ESR IN NANOSTRUCTURED NiAl
Hou Bihui, Yi Su, Qin Xjaoying, Liang Renyou
Chinese Journal of Magnetic Resonance, 1997, 14(4): 281-285.
By ESR study a size effect in nanostructured NiAl samples was found. There is no ESR signal in polycrystalline bulk NiAl alloy which only has very weak Pauli paramagnetism. The ESR signal of nanostructure NiAl (n-NiAl), whose grain size is about 8.6nm and T C is 124K, is weakelled with the increase of temperature. When the n-NiAl.was anneled at 550℃ and 707℃, the average grain sizes of the samples are 12nm and 21nm respectively, and their ESR signals are stronger, and both samples can be attracted by a permanent magnet. There is a nonmagnetism-magnetisnl transition between polycrystalline NiAl alloy and nanostructure NiAl.

31 P NMR STUDIES ON PROTECTIVE EFFECTS OF VERAPAMIL AGAINST THE ISCHEMIA-REPERFUSION INJURED ISOLATED RAT HEARTS
Cheng Zengjiang, Du Zehan, Feng Rui, Li Guangyu, Dong Huajin
Chinese Journal of Magnetic Resonance, 1997, 14(4): 291-298.
To assess the myocardial effects of verapamil (Ver) pre-treatment against is-chemia-reperfusion injury, 31 P NMR was used to sequentially follow the time courses of high energy phosphates (HEP) contents and intracellular pH(pHi ) of the rat myocardium before, during and after total ischemia. After 30min of equilibration, the perfustion of isolated hearts was stopped for 30min and subsequent reperfusion lasted for 30min at 37℃.Ver (0.2μ mol·L-1 ) was added to the perfusate throughout the experiment. Ver induced a more complete restoration of coronary flow following reperfusion. 31 P NMR determination suggested metabolically beneficial effects induced by Ver administration. Phosphocreatine (PCr) became undetectable after 10min of ischemia in control hearts, but remained at 20%of its preischemic levels in Ver group. Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) decreased more slowly in treated than in untreated hearts during ischemia, with the end-ischemic levels of ATP were 53% and 34% respectively. Myocardial ATP was not replenished afer reperfusion in both groups, but Ver induced a significant (P < 0.05) higher recovery of PCr on reflow.PCr/Pi (inorganic phosphate) ratios were very significantly (P < 0.01) higher for treated hearts than for control hearts during both the first 10min of ischemia and the reperfusion stage. Ver was also found to significantly attenuate the acidosis during ischemia and prevent the appearance of very acidic areas of the myocardium after reperfusion.

2D NMR STUDIES ON CHEMICAL STRUCTURE OF A NEW COMPOUND OF KAURAN
Fu Hongzheng, Lin Wenhan
Chinese Journal of Magnetic Resonance, 1997, 14(4): 299-306.
A New Kauran compound was isolated from the herbs of Siegesbeckia pubascens, named as 17-isobuthyloxy-18-hydroxy-kauran-19-oic acid, all the 1 H and 13 C NMR chemical shifts of the com-pound were assigned by 1 H-1 H COSY, 13 C-1 H COSY, NOESY, HMBC, 2D NMR techniques. Its relative configuration is discussed by NOESY, The connection position of acyl radical in the structure was assigned by HMBC.

COMPLEX Pd[(PPh2 )2 CHCl]: SYNTHESIS,STRUCTURE AND ITS REACTION MECHANISM
Wei Fengping, Huang Yongren, Feng Liangbo, Lu Shijie, Wang Hanqing, Huang Liangren
Chinese Journal of Magnetic Resonance, 1997, 14(4): 325-330.
Complex PdCl2 [(PPh2 )2 CHCl] has been prepared by treatment of Pd(OAc)2 with dppm in solvent CH2 Cl2 . IR,1 H NMR, 31 P NMR, elemental analysis, EDS data are given. The molecular structure of PdCl2 [(PPh2 )CHCl] has been determined by single crystal X-ray diffeaction. The reaction mechanism is tentatively proposed and discussed. Radicals.PPh2 and other radicals were trapped by PBN. This reaction was proved to be a free radical reaction by EPR-ST method. The solvent CH2 Cl2 participated in the reaction.

NONINVASIVE EVALUATION OF GALLBLADDER BILE COMPOSITION BY MRI
Pu Yonglin, Feng Yilian, Ye Anpei, Wang Jixian
Chinese Journal of Magnetic Resonance, 1997, 14(4): 331-337.
In order to explore the possibility of MRI in the noninvasive evaluation of gallbladder bile composition T1 -weighted spin-echo exial abdominal MR image at 0.5T and gallbladder bile compositon were obtained in 38 individuals (12 with acute uncomplicated cholecystitis and gallbladder gallstones, 1 patient with suppurative cholecystitis, 2 with acute hemorrhagic cholecystitis, 14 with chronic cholecystitis and gallbladder stones, 5 with gallbladder polyps, 4 with obstructive jaundice) in fast stage. The results show that the concentrations of cholesterol (p =0.014), fatty acids (p =0.001) and iron (p < 0.001) in the gallbladder bile in fast stage were significantly and negatively associated with liver-gallbladder signal intensity ratio on the T1 weighted image (TR/TE=620/25 ms). No significant association was found between the liver-gallbladder signal intensity ratio and the concentrations of total protein, total bilirubin, Na+ , K+ , Cl- and Mg++ . We conclude that the liver-gallbladder signal intensity ratio on the T1 -weighted RM image can reflect gallbladder bile composition. The strongest determinants of the liver-gallbladder signal intensity ratio are the concentrations of cholesterol, fatty acids and iron.
