Simultaneous quantification of catecholamines in rat brain by high‐performance liquid chromatography with on‐line gold nanoparticle‐catalyzed luminol chemiluminescence detection

A new method based on high‐performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) coupled with on‐line gold nanoparticle‐catalyzed luminol chemiluminescence (CL) detection was developed for the simultaneous quantitation of catecholamines in rat brain. In the present CL system, gold nanoparticles were produced by the on‐line reaction of H₂O₂, NaHCO₃?Na₂CO₃ (buffer solution of luminol) and HAuCl_4. Norepinephrine (NE), epinephrine (EP) and dopamine (DA) could strongly enhance the CL signal of the on‐line gold nanoparticle‐catalyzed luminol system. The UV?visible absorption spectra and transmission electron microscopy studies were carried out, and the CL enhancement mechanism was proposed. Catecholamines promoted the on‐line formation of more gold nanoparticles, which better catalyzed the luminol–H₂O₂ CL reaction. The good separation of NE, EP and DA was achieved with isocratic elution using a mixture of methanol and 0.2% aqueous phosphoric acid (5:95, v/v) within 8.5 min. Under the optimized conditions, the detection limits, defined as a signal‐to‐noise ratio of 3, were in the range of 1.32–1.90 ng/mL, corresponding to 26.4?38.0 pg for 20 μL sample injection. The recoveries of catecholamines added to rat brain sample were >94.6%, with the precisions <5.5%. The validated HPLC?CL method was successfully applied to determine NE and DA in rat brain without prior sample purification. Copyright © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

L-脯氨酸独有的亚胺基使其在生物医药领域具有许多独特的功能,并广泛用作不对称有机化合物合成的有效催化剂。本文在碱性介质中研究了二（氢过碘酸）合银（III）配离子氧化 L-脯氨酸的反应。经质谱鉴定,脯氨酸氧化后的产物为脯氨酸脱羧生成的 γ-氨基丁酸盐;氧化反应对脯氨酸及Ag(III) 均为一级;二级速率常数 k′ 随 [IO₄^-] 浓度增加而减小,而与 [OHˉ] 的浓度几乎无关;推测反应机理应包括 [Ag(HIO₆)₂]^5-与 [Ag(HIO₆)(H₂O)(OH)]^2-之间的前期平衡,两种Ag（III）配离子均作为反应的活性组分,在速控步被完全去质子化的脯氨酸平行地还原,两速控步对应的活化参数为： k₁ (25 ^oC)＝1.87±0.04（mol·L^-1)^-1s^-1,∆ H₁^≠＝45±4 kJ · mol^-1, ∆ S₁^≠＝-90±13 J· K^-1·mol^-1 and k₂ (25 ^oC) ＝3.2±0.5（mol·L^-1)^-1s^-1, ∆ H₂^≠＝34±2 kJ · mol^-1, ∆ S₂^≠＝-122 ±10 J· K^-1·mol^-1。本文第一次发现 [Ag(HIO₆)₂]^5-配离子也具有氧化反应活性。     

Kinetic and mechanistic studies on the oxidation of pyrrolidine by bis(hydrogenperiodato)argentate(III) complex anion

The kinetics of oxidation of pyrrolidine by bis(hydrogenperiodato)argentate(III) complex anion ([Ag(HIO₆)₂]^5?) was studied in alkaline medium, with reaction temperatures in the range of 15.0–30.0 °C. The experiments indicated that the oxidation follows an overall second-order reaction, being first-order in both Ag(III) and pyrrolidine. The observed second-order rate constants, k′, decreased with increasing [IO₄ ^?] but increased slightly with increasing [OH^?]. The influence of ionic strength on the reaction rate was also investigated. The oxidation resulted in oxidative deamination of pyrrolidine, giving 4-hydroxybutyrate as the product. A reaction mechanism is proposed which includes an equilibrium between [Ag(HIO₆)₂]^5? and [Ag(HIO₆)₂(OH)(H₂O)]^2?; these two Ag(III) species are reduced by pyrrolidine in parallel rate-determining steps. The rate equation derived from the proposed mechanism can explain the experimental observations. The rate constants of the rate-determining steps, together with the associated activation parameters, were calculated accordingly.     

Diamminesilver(I) bis(2‐amino‐5‐nitrobenzoato‐κ2O1,O1′)silver(I): a two‐dimensional supramolecular sheet with a short intersheet distance containing a rare four‐coordinate planar silver(I) centre

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [Ag(NH₃)₂][Ag(C₇H₅N₂O₄)₂], comprises half an [Ag(NH₃)₂]⁺ cation and half an [Ag(anbz)₂]⁻ anion (anbz is 2‐amino‐5‐nitrobenzoate). Both Ag^I ions are located on inversion centres. The cation has a linear coordination geometry with two symmetry‐related ammine ligands. The Ag^I cation in the anionic part shows a rare four‐coordinate planar geometry completed by two chelating symmetry‐related anbz ligands. Intra‐ and intermolecular N—H...O hydrogen bonds create a slightly undulating two‐dimensional supramolecular sheet. Adjacent sheets are only ca 3.3 Å apart. Ag...O, Ag...N and π–π stacking interactions consolidate the packing of the molecules in the solid state.     

Determination of Gallic Acid by Flow Injection Analysis Based on Luminol‐AgNO3‐Ag NPs Chemiluminescence System

A novel flow injection procedure has been developed for the determination of gallic acid based on the enhancement function for luminol‐AgNO₃‐Ag NPs chemiluminescence (CL) system by gallic acid. The enhancement mechanism was proposed for the reinforcing effect of the gallic acid on the CL system. The UV‐vis absorption spectrum and CL emission spectrum were applied to confirm the mechanism. The method is simple, rapid and sensitive with a detection limit of 5×10^?10 g·mL^?1 and a linear range of 8.0×10^?10–1.0×10^?7 g·mL^?1. The relative standard deviation (RSD) is 1.3% for eleven measurements of 5×10^?8 g·mL^?1 gallic acid. The method has been successfully applied to the determination of gallic acid in Chinese proprietary medicine–Jianmin Yanhou tablets and synthesized samples.     

Analytical approach to determine biogenic amines in urine using microextraction in packed syringe and liquid chromatography coupled to electrochemical detection

The goal of this work was to develop and validate an analytical method for the detection and quantification of the biogenic amines serotonin (5‐HT), dopamine (DA) and norepinephrine (NE), using microextraction in packed syringe (MEPS) and liquid chromatography coupled to electrochemical detection (HPLC‐ED) in urine. The method was validated according to internationally accepted guidelines from the Food and Drug Administration. Linearity was established between 50 and 1000 ng/mL for 5‐HT and between 5 and 1000 ng/mL for DA and NE, with determination coefficients (R²) >0.99 for all compounds. The limits of quantification and detection were respectively 50 and 20 ng/mL for 5‐HT, and 5 and 2 ng/mL for DA and NE. Within‐ and between‐run precision ranged from 0.84 to 9.41%, while accuracy ranged from 0.79 to 12.76% for all compounds. The intermediate precision and accuracy were 1.50–8.36 and 0.54–13.51%, respectively. The method was found suitable for clinical routine analysis of the studied compounds, using a sample volume of 0.5 mL. This is the first study employing a commercially available MEPS column for the simultaneous detection and quantification of 5‐HT, DA and NE in urine by coulometric detection.

Lanthanide tris ( 2,6-dimethylphenolate ) s [ Ln ( ODMP)3 ] were used as iniliators for ring-opening polymerization of e-caprolac-tone (CL) for the first time. The influence of different rare earth elements and solvents was investigated. ^1H NMR spectral data of polycaprolactone (PCL) obtained showed that the poly-merization mechanism is in agreement with the coordination-in-sertion mechanism and the selective cleavage of the acyl-oxygen bond of CL.     

α-环糊精包结碳纳米管涂层电极同时测定多巴胺和肾上腺素

本文发现α-环糊精包结碳纳米管涂层电极对多巴胺（DA）和肾上腺素（EP）具有显著的增敏和电分离作用，还原峰电位差达390 mV。研究表明α-环糊精包结碳纳米管涂层薄膜表现出了非常令人感兴趣的电催化特性。因抗坏血酸（AA）在α-环糊精包结碳纳米管涂层电极上的氧化是不可逆的，因此利用还原峰进行测定，消除了AA对DA和EP的干扰。由于成本低和制作简便，该电极可用于生物系统电化学研究的生物传感器。     

Systematische Studie zu den Koordinationseigenschaften des Guanidin‐Liganden N1,N2‐Bis(1,3‐dimethylimidazolidin‐2‐yliden)‐ethan‐1,2‐diamin mit den Metallen Mn,Co, Ni,Ag und Cu

A Systematic Study on the Coordination Properties of the Guanidine Ligand N¹,N²‐Bis(1,3‐dimethylimidazolidin‐2‐ylidene)‐ethane‐1,2‐diamine with the Metals Mn, Co, Ni, Ag and Cu The syntheses and characterization of the compounds [Mn(DMEG₂e)Cl₂] ( 1 ), [Co(DMEG₂e)Cl₂] ( 2 ), [Ni(DMEG₂e)₂]I₂ ( 3 ), [Cu(DMEG₂e)I] ( 4 ) and {[Ag(DMEG₂e)]BF₄}_n ( 5 ) with the bisguanidine ligand N¹,N²‐bis(1,3‐dimethylimidazolidin‐2‐ylidene)ethane‐1,2‐diamine (DMEG₂e) are described. All complexes are synthesized by the reaction of the corresponding metal salt with the DMEG₂e ligand in MeCN or THF. The coordination of the metal atoms vary from a distorted tetrahedron in 1 and 2 , a distorted trigonal planar coordination in 4 to linear coordination in 5 . Contrasting to the compounds 1 , 2 , 4 and 5 which exhibit a 1:1 ratio of metal to ligand, two DMEG₂e ligands are bound to the Ni atom in the case of 3 resulting in a coordination polyhedron which represents the stage exactly in the middle between the square‐planar and the tetrahedral geometry. Whereas crystals of 1 , 2 , 3 and 4 contain discrete molecules, in 5 the Ag atoms are alternately linked by two different DMEG₂e ligands to form a chain structure. The comparative discussion of several DMEG₂e containing complexes with the compounds reported herein supplements this systematic study.     

Simultaneous Determination of Epinephrine, Noradrenaline and Dopamine in Human Serum Samples by High Performance Liquid Chromatography with Chemiluminescence Detection

A simple, rapid and accurate high performance liquid chromatographic （HPLC） technique coupled with chemiluminescence （CL） detection was developed for the simultaneous determination of epinephrine （E）, noradrenaline （NA） and dopamine （DA）. It was based on the analyte enhancement effect on the CL reaction between luminol and potassium ferricyanide. The effects of various parameters, such as potassium ferricyanide concentration, luminol concentration, pH value and component of the mobile phase on chromatographic behaviors of the analytes （E, NA and DA） were investigated. The separation was carded out on C18 column using the mobile phase of 0.01 mol/L potassium hydrogen phthalate solution and methanol （92 ： 8, V/V）. Under the optimum condi- tions, E, NA and DA showed good linear relationships in the range of 1 × 10^-8 -5 × 10^-6, 5.0× 10^-9 -1.0× 10^-6 and 5.0×10^-9-1.0× 10^-6 g]mL respectively. The detection limits for E, NA and DA were 4.0×10^-9, 1.0× 10^-9 and 8.0 × 10^-10 g/mL. The proposed method has been applied successfully to the analysis of E, NA and DA in human serum samples.     

catena‐Poly[[silver(I)‐μ‐[9,10‐bis(1H‐benzimidazol‐1‐ylmethyl)anthracene]‐κ2N3:N3′] bis(nitrato‐κO)silver(I)]

Yellow needle‐shaped crystals of the title compound, {[Ag(C₃₀H₂₂N₄)][Ag(NO₃)₂]}_n, were obtained by the reaction of AgNO₃ and 9,10‐bis(benzimidazol‐1‐ylmethyl)anthracene (L) in a 2:1 ratio. The asymmetric unit consists of two Ag^I cations, one half L ligand and one nitrate anion. One Ag^I cation occupies a crystallographic inversion centre and links two N‐atom donors of two distinct L ligands to form an infinite one‐dimensional coordination polymer. The second Ag^I cation lies on a crystallographic twofold axis and is coordinated by two O‐atom donors of two nitrate anions to form an [Ag(NO₃)₂]⁻ counter‐ion. The polymeric chains are linked into a supramolecular framework via weak Ag...O [3.124 (5) Å] and Ag...π (2.982 Å) interactions (π is the centroid of an outer anthracene benzene ring). The π interactions contain two short Ag...C contacts [2.727 (6) and 2.765 (6) Å], which can be considered to define Ag–η²‐anthracene bonding interactions. In comparison with a previously reported binuclear Ag^I complex [Du, Hu, Zhang, Zeng & Bu (2008). CrystEngComm, 10 , 1866–1874], this new one‐dimensional coordination polymer was obtained by changing the metal–ligand ratio during the synthesis.     

catena‐Poly­[[(di‐2‐pyridyl­amine)­silver(I)]‐μ‐nicotinato] and catena‐poly­[[(di‐2‐pyridyl­amine)silver(I)]‐μ‐2,6‐di­hydroxy­benzoato]

In catena‐poly­[[(di‐2‐pyridyl­amine‐κ²N,N′)silver(I)]‐μ‐nico­tinato‐κ²N:O], [Ag(C₆H₄NO₂)(C₁₀H₉N₃)]_n, the Ag^I atom is tetracoordinated by two N atoms from the di‐2‐pyridyl­amine (BPA) ligand [Ag—N = 2.3785 (18) and 2.3298 (18) Å] and by one N atom and one carboxyl­ate O atom from nicotinate ligands [Ag—N = 2.2827 (15) Å and Ag—O = 2.3636 (14) Å]. Bridging by nicotinate N and O atoms generates a polymeric chain structure, which extends along [100]. The carboxyl O atom not bonded to the Ag atom takes part in an intrachain C—H⋯O hydrogen bond, further stabilizing the chain. Pairs of chains are linked by N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds to generate ribbons. There are no π–π interactions in this complex. In catena‐poly­[[(di‐2‐pyridyl­amine‐κ²N,N′)silver(I)]‐μ‐2,6‐di­hydroxy­benzoato‐κ²O¹:O²], [Ag(C₇H₅O₄)(C₁₀H₉N₃)]_n, the Ag^I atom has a distorted tetrahedral coordination, with three strong bonds to two pyridine N atoms from the BPA ligand [Ag—N = 2.286 (5) and 2.320 (5) Å] and to one carboxyl­ate O atom from the 2,6‐di­hydroxy­benzoate ligand [Ag—O = 2.222 (4) Å]; the fourth, weaker, Ag‐atom coordination is to one of the phenol O atoms [Ag⋯O = 2.703 (4) Å] of an adjacent moiety, and this interaction generates a polymeric chain along [100]. Pairs of chains are linked about inversion centers by N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds to form ribbons, within which there are π–π interactions. The ribbons are linked about inversion centers by pairs of C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds and additional π–π interactions between inversion‐related pairs of 2,6‐di­hydroxy­benzoate ligands to generate a three‐dimensional network.     

Structurally rigid bis(pyrazolyl)pyridine Zn(II) and Cu(II) complexes: Structures and kinetic studies in ring‐opening polymerization of ε‐caprolactone

Four bis(pyrazolyl)pyridine Zn(II) and Cu(II) carboxylate complexes have been structurally elucidated and used as initiators in the ring‐opening polymerization (ROP) of ε‐carprolactone (ε‐CL). Reactions of bis(3,5‐dimethyl‐pyrazol‐1‐yl)pyridine ( L1 ) with the appropriate Zn(II) and Cu(II) carboxylates afforded the corresponding complexes; [Zn(L1)(C₆H₅COO)₂] ( 1 ), [Zn(L1)(2‐Cl‐C₆H₄COO)₂] ( 2 ), [Zn(L1)(OAc)₂] ( 3 ) and [Cu(L1)(OAc)₂] ( 4 ) in moderate to good yields. Molecular structures of compounds 1 , 2 , 3 confirmed the presence of one tridentate bound ligand L1 in the metal coordination sphere and two carboxylate anions to give five coordination number around Zn(II) and Cu(II) atoms. Complexes 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 initiated the ROP of ε‐CL at 110 °C to give polymers of moderate molecular weights. Kinetic analyses of the ROP reactions indicate pseudo ‐first‐order dependency on ε‐CL monomer and initiator. ¹H NMR and mass spectral data established a coordination insertion mechanistic pathway and behaviour of 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 as initiators in the ROP of ε‐CL.

Tellurium‐Halogen Secondary Bonding in the Crystal Structures of [Q]+[PhTeCl4]— (Q = C5NH6, 2‐Br‐C5NH5, {2‐Br‐C5NH5}{Co(NH3)4Cl2})

The reaction of diphenylditelluride with pyridine, 2‐bromopyridine or 2‐bromopyridine/tetraamminedichlorocobalt(III) chloride in 12 M hydrochloric acid afforded the tetrachlorophenyltellurate(IV) compounds [C₅NH₆][PhTeCl₄] ( 1 ), [2‐Br‐C₅NH₅] [PhTeCl₄] ( 2 ), and [{2‐Br‐C₅NH₅}{Co(NH₃)₄Cl₂}] [PhTeCl₄]₂ ( 3 ). They were all characterized structurally by single crystal X‐ray diffraction. In all structures, the arrangement about the tellurium atoms is square pyramidal. The [PhTeCl₄]^— anions in 1 and 2 form trimeric and dimeric units, respectively, through Te···Cl secondary bonding. Compound 3 shows an unusual face‐to‐face packing of the [PhTeCl₄]^—anions with hydrogen bonding to the bromopyridium cation.     

Bis(di‐2‐pyridylamine‐κ2N2,N2′)silver(I) trifluoromethanesulfonate: polar arrangement of trifluoromethanesulfonate anions in a pseudo‐centrosymmetric framework of coordination cations

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [Ag(C₁₀H₉N₂)₂]CF₃SO₃ or [Ag(dpa)₂]OTf (dpa is di‐2‐pyridylamine and OTf is the trifluoromethanesulfonate anion), contains two [Ag(dpa)₂]⁺ coordination cations and two OTf anions. The coordination geometry of the Ag^I atom is intermediate between square‐planar and tetrahedral, with similar deformations at the two symmetry‐independent metal centres. The dpa ligands coordinate in a bidentate chelating mode. The OTf anions are in the outer coordination sphere and bridge the coordination cations via N—H...O interactions to form two symmetry‐independent hydrogen‐bonded chains. The [Ag(dpa)₂]⁺ cations are arranged via interactions involving the aromatic groups into a pseudo‐centrosymmetric three‐dimensional framework with two types of channels, each confining congeners of one of the symmetry‐independent anions. The most interesting feature of this structure is its bulk polarity resulting from an approximately parallel alignment of the anions in the channels.     

The heterometallic cadmium–silver complex cis‐bis[dicyanidoargentato(I)‐κN]bis(5,5′‐dimethyl‐2,2′‐bipyridyl‐κ2N,N′)cadmium(II) monohydrate

In the title complex, [Ag₂Cd(CN)₄(C₁₂H₁₂N₂)₂]·H₂O or cis‐[Cd{Ag(CN)₂}₂(5,5′‐dmbpy)₂]·H₂O, where 5,5′‐dmbpy is 5,5′‐dimethyl‐2,2′‐bipyridyl, the asymmetric unit consists of a discrete neutral [Cd{Ag(CN)₂}₂(5,5′‐dmbpy)₂] unit and a solvent water molecule. The Cd^II cation is coordinated by two bidentate chelate 5,5′‐dmbpy ligands and two monodentate [Ag^I(CN)₂]⁻ anions, which are in a cis arrangement around the Cd^II cation, leading to an octahedral CdN₆ geometry. The overall structure is stabilized by a combination of intermolecular hydrogen bonding, and Ag^I...Ag^I and π–π interactions, forming a three‐dimensional supramolecular network.     

Bis(3,5‐di­methyl­pyrazole‐κN2)silver(I) nitrate

The two independent bis(3,5‐di­methyl­pyrazole)silver(I) cations in crystalline [Ag(C₅H₇N₂)₂]NO₃ display N—Ag—N angles of 175.51 (14) and 174.44 (13)°, and an average Ag—N distance of 2.124 (5) Å. The nitrate anion is situated between [Ag(C₅H₇N₂)₂]⁺ units and interacts via hydrogen bonds with the NH groups. The two 3,5‐di­methyl­pyrazole ligands are trans about the silver center. Only a small deviation from linearity is observed in the coordination around silver.     

Chirale Halbsandwich‐Pentamethylcyclopentadienyl‐Rhodium(III)‐ und Iridium(III)‐Komplexe mit Schiff‐Basen aus Salicylaldehyd und α‐Aminosäureestern [1]

Chiral Half‐sandwich Pentamethylcyclopentadienyl Rhodium(III) and Iridium(III) Complexes with Schiff Bases from Salicylaldehyde and α‐Amino Acid Esters [1] A series of diastereoisomeric half‐sandwich complexes with Schiff bases from salicylaldehyde and L‐α‐amino acid esters including chiral metal atoms, [(η⁵‐C₅H₅)(Cl)M(N,O‐Schiff base)], has been obtained from chloro bridged complexes [(η⁵‐C₅Me₅)(Cl)M(μ‐Cl)]₂ (M = Rh, Ir). Abstraction of chloride from these complexes with Ag[BF₄] or Ag[SO₃CF₃] affords the highly sensitive compounds [(η⁵‐C₅Me₅)M(N,O‐Schiff base]⁺X^? (M = Rh, Ir; X = BF₄, CF₃SO₃) to which PPh₃ can be added under formation of [(η⁵‐C₅Me₅)M(PPh₃)(N,O‐Schiff base)]⁺X^?. The diastereoisomeric ratio of the complexes ( 1 ‐ 7 and 11 ‐ 12 ) has been determined from NMR spectra.     

Enhanced Microchip Electrophoresis of Neurotransmitters on Glucose Oxidase Modified Poly(dimethylsiloxane) Microfluidic Devices

In this paper, glucose oxidase (GOx) was employed to construct a functional film on the poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) microfluidic channel surface and apply to perform electrophoresis coupled with in‐channel electrochemical detection. The film was formed by sequentially immobilizing poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride) (PDDA) and GOx to the microfluidic channel surface via layer‐by‐layer (LBL) assembly. A group of neurotransmitters (5‐hydroxytryptamine, 5‐HT; dopamine, DA; epinephrine, EP; dobuamine, DBA) as a group of separation model was used to evaluate the effect of the functional PDMS microfluidic devices. Electroosmotic flow (EOF) in the modified PDMS microchannel was well suppressed compared with that in the native one. Experimental conditions were optimized in detail. As expected, these analytes were efficiently separated within 110 s in a 3.7 cm long separation channel and successfully detected at a single carbon fiber electrode. Good performances were attributed to the decreased EOF and the interactions of analytes with the immobilized GOx on the PDMS surface. The theoretical plate numbers were 2.19×10⁵, 1.89×10⁵, 1.76×10⁵, and 1.51×10⁵ N/m at the separation voltage of 1000 V with the detection limits of 1.6, 2.0, 2.5 and 6.8 μM (S/N=3) for DA, 5‐HT, EP and DBA, respectively. In addition, the modified PDMS channels had long‐term stability and excellent reproducibility.
