Hence, viscometric, refractrometric and interferometric measurements of recently synthesized compound have been investigated at 25°C in 60% dioxane-water system at various concentrations. The results obtained in these studies evi- dently explain polarizability, mutual compensation of dipoles and solute-solvent interactions. The values of acoustic pa- rameters are useful for cross justification of solute-solvent interactions. These results are most indispensable for knowing the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of any drug. An absorption, transmission, metabolism and excretion of any drug depend on solute-solvent, solute-solute-solvent and solute-solvent-solvent interactions, taking all these things into consideration this research work was carried out.","PeriodicalId":250297,"journal":{"name":"The Open Physical Chemistry Journal","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-01-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129889097","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is stressed that conventional gas chromatographic equipment and procedures (that are so effective for the detection of molecules) are ineffective, if not misleading, for the detection of the new species of magnecules, thus explaining the protracted lack of general detection of mag-necules and the need for specialized equipment and procedures. The paper ends with the indication of the environmental advantages of fuels with Santillimagnecular structure due to the general lack of contaminants in the exhaust.

Freshly prepared POAP film electrodes were firstly deactivated by interaction with a ferric cation solution and then, they were reactivated by treatment with an alkaline solution. Cyclic Voltammetry (CV) and Sur- face Resistance (SR) measurements were performed to analyze if after consecutive deactivation and reactivation proc- esses, the redox sites distribution (distance between adjacent redox sites) of POAP remained unaltered. By comparing with the resistance response of a freshly prepared POAP film, an attenuation of the gold film resistance within the poten- tial region of maximal electroactivity of POAP was observed after polymer deactivation. This attenuated resistance change was attributed to the creation of polymer inactive zones at the gold film-POAP film interface. Thus, deactivated POAP films exhibit a redox sites distribution with larger distances between active redox sites, as compared with that pre- sent at a gold film surface contacting a non-deactivated poly(o-aminophenol) film. Surface Resistance also showed that while the redox sites distribution of a POAP film with a low degree of deactivation ( c < 0.4), can be recovered without distortion, the redox sites distribution of a POAP film with a degree of deactivation higher than 0.4, suffers a irreversible distortion, which remains even after reactivation by alkaline treatment. This work can be interesting from the practical viewpoint, because conducting properties of POAP, which are associated to the electron hopping process between adja- cent redox sites, should remain substantially unchanged before and after the polymer has been used. In this regard, the re- sults of this work show the restrictive stability conditions of POAP.","PeriodicalId":250297,"journal":{"name":"The Open Physical Chemistry Journal","volume":"53 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-04-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133464291","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Equlibrium structures and heats of formation were calculated with the semiempirical quantum chemical method RHF/PM3 for the doubly oxidized forms. All-cisoid planar structural variants of the form An1Qn2An3 were considered, where A and Q are thiophene monomer units in aromatic and quinoidal chain segments, respectively. The types of segments were determined from their bond-length pattern. At this level of theory, di- verse structures combining both types of segments were found stable. The so-called \"response equation based quantitative structure-property relationship\" (REQ-QSPR) method, recently pro- posed by Fishtik et al. was used to perform and interpret regression data analysis. The REQ-based approach rationalizes mathematical treatment of stoichiometric equations. It provides a simple concept for breaking down a dataset for heat of formation into linear combination of terms that are easy to interpret in the framework of chemical groups. REQ-QSPR in- cludes arbitrary structural descriptors rather than being restricted to using only the number of chemical constituents. Ap- plied to our system, it is demonstrated that modelling nonlinear effects becomes possible as well. Supra-linear dependence of the energy with respect to the bipolaron localization length is indicated by REQ-QSPR, and detailed analysis suggests specific further calculations to carry out for improving the model.","PeriodicalId":250297,"journal":{"name":"The Open Physical Chemistry Journal","volume":"117 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-03-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115376970","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
