Nitric acid-organic mixtures surveyed for use in separation by anion exchange methods

Column elution-spectrographic analysis technique compares certain solvents directly to the methanol system, using inert rare earths instead of actinides. Distribution ratios for americium between 90 percent solvent, 10 percent 5 M nitric acid and Dowex 1 nitrate form resin for a large group of organics miscible in water was determined.

Separation of 'Uncharged' Oligodeoxynucleotide Analogs by Anion-Exchange Chromatography at High pH

Ion-exchange chromatography is a well-established method for the analysis and purification of phosphodiester-linked oligonucleotides. If elution is carried out under alkaline conditions, the secondary structure of G- and C-rich oligomers is disrupted. Furthermore, elution times become more sensitive to the G and T content of the oligomer, because G and T are deprotonated at pH 10. In recent work on peptide-nucleic acids (PNAs) we noted that mixtures of PNA oligomers G(sub 4), G(sub 6), G(sub 8), and G9(sub 10) are readily separated by elution at pH 12 on an RPC-5 column. Here we show that this separation method is more generally applicable.

The Ozonide Anion: A Theoretical Study

Complete active space self-consistent field (CASSCF) and CASSCF second order perturbation theory (CASPT2) methods have been used for the geometry optimization and calculation of harmonic and fundamental frequencies of the ozonide ion O3(-) and the ozonide lithium complex Li(+)O3(-). For O3(-) harmonic frequencies have also been obtained using the coupled-cluster method, CCSD(T). Infrared intensities are computed from dipole moment derivatives at the CASSCF level. The predicted equilibrium geometry for O3(-) is: Roo = 1.361 Angstroms and angle ooo = 115.4 degrees, and the fundamental frequencies are: nu(sub 1) = 989 per centimeter, nu(sub 2) 556 per centimeter, nu(sub 3) = 870 per centimeter (experimental values are: Roo =1.36 plus or minus 0.02 Angstroms, angle (ooo) = 111.8 plus or minus 2.0 degrees, nu(sub 1) = 975(50) per centimeter, nu(sub 2) = 550(50) per centimeter, nu(sub 3) = 880(50) per centimeter). Corresponding data for the lithium ozonide complex have also been obtained. The presented data contradict the previous interpretation of the IR and Raman spectrum obtained after deposition of ozone in N2, argon, or neon matrices with atomic beams of alkali metals. The presence of the lithium cation raises the asymmetric stretch frequency to about 940 per centimeter, which is contradictory to assumptions made in the assignments of the matrix spectra. Calculations made in a dielectric medium strongly suggest that the effect of the matrix on the IR spectrum is small for O3(-) itself. The dissociation and atomization energies of O3(-) are found to be in agreement with experiment.
