    Notes: Summary The epithelium of human chorion laeve from pregnancies complicated by diabetes mellitus was examined under the light and electron microscopy. In comparison with normal chorion laeve, the epithelium of chorion laeve in diabetes mellitus shows the following morphological changes: 1. The trophoblast cells display more microvilli and cell processes on their surface. 2. Trophoblast cells with different cytoplasmic characteristics can be seen. Some display few organelles and large glycogen depositions; other are rich in organelles. Furthermore, some cells with electron dense filaments and few cell organelles can be found. 3. Necrotic cells are frequently present in the outer epithelial layers. 4. The intercellular spaces in the epithelial layers near the basement membrane are narrower. Since vasculopathy of the decidual arteries with disturbance of blood circulation is often found in pathological pregnancies, we assume that the morphological changes found are due to deficiency in nutrient and oxygen supply.

    Notes: Summary Stereological techniques on electron microscopy micrographs were used to evaluate the morphological changes of cultured isletβ cells that had been exposed to alloxan or 6-hydroxydopamine. Trypan Blue exclusion by cells cultured for 3 days indicated that the cells were 100% viable. Electron microscopy revealed that nearly all of the surviving cultured cells wereβ cells. Exposure to 5 mmol/l alloxan or 1–5 mmol/l 6-hydroxydopamine for 10 or 30 min caused a general swelling of the cultured cells with a concomitant swelling of mitochondria and nuclei. The size of the secretory granules was not affected by the drugs. Only 3–10% of the cells excluded Trypan Blue after exposure to 5 mmol/l alloxan or 6-hydroxydopamine. The data conform with the hypothesis that a primary action of alloxan and 6-hydroxydopamine is at the plasma membrane level ofβ cells.

    Notes: Summary A case of small cell neuroendocrine (oat cell) carcinoma of the breast in a 52-year old male is presented. Oat cell carcinomas have been reported in various extrapulmonary sites, but this is the second case of a primary oat cell carcinoma of the breast and the first one to have been documented in a male. The tumor was investigated histologically, immunocytochemically and ultrastructurally. The relationship to so-called “carcinoid” mammary tumors is discussed.

    Notes: Summary An example of elephantiasis neuromatosa, an unusual variant of neurofibromatosis, coexistent with lipomatosis is presented. This dual cell population produced a diffuse swelling of the gluteal sulcus of a young female. The neurogenous origin of the spindle cell component was substantiated by immunoreactivity for S-100 protein as well as by the fine structural observation of a regular basement membrane coating and a profusion of Luse bodies. As far as can be ascertained, this is the first reported immunohistochemical and ultrastructural study of this particular variant of peripheral nerve sheath lesion.

    Notes: Summary A calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumor, simultaneously located in the two jaws (maxilla and mandible) was examined by histochemical and electron microscopic methods. Squamous tumor cells without secretory polarity were different from those of common ameloblastoma. High activities of alkaline phosphatase and ATPases were demonstrated by light and electron microscopy on the cytoplasmic membrane, findings similar to those in the stratum intermedium cells of the normal dental germ from which these tumor cells seem to arise. The tumor cells, like preameloblasts of the dental germ, also produce a granulo-filamentous material in intracytoplasmic vesicles and discharge it into the stroma. This “pseudo-amyloid” substance represents an abnormal protein of the enamel matrix and calcification, mainly occurring in that substance, might be an attempt at mineralization.

    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: Summary Primary granular cell tumours of the breast in 35 2and 55 year old women were studied by light microscopy, transmission electron microscopy and immunohistochemistry. Light and electron microscopy revealed a neural origin of the tumours and this was further substantiated by immunohistochemical studies, with positive S-100 protein reaction and negative reactions for surface heavy and light chains, CEA, alfa-1-antitrypsin, muramidase and GFA-protein. Granular cell tumour of the mammary gland is a very rare tumour. Clinically it sometimes simulates carcinoma because of its fibrous consistency, fixation to pectoral fascia and skin retraction. The diagnosis of granular cell tumour should be included in the differential diagnosis of carcinoma of the breast. The granular cell tumour is derived from neuro-ectodermal tissue. Whether it represents a neurogenic cell-confined metabolic disturbance with lysosomal activation, or a true neoplasm remains to be elucidated.

    Electron microscopy of urinary calculi — Some facts and artefacts (1984)

    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000

    Notes: Summary Material in urinary calculi is prone to irradiation damage during electron microscopy and this suggests the need for care in the interpretation of data. It is shown, however, that minimum-dose transmission microscopy is feasible for single-crystal electron diffraction work, and that although internal damage in severe, morphological artefacts are unlikely in the SEM unless the incident electron flux is greater than 10-13 A nm-2. During EDX micro-analysis, the detection of light elements is impaired by irradiation effects unless a minimum-dose procedure is used. For the preparation of SEM samples, artefacts can be created by cleaving air-dried material-and it is therefore important to consider more lengthy preparation methods such as cryogenics.

    Notes: Summary We used concanavalin A (con A)-peroxidase-iron dextran-diaminobenzidine (DAB) technique for the electron microscopic detection of con A binding sites on cell membranes. Normal bladder mucosa showed a sparse distribution of con A binding sites with both transmission (TEM) and scanning (SEM) electron microscopy, but bladder tumors showed a higher concentration in the distribution of con A binding sites in proportion to the histopathological grade of transitional cell carcinoma. Quantitative estimation of the con A binding sites was attempted using scanning X-ray pulse analysis of iron elements contained in the reaction complexes. Con A binding sites were quantitatively the smallest in normal mucosa, increasing proportionate to the grade of the bladder tumor. Some specimens were compared by the ferritin-labelled method and the pattern of ferritin conjugates distribution was similar to that seen with the con A-peroxidase-iron dextran method.

    Notes: Summary A study of urinary stones obtained from patients after surgery in the Medical College Hospital, Trivandrum, under the scanning electron microscope showed the presence of calcium oxalate and calcium biphosphate crystals as the main constituents. However, the pattern of the different phases of crystal growth was not uniform. Within the crystal lattice, fibrous structures, possibly of protein matrix, were invariably observed. Electron microscopy may be usefully adapted as a particularly suitable method for ultramicroscopic investigation of the fine structure of urinary stones including single crystal surface structure, section of urinary calculi and for possible presence of hitherto unknown components within the calculus.

    Notes: Summary In the canine circumanal gland, the morphological alterations of peroxisomes during differentiation and maturation of the glandular cells were studied by electron microscopy, cytochemistry and freeze-etch technique. Each of the following three cell types has its own characteristic peroxisomal population: 1) The basal cell contains only a few small peroxisomes, which appear as spherical and tubular profiles showing strong DAB reaction. In the differentiating basal cells, these are joined by a few dilated, hemispherical organelles with intensely stained small marginal plates. 2) In the intermediate cell, additional to spherical and tubular peroxisomes, numerous clongated organelles with distinct marginal plates are observed, displaying weak catalase activity. 3) In the mature cell, dumbbell-shaped peroxisomes with enlarged marginal plates predominate. Serial section analysis and freeze-etching studies reveal that these dilated particles are of erythrocyte-like shape. They exhibit very weak catalase activity or do not contain any visible DAB reaction product. In their flattened, thin central portions, the memoranes enclose the marginal plates and form straight cisternae, which are closely associated with adjacent fenestrated cisternae of ER on both sides, referred to as paramarginal cisternae. Dumbbell-shaped peroxisomes with their corresponding paramarginal cisternae form large peroxisome-ER-complexes. Furthermore, three to five dumbbell-shaped particles are often stacked in parallel. Only at their flat poles are the organelles in close contact with paramarginal cisternae. The observation of continuities, in particular between erythrocyte-like organelles and tubular peroxisomes in mature glandular cells, indicates the existence of a peroxisomal compartment composed of two segments in the mature stage. In freeze-etch replicas of mature glandular cells, only the dilated segments of the peroxisomal compartment can be easily recognized because of their unusual size and erythrocyte-like shape. Additionally, on the E-face of their central portion, a straight, square or rectangular area with a distinct crystalline pattern is seen, which corresponds to the marginal plate. These findings indicate that the circumanal gland of the dog offers unique possibility to analyze the biological properties of a well-defined peroxisomal compartment.

    Notes: Summary The ultrastructure of the wall of the Dandy-Walker cyst has been described rarely. A boy aged 2 years was confirmed clinically, neuroradiologically, and operatively as having a Dandy-Walker cyst in the posterior fossa. The cyst wall obtained during surgery consisted of an outer arachnoid cell layer, intermediate interwoven neuroglial strands, and an inner layer of cells which lacked the characteristic appearance of ependyma. An unusual finding was a small, buried island of ependymal cells in the intermediate layer of the neuroglial tissue. Ultrastructural study of the cyst wall provides a better understanding of the pathogenesis of the Dandy-Walker syndrome.

    Notes: Summary In spite of several cases reported in the literature, the exact pathogenetic mechanism of neuropathic changes in porphyric neuropathy remains uncertain. Various authors have ascribed the neuropathologic findings to either a dying-back axonal degeneration or segmental demyelination. In recent years, the hypothesis of an axonal and myelinic disorder has received support by the demonstration of a combined and simultaneous involvement of both these structures. Such different opinions are also a consequence of the reduced number of detailed bioptic observations in the different forms of acute porphyria not only during acute phases but also between attacks. In this paper we report the results of light- and electronmicroscopic examination of two sural nerve biopsies from subjects with hereditary coproporphyria. The first was performed 6 months after an acute attack, the second specimen was obtained from a patient without acute attacks, who had clinical and electrophysiologic signs of a chronic progressive neuropathy. In both cases a dying-back axonal degeneration is considered the primary change. The pathogenetic mechanism of peripheral nerve lesions in porphyric neuropathy will be discussed finally.

    Notes: Summary Anterior tibial muscle biopsies of the hemiplegic side of 16 patients with a cerebrovascular accident in the middle cerebral artery region were analyzed qualitatively and quantitatively by enzyme histochemistry and electron microscopy. Patients grouped according to the time lapsed as from the occurrence of the accident (1–17 months) demonstrated a progressive decrease in the fiber diameter and changes in fiber type distribution with predominant type II atrophy and type I predominance. Nuclear internalization, myopathic alterations, and perifascicular fatty infiltrations were observed constantly. In the affected fibers the ultrastructural findings were myofibrillar alterations with the formation of rods and cytoplasmic bodies. There was accumulation of lipofuscin, glycogen, and lipid droplets. Microvascular changes were observed frequently. Biopsies from the asymptomatic legs were either normal or showed age-related muscle alterations. Correlation was noted between the clinical and functional status of the patients and the morphological aspects seen in muscle biopsies.

    Notes: Summary Adult Wistar rats were exposed to carbon disulphide (CS2) vapour at a concentration of 2.4 mg/l of air for 5 days a week (6h a day), and the ultrastructure of peripheral nerves, neuromuscular junctions and muscles was investigated after 6 months of exposure to CS2. Numerous giant axons, i.e. paranodal or internodal swellings, were seen in the peripheral nerves. At the swollen paranodes, the myelin sheath was thinned, in other regions large intramyelinic vacuoles indicative of more dramatic demyelination were observed at axonal enlargements. Axonal enlargements consisted essentially of whorls of tightly packed neurofilaments. A number of nerve fibres underwent complete degeneration, but at the same time there was evidence of nerve regeneration. Nerve terminals were affected in a similar way following CS2 exposure. At neuromuscular junctions, filamentous swellings of nerve terminals preceded their degeneration and eventual denudation of synaptic gutters. As a rule, the postsynaptic part of neuromuscular junctions remained unimpaired by CS2 treatment. Muscles were affected by both atrophy and degeneration. Clusters of dense and lamellar bodies and numerous autophagosomes indicative of direct myotoxic effect of CS2 were frequently encountered in the investigated muscles. Some muscle fibres apparently underwent necrosis judging from the occurrence of myotubes characteristic of muscle degeneration and regeneration. The pathomorphology of CS2 neuropathy resembles that of other toxic neuropathies which presumably have a common origin in impaired energy metabolism.

    Notes: Summary The ultrastructure of peroxisomes in partially differentiated cells of the mouse preputial gland was investigated using serial thin sections and three-dimensional reconstruction as well as the alkaline diaminobenzidine technique for visualization of the peroxidatic activity of catalase. An analysis of serial sections indicates that the different types of intensely stained peroxisomal profiles, classified according to their shape, represent random planes through highly complex peroxisomes. These organelles exceed 4 μm in length and exhibit a focal heterogeneity with respect to their size, shape and enzyme distribution. The graphical three-dimensional reconstruction demonstrates that the most intricate peroxisomes are characterized by tortuous, elongate, and branched tubular segments of varying diameter equipped with enlarged terminal hollow-spherical structures which engulf areas of cytoplasm. A close spatial relationship is established between adjacent peroxisomes and peroxisomes and mitochondria, the latter two of which synchronously develop into highly complex structures. A close association is also observed between peroxisomes and the endoplasmic reticulum, whereby membrane continuities between the two compartments cannot be demonstrated. These observations are inconsistent with traditional concepts concerning peroxisomal shape and size, the number per cell, as well as their biogenesis from the endoplasmic reticulum. The functional significance of individual highly complex peroxisomes and their assemblage forming an extensive netlike membraneous system throughout the cell is discussed with respect to intracellular energy transport and trans-membrane electron exchange.

    Notes: Summary Ultrastructural studies were undertaken to investigate the temporal relationship between loss of the zona pellucida around the blastocyst and the appearance of decidual changes in the endometrial stroma during normal implantation in rats. Blastocyst-free and blastocyst-containing sites of pregnant uterine horns were studied and compared with control sites from contralateral salpingectomized horns and horns of pseudopregnant animals from 24.00 h on Day 4 and onwards. There were no membrane contacts between the blastocyst and the uterine epithelium at 10.00 h on Day 5 and earlier because of an intervening zona pellucida. From 14.00 h onwards, however, such contacts were present and at 18.00 h, the zona pellucida had disappeared and the blastocyst had attached onto the uterine epithelium. The stromal cells of pregnant and control horns were indistinguishable from each other at 24.00 h on Day 4, but from 06.00 h on Day 5 onwards specific changes were noted in the stromal cell nucleoli of the pregnant horns. The results therefore suggest that the first morphological sign of decidualization occurs about 12 h before the Pontamine Blue reaction and is initiated by the blastocyst early on Day 5 while it is still encased by the zona pellucida.

    Notes: Summary During the embryonic development of the intestine, programmed deletion of epithelial cells plays a vital role in the formation of secondary lumina and of villi. Electron microscopy shows that this deletion is effected by apoptosis, a distinctive mode of cellular death recently recognised as being implicated in normal tissue involution in the adult, as well as during intrauterine development. The process involves cellular condensation and budding to form membrane-bounded apoptotic bodies containing well-preserved organelles. These are then either engulfed by neighbouring principal cells or sloughed off into the intestinal lumen. Engulfed apoptotic bodies that show various degrees of lysosomal degradation have previously been reforred to as “meconium corpuscles”.

    Notes: Summary Based on a fixed number of EM photomicrographs a semiautomatic image analysis is made of normal gastrocnemius muscle fibers to obtain reference values for comparison with pathologic data. Z disc, mitochondria, tubular system, and sarcoplasmic reticulum are measured. It is stated that no definite fiber type differentiation is possible based on these quantitative data. However, measurements of Z disc and mitochondria are suggestive of such a differentiation. On the other hand, all data reach a Gaussian distribution on a logarithmic scale after a 5% correction factor is introduced.

    Notes: Summary Considering the possibility of a paracellular route for edema resolution we studied the microvasculature of the subependymal and subcortical white matter in hydrocephalic rats. Normal adult rats were used as controls. After injection of kaolin suspension into the cisterna magna, the animals were killed at intervals of 1, 2, 4, and 8 weeks. In hydrocephalic rats at 1 week after kaolin injection, widening of the interendothelical cleft between the tight junction (dehiscence) was seen in 27 of 76 (35%) vessels. At 2 weeks after kaolin injection, the number of the dehiscences had increased (39/7:56%) and some were enlarged, forming interendothelial blisters. At 4 weeks in hydrocephalic rats, both dehiscences and blisters were still prominent (45/73∶63%) and at 8 weeks the dehiscences were still prominent, but the number of the blisters had decreased (25/81∶31%). The blisters and dehiscences were most pronounced in the corpus callosum and occipital regions. Following i.v. injection of horseradish peroxidase, the interendothelial dehiscences and blisters were completely devoid of the marker substance. These findings indicate that in obstructive hydrocephalus the tight junctions may constitute part of a paracellular pathway for the resorption of interstitial edema fluid.

    Notes: Summary Photochemotherapy (PUVA)-induced freckles were found in 25 patients (41%) who had received more than 1,000 J/cm2 of PUVA. The patients had been treated with PUVA for more than 2 years, with more than 150 exposures before PUVA lentigines appeared on the thighs, the upper arm, the mid-lower arm, the waist, and the buttocks. The histopathology of these freckles was analyzed by light and electron microscopy. Light microscopy showed an increased amount of pigment and melanophages and increased numbers and size of melanocytes. The keratinocytes often displayed atypical features such as enlarged nuclei, giant size, or fibrillar degeneration. Homogenization of the papillary dermis was observed in 11 patients. The activation of melanocytes was confirmed electron microscopically, and pathological features such as large amounts of lipid droplets and lysosome-melanosome complexes within the melanocytes were seen. The Langerhans cells were mostly normal, whereas the keratinocytes showed cytolytic changes, fibrillar degeneration, and vacuolization. A close follow-up of patients with prolonged PUVA treatment is recommended.

    Notes: Summary To understand contact hypersensitivity, it is important to know the kinetics of Langerhans cells (LC) and related cells in the lymph node (LN), as well as in the skin. For this purpose, we tried experimentally to induce increased numbers of LCs, Birbeck granule-like structure (BgS)-containing cells, and interdigitating reticulum cells (IDC) in DNCB-sensitive mice and studied them by means of electron microscopy with the following results: (1) cytologically, LC, BgS-containing cells and IDC were closely related; (2) BgS seemed to arise from rough-surfaced endoplasmic reticulum (r-ER), and BgS-containing cells were midway in nature between LC and IDC from the morphological view point. From these findings, it appears that IDC, BgS-containing cells, and LCs were simultaneously involved in the contact hypersensitivity reactions of LNs.

    Notes: Summary Ten autosomal recessive/sporadic cases of hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy type I (HMSN I), nine of which originated from the northern part of Sweden, were included in the study. Parents were free from neurologic symptoms. Motor and sensory conduction velocity was normal when recorded, i.e., in 19 and 17 parents, respectively. Sural nerve biopsies from the ten cases revealed a varying degree of onion bulb formation. In eight of the cases the onion bulbs consisted of abundant basement membranes, whereas the Schwann cells were few and sometimes lacking. There were in some cases considerable differences between separate fascicles as to the loss of myelinated nerve fibers. In the six biopsies in which teasing was performed signs of present and previous demyelination were noticed. Numerous internodal segments were abnormally thin with reference to their length. In many such segments there were marked local thickenings of the nerve fiber. In cross sections the probable counterparts to these thickenings were nerve fibers with unduly thick myelin sheaths and complex folding of the myelin. Ultrastructural axonal changes were seen in the majority of the cases. The pathogenetic and diagnostic implications of the present findings are discussed.

    Notes: Summary A significant reduction in the myelinated nerve fiber population was observed during quantitative electron-microscopic examination of peripheral nerves in chronic alloxan diabetic rats. Dystrophic axonal abnormalities and regenerating fibers were more numerous in diabetics than age-matched controls. Schwann cells showed reactive changes including prominent pi granules of Reich and intracytoplasmic filament accumulation. Enumeration of these alterations, however, revealed no singificant difference from controls. Endoneurial macrophages in diabetic rats were also filled with lamellar intracytoplasmic inclusions characteristic of a chronic neuropathy. Quantitation of pathologic lesions in teased nerve fibers confirmed the preponderance of axonal over demyelinative disease and showed demyelination to be segmental. Microangiopathy was noted throughout the vasa nervorum of diabetic rats, and quantitative electron microscopy showed endothelial proliferation with doubling of the number of endothelial cells and proportional capillary mural thickening. Swollen, reactive endothelial cells appeared to effece the vascular lumen and may impair capillary perfusion. These microcirculatory changes, in the presence of biochemical and rheologic disturbances may contribute to tissue hypoxia and underly the loss of axons in experimental diabetic neuropathy.

    Notes: Abstract Cyanobacterin is a secondary metabolite produced by the cyanobacterium, Scytonema hofmanni. Highly purified cyanobacterin was found to inhibit the growth of many cyanobacteria at a minimum effective dose of 2 μg/ml (4.6 μM). The antibiotic had no effect on eubacteria including the photosynthetic Rhodospirillum rubrum. The site of action of cyanobacterin was further investigated in the unicellular cyanobacterium, Synechococcus sp. Electron micrographs of antibiotic-treated Synechococcus cells indicated that cyanobacterin affects thylakoid membrane structure. The antibiotic also inhibited light-dependent oxygen evolution in Synechococcus cells and in spheroplasts. These data support our conclusion that cyanobacterin specifically inhibits photosynthetic electron transport. This activity is similar to herbicides such as 3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-1,1-dimethyl urea (DCMU). The anhydro analog of cyanobacterin had no biological activity.

    Notes: Abstract Electron microscopy of negatively stained isolated restriction enzyme EcoRI revealed particle projections with triangular or square outlines, indicating that the enzyme, in its tetrameric state, is tetrahedron-like. The two dimers making up the tetramer appear to be arranged in two planes orthogonal to each other. Complexes formed by EcoRI with the plasmids pBR322 or pGW10 were investigated by electron microscopic spreading techniques. In the presence of Mg2+, EcoRI was bound to the DNA molecules to form pearl necklace-like aggregates. The number of bound EcoRI particles was much higher as the sum of EcoRI-and 5′..AATT..3′ sites (with exceptions, the 5′..AATT..3′ sites may function as one type of EcoRI* sites) along the DNAs, indicating unspecific binding. In the absence of Mg2+, EcoRI was bound to the DNA only at the recognition site for EcoRI and the sites where the tetranucleotide sequence 5′..AATT..3′ was present. A direct correlation of the local concentrations of the bases A and T within the flanking sequences of the binding sites with the frequency of EcoRI to the DNA was observed. Dimers and tetramers of the enzyme was found to bind to the DNA. Tetramers occasionally exhibited two binding sites for DNA as indicated by the observation of DNA loops originating at the sites of bound tetrameric EcoRI particles.

This activity was not found in benign cells of the same tumor, e.g., in components of the connective tissue underlying the glandular epithelium, or in cells beyond the margin of the same tumor. Neither benign nor maligant cells of colorectal tumors, nor those in malignant melanoma, had any phospholipase activity that could be demonstrated by the method.

    Notes: Summary A patient with prolymphocytic leukemia is described. The peripheral blood and bone-marrow cells contained nuclear pockets, bridges, and appendices, as well as cytoplasmic inclusions that were not membrane bound or connected with the endoplasmic reticulum. X-ray microanalysis of the cells showed them to contain large amounts of phosphorus, sulfur, chlorine, and calcium, as well as a smaller amount of sodium and magnesium in comparison with control lymphocytes. When compared with lymphocytes of a patient with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), the patient's cells showed higher amounts of magnesium, sulfur, and chlorine, while the sodium content was decreased. The usefulness of electron microscopy and X-ray microanalysis in the diagnosis of this type of leukemia is discussed.

    Notes: Summary A study of ellipsoids (EL) in the human spleen was done on 25 surgically resected specimens in order to assess the number of EL, their structure, the nature of the cuff cells and the problem of lymphocyte traffic through their wall. The results show that an average spleen of 200 g contains 1.6 × 107 EL. They are localized in a constant segment of the vascular tree, just at the transition of the penicillary arterioles into capillaries and they consist of a capillary (not an arteriole) surrounded by a cuff of cells. These cells are neither endothelial nor smooth muscle cells, display lysosomal activity and are considered as fixed specialized pericapillary cells capable of cytoplasmic expansion. Since their number is inconstant in different individuals and in different species they are considered to be dynamic histological structures. Because of the constant presence of lymphocytes in their walls we consider the EL to be a transit system for lymphocytes and the splenic equivalent of the high endothelial venules in the lymph nodes.

    Notes: Summary Collagen types I and III were examined immunohistochemically in 32 cases of gastric carcinoma classified as poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma with scirrhous stroma, well differentiated adenocarcinoma with intermediate stroma, or poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma with medullary stroma. In the stroma of scirrhous carcinoma, types I and III collagens were distributed abundantly in fibrillar or granular patterns with little difference in the intensity of staining. In well differentiated adenocarcinoma, type I collagen was diffusely distributed in the stroma with type III collagen distributed sparsely. In poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma with medullary stroma, the two types of collagen were only found around capillaries, constituting the tumor interstitium. Electron microscopic examination of scirrhous carcinoma showed tumor cells partially covered with fibroblasts, and discontinuous basal lamina, collagen fibers and microfibrils present between tumor cells and fibroblasts. In well differentiated carcinoma, tumor cells were surrounded by fibroblasts, and well developed basal lamina was observed beneath the tumor cells. In poorly differentiated carcinoma with medullary stroma, the stroma consisted of capillaries and very few fibroblasts with discontinuous basal lamina occasionally being present between tumor cells and fibroblasts.

    Notes: Summary The structure of guppy (Poecilia reticulata) spermatogonia and spermatocytes has been studied using electron microscopy. The spermatogonia, situated at the apex of the seminiferous tubule, are almost all surrounded by a network of Sertoli cells; they have very diffuse chromatin and one or two large nucleoli. The cytoplasm contains relatively few organelles, although annulate lamellae are found. The mitochondria have few cristae and are concentrated at one pole of the cell; they are sometimes found with intermitochondrial cement. These spermatogonia are separated from each other, having no intercellular bridges or inclusion in Sertoli cells, and are relatively undifferentiated; they correspond to stem cells. The spermatogonia beneath the apex are organized into cysts. First-generation spermatogonia are more dense and heterogeneous, their nuclei becoming smaller and their chromatin becoming denser during successive generations. In spermatocytes, the synaptinemal complex exists as a modified form until metaphase. The concentration of organelles in the cytoplasm increases and the organelles become more diversified as spermatogenesis progresses. Many cytoplasmic bridges are observed (several per cell), indicating that the cells remain in contact after several divisions. These changes in germ cell structure have been related to some of the characteristic features of spermatogenesis in guppy, e.g. the large number of spermatogonial generations and the complexity of spermiogenesis.

    Notes: Summary The ultrastructure of hepatic peroxisomes was investigated in Ichthyophis glutinosus (Amphibia: Gymnophiona), employing perfusion fixation and the diaminobenzidine (DAB) technique for the visualization of catalase. The majority of peroxisomes is circular or rod-shaped, although elongated particles occasionally occur. They contain a finely granular matrix, lightly stained after the DAB procedure. Their mean diameter is approximately 0.25 μm. Serial sections reveal that the circular and rod-shaped peroxisomal profiles are cross and oblique sections of highly tortuous, tubular organelles exceeding 2 μm in length. In addition to tubular profiles, elongated, rectangular particles, as well as straight dumbbell-shaped organelles with distinct marginal plates are observed. They range from 900 to 1650 nm in length (mean = 1200 nm). In the flattened, thin central portion of the dumbbell-shaped particle, the peroxisomal membranes form a cisterna enclosing one or two uniformly thick marginal plates, which display a definite substructure with a periodicity of 10 nm. These findings indicate that peroxisomes in the liver of Ichthyophis exhibit a complex organization. It is suggested that the organelles undergo a specific differentiation process, morphologically characterized by the formation of enlarged segments of unusual shape.

    Notes: Summary Isolated ovaries from untreated, sexually mature rabbits were introduced into an in vitro perfusion system and perfused with a chemically defined medium containing albumin. The ovaries were perfused for up to 15 h (mean 11.5 h) and then processed for morphological investigation. Both at the light- and electron-microscopical levels, most of the ovaries exhibited a normal structure comparable with ovaries in situ. In two cases, however, marked accumulations of bacteria were found, although not inside the follicles. Since ovulation in the rabbit normally occurs between 9.5–13 h after mating or human chorionic gonadotrophin treatment, this model seems adequate for studies of ovulation in vitro. It is, however, important to study the ovaries microscopically after the perfusion to detect artifacts, e.g., bacterial infection, that may have influence on the process of ovulation.

    Notes: Summary Spinal cord neurons from 9-day chick embryos were maintained in culture for up to 35 days and then fixed in 4% cacodylate-buffered glutaraldehyde containing 2% tannic acid. After about 15 days in culture a small percentage of the synaptic specializations present were characterized by striking electron-dense striations averaging 15 nm in width, oriented perpendicular to the postsynaptic membrane. These structures increased in frequency with time in culture (to a maximum of about 10% of all synapses in the oldest cultures); they were asymmetrical, protruding approximately 8 nm into the synaptic cleft, and more deeply (approximately 15–18 nm), into the postsynaptic cytoplasm. On the basis of earlier work by Sealock (1980) they are interpreted as concentrations of acetylcholine receptors. Similar membrane differentiations were also seen associated with active-zone areas of a few presynaptic membranes, and the possibility that these represent presynaptic acetylcholine receptors is discussed. Additional observations reported are (1) the presence of striations resembling those seen at the postsynaptic membrane in the membranes of some postsynaptic vesicles, and (2) filamentous links between the striations and cytoskeletal elements of the postsynaptic cell.

    Notes: Summary The taste buds on the barbels in three species of teleosts (Cyprinus carpio, Misgurnus anguillicaudatus, Parasilurus asotus) were studied by means of fluorescence and electron microscopy. Intensely yellow-fluorescent cells, which are disk-shaped and located exclusively in a basal position, are observed in the barbel-buds of all fishes examined. The basal cells contain a large number of small clear vesicles approximately 40–60 nm in diameter, which show a tendency to aggregate in the cytoplasm facing the junction of the nerve terminals; chemically transmitting synapses are seen in the latter region. It is suggested from the present observations that the basal cells in the barbel-bud may originate from Schwann cells and have a dual function both as mechanoreceptors and paracrine elements. Since the administration of 5,6-DHT results in an appearance of small dense vesicles among the small clear vesicles, the possibility exists that the basal cell may be capable of taking up monoamines and storing them in the small clear vesicles.

    Notes: Summary In an attempt to identify a cellular Ca2+-pool, from which calcium is released when secretagogues are applied, tissue fragments of the rat exocrine pancreas were incubated and fixed with glutaraldehyde in the presence of calcium. By means of this procedure electron-dense deposits were found on plasma membranes. X-ray microanalysis showed that these deposits contain calcium. Stimulation of tissue fragments with the use of the secretagogues carbachol or cholecystokinin reduced the number of deposits by about 80%. When the antagonist atropine was applied after carbachol stimulation, deposits reappeared on cell membranes, which then disappeared again after a second stimulation with cholecystokinin. In the presence of procaine, carbachol was inhibited and only slightly reduced the Ca2+-deposits on the plasma membranes. These results suggest that a calcium pool, from which calcium is released to induce enzyme secretion on stimulation, is located in the cell membrane

    Notes: Summary Fathead minnows, Pimephales promelas, were exposed for 129 days to Lake Superior water acidified with sulfuric acid by means of a flow-through toxicant injection system. The effects of chronic acid stress (pH 6.5, 6.0, 5.5, 5.0) on gill histology were examined. Most of the histological effects were seen at pH 5.5 and 5.0 and were confined primarily to changes in numbers, distribution, and morphology of chloride cells. At low pH levels there tend to be more chloride cells in the gill epithelium and an increased percentage of these cells in the secondary lamellae. In contrast to normal chloride cells, chloride cells from fish exposed to low pH frequently had apical pits while some had bulbous apical evaginations. The occurrence of structural changes in chloride cells during exposure to acid water suggests that chloride cells may be involved in acclimation to acid stress.

    Notes: Summary The size, cellular location, and identity of surface-associated components were determined for lipid droplets in lactating cells. Transmission electron-microscopic measurements were made involving 3801 droplets in approximately 211 cells from three rats and 1197 droplets in 66 cells from a mouse. For the purposes of droplet evaluation, cells were divided into seven locations ranging from basal to secreting positions. Droplets were also categorized with respect to contact with other droplets, basolateral plasma membrane, mitochondria, Golgi apparatus, secretory vesicles, and endoplasmic reticulum-cytoplasm (ERC). Data on droplet size showed that droplet growth occurs mainly in the secretory position, confirming previously published findings. Lipid droplets from mouse tissue, although somewhat smaller in size showed similar growth trends to those of the rat. Data on numbers of droplet contacts and percentages of droplet circumferences involved in associations with other cell components showed that the dominant interaction of lipid droplets was with the ERC. However, intimate association of droplets with mitochondria was noted in all cellular locations. In addition, nursed animals exhibited a greater proportion of droplet surface association with secretory vesicles and less in contact with mitochondria in comparison to those not nursed. The significance of these relationships to milk synthesis and secretion is discussed.

    Notes: Summary The nucleoli of dictyate-stage growing oocytes in rat ovaries were examined both with routine electron microscopy and electron microscopy after silver nitrate and ammoniacal silver nitrate (Ag-AS) staining. The nucleoli of the unilaminar follicular oocytes consist of twisted strands of dense fibrillar components, aggregates of granular components, and small fibrillar centers. After Ag-AS staining, silver grains are numerous on the dense fibrillar strands, fewer on the fibrillar centers, and very sporadic on the granular aggregates. The same stainability of three nucleolar components with the Ag-AS method was also confirmed in the nucleoli segregated by actinomycin D. During the transition of growing oocytes from bilaminar to plurilaminar follicle stage, the nucleolar dense fibrillar strands gradually conglomerate and are transformed into large and compact spherules. The stainability of dense fibrillar components with the Ag-AS method was lost along with this nucleolar transformation. These results may provide some new clues on the functional significance of AgAS-positive proteins in the nucleoli.

    Notes: Summary Stereology and semi-automatic image analysis were used with the aim of comparing the structure of parathyroid glands from untreated adult Mongolian gerbils fixed by immersion with those fixed by perfusion. Subclassification of the chief cells based upon the staining affinity or electron density of the cytoplasm was readily performed only in glands fixed by immersion, and so-called atrophic cells were observed only in these glands. The atrophic cells were often surrounded by “light” chief cells. In glands fixed by perfusion, “light” chief cells were only rarely encountered. A significant difference between glands fixed by immersion and those fixed by perfusion was found only with regard to the form of cells and nuclei, those fixed by perfusion being more spherical. When comparing individual cells within glands fixed by immersion, “light” chief cells were more spherical and had a significantly larger nuclear and cellular size, and a lower mitochondrial volume density than the “intermediate”/“dark” chief cells. Otherwise there were no significant differences in any of the parameters investigated. These data indicate that occurrence of socalled “light” chief cells and atrophic cells is a result of improper fixation. The results of this study do not favour the concept of a functional cycle with a simultaneous occurrence of active and inactive cells within parathyroid glands.

    Notes: Summary Electron-microscopic studies of lymphoid tissues from bovine fetuses and from calves disclosed a non-lymphoid cell type in the thymus-dependent zones of secondary lymphoid tissues and in the thymus that is distinguishable from reticulum cells, epithelial and endothelial cells, and macrophages. Based on morphological and topographical criteria, the cell is identified as the interdigitating cell. In addition, studies of the tissues of normal and virus-challenged fetuses, and of conventionally reared calves, indicated that the interdigitating cells originate from monocytoid cells, which undergo differentiation in the thymus-dependent zones during an immune response.

    Notes: Summary Gap junctions exist in the septa between the segments of the lateral giant axons in the ventral nerve cord of the crayfish Procambarus. A large increase in the resistance (uncoupling) of these gap junctions was brought about by mechanical injury to the axonal segments. Both thin sections and freeze-fracture preparations were used to monitor the morphological changes which occurred up to 45 min after injury. There was no apparent change in the organization (a loose polygonal array) of the intramembrane particles which make up the junctional complex up to 45 min after injury. In some instances, however, the intramembrane particles appeared to have moved away from the junctional area. Other junctional regions were internalized and appeared similar to what have been called annular gap junctions. Also at this time (20–25 min after injury), a dense cytoplasmic plug formed in uninjured axon near the junctional region. It is concluded that the gap junctions that exhibit a loose polygonal organization of the intramembrane particles may be either in a state of low resistance (coupled) or a state of high resistance (uncoupled).

    Notes: Summary Ovulation was induced in rabbits by intravenous administration of human chorionic gonadotrophin (HCG), and 4–5 h later the ovaries were isolated and introduced into an in-vitro perfusion system containing synthetic medium with albumin. Rupture of follicles occurred in vitro within the physiological time range (mean 11.3 h after injection of HCG), although with a reduced frequency. Preovulatory and ruptured follicles were studied in detail by light and electron microscopy. In the granulosa layer of ruptured or preovulatory follicles cytoplasmic blebbing activity, disappearance of CallExner bodies and differentiation toward luteinized cells were found. Perhaps the most important sign of normal preovulatory development in vitro was that the basement membrane surrounding the granulosa layer was penetrated by projections of granulosa cells. In the absence of this penetration phenomenon the granulosa layer prolapsed out of the follicle. Immediately before rupture, follicles showed marked degeneration, restricted to the outer layers of the apical wall, which is compatible with the hypothesis that degradative enzymes are released close to the surface of preovulatory follicles. Although the majority of follicles that ovulated under in-vitro conditions showed the same kind of morphological alterations as can be seen in vivo, occasional atypical ruptures occurred without any overt signs during perfusion. Also technical manipulations of the perfusion system, e.g., nonphysiological increase of perfusion pressure, could force follicles to rupture. This illustrates the importance of careful morphological study of all ovaries perfused in vitro before conclusions are drawn.

    Notes: Summary In the pars distalis of the hypophysis of adult Rana temporaria, three types of nerve-fiber profiles were found at two distinct sites, in both lateral parts of the bordering regions of the anterior lobe with the intermediate lobe of the hypophysis. The first type of nerve-fiber profile consists of bundles of very fine axonal elements (diameter: 〈0.7 μm). The second type is formed by larger nerve fibers (diameter up to 4 μm) containing a few neurosecretory granules of approximately 100 nm. The third type of nervefiber profile resembles the second type but these nerve fibers make synaptoid contacts on at least two different types of glandular cells. The possible functional significance of these nerve fibers in the pars distalis is discussed. No nerve fibers were found (1) in the central part of the bordering region of the pars distalis with the intermediate lobe, (2) at the bordering region with the median eminence and (3) with the neurohypophysial stalk, and (4) in all other parts of the pars distalis.

    Notes: Summary Vascularization of the pig mesonephros was investigated in embryos 5–8 cm in length. Vascular injections with microfil were cleared and dissected; corrosion casts were studied under the scanning electron microscope (SEM). Perfusion-fixed tissue was used for SEM and transmission electron microscope (TEM) studies, including freeze-fracture specimens. The branches of one mesonephric artery carry up to 15 glomeruli. Several glomeruli occupy the same arterial branch, with very short afferent arterioles proper. The efferent vessels, frequently 2–5, leave the extensive vascular pole opposite the entering arteriole and split into peritubular capillaries radiating towards the superficial veins. These capillaries form vascular regions in the shape of flattened pyramids. Along its course, one nephron is supplied by vessels derived from 4–7 glomeruli. The nephrons have less vascular contact than in the definitive kidney. The ultrastructure of the single mesonephric vessels matches the metanephric counterparts. Epithelioid cells with renin granules are common in afferent arterioles, larger arteries, and efferent vessels. The lobulated glomeruli are up to 750 μm long and flattened, showing the usual features of podocytes, mesangial cells, and an attenuated endothelium with fenestrations between 50 and 250 μm. It partially retains its own basement membrane. There is no proximal mesangium.

    Notes: Summary The ultrastructure of Pacinian corpuscles of the cat located in the crural region and innervated by the interosseous nerve was studied 1 to 14 months after denervation. Both the Pacinian inner core and capsule remained well preserved one month after denervation. However, the denervated inner cores underwent progressive atrophy and wasting, which resulted in a gradual reduction of the amount of inner-core cells and lamellae, widening of interlamellar clefts, formation of empty spaces in the axial region and a considerable increase in the number of collagen fibrils. In spite of the wasting, the inner core still survived 14 months after denervation, but at least half of its volume became occupied by collagen fibrils which surrounded the remaining inner-core cells and lamellae. Collagen fibrils assembled in the denervated core were markedly thinner than those found in the capsule, as is also the case in normal Pacinian corpuscles. In the capsule, discrete focal degeneration, occasional pyknosis of the innermost capsular cells and macrophage infiltration were observed from the first month after nerve section onward, but the number of capsular layers remained within the normal range (30–40) up to 14 months after denervation.

    Notes: Summary Addition of certain heterocyclic nitrogen-carbon compounds to standard osmium tetroxide solutions used as secondary fixative resulted in an enhanced general membrane contrast in cells of the marine algaEmiliania huxleyi (Lohmann) Kamptner. Ultrastructural cell morphology and the contrast distribution were compared between cells treated according to a standard secondary fixation procedure and cells post-fixed when above mentioned heterocyclic compounds were introduced; in both cases some of the ultrathin sections were post-stained. Different compounds were tested: 1,2,4-triazole (TRA), 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole (A-TRA), 5-amino-tetrazole (A-TEA) and 2,4,6-tri-amino-1,3,5-triazine (melamine). The results were interpreted to indicate the possible bonding types arising from interaction of the heterocyclic compounds with osmium tetroxide and with membrane constituents. Interpretations were partly inspired by considerations from coordination chemistry. All above tests which did not include post-staining of thin sections could be performed at alkaline pH, and consequently calcified structures were preserved. The enhanced osmium accumulation at membranes was verified with X-ray microanalysis, which also showed that in the cases where membranes were visibly contrasted, localization of probable sites of intracellular non-crystalline calcium was facilitated.

    Notes: Summary There is an immense literature on biological and biochemical analyses of soils. Such analyses have revealed the enormous richness of species in soil and their vast range of metabolic potentials and ecological diversity. Accordingly, the approaches used to investigate the soil biota and its biochemistry usually have to be modified or adapted depending upon the purpose of the investigation. Studies of micro-organisms in the soil environment, are complicated because microbial cells are commonly attached to surfaces where they live side-by-side with other populations in consortia usually containing different morphological and physiological types. Such assemblages of organisms cannot be described quantitatively using cultural techniques, such as plate counts, which underestimate both cell numbers and viable biomass. The development of more powerful observational and staining techniques has improved our knowledge of the diverse morphological and biochemical composition of soil micro-communities. Such findings have been amplified at a grosser level by laboratory studies with multi-component systems (microcosms) to mimic field situations and to assess the range of biochemical potentials of microbial consortia. But despite notable advances in analytical methods we are still, with a few exceptions, unable to detect or identify those microorganisms which carry out specific biochemical transformations or determine whether particular cells are alive, dormant or dead at the time of observation. Considerable work has been done to define some of the fundamental ecological attributes of microbial assemblages in soil. Productive work on the metabolic activities of the soil microbiota, specially geochemical transformations of C, N, S and P, has been under way for more than a century. But only in more recent years have more sensitive and reproducible analytical methods become available to measure viable biomass in soil. This will enable some insight to be gained into the role that microbial biomass plays as a labile source and sink for plant nutrients.

    Notes: Summary The stability of pores and particles is essential for optimum growth of plants. Two categories of aggregates macro- (〉 250 μm) and micro- (〈250 μm) depend on organic matter for stability against disruptive forces caused by rapid wetting. Dispersion of clay particles from microaggregates is promoted by adsorption of complexing organic acids which increase the negative charge on clays. The acids are produced by plants, bacteria and fungi. However, the dispersibility of clay in microaggregates is offset by the binding action of polysaccharides, mainly mucilages produced by bacteria, but also by plant roots and fungal hyphae. The stability of microaggregates is also enhanced by multivalent cations which act as bridges between organic colloids and clays. Macroaggregates are enmeshed by plant roots, both living and decomposing, and are thus sensitive to management, and increase in number when grasses are grown and the soil is not disturbed. Lack of root growth,i.e. fallow, has the opposite effect. Various implications for management of soil structure are discussed.

    Notes: Various phosphorus-containing polyimides were prepared by the reaction of 1-[(dialkoxyphosphinyl)methyl]-2,4- and -2,6-diaminobenzenes (1) with a tetracarboxylic dianhydride like pyromellitic dianhydride (PMDA) and benzophenone tetracarboxylic dianhydride (BTDA). In addition, copolyimides that contained approximately 3% phosphorus were prepared by the reaction of 1 and m-phenylenediamine (MPD) with the aforementioned tetracarboxylic dianhydrides. Elemental analysis, inherent viscosity, infrared (IR) spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) studies were performed to characterize the polymers. Their thermal properties were compared with those of the corresponding common polyimides. It was shown that the molecular weight and thermal stability of the polymers were reduced as the concentration of the phosphorus moieties increased. The fire-resistance of the copolyimides was evaluated by determining their limiting oxygen index (LOI) value. Copolyimides that contained about 3% phosphorus showed an LOI value approximately 30% higher, than the value of the corresponding common polyimides. In addition, a model diamic acid and diimide was synthesized by the reaction of 1-[di(2-chloroethoxyphosphinyl)methyl]-2,4- and - 2,6-diaminobenzene (DCEPD) with phthalic anhydride and characterized by elemental analysis, IR, proton nuclear magnetic (1H-NMR) spectroscopy, DSC, and TGA. The pyrolysis behavior of the model compounds was investigated by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). A direct cleavage of the P—C bond and a possible rearrangement to diisocyanates occurred during their pyrolysis.

    Notes: Thin film coatings were prepared by polymerizing trifluoromethyl-substituted aromatic compounds in a glow discharge with low power levels and medium pressures. Smooth, continuous films which are adherent and insoluble in conventional solvents were produced. A significant amount of the fluorine content from the monomer was retained in the polymer. The trifluoromethyl group was not removed by the plasma conditions and appeared in the film as trifluoromethyl and difluoromethylene groups. The films were slightly less wettable than those of the unfluorinated films.

    Notes: Asymmetric polyamides from the reaction of either optically active trans-1,2-cyclopropanedicarboxylic acid (C3) or trans-1,2-cyclohexanedicarboxylic acid (C6) with 2,7-diazaspiro[4,4]nonane(DSN) were synthesized. The possible conformations of these polymers and their model compounds in 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol (TFE), water, methanesulfonic acid (MSA), and sulfuric acid were examined by circular dichroism (CD), NMR, viscosity, and dipole moment measurements. The racemic polyamides (±)C3·(±)DSN and (±)C6·(±)DSN exist in extended forms. No intrinsic viscosity changes were observed for these two polymers in TFE and MSA. Certain viscosity and spectral changes have been observed for the optically active polyamides, although no specific ordered conformations can be assigned. The optically active diacid units incorporated into the polymer give a conformation unique from the totally extended chain. CD studies seem to evidence some conformational differences among the polyamide derived from (+)C6 diacid and the optically active DSN. By changing the solvent from TFE to MSA a blue shift of the trough was observed for (+)C6·(±)DSN, a red shift for (+)C6·(-)DSN, and an inversion of the CD spectrum for (+)C6·(+)DSN polyamides. The results of the work with (+)C6·(-)DSN in dilute acid solution suggest that the rotation around the C-N bond is a relatively low-energy process. The spectral and intrinsic viscosity data are consistent with this suggestion. No drastic spectral changes have been observed for the C3·DSN polyamides by changing the solvent from TFE to MSA. The amide group in the C3·DSN polyamide and the corresponding model compound prefer a similar conformation with the carbonyl group bisecting the cyclopropane ring. The C3·DSN polyamide seems to exist in an extended form.

    Cationic grafting from carbon black. II. Polymerization of styrene initiated by CO+ClO-4 group on the surface of carbon black (1984)

    Notes: The cationic grafting of polystyrene initiated by carbon black containing the CO+ClO-4 group was investigated. The introduction of CO+ClO-4 groups onto a carbon black surface was achieved by the reaction of AgClO4 with carbon black that contained a COCI group. The latter was introduced by the reaction of carboxyl groups with SOCl2. It was found that polystyrene chains could be grown from CO+ClO-4 groups on the surface of carbon black. Moreover, polystyrene was effectively grafted from carbon black: the grafting ratio at 20°C increased to 58% as conversion increased. Furthermore, the grafting ratio and molecular weight of ungrafted polystyrene decreased with an increase in polymerization temperature. These results were explained by the fact that the increasing temperature of the polymerization caused an increase in the rate of chain transfer reaction of the growing polymer chain to the monomer. The carbon black obtained from the reaction produced a stable colloidal dispersion in a good solvent for polystyrene.

    Notes: Radical polymerization of several alkyl allyl oxalates, including methyl allyl oxalate (MAO), ethyl allyl oxalate, propyl allyl oxalate, butyl allyl oxalate, and octyl allyl oxalate, was conducted in the evolution of carbon dioxide at elevated temperatures, and was compared with the anomalous polymerization behavior of diallyl oxalate (DAO) discussed in our earlier articleA. Matsumoto, I. Tamura, M. Yamawaki, and M. Oiwa, J. Polym. Sci. Polym. Chem. Ed., 17, 1419 (1979).. The kinetic equations for the polymerization of alkyl allyl oxalate were derived following the kinetic treatment of the DAO polymerization by further consideration of the absence of cyclization of the growing polymer radical and the effective reinitiation by alkyl radical, and were then satisfactorily applied to the polymerization of MAO, as a representative alkyl allyl oxalate. The evolution of carbon dioxide in the polymerization of alkyl allyl oxalates was enhanced with the increase of bulkiness of the alkyl substituent, as a result of steric suppression of the propagation of the growing polymer radical.

    Notes: Plasma polymers synthesized by inductively coupled RF techniques have been investigated as a function of operating parameters for the isomeric perfluorinated diazines (pyrazine, pyrimidine, and pyridazine). A combination of ESCA and microanalytical studies shows that plasma polymers are produced by rearrangement mechanisms: the C/F and C/N stoichiometric ratios are similar to those of the starting monomers over a range of operating parameters. A comparison of rates of formation of plasma polymer films reveals distinctive differences between the isomeric diazines that suggest that equilibration of valence isomers occurs on a substantially slower time scale than for isomeric fluorinated benzenes5-9 which, in general, polymerize at essentially the same rates. In contrast to the remarkably low critical surface tension of plasma polymers based on perfluorobenzenes (ca. 20 dynes cm-2), the plasma polymer films from the perfluorinated diazines which are initially hydrophobic become hydrophilic in contact with water droplets. This is attributed to the hydrolytic instability of films associated with the labilizing influence of nitrogen on nucleophilic displacement of fluoride which is a feature of the chemistry of monomers.

    Notes: Studies were conducted on grafting of acrylamide (AM) and sodium-2-acrylamido-2-methylpropane sulfonate (NaAMPS) comonomers onto dextran utilizing Ce(IV) induced initiation. The effects of reaction temperature, the Ce(IV)/dextran ratio, and the AM/NaAMPS ratio on grafting yield were investigated. The graft copolymerization behavior can be explained by exchange of the AMPS anion with one of the ligands on the Ce(IV) initiator. Oxidative modification of the dextran substrate improved the yield of graft copolymer. The dextran-g-poly(acrylamido-co-sodium-2-acrylamido-2-methylpropane sulfonate) samples prepared by this method were characterized as to copolymer composition and molecular weight utilizing elemental analysis, dilute solution viscometry, and aqueous size exclusion chromatography. Relationships of molecular weight and charge density to kinematic viscosity and salt sensitivity are discussed.

    Notes: Photoinitiated cationic polymerization by photosensitization of diphenyliodonium and triphenylsulfonium salts is shown to proceed by two distinct electron transfer process: (1) direct electron transfer from excited-state photosensitizers and (2) indirect electron transfer from photogenerated radicals. The efficiency of the former process is attributed to the instability of the reduction products (from diphenyliodonium and triphenylsulfonium salts), which dissociate in competition with undergoing energy-wastage reverse electron transfer. Amplification of photons in the production of protons (or other reactive cations) is postulated to account for the high quantum yields observed in the latter process. Potential advantages of utilizing the indirect redox process in the design of UV curable hybrid systems, which contain functionality for both radical and cationic polymerization, are noted. The results also provide evidence against the importance of triplet states of the onium salts in photoinitiator activity.

    Notes: Racemic and optically active N-carboxyanhydrides (NCA)s of 2-methyl- and cis-6-methylpipecolic acid, when subjected to polymerization conditions in solution or in bulk whether with “weak” or “strong” base initiators, resisted polymerization under all conditions tried. Instead, the NCA of 2-methylpipecolic acid gave the corresponding cyclic dipeptide and the NCA of cis-6-methylpipecolic acid formed the cyclic dipeptide derived from trans-6-methylpipecolic acid. The mechanism of dimerization of these NCA's was investigated. Evidence was provided for the proposed mechanism in which the active moiety is not a carbamate ion but an amino group. Methyl 2-methylpipecolate underwent an intermolecular SN2-type reaction upon heating, yielding equimolar quantities of methyl N-methyl-2-methylpipecolate and 2-methylpipecolic acid.

    Notes: The effect of a range of 10 organic nitriles on the radiation-induced polymerization of styrene was studied. A dose rate of 4.4 rad s-1 was used. A rate of polymerization of styrene (1.744 mol L-1 of toluene solution) of 5.0 × 10-7 mol L-1 s-1 was found. With organic nitriles present (styrene:nitrile ratio of 1:0.28) the rate of polymerization increased. Rates in the range of 5.5 × 10-7 -5.2 × 10-6 mol L-1 s-1, depending on the nitrile present, were obtained. The polymers were partially characterized and evidence of involvement of each of the nitriles in the polymer chains was revealed. The increase in rate of polymerization has been attributed to the part played by nitrile radicals in the initiation of styrene polymerization. Radical yield values [as G(nitrile radical)] were derived from the relevant rate expressions. Values ranged from 2.7 to 49.5, depending on the particular nitrile. Corresponding values of G(nitrile radical) in the range of 5.1-129.4 were obtained by the manipulation of number-average molar mass data. Values of kpkt of approximately 2 × 10-5 L mol-1 s-1 were found. Trommsdorff types of effect are absent from these systems.

    Notes: The effect of parasubstituents on the radiation chemistry of poly(α-methylstyrene) (PMS) was compared for the fluoro (PFMS), chloro (PCMS), bromo (PBMS), isopropyl (PiPMS), and methoxy (PMeOM) derivatives. Radiolysis yields, ESR spectra, and GC—MS analysis of products were obtained. PMS and PFMS have similar low radiolysis yields, products, and product distributions. Only main-chain radicals which persist to 200° were observed. PCMS has increased values of Gs, Gx, and Gr. The product analysis results suggest that the presence of chlorine contributes to the primary process by dissociative electron capture and enhances the cleavage of α-methyl group. Irradiation of PBMS caused crosslinking and yielded few volatile products. PMeOMS and PiPMS gel readily by γ-irradiation and may be useful as negative radiation resists.

    Notes: Iron-ion-containing polymers were prepared by reacting atactic polyvinylpyridine with ferric chloride or ferric nitrate in methanol solution. Molar ratios of Fe3+ to 4-vinylpyridine (Fe:PVP) were 1:2, 1:6, and 1:20. Three kinds of iron center were characterized from 57Fe Mössbauer spectra recorded over a temperature range of 4.2-290 K. Infrared (IR) spectra of the samples were measured also. All samples contained amorphous hydrated ferric-oxide particles that exhibited superparamagnetic behavior at low temperatures. The size of the clusters (102-103 iron atoms per particle) was estimated from the average blocking temperatures TBav, which is sensitive to the Fe:PVP ratio. For FeCl3:PVP preparations with Fe:PVP of 1:2, 1:6, and 1:20 TBav was 37, 10, and 〈4 K, respectively. A small proportion (〈10%) of high-spin ferrous iron centers was found in most samples. A third type of signal attributable to oxygen-bridged ferric dimers was found in FeCl3-PVP preparations with Fe:PVP of 1:2 or 1:6 but not in Fe(No3)3-PVP samples. This species is probably [Cl3Fe—O—FeCl3]2-. Interactions between the polymer and the various iron centers were weak.

    Notes: ESCA and contact-angle (H2O and CH2I2) measurements are used to follow changes in the surface of poly(ethylene terephthalate) film photooxidized (254 nm radiation in O2) for varying times, followed by aging for as many as three weeks or washing with water. Photooxidation occurs uniformly throughout the outermost 50 Å of the film to give a surface stoichiometry that corresponds to C10O6.6. Oxidation produces mainly carboxyl (acid) and alcohol/phenol groups, carbonyls form after extensive treatment. Low molecular weight products formed by chain scission and oxidation are removed by washing and diffuse into the bulk when aged. Oxidized products in higher molecular weight chains are not removed by washing, but can diffuse into the polymer bulk or reorient because of their chain mobility; therefore they are directed toward the polymer bulk rather than the surface. Extended photooxidation produces a stable oxidized surface more resistant to aging changes. The results are compared with those obtained for poly(ethylene terephthalate) film oxidized in an electrical discharge.

    Notes: The absolute rate constants of propagation (kp) and of termination (kt) of N-acryloylpiperidine (NAPi) were determined by the rotating sector method in bulk; kp = 273 and kt = 1.79 × 107 L/mol s at 30°C. It was noted that kp for NAPi was 100 times smaller than that for N,N-dimethylacrylamide (DMAcAm). The absolute rate constants of cross-propagations for copolymerizations with common monomers were evaluated by combination of the kp value and the monomer reactivity ratios. Quantitative comparison of the rate constants with those of DMAcAm and poly(DMAcAm) radical shows that NAPi is as reactive as DMAcAm and the smaller kp value for NAPi is ascribable to much the lower reactivity of the poly(NAPi) radical. The large difference in reactivity of the polymer radicals is discussed in relation to the steric factor of the piperadino and the dimethylamino groups which seems to affect the capability of the carboxamide group to stabilize the polymer radical.

    Notes: Preirradiation grafting of N-vinylpyrrolidone (NVP) onto poly(tetrafluoroethylene) (PTFE) and poly(tetrafluoroethylene-hexafluoropropylene) (FEP) films was investigated. The influence of grafting parameters such as preirradiation dose, monomer concentration, and grafting temperature on the rate and grafting yield was studied. Different solvents were used for diluting the monomer and it was found that the aqueous monomer solution at a concentration of 80 wt% was suitable for this grafting system. However, the graft polymerization of NVP in benzene terminated within a short time without significant grafting yield. The dependence of the grafting rate on preirradiation dose and monomer concentration was 1.2 and 1.07 order, respectively, for grafting onto PTFE films and 1.1 and 1.2 order, respectively, for grafting onto FEP films. Arrhenius plots for grafting onto PTFE films showed a breaking point at ca. 35°C and the overall activation energies were calculated as 23.6 and 9.0 Kcal/mol below and above 35°C, respectively. For grafting onto FEP films, however, no break was observed in the Arrhenius plots; the overall activation energy was 11.9 Kcal/mol. The swelling behavior and electric resistance of the grafted materials were investigated.

    Notes: Several polythioesters by interfacial polycondensation of 1,4-di(mercaptomethyl)-2,3,5,6-tetramethylbenzene with oxalyl, succinyl, adipoyl, suberoyl, and sebacoyl chlorides were obtained. To determine the optimal conditions for interfacial polycondensation, the influence of the following factors on yield and value of reduced viscosity were studied: type of organic phase, concentration of hydrogen chloride acceptor, the quantitative ratio of aqueous to organic phase, molar ratio of reagents; temperature of reaction, rate of acid chloride addition, and contribution of catalyst. Thorough studies were carried out only for polycondensation of the dithiol with adipoyl and sebacoyl chlorides. The structure of all polythioesters obtained under the model conditions was determined by elementary analysis and infrared spectra. Initial decomposition temperature, mass loss in percentage at the same temperature, maximum rate of decomposition, and mass loss percentage at 100-400°C were defined by thermogravimetric analyses. Chemical resistance of the polythioesters was determined by treatment with some organic solvents, mineral acids (concentrated and 10%), and sodium hydroxide (10 and 50%). Some mechanical and electrical properties of the polythioesters obtained from dithiol and adipoyl and sebacoyl chlorides were determined. The molecular weight was not measured because of the low solubility of the polythioesters.

    Notes: The anionic polymerization of norbornene trisulfide initiated with sodium thiophenoxide (sodium cation solvated with dibenzo-18-crown-6 ether) was studied. Polymers with high molecular weights were obtained (Mn up to 105, osmometrically). Molecular weights calculated for living polymerization conditions (i.e., one molecule of initiator yields one macromolecule) agree well with Mn measured by osmometry. 1H-NMR, 13C-{1H}-NMR, and Raman spectra of the polymer are given. Thermodynamics of polymerization in toluene solvent is described. Enthalpy ΔHss = -(1.39 ± 0.17) kcal mol-1 and entropy ΔSss = -(7.52 ± 0.55) cal mol-1 deg-1 coefficients of polymerization were evaluated from the temperature dependence of the equilibrium monomer concentration determined dilatometrically.

The thermal stabilities of the polymer were evaluated in nitrogen and in air by thermogravimetric analysis. This polymer was stable to 345°C and had char yields of 78% at 800°C in nitrogen and of 71% at 700°C in air. The structures of cyclotriphosphazene precursors and the polymer were characterized using Fourier-transform infrared and proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy.

    Notes: The rate of reaction of alkyl halides with aqueous sodium acetate or cyanide catalyzed by phosphonium salts supported on insoluble polystyrene resins, and rates of ion-exchange of the chloride ion in the catalysts against the acetate ion, were studied as a function of catalyst particle size, the percentage of ring substitution, the morphology of polymer support, and distance between active site and polymer backbone. Rates of 1-bromooctane or benzyl chloride with macroporous, 7-25% ring-substituted catalysts increased with increasing ring substitution. Rates with macroporous catalysts increased as a heptamethylene spacer was introduced between the active site and the polymer backbone. Rates of ion-exchange with macroporous catalysts were facilitated with increasing ring substitution or by the introduction of the spacer chain. A relation between the catalytic activity of macroporous or microporous catalysts and ion-exchange rates under triphase conditions was discussed.

    Notes: Polymerization of the cyclic amide of PIII is described for the first time. The N,N-diethylamine-1,3,2-dioxaphosphorinan was shown to give living reversible polymerization with anionic initiators. Lithium and sodium derivatives were found to be inactive. 1H-, 13C-, and 31P-NMR indicated that the polymer strictly reflects the monomer structure and is formed without any isomerization, the polymer chain being $\rlap{--} ({\rm OP}\left( {{\rm NR}_{\rm 2} } \right){\rm O(CH}_{\rm 2} \rlap{--} )_3 )_n $. Initiation involves attack of the anion on the P atom. From the dependence of the equilibrium monomer concentration on temeprature ΔH1s = 1.5 ± 0.2 kcal·mol-1 and ΔS1s = 4.6 ± 0.6 cal·mol-1·°K-1.

    Interaction of α-poly-L-lysine and ε-poly-L-lysine with methyl orange and its homologs in aqueous solution: Results from dialysis and spectroscopic measurements (1984)

    Notes: The interaction of α-poly-L-lysine and ε-poly-L-lysine with methyl and ethyl orange was studied by equilibrium dialysis and spectroscopic methods. The results of the dialysis measurements indicated that the extent of binding by ε-polypeptide is substantially higher than that by α-polypeptide, despite the much greater molecular weight of the latter. This difference in binding affinity was interpreted in terms of the increased conformational adaptability of ε-polypeptide because of its highly flexible structure. Furthermore, ε-polypeptide exhibited strong cooperative binding. In addition, the effect of the successive addition of α- and ε-polypeptides on the absorption spectra of methyl and ethyl orange was investigated. The addition of α-polypeptide with a molecular weight of 400,000 produced a new absorption peak at a shorter wavelength, due to the stacked dye molecules on the polypeptide chain, whereas that of ε-polypeptide did not. From the results of spectroscopic measurements a possible mode of interaction between these two polypeptides and the small molecule is discussed.

    Notes: Grafted PMMA was isolated by the acid hydrolysis method. Weight-average and number-average molecular weights were determined by gel permeation chromatography. The number-average molecular weight of the grafted chains was about 475,000 for amylopectin and 403,000 for amylose. The number of grafted chains (mmol) ranged from 2.4 × 10-3 to 4.6 × 10-3 for amylopectin graft copolymers and from 2.9 × 10-3 to 6.8 × 10-3 for those of amylose. These results were related to others obtained from ceric ion consumption studies. The values suggest that amylopectin, because of its complex structure, favors a higher consumption of ceric ion in homopolymerization reactions and inhibits the initiation reactions of the copolymerization.

    Notes: The progressive dissolution of carboxylated latex particles with increasing pH was utilized to investigate the internal structure of core-shell latex particles, in comparison with that of copolymeric latex particles formed from the same monomers. The results indicated that in those latex particles which are formed when ethyl acrylate (EA) -methacrylic acid (MAA) or methyl acrylate (MA) -MAA mixture is polymerized in the presence of poly(MA-MAA) or poly(EA-MAA) seeds the shell is composed of the more hydrophilic poly(MA-MAA) molecules relatively high in MAA content and the core is composed of both poly(MA-MAA) and poly(EA-MAA) molecules, regardless of the order of the stage feed, while the copolymeric latex particles are relatively uniform from surface to center in distribution of all components except MAA. Examination of the distribution of the carboxylic groups in all of the latex particles showed their concentration to be highest at the surface and to decrease with proximity to the center in accordance with other findings reported in the literature.

    Notes: The emulsion polymerization of styrene initiated by potassium persulfate catalyzed by Ti+3 ions was studied. Two sources of Ti+3 ions were used: the titanium trichloride and titanium sulfate. It was found that the titanium ions used in conjunction with potassium persulfate decrease both the reaction rate and the average molecular weight. An even greater drop of reaction rate was noted when chlorine anions (TiCl3) were present. The presence of these ions had a stabilizing effect on the polydispersity.

    Notes: Mass spectroscopy was done at different temperatures on epoxylated novolac resin DEN 438 (Dow Chemical Co.) alone, and after curing with various metal(II) phthalocyanine tetraamines (MPTA). Possible modes of fragmentation are given to explain the experimental results. Gas-chromatographic/mass-spectroscopic (GC-MS) analyses of MPTA derivatives indicated the presence of only trace quantities of benzene, aniline, cyanobenzene, and orthodicyanobenzene. The GC-MS studies of the cured DEN 438 epoxy resins indicated that the mechanisms of thermal degradation are qualitatively similar, and some common features were observed in their fragmentation in an electron beam and by thermal degradation. This study is a further assessment of the utility of these phthalocyanine derivatives for curing epoxy resins to produce heat-resistant polymer systems.

    Notes: The stereospecificity of benzyl derivatives of trivalent titanium (Rn TiX3-n, where X = Cl, I, n = 1-3) in butadiene polymerization was studied. It was found that dibenzyltitaniumiodide is an efficient catalyst of the 1,4-cis-polymerization of butadiene and that tribenzyltitanium forms 1,2-units. In both cases all the titanium-benzyl bonds participated in the initiation reaction and the active sites were polymeric analogues of crotyl derivatives of Ti(III); namely, bis-π-oligobutadienyltitaniumiodide and tris-π-oligobutadienyltitanium. These sites are stable at room temperature. The nature of the active sites in the polymerization of butadiene with Ziegler's 1,4-stereo-specific systems Til4 (or Til2Cl2) + AIR3 are described.

    Notes: When 4-hydroxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethyl piperidinoxyl (HTMPO) is processed in polypropylene in a closed mixer, almost 50% is converted to other products during the first few minutes whilst the applied torque in the mixer is high. There is associated formation of unsaturation and this fact, in conjunction with the almost complete regeneration of nitroxyl within five minutes, suggests that the corresponding hydroxylamine (HTMPOH), which can be qualitatively identified, is the major transformation product. A study of the UV stability of PP films fabricated from polymer processed for varying times shows that UV stability is related to the quantity of the redox couple (HTMPO + HTMPOH) remaining in the polymer. This is considerably reduced by severe processing. The redox capable has almost no thermal antioxidant (oven aging) activity.

    Notes: Polyamides 6.10 and 6.6 (PA* 6.10 and 6.6) containing small amounts of —N=N— units in the main chains were prepared by interfacial polycondensation between hexamethylenediamine and sebacoyl chloride or adipoyl chloride with addition of azobiscyanopentanoyl chloride. Polyamide-polystyrene block copolymers (PA-b-PSt) were then prepared by decomposition of the —N=N— units of PA*, initiating radical polymerization of styrene in m-cresol. The average PA block length of PA-b-PSt thus formed was longer than that expected from the initially present PA segments between the —N=N— units. This is probably due to recombination of PA radicals whose initiation efficiency is as low as 15%. The PSt blocks also had higher molecular weight (7000-79,000) in comparison with homopolystyrene produced from monomeric azobiscyanopentanoic acid used as an initiator due to higher viscosity of polymerization system. Variation of intrinsic viscosity and turbidimetric titration behavior along with the change in composition were also discussed.

    Notes: The polymerization of trimethylsilylacetylene was investigated by using W and Mo catalysts. Mixtures of WCl6 with appropriate organometallic cocatalysts such as n-Bu4Sn and Et3SiH at 1:1 molar ratio provided poly(trimethylsilylacetylene) in high yields. On the other hand, MoCI5 gave mainly methanol-soluble oligomers even in the presence of these cocatalysts. The polymer formed was a partly insoluble yellow powder, and the molecular weight of the soluble fraction was about 7000. The IR, 1H-NMR, and 13C-NMR spectra supported the polymer structure, (CH = CSiMe3)n. Protodesilylation of poly(trimethylsilylacetylene) afforded a new polymer containing both acetylene and trimethylsilylacetylene units.

    Notes: Cationic oligomerization of bicyclic oxalactam, 8-oxa-6-azabicyclo[3.2.1]octan-7-one [abbreviated as BOL (1)], was carried out at 0-60°C with trifluoromethanesulfonic acid and borontrifluoride etherate as catalysts to obtain the oligomer mixture at high yield. From the structural analysis of the isolated dimer, a N-(2(e)-carbamoyltetrahydropyran-6(e)-yl)-8-oxa-6-azabicyclo[3.2.1]octan-7-one, the oligomerization proceeded through the 5C-6N scission in (1) but not through the 6N-7C (amide group) scission as generally observed in common lactams. This peculiar oligomerization must result from the protonation to the oxamide unit in the BOL molecule.

    Notes: The kinetics of aqueous polymerization of acrylamide with KMnO4/glycine redox pair was studied in an atmosphere of nitrogen at 35 ± 0.2°C. The rate of polymerization was found to be first power on monomer, activator, and catalyst concentration. The overall energy of activation was calculated to be 15.66 kcal/deg mol (65.54 kJ/mol) between 30 and 50°C. The effects of various additives (alcohols, neutral salts, complexing agents, addition of catalyst) were studied. The dependence of the polymerization rate on the activator and catalyst concentration was studied in DMF-water mixture also. The molecular weight of polymer was determined at various temperatures of the reaction medium.

Six different diamines were condensed independently with p-phenylenedioxydiacetyl chloride (PDC) in a mixture of N-methyl pyrolidone (NMP) and hexamethyl phosphoramide (HMPA). The polymers were obtained in 80-95% yield and possessed inherent viscosities in the range 0.32-0.81 dL/g. The polymers were characterized by infrared (IR) and H1-NMR spectra. The solubility, density, crystallinity, and thermal stability of the polyamides were also determined. A model diamide (MDA-1) was also synthesized from aniline and PDC to confirm the formation of polyamides from diamines.

    Notes: Asymmetric selective (or stereoelective) polymerization of racemic 1,2-diphenylethyl methacrylate (DPEMA) with ethylmagnesium bromide (EtMgBr)-(-)-sparteine catalyst was studied in toluene at -78°C. In the polymerization (S) enantiomer was consumed preferentially and the enantiomeric excess of initially polymerized (S) enantiomer was consumed preferentially and the enantiomeric excess of initially polymerized DPEMA was greater than 90%. Optically pure (R) monomer was recovered at about 70% polymer yield. Poly(DPEMA) obtained with EtMgBr-(-)-sparteine complex was highly isotactic. It was found in the polymerization of optically active DPEMA that optical rotation of poly(DPEMA) was dependent on the tacticity and that isotactic and syndiotactic poly(DPEMA)s showed opposite optical rotations. Circular dichroism spectra of the optically active polymers were measured.

    Notes: The laser-initiated polymerization of a thiol-ene photopolymerizable system was studied. The laser was operated in single- and multiple-pulse modes to generate exotherms, which were measured in a modified differential scanning calorimeter. Arrhenius plots of the polymerization, obtained by measuring polymerization exotherms at various temperatures, showed positive and negative portions. Pseudoactivation energies for the thiol-ene polymerization increased rapidly at low conversions (〈50%) of the thiol and ene chromophores. The results were comparable to those obtained from photopolymerization of multifunctional acrylate monomers.

    Notes: By exposure to ultraviolet and gamma radiation and by the usual methods of thermal polymerization, the stereospecific polymerization of methyl aryloxymethacrylates was carried out at different temperatures in several solvents. Triad tacticity values of the polymers obtained by free-radical and ionic routes were computed from nuclear magnetic resonance spectral data. Results of this investigation support our earlier observationSee: K. Saunders, T. Balakrishnan, R. W. Lenz, and K. Hatada, Macromolecules, 12, 392 (1979). that, under the conditions used, heterotactic content is the maximum in most of these polymers, thereby justifying the high steric effect of the bulky and polar aryloxy side chain which offers equal isotactic and syndiotactic placements.

    Notes: The cationic, ring-opening polymerization of 1,6-anhydro-3,4-di-O-benzyl-2-deoxy-β-D-arabino-hexopyranose (ABDA) (=1,6-anhydro-3,4-di-O-benzyl-2-deoxy-β-D-glucopyranose) was investigated with Lewis acid as catalyst. Phosphorus pentafluoride at -78°C caused polymerization to a highly stereoregular (1 → 6)-α-linked polysaccharide. Effects of C-2 substituent on the polymerization of 1,6-anhydro sugar are discussed. In addition, copolymerization of ABDA (M1) with 1,6-anhydro-2,3,4-tri-O-benzyl-β-D-glucopyranose (LGTBE, M2) was studied. The monomer reactivity ratios calculated by the Kelen-Tüdös method were r1 = 4.46 and r2 = 1.66. Debenzylation of the polymer produced 2-deoxy-(1 → 6)-α-D-arabino-hexopyranan in which every repeating unit contained two free hydroxyl groups.

    Notes: The absolute rate constants for propagation (kp) and for termination (kt) of ethyl α-fluoroacrylate (EFA) were determined by means of the rotating sector method; kp = 1120 and kt = 4.8 × 108 L/mol.s at 30°C. The monomer reactivity ratios for the copolymerizations with various monomers were obtained. By combining the kp values for EFA from the present study and those for common monomers with the monomer reactivity ratios, the absolute values of the rate constants for cross-propagations were also evaluated. Reactivities of EFA and poly(EFA) radical, being compared with those of methyl acrylate and its polymer radical, were found to be little affected by the α-fluoro substitution. Poly(EFA) prepared with the radical initiator was characterized by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). Although the glass transition temperature obtained by DSC for poly(EFA) resembled that of poly(ethyl α-chloroacrylate), its TGA thermogram showed fast chain de polymerization to EFA that was distinct from complicated degradation of poly(ethyl α-chloroacrylate).

The two solutions were brought together and mixed by sonication. As a result, a stable emulsion was obtained, which was subsequently cast into a membrane in which the microcapsules were embedded. The salt solution contained in the microcapsules could be released under controlled conditions. The rates of release were measured. They could be controlled by applying osmotic pressures, by additional quaternization of the membrane, or by modification of the structure of the capsule wall by introduction of a surfactant.

The IR absorptivities of these functional groups were determined by using model compounds [stearic acid, stearone, poly-(1,4-butylene sebacate)]. The integral absorption of the C=O band of polymer samples which contained several oxo groups of different types was found to be additive. This method was applied to the determination of the carboxyl, ester, and ketone content of samples oxidized at different oxygen pressures.

    Notes: Polyamides and related model compounds were prepared from carboxy acids and primary amines by reacting them with triphenylphosphite in an appropriate solvent at 100°C. The reactions proceeded in the absence of organic base but were accelerated by the addition of bases such as pyridine. Nevertheless, even the powerful combination of 13C and 31P NMR failed to indicate the presence of pyridinium phosphite in the reaction mixture. In the reaction of a primary amine and carboxyl groups a detectable amount of the diphenoxy aminophosphine intermediate was observed. The end products are the amides, phenol, and diphenyl phosphite. When primary amine was not present a slow formation of a phenyl ester of the carboxylic acid was evident. All the intermediate species and the end products were formed with or without added pyridine. A mixed anhydride of carboxylic acid and phosphite was never seen. The results in this article are fundamentally the same as those in the companion article (I) for which the data were obtained at 280°C in the absence of solvent and base. However, because the reaction went quickly to completion at 280°C, the diphenoxy aminophosphine intermediate was not observed. A mechanism for the amidation in which the diphenoxy aminophosphine is an initial reaction intermediate is proposed. This species reacts with the carboxylic acid through an intramolecular substitution to give an amide. This mechanism may be valid for the high-temperature reactions as well. Several minor unclear points are indicated.

    Notes: ESCA has been used to investigate the composition and structural features of plasma-polymerized 2,4,6-trifluoro-1,3,5-triazine. Polymer formation was studied as a function of power and post-polymerisation treatment. All the polymer films revealed an intense peak at a binding energy of ∼290.2 eV probably arising from groups. A high sensitivity towards hydrolysis was observed resulting in substantial loss of fluorine and increase in oxygen content of the plasma polymers.
