Graphite-furnace atomic absorption spectrometric determination of lead, cadmium, cobalt and nickel in infant formulas and evaporated milks after nitric-perchloric acid digestion and coprecipitation with ammonium pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate.

A graphite-furnace atomic absorption method, developed for lead and cadmium, was modified to enable simultaneous determination of lead, cadmium, cobalt and nickel in infant formulas and evaporated milks. The method was assessed on the basis of analytical quality assurance results during routine analysis of samples. Detection limits (ng g-1 based on 10 g sample size for ready-to-use formulas) were 0.04-0.21 for lead, 0.004-0.015 for cadmium, 0.04-0.2 for cobalt and 0.06-0.26 for nickel. Within-series repeatability and day-to-day reproducibility (among series) coefficients of variation (CVs) were, respectively, 11.7 and 16% for lead, 2.5 and 7.5% for cadmium, 7.2 and 18.8%for cobalt, and 8.1 and 8.6% for nickel at respective concentrations of 1.89, 0.40, 1.25 and 11.8 ng g-1.

Stabilization of DNA-polycation complex by lithium perchlorate.

The polycation forms a complex with DNA. The complex was stabilized to thermal denaturation by millimolar concentrations of LiClO4, in the range of 0.1-0.10 M LiClO4. No hyperchromicity was observed in the thermal profiles, and instead, hyperchromicity was observed. The complex showed no significant extrinsic CD band, but showed LiClO4-dependent alterations in the DNA intrinsic bands. It was found that Li+ was primarily responsible for the stabilization of the complex. It is proposed that Li+ stabilization arises through ternary complex formation and that the chaotropic ClO4- catalyzes conversion of less stable DNA-polycation complex into a more stable form.

Infrared (attenuated total reflection) study of propylene carbonate solutions containing lithium and sodium perchlorate.

Attenuated total reflection infrared spectroscopy was used to examine the concentration dependent solvation of LiClO4 and NaClO4 electrolytes in propylene carbonate (PC). Factor analysis and curve fitting techniques were performed on the measured spectra and the results compared with ab initio computations to provide evidence for ion-solvent solution geometries. Factor analysis of the measured data allowed the identification of the spectrum of ion-associated PC that is uniquely different from the self-associated PC spectrum. The results indicate Li+ and ClO4- ions are contact ion-paired even at relatively low electrolyte concentrations whereas Na+ and ClO4- ions are not, up to approximately 2 mol dm-3.

Structural and spectroscopic properties of trans-difluoro(1,4,8,12-tetraazacyclopentadecane)chromium(III) perchlorate hydrate.

The structure of [CrF(2)([15]aneN(4))]ClO(4).H(2)O ([15]aneN(4)=1,4,8,12-tetraazacyclopentadecane) has been determined by a single-crystal X-ray diffraction study at 173 K. The complex crystallizes in the space group P1- of the triclinic system with two mononuclear formula units in a cell of dimensions a=9.6117(7) A, b=10.2882(7) A, c=11.0001(7) A and alpha=99.7570(10) degrees, beta=105.6080(10) degrees and gamma=113.7130(10) degrees. The complex cation unit has its central Cr atom in an octahedral coordination with four nitrogen atoms and two fluorine atoms in a trans position. Three six-membered and one five-membered chelate rings of the [15]aneN(4) ligand are in a chair-twist(skew)-chair-gauche conformation sequence. The gauche five-membered ring is disordered with the twist six-membered ring opposite. The four H atoms in the chiral N atoms have the trans-II (CTCg) type configuration. The mean Cr-N and Cr-F bonds are 2.095(2) and 1.8752(13) A, respectively. The IR and visible spectral properties are consistent with the result of X-ray crystallography. The resolved band maxima of the electronic d-d spectrum are fitted with secular determinant for quartet state energy of d(3) configuration in tetragonal field including configurational but neglecting spin-orbit coupling. It is confirmed that the fluoride has strong sigma- and pi-donor properties toward the chromium(III) ion and the nitrogen atoms of the [15]aneN(4) ligand also have a strong sigma-donor character.
