ESR analysis

The temperature dependences of the linewidths for both lines are presented on Fig. 7.7. The considerable broadening of resonance lines with the lowering of temperature below 100 K is observed. 

Another important ESR parameter is the integral intensity, 7, defined as the area under the ESR absorption curve. In the 

The comparative analysis of the integral intensities has shown that the intensity of signal B is about 8% of the intensity of signal A. Thus, considering the broad resonance line as the main signal, the parameters of line A have been discussed first 

The high-temperature value of g-factor 1.99 0.03 is close to the g-factor of Mn + ion in octahedral crystal field. - This result is consistent with the structural data of Li2Mn2(Mo04)3 according to which the manganese ions reside in octahedral coordination of oxygen ions. 

This value is considerably larger than the experimentally calculated value AHpp = 86 mT. It is because of exchange interaction between Mn + ions that narrows the dipole-broadened resonance line, which occurs in Li2Mn2(Mo04)3. In this case, the ESR linewidth can be roughly estimated by following expression

Exposure of naphthalene dissolved in liquid ammonia to europium metal immediately results in the characteristic green color of naphthalene anion-radical. ESR analysis reveals a signal that comes from an unpaired electron interacting with Eu and Eu nuclei. No hyperfine coupling with naphthalene protons is observed, although treatment with water leads to 1,4-dihydronaphthalene (Stevenson et al. 1999). This means that naphthalene has indeed been reduced to its anion-radical and undergone a normal Birch reaction. These results are consistent with the initial donation of two...

Unsupported V2Os—Mo03 catalysts were also studied by Bielanski and Ingolt [49,50], using an integral flow reactor at 350° C. Several hours of pre-treatment with the reaction mixture were needed to obtain a stable and selective catalyst (the catalyst was prepared from a melt instead of by the usual co-precipitation method). In this period, partial reduction and formation of V4+ (ESR analysis) take place. The activity increases with the actual V4+ concentration in the working catalyst (Fig. 7) until a 100%... 

H2(Pc) and M(Pc) take one of the three forms, a, / and y, in the solid state depending on their method of preparation.197 These forms are crystallographically different and spectroscopically distinguishable. In solution, they associate to dimers through Pc-Pc (7t) interactions with -Kassoe K 102-106M 1.198 A metal-metal distance of 4.5 A has been estimated by ESR analysis.

Heterocyclic substrates in SET processes have been widely studied, including the reactions of diliydroiiicotiiiamide,116 pyridine, and quinoline117 and also phenoxazine and phenotiiiazines.118 Phenothiazine has also been shown by ESR analysis to undergo an electron-transfer reaction witii its radical cation with an appreciable 15N/14N isotope effect.119 The reaction of phenazine di-A -oxidc radical cations with hydrocarbons shows evidence of non-radical processes.120... 

Dodecamethylcyclohexasilane gives a radical anion when treated with sodium-potassium alloy in dimethoxyethane-tetrahydrofuran at — 95° C (86). By ESR analysis, it was concluded that the unpaired electron is delocalized equally over all six silicon atoms and so contacts equally all of the protons on the 12 methyl groups of the molecule. Recently, similar radical anions [Si(CH3)2]5T and [Si(CH3)2]7T have been obtained from the five- and seven-membered ring cyclopolysilanes (21,205a). 

The ethyl radical formed during the dealkylation process was trapped using 2-methyl-2-nitrosopropane to form tert-butylethylnitroxide 34, where the coupling constants and g-factors of the trapped species measured by electron spin resonance (ESR) analysis matched the literature values for ferZ-butylcthylnitroxidc 34 exactly. 

Based on the C1 V ratio and ESR analysis, Frickc et al. [25] have shown that depending on the pretreat-ment temperature of the silica (523, 873, 1073K), VCI4... 

To obtain monomer and polymer radicals of concentrations large enough for ESR analysis 10 6M) the intiation rate must be much faster than in conventional polymerizations. In the initiating system of Ti(III)-H202, the rate of initiation was estimated to be 10 2 mole/ liter/sec. 

Free radicals can be detected by direct ESR (room temperature and low temperature) and spin trapping. Room-temperature ESR measurements in heart tissues are not feasible using conventional ESR because of the high electric constant of water, which is a major component of heart tissues. Therefore, one is forced to use low-temperature ESR measurements for heart tissues. An apparent drawback with low-temperature ESR, especially as it relates to detecting free radicals, is that the frozen tissue must be mechanically processed prior to ESR analysis. This has caused a considerable amount of confusion and erroneous conclusions in the myocardial free radical literature, as will be discussed below. 

Because of their instability in aqueous solution, PBN adducts have been generally extracted in organic solvents prior to ESR analysis. A number of investigators [93,95,104-110] have used this extraction procedure in various models of myocardial ischemia and reperfusion. Table 3 shows the list of... 

Complete blood cell count with differential In cases of uveitis a complete blood cell coimt can help identify an underlying bacterial or viral etiology based on the white cell differential. Additionally, this test may assist in the detection of a white blood cell malignancy, such as leukemia or lymphoma. A complete blood cell count should also accompany an erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) analysis, because the complete blood cell count identifies anemia that may affect the results of the ESR. 

Figure 2. ESR analysis. If one assumed one radical generated for every alkali metal consumea, there is at least a factor of 140 too few radicals. In most cases there is no change in radical density following the reductive step of the Sternberg procedure.

ESR analysis of Mh-SPS and Cu-SPS showed that in the bulk the cations are primarily associated. In solution the ratio between associated and isolated cations depends on the polarity of the solvent. The more polar the solvent, the greater is the extent of isolation of the cation. 

Scheme 6.15) [27]. Meanwhile, the intermediate radical (75) produced from 2 -deoxy-2 -fluoromethylene nucleoside (74) would be hydrogenated again via 76 to 77, which would undergo dehydrofluorination leading to the a, (3-unsaturated cyclopentenone system (78). The enone form (78) is reactive enough to trap a thiol group on the enzyme, resulting in the dead end to the DNA synthesis system [28]. The existence of the radical intermediates was clarified by detailed ESR analysis.
