    Notes: Abstract Several crossing studies with diabetic BB rats have shown that in addition to the lymphopenia (Iddm1) and the MHC class II genes of the RT1u haplotype (Iddm2) there are further non-MHC genes essential for diabetes development. Because diabetes-resistant inbred rat strains may be homozygous for one of the diabetogenic non-MHC genes, masking the expression of diabetogenic genes and leading to an underestimation of the number of diabetogenic genes, we crossed wild and diabetic BB/OK rats. The F1 hybrids were backcrossed onto diabetic female (BC1W-F, n=97) and male BB/OK rats (BC1W-M, n=98) transferred to a specified-pathogen-free environment and studied for the frequency and age at onset of diabetes up to an age of 30 weeks. Comparing the results of these BC1 W hybrids with similarly derived hybrids using diabetes-resistant DA rats (BC1DA-F, n=113; BC1DA-M, n=216), the diabetes frequency in total was comparable indicating the action of three recessive genes. The percentage of diabetics in Iddm1 and Iddm2 homozygotes confirmed the existence of the third gene, Iddm3, but there were some sex differences; significantly more male than female BC1W-F and significantly more BC1DA-M than BC1DA-F males were diabetic. Regarding the age at onset, the BC1W-F hybrids manifested not only significantly earlier, but also more uniformly than BC1DA-F and BC1-M hybrids.

    Notes: Abstract Recently, hepatocyte nuclear factor-1α (HNF-1α, which is encoded by the TCF1 gene) mutations were reported in a subset of patients with maturity onset diabetes of the young (MODY3). We studied the contribution of TCF1 to genetic susceptibility to common non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (type 2) in Japanese subjects by investigating allelic association with type 2 diabetes use of three markers. We also studied the frequency of the G191D mutation, the only mutation of TCF1 reported so far in late-onset type 2 diabetes. A total of 356 subjects were studied. There were no significant differences in allele frequency of the three markers between patients with type 2 diabetes and control subjects. A G191D mutation was not found in the subjects studied, giving a frequency of less than 0.4% in common type 2 diabetes. The lack of association of type 2 diabetes with three markers in and near TCF1 suggests that mutations in TCF1 derived from a limited number of founders are not a major cause of common type 2 diabetes even in the genetically homogeneous Japanese population. The data also indicate that the G191D mutation in TCF1 plays little, if any, role in susceptibility to common type 2 diabetes in the Japanese.

    Notes: Abstract Honey bee foragers were tested for their proboscis extension response (PER) to water and varying solutions of sucrose. Returning pollen and nectar foragers were collected at the entrance of a colony and were assayed in the laboratory. Pollen foragers had a significantly higher probability of responding to water and to lower concentrations of sucrose. Bees derived from artificially selected high- and low-pollen-hoarding strains were also tested using the proboscis extension assay. Returning foragers were captured and tested for PERs to 30% sucrose. Results demonstrated a genotypic effect on PERs of returning foragers. The PERs of departing high- and low-strain foragers were consistent with those of returning foragers. The PERs were related to nectar and water reward perception of foragers. High strain bees were more likely to return with loads of water and lower concentrations of sucrose than foragers from the low pollen strain. Low-strain bees were more likely to return empty. We identified a previously mapped genomic region that contains a variable quantitative trait locus that appears to influence sucrose response thresholds. These studies demonstrate a gene-brain-behavior pathway that can be altered as a consequence of colony-level selection for quantities of stored food.

    Notes: Abstract Non-pustular psoriasis consists of two disease subtypes, type I and type II, which demonstrate distinct characteristics. Firstly the disease presents in different decades of life, in type I before the age of 40 years and later in type II. Secondly, contrasting frequencies of HLA alleles are found: type I patients express predominantly HLA-Cw6, -B57, and -DR7, whereas in type II patients HLA-Cw2 is overrepresented. Finally, familial inheritance is found in type I but not in type II psoriasis. The study of concomitant diseases in psoriasis contributes to deciphering the distinct patterns of the disease. Defence against invading microorganisms seems better developed in psoriatics than in controls. This evolutionary benefit may have caused the overall high incidence of psoriasis of 2%. Psoriasis is a multifactorial and heterogenetically inherited disease. The heterogeneity is evident by the diversity of genetically linked markers. The multifactorial component results from the observation of external trigger mechanisms, such as the Koebner phenomenon, stress and the intake of certain drugs. Twin studies have shown that environmental factors contribute to the onset of the disease. In type I psoriasis, special extended haplotypes such as EH57.1 (HLA-Cw6-B57-DRB1*0701-DQA1*0201-DQBl*0303) and EH65.1 (HLA-Cw8-B65-DRB1*0102-DQB1*0501) have been found to be increased. The application of microsatellite techniques has identified distinct positions on several chromosomes at which putative psoriasis genes may be located. Disease susceptibility genes are thought to be present on chromosomes 4q, 6p, 16q, 17q and 20p. Moreover, on chromosome 1q, genes regulating epidermal differentiation have been identified. Linkage to this area has been proposed. Furthermore, psoriasis gene loci on chromosomes 2, 8 and 20 have been suggested.

    Notes: Abstract To quantify the risk of febrile seizures (FS) in relatives of children with FS and to predict the risk of FS in siblings, we calculated cumulative risks of FS in first degree relatives of 129 children with FS. The study was conducted as a prospective follow up study of FS recurrences at the outpatient clinic of the Sophia Children's Hospital in Rotterdam. Thirteen parents and 12 siblings had experienced FS, accounting for a 6-year cumulative risk of 7%. The risk of FS was increased in relatives of children with recurrent FS (12%). The risk of FS in siblings (10%) in our study was more than twice the average risk in a similar population (4%). A positive FS history in a parent, young age at onset in the proband, and recurrences in the proband were selected in a multivariable prediction model. If two or more of these risk factors were present, the risk of West European siblings to develop FS was 46% (hazard ratio 5.4). Conclusion The cumulative risk of FS in siblings of children with FS is increased. The age attained risk of FS can be estimated using a practical model incorporating three readily available risk factors.

    Notes: ABSTRACT We compared the parental age at birth of patients with Alzheimer disease (AD) with that of cognitively healthy control subjects. Within 206 carefully diagnosed AD patients, two groups were distinguished according to the likelihood of carrying a major gene for AD (MGAD). This likelihood was calculated by applying a Bayesian approach which incorporates data on aggregation of the disease, age at onset, and "censoring" ages within the family. All AD patients were ranked by MGAD probability. According to the sample's quartiles, two subgroups were defined representing the 52 individuals with the lowest and the 52 with the highest MGAD probability. Age at onset of dementia, education, and apolipoprotein E ε  4 allele frequencies were not statistically different between the two groups. Fathers of patients with a low MGAD probability were significantly older (35.7±8.1 years) than fathers of both other groups (high MGAD probability 31.3±6.9 years, P =0.004; controls 32.6±6.8 years, P =0.04, n=50). The differences for mothers were less pronounced and not statistically significant. These findings suggest that increased paternal age is a risk factor for AD in the absence of a major gene, whereas increased maternal age and AD are associated only weakly and independently of genetic disposition.

    Notes: ABSTRACT Despite several lines of evidence indicating a strong genetic influence in the etiology of idiopathic epilepsies, progress in the mapping and identification of human epilepsy genes has been limited until recently. In addition to the localisation and/or isolation of several genes causing progressive epilepsies associated with cerebral degeneration, at least seven human genomic regions (6p, 8q, 10q, 15q, 16p, 19q, 20q) are now known to harbour genes implicated in idiopathic epilepsies. In the case of nocturnal frontal lobe epilepsy, mutations in a nicotinic acetylcholine receptor subunit gene have been identified. Systematic studies of rare epileptic disorders inherited as monogenic Mendelian traits, as well as studies on more complex polygenic idiopathic epilepsies, are still needed in order to identify all the epilepsy genes. This will allow better diagnosis and genetic counseling in families of affected individuals, a better understanding of both the pathophysiology of epilepsies and normal brain functioning, and the design of new pharmacological and genetic therapies.

    Notes: Abstract  We have isolated and sequenced 263 microsatellite-containing clones from two small insert libraries of Actinidia chinensis enriched for (AC/GT) and (AG/CT) repeats, respectively. Primer pairs were designed for 203 microsatellite loci and successfully amplified from both plasmid and A. chinensis genomic DNA. In this paper we report the sequences of 40 primer pairs for which we have demonstrated Mendelian segregation in the progeny from controlled crosses. The polymorphism of ten microsatellites of each type was evaluated in four diploid and six tetraploid genotypes of A. chinensis. All microsatellites proved to be polymorphic, the number of alleles per locus detected in polyacrylamide sequencing gels ranging from 9 to 17. The high degree of polymorphism in Actinidia renders these markers useful either for mapping in A. chinensis or for fingerprinting cultivars of both domesticated kiwifruit species (A. chinensis and A. deliciosa). While most primer pairs produced single amplification products, about 20% generated banding patterns consistent with the amplification of two different loci. This supports the hypothesis that diploid species of Actinidia (2n=2x=58) are polyploid in origin with a basic chromosome number x=14/15 and that chromosome duplication may have occurred during the evolution of the genus. Finally, we have assayed the cross-species transportability of primer pairs designed from A. chinensis sequences and have found extensive cross-species amplification within the genus Actinidia; 75% of primer pairs gave successful amplification in the eight species assayed (A. arguta, A. rufa, A. polygama, A. chrysantha, A. callosa, A. hemsleyana, A. eriantha, and A. deliciosa), which are representative of the four sections into which the genus is currently split.

    Notes: Abstract  The large size and the long generation time of fruit trees generally reduce the possibilities of obtaining genetic information on the transmission and heritability of useful agronomic traits in these species. However, from breeding work carried out with fruit trees, an important amount of data is now available, although large differences are apparent among the different species. There is not much information known about almond compared to what is available on other Prunus fruit species, but more data have been accumulated on it than on most of the other nut trees, thus making almond special among all the temperate fruit and nut species. Only five qualitative traits have been described in almond, with an additional two also possibly qualitative. Heritabilities have been estimated for an important number of quantitative traits, mainly phenological times and fruit characters. Important information is available on molecular markers, including enzymes, RFLPs, RAPDs and other recently developed markers. Linkages, however, have only been established among molecular markers, allowing accurate genetic maps to be built but not yet enabling agronomical characters to be located in these maps, probably because the latter have not been sufficiently studied. The effectiveness of the application of genetic maps in plant breeding will depend on the accuracy of the study of different agronomic traits and their expression, implying more field work and recognition of this work. Ultimately, any new fruit cultivar has to be grown in the field and has to allow the grower to make a profit.

    Notes: Abstract  The processes of megasporogenesis and early megagametogenesis were cytologically investigated in Cupressus sempervirens L. in order to elucidate, at the cellular level, the origin of the megagametophyte. After pollination, sporogenous tissue developed in the chalazal region of the nucellus, but only one megaspore mother cell differentiated and divided meiotically without cell-wall formation. This led to the development of a cell with four nuclei which directly functioned as a megaspore. The C. sempervirens megagametophyte is thus tetrasporic, in contrast to the majority of conifers where the megagametophyte is monosporic. The consequenses of this observation are discussed from a genetics point of view.

    Notes: Abstract Background: The discovery of a cadre of breast cancer susceptibility genes has resulted in an increase in the number of women seeking information about prophylactic breast surgery, but virtually no large-scale prospective databases exist to assist women considering prophylactic mastectomy. Methods: The authors constructed a National Prophylactic Mastectomy Registry comprised of a volunteer population of 817 women from 43 states who have undergone prophylactic mastectomy. Results: In the registry, 370 women had undergone bilateral prophylactic mastectomy. Twenty-one (5%) women expressed regrets about the procedure. The median follow-up was 14.6 years (mean 14.8 years; range 0.2–51 years). Those with regrets were subsetted into those with major (n=10) or minor (n=7) regrets. Regrets were more common in those women with whom discussion about prophylactic mastectomy was initiated by a physician (19/255), compared with patients who initiated the discussion themselves (2/108;P〈.05). Conclusions: The overall satisfaction rate of 95% reported here may be explained by the voluntary nature of this registry. The most important factor that predicts an unfavorable outcome following bilateral prophylactic mastectomy is a physician-initiated discussion.

    Notes: Abstract  Autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease (ARPKD) is a rare inherited disorder which usually becomes clinically manifest in early childhood, although the spectrum of ARPKD is much more variable than generally known. Presentation of ARPKD at later ages and survival into adulthood have been observed in many cases. The responsible gene has been mapped to chromosome 6p. Thus there is no evidence of genetic heterogeneity. The most important indication for DNA diagnosis is the prenatal diagnosis in families with at least one affected child. The critical region has been narrowed with the use of recombinant families of about 4 cM. Several possible candidate genes have been excluded.

    Notes: Abstract We first recall the observational and theoretical facts that constitute the so-called 3He problem. We then review the chemical anomalies that could be related to the destruction of 3He in red giants stars. We show how a simple consistent mechanism can lead to the destruction of 3He in low mass stars and simultaneously account for the low 12C/13C ratios and low lithium abundances observed in giant stars of different populations. This process should both naturally account for the recent measurements of 3He/H in galactic HII regions and allow for high values of 3He observed in some planetary nebulae. We propose a simple statistical estimation of the fraction of stars that may be affected by this process.

    Notes: Abstract Non-spin glasses possess a number of specific features which, in structural and dynamic aspects, are close to conditions necessary for neural networks to function. In a disordered network there exists a plurality of structural parameters and a number of two-level states defined by double-well potentials. Their characteristics are specified by the conditions of glass formation, i.e. by genesis. The thermodynamic description of glass as a self-organizing system (that does not require introducing an interacting potential model) leads to an unambiguous conclusion that its frequency spectrum is predetermined by the structure, which is characterized by zero-point entropy. Glass is a natural system of oscillators which form a disordered network. In this sense, glass conforms to a known model of a disordered neural network formed by interconnected oscillators. If one assumes that in living organisms the structure of a neural network (the brain) is inherited according to a genetic mechanism, the quickness of learning and recognition of patterns, the stability of associative memory and other capabilities have to be inherited genetically. The more ordered a neural network formed by distinguishable neurons, the better its capabilities.

    Notes: Abstract The present study uses a behavioral genetic design to investigate the genetic and environmental influences on variation in adolescent body mass index (BMI) and to determine whether the relative influences of genetic and environmental factors on variation in BMI are similar across racial groups and sexes. Data for the present study come from the National Longitudinal Study on Adolescent Health (Add Health), a large, nationally representative study of adolescent health and health-related behaviors. The Add Health sample contains a subset of sibling pairs that differs in levels of genetic relatedness, making it well suited for behavioral genetics analyses. The present study examines whether genetic and environmental influences on adolescent BMI are the same for males and females and for Black and White adolescents. Results indicate that genetic factors contribute substantially to individual differences in adolescent BMI, explaining between 45 and 85% of the variance in BMI. Furthermore, based on an analysis of opposite-sex sibling pairs, the genes that influence variation in adolescent BMI are similar for males and females. However, the relative importance of genetic and environmental influences on variation in BMI differs for males and females and for Blacks and Whites. Although parameter estimates could be constrained to be equal for Black and White males, they could not be constrained to be equal for Black and White females. Moreover, the best-fitting model for Black females was an ADE model, for White females it was an ACE model, and for males it was an AE model. Thus, shared environmental influences are significant for White female adolescents, but not for Black females or males. Likewise, nonadditive genetic influences are indicated for Black females, but not for White females or males. Implications of these results are discussed.

    Description / Table of Contents: Sommario Le ceroido lipofuscinosi neuronali (NCL) sono tra le encefalopatie progressive più freguenti nell'infanzia ed interessano, seppure più raramente, l'adulto. Clinicamente sono caratterizzate da demenza, deficit visivo, epilessia e disturbi motori. Gli aspetti patologici specifici sono rappresentati da degenerazione neuronale ed accumulo lisosomiale di lipopigmento in differenti tipi cellulari. Il difetto biochimico della malattia non e noto. La classificazione delle NCL, basata su criteri clinici, distingue sei forme classiche ed altre forme atipiche. L'elettrofisiologia e la neuroradiologia sono di importante ausilio diagnostico, ma la diagnosi si fonda sull'identificazione dell'accumulo di lipopigmento the presenta pattern ultrastrutturali specifici. Differenti difetti genetici sono stati dimostrati in diverse forme cliniche, ma il meccanismo patogenetico molecolare rimane ancora da chiarire.
    Notes: Abstract Neuronal ceroid lipofuscinoses (NCLs) are among the most common neurodegenerative diseases in childhood but rarely present in adulthood. The main symptoms are psychomotor deterioration, visual failure, epilepsy and motor disturbances. The NCLs are morphologically characterized by the accumulation of lipopigments within numerous cell types and loss of neurons. Pathogenesis is unknown. The current clinical classification recognizes six classic types of NCL and several atypical forms. Electrophysiological and neuroradiological findings may be of diagnostic significance, but disease recognition rests on the demonstration of a typical ultrastructural pattern. Genetic studies have demonstrated that several different genetic loci are involved in the pathogenesis of NCL, but the molecular mechanisms underlying neuronal death and lipopigment accumulation are not understood.

    Notes: Abstract Genetic factors are likely to play a major role in the etiology of autism. The genetics of the disorder is however complex, probably involving the action of several genes. In an attempt to identify autism susceptibility loci we are currently undertaking a systematic screening of the whole human genome using multiplex families. We describe the resources and the methods needed to achieve such a task, including extensive collection of family data, semiautomated genotyping technology, and specialized statistical approaches for linkage analysis of complex traits.

    Notes: Abstract Every recruitment system in social insects requires some individuals that serve as scouts, foragers that search independently for food sources. It is not well understood which factors influence whether an individual becomes a scout or a recruit, nor how the division of labor between the two forager groups is regulated. It is shown here for honeybees (Apis mellifera), using two different molecular techniques, that there is a genetically based difference in the probability that individuals will scout independently for food. In contrast to earlier suggestions, experimental tests showed that the age of a bee does not seem to influence its probability of becoming a scout or a recruit. Furthermore, scout bees do not search opportunistically for either pollen or nectar but, rather, individuals have preferences that are genetically based. These findings are discussed in the framework of foraging regulation by specialization in honeybees and the adaptive significance of polyandry.

    Description / Table of Contents: Summary The determination of the genetic background of sexual development has not only assisted in the explanation of intersex disorders, but also in the diagnosis and clinical management of affected individuals. The possibilities and limitations of molecular genetic studies can be illustrated by the example of androgen insensitivity syndromes. The search for the underlying mutations within the androgen receptor gene is technically possible even for large numbers of patients. The characterization of mutations can be performed with high specificity and sensitivity. While large gene defects are associated with complete loss of function of the receptor, point mutations with subsequent amino acid changes are responsible for the phenotypic variability of the disease. Type and location of the amino acid substitution may influence the clinical appearance of the individual patient, but the phenotype can be highly variable even with the same underlying mutation. This is probably due to regulation mechanisms within the cell of which the androgen receptor is only one, although important, part. Therefore, results of molecular genetic testing have to be interpreted only in connection with clinical and laboratory findings. Further research will focus on the elucidation of the cellular mechanisms of androgen action in order to introduce the results into the clinical management of patients with androgen insensitivity.
    Notes: Zusammenfassung Die Aufdeckung der genetischen Grundlagen von Störungen der Geschlechtsentwicklung hat neue Möglichkeiten nicht nur in der Erklärung dieser Erkrankungen, sondern auch für die Diagnostik und den klinischen Umgang mit betroffenen Individuen eröffnet. Am Beispiel der Androgenresistenz können die Erfolge, aber auch die Grenzen molekulargenetischer Untersuchungen aufgezeigt werden. Die Suche nach den zugrundeliegenden genetischen Veränderungen im Androgenrezeptorgen ist heute technisch auch zur Analyse größerer Patientenzahlen anwendbar. Der Nachweis von Mutationen kann mit hoher Sensitivität und Spezifität in großen Genabschnitten durchgeführt werden. Während größere Gendefekte mit einem völligen Funktionsverlust des Rezeptors einhergehen, sind Punktmutationen, die zu Veränderungen der Aminosäuresequenz führen, für das große phänotypische Spektrum der Androgenresistenz verantwortlich. Zwar wird das klinische Erscheinungsbild durch Art und Ort der Aminosäuresubstitution mitbestimmt, dennoch kann der Phänotyp auch bei gleicher Mutation sehr variabel sein. Dies ist mit großer Wahrscheinlichkeit auf zelluläre Regulationsmechanismen zurückzuführen, in deren Wirkungskette der Androgenrezeptor nur ein Glied, wenn auch ein wichtiges, darstellt. Daher müssen molekulargenetische Befunde immer in Zusammenhang mit den anamnestischen, klinischen und laborchemischen Parametern gesehen werden. Ziel wissenschaftlicher Untersuchungen ist es, die zellulären Mechanismen der Androgenwirkung weiter aufzuklären, um diese Erkenntnisse dann möglicherweise in die therapeutischen Entscheidungen bei Patienten mit Androgenresistenz einfließen zu lassen.

    Notes: Dispersed atomic nickel(0) is formed during the reaction of the nickel-σ-organyl complexes with silanol groups at temperatures below 373 K. That nickel is oxidized to Ni(I) by protons of the silanol groups in a consecutive step. The Ni(I) portion amounts to about 70% w/w of the Ni used. Six different Ni(I) species are detected by electron paramagnetic resonance. They are stabilized by interaction with the silica surface and the organic moieties; they act as anchor ions for the Ni(0) atoms. Ni(0) crystallites stabilized in this way are about 0.5 nm in diameter after a treatment at 373 K. The influence of the Ni(I) ions on the collective, magnetic properties of the clusters is revealed by calculation of ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) spectra using the independent-grain approach according to Schlömann and Kotyukov. A strain of about 10 GPa is brought about in the nickel crystallites by the interaction with Ni(I) ions. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: An investigation into the microstructural properties of CoxAg1 - x films, grown by pulsed laser deposition, as a function of deposition and post-deposition annealing temperature is reported. Surface morphology and microstructure were investigated by XPS, SEM and TEM measurements. Magnetic measurements were used to gain further information on particle size distributions through the analysis of the temperature dependence of the irreversible magnetization. Depending on cobalt content, deposition and post-deposition annealing temperature, the maximum of the cobalt grains diameter distribution was estimated to be in the range 2-6 nm. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: The dynamical behavior of γ-Fe2O3 particles dispersed in a polymer have been investigated by a.c. susceptibility and Mössbauer spectroscopy measurements. The effect of interparticle interactions on the relaxation time is satisfactorily described by a superparamagnetic model where the dipolar energy is determined by a statistical calculation for a disordered arrangement of particles with volume distribution and easy axes in random orientations. The results indicate that the single particle anisotropy energy is mainly determined by surface anisotropy and that the energy barrier increases with the interaction strength. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: The methods of synthesis, elemental analysis, IR and NMR spectroscopic data and fungicidal activity against Ceratocystis ulmi are reported for a series of triorganotin esters of N-arylidene-ω-amino acids of general formula R3SnOCO(CH2)nN = CHAr (R = Ph, n-Bu; Ar = 2-HOC6H4, 2-HOC10H6; n = 1, 2, 3 and 5). The crystal structures for two of the compounds, tributyltin N-2-hydroxynaphthalidene glycinate (1) and tributyltin N-2-hydroxynaphthalidene-β-alaninate (2), have been determined. Although both of these compounds have a trans-R3SnO2 structure, in compound 1 the carboxylate group is monodentate and the fifth coordination position around the tin atom is taken up by a coordinated phenolic group, whereas in 2 the carboxylate group is bridging. These two examples thus correspond to the two different structures reported for trans-R3SnO2 complexes. Both compounds were found to be active against Ceratocystis ulmi, but there was no significant difference in their levels of biological activity against this particular fungus. Apart from compound 1, the other tributyltin compounds reported are believed to adopt the carboxylate bridging mode shown by compound (2).Crystal data: for 1, crystals monoclinic, space group P21/c, a = 12.9435(11) Å, b = 13.5769(10) Å, c = 15.7715(12) Å, β = 108.919(6)°, Z = 4, Rf = 0.046 and Rw = 0.058 for 1448 significant reflections; for 2, crystals monoclinic, space group C 2/c,a = 24.588(14) Å, b = 9.733(3) Å, c = 27.611(12) Å,β = 113.49(4)°, Z = 8, Rf = 0.053 and Rw = 0.069 for 3822 significant reflections. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Density functional calculations have been made on a binuclear metal carbonyl ion Cr2(CO)6+ found in our laser ablation-molecular beam (LAMB) experiment. Optimized structures are calculated for three different conformations: T33 of D3d symmetry with three terminal carbonyl groups on each chromium atom, B2T22 of D2h symmetry with two bridging carbonyl groups and two terminal carbonyl groups on each chromium atom, and B4T11 of D4h symmetry with four bridging carbonyl groups and one terminal carbonyl group on each chromium atom. The most stable conformation is T33 which is 36.76 and 286.44 kJ mol-1 lower in energy than B2T22 and B4T11, respectively. The difference of conformation exerts a significant influence on the internuclear distance between chromium and the carbon of terminal CO, but hardly on the Cr-Cr bond length. For B2T22 and B4T11, longer C-O distances for bridging carbonyls compared with those for terminal ones indicate effective π*-back donation from the chromium atom to the bridging carbonyl groups. Furthermore, the relative abundance of Cr2(CO)n+ (n = 0-6) observed in our previous experimental study can be explained qualitatively by comparison of the excess energy produced in the formation of a Cr+-Cr bond with the CO dissociation energy of Cr2(CO)6+. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Meta-cluster compounds can be exploited advantageously to study the evolution, with increasing size of the molecules of the physical properties of metal clusters from molecular to bulk-metal behavior. The metal-cluster molecules are well-defined, stoichiometric, chemical compounds. The molecules consist of a metal core of a variable number of atoms, surrounded by a shell of ligand atoms or molecules. Depending on the compound, the type of metal atom may be varied, whereas the core size can be changed from a few up to several thousands of atoms. Accordingly, these materials provide excellent model systems for monodisperse metal particles, embedded in a dielectric matrix, and can be investigated by the well-known experimental techniques of solid-state physics. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: The symmetrization reaction of organomercury(II) chlorides (RHgCl) to R2Hg and HgCl2 in toluene solution under identical conditions using a basic alumina column has been studied­in order to compare the effect of the nature of the R groups on the extent of symmetrization. The efficiency of symmetrization depends markedly on the electron-withdrawing nature of­R, varying from 90-94% for R = trichlorovinyl or phenyl to 11% for R = 2,6-dimethylphenyl.© 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Total arsenic concentrations and the concentrations of individual arsenic compounds were determined in liver samples of pinnipeds [nine ringed seals (Phoca hispida), one bearded seal (Erginathus barbatus)] and cetaceans [two pilot whales (Globicephalus melas), one beluga whale (Deliphinapterus leucus)]. Total arsenic concentrations ranged from 0.167 to 2.40 mg As kg-1 wet mass. The arsenic compounds extracted from the liver samples with a methanol/water mixture (9:1, v/v) were identified and quantified by anion- and cation-exchange chromatography. An ICP-MS equipped with a hydraulic high-pressure nebulizer served as the arsenic-specific detector. Arsenobetaine (0.052-1.67 mg As kg-1 wet mass) was the predominant arsenic compound in all the liver samples. Arsenocholine was present in all livers (0.005-0.044 mg As kg-1 wet mass). The tetramethylarsonium cation was detected in all pinnipeds (〈0.009 to 0.043 mg As kg-1) but not in any of the cetaceans. The concentration of dimethylarsinic acid ranged from 〈 0.001 to 0.109 mg As kg-1 wet mass. Most of the concentrations for methylarsonic acid (〈0.001 to 0.025 mg As kg-1 wet mass) were below the detection limit. Arsenous acid and arsenic acid concentrations were below the detection limit of the method (0.001 mg As kg-1). An unknown arsenic compound was present in all liver samples at concentrations from 0.002-0.027 mg As kg-1. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Diorganotin(IV) dichloride complexes of the type R2SnCl2·L (R = methyl, ethyl, vinyl, t-butyl, n-butyl or phenyl; L = N-(2-pyridylmethylene)arylamine) have been synthesized and characterized on the basis of IR, NMR and 119Sn Mössbauer studies. Investigation of the complexes indicated that N-(2-pyridylmethylene)arylamines form distorted trans-octahedral complexes with R2SnCl2 similar to the well-known R2SnCl2·L. Cytogenetic toxicology testing has been performed for Et2SnCl2·L4 [L4 = N-(2-pyridylmethylene)-4-toluidine] in mouse bone-marrow cells in vivo since such testing is a regulatory requirement before new drugs are released. This tin compound induced delay in cell-cycle kinetics and sister chromatid exchanges (SCEs) significantly. The effect of Et2SnCl2·L4 was greater when endogenous glutathione (GSH) was depleted by buthionine sulphoximine (BSO). It seems that Et2SnCl2·L4 induces SCEs due to formation of adduct by binding on DNA which could interfere in DNA synthesis and cause delay in cell proliferation. Depletion of GSH could reduce the shielding effect of GSH on chromatin and allows more Et2SnCl2·L4 to bind on DNA. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: A novel technique has been developed for the determination of trace amounts of methylmercury in various sample matrices. The newly developed HPLC method makes it possible to separate methylmercury and inorganic mercury with ultrasonic nebulization and detection by ICP MS for different mercury isotopic masses. The isotope-specific detection allows the application of the species-specific isotope addition method for the determination of methylmercury with a correction for artifact formation. The well-known water-vapour distillation method was used in combination with an enriched stable inorganic mercury isotope (200Hg2+) for the separation of methylmercury from various matrices. The subsequent determination of CH3 - 200Hg+ generated from 200Hg2+ was used in the correction for artifact formation during sample preparation. In comparison with a previously developed HPLC coupling technique with HPF-HHPN (high-performance flow/­hydraulic high-pressure nebulization), the stability of the detection procedure was improved considerably. The limit of detection (S/N = 3) for methylmercury was calculated to be about 0.015 μg kg-1. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: An analytical method is described for methylmercury determination in fish and aqueous samples using solid-phase microextraction (SPME) followed by gas chromatography-atomic fluorescence spectrometry (GC-AFS). The procedure involves aqueous-phase derivatization of methylmercury species with sodium tetraethylborate in a sample vial and subsequent extraction with a silica fiber coated with poly-­(dimethylsiloxane). The mercury derivatives are desorbed in the splitless injection port of a gas chromatograph and subsequently analyzed by GC-AFS. The headspace SPME procedure is used and parameters affecting the extraction, adsorption and desorption are evaluated. Results for methylmercury analysis in standard reference material (DORM-2) and fish samples are presented. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: The macromolecular substitution approach for the synthesis of polyphosphazenes provides access to many different polymers. However, it precludes the use of reagents that contain two or more functional groups because such compounds would cause extensive crosslinking of the chains. This presents a problem because many of the uses for which polyphosphazenes seem ideally suited require the presence of -OH, -COOH, -NH2, -SO3H, -PR2 and other functional units in the side-chain structure. We have developed two approaches to introduce such active sites: (1) protection-deprotection reactions; and (2) direct reactions of active reagents with the organic side-groups of non-functional poly(organophosphazenes). These methods have been applied both at the molecular level and in the form of reactions carried out only at polymer surfaces. The resultant polymers have special properties that are valuable in the micro-encapsulation of sensitive biological agents; in the formation of hydrophobic, hydrophilic, or adhesive surfaces; in crosslinking reactions; and in the development of solid polymer electrolytes, bio-erodible polymers, pH-triggered hydrogels, polymer blends and interpenetrating polymer networks. Overall, more than 700 different polyphosphazenes are now known, and a large number of these are functional macromolecules targeted for specific property combinations and uses. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: A diverse and entirely new class of monomer and polymer technology based on polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS) reagents has been developed. POSS reagents are unique in that they are physically large (approx. 15 Å diameter and 1000 amu) and are composed of a robust silicon-oxygen framework that can be easily functionalized with a variety of organic substituents. Appropriate functionalization of POSS cages allows for their incorporation into traditional thermoplastic resins without modification of existing manufacturing processes. The incorporation of POSS segments into linear copolymer systems results in increased glass transition and decomposition temperatures, increased oxygen permeability and reduced flammability and heat evolution, as well as modified mechanical properties relative to conventional organic systems. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Recent advances in the synthesis of block, graft and star polymers containing inorganic macromolecular species are described. Anionic copolymerization techniques were used in the for-­mation of diblock copolymers of poly(styrene-block-methylphenylsilylene) and poly(isoprene-block-methylphenylsilylene) by the ring-opening polymerization of 1,2,3,4-tetramethyl-1,2,3,4-tetraphenylcyclotetrasilane initiated by living anionic polystyrene and isoprene respectively. Hydrosilation of an attachable initiator onto telechelic vinyl- or hydrosilyl-terminal or­-pendant poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) yielded a PDMS macroinitiator. This macroinitiator was used in atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) of styrene and isobornyl acrylate to produce ABA triblock copolymers. As a model for graft copolymers from a polyphosphazene backbone, chemical trans-­formation of hexachlorocyclotriphosphazene­resulted in hexafunctional molecules containing either benzyl bromide or bromopropionyl moieties. The initiator 1,1,3,3,5,5-hexakis[4-(2-bromopropionyloxymethyl)phenoxy]cyclotriphosphazene was used in the ATRP of styrene to yield a polymer with a narrow, monomodal molecular weight distribution. Chain extension of this star polymer with isobornyl acrylate is also described. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: The rearrangement reaction of an organocobalt polymer with cobaltacyclopentadiene moieties in the main chain (1) was carried out to yield a­new polymer bearing (η5-cyclopentadienyl) (η4-­cyclobutadiene)cobalt moieties in the main chain (2). For instance, a polymer (2) containing pure η4-cyclobutadienecobalt units was obtained as a yellow powder in 79% yield by the reaction of 1 in tetrahydrofuran (THF) at 110 °C for 1 h in a sealed tube. The polymer (2) obtained was soluble in organic solvents such as chloroform, THF and N,N-dimethylformamide and was quite stable under air. It showed good thermal stability and a weight loss of 5% was observed at 482 °C by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). On the other hand, displacement of the triphenylphosphine ligands on the main chain of the organocobalt polymer (1), without rearrangement of the cobaltacyclopentadiene rings, was observed when the reaction was carried out in the presence of appropriate ligands such as P(n-Bu)3. The resulting ligand-exchanged polymer showed different properties in comparison with 1. For instance a polymer bearing tri-n-octylphosphine is soluble in n-hexane, which is a poor solvent for 1. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: The preparation of organic-inorganic polymer hybrids consisting of carbon-carbon and siloxane chains was investigated by radical polymerization of 3-methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane (MAS) followed by acid-catalyzed hydrolytic polycondensation. The condensation of poly(3-methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane) (S-PMA) of various molecular weights Mn =830-12000 prepared by polyaddition provided transparent and flexible free-standing hybrid gel films. The mechanical properties of these films were highly dependent on the carbon-carbon chain length: with an increase in the carbon-carbon chain length, the elasticity of gel films increased, while the tensile strength and Young's modulus decreased. Hydrolyzability of S-PMA decreased with an increase in the carbon-carbon chain length, resulting in the formation of rubber-like films with flexibility. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Homogeneous poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA)-silica gel polymer hybrids were prepared by in-situ hydrolysis of poly(vinyl acetate) (PVAc) in a sol-gel reaction mixture with tetramethoxysilane (TMOS). The degree of hydrolysis was evaluated by FTIR and 13C CP/MAS NMR; it increased with an increase in the acid catalyst and reached 85% with 1.6 ml of 0.1 M HCl. The homogeneity of the polymer hybrids obtained was maintained when the reaction was performed at 60 °C. However, the polymer hybrid became turbid with an increase of the amount of catalyst present when the reaction was conducted at room temperature. The homogeneity of the polymer hybrids obtained was evaluated by nitrogen sorption porosimetry of a porous silica that was obtained by charring the PVA hybrid. The results confirmed the molecular-level dispersion of the PVA in the hybrid. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Poly(arylene ether) main-chain phosphonium ionomers were successfully synthesized and characterized. The reaction scheme involved first preparing the poly(arylene ether phosphine oxide) by a nucleophilic step or condensation polymerization of bisphenolates on activated aryl halides, wherein phenyl phosphine oxide was the activating group. High-molecular-weight, tough, film-forming polymers were produced with glass transition temperatures of 200°C or higher. The resulting materials were successfully reduced using phenylsilane in refluxing chlorobenzene. The derived phosphine or phosphine/phosphine oxide copolymer was reacted with alkyl halides to produce the phosphonium salts. The resulting materials showed enhanced hydrophilicity and in some cases could be successfully dispersed in water. In addition, chromophores such as Methyl Orange and Methyl Red were combined with the backbone ionomer to produce new film-forming, ionically linked species. The materials are of general interest for situations where water-dispersible intermediates, e.g. coatings, fiber sizings etc. are required. The phosphonium salts can be converted back to the phosphine oxide in fairly high yields by simple thermal methods and in quantitative yield by chemical methods (e.g. the Wittig reaction). © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Our recent work directed at the design, synthesis, characterization and applications of new types of polyborazylene and polyborosilazane polymers is reviewed with a focus on the use of these polymers as processable precursors to BN and SiNCB composites. A design strategy based on the controlled functionalization of preformed polymers with pendant groups of suitable compositions and crosslinking properties has been employed to yield second-generation dipentylamine-polyborazylene (DPA) and pinacolborane-hydridopolysilazane (PIN-HPZ) polymers, which, unlike the parent polyborazylene (PB) and the borazine-hydridopolysilazane (B-HPZ) polymers, are stable as melts and can be easily melt-spun into polymer fibers. Subsequent pyrolyses of these polymer fibers then provide excellent routes to BN and SiNCB ceramic fibers. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: An analytical procedure for the determination of phenyltin compounds in environmental sample waters was studied. Chromatography of mono-, di- tri-phenyltin (MPT, DPT and TPT) was performed on a reversed-phase C18 column with the mobile phase comprising methanol/10-2 M H3PO4 (80:20 v/v) at pH 3 and UV detection at 214 nm. To enhance the sensitivity of the detection system, the post-column reaction between morin or 3-hydroxyflavone and phenyltin compounds was formed before fluorescence detection. Several parameters affecting the fluorescence intensity were studied systematically, including the optimum condition for the post-column reagent that was also compatible with the eluent. The parameters concerned in this study were the pH, the percentage of Triton X-100, the ratio of fluorigenic reagent to phenyltin compounds and the amount of methanol in the eluent. Detection limits before the preconcentration process were in the region of 1.5 ppb for TPT and 150-250 ppb for MPT and DPT, respectively. Utilizing solid-phase extraction on a C18 cartridge for sample clean-up as well as preconcentration successfully reduced the detection limit of TPT to the level of ng dm-3 and can be applied to seawater analysis. Recovery in the range 95.0-98.0% was obtained by developing the optimum elution profile in the preconcentration step. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Triphenyltin(IV) compounds of p-ethoxybenzoic acid and acetylsalicylic acid contain molecular units with Sn-O bonds and distorted tetrahedral tin centers. The phthalic acid derivative contains two four-coordinate tin atoms between which the phthalic acid unit effectively forms a bridge. The salicylaldehydato compound is polymeric with trigonal bipyramidal tin centers in which the phenyl groups take equatorial positions.

    Notes: In the interest of developing a more effective fungicide to combat Dutch elm disease, our laboratories have synthesized several triphenyltin carboxylates and some 1:1 addition compounds of triphenyltin chloride using 2,3-disubstituted thiazolidin-4-ones as the ligand and screened them in vitro against Ceratocystis ulmi, the causative agent of Dutch elm disease, using a shake culture method. Elemental analyses and spectroscopic data indicate that the structures of the carboxy- lates in the solid state are monomeric with a tetrahedral tin atom with the exception of the furan-2-carboxylic acid derivative, which was found to be polymeric. The triphenyltin chloride adducts are trigonal-bipyramidal with the three phenyl groups in the equatorial plane. Far-infrared data indicate that the three phenyl groups are not co-planar. Screening results for both series of organotins indicate that these two classes of compounds are effective inhibitors of Ceratocystis ulmi, with the adducts having a higher activity. The furan-2-carboxylic acid derivative has a markedly decreased activity compared with the other carboxylates and this is attributed to its polymeric structure. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: A series of triarylantimony dichrysanthemate compounds of the type Ar3Sb(O2CR)2 [Ar=C6H5, 4-CH3C6H4, 3-CH3C6H4, -CH3C6H4, 4-ClC6H4; R=4-ClC6H4CH(i-Pr), cis-Cl2C:CH trans-Cl2C:CH] have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, infrared spectra, 1H NMR spectra and mass spectra. Some activities of these compounds in plant growth regulation have been determined. Their results indicate that the derivatives of cis-dichlorochrysanthemic acid and trans-dichlorochrysanthemic acid significantly promote rooting of excised cucumber cotyledons at 10 ppm. An X ray structure determination has been carried out as follows for Ph3Sb(O2CCHCMe2CMe2)2: orthorhombic, space group Pbcn, Z=4, structure solution with 2385 independent reflections, R=0.035.

    Notes: Two different cationic redox labels, i.e. a ferroceneammonium ion and a cobaltocenium ion, were covalently attached to two antiepileptics, phenytoin and phenobarbital, respectively. The two labeled drugs possess distinct standard redox potentials of 0.39 V for the phenytoin derivative and -0.92 V for phenobarbital derivative (vs Ag/AgCl, Cl- 0.05 M) at a carbon paste electrode. After preconcentration in a polyanionic Nafion-loaded carbon paste electrode the positively charged labeled phenytoin and phenobarbital derivatives could be simultaneously detected in concentration ranges which were relevant to the therapeutic ranges of the antiepileptics, with a view to a future dual-analyte immuno- assay. Square-wave voltammetry permitted detection limits of 5×10-8 M (for the phenytoin derivative) and 2.5×10-8 M (for the phenobarbital derivative) for non-simultaneous detection. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: The growth response of the alga Chlorella kessleri and the euglenoid Euglena gracilis has been studied as a model system to determine the effects of a tin salt (SnCl4·5H2O) and of some organotin (OT) derivatives, namely tetrabutyltin (TeBT), tributyltin (TBT) and tributyltin oxide (TBTO). Abiotic degradation was studied as well. Cells were exposed to a toxicity series (0-50 μg/mL-1) for the four chemicals in seven-day bioassays. Both microorganisms are tolerant of the inorganic salt, but growth inhibition was significant for all OT compounds, and especially large for TBT and TBTO. Although C. kessleri and E. gracilis are known to be tolerant towards metals and organic chemicals, the present results show that both are sensitive to organotin compounds: the inhibition of the growth was greater for C. kessleri. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: The synthesis of carbohydrate surfactants bearing carbosilane, silane, polysilane and non-permethylated siloxane moieties is described. These surfactants consist of three structural elements: (1) a silicon-containing moiety, (2) a spacer and (3) a carbohydrate unit. Additionally two different types of mixed structures have been synthesized: (a) single-chained carbosilane-siloxane surfactants and (b) double-chained combinations of carbo- silanes, silanes and siloxanes. The wetting behaviour of the key intermediates, the allyl glycidyl derivatives, has been investigated by static surface tension (γlv, σ) and wetting tension (γsv-γsl, α) measurements on a non-polar perfluorinated surface (FEP® plate). The contact angles obtained for these pure liquids are not a linear function of the surface tension but depend on the polarity of the substructures. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Bis(4-aminophenyl) telluride and bis(2-amino-5-nitrophenyl) telluride were polymerized with aromatic and aliphatic diacid chlorides (i.e. terephthaloyl chloride and sebacoyl chloride), as well as with toluene di-isocyanate, leading to new organic tellurium polyamides and polyurea. All organic tellurium compounds and their condensation polymers were characterized by elemental analyses, IR, 1H and 13C NMR, and mass spectroscopy. The thermal stabilities of the resulting polymers were determined by thermogravimetric and derivative thermogravimetric techniques. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

The reduction in DNA synthesis correlates well with inhibition of de novopurine synthesis and the key enzymes involved in this pathway, i.e. IMP dehydrogenase and PRPP amido transferase. These compounds were also observed to induce DNA strand scission but did not appear to intercalate between base pairs of DNA, alkylate bases or cause cross-linking of the strands of DNA. Tetrakis-μ-(trimethylamine - boranecarboxylato)acetonitrile dicopper(II) also demonstrated the ability to inhibit L1210 DNA topoisomerase II activity. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Studies on the metabolism of TBT showed that it can be easily degraded to DBT (dibutyltin) in these tissues. Further degradation of DBT to MBT (monobutyltin) was much more difficult. A mesocosm was used for the first time to study the toxicity of TBT in tilapia. The result demonstrated that the TBT bioconcentration curve changed with the initial concentrations of TBT but the order of bioconcentration in the tissues did not change. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Phenyltin compounds are known to be biologically active. Their chemical structure suggests that they are likely to interact with the lipid fraction of cell membranes. Using fluorescence and NMR techniques, the effect of phenyltin compounds on selected regions of model lipid bilayers formed from phosphatidylcholine was studied. The polarization of N-(7-nitrobenz-2-oxa-1,3-diazol-4-yl) dipalmitoyl-L-phosphatidylethanolamine and desorption of praseodymium ions was used to probe the polar region, whereas the polarization of 1 - (4 - trimethylammoniumphenyl) - 6 - phenyl - 1,3,5-hexatriene p-toluenesulfonate measured the hydrophobic core of the membrane. In addition, changes in the N-(5-fluoresceinthiocarbanoly)dipalmitoyl - L - α - phosphatidyl - ethanolamine fluorescence intensity indicated the amount of charge introduced by organotin compounds to the membrane surface. There were no relevant changes of measured parameters when tetraphenyltin was introduced to the vesicle suspension. Diphenyltin chloride causes changes of the hydrophobic region, whereas the triphenyltin chloride seems to adsorb in the headgroup region of the lipid bilayer. When the hemolytic activity of phenyltin compounds was measured, triphenyltin chloride was the most effective whereas diphenyltin chloride was much less effective. Tetraphenyltin causes little damage. Based on the presented data, a correlation between activity of those compounds to hemolysis (and toxicity) and the location of the compound within the lipid bilayer could be proposed. In order to inflict damage on the plasma membrane, the compound has to penetrate the lipid bilayer. Tetraphenyltin does not partition into the lipid fraction; therefore its destructive effect is negligible. The partition of the compound into the lipid phase is not sufficient enough, by itself, to change the structure of the lipid bilayer to a biologically relevant degree. The hemolytic potency seems to be dependent on the location of the compound within the lipid bilayer. Triphenyltin chloride which adsorbs on the surface of the membrane, causes a high level of hemolysis, whereas diphenyltin chloride, which penetrates much deeper, seems to have only limited potency. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier-transform spectroscopy (DRIFTS) and headspace analysis gas-phase infrared spectroscopy (HAGIS) were used to investigate interactions between soils and the gasoline additive methylcyclopentadienylmanganese tricarbonyl (MMT). Various soil samples, as well as alumina and silica substrates, were studied. Each substrate exhibited a splitting or broadening of the degenerate e ν(CO) band of MMT, suggesting an interaction involving one or two of the CO ligands. The adsorption was shown to be reversible under relatively mild conditions using HAGIS. The proposed interaction is of the Brønsted type, involving the carbonyl oxygen and a surface-bound water or hydroxyl group. This type of interaction could stabilize MMT by inhibiting photo-ejection of CO ligands, a common first step in the decomposition of organometallic carbonyl compounds such as MMT. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: The method of hydride generation for the speciation of antimony compounds was examined with respect to the problem of molecular "rearrangement'. Specifically, demethylation of trimethylstilbine during the analysis of trimethylantimony dichloride (Me3SbCl2) was studied. Previously published observations that enhanced demethylation takes place as a result of inadequate preconditioning of the analytical apparatus were found to be not reproducible. However, demethylation was enhanced as the pH decreased when using two different analytical methods: semi-continuous flow hydride generation-gas chromatography-atomic absorption spectrometry (HG- GC-AAS), and batch-type hydride generation- gas chromatography-inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (HG-GC-ICP MS). Applications of the hydride generation method to environmental samples revealed differences in analytical results at high and low pH, and enhanced demethylation taking place because of the matrix in a fungal extract sample. The authors recommend that researchers using the method of hydride generation for antimony compounds carefully test the reaction conditions with standard compounds and use the method of standard addition only. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Arsenobetaine, arsenocholine, trimethylarsine oxide and tetramethylarsonium iodide, which are contained in marine fishery products, were examined for their potencies on cell growth inhibition, chromosomal aberration and sister chromatid exchange (SCE). Arseno- betaine, the major water-soluble organic arsenic compound in marine animals, exhibited very low cytotoxicity towards mammalian cells. This compound showed no cell growth inhibition at a concentration of 10 mg cm-3 and the cytotoxicity was lower than 1/14 000th of that of sodium arsenite and 1/1600th of that of sodium arsenate towards BALB/c 3T3 cells. The chromosomal aberrations caused by arsenobetaine at a concentration of 10 mg cm-3 consisted mainly of chromatid gaps and chromatid breaks, but in this concentration chromosomal breakage owing to its osmotic pressure is likely to be considerable. No SCE was observed at a concentration of 1 mg cm-3. Arsenocholine and trimethylarsine oxide also showed no cell growth inhibited at a concentration of 10 mg cm-3. However, tetramethylarsonium iodide inhibition the growth of BALB/c 3T3 at a concentration of 8 mg cm-3. These compounds exhibited a low ability to induce chromosomal aberrations at a concentration range of 2-10 mg cm-3 and no SCE was observed at a concentration of 1.0 mg cm-3. These results suggested that the major and minor organic arsenic compounds contained in marine fishery products are much less cytotoxic inorganic arsenic, methylarsonic acid and dimethylarsinic acid. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Laser-assisted chemical vapor deposition (LCVD) was utilized to produce SnO2 films from SnBr4 plus air, O2 or N2O. SnO2 films were successfully generated using either 222 or 308 nm laser pulses but there was evidence for film contamination when using less than 60 mJ/pulse laser energies at 222 nm. Films were characterized using ultraviolet absorption spectroscopy; the spectra of films with impurities resembled the spectrum of SnBr4. AFM images were obtained which indicated that this LCVD route produced small and fairly uniform SnO2 grains which were 50-100 nm in size. Multiphoton ionization spectroscopy was used to verify that the dissociation of a film dopant precursor, copper(II) acetate, produced gas-phase copper atoms under conditions similar to those used in film deposition experiments. The deposition of SnO2 from SnBr4 plus an oxidant was found to be more efficient than from di-n-butyl tin diacetate but films produced via this new LCVD route, including those doped with copper, were found to be much less sensitive in preliminary gas-sensing screening. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: A new one-step method, entitled fluidized-bed metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (FBMOCVD) of preparing highly dispersed metal-supported catalysts is reported. The following complexes were studied and used as CVD precursors in presence of H2: [Rh(μ-Cl)(CO)2]2, Rh(allyl)3, Rh(acac)(CO)2, Pd(allyl)(hfac), Pd(allyl)(Cp), Pt(COD)(CH3)2. (acac, acetylacetonato; hfac, hexafluoroacetylacetonato; Cp, cyclopentadienyl; COD, cyclooctadienyl). In a first approach, depositions on planar substrates were carried out to establish the best experimental conditions to obtain good-quality deposits. X-ray diffraction, X-ray photo-electron spectroscopy and electron microprobe studies were realized on the resulting thin films. Analyses of the products contained in the gas phase after and during deposition were performed by mass spectrometry and GC-MS. Finally, catalysts prepared by FBMOCVD were characterized by transmission electron microscopy-energy dispersion spectroscopy (TEM-EDS), metal-loading determinations and specific-surface measurements (BET). Dispersed nanosized aggregates were obtained, showing high activities in alkene hydrogenation and alcohol hydrocarbonylation. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Ceramic thin films containing titanium, vanadium, carbon, oxygen and nitrogen were obtained on steel substrates at 873 K, under nitrogen and helium gases and at low pressure, by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) from two organometallic precursors, CpTiCl2N(SiMe3)2 and Cp2VMe2 (Cp, cyclopentadienyl). Independent TG-DTA-MS and CVD studies of the two precursors showed their ability to co-decompose within compatible temperature and pressure domains. The mechanism of the reactions occurring inside the CVD apparatus was also approached by GC-MS and NMR analyses of the condensed decomposition products. CVD conducted under He gas confirmed that the formation of nitride resulted from the nitrogen atoms of the precursor, but the nitrogen content in the films remained lower than approx. 5%. Higher nitrogen contents (up to 12%) were only obtained when using ammonia as a carrier gas. Both precursors being air- and moisture-sensitive, high-purity CVD equipment was used to reduce oxycarbide formation. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Amorphous chromium carbonitride coatings with a low nitrogen content (3-8 at%) were deposited by low-pressure MOCVD in the temperature range 573-793 K using Cr(NEt2)4 as single-source precursor. This poor nitrogen incorporation is in agreement with the trends predicted by thermochemical calculations. XPS data, resistivity measurements and annealing experiments suggest that the films grown at 573 K are contaminated by organic species due to incomplete elimination of the ligands. The films deposited at higher temperature crystallize upon annealing at 873 K to form an orthorhombic ternary chromium carbonitride phase. The major volatile by-products of the MOCVD reaction were analyzed by 1H and 13C NMR. Their amount and the quasi-equimolar EtN=CHMe/HNEt2 ratio suggest that most of the NEt2 ligands are removed by a stepwise mechanism which probably occurs with other diethylamido complexes of transition metals when they are used as single-source precursors in MOCVD. The incorporation of the metalloid elements in the film is discussed in comparison with recent literature data. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: A review of the coating kinetics of molybdenum and chromium oxycarbides and a study on the properties of deposited films are reported. Molybdenum carbonyl, chromium carbonyl and their mixture were used to prepare coatings at temperatures between 170 and 450 °C on SS304 or SiC substrates by a process of metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD). The processing parameters of the coatings, such as the evaporation of precursors, coating pressure and temperature, are discussed along with the coating rates, compositions and other microstructural information, so to reveal the kinetics of the coating process on two different substrates. In addition, the chemical composition, crystalline phases and microstructure of the coatings obtained in various conditions are presented with the evidence interpreted by various electron-microscopic and spectroscopic techniques, including XRD, EDS, EPMA and XPS. The dependence of some properties, such as hardness, adhesive strength and corrosive resistance of the coatings on SS 304, on their composition and the deposited phases, i.e. as a function of coating temperature and pressure, is reviewed. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Conventional MOCVD techniques require molecules displaying volatility and constant vapor pressure. Metal oxide precursors, i.e., β-diketonates, or classical or functionalized metal alkoxides are mostly solids. The various approaches used to tailor volatility are discussed with barium derivatives as an example. The relationships between sublimation temperature and molecular weight suggest that volatility can be optimized on the basis of molecular weight.   Aerosol-assisted CVD (AACVD) can use a larger range of precursors since volatility is no longer crucial. The solvent is an undesired ballast in a CVD process. High solubility of the precursors in the selected solvent is thus desirable. ‘Stability’ here includes the absence of precipitation which would change the stoichiometry of the feed solution for multicomponent oxides. Precipitation is often promoted by hydrolysis; stability toward moisture is thus desirable. The use of mixtures of precursors based on different ligands (β-diketonates, β-ketoesterates, alkoxides) can lead to ligand exchange reactions giving homometallic species, sometimes of low solubility, or mixed-metal species by self-assembly, thus improving solubility and stability toward moisture. These aspects are illustrated in compositions related to high-Tc superconductors. Novel copper, yttrium, cerum(IV), barium-copper, yttrium-copper and praseodynium-copper species are reported. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: The dissolution of tin metal by iodomethane-water mixtures has been studied and the influence of several parameters on both the extent and rate of reaction investigated. The rate-determining step shows a pseudo-first-order dependence on iodomethane (CH3I). The reaction is strongly dependent upon both water and oxygen. The activation energy of only 16 kJ mol-1 is interpreted in terms of a facile bond-breaking and making process at the metal surface, generating methyltin species. Analysis by hydride generation and GC-AA confirmed the formation of methylated species ranging from monomethyl- to tetramethyl-tin; inorganic tin (from hydrolysis) was the major form, however. These findings are similar to those made earlier by us on the solubilization of arsenic from GaAs by alkyl halide-water mixtures, and a similar multi-step scheme is proposed. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Arsenic speciation in a brown alga, Fucus gardneri, collected in Vancouver, B.C., Canada, was carried out by using high-performance liquid chromatography-inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (HPLC-ICP-MS). Hydride generation-atomic absorption spectrometry (HG-AAS) was used for total arsenic determination. The relative amounts of some arsenosugars 1 in growing tips are found to be different in comparison with the remainder of the plant. Fucus samples collected in summer contain 9 ppm of total arsenic. Most of the arsenic species are extractable. Fucus samples collected in winter contain relatively higher amounts of arsenic, 16-22 ppm, but only low amounts of this are extractable. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Surface hydrogen and growth mechanisms are investigated for synchrotron radiation (SR)-assisted gas source molecular beam epitaxy (SR-GSMBE) using Si2H6 on the Si(100) surface in the low-temperature region. The surface silicon hydrides (deuterides) are monitored in situ during the epitaxial growth by means of infrared reflection absorption spectroscopy with a Si(100) substrate and a CoSi2 buried metal layer. It is concluded that the chemisorption of gas-phase reactive species such as SiHn and H generated by SR irradiation and the subsequent hydrogen desorption are the key mechanisms of SR-GSMBE at low substrate temperatures. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Cesium chloride- and rubidium chloride-promoted Rochow contact masses based on both technical-grade and highly pure silicon have been investigated in the Rochow reaction and by REM/EDX surface analysis. The alkali-salt promoters seem to act analogously to the well-known zinc promoter, by localizing the reaction to distinct reactive areas and keeping free the surface area for the reaction, probably for the formation of catalytically active Cu-Si surface species. The alkali salts exhibited their promoting action only in combination with the impurities within the technical-grade silicon. Otherwise, they acted as blocking poisons. The promoter action of alkali chlorides in contact masses based on technical-grade silicon is possibly connected with the formation of salt melts, containing alkali chlorides and impurities. These melts, analogously to zinc chloride, could dissolve oxidic impurities from the silicon surface which otherwise would enhance the blocking of potentially active surface by extensive copper deposition. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: The wetting behaviour of carbohydrate surfactants bearing siloxane, carbosilane, polysilane or silane moieties has been investigated. By static surface tension (γlv, σ) and wetting tension (γsv-γsl, α) measurements on a non-polar perfluorinated surface (FEP®), the contact angles of aqueous surfactant solutions above the critical micelle formation concentration (cmc) were determined. Surface tension and wetting tension react independently on defined changes in the chemical structure of the surfactant molecules. Siloxane surfactants reduce the surface tension most effectively, whereas for a neopentyl-substituted silane derivative the lowest solid/liquid interfacial tension was found. The data for isomeric siloxanes, carbosilanes and silanes suggest that donor-acceptor forces at solid interfaces have a maximum range of about 4.5 Å. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: A new method of synthesis of acetic acid in water has been developed from the carboxylation of methane with carbon monoxide using lanthanide catalysts. Ytterbium(III) acetate has been found to be the most active catalyst among the compounds of the lanthanide series in the carboxylation reaction of methane with carbon monoxide. Sodium hypochlorite or hydrogen peroxide was used as the oxidant in this reaction. Sodium hypochlorite exhibited more favorable activity than hydrogen peroxide in the reaction. The catalytic activity was improved by the addition of transition-metal salts such as manganese(II) acetate. The best result has been found at a ratio of manganese(II) acetate to ytterbium(III) acetate of 1:10. The optimum reaction conditions (reaction temperature, 40 °C; time, 20 h; methane, 20 atm; carbon monoxide, 5 atm) have been obtained. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Samples of the edible mushroom Laccaria amethystina, which is known to accumulate arsenic, were collected from two uncontaminated beech forests and an arsenic-contaminated one in Denmark. The total arsenic concentration was 23 and 77 μg  As g-1 (dry weight) in the two uncontaminated samples and 1420 μg As g-1 in the contaminated sample. The arsenic species were liberated from the samples using focused microwave-assisted extraction, and were separated and detected by anion- and cation-exchange high-performance liquid chromatography with an inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer as arsenic-selective detector. Dimethylarsinic acid accounted for 68-74%, methylarsonic acid for 0.3-2.9%, trimethylarsine oxide for 0.6-2.0% and arsenic acid for 0.1-6.1% of the total arsenic. The unextractable fraction of arsenic ranged between 15 and 32%. The results also showed that when growing in the highly arsenate-contaminated soil (500-800 μg As g-1) the mushrooms or their associated bacteria were able to biosynthesize dimethylarsinic acid from arsinic acid in the soil. Furthermore, arsenobetaine and trimethylarsine oxide were detected for the first time in Laccaria amethystina. Additionally, unidentified arsenic species were detected in the mushroom. The finding of arsenobetaine and trimethylarsine oxide in low amounts in the mushrooms showed that synthesis of this arsenical in nature is not restricted to marine biota. In order to minimize the toxicological risk of arsenic to humans it is recommended not to consume Laccaria amethystina mushrooms collected from the highly contaminated soil, because of a genotoxic effect of dimethylarsinic acid observed at high doses in animal experiments. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.No Abstract.
