It was found that the most effective and selective extractants from hydrocarbon solutions are water-acetonitrile mixtures containing from 10 to 20 % by volume of water. An extraction technique has been developed for sample preparation of biologically active dietary supplements for subsequent gas chromatographic determination of anabolic steroids in them using a triple quadrupole mass spectrometric detector. The proposed method is characterised by a standard deviation of 10–15 % and a detection limit about 10 μg/kg of biologically active dietary supplements, which makes it possible to reliably determine impurities of prohibited anabolic steroids in them.","PeriodicalId":17303,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Belarusian State University.

Wide field of temozolomide application dictates the need for its comprehensive thermodynamic study. In this work temperature dependance of the temozolomide heat capacity was obtained using the adiabatic calorimetry method and the standard thermodynamic functions of crystalline temozolomide were calculated in the temperature range 80–370 K. Standard thermodynamic functions of the temozolomide in the ideal gas state were calculated using the statistical thermodynamics approach in the temperature range 0–1000 K. To obtain the standard internal energy and enthalpies of combustion and formation of crystalline temozolomide at T = 298.15 K the combustion bomb calorimetry was used. Standard enthalpy of formation of the gaseous temozolomide was calculated in the framework of the isodesmic reactions method using quantum chemical computing. To calculate standard sublimation enthalpy of temozolomide the electrostatic potential model was applied.

Aggregation of silver nanoplates occurs in the presence of Na-phosphate buffer whereas at the same conditions the quasi-spherical nanoparticles retain colloidal stability. The difference in colloidal stability between 3D and 2D silver nanoparticles is due to the increase of the apparent acid dissociation constant on the nanoplates’ basal faces and the subsequent increase in specific bridging interactions nanoparticle – cation – nanoparticle which can be eliminated by introducing of non-ionic spacer (11-mercapto-1-undecanol) in the ligand layer.

Investigation of the chemical composition of waste gases from a propane-butane mixture pyrolysis unit during the synthesis of carbon nanomaterials is of scientific and applied value, since it allows one to study both the chemistry of the pyrolysis process of hydrocarbon mixtures and determine the degree of toxicity of waste gas from pyrolysis units. The quantitative determination of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in the gaseous products of pyrolysis of a propane-butane mixture during the synthesis of carbon nanomaterials has shown that when sampling with a small amount of the Supelpak-2 adsorbent, which is widely used in international and domestic methods, efficient capture of multinuclear aromatic hydrocarbons is not ensured. Therefore, an important research issue is the development of a simple and effective method for sampling polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons with their subsequent GC-MS analysis. The principal essence of the technique is the impregnation of two fiberglass filters with an organic low-volatile solvent – diethylene glycol, tetraethylene glycol or dimethyl sulfoxide. The latter is characterised by the highest extracting power in relation to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. The developed technique makes it possible to increase the efficiency of capturing multinuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (with four or more rings in a molecule) to 96–98 % compared to a solid adsorbent under equal conditions (pyrolysis conditions, weight of adsorbent equal with filters impregnated with a solvent), where the degree of their extraction is 1–5 %. The established values of the degree of recovery of the measured components are explained by the high extracting ability of dimethyl sulfoxide in relation to multinuclear aromatic hydrocarbons.","PeriodicalId":17303,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Belarusian State University.

Two reaction mechanisms were proposed and studied by means of quantum chemistry: a two-stage mechanism that proceeds via NO dimer formation on catalysts with high (above 2 wt. %) silver concentration and a parallel mechanism with isocyanates involved on catalysts with low (below 2 wt. %) silver concentration. It was demonstrated that on catalysts with high silver concentration mechanism that involves stepwise NO reduction via N2O to N2 is realised. Moreover, the final stage is complicated by the fact that formed intermediates and N2O are likely to desorb from the catalyst surface. In the case of catalysts with low silver concentration, the formation of both products (N2O and N2) proceeds in parallel and the lower activation barriers of the reaction leading to N2, as well as the thermodynamic profitability of its formation, lead to the predominance of the target product. The competition between the proposed mechanisms was studied in the case of catalytic centers represented by silver dimers. It was shown that activation barriers of reaction proceeding via NO dimer formation are lower than the corresponding barriers of the reaction with isocyanates involved, which confirms the prevalent realisation of the first process and the predominance of N2O among the final products. The obtained results explain the experimental data and are significant for further modelling of the mechanism of nitrogen oxides catalytic reduction considering the Al2O3 support.","PeriodicalId":17303,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Belarusian State University.
