(Received 22 March 2002)
The regioselectivity of the reaction of conjugate addition of thiols, amines, methanol and hydrogen chloride with the monoalkyl-1,4-benzoquinones avarone and 2-tert-butyl-1,4-benzoquinone was investigated. It was shown that the regioselectivity of the reaction is influenced by the electrophilicity of position 5 in unprotonated 2-alkylquinones, the increased electrophilicity of position 6 in acidic medium, and by the acidity of the intermediate hydroquinones.
 
Keywords: quinone, avarone, conjugate addition, regioselectivity.

(Received 11 April 2002)
Abstract: In a search for source rocks of the crude oils of the Drmno depression (southern part of the Pannonian Basin, Serbia), based on bulk and specific organic geochemical parameters, six out of eight Sirakovo, Bubu{inac and Bradarac sedimentary core samples were found to possess typical source rock characteristics. By comparing the results observed for these sedimentary samples with the corresponding properties of the crude oils from the Sirakovo and Bradarac oil-gas fields, a positive organic geochemical oil-source rock correlation was experienced for the first time within this basin. This finding may be considered as an important step towards the ultimate organic geochemical/geological interpretation of the Drmno depression.
 
Keywords: source rocks, crude oils, Drmno depression, organic geochemical correlation, biological markers.

(Received 12 February 2002)
An acid phosphatase from an extract of mugwort (Artemisia vulgaris) pollen was purified by a factor of 48 by a combination of ion exchange and gel-chromatography. The molecular weights of the enzyme were 76 kDa and 73 kDa, determined by gel filtration on a Sephadex G-100 sf column and by SDS PAGE (under reducing and non-reducing conditions), respectively. In analytical isoelectrofocusing, the enzyme appears as two very close bands, pI at about 4.2. The optimum pH for the enzyme is 5.4. The apparent Km for p-nitrophenyl phosphate was estimated to be 0.16 mM. The purified enzyme has broad specificity, and hydrolyses p-nitrophenyl phosphate and a-naphthyl phosphate. Pyrophosphate and O-phospho-L-tyrosine were estimated to be the best substrates for this enzyme as potential in vivo substrates. The enzyme is inhibited competitively by phosphate (Ki = 1.25 mM), molybdate (Ki = 0.055 mM) and pyrophosphate (Ki = 6.7 mM) and non-competitively by fluoride (Ki = 9.8 mM). Metal ions such as Hg2+, Cu2+ and Zn2+ express an inhibitory effect on the enzyme, while the enzyme is slightly activated by non-ionic detergents, Tween 20 and Triton X-100. There is no change in the enzyme activity in the presence of tartrate, citrate, EDTA, 1,10-phenanthroline and sulfhydryl-group modifiers such as p-chloromercuribenzoate and N-ethylmaleimide.
 
Keywords: acid phosphatase, Artemisia vulgaris, Compositae, mugwort, pollen, purification.

(Received 8 March 2002)
Abstract: A new procedure for the aggregation of human albumin and 99mTc-labelling of the prepared macroaggregated albumin are presented. Simple methods for quantifying of all the radiochemical impurities existing in 99mTc-MAA were tested. Thus, 85 % methanol was used as the mobile phase in paper and ITL chromatography with Whatman Noo 1 and ITLC-SA strips. A system of two solvents (acetone and 1 M NaCl or 0.9 % NaCl) was used for 3 MM paper, ITLC-SA and ITLC-SG strips and silica gel plates as the stationary phase. Low-voltage paper electrophoresis with Whatman 3 MM paper sheets soaked in barbiturate buffer and the gel chromatography column method (Sephadex G-25) were also applied. Filtration through syringe filters, proposed by European and Yugoslav Pharmacopoeia, was performed for comparison. The application of the mentioned tests lead to consistent results for the labelling efficiency (> 98.5 %) and percent radiochemical impurities of 99mTc-MAA. Determination of the particles number in a counter chamber and their size distribution under a light microscope with a calibrated ocular scale gave the result of 300000 –350000 particles per 1 mg of HA. This confirmed that the human albumin macroaggregates prepared by our new procedure is remarkably improved and convenient for routine diagnostic purposes.
 
Keywords: human albumin macroaggregates, 99mTc-labelling, quality control.

The excess molar volume VE of the binary liquid systems acetonitrile + methanol and acetonitrile + ethanol has been evaluated from density measurements at 298.15 K and at atmospheric pressure over the entire composition range. A vibrating tube densimeter, type Anton Paar DMA 55, was applied for these measurements. The Redlich–Kister equation was used to fit the experimental VE data.
 
Keywords: density measurements, excess volume, methanol, ethanol, acetonitrile.

(Received 18 February, revised 29 May 2002)
Mosses are biomonitors that accumulate large amounts of various pollutants, including radionuclides. In this work we investigated the possibility of 137Cs extraction from mosses, as well as the significance of species specificity on the efficiency of 137Cs desorption. Salt and acid solutions were used as extraction media. It was shown that a 5 % solution of both ammonium oxalate and phosphoric acid was able to desorb 81.8 % of 137Cs+ from Homalothecium sericeum, which was 39.9 % more than desorption from water. At the same time, most of the desorbed 137Cs+ was incorporated in crystals that precipitated from the solution. An interspecies difference in respect to 137Cs+ desorption was noticed.
 
Keywords: moss, 137Cs+, extraction.

(Received 12 December 2001, revised 22 April 2002)
The 5-chloro-2-methoxybenzoates of Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II) were synthesized as solids and their magnetic, spectral and thermal properties studied. The complexes possess colours typical of the M(II) ions. The thermal stabilities were examined in air and nitrogen atmospheres and the products of decompositions were also identified. The magnetic susceptibilities of the complexes were measured over the temperature range 4.4–300 K and the magnetic moments were calculated. The results show that the 5-chloro-2-methoxybenzoates of Mn(II), Co(II) and Ni(II) are octahedral, high-spin complexes.
 
Keywords: 5-chloro-2-methoxybenzoates, Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II) complexes, magnetic moments, thermal stability, FTIR spectra.

(Received 17 April 2002)
Chemical composition and phase structure of Zn-Ni alloys obtained by electrochemical deposition under various conditions were investigated. The alloys were deposited on a rotating disc electrode and steel panel from chloride solutions by direct and pulse current. The influence of the pulse plating variables (on-time, off-time, relation of off- and on-time) on the composition, phase structure and corrosion properties were investigated. The phase composition affects the anticorrosive properties of Zn-Ni alloys during exposure to a corrosive agent (3 % NaCl solution). It was shown that a Zn-Ni alloy electrodeposited by pulse current with a pulse time of 1 ms and an off- and on-time ratio of 1 exhibits the best corrosion properties.
 
Keywords: Zn-Ni alloy, electrodeposition, pulse current, ALSV, corrosion.

A possible way for the estimation of the interfacial energy of the copper – copper sulphate solution interface is proposed. The estimated value of (2.7± 0.3) J cm-2 and the derived equations which relate the specific surface of copper powder to the deposition conditions permit an estimation of the specific surface of copper powderc The agreement between the estimated value and literature data is very good.
Keywords: interfacial energy copper – copper sulphate solution, specific surface of copper powder.
