberless phage, and for whole phage with fibers in the extended and retracted portions. We also computed and compared with the experiment the changes in translational frictional coefficient produced by successive addition of 1-6 fibers to the fiberless particle. Agreement with experimental results is markedly improved over previous theoretical efforts, especially with respect to the effect of tail-fiber extension. Some significant discrepancies remain, however, in the comparison of fiber-retracted and fiberless phage.

For the one structure, a prolate ellipsoid of revolution, for which exact solutions are available, a subunit model with the same length and volume gives asymptotic agreement with the Perrin equations. Other structures considered include plane polygonal rings, lollipops, and dumbbells.

    Notes: We have studied the effects of temperature, EDTA, and ionic strength on C-polysaccharides in solution by examining the details of the time-correlation function using a 96-channel single-clipped photon correlation spectrometer. Our linewidth results have shown that the C-polysaccharides in buffer solution form aggregates of very broad distributions. Thus, fractionation by gel-filtration chromatography is only mildly effective. Although the aggregate sizes seem to remain relatively constant from 4 to 25°C, a fraction of those aggregates break up to form smaller fragments or monomers at higher temperatures. However, the dissolution-association process is quite slow and takes days even at room temperatures before the equilibrium is reached. We have also shown that by adding an excess amoutn of EDTA, the aggregates can be broken up. Again the dramatic changes occur only at short delay times suggesting that a protion of the larger aggregates remains. Finally, the amount and size of aggregates depend upon the ionic strength which exhibit a maximum ΓT/sin2 (θ/2) around 0.1-0.2 M KCl.If the activities of polysaccharides in solution depend upon molecular size, the standard techniques such as gel-permeation chromatography and ultracentrifugation cannot properly characterize the detailed size distribution. Quasielastic laser light scattering can provide us with a qualitative model. The quantitative details must necessarily await more extensive investigations using a combination of the techniques and better fractionation procedures in an appropriate buffer solution.

    Notes: The coupling of N-acyl-α-amino-acids with α-hydroxyacid-methyl amides results in depsipeptide molecules containing two chiral centers and one ester function inserted between two amide functions. Their conformational features have been investigated by IR spectroscopy, proton magnetic resonance, X-ray diffraction, and theoretical P.C.I.L.O. calculations.It is shown that most of these molecules are folded by an intramolecular 4 → 1 hydrogen bonding. Two folded conformations, similar to the well known β turn in peptides, are described, the stability of which depends on the configurational sequence in the investigated molecule.LL and LD species are folded in two different ways whereas LG sequences containing an achiral hydroxy-acid residue accommodate both of them. The presence of a N-terminal achiral amino acid noticeably decreases the folding ratio.The above conclusions are then compared with the conformational features of homologous tripeptide molecules.

    Notes: The kinetics of complex formation between fluorescein mercuric acetate and heat-denatured DNA were studied by measuring the fluorescence quenching of this reagent. This quenching process involved no immeasurably rapid phase and it was shown that this reaction follows simple second-order kinetics. The rate constant at 25°C was estimated to be 2.9 × 104M-1 sec-1 for calf-thymus DNA (42% G + C) and 1.1 × 104M-1 sec-1 for Micrococcus lysodeikticus DNA (72% G + C). Activation parameters for this reaction were calculated from the temperature dependence of the reaction rate, and the activation entropy was found to be highly negative (-27.5 cal/mol deg for calf-thymus DNA and -25.5 cal/mol deg for M. lysodeikticus DNA). The binding of fluorescein mercuric acetate to native DNA, which requires the opening of the double-helical structure, was also followed by measuring the absorbance change of this reagent. There was a lag phase in this binding process, and the enthalpy change for the opening step corresponded roughly to that for the opening of one base pair. These findings are discussed in relation to the results of a similar study with formaldehyde.

    Notes: The formation of collagen fibrils from soluble monomers and aggregates by thermal gelation at neutral pH can be divided into two distinct stages: a nucleation phase and a growth phase. Turbidity studies of the kinetics of the precipitation reaction show that the lag-phase time or nucleation reaction time, t′l, is markedly temperature dependent while the growth reaction time is temperature independent. The activation energy of the nucleation reaction is essentially constant over the temperature range studied. In monitoring the nucleation-phase reaction by various physicochemical techniques, including viscosity, sedimentation equilibrium, and light scattering, no evidence for the formation of aggregates was observed. Enrichment of the initial collagen solution with aggregates accelerates nucleation, but de novo nuclei formation is still required even in highly aggregated collagen preparations. Removal of pepsin and pronase susceptible peptides lengthens the nucleation reaction time and increases the sensitivity of the rate of nuclei formation to changes in ionic strength. Electron microscope studies show the fibrils formed from the protease-treated collagen to be less well organized. With pepsin-treated collagen, subfibrils and obliquely striated fibrils are seen, showing that while microfibrils are formed interactions between them are modulated by the enzyme susceptible peptides in the same way that these regions modulate nuclei assembly. It appears that pepsin and pronase susceptible peptide regions of collagen play a more prominent role in the in vitro assembly of collagen molecules to form D-stagger nuclei and fibrils than do ionic interactions between helical molecular regions. A mechanism of nucleation of collagen fibrillogenesis is discussed.

    Notes: Circular dichroism spectra of the nucleic acid monomers have been measured in aqueous solution and extended into the vacuum ultraviolet region to about 166 nm. Measurements were made on ribo and deoxyribo derivatives of adenine, guanine, hypoxanthine, cytosine, thymine, and uracil derivatives both with and without the 5′-phosphate (with the exception of ribosyl thymine 5′-phosphate). Absorption spectra of the deoxyribonucleotides measured to about 175 nm are also presented. The results demonstrate that both the circular dichroism and absorption spectra observed below 200 nm are no more complicated than the spectra normally recorded above 200 nm. In most cases, the circular dichroism spectra of the various derivatives of a given base are similar, indicating that the conformations are similar. On the other hand, the differences among the circular dichroism spectra of the various derivatives of a given base are sufficient to identify a particular derivative. The average circular dichroism for the deoxyribonucleotides is compared with the circular dichroism of native E. coli DNA. The comparison reveals that the circular dichroism of DNA below 200 nm is due principally to the interaction between the bases rather than the intrinsic circular dichroism of the monomers. The monomer transitions are discussed in relationship to the absorption and circular dichroism spectra presented.

    Notes: A theory for the determination of DNA arrangements in DNA-containing specimens, using planar aromatic dye molecules as probes for plane polarization of fluorescence, has been described. At low dye-to-DNA concentrations, the dye molecules are sandwiched between the stacked bases of DNA; hence, the fluorescence from the dye bound to a local region of DNA helix is plane-polarized with the polarization direction perpendicular to the local axis of DNA. The degree of such polarization from an aligned DNA-specimen complexed with dye is determined both by the DNA orientation and the conformational state (e.g., base tilt) of DNA into that specimen. Analysis has been made of the relationship between the degree of polarization and the orientation of the emitting dipoles of dye. The dye complexes may be aligned in a mechanical shear or electric field. However, any change in the orientation distribution of the emitting dipoles due to force fields should be taken into account. With some assumptions and approximations, the magnitude and the direction of maximum polarization can be related to different orders of DNA coiling and to their various combinations. Since the measured polarization is averaged over all DNA regions of the specimen, if the magnitude of polarization is appreciable and the polarization occurs in the specific direction of the specimen, the theory helps to eliminate several probable arrangements of DNA. The predominant molecular features of the actual DNA arrangement can be determined through this process of elimination, as explained in two subsequent papers with T-even bacteriophage and chromosome systems.

    Notes: Fluorescence of 2-p-toluidinylnaphthalene-6-sulfonate (TNS) was enhanced in the presence of maltooligosaccharides, amylose, and other α-glucans. The dependence of relative TNS fluorescence intensity per glucose unit on chain length of oligosaccharides was examined. The values of binding constant and thermodynamic parameters, assuming the 1:1 complex for TNS-amylose (number-average degree of polymerization, DPN = 17), were determined by the fluorescence titration. The values of thermodynamic parameters for 1:1 complex formation of TNS-α- and β-cyclodextrins were also determined and compared with those of TNS-amylose (DPN = 17). The fluorescence intensity of TNS in the presence of amylose (DPN = 600) decreased by the action of glucoamylase and taka-amylase A. The fluorescence of TNS-amylose (DPN = 17) system increased with the increased ionic strength. In the presence of pullulan, TNS fluorescence was also enhanced and decreased by the action of pullulanase. Amylopectin enhanced TNS fluorescence rather more strongly than amylose (DPN = 17) at the same concentration. In the presence of dextran, the fluorescence of TNS was scarcely enhanced. The degree of fluorescence enhancement of TNS in the presence of α-glucans seems to reflect the structures of α-glucans in solution, since TNS fluorescence is enhanced in the hydrophobic environment or by the disturbance of free intramolecular rotation.

    Notes: Water-soluble, random copolymers containing L-methionine and N5-(3-hydroxypropyl)-L-glutamine have been prepared, fractionated, and characterized. The thermally induced helix-coil transitions of these copolymers in water have been investigated, and it has been found that incorporation of L-methionine increases the helix content of the polymers at all temperatures in the range of 0-60°C. The Zimm-Bragg parameters σ and s for the helix-coil transition in poly(L-methionine) in water were deduced from an analysis of the melting curves of the copolymers using the methods described in earlier papers.

    Notes: Normal vibrational analysis was carried out for DNA molecules in both A and B conformations as well as for A-RNA. A simplified backbone model was examined and expanded to include the backbone phosphate-group and the ribose ring. We applied the new force-constant refinement procedure discussed in the preceeding paper [Van Zandt, L. L., Lu, K.-C. & Prohofsky, E. W. (1977) Biopolymers, 16, 2481-90] to fit some observed frequencies in the Raman spectra for all three nucleic acids with the same set of force constants. The results indicate that the observed frequency shift can be attributed to the conformational change solely. We ignored the second-order differences in force constants for the different geometries. The agreement between the observed and calculated frequencies derived from the final refined set of force constants is good and apparently justifies this assumption. Two modes previously assigned to the symmetric diester O-P-O stretch and the symmetric dioxy O‥P‥O stretch are actually fitted. They are mainly backbone phosphate-group modes. The refined ribose-ring force-constants were transferred to the calculation of the vibrational spectrum of tetrahydrofuran. The overall agreement is again good. We discuss these calculations and the resulting normal modes. We also discuss the application of the Green-function refinement scheme and several strategies adopted to bias the convergence of the procedure.

    Notes: A study of the conformational states of the dinucleotide coenzyme NAD+ has been made using semiempirical energy calculations. Taking low-energy mononucleotide structures as starting conformations, energy minimizations have been performed. The lowest energy states are stacked structures, with interactions between the adenine and nicotinamide rings. Some structures show stabilization gained from electrostatic attractions between the positively charged nicotinamide and negatively charged phosphate oxygens. These predictions correlate well with the available experimental data.

    Notes: Water-soluble block copolymers of the type (A)m-(B)n-(A)p, where (A)m,p was either poly(D,L-lysine-α,β,β,γ,γ,δ,δ-d7) or poly(D,L-lysine) and (B)n was either poly(L-alanine) or poly(L-phenylalanine), were synthesized for conformational studies by proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy. Analytical determination of the amount of the initiator fragment (n-hexylamine) at the C-terminus of the copolymers was used to obtain the number-average degrees of polymerization, DPn, and thereby, together with the amino acid composition, to establish the covalent structures of the polymers. The values of DPn were found to be much lower than those deduced from sedimentation equilibrium or form viscosity measurements. These deviations, which also are thought to have arisen in similar studies reported in the literature, are attributable to intermolecular aggregation; the relation of such aggregation to covalent structure (and its effect on the polymerization reaction) is discussed in terms of the conditions and mechanism of synthesis of block copolymers of amino acids.

    Interaction between poly(L-lysine48, L-histidine52) and DNA (1977)

    Notes: Poly(Lys48, His52), a random copolypeptide of L-lysine (48%) and L-histidine (52%), was used as a model protein for investigating the effects of protonation on the imidazole group of histidines on protein binding to DNA. The complexes formed between poly(Lys48, His52) and DNA were examined using absorbance, circular dichroism (CD), and thermal denaturation. Although increasing pH reduces the charges on histidine side chains in the model protein, the protein still binds the DNA with approximately one positive charge per negative charge in protein-bound regions. Nevertheless, CD and melting properties of poly(Lys48, His52)-DNA complexes still depend upon the solution pH which determines the protonation state of imidazole group of histidine side chains. At pH 7.0, the complexes show two characteristic melting bands with a tm (46-51°C) for free base pairs and a t′m (94°C) for protein-bound base pairs. The t′m of the complexes is reduced to 90°C at pH 9.2, although at this pH there is still one lysine per phosphate in protein-bound regions. Presumably, the presence of deprotonated histidine residues destabilizes the native structure of protein-bound DNA. The binding of this model protein to DNA causes a red shift of the crossover point and both a red shift and a reduction of the positive CD band of DNA near 275 nm. This phenomenon is similar to that caused by polylysine binding. These effects, however, are greatly diminished when histidine side chains in the model protein are deprotonated. The structure of already formed poly(Lys48, His52)·DNA complexes can be perturbed by changing the solution pH. However, the results suggest a readjustment of the complex to accommodate charge interactions rather than a full dissociation of the complex followed by reassociation between the model protein and DNA.

    Notes: A theoretical analysis of the conformation of the octapeptide hormone Asn1, Val5 angiotensin II has been carried out by semiempirical potential energy calculations. A preliminary study of the Ala6-Pro-Ala molecule, which mimics the angiotensin backbone, provided us with likely backbone structures on which the effect of the full side chains of the hormone could be assessed. For angiotensin II, the calculations show that only a small number of folded, compact conformations have a high probability of existence. This is the consequence of favorable packing and of the presence of proline in position 7. These results are consistent with various experimental data, both structural and biological. This method is readily applicable to the study of analogs of the hormone or to other peptides of comparable size.

    Effect of charge density of cationic polyelectrolytes on complex formation with DNA (1977)

    Notes: The interaction between DNA and ionen polymers, -[N+(CH3)2(CH2)mN+(CH3)2(CH2)n]l-, with m-n of 3-3, 6-6, and 6-10 were examined in order to know how the binding behavior of cationic polymers with DNA depends on the charge density of polycation. The ionen polymer has no bulky side chain and the binding forces with DNA would be attributed mainly to electrostatic interaction. When 3-3 ionen polymers were added to DNA solution, precipitable complexes with the ratio of cationic residue to DNA phosphate (+/-) of 1/1 and the free DNA molecules were segregated, while 6-6 and 6-10 ionen polymers formed soluble complexes with DNA molecules up to (+/-) = 0.5. This suggests that 3-3 ionen polymers bind cooperatively with DNA while 6-6 and 6-10 ionen polymers bind noncooperatively. The cooperative binding of 3-3 ionen polymer and the noncooperative binding of 6-6 ionen polymer were also supported by the thermal melting and recooling profiles from the midpoint between first and second meltings. It was concluded that the charge density of DNA phosphate is a critical value determining whether the ionen polymers bind to DNA by a cooperative or by a noncooperative binding, since the distance between successive cationic charges of 3-3 ionen polymer is shorter than that between successive phosphate charges on DNA double helix and those of 6-6 and 6-10 ionen polymers are longer.

    Quasielastic light scattering: Effect of ionic strength on the internal dynamics of DNA (1977)

    Notes: Quasielastic light scattering is used to study the effect of ionic strength on the dynamic behaviour of DNA. In a first approach the spectrum of scattered light is analyzed in terms of a single relaxation process. The large difference between the observed behaviour and that expected according to a pure diffusional process reflects the contribution associated with internal modes, which increases with decreasing ionic strength. Such behaviour is better analyzed in terms of a double relaxation process by using two relaxation times, the reciprocals of which are equal to DK2 and DK2 + τi-1 (K), respectively, where τi (K) is an average value describing the set of modes observed at a given K value. Relative intensity and relaxation times, which are the more accurate parameters, were used to interpret the results. The observed increase of the relative contribution of internal modes with decreasing ionic strength is actually a relative decrease of the diffusional contribution induced by a corresponding increase of the radius of gyration RG. On the other hand, the reciprocal τi-1 (K) of the relaxation time is a linear function of K2 in the analyzed KRG range and is insensitive to ionic strength between 10-2M and 1M. These results, when discussed according to Rouse's model, lead to define for each value of τi-1 (K) a corresponding mean-squared equilibrium length 〈μi2〉 which is found to be a linear function of K-2.

    Notes: Derivatives and peptides of β-nitrobenzyl-L-aspartates were studied with high-field nmr. Differences were observed between the chemical shifts of protons located near the extremity of the principal chain as a function of the terminal group. These differences are explained by conformational calculations which exclude the existence of an hydrogen bond and demonstrate the influence of the aromatic ring position on the protons of the main chain. Both nmr experiments and conformational analysis indicate that conformations are nearly the same for ortho, meta, and para nitro substitution. These conclusions are in good agreement with Karplus relationship applied to the α and β protons.

    Effect of the fluctuations in electron density within a globular protein on the excess small-angle X-ray scattering (1977)

    Notes: Excess small angle X-ray scattering in solvents of differing electron density has been calculated from the crystal structures obtained for rubredoxin, trypsin inhibitor, myogen, ferricytochrome c2, ribonuclease S, lysozyme, nuclease, myoglobin, α-chymotrypsin, elastase, subtilisin, carboxypeptidase A, thermolysin, methemoglobin, deoxyhemoglobin, and a single polypeptide chain of M4 lactate dehydrogenase. The scattering curves for each protein can be reproduced by the sum of three curves, with the weighting of the three curves depending on the electron density of the solvent. The radius of gyration obtained from the small angle X-ray scattering by globular proteins in aqueous solution will usually exceed the values defined by the shape of the macromolecule. Deviations for certain of the proteins cited are calculated to be as large as 6%. These deviations arise from the tendency for the amino acid residues with low electron density to be situated closer to the center of the protein than the amino acid residues of high electron density. An upper limit of 19% is obtained for the discrepancy between the radius of gyration defined by the shape of a spherical globular protein of typical amino acid composition and the apparent radius of gyration measured for that protein in water by small angle X-ray scattering.

    Notes: The ability of the macrotetrolide nactins to complex selectivity with a wide variety of cations makes these ionophorous antibiotics important model systems for the study of biologic ionic transport. We report a Raman spectroscopic investigation of the Na+, K+, Rb+, Cs+, Tl+, NH4+, NH3OH+, C(NH2)3+, and Ba++ complexes of nonactin, monactin, and dinactin in 4:1 (v/v) CH3OH/CHCl3 and in the solid state. The nactins display characteristic spectral changes upon complexation, some of which are specific for a given cation. In the K+, Rb+, Cs+, NH3OH+, and C(NH2)3+ complexes, which are apparently isosteric, the ester carbonyl stretch frequency is found to be linearly proportional to the cation-carbonyl electrostatic interaction energy, as calculated from a simplified model. Deviations for the Na+, NH4+, Tl+, and Ba++ complexes are interpreted as arising from additional nonelectrostatic interactions. Additional information is obtained from other spectral regions and from measurements of depolarization ratios. Spectra of the nactin complexes differ from each other more in the solid state than in solution, reflecting the effects of crystalline contact forces.

    Notes: The interaction of water with collagenous tissue was investigated using dynamic mechanical spectroscopy and cryogenic X-ray techniques. The loss spectrum was found to be very sensitive to water which is highly associated with the macromolecule. Two water-sensitive loss peaks were observed below 0°C: the β2 or “water dispersion” at 150°K and the β1 at 200°K which is attributed to motion of polar side chains. Changes in peak temperature and intensity were not continuous with water content, but exhibited regimes in behavior which were associated with two types of nonfreezable water, structural and bound water. In cryogenic X-ray experiments, specimens which contained some freezable water exhibited reflections identified with the cubic form of ice. These ice crystals underwent an irreversible transition to the more common hexagonal form when warmed above 200°K. On the basis of these experiments, a model for the hydration of native collagenous tissue was proposed.

    Notes: The chiroptical properties of S-proline conformational isomers are examined on a theoretical model in which electronic wave functions are obtained from semiempirical molecular orbital calculations. The CNDO/S molecular orbital model is used to perform SCF-MO calculations on ground state electronic structure and excited states are constructed in the virtual orbital-configuration interaction approximation. Electronic rotatory strengths and dipole strengths are calculated directly from the complete (but approximate) molecular electronic wave functions. Zwitterionic, cationic, and anionic S-proline structures are studied twotypes of conformational variables are represented in the calculations: (1) pyrrolidine ring conformation; and (2) rotation about the Cα-COO- bond. Rotatory strengths are found to be somewhat sensitive to rotational isomerism about the Cα-COO- bond, but are found to be rather insensitive to conformational changes within the pyrrolidine ring. The CD spectrum of zwitterionic S-proline down to ∼160 nm appears to be well accounted for by the theoretically calculated results if conformational preferences with respect to rotation about the Cα-COO- bond can be assumed to exist in solution media. Furthermore, spectra-structure correlations are offered for the anionic and cationic forms of S-proline in solution.

    Notes: This paper presents the results of a stereochemical analysis of local interactions in unfolded protein chains (sterical repulsions, hydrogen, and hydrophobic bonds, etc.) by means of space-filling modeles. On the basis of this analysis, an evaluation is made of thermodynamic parameters controlling the building-in of all the 20 natural amino acid residues in all the physically possible position of local secondary structures (α-helices, including α-helices with short fragments of helices 310 at the C-terminus; β-bends of different types, helices 310, and their combinations) as well as thermodynamic parameters of separate hydrogen bonds of polar side groups with the neighbor peptide groups (“local contacts”). The accuracy of the obtained results is discussed.

    Notes: The exchange rate of the indole nitrogen proton with solvent water protons was measured as a function of pH and temperature for tryptophan, N-methyl tryptophan, glycyl tryptophan, tryptophanamide, tryptophylglycine, and tryptophylglycyl glycine. The nmr observation was by long-pulse Fourier transform methods, and kinetics were inferred from saturation recovery, H2O transfer of saturation, and linewidth. There are observable differences between the rates of these compounds, but all are describable within a factor of two by specific acid and base-catalyzed rates kH = 100 and kOH = 108 1/mol-sec at 27°C. It is concluded that this behaviour is representative of this proton on the indole side chain in a random-chain peptide exposed to water.

    Notes: Stoichiometric mixtures of acridine orange with dermatan sulfate at total dye concentrations ≤ 1 × 10-5 M show fluorescence maxima at 540 nm and 660 nm on excitation at 436 nm. By means of membrane filtration, it is directly demonstrated that the species emitting at 540 nm is due only to unbound dye whereas the 660-nm emitting species is due to bound dye. It is, therefore, possible to differentiate unbound acridine orange from its dermatan sulfate complex solely by spectroscopic methods. Thermodynamic binding parameters can be calculated from rapid spectroscopic measurements without disturbing the system.

    Kinetic analysis of the reversible folding reactions of small proteins: Application to the folding of lysozyme and cytochrome c (1977)

    Notes: A general kinetic analysis for unimolecular three-species models is presented. Criteria are established for each model in order to allow selection among alternative models on the basis of their amplitude behavior. These criteria are applied to the previously reported kinetic data for the folding transitions of lysozyme and cytochrome c in guanidine hydrochloride. The degree of success in applying these criteria is found to depend on the extent to which the apparent rate constants, λ1 and λ2, approach each other in certain conditions. Ikai and Tanford have presented a similar kinetic analysis, although these authors considered only the case where no intermediate kinetic species was populated initially. For one protein system, namely, ribonuclease A (RNase A), at least one stable intermediate exists after unfolding outside of the equilibrium transition zone. The criteria developed by Ikai and Tanford cannot be applied to RNase A kinetics and, therefore, a more general analysis is presented. Previously published studies of the reversible folding kinetics of lysozyme and cytochrome c are reexamined using the current amplitude analysis, and it is found that both of these folding transitions can be described by the three-species model, \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$$ U_{1} \rightleftharpoons U \rightleftharpoons N $$\end{document} used previously to describe the folding kinetics of RNase A (U1 and U2 are two forms of unfolded enzyme and N is the native species). These results suggest that this three-species model may provide a fairly general description of the reversible folding kinetics of small proteins. As an outgrowth of the current analysis, several suggestions for experimental design in studying protein folding will be presented and discussed.

    Reduction of ferriprotoporphyrin IX to the ferroderivative by copoly(4-vinylpyridine-N-(p-vinylbenzyl)-3-carbamoyl-1,4-dihydropyridine) in dimethyl sulfoxide (1977)

    Notes: The copolymer which has both ligand sites (4-vinylpyridine) and redox sites (N-(p-vinylbenzyl)-3-carbamoyl-1,4-dihydropyridine) was synthesized by the dithionite reduction of the copoly(4-vinylpyridine-N-(p-vinylbenzyl)-3-carbamoylpyridinium chloride) and the reduction of a central ferric-iron of ferriprotoporphyrin IX by the above-described copolymer was studied spectrophotometrically in dimethyl sulfoxide. The rate of the reduction by the copolymer was much faster than by N-benzyl-3-carbamoyl-1,4-dihydropyridine. This acceleration by the copolymer could be explained by the intramolecular reduction of ferriprotoporphyrin IX which was coordinated by the pyridine residue of the copolymer.

    On the B to A conformation change of the double helix (1977)

    Notes: We have investigated the B to A conformation change of DNA double helices by a new method “soft-mode analysis.” We find theoretically that a mode does soften when the vibration normal modes are perturbed by increasing the electrostatic interaction between the unbalanced charges on atoms in the double helix. The same mode also softens for enhanced van der Waals interactions. The mode softening indicates the onset of conformation change. The enhancing of the electrostatic and van der Waals interaction mimic the effect of decreasing the polar nature of the solvent or water of hydration associated with the B conformation DNA. We discuss qualitatively the concept of soft modes and their relation to conformation change as well as their applicability to macromolecules. We discuss previous work in which the normal vibrational modes have been calculated. We also discuss the displacement which comes from the soft mode and show that it correlates very well with that expected for the B to A conformation charge.

    Quantitative electron microscope observations of the collagen fibrils in rat-tail tendon (1977)

    Notes: An electron microscope study of collagen fibrils from fixed tail tendons of rats has revealed that from some time shortly after birth until maturity, the fibril diameters have a bimodal distribution. The “two” types of fibril are indistinguishable in both transverse and longitudinal section. Unfixed specimens of eight-week-old-tail tendon showed a similar bimodal distribution of diameters though the positions of the peak values compared to fixed specimens of an eight-week-old-tail tendon were shifted upwards by about 30%. It has also been shown quantitatively that the polar collagen fibrils are directed randomly “up” and “down” with respect to their neighbors. Whilst it has been suggested by others that anastomosis is a feature of collagen structure, the results presented here do not support this hypothesis. Fibrillar units ∼ 140 Å in diameter have been observed and the possibilities that these are elastic fibers or the breakdown products of collagen fibrils have been considered.

    Notes: The addition of a lytic layer to a preformed linear sucrose gradient induces a temporary (up to half a day) initial gradient of considerable steepness which retards the sedimentation of large (〉T4) DNAs. Centrifugation at sufficiently slow angular velocities permits the temporary initial gradient to disappear and therefore the sedimentation distance increases, yielding a rotor speed dependent effect on sedimentation distance. Gradients which are free of this effect are described and shown to permit mouse leukemia cell DNA to sediment independently of rotor speed (5-30 krpm).

    Notes: The thermally induced helix-coil transitions of three A-T DNAs, d(A)n·d(T)n, d(A-T)n·d(A-T)n, and d(A-A-T)n·d(A-T-T)n, were studied. Experimental transition curves of the DNAs were analyzed using the loop entropy model of DNA melting. The calculation of the melting curve of d(A-A-T)n·d(A-T-T)n is presented using the integral equation formalism of Goel and Montroll. The aim of this work was to evaluate thermodynamic parameters which govern DNA stability and to test the theoretical model employed in the analysis. Our results show (1) an excellent over-all agreement between theory and experiment, (2) a loop entropy exponent k = 1.55 ± 0.05 provided the best fit to all the polymer transition curves, (3) the evaluated stacking free energies reflect the relative stability of the DNAs, and (4) the stacking energies of the ApA·TpT dimer evaluated from d(A)n·d(T)n and d(A-A-T)n·d(A-T-T)n differ. The last result is consistent with different conformations for the dimer in these two polymers.
