Nuclear Data Sheets for A=31

Nuclear spectroscopic information for the known nuclides of mass 31 (F, Ne, Na, Mg, Al, Si, P, S, Cl, Ar) has been evaluated. A useful source of many of the Adopted Levels for {sup 31}P and {sup 31}S is presented in Endt's evaluations (1998En04,1990En08,1978En02,1973EnVA), however all the adopted properties of levels and gamma rays have been re-evaluated in this work. The data sets for reactions and decays, including all available gamma–ray data, are based mostly on the original literature. The 31Mg nuclide is a prime candidate for the study of ‘island-of-inversion’ as its ground state and first excited state can only be explained by intruder orbitals in a deformed shell-model approach. {sup 31}S is of importance in astrophysics rp-process as a possible ‘bottleneck’ nuclide. There are no data available for excited states in {sup 31}F, {sup 31}Ne and {sup 31}Ar. No gamma transitions are known in {sup 31}Cl. For {sup 31}Na, only one excited state is known. The radioactive decay characteristics of {sup 31}F and {sup 31}Ne isotopes have not yet been investigated. The {sup 31}S and {sup 31}Mg nuclei are currently being pursued intensively by various experimental groups, including recent work by Nuclear Astrophysics group at McMaster, the results of which will soon become available.

Structure-topology-property correlations of sodium phosphosilicate glasses

In this work, we investigate the correlations among structure, topology, and properties in a series of sodium phosphosilicate glasses with [SiO{sub 2}]/[SiO{sub 2} + P{sub 2}O{sub 5}] ranging from 0 to 1. The network structure is characterized by {sup 29}Si and {sup 31}P magic-angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance and Raman spectroscopy. The results show the formation of six-fold coordinated silicon species in phosphorous-rich glasses. Based on the structural data, we propose a formation mechanism of the six-fold coordinated silicon, which is used to develop a quantitative structural model for predicting the speciation of the network forming units as a function of chemical composition. The structural model is then used to establish a temperature-dependent constraint description of phosphosilicate glass topology that enables prediction of glass transition temperature, liquid fragility, and indentation hardness. The topological constraint model provides insight into structural origin of the mixed network former effect in phosphosilicate glasses.

Nano Sb{sub 2}O{sub 3} catalyzed green synthesis, cytotoxic activity, and molecular docking study of novel α-aminophosphonates

Green synthesis of a series of novel dialkyl (aryl substituted)(2-fluoro-4-((2-methylcarbamoyl)pyridine-4-yl)oxy)phenyl)amino)methyl)phosphonates is accomplished by a simple and an efficient one pot three component reaction of 3-(4-amino-3-fluorobenzyl)-N-methylbenzamide with different substituted aromatic aldehydes and dialkyl phosphite in the presence of nano Sb{sub 2}O{sub 3} catalyst under solvent free conditions at 40–50 °C to obtain the title compounds. Excellent isolated product yields are obtained (85–95%) with high purity within shorter reaction times (30–60 min). The title compounds are characterized by IR, {sup 1}H, {sup 13}C, {sup 31}P-NMR and mass spectral data. The synthesized compounds are screened for their anticell-proliferation activity on seven cell lines, Control cells–HEK293 (human embryonic kidney), DU-145 (human prostate adenocarcinoma), MCF-7 (human ER+/PR+/Her2− breast cancer), MDA-MB-231 (human ER−/PR−/Her2− breast cancer), Mia-Paca-2 (human pancreatic carcinoma), HeLa (human cervical cancer) cells as well as HepG2 (human hepatocellular carcinoma) cancer cell lines using Sulforhodamine B (SRB) assay method. Docking studies were carried out for all these synthesized compounds against topoisomerase-II by using Auto dock method. Doxorubicin was taken as standard. Compounds 4a, 4c, 4d, 4e, 4h, 4i, 4k, and 4l exhibited higher cytotoxic activity than the standard doxorubicin. .

Sulfur vacancies in photorefractive Sn{sub 2}P{sub 2}S{sub 6} crystals

A photoinduced electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectrum in single crystals of Sn{sub 2}P{sub 2}S{sub 6} (SPS) is assigned to an electron trapped at a sulfur vacancy. These vacancies are unintentionally present in undoped SPS crystals and are expected to play an important role in the photorefractive behavior of the material. Nonparamagnetic sulfur vacancies are formed during the initial growth of the crystal. Subsequent illumination below 100 K with 442 nm laser light easily converts these vacancies to EPR-active defects. The resulting S = 1/2 spectrum shows well-resolved and nearly isotropic hyperfine interactions with two P ions and two Sn ions. Partially resolved interactions with four additional neighboring Sn ions are also observed. Principal values of the g matrix are 1.9700, 1.8946, and 1.9006, with the corresponding principal axes along the a, b, and c directions in the crystal. The isotropic parts of the two primary {sup 31}P hyperfine interactions are 19.5 and 32.6 MHz and the isotropic parts of the two primary Sn hyperfine interactions are 860 and 1320 MHz (the latter values are each an average for {sup 117}Sn and {sup 119}Sn). These hyperfine results suggest that singly ionized sulfur vacancies have a diffuse wave function in SPS crystals, and thus are shallow donors. Before illumination, sulfur vacancies are in the doubly ionized charge state because of compensation by unidentified acceptors. They then trap an electron during illumination. The EPR spectrum from the sulfur vacancy is destroyed when a crystal is heated above 120 K in the dark and reappears when the crystal is illuminated again at low temperature.

2D {sup 31}P solid state NMR spectroscopy, electronic structure and thermochemistry of PbP{sub 7}

Phase pure polycrystalline PbP{sub 7} was prepared from the elements via a lead flux. Crystalline pieces with edge-lengths up to 1 mm were obtained. The assignment of the previously published {sup 31}P solid state NMR spectrum to the seven distinct crystallographic sites was accomplished by radio-frequency driven dipolar recoupling (RFDR) experiments. As commonly found in other solid polyphosphides there is no obvious correlation between the {sup 31}P chemical shift and structural parameters. PbP{sub 7} decomposes incongruently under release of phosphorus forming liquid lead as remainder. The thermal decomposition starts at T>550 K with a vapor pressure almost similar to that of red phosphorus. Electronic structure calculations reveal PbP{sub 7} as a semiconductor according to the Zintl description and clearly shows the stereo-active Pb-6s{sup 2} lone pairs in the electron localization function ELF. - Graphical abstract: Coordination of the lead atoms in PbP{sub 7}.

On phosphorus chemical shift anisotropy in metal (IV) phosphates and phosphonates: A 31 P NMR experimental study

The phosphorus chemical shift anisotropies, 31 PΔcs, and asymmetry parameters η were measured by the 31 P{ 1 H} NMR experiments in static and low-frequency spinning samples of the zirconium phosphates and phosphonates and also in the mixed Zr (IV)/Sn (IV) phosphate/phosphonate material. The data obtained have shown a 111 connectivity in the HPO 4 and PO 3 groups, which does not change at modification and intercalation of the materials. The 31 PΔcs values of the phosphonate groups (43–49 ppm) significantly surpass the values characterizing the HPO 4 groups (23–37 ppm). The 31 P Δcs values obtained for the metal (IV) phosphates were discussed in terms of P-O distances. Finally, the 31 P chemical shift anisotropy parameters can help at elucidation of local structures in phosphate and phosphonate materials.

The Emerging Role of 7 Tesla MRI in Musculoskeletal Imaging

Purpose of Review: To describe the emergent role of ultra-high field (UHF) MR with respect to musculoskeletal MRI applications. Recent Findings: With the recent US Federal Drug Administration (FDA) and European Union (EU) approval of ultra-high field (UHF) MRI below 8T for clinical use, and the availability of clinical 7T MRI systems, there is a rising interest in the potential clinical and research applications in musculoskeletal MRI. Summary: With increases in field strength and SNR gains resulting in sharper and higher spatial resolution MRI images, there is increasing interest in UHF MRI. Although there are challenges and limitations in UHF, there are many new and unique musculoskeletal MR applications that UHF excels at such as morphological imaging, bone micro-architecture evaluation, biochemical imaging techniques such gagCEST, UTE/ZTE, T{sub 2} mapping, T{sub 2}* mapping, T1ρ mapping, and multi-nuclear imaging and spectroscopy/imaging techniques with {sup 23}Na and {sup 31}P. The goal of this review is to highlight some of these recent findings in musculoskeletal MRI applications at UHF.

Population transfer HMQC for half-integer quadrupolar nuclei

This work presents a detailed analysis of a recently proposed nuclear magnetic resonance method [Wang et al., Chem. Commun. 49(59), 6653-6655 (2013)] for accelerating heteronuclear coherence transfers involving half-integer spin quadrupolar nuclei by manipulating their satellite transitions. This method, called Population Transfer Heteronuclear Multiple Quantum Correlation (PT-HMQC), is investigated in details by combining theoretical analyses, numerical simulations, and experimental investigations. We find that compared to instant inversion or instant saturation, continuous saturation is the most practical strategy to accelerate coherence transfers on half-integer quadrupolar nuclei. We further demonstrate that this strategy is efficient to enhance the sensitivity of J-mediated heteronuclear correlation experiments between two half-integer quadrupolar isotopes (e.g., {sup 27}Al-{sup 17}O). In this case, the build-up is strongly affected by relaxation for small T{sub 2}′ and J coupling values, and shortening the mixing time makes a huge signal enhancement. Moreover, this concept of population transfer can also be applied to dipolar-mediated HMQC experiments. Indeed, on the AlPO{sub 4}-14 sample, one still observes experimentally a 2-fold shortening of the optimum mixing time albeit with no significant signal gain in the {sup 31}P-({sup 27}Al) experiments.

Phase equilibria in the NaF-CdO-NaPO{sub 3} system at 873 K and crystal structure and physico-chemical characterizations of the new Na{sub 2}CdPO{sub 4}F fluorophosphate

Isothermal sections of the diagram representing phase relationships in the NaF-CdO-NaPO{sub 3} system have been investigated by solid state reactions and powder X-ray diffraction. This phase diagram investigation confirms the polymorphism of the NaCdPO{sub 4} side component and the structure of the ß high temperature polymorph (orthorhombic, space group Pnma and unit cell parameters a=9.3118(2), b=7.0459(1), c=5.1849(1) Å has been refined. A new fluorophosphate, Na{sub 2}CdPO{sub 4}F, has been discovered and its crystal structure determined and refined from powder X-ray diffraction data. It exhibits a new 3D structure with orthorhombic symmetry, space group Pnma and unit cell parameters a=5.3731(1), b=6.8530(1), c=12.2691(2) Å. The structure is closely related to those of the high temperature polymorph of the nacaphite Na{sub 2}CaPO{sub 4}F and the fluorosilicate Ca{sub 2}NaSiO{sub 4}F but differs essentially in the cationic repartition since the structure is fully ordered with one Na site (8d) and one Cd site (4c). Relationships with other Na{sub 2}M{sup II}PO{sub 4}F (M{sup II}=Mg, Ca, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni) have been examined and the crystal-chemical and topographical analysis of these fluorophosphates is briefly reviewed.

Crystallinity and compositional changes in carbonated apatites: Evidence from {sup 31}P solid-state NMR, Raman, and AFM analysis

Solid-state (magic-angle spinning) NMR spectroscopy is a useful tool for obtaining structural information on bone organic and mineral components and synthetic model minerals at the atomic-level. Raman and {sup 31}P NMR spectral parameters were investigated in a series of synthetic B-type carbonated apatites (CAps). Inverse {sup 31}P NMR linewidth and inverse Raman PO{sub 4}{sup 3−}ν{sub 1} bandwidth were both correlated with powder XRD c-axis crystallinity over the 0.3–10.3 wt% CO{sub 3}{sup 2−} range investigated. Comparison with bone powder crystallinities showed agreement with values predicted by NMR and Raman calibration curves. Carbonate content was divided into two domains by the {sup 31}P NMR chemical shift frequency and the Raman phosphate ν{sub 1} band position. These parameters remain stable except for an abrupt transition at 6.5 wt% carbonate, a composition which corresponds to an average of one carbonate per unit cell. This near-binary distribution of spectroscopic properties was also found in AFM-measured particle sizes and Ca/P molar ratios by elemental analysis. We propose that this transition differentiates between two charge-balancing ion-loss mechanisms as measured by Ca/P ratios. These results define a criterion for spectroscopic characterization of B-type carbonate substitution in apatitic minerals. - Graphical abstract: Carbonated apatite shows an abrupt change in spectral (NMR, Raman) and morphological (AFM) properties at a composition of about one carbonate substitution per unit cell. Display Omitted - Highlights: • Crystallinity (XRD), particle size (AFM) of carbonated apatites and bone mineral. • Linear relationships among crystallinity, {sup 31}P NMR and Raman inverse bandwidths. • Low and high carbonated apatites use different charge-balancing ion-loss mechanism.

Dynamics of asymmetric binary glass formers. II. Results from nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy

Various {sup 2}H and {sup 31}P nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy techniques are applied to probe the component dynamics of the binary glass former tripropyl phosphate (TPP)/polystyrene-d{sub 3} (PS) over the full concentration range. The results are quantitatively compared to those of a dielectric spectroscopy (DS) study on the same system previously published [R. Kahlau, D. Bock, B. Schmidtke, and E. A. Rössler, J. Chem. Phys. 140, 044509 (2014)]. While the PS dynamics does not significantly change in the mixtures compared to that of neat PS, two fractions of TPP molecules are identified, one joining the glass transition of PS in the mixture (α{sub 1}-process), the second reorienting isotropically (α{sub 2}-process) even in the rigid matrix of PS, although at low concentration resembling a secondary process regarding its manifestation in the DS spectra. Pronounced dynamical heterogeneities are found for the TPP α{sub 2}-process, showing up in extremely stretched, quasi-logarithmic stimulated echo decays. While the time window of NMR is insufficient for recording the full correlation functions, DS results, covering a larger dynamical range, provide a satisfactory interpolation of the NMR data. Two-dimensional {sup 31}P NMR spectra prove exchange within the broadly distributed α{sub 2}-process. As demonstrated by {sup 2}H NMR, the PS matrix reflects the faster α{sub 2}-process of TPP by performing a spatially highly hindered motion on the same timescale.

Dynamics of asymmetric binary glass formers. I. A dielectric and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy study

Dielectric spectroscopy as well as {sup 2}H and {sup 31}P nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR) are applied to probe the component dynamics of the binary glass former tripropyl phosphate (TPP)/polystyrene (PS/PS-d{sub 3}) in the full concentration (c{sub TPP}) range. In addition, depolarized light scattering and differential scanning calorimetry experiments are performed. Two glass transition temperatures are found: T{sub g1}(c{sub TPP}) reflects PS dynamics and shows a monotonic plasticizer effect, while the lower T{sub g2}(c{sub TPP}) exhibits a maximum and is attributed to (faster) TPP dynamics, occurring in a slowly moving or immobilized PS matrix. Dielectric spectroscopy probing solely TPP identifies two different time scales, which are attributed to two sub-ensembles. One of them, again, shows fast TPP dynamics (α{sub 2}-process), the other (α{sub 1}-process) displays time constants identical with those of the slow PS matrix. Upon heating the α{sub 1}-fraction of TPP decreases until above some temperature T{sub c} only a single α{sub 2}-population exists. Inversely, below T{sub c} a fraction of the TPP molecules is trapped by the PS matrix. At low c{sub TPP} the α{sub 2}-relaxation does not follow frequency-temperature superposition (FTS), instead it is governed by a temperature independent distribution of activation energies leading to correlation times which follow Arrhenius laws, i.e., the α{sub 2}-relaxation resembles a secondary process. Yet, {sup 31}P NMR demonstrates that it involves isotropic reorientations of TPP molecules within a slowly moving or rigid matrix of PS. At high c{sub TPP} the super-Arrhenius temperature dependence of τ{sub 2}(T), as well as FTS are recovered, known as typical of the glass transition in neat systems.
