[资源] LIQUID INTEDFACES IN CHEMICAL, BIOLOGICAL, AND PHARMACEUTICAL APPLICATIONS

LIQUID INTEDFACES IN CHEMICAL, BIOLOGICAL, AND PHARMACEUTICAL APPLICATIONS



Boundary membranes play a key role in the cells of all contemporary organisms, and
simple models of membrane function are therefore of considerable interest. The interface
of two immiscible liquids has been widely used for this purpose. For example, the fundamental
processes of photosynthesis, biocatalysis, membrane fusion and interactions of
cells, ion pumping, and electron transport have all been investigated in such interfacial
systems.
Processes occurring at the interface between two immiscible liquids present a challenge
of great interest because heterogeneous structures of this kind are frequently encountered
in Nature. In particular, the electrical double layer at the oil–water interface occurs
in a heterogeneous interfacial region that separates different bulk regions of conductive
polarized media with a spatial separation of charges. The electrical double layer at the
interface between two immiscible liquids determines the kinetics of charge transfer across
the phase boundaries, stability and electrokinetic properties of lyophobic colloids,
mechanisms of phase transfer or interfacial catalysis, charge separation in biological
energy transduction, and heterogeneous enzymatic catalysis. The elucidation of the structure
of the interface between two immiscible liquids and the mechanism of charge separation
is a fundamental problem of modern chemistry and chemical technology.
The interface between two immiscible electrolyte solutions can be either polarizable
or nonpolarizable, depending on its permeability to charged particles in the system. If the
interface is impermeable to charged particles or the transfer between the phases is difficult,
it is called polarizable. A completely nonpolarizable interface containing at least one
common ion can pass a high current in either direction without giving rise to a deviation
of the interfacial potential difference from the equilibrium value. Although in practice we
encounter neither ideally polarizable nor completely nonpolarizable interfaces, under certain
conditions the properties of some interfaces are close to ideal. Since any interface is
permeable to ions to some extent, only an approximation of the limiting version of a
polarizable interface can be realized experimentally.
Michael Faraday first studied electron transfer reactions at oil–water interfaces to
prepare colloidal metals by reducing metal salts at the ether–water or carbon disulfide–
water interfaces. As the field progressed after Faraday’s pioneering observations, it
became clear that vectorial charge transfer at the interface between two dielectric media is
an important stage in many bioelectrochemical processes such as those mediated by
energy-transducing membranes. Studies have been made on redox and hydrolysis reactions
catalyzed by enzymes, photosynthetic pigments, metal complexes of porphyrins,
bacteria, and submitochondrial particles, as well as in systems with an extended surface—
in microemulsions, vesicles, and reversed micelles. Naturally immobilized enzymes
and pigments embedded in a hydrophilic-hydrophobic interface have properties similar to
their functional state in a membrane. For instance, certain enzymes can be highly active at
the interface but virtually inactive in a homogeneous medium.
The interface between two immiscible liquids with immobilized photosynthetic pigments
can serve as a convenient model for investigating photoprocesses that are accompanied
by spatial separation of charges. The efficiency of charge separation defines the
quantum yield of any photochemical reaction. Heterogeneous sytems will be most effective
in this regard, where the oxidants and the reductants are either in different phases or
sterically separated. Different solubilities of the substrates and reaction products in the
two phases of heterogeneous systems can alter the redox potential of reactants, making it
possible to carry out reactions that cannot be performed in a homogeneous phase.
Elucidation of photosynthetic mechanisms is also significant in designing artificial
systems for solar energy utilization. The quantum yield of the photocatalytic reaction
depends first of all on the efficiency of the photochemical charge separation. The most
effective system should be a heterogeneous system in which the oxidant and the reductant
are either in different phases or sterically separated. The difference in solubilities of the
substrates and reaction products in both phases of such a heterogeneous structure as the
octane–water interface can shift the reaction equilibrium. The redox potential scale is
thereby altered, making it possible to carry out reactions that cannot be performed in a
homogeneous phase. Extraction of the reaction products and adsorption of the reaction
components determine high catalytic properties of the interface between two immiscible
liquids, recognized recently as interfacial catalysis.
Chemical models of photosynthesis have been used to investigate two types of reactions:
photosynthesis and photocatalysis. In photosynthetic processes the standard Gibbs
free energy of the reaction is positive, and solar energy is utilized to perform work. In
photocatalytic processes the free energy is negative and solar energy is used to overcome
the activation barrier.
The processes of life have been found to generate electric fields in every organism
that has been examined with suitable and sufficiently sensitive measuring techniques. The
electrochemical conduction of electrochemical excitation over specialized structures must
be regarded as one of the most universal properties of living organisms. It arose at the
early stages of evolution in connection with the need for transmission of a signal about an
external influence from one part of a biological system to another.
Clearly, then, the chemical and physical properties of liquid interfaces represent a
significant interdisciplinary research area for a broad range of investigators, such as those
who have contributed to this book. The chapters are organized into three parts. The first
deals with the chemical and physical structure of oil–water interfaces and membrane
surfaces. Eighteen chapters present discussion of interfacial potentials, ion solvation, electrostatic
instabilities in double layers, theory of adsorption, nonlinear optics, interfacial
kinetics, microstructure effects, ultramicroelectrode techniques, catalysis, and extraction.
The second part, on biological applications of interfacial phenomena, has ten chapters
that deal successively with protein encapsulation, membranes, effects of phospholiiv
pids, biocatalysis, oscillation of membrane potentials, and fundamentals of interfacial
electrochemical phenomena in green plants.
The final part, on pharmaceutical applications, consists of five chapters and includes
topics such as drugs at liquid interfaces, NMR studies, and drugs and gene delivery.
We thank the authors for the time they spent on this project and for teaching us
about their work.
