Humic acids show quite different complexation capacities an conditional formation constants with the REEs. Apparently there are two types of binding sites in the functional groups of humic acid, in which the first binding sites have stronger ability than the second. Cerium shows the largest complexation capacities and highest formation constants among the four REEs with two humic acids, this anomaly may be relative to the distribution pattern of the REEs in seawater. The experimental results were comparable to the values of other metals reported and provided the basic data for environmental geochemistry of rare earth elements.展开更多
A fluorescent Ni（II） complex 1, [Ni（OH-H2Bdc）（Bibimp）]n·nH2O, constructed with 5-hydroxyisophthalic acid（OH-H2Bdc） and 2,6-bis（2-benzimidazolyl）pyridine）（Bibimp） has been synthesized by hydrothermal ...A fluorescent Ni（II） complex 1, [Ni（OH-H2Bdc）（Bibimp）]n·nH2O, constructed with 5-hydroxyisophthalic acid（OH-H2Bdc） and 2,6-bis（2-benzimidazolyl）pyridine）（Bibimp） has been synthesized by hydrothermal methods and structurally characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy, TG/DTG, fluorescence spectrum and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The title complex crystallizes in triclinic system, space group P1 with a = 10.187（2）, b = 10.273（2）, c = 13.401（3）A, α = 69.65（3）, β = 69.66（3）, γ = 70.61（3）°, V = 1196.8（4） A3, and Z = 2. The adjacent chains of complex 1 are stacked offset with respect to each other in an ABAB fashion by van der Waals interactions, and only a weak interlayer nonclassical C–H…O hydrogen bond has been observed. Complex 1 displays strong blue fluorescent emissions at 483 nm in the solid state upon photo-excitation at 365 nm at room temperature.展开更多

A notion of behavioural entropy and hysteresis is introduced as two different forms of compound measures. These measures provide clinically applicable complexity analysis of behavioural patterns yielding scalar characterisation of time-varying behaviours registered over an extended period of time. The behavioural data are obtained using body attached sensors providing non-invasive readings of heart rate, skin blood perfusion, blood oxygenation, skin temperature, movement and steps frequency. The results using compound measures of behavioural patterns of fifteen healthy individuals are presented. The application of the compound measures is shown to correlate with complexity analysis. The correlation is demonstrated using two healthy subjects compared against a control group. This indicates a possibility to use these measures in place of fractional dimensions to provide a finer characterisation of behavioural patterns observed using sensory data acquired over a long period of time.展开更多
