A more efflcleint and tlme-savlng synthetic route to sllicalmmoblllzed 8-quinolinol has been developed that results In a product exhibltlng a relatively large exchange capacity. A comparison of dlfferent sllica supports has been performed and the resulting slllca-bound 8-qulnolinol materlals have been characterized with regard to exchange capaclty, carbon content, acid-base properties, and stablllty. The dependence of capaclty on surface area and pore size Is dlscussed and a comparison i o conventionally prepared silica-lmmoblllzed 8-qulnolinols is made. A posslble explanatlon of apparent discrepancies in the heterogeneous acid dissoclatlon constants of slllca-immoblllzed 8-qulnollnol Is also proposed.
Carbon dioxide significantly enhances the chemiluminescence of 5-amino-2,3-dihydrophthalazine-1,4-dione (luminol) in the absence of added oxidant. The effect in presence of a variety of rate modifiers (e.g., metal ions and some metal ion complexes) is described in detail. A postulation of the species responsible for enhancement, the role of dissolved oxygen, the influence of the form in which the rate modifier is present and a possible mechanism to explain the enhancement by C02 (g), are also presented. The potential analytical applications of this effect are mentioned and illustrated with the analytical figures of merit for the chemiluminescence determination of Col* in the 5 x 10-13-10-7 moll-1 range.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
