RbLn2F7的水热合成及RbLn2F7:Eu3+(Ln=Gd,Y)的VUV光谱

利用水热方法合成出RbLn2F7（Ln=Gd，Y，Er，Yb和Lu），均为六方RbEr2F7型结构。掺杂Eu^3＋离子样品的光谱表明水热产物中氧杂质含量极低。在RbGd2F7：Eu^3＋（0．5mol％）的激发光谱中只观测到Gd^3＋离子f-f跃迁，Eu^3＋离子的激发跃迁很弱。激发Gd^3＋离子到^6IJ能级后，观测到Eu^3＋离子的特征发射，Gd^3＋离子与Eu^3＋离子之间存在能量传递过程。Eu^3＋离子的^5D0→^7F1和^5D0→F2跃迁发射较强，表明稀土离子在六方HbLn2F7中处于非中心对称的格位。     

镧系三氟化物的SCF-Xα-SW研究

对10个镧系元素(Ln)三氟化物进行了非相对论和相对论SCF-Xα-SW计算, 通过能级、轨道、结合能及布居数对比, 讨论化学键本质: 共价键中4f轨道的作用及相对论效应,结果表明, LnF3中Ln原子轨道参与成键的次序是: 轻稀土d>f>p>s, 而重稀土则有f>d>p>s。相对效应使Ln4f能级上移, 扩大了与F2p能级的距离, 减弱成键。原子序数增大, Ln4f能级下移, F2p能级距离缩小, 使重稀土氟化物中成键增强, 结合能计算值与实验值定性趋势一致, 重稀土氟化物电离能的计算表明, 相对论方案是获得定量符合所应该采用的。

LiYF4：Ce^3＋晶体的电子结构和f→d电子跃迁谱

利用相对论从头目恰计算DV—Xa(离散变化Xa)程序计算LiYF4：Ce^3 晶体的电子结构和f→d电子跃迁谱。分别用镶嵌于微晶(含1938个原子)中的团簇Y5Li8F24和CeY4Li8F24模拟基质和掺杂晶体。基态计算表明Y-4p和Ce-5d共同组成了导带，Ce^3 的最低5d能级Ed在BCB(导带底部)附近，而其最低4f能级较BCB低2．5eV。即使对低于BCB的能级Ed，其波函还含有24％的Y-4p和9％的F-2p。这可能就是文献[3]采用纯5d波函数进行晶场拟合不十分成功的原因。而关于f→d跃迁，本文采用过渡态(使单电子跃迁的初末态各占据一半电子)计算去获得各4f→5d跃迁能Efd。Ce^3 的离子半径比Y^3 的大。作为晶格畸变的近拟模拟，让最近邻和次近邻的8个氟离子同时沿径向向外移动，结果发现：向外畸变4．56％的CeY4Li8F24团簇有最低的总能，且由此算出与实验十分符合的5个Efd能级，但是其基态计算的能级Ed比BCB高0．68eV；对于另外一个畸变7．36％的团簇，虽其Ed比BCB低0．43eV，使仅观测到最低f→d带的精细结构(包括零声子线)的实验较易理解，但其计算的各Efd能量分裂不如前者。因此，畸变应在4．56％-7．36％左右。

Oxazinethione Derivatives as a Precursor to Pyrazolone and Pyrimidine Derivatives: Synthesis,Biological Activities,Molecular Modeling,ADME, and Molecular Dynamics Studies

In this study, we used oxazinethione as a perfect precursor to synthesize new pyrimidine and pyrazole derivatives with potent biological activities. Biological activities were determined for all compounds against A. flavus, E. coli, S. aureus, and F. moniliform. Compounds 3, 4a-b, and 5 exhibited higher activities toward A. flavus, E. coli, S. aureus, and F. moniliform; this was indicated through the MIC (minimum inhibitory concentration). At the same time, anticancer activities were determined through four cell lines, Ovcar-3, Hela, MCF-7, and LCC-MMk. The results obtained indicated that compound 5 was the most potent compound for both cell lines. Molecular docking was studied by the MOE (molecular operating environment). The in silico ADME of compounds 2 and 5 showed good pharmacokinetic properties. The present research strengthens the applicability of these compounds as encouraging anticancer and antibacterial drugs. Moreover, JAGUAR module MD simulations were carried out at about 100 ns. In addition, spectroscopic studies were carried out to establish the reactions of the synthesized structure derivatives.     

Preparative isolation of four ginsenosides from Korean red ginseng (steam-treated Panax ginseng C. A. Meyer), by high-speed counter-current chromatography coupled with evaporative light scattering detection

Ginseng (Panax ginseng C. A. Meyer) has been well known to have a variety of ginsenosides that show diverse biological activities. Especially, the components of ginsenosides are quite different depending on the processing method. Recently, there have been several reports showing that less polar ginsenosides from Korean red ginseng (steam-treated Panax ginseng) have potent biological activities such as radical scavenging, vasodilating and anti-tumor activities. In this study, we have isolated four known ginsenosides Rg3, Rk1, Rg5 and F4 from Korean red ginseng by high-speed counter-current chromatography (HSCCC) coupled with evaporative light scattering detection (ELSD). The enriched saponin fraction (350 mg) was separated by using methylene chloride-methanol-water-isopropanol (6:6:4:1, v/v) as the two-phase solvent system and yielded 28.6 mg of Rg5, 26.6 mg of Rk1, 32.2 mg of Rg3 and 8.1 mg of F4. The purity of these ginsenosides was assessed by HPLC-ELSD to be over 95%, and their structures were characterized by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS), (1)H NMR and (13)C NMR.     

Inhibition of melanogenesis versus antioxidant properties of essential oil extracted from leaves of Vitex negundo Linn and chemical composition analysis by GC-MS

This study was aimed at investigating the antimelanogenic and antioxidative properties of the essential oil extracted from leaves of V. negundo Linn and the analysis of the chemical composition of this essential oil. The efficacy of the essential oil was evaluated spectrophotometrically, whereas the volatile chemical compounds in the essential oil were analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The results revealed that the essential oil effectively suppresses murine B16F10 tyrosinase activity and decreases the amount of melanin in a dose-dependent manner. Additionally, the essential oil significantly scavenged 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) (ABTS) radicals, and showed potent reducing power versus metal-ion chelating properties in a dose-dependent pattern. The chemical constituents in the essential oil are sesquiterpenes (44.41%), monoterpenes (19.25%), esters (14.77%), alcohols (8.53%), aromatic compound (5.90%), ketone (4.96%), ethers (0.4%) that together account for 98.22% of its chemical composition. It is predicted that the aromatic compound in the essential oil may contribute to its antioxidant activities. The results indicated that essential oil extracted from V. negundo Linn leaves decreased melanin production in B16F10 melanoma cells and showed potent antioxidant activities. The essential oil can thereby serve as an inhibitor of melanin synthesis and could also act as a natural antioxidant.     

Microbial Transformation and Biological Activities of the Prenylated Aromatic Compounds from Broussonetia kazinoki

Broussonetia kazinoki has been used as a traditional medicine for the treatment of burns and acne, and its extracts have been found to show tyrosinase inhibitory and anticancer activities. In this study, the tyrosinase inhibitory and cytotoxic activities of B. kazinoki were explored, leading to the isolation of kazinol C (1), kazinol E (2), kazinol F (3), broussonol N (4), and kazinol X (5), of which the compounds 4 and 5 have not been previously reported. Microbial transformation has been recognized as an efficient tool to generate more active metabolites. Microbial transformation of the major compounds 1 and 3 was conducted with Mucor hiemalis, where four glucosylated metabolites (6–9) were produced from 1, while one hydroxylated (10) and one glucosylated (11) metabolites were obtained from 3. Structures of the isolated metabolites were determined by extensive spectroscopic analyses. All compounds were evaluated for their tyrosinase inhibitory and cytotoxic activities. Compound 3 and its metabolites, kazinol Y (10) and kazinol F-4″-O-β-d-glucopyranoside (11), exhibited the most potent tyrosinase inhibitory activities with the IC₅₀ values ranging from 0.71 to 3.36 µM. Meanwhile, none of the metabolites, except for kazinol C-2′,3″-di-O-β-d-glucopyranoside (7), showed moderate cytotoxic activities (IC₅₀ 17.80 to 24.22 µM) against A375P, B16F10 and B16F1 cell lines.     

Modular alpha-helical mimetics with antiviral activity against respiratory syncitial virus

A 13-residue peptide sequence from a respiratory syncitial virus fusion protein was constrained in an alpha-helical conformation by fusing two back-to-back cyclic alpha-turn mimetics. The resulting peptide, Ac-(3-->7; 8-->12)-bicyclo-FP[KDEFD][KSIRD]V-NH(2), was highly alpha-helical in water by CD and NMR spectroscopy, correctly positioning crucial binding residues (F488, I491, V493) on one face of the helix and side chain-side chain linkers on a noninteracting face of the helix. This compound displayed potent activity in both a recombinant fusion assay and an RSV antiviral assay (IC(50) = 36 nM) and demonstrates for the first time that back-to-back modular alpha-helix mimetics can produce functional antagonists of important protein-protein interactions.     

Cinnamyl derivatives: synthesis and factor Xa (FXa) inhibitory activities

To develop a potent and oral anticoagulant, a series of compounds with cinnamyl moiety was synthesized and their factor Xa (FXa) inhibitory activities were examined. As a result, some cinnamyl derivatives showed potent FXa inhibitory activities in vitro. Among them, compounds with substituent at the 3-position on the central benzene ring represented by (N-{4-[1-(acetimidoyl)piperidin-4-yloxy]-3-chlorophenyl}-N-[(E)-3-(3-amidinophenyl)-2-propenyl]sulfamoyl)acetic acid dihydrochloride (45b) and (N-{4-[1-(acetimidoyl)piperidin-4-yloxy]-3-carbamoylphenyl}-N-[(E)-3-(3-amidinophenyl)-2-propenyl]sulfamoyl)acetic acid dihydrochloride (45j) exhibited potent FXa inhibitory activities with IC(50) values of less than 10 nM in vitro. These compounds also showed potent anticoagulant activities both in vitro and ex vivo. Furthermore, these compounds exhibited no lethal toxicity (30 mg/kg, i.v.).     

Ultrafast fluorescence resonance energy transfer in a reverse micelle: excitation wavelength dependence

Fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) from coumarin 480 (C480) to fluorescein 548 (F548) in a sodium dioctyl sulfosuccinate (AOT) reverse micelle is studied by picosecond and femtosecond emission spectroscopy. In bulk water, at the low concentration of the donor (C480) and the acceptor (F548), no FRET is observed. However, when the donor (C480) and the acceptor (F548) are confined in a AOT reverse micelle very fast FRET is observed. The time constants of FRET were obtained from the rise time of the emission of the acceptor (F548). In a AOT microemulsion, FRET is found to occur in multiple time scales--3, 200, and 2700 ps. The 3 ps component is assigned to FRET in the water pool of the reverse micelle with a donor-acceptor distance, 16 A. The 200 ps component corresponds to a donor-acceptor distance of 30 A and is ascribed to the negatively charged acceptor inside the water pool and the neutral donor inside the alkyl chains of AOT. The very long 2700 ps component may arise due to FRET from a donor outside the micelle to an acceptor inside the water pool and also from diffusion of the donor from bulk heptane to the reverse micelle. With increase in the excitation wavelength from 375 to 405 nm the relative contribution of the FRET due to C480 in the AOT reverse micelle (the 3 and 200 ps components) increases.     

Enzyme inhibiting lignans from Vitex negundo

Two new lignans trivially named negundins A (1) and B (2), were isolated along with (+)-diasyringaresinol (3), (+)-lyoniresinol (4), vitrofolal E (5) and vitrofolal F (6), reported for the first time from this species. The structures of the new compounds were established through spectral studies. Compound 2 showed potent inhibitory activity against lipoxygenase enzyme, while 5 showed moderate activity against butyryl-cholinesterase.     

Tyrosinase inhibitory constituents from the bark of Peltophorum dasyrachis (yellow batai)

Tyrosinase inhibitory activity-guided fractionation of the bark of Peltophorum dasyrachis (yellow batai) led to the isolation of the six active compounds which were characterised as six flavonoids: apigenin (1), (+)-2,3-trans-dihydrokaempferol (2), (+)-2,3-trans-dihydrokaempferol-3-O-α-L-rhamnoside (3), (+)-4',7-dimethoxy-2,3-trans-dihydroquercetin (4), (+)-2,3-trans-dihydroquercetin (5) and (-)-2,3-trans-dihydroquercetin-3-O-α-L-rhamnoside (6). All compounds were isolated for the first time from the bark of P. dasyrachis. Moreover, all compounds were evaluated for tyrosinase activities towards L-DOPA as the substrate. We observed that compounds 2 and 5 showed potent inhibitory effects (IC?? values were 126?±?3.2 and 210?±?5.8?μM, respectively). In general, for flavonoids the 3',4'-dihydroxy group's substituent is a more potent inhibitor than the 4'-hydroxy group substituent, i.e. quercetin?>?kaempferol. Interestingly, our result in the oxidation of L-DOPA showed that the 4'-hydroxy group substituent (compound 2) is a more potent inhibitor than the 3',4'-dihydroxy group substituent (compound 5). This result showed a new relationship between tyrosinase inhibitory activities and flavonoids. The kinetic analyses by Lineweaver-Burk plots showed that both the compounds 2 and 5 behaved as competitive inhibitors of L-DOPA oxidation.
