Novel aza-bicyclic 2-isoxazolines, 4,5-dihydroisoxazole[5,4-b]pyrrolidines, and 4,5-dihydroisoxazole[5,4-b]piperidines were synthesized in a highly regioselective manner through a 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction of 5- and 6-membered endocyclic enecarbamates and enamides with several nitrile oxides in good to excellent yields. Hydrogenolysis of 5- and 6-membered Cbz-cycloadducts led to secondary amines, which presented distinctive stabilities. 2-Isoxazoline bisamides were obtained in good yields through a N-benzoylation, followed by ammonolysis of the secondary amine, or directly from ammonolysis of the cycloadducts. 相似文献
The structure of ‘lapachol peroxide’ was published by Hooker in 1936; however, we recently discovered a mistake in the originally proposed structure; the correct structure, according to X-ray spectroscopy, is given here. 相似文献
Homoallylic alcohols (primary, secondary, or tertiary containing an endocyclic or an exocyclic double bond) react with equimolar amounts of aldehydes (aliphatic or aromatic) and ketones (aliphatic) in the presence of 5 mol % of iodine. This Prins cyclization was used in the preparation of hexahydrobenzo[f]isochromenes and of a 4-hydroxy-tetrahydropyran, in 54-81% yield. The procedure is also efficient for an aza-Prins cyclization of a homoallylic sulfonamide and benzaldehyde, producing a hexahydrobenzo[f]isoquinoline. 相似文献
Skin as a manageable organ can provide direct or indirect information of tissue iron overload resulting from inherited disorders
as hemochromatosis. Patients with hemochromatosis were evaluated at three consecutive phases along the therapy programme.
Nuclear microprobe techniques were used to assess skin iron and Total Reflection X-ray Fluorescence to determine the plasma
iron concentrations. Results showed that iron pools were differently correlated at the three therapy phases. These variations
highlighted the value of skin iron content to assess organ iron deposition and therapy efficacy. Skin iron content can be
used for a better management of patients with iron overload pathologies. 相似文献
Alachlor has been widely used in agriculture all over the world. It is suggested that it may be a carcinogen and an environmental
estrogen. The aim of this work was to verify the degradation the alachlor by gamma radiation. Gamma radiation from 60Co was used to degrade the alachlor herbicide in water and methanol solution. The alachlor in water and alcohol solution in
the concentration of 100 mgL−1 was irradiated with doses of 0.25–50 kGy, at dose rate 5–6 and 2.7 kGyh−1. High performance liquid chromatography was used as an analytical technique to determine the degradation rate of herbicide
studied. 相似文献
The total Kjeldahl nitrogen (TKN) method was simplified by using a manifold connected to a purge-and-trap system immersed into an ultrasonic (US) bath for simultaneous ammonia (NH3) extraction from many previously digested samples. Then, ammonia was collected in an acidic solution, converted to ammonium (NH4+), and finally determined by ion chromatography method. Some variables were optimized, such as ultrasonic irradiation power and frequency, ultrasound-assisted NH3 extraction time, NH4+ mass and sulfuric acid concentration added to the NH3 collector flask. Recovery tests revealed no changes in the pH values and no conversion of NH4+ into other nitrogen species during the irradiation of NH4Cl solutions with 25 or 40 kHz ultrasonic waves for up to 20 min. Sediment and oil free sandstone samples and soil certified reference materials (NCS DC 73319, NCS DC 73321 and NCS DC 73326) with different total nitrogen concentrations were analysed. The proposed method is faster, simpler and more sensitive than the classical Kjeldahl steam distillation method. The time for NH3 extraction by the US-assisted purge-and-trap system (20 min) was half of that by the Kjeldahl steam distillation (40 min) for 10 previously digested samples. The detection limit was 9 μg g−1 N, while for the Kjeldahl classical/indophenol method was 58 μg g−1 N. Precision was always better than 13%. In the proposed method, carcinogenic reagents are not used, contrarily to the indophenol method. Furthermore, the proposed method can be adapted for fixed-NH4+ determination. 相似文献
A 23 factorial design and a CCD (Central Composite Design) were employed to optimize the operational conditions for determining Al, Ba, Ca, Cd, Cr, Cu, K, Mg, Na, Ni, Pb, Sn and Zn in soft drink samples by inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP OES). Satisfactory parameters of merit were obtained (Plasma stability, linearity, SBR, BEC, LOD and LOQ). The accuracy was evaluated by means of a recovery study. Thirty five soft drink samples were analyzed. The results obtained were used in an exploratory analysis, in which principal component analysis and cluster analysis were applied in order to differentiate the several soft drink classes. Adequate LOQ values were obtained for all elements (0.34 μg L− 1 for Ca to 88.7 μg L− 1 for Mg) and the recovery study results ranged between 80 and 100%. Cluster analysis revealed four sample classes characterized by flavor and other characteristics, such as being light, diet, low calorie or regular beverages. A model with 4 PCs was obtained by means of a principal component analysis, which explained 99.8% of the total variance. 相似文献
Pseudo-C-nucleosides have potential biological activity, and an efficient synthesis of new pseudo-C-nucleosides has been developed via the reaction of a β-formyl-α,β-unsaturated ester bearing a β-sugar moiety with hydrazines
in neutral and acidic conditions. The preparation of the β-formyl-α,β-unsaturated ester was accomplished by oxidation of the
secondary hydroxyl group of 3-O-benzyl-1,2-O-isopropylidene-α-d-glucofuranose, followed by elongation of its carbon chain with (ethoxycarbonylmethylene)triphenylphosphorane and oxidation
of the hydroxymethyl group. 相似文献
A novel and efficient analytical methodology is proposed for extracting and preconcentrating polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) from samples of environmental interest prior gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS) analysis. It is based on the induction of micellar organized medium by using a non-ionic surfactant (Triton X-114) to extract the target PBDEs. To enable coupling the efficient extracting technique with GC analysis, ultrasound-assisted back-extraction (UABE) into an organic solvent was required. Several factors, including surfactant type and concentration, equilibration temperature and time, ionic strength, pH and buffers nature and concentration were studied and optimized over the extraction efficiency of the proposed technique. Under optimal experimental conditions, the target analytes were quantitatively extracted achieving an enrichment factor of 250 when 10 mL aliquot of ultrapure water spiked with PBDE-standard mixture (10 pg mL−1 each PBDE) was extracted. Method detection limits (MDLs) calculated with aqueous PBDEs solutions as three times the signal-to-noise ratio (S/N), ranged from 1 to 2 pg mL−1 with RSDs values ≤8.5% (n = 5). The coefficients of estimation of the calibration curves obtained following the proposed methodology were ≥0.9987 and linear range of all PBDEs was 4–150 pg mL−1. The proposed methodology was validated by carrying out a recovery study by spiking the samples at two different concentration levels of PBDEs (10 and 50 pg mL−1 for waters samples). Recoveries values in the range of 96–106% for water samples were obtained showing satisfactory robustness of the method for analyzing PBDEs in water samples. The proposed methodology was applied for the analysis of PBDEs: 2,2′,4,4′-tetraBDE (BDE-47), 2,2′,4,4,5-pentaBDE (BDE-99), 2,2′,4,4,6-pentaBDE (BDE-100) and 2,2,4,4′,5,5′-hexaBDE (BDE-153) in water samples, including drinking, lake, river water and soil samples. Significant quantities of PBDEs were not found in the analyzed samples. 相似文献
A sensitive and rapid liquid chromatographic method was successfully developed and validated for the determination of sibutramine hydrochloride in bulk and capsules. Sibutramine in the presence of its degradation products was analyzed using UV detection at 225 nm. Chromatography was performed on a reversed-phase C8 (150 × 4.0 mm I.D., 5 μm) analytical column under isocratic conditions. The mobile phase was composed of acetonitrile:water (aqueous phase containing 0.3% triethylamine and pH adjusted to 7.0) (75:25, v/v) at a flow-rate of 1.1 mL min−1. No chromatographic interference was found during the analysis. Light was the stress condition which most contributed to sibutramine degradation. The method showed a linear response (r > 0.999) from 30 to 90 μg mL−1. The mean recovery for capsules was 101.2%. Inter-day assays showed relative standard deviations of 0.42 and 1.62% for bulk and capsules, respectively. The developed method is able to separate sibutramine from its major degradation products and it may be used in the quality control of this active pharmaceutical ingredient in both bulk and capsules.
