四氟乙烯齐聚体的反应 四氟乙烯四、五聚体和芳香胺的反应

前已报道四氟乙烯四聚体(全氟-3,4-甲基己烯-3)(1)、五聚体(全氟-3,4-二甲基-4-乙基己烯-2)(2)和脂肪烷氧以及脂肪胺的亲核反应.本文报道化合物1,2和芳香胺如苯胺、β-萘胺的反应.由于烯烃1、2双键处于分子中间,因而当亲核试剂进攻时,双键容易发生重排,生成的末端基烯烃更具反应性,故导致一取代、二取代、三取代以及环化降解等复杂产物.     

Direct introduction of a hydrazide group into a quartz crystal microbalance surface with dodecanoic hydrazide embedded in a hybrid bilayer membrane

Hydrazide group has a potential of immobilizing an antibody on a sensor surface in a way that ensures an optimal orientation and efficiency of the antibody. However, a multi-step chemical process, required for the preparation of a hydrazide group, is a barrier to its extensive application. This paper describes a new method to introduce a hydrazide group to a sensor surface by a one-step process using dodecanoic hydrazide. The method is based on an ability of the dodecanoic hydrazide to be incorporated into a hybrid bilayer membrane (HBM) layer, thereby presenting its hydrazide group to the surface. Liposome containing dodecanoic hydrazide was added to a hydrophobic self-assembled monolayer surface of a quartz crystal microbalance for the formation of a HBM. Then, the hydrazide group, presented in the surface of the HBM layer, was utilized for the oriented immobilization of an antibody via its carbohydrate moiety which was partially oxidized prior to the conjugation reaction. Activity and stable status of the incorporated dodecanoic hydrazide was revealed by the efficiency and reproducibility of the resulting immunosensor chip.     

Prediction of the effects of imperfect construction of a QMS filter

Modelling techniques have previously predicted the observed behaviour of perfectly manufactured QMS mass filters. These methods are extended to examination of the behaviour of imperfect QMS filters; this examination considers the behaviour of QMS filters with one rod displaced radially inward as this is a simple manufacturing defect that arises when a rod does not fit correctly into the mounting.The results demonstrate the well known, but poorly documented property, that exchanging the connections of a poorly performing QMS device sometimes improves performance. This is shown to arise because only a displacement of a y-rod produces a large effect. The results also show that displacement of a y-rod may produce a spurious additional peak known as a precursor. More detailed investigation suggests that precursors are not separate peaks but are formed because a section of the main peak is removed causing an apparent double peak.Finally results confirm that adjustment of the voltage applied to a displaced rod can be used to significantly improve the QMS behaviour. A small change by a fraction alpha in the position of a single rod may be compensated by a change of 2 x alpha in the voltage applied to that rod.     

Synthesis of the glycosyl lactol moiety of halichoblelide

The enantioselective synthesis of the 2-deoxy-α-l-fucosyl lactol moiety of halichoblelide, a potent cytotoxin isolated from an actinomycete of marine origin, was achieved using a diastereoselective addition of a dithianyl anion to a chiral aldehyde intermediate and a stereoselective glycosidation of a hydroxy lactone intermediate derived from the addition product with a protected l-fucal as the key steps.     

A novel method that improves sensitivity of protein detection in PAGE and Western blot

We have developed a simple and inexpensive method that improves sensitivity of protein and antigen detection in standard PAGE procedures. Our technique uses a sample microloader device with a funnel‐like structure, filled with a 4% stacking gel. When attach to the top of a polyacrylamide slab gel, the proteins in a sample are concentrated by electrophoresis into a small volume as they emerge from the device's narrow outlet. Our microloader has several advantages over previous devices, including simple assembly, high versatility, and absence of cross‐contamination between lanes. Addition of this device to a slab gel results in a fivefold increase in the sensitivity of antigen detection in a Western blot. As a result, less protein is required for loading and signal detection. Our protocol is a straightforward modification of a standard experimental technique, and is especially useful when only limited sample quantities are available.     

Photochromic reactions of diarylethenes in single crystals with intermolecular O--H...N hydrogen-bonding networks

The crystal structures and photochromic performance of a single crystal of a diarylethene derivative possessing carboxyl groups, 1,2-bis(5-carboxyl-2-methyl-3-thienyl)perfluorocyclopentene (1 a), and cocrystals of 1 a with 4,4'-, 2,4'-, and 2,2'-bipyridines were examined. In crystal 1 a, a discrete cyclic structure was observed, in which four 1 a molecules are linked through hydrogen bonds between the carboxyl groups. In the homocrystal, photoreactive and photoinactive conformers of 1 a exist in the ratio of 1:1. In the cocrystals of 1 a with bipyridines, O--HN-type hydrogen bonds between 1 a and pyridyl groups were formed, and all 1 a molecules are fixed in a photoreactive conformation. Both the homocrystal 1 a and the cocrystals showed photochromic performances, and color variation from bluish-violet to cyan was observed, depending on the conformation of the packed diarylethene molecules.     

CALCULATION OF THE YOUNG''''S MODULUS OF AN ADSORBED POLYMER LAYER

Polymer layers adsorbed to a surface or in a confined environment often change their mechanical properties. There is even the possibility of solidification of the confined layer. To judge the stiffness of such a layer, we used the Hertz model to calculate the Young's modulus of the polymer layer in the confinement of AFM experiments with silicon nitride tip with a radius of curvature of R≈50 nm and a glass sphere attached to the cantilever R = 5μm. Since there is no visible indentation of the layer in the AFM experiments, the layer is either penetrated very easily, or the indentation is too small to be seen in a force curve. The latter would be the case for a polymer layer with a Young's modulus above 4×108 Pa in case of an experiment with a silicon nitride tip and 4×105 Pa in case of a glass sphere.     

Controlled Dynamic Helicity of a Folded Macrocycle Based on a Bisterephthalamide with a Twofold Z‐Shaped Structure

Dynamic helicity in a folded macrocycle and control of the helical preference are described. We designed macrocycle 1 with a dual mode of folding through the integration of two flexible units that are arranged twice to form a cyclic structure. As a folding unit, we used a terephthalamide skeleton and a Z‐shaped hydrocarbon: the former acted as a control unit to induce a preference of a particular sense of dynamic helicity and the latter was just a spacer. A terephthalamide unit provided a binding site for capturing a ditopic hydrogen‐bonding guest when it adopted helically folded syn forms (M/P). Thus, only the terephthalamide unit controlled the helical sense of dynamic helicity in a folded macrocycle through the supramolecular transmission of chirality upon complexation with a chiral ditopic guest. In addition, chirality on a host could also contribute to the control of the helical preference in a folded macrocycle, which led to exceptionally enhanced chiroptical signals.     

Solid-phase synthesis of 5-arylhistidines via a microwave-assisted Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling

Microwave irradiation efficiently promoted the solid-phase Suzuki-Miyaura reaction of a 5-bromohistidine with various arylboronic acids in the presence of a palladium catalyst. This methodology allowed the synthesis of peptides bearing a histidine residue substituted at position 5 of the imidazole ring with a phenyl, a substituted phenyl, a pyridyl, or a thienyl ring, as well as with the benzene ring of a tyrosine residue.     

Solid‐State Hierarchical Cyclodextrin‐Based Supramolecular Polymer Constructed by Primary,Secondary, and Tertiary Azido Interactions

The crystallization of a di‐azido‐α‐cyclodextrin revealed a polymeric self‐assembly involving a variety of azido‐type interactions. The crystal arrangement relies on the cooperativity of a primary azido inclusion, a secondary azido–azido interaction involving an unprecedented distribution of canonical forms, and a tertiary azido–groove interaction. The second azido group brings in a major contribution to the supramolecular structure illustrating the benefit of a difunctionalization for the generation of hierarchy.     

Concise Total Synthesis of Enigmazole A

An efficient entry into the phosphorylated marine macrolide enigmazole A is described. Enigmazole A interferes with c‐Kit signaling by an as yet unknown mode of action and is therefore a potential lead in the quest for novel anticancer agents. Key to success is a gold‐catalyzed cascade comprising a [3,3]‐sigmatropic rearrangement of a propargyl acetate along the periphery of a macrocyclic scaffold, followed by a transannular hydroalkoxylation of the resulting transient allenyl acetate. This transformation mandated the use of a chiral gold catalyst to ensure a matching double‐asymmetric setting. Other noteworthy steps are the preparation of the oxazole building block by a palladium‐catalyzed C?H activation, as well as the smooth ring‐closing alkyne metathesis of a diyne substrate bearing a propargylic leaving group, which has only little precedent.     

Equilibrium between a vinylogous ylide and a phosphonium dienolate zwitterion: vinylogous Wittig olefination versus vinylogous aldol-type reaction

This paper describes the equilibrium established between a phosphonium dienolate zwitterion and a vinylogous phosphorus ylide, and their reactions with aldehydes. The reactions between ethyl 2-methyl-2,3-butadienoate and various aldehydes occur through either a phosphonium dienolate or a vinylogous ylide intermediate, depending on the presence/absence of a Lewis acid and the nature of the phosphine. We observed a rare vinylogous Wittig olefination from the reaction between ethyl 2-methyl-2,3-butadienoate and an electron-deficient aromatic aldehyde in the presence of a stoichiometric amount of an electron-deficient triarylphosphine and a catalytic amount of a Lewis acid (e.g., BF₃·Et₂O). On the other hand, the use of triphenylphosphine, in the absence of a Lewis acid, facilitated vinylogous aldol addition, accompanied by a rare 1,2-aryl phosphorus-to-carbon migration.     

STUDY ON A HYDROPHOBIC-HYDROPHILIC GRADIENT ROD

INTRODUCTIONGradient materials constitute a special case of various materials. The concentration of one of the components ofthe material, being chemically and/or physically different from other components, is allowed to change as afunction of its position in the sample, producing a predetermined gradient profile. The gradient material can be inany shape — i.e., linear, sigmoid, parabolic, flat or rod. Generally, this kind of material should have gradientsalong one direction in their stru…     

Boron/nitrogen substitution of the central carbon atoms of the biphenalenyl diradical π dimer: a novel 2e-12c bond and large NLO responses

On the basis of the famous staggered biphenalenyl diradical π dimer 1, the eclipsed biphenalenyl (1a), with no centrosymmetry, was obtained by rotating a layer of 1 by 60° around its central axis. Furthermore, the central carbon atoms of 1 and 1a were substituted by boron and nitrogen atoms to form 2 and 2a with a novel 2e-12c bond. We found that the novel 2e-12c bond is formed by the electron pair of the occupied orbital of the phenalenyl monomer substituted by the nitrogen atom and the unoccupied orbital of the phenalenyl monomer substituted by the boron atom. As a result of the novel 2e-12c bond, 2 and 2a exhibit a fascinating interlayer charge-transfer transition character, which results in a significant difference in the dipole moments (Δμ) between the ground state and the crucial excited state. The values of Δμ for 2 and 2a are 6.4315 and 6.9253 Debye, clearly larger than the values of 0 and 0.0015 Debye for 1 and 1a. Significantly, the boron/nitrogen substitution effect can greatly enhance the first hyperpolarizabilities (β(0) ) of 2 and 2a with a novel 2e-12c bond compared with 1 and 1a with a traditional 2e-12c bond: 0 and 19 a.u. for 1 and 1a are much lower than 3516 and 12272 a.u. for 2 and 2a. Furthermore, the interaction energies (E(int) )of 2 and 2a are larger than those of 1 and 1a, which could be considered as a signature of reliability for the newly designed dimers. Our present work will be beneficial for further theoretical and experimental studies on the properties of molecules with the novel 2e-12c bond.     

Palladium‐Catalyzed Reductive Coupling Reaction of Terminal Alkynes with Aryl Iodides Utilizing Hafnocene Difluoride as a Hafnium Hydride Precursor Leading to trans‐Alkenes

Herein, we describe a reductive cross‐coupling of alkynes and aryl iodides by using a novel catalytic system composed of a catalytic amount of palladium dichloride and a promoter precursor, hafnocene difluoride (Cp₂HfF₂, Cp=cyclopentadienyl anion), in the presence of a mild reducing reagent, a hydrosilane, leading to a one‐pot preparation of trans‐alkenes. In this process, a series of coupling reactions efficiently proceeds through the following three steps: (i) an initial formation of hafnocene hydride from hafnocene difluoride and the hydrosilane, (ii) a subsequent hydrohafnation toward alkynes, and (iii) a final transmetalation of the alkenyl hafnium species to a palladium complex. This reductive coupling could be chemoselectively applied to the preparation of trans‐alkenes with various functional groups, such as an alkyl group, a halogen, an ester, a nitro group, a heterocycle, a boronic ester, and an internal alkyne.     

Enthalpy of adsorption for hydrocarbons on concrete by inverse gas chromatography

Enthalpies of adsorption, ΔH(a), are reported for several light hydrocarbons on normal construction concrete. ΔH(a), which are a measure of the adhesion strength of a molecule on a surface, were determined by gas-solid chromatography with a packed column containing 60-80 mesh concrete particles. With this approach, the specific retention volume for a compound is measured as a function of temperature, and these data are used to calculate ΔH(a). For the hydrocarbons studied, we found that ΔH(a) was relatively large for unsaturated hydrocarbons. These are the first determinations of ΔH(a) of hydrocarbons on construction concrete, but useful comparisons with other ionic solids such as clays can be made.     

Total synthesis of the antitumor acetogenin mosin B: desymmetrization approach to the stereodivergent synthesis of threo/trans/erythro-type acetogenins

A total synthesis of the threo/trans/erythro-type acetogenin mosin B and one of its diastereomers has been achieved. The carbon skeleton is assembled in a convergent fashion from two segments (a THF ring segment and a gamma-lactone segment) through the Nozaki-Hiyama-Kishi reaction. The THF ring segment was stereoselectively constructed by a stereodivergent synthesis starting from a common intermediate (4-cyclohexene-1,2-diol) based on a desymmetrization strategy. The gamma-lactone segment was synthesized by coupling a triflate and a chiral alpha-sulfenyl gamma-lactone. By virtue of these synthetic results, we suggest that the absolute configuration of natural mosin B is 1 a. Antiproliferative effects of 1 a and 1 b were also investigated.     

Total Synthesis of Tetrodotoxin

A total synthesis of tetrodotoxin was accomplished. A Diels–Alder reaction between a known enone and a siloxy diene gave a tricyclic product, the steric bias of which was used to construct the remaining stereogenic centers. A nitrogen atom was introduced either by a four‐step sequence involving a Curtius rearrangement, or a three‐step sequence featuring a newly developed transformation of a terminal alkyne into a nitrile. Introduction of the guanidine moiety followed by the formation of the heterocyclic system by cascade reactions led to tetrodotoxin.     

Chalcogenide-Lewis acid mediated reactions of electron-deficient alkynes with aldehydes

Reactions of but-3-yn-2-one (2) with aldehydes 1 in the presence of a Lewis acid and dimethyl sulfide (3 a) predominantly gave (E)-alpha-(halomethylene)aldols 4-5 in high yields, while reactions of methyl propiolate (6 a) mainly afforded (Z)-3-halogeno-2-(hydroxymethyl)acrylates 7-8 in low to moderate yields. A reaction of dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate (10) with 1 a in the presence of TiCl(4) and 1,1,3,3-tetramethylthiourea (3 c) produced maleate (E)-11 (40 %) and butenolide 12 (40 %). When a reaction of 6 a with 1 a was carried out in the presence of TiBr(4) and 3 a (0.2 equiv) at -20 degrees C for 60 h, 3-(methylthio)-2-(hydroxyalkyl)acrylate 9 a was obtained in an 8 % yield. Experiments were conducted in order to elucidate the formation mechanism of 9 a, and it was made clear that 9 a was formed via the processes of the Michael addition of sulfide 3 a to alkynoate 6 a and an aldol reaction with 1 a and demethylation.     

Electrostatic interaction between a charge-regulated particle and a solid surface in electrolyte solution: effect of cationic electrolytes

The effect of cations on the electrostatic interaction between a negative charge-regulated particle and a solid surface of constant negative potential in electrolyte solution is analyzed. Here, we assume that the rate of approach of a particle to a solid surface is faster than that of the dissociation of the ionogenic groups on the surface of particle. In other words, the effect of the time-dependent dissociation of ionogenic groups on the surface of a particle is taken into account. The result of the present study reveals that, although the solid surface is negatively charged, the presence of cations in the suspension medium has a negative effect on the rate of adhesion. The qualitative behaviors in the variation of the interaction force between a particle and a solid surface as a function of separation distance between them predicted by a kinetic model and the corresponding equilibrium model and constant charge density model are entirely different. The rate of approach of a particle to a solid surface is on the order (constant charge density model)>(kinetic model)>(equilibrium model).
