Memorials of endurance and adventure : exhibiting British polar exploration, 1819-c.1939

Murray, Katie January 2017 (has links)
Over eighty polar-themed exhibitions were held in Britain between 1819 and the 1930s, a time of intense exploration of both the Arctic and Antarctic. These varied from panoramas and human exhibits to displays of ‘relics', equipment, photographs and artwork, waxworks and displays shown as part of a Great Exhibition. This period also saw the creation of the first dedicated polar museums. These displays were visited by thousands of people throughout the country, helping to mediate the subject of exploration for a public audience. Despite this, the role exhibitions played in forming popular views of the polar regions has not been fully assessed. This thesis addresses this gap. It is the first to consider all the polar exhibitions held during this period as a collective body, making it possible to study how they developed over time and in response to changing circumstances. The thesis uses a variety of archival sources to both reconstruct the displays and place them in their historical and museological contexts. The study shows that exhibitions evolved in response to changes both in the museum sector and in exploration culture. It demonstrates that, while they were originally identified with the shows of the entertainment industry, polar exhibitions began to take on more of the characteristics of museum displays. At the same time their dominant themes changed; the natural world was relegated in favour of ideas relating to the human experience of the regions such as heroism, adventure and everyday life in an exotic environment. While other media may have been more effective in disseminating ideas about exploration, visitors could find the experience of visiting an exhibition more compelling. This thesis contributes to our understanding of this distinct role that exhibitions played in presenting the polar regions to the British public.

Isoxazolinas e isoxazóis como reais candidatos na preparação de cristais líquidos polares

Rosa, Rafaela Raupp da January 2018 (has links)
A presente tese descreve a síntese e caracterização de 10 novas séries de moléculas na forma de banana contendo os anéis isoxazolina e isoxazol como reais candidatos na preparação de cristais líquidos polares. Foram avaliados parâmetros estruturais tais como o tipo de função conectora do centro curvado com os braços mesogênicos, a natureza do heterociclo e a sua posição relativa ao núcleo. A síntese dos compostos contou com a metodologia de preparação do anel isoxazolina, a cicloadição [3+2] 1,3-dipolar entre alcenos e óxidos de nitrila, os quais foram gerados pelas oximas preparadas a partir de aldeídos alifáticos e aromáticos. Todas as isoxazolinas foram oxidadas aos seus respectivos isoxazóis utilizando dióxido de manganês. Foram utilizadas ainda reações de alquilação, redução, desproteção, hidrogenólise, olefinação, adição de aminas à aldeídos e esterificação. Todas as moléculas sintetizadas foram caracterizadas por RMN de 1H e 13C, além de serem observadas por MOLP para determinação dos seus pontos de fusão. As moléculas que apresentaram comportamento mesomórfico foram ainda caracterizadas por DSC, XRD e voltagem triangular. No capítulo 3 é descrita a síntese dos isoftalatos 19a-b, 20a-b, 26a-b e 27a-b. No subgrupo dos Isoftalatos derivados de isoxazóis e isoxazolinas 3,5-diarilsubstituídos foi possível a síntese apenas do composto 11d que não apresentou comportamento líquido cristalino No subgrupo dos isoftalatos derivados de isoxazóis e isoxazolinas 3-alquil-5-arilsubstituídos as isoxazolinas 19a-b não apresentaram comportamento líquido-cristalino. Foram encontradas mesofases para os compostos 20a-b que ainda não foram determinadas com as técnicas disponíveis. Os isoxazóis 20a-b apresentaram uma provável Blue Phase logo após o resfriamento do isotrópico, que rapidamente se converte em uma provável mesofase monotrópica ferroelétrica com texturas e padrão de XRD peculiares até então não observada na literatura. No subgrupo dos isoftalatos derivados de isoxazóis e isoxazolinas 3-aril-5-alquilsubstituídos 26a-b e 27a-b não foi observado comportamento líquido-cristalino. O capítulo 4 descreve a síntese das isoftaliminas 35, 36, 44, 45, 50a-b, 51a-b, 56a-d, 57a-d, 63a-b e 64a-b. No subgrupo dos isoxazóis e isoxazolinas 3,5-diarilsubstituídos 35, 36, 44 e 45 foram observadas as mesofases B7 e B1 apenas com a inversão da orientação do anel isoxazol como braçomesogênicos dos compostos finais, enquanto que as isoxazolinas não apresentaram mesofases. A mesofase B7 do composto 36 apresentou comportamento antiferroelétrico enquanto que a mesofase B1 do composto 45 não mostrou resposta frente ao campo elétrico aplicado, além disso, o XRD mostrou que tal mesofase colunar B1 pode ser uma fase 3D modulada. No subgrupo das isoxazolinas e isoxazóis 3-alquil-5-arilsubstituídos 50a-b e 51a-b foram observadas fases do tipo DC para as isoxazolinas 50a-b, a qual deve ser confirmada por FFTEM. No subgrupo dos materiais 3-aril-5-alquilsubstituídos 56a-d, 57a-d, 63a-b e 64a-b foram observadas mesofases SmXPF para os compostos 56b-d. Os isoxazóis 57a-d apresentaram texturas similares, porém não apresentaram mesofase, mas os mesmos seguem o mesmo padrão de difração das isoxazolinas do capítulo 3. Apenas a isoxazolina 63b dos compostos perfluorados apresentou mesofase No capítulo 5 é descrita a síntese de ésteres não-simétricos contendo os heterociclos isoxazol e isoxazolinas como núcleo central 71a-f, 82, 83, 84 e 85. No primeiro subgrupo todos os ésteres cinâmicos 71a-f apresentaram comportamento mesomórfico com grandes faixas de temperaturas nas mesofases. No segundo subgrupo as isoxazolinas 82 e 83 apresentaram comportamento completamente distinto, onde só foi observada a formação de uma mesofase SmB para o composto que tem a posição éster localizada na direção do nitrogênio do heterociclo. Já os isoxazóis 84 e 85 deste subgrupo apresentaram as mesofases N e SmC em temperaturas bastante similares, porém, a observação desses materiais em uma cela alinhada revelou o crescimento de filamentos na transição N-SmC apenas para o composto 85, o qual também possui a porção éster na direção do nitrogênio do anel isoxazol. O capítulo 6 traz a síntese dos ésteres e iminas simétricos 88, 89, 94 e 95 utilizando os heterociclos como núcleo central, os quais apresentaram mesofases SmC e N. Além disso, o diéster 89 derivado de isoxazol apresentou a mesma característica que o composto 85 do capítulo 5, apresentando uma transição N-SmC com crescimento de filamentos perpendiculares à direção de alinhamento da amostra dentro da cela, podendo estar relacionada à uma mesofase NTB. / This thesis describe the synthesis and characterization of 10 new series of banana shaped molecules containing the isoxazoline and isoxazole rings as real players for preparation of polar liquid crystals. It was evaluate structural parameters such as the type of connecting function of the bent core with the mesogenic arms, the heterocycle nature and its position relative to the central core. The synthesis of the compounds included the methodology of preparation of the isoxazoline ring, the [3 + 2] 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition between alkenes and nitrile oxides, which were generated by the oximes prepared from aliphatic and aromatic aldehydes. Furthermore, all isoxazolines were oxidized to its respective isoxazoles using manganese dioxide. Besides the described methodologies, alkylation, reduction, deprotection, hydrogenolysis, olefination, addition of amines to the aldehydes and esterification reactions were used. All the synthesized molecules were characterized by 1H NMR and 13C NMR, and also observed by POM for determination of its melting points. The molecules previously analyzed by POM that showed mesomorphic behavior were characterized by DSC, XRD and triangular voltage still. Chapter 3 describes the synthesis of isophthalates 19a-b, 20a-b, 26a-b e 27a-b. In the subgroup of isophthalates derived from isoxazoles and isoxazolines 3,5-diarylsubstituted it was possible to synthesize only compound 11d which did not show liquid crystalline behavior In the subgroup of the isophthalates derived from isoxazoles and isoxazolines 3-alkyl-5-arylsubstituted the isoxazolines 19a-b did not show liquid crystalline behavior. It was found mesophases for compounds 20a-b that still could not be determined with the available techniques. The isoxazoles 20a-b presented a probable Blue Phase soon after cooling from the isotropic which quickly converts into a probable ferroelectric monotropic mesophase with peculiar textures and pattern of XRD until then not observed in the literature. In the subgroup of the isophthalates of isoxazoles and isoxazolines 3-aryl-5-alkylsubstituted 26a-b and 27a-b no liquid crystalline behavior was observed. Chapter 4 describes the synthesis of isophthalimines 35, 36, 44, 45, 50a-b, 51a-b, 56a-d, 57a-d, 63a-b and 64a-b. In the subgroup of the isoxazoles 3,5-diarylsubstituted 35, 36, 44 and 45 the B7 and B1 mesophases were observed only with the inversion of the isoxazole ring orientation as mesogenic arm of thefinal compounds whereas the isoxazolines did not present mesophases. The B7 mesophase of the compound 36 showed antiferroelectric switching while the B1 mesophase of the compound 45 showed no response to the applied electric field, in addition, the XRD showed that such B1 columnar mesophase could be a 3D modulated phase one. In the subgroup of 3-alkyl-5-arylsubstituted isoxazolines and isoxazoles 50a-b and 51a-b DC phases were observed for isoxazolines 50a-b which should be confirmed by FFTEM. The SmXPF mesophase were observed for componds 56b-d in the subgroup of 3-aryl-5-alkylsubstituted materials 56a-d, 57a-d, 63a-b e 64a-b. The isoxazoles 57a-d presented similar textures although did not showed mesophase, but they follow the same diffraction pattern of the chapter 3 isoxazolines. Only the isoxazoline 63b of the perfluorinated compounds showed mesophase In chapter 5 is described the synthesis of non-symmetric esters containing isoxazol and isoxazolines heterocycles as central core 71a-f, 82, 83, 84 e 85. In the first subgroup all the cinnamic esters 71a-f showed mesomorphic behavior with large mesophases temperature ranges. In the second subgroup the isoxazolines 82 and 83 showed completely different behavior which only was observed the SmB mesophase formation for compound having the ester position towards the heterocycle nitrogen. Furthermore, the isoxazoles 84 and 85 of this subgroup showed the N and SmC mesophases at very similar temperatures, however, the observation of these materials in an aligned cell revealed the filamentary growth in the N-SmC transition only for compound 85, which also has the ester moiety in the direction of the isoxazole ring nitrogen. Chapter 6 brings forward the synthesis of symmetrical esters and imines 88, 89, 94 and 95 using the heterocycles as the central cores, which showed SmC and N mesophases. Moreover, the isoxazole derived diester 89 showed the same feature as compound 85 of Chapter 5, exhibiting a N-SmC transition with filament growth perpendicular to the rubbing direction of the cell which may be related to a NTB mesophase.

Evolution du bilan de masse de surface Antarctique par régionalisation physique et contribution aux variations du niveau des mers / Evolution of Antarctic surface mass balance by high-resolution downscaling and impact on sea-level changes

Agosta, Cécile 15 June 2012 (has links)
Le Bilan de Masse de Surface (BMS, c'est-à-dire les précipitations de neige auxquelles est retranchée l'ablation par sublimation, ruissellement ou érosion) de la calotte polaire Antarctique représente une contribution majeure et encore mal connue à l'évolution actuelle du niveau des mers. Le stockage d'eau douce par accumulation de neige sur la calotte posée est supposé s'intensifier au cours du 21eme siècle, modérant l'élévation du niveau des mers et modifiant la dynamique glaciaire. Les trois-quarts du bilan de masse de surface Antarctique sont concentrés au dessous de 2000 m d'altitude alors que cette zone ne représente que 40% de la surface de la calotte posée. Les précipitations orographiques sont une contribution majeure à l'accumulation dans cette région, il est donc crucial d'estimer précisément ce terme. La modélisation de ce processus est fortement dépendant de la résolution des modèles, car les pentes de la calotte influencent l'intensité des précipitations orographiques. La sublimation et la fonte de la neige sont eux aussi fortement dépendant de l'élévation. Bien qu'ils contribuent actuellement peu au bilan de masse de surface de l'Antarctique, ils sont susceptibles de subir des changements importants au cours des prochains siècles. Les modèles atmosphériques de climat, globaux ou régionaux, ne peuvent pas atteindre une résolution allant au delà de 40 km sur l'Antarctique pour des simulations à l'échelle du siècle du fait de coûts de calcul importants. A ces résolutions, la topographie des zones côtières Antarctique n'est pas correctement représentée. C'est pourquoi nous avons développé le modèle de régionalisation SMHiL (Surface Mass balance High-resolution downscaLing) qui permet d'estimer les composantes du bilan de masse de surface Antarctique à haute résolution (~15 km) à partir de champs atmosphériques de plus grande échelle. Nous calculons l'effet de la topographie fine sur les précipitations orographiques et sur les processus de couche limite menant à la sublimation, la fonte et le regel. SMHiL est validé pour la période actuelle à partir d'un jeu de données inédit constitué de plus de 2700 observations de qualité contrôlée. Cependant, les observations représentatives du BMS de la zone côtière Antarctique y sont sous-représentées. Dans ce contexte, nous montrons que la ligne de balise mise en place par l'observatoire GLACIOCLIM-SAMBA en bordure de calotte constitue une référence pour estimer les performances des modèles. Enfin, nous utilisons SMHiL à l'aval du modèle de circulation générale LMDZ4 pour évaluer les variations de BMS au cours du 21eme et du 22eme siècles. Le BMS à haute résolution est significativement différent de celui de LMDZ4 et est plus proche du BMS observé pour la période actuelle. Les résultats suggèrent que les précédentes estimations d'augmentation du BMS au cours du prochain siècle étaient sous-estimées de près de 30% par LMDZ4. Les changements de BMS à faible élévation résulteront d'une compétition entre l'augmentation d'accumulation de neige et de ruissellement. SMHiL est un outil destiné à être appliqué à l'aval d'autres modèles de climat, globaux ou régionaux, pour une meilleure estimation des variations futures du niveau des mers. / The Antarctic Surface Mass Balance (SMB, i.e. the snow accumulation from which we subtract ablation by sublimation, run-off or erosion) is a major yet badly known contribution to changes in the present-day sea level. Water storage by snow accumulation on the Antarctic continent is expected to increase in the 21st century, which would moderate the rise in sea level and impact the ice dynamic response of the ice sheet. Three-quarters of the Antarctic SMB are concentrated below 2000 m above sea level whereas this area represents only 40% of the grounded ice sheet area. Orographic precipitation is a major contributor to snow accumulation in this region, which is why a better estimation of this term is important. The representation of this process by models depends to a great extent on the resolution of the model, since precipitation amounts depend on the ice sheet slopes. Sublimation and snowmelt also depend on elevation, and although they are presently minor contributors to the Antarctic SMB, their role is expected to become more important in the coming centuries. Global and regional atmospheric climate models are unable to achieve a 40-km resolution over Antarctica at a century time scale, due to their computing cost. At this resolution, the Antarctic coastal area is still badly represented. This is why we developed the downscaling model SMHiL (Surface mass balance high-resolution downscaling) to estimate the Antarctic SMB components at a high resolution (~15 km) from large-scale atmospheric forcings. We computed the impact of the high-resolution topography on orographic precipitation amounts and the boundary layer processes that lead to sublimation, melting and refreezing. SMHiL has been validated for the present period with a dataset composed of more than 2700 quality-controlled observations. However, very few of these observations are representative of the Antarctic coastal area. In this context, we show that the GLACIOCLIM-SAMBA stake lines located on the ice sheet coast-to-plateau area is an appropriate reference to evaluate model performance. Finally, we used SMHiL to estimate the SMB changes during the 21st and 22nd centuries, by downscaling the atmospheric global climate model LMDZ4. The high-resolution SMB is significantly different from the SMB given by LMDZ4 and is closer to the observed one for the present period. Our results suggest that previous studies using the LMDZ4 models underestimated the future increase in SMB in Antarctica by about 30%. Future changes in the Antarctic SMB at low elevations will result from the conflict between higher snow accumulation and runoff. The downscaling model is a powerful tool that can be applied to climate models for a better assessment of a future rise in sea level.

Transfert de l'anomalie isotopique portée par l'ozone dans la troposphère : vers une interprétation quantitative de la composition isotopique en oxygène du nitrate atmosphérique / Constraining the propagation of the 17O-excess of ozone in the troposphere : Towards a quantitative interpretation of the oxygen isotopic composition of atmospheric nitrate

Vicars, William 19 April 2013 (has links)
L'ozone (O3) possède une anomalie isotopique en oxygène qui est unique et caractéristique, offrant ainsi un précieux traceur des processus oxydatifs à l'œuvre dans l'atmosphère moderne mais aussi ceux ayant eu lieu dans le passé. Cette signature isotopique, dénotée Δ17O, se propage au sein du cycle atmosphérique de l'azote réactif (NOx = NO + NO2) et est préservée lors du dépôt du nitrate (NO3-) présent dans l'aérosol, par exemple. L'anomalie isotopique en oxygène portée par le nitrate, Δ17O(NO3-), représente ainsi un traceur de l'importance relative de l'ozone ainsi que celle d'autres oxydants dans le cycle des NOx. Ces dernières années, de nombreux travaux de recherche ont été dédiés à l'interprétation des mesures de Δ17O(NO3-). Pourtant, les processus atmosphériques responsables du transfert de l'anomalie isotopique de l'ozone vers le nitrate ainsi que leur influence globale sur la composition isotopique du nitrate à différentes échelles spatiales et temporelles sont encore mal compris. De plus, la magnitude absolue ainsi que la variabilité spatio-temporelle de Δ17O(O3) sont peu contraintes, car il est difficile d'extraire de l'ozone de l'air ambiant. Cet obstacle technique contrecarre l'interprétation des mesures de Δ17O depuis plus d'une décennie. Les questions scientifiques posées au cours de ce travail de thèse ont été choisies dans le but de combler ces lacunes. Le principal outil d'analyse utilisé dans ce travail est la « méthode bactérienne » associée à la spectrométrie de masse en flux continu (CF-IRMS), une combinaison de techniques qui permet l'analyse de la composition isotopique totale du nitrate (c'est-à-dire, la mesure de δ15N, δ18O et Δ17O). Cette méthode a été employée pour l'analyse isotopique d'échantillons de nitrate obtenus pour deux cas d'études : (i) une étude des variations spatiales de la composition isotopique du nitrate atmosphérique sur la côte californienne à l'échelle journalière; et (ii) une étude du transfert du nitrate et de sa composition isotopique à l'interface entre l'air et la neige à l'échelle saisonnière sur le plateau Antarctique. En outre, cette méthode a été adaptée à la caractérisation isotopique de l'ozone via la conversion chimique de ses atomes d'oxygène terminaux en nitrate. Au cours de cette thèse, un important jeu de données rassemblant de nombreuses mesures troposphériques de Δ17O(O3) a été obtenu, incluant une année entière de mesures à Grenoble, France (45 °N) ainsi qu'un transect latitudinal de collecte dans la couche limite au-dessus de l'océan Atlantique, entre 50 °S to 50 °N. Ces observations ont permis de doubler le nombre de mesures troposphériques de Δ17O(O3) existantes avant cette thèse et d'accroître de manière conséquente notre représentation globale de cette variable isotopique essentielle. Enfin, les deux cas étudiés et présentés dans ce document révèlent des aspects nouveaux et inattendus de la dynamique isotopique du nitrate atmosphérique, avec d'importantes conséquences potentielles pour la modélisation de la qualité de l'air et l'interprétation de l'information isotopique contenue dans les carottes de glace prélevées aux pôles. / The unique and distinctive 17O-excess (Δ17O) of ozone (O3) serves as a valuable tracer for oxidative processes in both modern and ancient atmospheres. This isotopic signature is propagated throughout the atmospheric reactive nitrogen (NOx = NO + NO2) cycle and preserved in nitrate (NO3-) aerosols and mineral deposits, providing a conservative tracer for the relative importance of ozone and other key oxidants involved in NOx cycling. However, despite the intense research effort dedicated to the interpretation of Δ17O(NO3-) measurements, the atmospheric processes responsible for the transfer of Δ17O to nitrate and their overall influence on nitrate isotopic composition on different spatial and temporal scales are not well understood. Furthermore, due to the inherent complexity of extracting ozone from ambient air, the absolute magnitude and spatiotemporal variability of Δ17O(O3) remains poorly constrained, a problem that has confounded the interpretation of Δ17O measurements for over a decade. The research questions that have been pursued in this thesis were formulated to address these knowledge gaps. The primary analytical tool used was the bacterial denitrifier method followed by continuous-flow isotope ratio mass spectrometry (CF-IRMS), which allows for the comprehensive isotopic analysis of nitrate (i.e., δ15N, δ18O, Δ17O). This method was applied to the isotopic analysis of nitrate samples in two case studies: (i) an investigation of the diurnal and spatial features of atmospheric nitrate isotopic composition in coastal California; and (ii) a study of the seasonality and air-snow transfer of nitrate stable isotopes on the Antarctic plateau. Furthermore, the method was adapted to the isotopic characterization of ozone via chemical conversion of its terminal oxygen atoms to nitrate. During the course of this thesis, a large dataset of tropospheric Δ17O(O3) measurements has been obtained, including a full annual record from Grenoble, France (45 °N) and a ship-based latitudinal profile from 50 °S to 50 °N in the Atlantic marine boundary layer (MBL). This observational dataset represents a two-fold increase in the number of existing tropospheric Δ17O(O3) observations and a dramatic expansion in the global representation of this key isotopic variable. Additionally, the two case studies presented reveal novel and often unexpected aspects of the isotope dynamics of atmospheric nitrate, with potentially important implications for air quality modeling and the interpretation of isotopic information preserved in the polar ice core record.

Assimilation de données pour l'initialisation et l'estimation de paramètres d'un modèle d'évolution de calotte polaire / Data assimilation for initialisation and parameter estimation of an ice sheet evolution model

Bonan, Bertrand 15 November 2013 (has links)
L'évolution des calottes polaires est régie à la fois par une dynamique d'écoulement complexe et par des mécanismes tel le glissement à la base, la température de la glace ou le bilan de masse en surface. De plus, de nombreuses boucles de rétroactions sont constatées entre les différents phénomènes impliquées. Tout ceci rend la modélisation de cette évolution complexe. Malgré tout, un certain nombre de modèles ont été développés dans cette optique. Ceux-ci font tous intervenir des paramètres influents qui dans certains cas sont peu ou pas connus. Ils nécessitent donc d'être correctement spécifiés. L'assimilation de données peut permettre une meilleure estimation de ces paramètres grâce à l'utilisation d'observations qui sont peu nombreuses en glaciologie. Dans cette thèse, nous nous intéressons à la mise en place de systèmes d'assimilation performants pour deux problèmes inverses concernant l'évolution des calottes polaires. Pour mieux nous concentrer sur ce point, nous avons travaillé avec un modèle d'évolution de calotte simplifié (appelé Winnie) qui, cependant, représente bien la plupart des processus complexes de la dynamique de la glace, et permet de travailler à différentes échelles de temps. Dans un premier temps, nous mettons en place une approche 4D-Var pour la reconstruction de l'évolution d'un paramètre climatique influant sur l'évolution d'une calotte sur une échelle de temps typique de 20 000 ans. Elle nécessite notamment l'écriture du code adjoint du modèle. Dans un second temps, nous nous intéressons au problème du spin-up. Ce problème de calibration du modèle pour des simulations à échelle de temps courtes (pas plus de 100 ans) consiste plus particulièrement en la reconstruction conjointe de l'état initial, de la topographie du socle rocheux et des paramètres de glissement basal. Nous développons ici une approche filtre de Kalman d'ensemble pour résoudre ce problème. / Ice sheet evolution is both driven by a complex flow dynamics and by physical mechanisms such as basal sliding, ice temperature or surface mass balance. In addition to those, many feedback loops are observed between the different implicated phenomena. That explains how complex is to model this evolution. However several models have been developed in that purpose. These models depend on influential parameters, which often are unfortunately poorly known. So they need to be correctly specified. Data assimilation can give a better estimation of these parameters thanks to observations which are quite rare in glaciology. In this thesis, we work on the setup of efficient data assimilation systems for two inverses problems involving ice sheet evolution. We work with a simplified ice sheet evolution model called Winnie in order to focus on the setup. Nevertheless Winnie takes into account the major complex processes of ice dynamics and can be used for studies with different time scales. The first part of the thesis focuses on developing a 4D-Var approach in order to retrieve the evolution of a climatic parameter for a typical time scale of 20 000 years. This approach require the implementation the adjoint code of the evolution model. In a second part, we focus on the spin-up problem. This calibration problem for short term (maximum 100 years) simulations involve retrieving jointly the initial state, the bedrock topography and basal sliding parameters. In order to solve this problem we develop an Ensemble Kalman Filter approach.

Isoxazolinas e isoxazóis como reais candidatos na preparação de cristais líquidos polares

Rosa, Rafaela Raupp da January 2018 (has links)
A presente tese descreve a síntese e caracterização de 10 novas séries de moléculas na forma de banana contendo os anéis isoxazolina e isoxazol como reais candidatos na preparação de cristais líquidos polares. Foram avaliados parâmetros estruturais tais como o tipo de função conectora do centro curvado com os braços mesogênicos, a natureza do heterociclo e a sua posição relativa ao núcleo. A síntese dos compostos contou com a metodologia de preparação do anel isoxazolina, a cicloadição [3+2] 1,3-dipolar entre alcenos e óxidos de nitrila, os quais foram gerados pelas oximas preparadas a partir de aldeídos alifáticos e aromáticos. Todas as isoxazolinas foram oxidadas aos seus respectivos isoxazóis utilizando dióxido de manganês. Foram utilizadas ainda reações de alquilação, redução, desproteção, hidrogenólise, olefinação, adição de aminas à aldeídos e esterificação. Todas as moléculas sintetizadas foram caracterizadas por RMN de 1H e 13C, além de serem observadas por MOLP para determinação dos seus pontos de fusão. As moléculas que apresentaram comportamento mesomórfico foram ainda caracterizadas por DSC, XRD e voltagem triangular. No capítulo 3 é descrita a síntese dos isoftalatos 19a-b, 20a-b, 26a-b e 27a-b. No subgrupo dos Isoftalatos derivados de isoxazóis e isoxazolinas 3,5-diarilsubstituídos foi possível a síntese apenas do composto 11d que não apresentou comportamento líquido cristalino No subgrupo dos isoftalatos derivados de isoxazóis e isoxazolinas 3-alquil-5-arilsubstituídos as isoxazolinas 19a-b não apresentaram comportamento líquido-cristalino. Foram encontradas mesofases para os compostos 20a-b que ainda não foram determinadas com as técnicas disponíveis. Os isoxazóis 20a-b apresentaram uma provável Blue Phase logo após o resfriamento do isotrópico, que rapidamente se converte em uma provável mesofase monotrópica ferroelétrica com texturas e padrão de XRD peculiares até então não observada na literatura. No subgrupo dos isoftalatos derivados de isoxazóis e isoxazolinas 3-aril-5-alquilsubstituídos 26a-b e 27a-b não foi observado comportamento líquido-cristalino. O capítulo 4 descreve a síntese das isoftaliminas 35, 36, 44, 45, 50a-b, 51a-b, 56a-d, 57a-d, 63a-b e 64a-b. No subgrupo dos isoxazóis e isoxazolinas 3,5-diarilsubstituídos 35, 36, 44 e 45 foram observadas as mesofases B7 e B1 apenas com a inversão da orientação do anel isoxazol como braçomesogênicos dos compostos finais, enquanto que as isoxazolinas não apresentaram mesofases. A mesofase B7 do composto 36 apresentou comportamento antiferroelétrico enquanto que a mesofase B1 do composto 45 não mostrou resposta frente ao campo elétrico aplicado, além disso, o XRD mostrou que tal mesofase colunar B1 pode ser uma fase 3D modulada. No subgrupo das isoxazolinas e isoxazóis 3-alquil-5-arilsubstituídos 50a-b e 51a-b foram observadas fases do tipo DC para as isoxazolinas 50a-b, a qual deve ser confirmada por FFTEM. No subgrupo dos materiais 3-aril-5-alquilsubstituídos 56a-d, 57a-d, 63a-b e 64a-b foram observadas mesofases SmXPF para os compostos 56b-d. Os isoxazóis 57a-d apresentaram texturas similares, porém não apresentaram mesofase, mas os mesmos seguem o mesmo padrão de difração das isoxazolinas do capítulo 3. Apenas a isoxazolina 63b dos compostos perfluorados apresentou mesofase No capítulo 5 é descrita a síntese de ésteres não-simétricos contendo os heterociclos isoxazol e isoxazolinas como núcleo central 71a-f, 82, 83, 84 e 85. No primeiro subgrupo todos os ésteres cinâmicos 71a-f apresentaram comportamento mesomórfico com grandes faixas de temperaturas nas mesofases. No segundo subgrupo as isoxazolinas 82 e 83 apresentaram comportamento completamente distinto, onde só foi observada a formação de uma mesofase SmB para o composto que tem a posição éster localizada na direção do nitrogênio do heterociclo. Já os isoxazóis 84 e 85 deste subgrupo apresentaram as mesofases N e SmC em temperaturas bastante similares, porém, a observação desses materiais em uma cela alinhada revelou o crescimento de filamentos na transição N-SmC apenas para o composto 85, o qual também possui a porção éster na direção do nitrogênio do anel isoxazol. O capítulo 6 traz a síntese dos ésteres e iminas simétricos 88, 89, 94 e 95 utilizando os heterociclos como núcleo central, os quais apresentaram mesofases SmC e N. Além disso, o diéster 89 derivado de isoxazol apresentou a mesma característica que o composto 85 do capítulo 5, apresentando uma transição N-SmC com crescimento de filamentos perpendiculares à direção de alinhamento da amostra dentro da cela, podendo estar relacionada à uma mesofase NTB. / This thesis describe the synthesis and characterization of 10 new series of banana shaped molecules containing the isoxazoline and isoxazole rings as real players for preparation of polar liquid crystals. It was evaluate structural parameters such as the type of connecting function of the bent core with the mesogenic arms, the heterocycle nature and its position relative to the central core. The synthesis of the compounds included the methodology of preparation of the isoxazoline ring, the [3 + 2] 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition between alkenes and nitrile oxides, which were generated by the oximes prepared from aliphatic and aromatic aldehydes. Furthermore, all isoxazolines were oxidized to its respective isoxazoles using manganese dioxide. Besides the described methodologies, alkylation, reduction, deprotection, hydrogenolysis, olefination, addition of amines to the aldehydes and esterification reactions were used. All the synthesized molecules were characterized by 1H NMR and 13C NMR, and also observed by POM for determination of its melting points. The molecules previously analyzed by POM that showed mesomorphic behavior were characterized by DSC, XRD and triangular voltage still. Chapter 3 describes the synthesis of isophthalates 19a-b, 20a-b, 26a-b e 27a-b. In the subgroup of isophthalates derived from isoxazoles and isoxazolines 3,5-diarylsubstituted it was possible to synthesize only compound 11d which did not show liquid crystalline behavior In the subgroup of the isophthalates derived from isoxazoles and isoxazolines 3-alkyl-5-arylsubstituted the isoxazolines 19a-b did not show liquid crystalline behavior. It was found mesophases for compounds 20a-b that still could not be determined with the available techniques. The isoxazoles 20a-b presented a probable Blue Phase soon after cooling from the isotropic which quickly converts into a probable ferroelectric monotropic mesophase with peculiar textures and pattern of XRD until then not observed in the literature. In the subgroup of the isophthalates of isoxazoles and isoxazolines 3-aryl-5-alkylsubstituted 26a-b and 27a-b no liquid crystalline behavior was observed. Chapter 4 describes the synthesis of isophthalimines 35, 36, 44, 45, 50a-b, 51a-b, 56a-d, 57a-d, 63a-b and 64a-b. In the subgroup of the isoxazoles 3,5-diarylsubstituted 35, 36, 44 and 45 the B7 and B1 mesophases were observed only with the inversion of the isoxazole ring orientation as mesogenic arm of thefinal compounds whereas the isoxazolines did not present mesophases. The B7 mesophase of the compound 36 showed antiferroelectric switching while the B1 mesophase of the compound 45 showed no response to the applied electric field, in addition, the XRD showed that such B1 columnar mesophase could be a 3D modulated phase one. In the subgroup of 3-alkyl-5-arylsubstituted isoxazolines and isoxazoles 50a-b and 51a-b DC phases were observed for isoxazolines 50a-b which should be confirmed by FFTEM. The SmXPF mesophase were observed for componds 56b-d in the subgroup of 3-aryl-5-alkylsubstituted materials 56a-d, 57a-d, 63a-b e 64a-b. The isoxazoles 57a-d presented similar textures although did not showed mesophase, but they follow the same diffraction pattern of the chapter 3 isoxazolines. Only the isoxazoline 63b of the perfluorinated compounds showed mesophase In chapter 5 is described the synthesis of non-symmetric esters containing isoxazol and isoxazolines heterocycles as central core 71a-f, 82, 83, 84 e 85. In the first subgroup all the cinnamic esters 71a-f showed mesomorphic behavior with large mesophases temperature ranges. In the second subgroup the isoxazolines 82 and 83 showed completely different behavior which only was observed the SmB mesophase formation for compound having the ester position towards the heterocycle nitrogen. Furthermore, the isoxazoles 84 and 85 of this subgroup showed the N and SmC mesophases at very similar temperatures, however, the observation of these materials in an aligned cell revealed the filamentary growth in the N-SmC transition only for compound 85, which also has the ester moiety in the direction of the isoxazole ring nitrogen. Chapter 6 brings forward the synthesis of symmetrical esters and imines 88, 89, 94 and 95 using the heterocycles as the central cores, which showed SmC and N mesophases. Moreover, the isoxazole derived diester 89 showed the same feature as compound 85 of Chapter 5, exhibiting a N-SmC transition with filament growth perpendicular to the rubbing direction of the cell which may be related to a NTB mesophase.

Para excitar as respectivas moléculas de metanol, um tubo comercial selado de 13C02 foi montado e caracterizado num ressonador laser Fabry-Perot. Dois cabeçotes de aluminio foram conectados por 4 barras de invar, separado em 135cm. Em um dos cabeçotes, temos uma grade de difração (150 linhas/mm) na configuração Littrow para selecionar as linhas de emissao do respectivo laser. 0 2° cabeçote suporta um espelho de saída de ZnSe (90% de refletividade com 10m de raio de curvatura) acoplado num PZT para sintonia fina da frequência do laser. No sistema de alimentação, usamos uma fonte de alta tensão comercial (25kV, 8mA) operando em regime DC. Com isso, utilizamos o respectivo laser para excitar as moléculas CH30H e 13CH30H, onde fomos pioneiro no uso do mesmo para bombeio óptico da molécula 13CH30H. Decorrente disso, obtemos os espectros de absorção em torno de cada linha de emissão do 13C02 dos respectivos metanol. Estes dados serviram de referenda para investigação sistemática de novas emissões THz, onde observamos e caracterizamos 12 novas linhas THz do CH30H e 19 do 13CH30H. Todas foram caracterizadas em relação ao seu comprimento de onda, offset, pressao de trabalho, polaridade e intensidade relativa.Utilizando os dados de linhas THz observados por nós, e os espectros de absorção a Transformada de Fourier do CH30H e do 13CH30H, um programa computacional intitulado "Ritz", identificou "assignments" para 4 transições THz do CH30H e 9 emissoes THz para 13CH30H, respectivamente / Abstract: In this work we accomplish three important tasks: to mount and to characterize a laser sealed-off 13C02 to optically pump first time methanol molecules CH30H and 13CH30H for generation of TeraHertz waves; Proposed assignments for transistions THz of the CH30H and 13CH30H. For optical pumping we use a commercial sealed-off 13C02, tube in a homemade Fabry-Perot laser resonator, mounted on two aluminum blocks connected by invar rods and separeted by 1.35m. One block holds a grating (150grooves/mm) used in Littrow configuration to select the emission line, while the second block supports a ZnSe output mirror (90% reflectivity and 10m radius of curvature) mounted on a PZT for fine frequency tuning. We use high voltage power supply (25kV, 8mA) to operate the 13C02 laser in CW regime. A cooling system maintains operation of the laser tube at -10o C. Output powers of l0 W and 1l0 MHz tuning range are typical for lines with higher optical gains. After, molecules CH30H and 13CH30H, optoacoustics spectroscopy (OA) signal, obtained around each sealed-off 13C02 laser line were the starting point to search for THz laser lines. For the more intense OA signal, a systematic investigation was performed to observe and characterize 12 new THz lines of the CH30H and 19 THz emissions of 13CH30H that they had been characterized in wavelength, offset, working pressure, relativepolarity and relative intensity. The available data has been compared a Ritz analysis of the high-resolution Fourier-Transform absorption spectrum of CH30H and 13CH30H, resulting in the assignments for 4 THz transistions of the CH30H and 9 THz emissions for 13CH30H, respectively / Doutorado / Física Atômica e Molecular / Doutor em Ciências
