The effect of temperature on blueberry drying rate, shrinkage, and color changes was evaluated from drying experiments for both high bush (Vaccinium corymbosum L.) and wild (Vaccinium angustifolium) blueberries. Drying temperature significantly affected texture and color of both varieties. Temperatures above 55°C caused a significant color change (ΔE > 25) within 30 min of the beginning of drying, followed by a significant drop in density from 1.02 to 0.38 g/cm3. In contrast, drying at temperatures below 50°C resulted in nonsignificant color changes and an eventual density increase to 1.26 g/cm3. It follows that blueberry color could be used as an early stage indicator of quality degradation in the process of drying. 相似文献
6‐Amino‐6‐deoxy‐5,6‐di‐ N ‐( N ′‐octyliminomethylidene)nojirimycin , a reducing analogue of N‐nonyl‐1‐deoxynojirimycin, proved to be a potent and very selective inhibitor of β‐glucosidases, including human acid β‐glucosidase. Structural studies of the enzyme–inhibitor complex showed a binding mode in which the anomeric hydroxy group is accommodated in the “wrong” α configuration.
The energetic material, 3‐nitro‐1,5‐bis(4,4′‐dimethyl azide)‐1,2,3‐triazolyl‐3‐azapentane (NDTAP), was firstly synthesized by means of Click Chemistry using 1,5‐diazido‐3‐nitrazapentane as main material. The structure of NDTAP was confirmed by IR, 1H NMR, and 13C NMR spectroscopy; mass spectrometry, and elemental analysis. The crystal structure of NDTAP was determined by X‐ray diffraction. It belongs to monoclinic system, space group C2/c with crystal parameters a=1.7285(8) nm, b=0.6061(3) nm, c=1.6712(8) nm, β=104.846(8)°, V=1.6924(13) nm3, Z=8, μ=0.109 mm−1, F(000)=752, and Dc=1.422 g cm−3. The thermal behavior and non‐isothermal decomposition kinetics of NDTAP were studied with DSC and TG‐DTG methods. The self‐accelerating decomposition temperature and critical temperature of thermal explosion are 195.5 and 208.2 °C, respectively. NDTAP presents good thermal stability and is insensitive. 相似文献
In order to evaluate 2,4,6‐trinitro‐1,3,5‐triazine (TNTAz), 3,6‐dinitro‐1,2,4,5‐tetrazine (DNTAz), and 2,5,8‐trinitro‐tri‐s‐triazine (TNTsTAz), the geometries of these compounds have been fully optimized employing the B3LYP density functional method and the AUG‐cc‐pVDZ basis set. The accurate gas phase enthalpies of formation have been obtained by using the atomization procedure and designing isodesmic reactions in which the parent rings are not destroyed. Based on B3LYP/AUG‐cc‐pVDZ calculated geometries and natural charges, the crystal structures have been predicted using the Karfunkel–Gdanitz method. Computed results show that there exists extended conjugation over the parent rings of these compounds. More energy content is reserved in DNTAz than in both TNTAz and TNTsTAz. The title compounds are much more sensitive than 1,3,5‐trinitrobenzene. The calculated detonation velocity of DNTAz reaches 9.73–9.88 km s−1, being larger than those of CL‐20 and TNTAz. TNTsTAz has no advantage over the widely used energetic compounds such as RDX and HMX. 相似文献
Ten 5‐(substituted phenylazo)‐3‐cyano‐1‐ethyl‐6‐hydroxy‐4‐methyl‐2‐pyridones were studied (five new compounds) to provide insight into the electronic effects of diverse substituents located at different positions in their phenyl moieties. The structural features of these dyes were examined by combining experimental and theoretical approaches. The crystal structures of two derivatives were revealed by X‐ray crystallography and diverse packing modes owing to different intermolecular interactions (π–π stacking and lone pair–π interactions, as well as hydrogen bonds) were found. A study on lattice energy and energy related to the molecular pairs obtained from their crystal packing was performed. The tautomerism and ionisation of the dyes in ethanol or N,N ‐dimethylformamide solution were rationalised in terms of diazo component substitution pattern. 相似文献
In accordance with a novel strategy for generating the 2‐benzazepine scaffold by connecting C6–C1 and C3–N building blocks, a set of 5‐phenylsulfanyl‐ and 5‐benzyl‐substituted tetrahydro‐2‐benzazepines was synthesized and pharmacologically evaluated. Key steps of the synthesis were the Heck reaction, the Stetter reaction, a reductive cyclization, and the introduction of diverse N substituents at the end of the synthesis. High σ1 affinity was achieved for 2‐benzazepines with linear or branched alk(en)yl residues containing at least an n‐butyl substructure. The butyl‐ and 4‐fluorobenzyl‐substituted derivatives, (±)‐5‐benzyl‐2‐butyl‐2,3,4,5‐tetrahydro‐1H‐2‐benzazepine ( 19 b ) and (±)‐5‐benzyl‐2‐(4‐fluorobenzyl)‐2,3,4,5‐tetrahydro‐1H‐2‐benzazepine ( 19 m ), show high selectivity over more than 50 other relevant targets, including the σ2 subtype and various binding sites of the N‐methyl‐D ‐aspartate (NMDA) receptor. In the Irwin screen, 19 b and 19 m showed clean profiles without inducing considerable side effects. Compounds 19 b and 19 m did not reveal significant analgesic and cognition‐enhancing activity. Compound 19 m did not have any antidepressant‐like effects in mice. 相似文献
