Molecular Mass (MM) distributions in humic acids from peat and two lignites have been investigated by high performance size-exclusion chromatography (SEC) after methylation and found to be in the range approximately 300 to more than 5000, with number average NM(Mn) near 800. Values of Mn determined by SEC were in good agreement with those from vapour pressure osmotery. High field13C NMR spectra of the methylated humic acids are extremely well resolved, and indicate that the samples are significantly different, despite their similar elemental compositions and MM distributions.  相似文献

Arsenic concentrations in soils may be elevated either because of anthropogenic activity or because of a high natural abundance of the parent material. In the unsaturated zone of seven forest soils in northern Sweden, inorganic As(V) generally dominated the solid-phase speciation while non-NaBH4-reducible organic As associated with isolated humic substances (humic As) was present in low amounts. In unpolluted soils, absorbed As(V) was more or less constant through the B and C horizons and did not show any obvious relationship with secondary short-range ordered Fe or Al minerals-this suggested that most As(V) had formed early during pedogenesis as a result of sulphide weathering. When a small amount of As(V) was added to the mineral soils, adsorption was almost complete and the amount of remaining As(V) in solution depended on the ratio of pyrophosphate-C to oxalate-(Fe + Al). On higher As(V) additions, the amount of adsorption sites governed the As solubility. As regards the humic As, the XAD-4 acid fulvates were more enriched with As as compared to the hydrophobic acids. The As content of the forest floor was highly dependent on the distance from the Rönnskärsverken non-ferrous metal smelter, but did not reflect the As content of the underlying horizons; thus, biological uptake of As from the mineral soil appeared to be very low.  相似文献

Thermodynamic modeling of equilibria in the system water–rock–organic acids was used to study the influence of organic acids on Ca and Mg redistribution between a solution and a solid phase in connection with the use of calcites of variable composition CaxMg1–xCO3 as indicators of paleoclimatic environments. In the thermodynamic model, high-molecular humic substances (fulvic + humic acids) were represented by a set of independent metal-binding centers. Therefore, their number was preset based on the given density of proton- or metal-binding sites. The numerical implementation of several geochemical situations involving the dissolution/deposition of calcites with different Mg contents showed that the main effect of fulvic and humic acids is the acidification of solutions and the reduction of carbonate stability. Although humic substances can play an important role in fixing Ca and Mg and removing them from solution, their actual concentrations in natural media (<<1 g/L) do not cause significant changes in the composition of CaxMg1–xCO3 phases. On the other hand, there is quantitative evidence that variations in the Mg/Ca ratio in a solution and a solid phase are significantly influenced by the evaporative concentration of Mg-oversaturated solutions, alkalization/acidification during their evolution, or CO2 content variations owing to changes in climate and lake activity.  相似文献

13C and 1H NMR spectra were obtained for humic acids isolated from marine sediments. NMR shows great promise in identifying structural components of humic acids as some new and interesting structural features are identified. Aliphatic structures were found to constitute a much larger fraction of humic acids than previously thought, and they appeared to be highly branched. Although the aromatic content of terrestrial humic acid was found to be lower than expected, the aromaticity appears to be a specific discriminator of terrestrial/aquatic source types. A humic acid isolated from an anoxic algal sapropel was found to be composed predominantly of polyuronic acids and different than other aquatic sedimentary humic substances.  相似文献

Peptides were released from organic matter fractions of three Italian soils (humin, humic and fulvic acids), when the samples were hydrolyzed in Ba(ON)2-saturated solution at 105°C for 2 hr. The peptides obtained were separated using electrophoresis and paper chromatography. The presence of polypeptides in the soil organic matter was indicated by: (1) their hydrolysis by pronase; (2) the amino acids released by 6 N HCl hydrolysis; (3) The comparison of i.r. spectra of humic fractions before and after hydrolysis with 6 N HCl.Attempts at isolating the native proteinaceous compounds using electrophoresis in polyacrylamide gel failed; additionally, our attempts to hydrolyze proteinaceous components enzymatically in unfractionated soil organic matter, as well as in its fractions, before and after methylation, with pepsin, papain and pronase, were unsuccessful. Pronase demonstrated a weak proteolytic activity only at very low substrate-enzyme ratios (20 : 1) in humic and fulvic fractions and in whole phyrophosphate extract. Deproteinated substrates treated with pronase also released free amino acids, suggesting autodigestion.In humin, humic and fulvic fractions we found a total amino acid content of 40–45%, 12–24% or 1–85, respectively. Amino acid recovery from single fractions was about 70–80% of the total content in the unfractionated soil.  相似文献

1H NMR spectra of humic (HA) and fulvic (FA) acids and their oxidative degradation products are reported. The HA shows the presence of -(CH2)n - CH3 (n > 6) chemical fragments belonging to n-alkanes and/or n-fatty acids physically adsorbed onto the macromolecule structure. These fragments are absent in the FA fraction. Both humic fractions reveal the presence of similar amounts of aromatic protons which partly undergo exchange phenomena. The importance of this experimental observation is discussed. Oxidative degradation seems to cause partial cleavage of aromatic rings, more pronounced in the FA than in the HA. The degraded FA shows a higher total acidity and a higher phenolic OH content than the degraded HA. Both degraded fractions display some sharp singlet signals at 1.9 and 3.9 ppm arising from protons belonging to repetitive chemical fragments probably formed during the oxidation reaction. Tentative assignments of these signals are given. A general analysis of the HA and FA degraded spectra seems to indicate that the chemical fragments which undergo peracetic oxidation are substantially similar. The extent of oxidation of the two humic fractions is different. The HA degradation products reveal the presence of oligomeric structures, whereas the degraded FA appears less resistant to the oxidizing agent.  相似文献

13C NMR spectroscopy is used to examine the hydroxyl group functionality of a series of humic and fulvic acids from different aquatic environments. Samples first are methylated with13C-labeled diazomethane. The NMR spectra of the diazomethylated samples allow one to distinguish between methyl esters of car☐ylic acids, methyl ethers of phenolic hydroxyls, and methyl ethers of phenolic hydroxyls adjacent to two substituents. Samples are then permethylated with13C-labeled methyl iodide/NaH.13C NMR spectra of permethylated samples show that a significant fraction of the hydroxyl groups is not methylated with diazomethane alone. In these spectra methyl ethers of carbohydrate and aliphatic hydroxyls overlap with methyl ethers of phenolic hydroxyls. Side reactions of the methyltion procedure including carbon methylation in the CH3I/NaH procedure, are also examined. Humic and fulvic acids from bog, swamp, groundwater, and lake waters showssome differences in their distribution of hydroxyl groups, mainly in the concentrations of phenolic hydroxyls, which may be attributed to their different biogeochemical origins.  相似文献

Humic substances present a geochemically and environmentally important, yet poorly characterized, component of dissolved organic matter. In the past they have generally been described as macromolecular polymers containing many different functional groups. Recently, it has been suggested, partly on the basis of new experimental data, that such materials are rather supramolecular in nature, consisting of smaller molecular units held together by noncovalent forces such as van der Waals forces and H-bonds. A perplexing difficulty in characterizing humic acids has always been that data expected to be informative, such as their Visible-UV spectra, were sadly lacking in structure. This has usually been explained using models in which ensembles of molecules are present characterized by either long-range charge-charge interactions or random short-range donor-acceptor interactions.Structural components resembling hydroquinone:quinone donor-acceptor complexes have been postulated to explain the near-IR and visible spectra of humic acids (Del Vecchio R., and Blough N.V. (2004) On the origin of the optical properties of humic substances. Environ. Sci. 38, 3885-3891). We have calculated structures, energetics and Visible-UV spectra for several different quinone and hydroquinone monomers and for donor-acceptor complexes formed between hydroquinone, H2Q, the donor, and quinone, Q, the acceptor. Most of the Visible-UV spectral calculations are carried out using time-dependent density functional theory. For the monomers the calculated energies are in good agreement with experiment. We confirm that the absorption spectra of the D:A complexes have maxima at much lower energy than their monomeric components. These absorption energies are influenced by substituents on the aromatic rings, but are also sensitive functions of the distances between the aromatic rings. The importance of D:A complexes in generating a spectrum like that of natural humic acids is consistent with the model of Del Vecchio and Blough (2004). However, our calculations of reaction free energies indicate that the donor-acceptor interactions do not arise from free D:A complexes, but rather from forced or random close approach of D and A rings.  相似文献

Humic acids were isolated from 5 sediments in which the origin nature of the organic matter are both typical and different. The humic acids were characterized on the basis of elemental compositions, infrared spectra and 1H and 13C NMR. This last technique, especially 13C NMR, provides qualitative and semi-quantitative information regarding aromatic structure. Combined data from the three techniques permits differentiation of marine and terrestrial organic matter as well as identification of mixtures of humic acids from the two sources.  相似文献

Framboidal pyrite has been prepared by precipitation of oxyhydroxides of iron, peptized by humic acids using a solution of Na-sulphate or hydrogen sulphide, spherical grains of elemental sulphur being present. By peptization of iron oxyhydroxides using humic acids, a stable negatively charged colloidal system arises. At room temperature and a pressure of 1 atm., and at pH widely ranging between 6.5–7.5, sulphidation of this colloidal system gives rise to a monodispersive sulphidic sol whose stability depends on the concentration of iron in the solution, the amount of humic acids and the presence of electrolytes. In the presence of spherical grains of sulphur, arising by rapid oxidation (acidification) of Na2S solution or a saturated solution of hydrogen sulphide, particles of the sulphidic sol precipitate on their surface and the grains become gradually replaced by sulphides of iron. At the same time, framboids of an average diameter of 14 μm are generated.  相似文献

13C NMR spectra of solid humic substances in Holocene sediments have been obtained using cross polarization with magic-angle sample spinning techniques. The results demonstrate that this technique holds great promise for structural characterizations of complex macromolecular substances such as humin and humic acids. Quantifiable distinctions can be made between structural features of aquatic and terrestrial humic substances. The aliphatic carbons of the humic substances are dominant components suggestive of input from lipid-like materials. An interesting resemblance is also noted between terrestrial humic acid and humin spectra.  相似文献

The role of lipid components in the aggregation of several humic acids isolated from different sources was investigated using surface tensiometry. A combination of aqueous alkaline and organic solvent extractions was used to isolate two humic-like fractions (HA1 and HA2) and one lipid-like fraction from each humic acid. Fraction HA1 represents approximately two-thirds of the total organic carbon of the original humic acid and under alkaline conditions is a weak surfactant that lowers the surface tension of water by only a small amount. The HA2 fraction represents up to one-third of the humic acid and significantly lowers the surface tension of water. It is also intimately associated with the lipid fraction. Unlike the original humic acid samples, HA2 does not show micelle-like aggregation over the concentration range studied. Aggregate formation is discussed as an emergent characteristic that results from the interaction of the humic acid’s components with the lipid components serving a facilitative role.  相似文献

The experimental conditions allowing quantitative interpretation of liquid state 13C-NMR spectra of the humic acids, derived from the five Victorian brown coal lithotypes are described. The structure of the two classes of humic acids investigated for each lithotype vary significantly in their level of aromaticity, the level of polar functional groups and aliphatic chains attached to their polyaromatic skeletons. Variation is also observed in the degree of aromaticity and oxygen-containing functions of humic acids with lithotype. These data are interpreted in the light of paleobotanical evidence, which suggests that the lithotypes represent variations in depositional environment and input to the coal seam.  相似文献

Humic acids from Recent lacustrine and marine sediments were divided into five components by extractions with organic solvents and characterized by elementary composition, ultraviolet, visible and infrared absorption spectra and n.m.r. spectra. The results suggest that sedimentary humic acids have a cyclic structure (40–50% of the total carbon), which is considered to be alicyclic rather than aromatic. No marked differences except for an absorption near 410 mμ were observed between humic acids from lake and marine sediments.  相似文献

Sources of sedimentary humic substances: vascular plant debris   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  
A modern Washington continental shelf sediment was fractionated densimetrically using either an organic solvent, CBrCl3, or aqueous ZnCl2. The resulting low density materials (<2.06 g/ml) account for only 1% of the sediment mass but contain 25% of the sedimentary organic carbon and 53% of the lignin. The C/N ratios (30–40) and lignin phenol yields (Λ = 8) and compositions indicate that the low density materials are essentially pure vascular plant debris which is slightly enriched in woody (versus nonwoody) tissues compared to the bulk sediment. The low density materials yield approximately one-third of their organic carbon as humic substances and contribute 23% and 14% of the total sedimentary humic and fulvic acids, respectively. Assuming that the lignin remaining in the sedimentary fraction is also contained in plant fragments that yield similar levels of humic substances, then 50% and 30% of the total humic and fulvic acids, respectively, arise directly from plant debris.Base-extraction of fresh and naturally degraded vascular plant materials reveals that significant levels of humic and fulvic acids are obtained using classical extraction techniques. Approximately 1–2% of the carbon from fresh woods and 10–25% from leaves and bark were isolated as humic acids and 2–4 times those levels as fulvic acids. A highly degraded hardwood yielded up to 44% of its carbon as humic and fulvic acids. The humic acids from fresh plants are generally enriched in lignin components relative to carbohydrates and recognizable biochemicals account for up to 50% of the total carbon. Humic and fulvic acids extracted directly from sedimentary plant debris could be responsible for a major fraction of the biochemical component of humic substances.  相似文献

Products from reaction of four humic acids of different origin and nature (synthetic, coal, peat, compost) and four s-triazine and six substituted urea herbicides were studied. Elemental composition and infrared and electron spin resonance spectra were measured on original humic acids, pure herbicides and the reaction products. Elemental analysis data indicated that stable complexes were formed between humic acids and herbicides. Infrared analysis results showed the formation of ionic and hydrogen bonds between interacting molecules and suggested the possible occurrence of charge-transfer complexes. Electron spin resonance parameters and in particular the increases concentrations of paramagnetic centres in interaction products gave evidence that electron donor-acceptor processes involving free radical intermediates were among the most important binding mechanisms occurring. Structural and chemical properties of both humic acids and herbicides influenced the prevailing type(s) of interaction mechanism(s) which occurred.  相似文献

The naturally abundant nitrogen in soil and aquatic NOM samples from the International Humic Substances Society has been characterized by solid state CP/MAS 15N NMR. Soil samples include humic and fulvic acids from the Elliot soil, Minnesota Waskish peat and Florida Pahokee peat, as well as the Summit Hill soil humic acid and the Leonardite humic acid. Aquatic samples include Suwannee River humic, fulvic and reverse osmosis isolates, Nordic humic and fulvic acids and Pony Lake fulvic acid. Additionally, Nordic and Suwannee River XAD-4 acids and Suwannee River hydrophobic neutral fractions were analyzed. Similar to literature reports, amide/aminoquinone nitrogens comprised the major peaks in the solid state spectra of the soil humic and fulvic acids, along with heterocyclic and amino sugar/terminal amino acid nitrogens. Spectra of aquatic samples, including the XAD-4 acids, contain resolved heterocyclic nitrogen peaks in addition to the amide nitrogens. The spectrum of the nitrogen enriched, microbially derived Pony Lake, Antarctica fulvic acid, appeared to contain resonances in the region of pyrazine, imine and/or pyridine nitrogens, which have not been observed previously in soil or aquatic humic substances by 15N NMR. Liquid state 15N NMR experiments were also recorded on the Elliot soil humic acid and Pony Lake fulvic acid, both to examine the feasibility of the techniques, and to determine whether improvements in resolution over the solid state could be realized. For both samples, polarization transfer (DEPT) and indirect detection (1H–15N gHSQC) spectra revealed greater resolution among nitrogens directly bonded to protons. The amide/aminoquinone nitrogens could also be observed by direct detection experiments.  相似文献

A set of surface samples was created using purified laboratory grade sand treated with 0.05 μg/g Hg as the HgCl2 salt and various concentrations of purified humic and fulvic acids. Emissions of elemental Hg from these substrates to the atmosphere were inversely correlated with the organic content of the samples (99% confidence level). The greatest differences in Hg emissions were found between samples containing the lowest concentrations of humic matter (0% versus 0.01% humic, and 0.01% versus 0.1% humic), only small differences in Hg flux were found to exist for samples with higher concentrations of humic acid (1%, 5%, and 100%). This effect was independent of the type of humic substance used, with both humic and fulvic acids showing an inhibitory effect on surface Hg emissions.  相似文献

CPMAS 13C NMR spectra of two estuarine sedimentary humic acids were recorded on a Bruker WP-SY 200 spectrometer. Both samples were found to contain similar aromatic and aliphatic carbon fractions. The sedimentary humic acids have unusually high methoxyl contents and more than one type of methoxyl is indicated. The high methoxyl content may be related to relatively low values for estuarine sedimentary humic acid-metal complexes. Carbohydrate contents of the humic acid samples were also found to be low.  相似文献

The acid-base properties of 14 standard and reference materials from the International Humic Substances Society (IHSS) were investigated by potentiometric titration. Titrations were conducted in 0.1 M NaCl under a nitrogen atmosphere, averaging 30 min from start to finish. Concentrations of carboxyl groups and phenolic groups were estimated directly from titration curves. Titration data were also fit to a modified Henderson-Hasselbalch model for two classes of proton-binding sites to obtain “best fit” parameters that describe proton-binding curves for the samples. The model was chosen for its simplicity, its ease of implementation in computer spreadsheets, and its excellent ability to describe the shapes of the titration curves. The carboxyl contents of the IHSS samples are in the general order: terrestrial fulvic acids > aquatic fulvic acids > Suwannee River natural organic matter (NOM) > aquatic humic acids > terrestrial humic acids. Overall, fulvic acids and humic acids have similar phenolic contents; however, all of the aquatically derived samples have higher phenolic contents than the terrestrially derived samples. The acid-base properties of reference Suwannee River NOM are surprisingly similar to those of standard Suwannee River humic acid. Results from titrations in this study were compared with other published results from both direct and indirect titrations. Typically, carboxyl contents for the IHSS samples were in agreement with the results from both methods of titration. Phenolic contents for the IHSS samples were comparable to those determined by direct titrations, but were significantly less than estimates of phenolic content that were based on indirect titrations with Ba(OH)2 and Ca(OAc)2. The average phenolic-to-carboxylic ratio of the IHSS samples is approximately 1:4. Models that assume a 1:2 ratio of phenolic-to-carboxylic groups may overestimate the relative contribution of phenolic groups to the acid-base chemistry of humic substances.  相似文献
