Benzylation of Aromatic Compounds with Benzyl Chloride Catalyzed by Nafion/SiO_2 Nanocomposite Catalyst

Diphenylmethane and substituted diphenylmethane are important compounds forsynthesis chemistry as well as industrial chemistry. These compounds are easilysynthesized by the benzylation of aromatic compounds with benzyl chloride or benzylalcohol catalyzed by homogeneous acid catalysts, such as AlCl3, FeCl3, H2SO4, HF andBF3. However, these catalytic systems are highly corrosive, and usually proceed withlow selectivity. In addition, they are less satisfactory from the environmen…

MORPHOLOGY OF A THERMOTROPIC AROMATIC POLYESTER

The crystalline morphology of a thermotropic aromatic polyester has been studied by microscopy techniques. Spherulites with ringed structure under polarizing micioscope were observed for solution cast specimens, They were composed of radially growing crystalline lamellae of thickness around 100. It was found that the molecules were packed in the thickness direction. Banded texture was observed in randomly packed domains for melt cast specimens. The bands have the same width and internal structure as those usually observed in oriented specimens of these polymers obtained by shearing their mesomorphic melt.

Direct transformation of ice VII′ to low-density amorphous ice

Vibrational spectra reveal that ice VII′ transforms to low-density amorphous ice (LDA) at low temperature on release of pressure to ambient pressure and low temperature. The measurements were obtained using in situ Raman spectroscopy of samples of ice VII′ as a function of pressure at 135 K. The observation of this direct decompression-induced VII′-LDA transition complements the previously observed pressure-induced reversible transition between LDA and high-density amorphous ice (HDA) at 120–140 K and the temperature-induced amorphization of metastable ice VII and ice VIII at 0.1 MPa.     

Measurement of dioxygen by electrocatalytic reduction on microelectrodes modified with Nafion and methyl viologen

Nafion/methyl viologen (MV) has been chemically modified on a gold disk microelectrode (GDME). The electrochemistry of the Nafion/MV modified GDME is investigated by cyclic voltammetry (CV). Linear sweep voltammetry (LSV) and differential pulse amperometry (DPA) show that the Nafion/MV modified GDME exhibits very high electrocatalytic activity toward dioxygen reduction with good reproducibility and high sensitivity. The electrocatalytic peak current is found to be linear with the dioxygen concentration in the range of 3.44x10(-7) to 2.59x10(-4) mol l(-1) (at 25 degrees C), with a correlation coefficient of 0.9978. The detection limit (signal/noise=3) is calculated to be 0.19 mumol l(-1). The response time of the microsensor for dioxygen measurement is less than 15 s. For ten parallel measurements for 8.50 mumol l(-1) dioxygen, the relative standard deviation (RSD) is found to be 2.7%. The sensitivity of the microsensor is 0.17 nA mumol(-1) l(-1). This microsensor has been successfully employed to measure the concentration of dioxygen in real samples. The quantity of dioxygen, released from the three kinds of chloroplasts of plant leaves under different illumination, is monitored by the Nafion/MV modified gold microsensor. In order to survey the dioxygen concentration in vivo, a Nafion/MV modified carbon fiber microelectrode (CFME) is fabricated by a modification procedure similar to that of the Nafion/MV GDME. As a preliminary test, the dioxygen levels in the different areas of rat brain are determined by the Nafion/MV modified carbon fiber microsensors. The mechanism of the catalytic reaction is also addressed.     

Phage-display selection of a human single-chain fv antibody highly specific for melanoma and breast cancer cells using a chemoenzymatically synthesized G(M3)-carbohydrate antigen

Overexpression of the cell-surface glycosphingolipid G(M3) is associated with a number of different cancers, including those of the skin, colon, breast, and lung. Antibodies against the G(M3) epitope have potential application as therapeutic agents in the treatment of these cancers. We describe the chemoenzymatic synthesis of two G(M3)-derived reagents and their use in the panning of a phage-displayed human single-chain Fv (scFv) antibody library derived from the blood of cancer patients. Three scFv-phage clones, GM3A6, GM3A8, and GM3A15, were selected for recombinant expression and were characterized using BIAcore and flow cytometry. BIAcore measurements using the purified, soluble scFvs yielded dissociation constants (K(d)) ranging from 4.2 x 10(-7) to 2.1 x 10(-5) M. Flow cytometry was used to evaluate the ability of each scFv to discriminate between normal human cells (human dermal fibroblast, HDFa), melanoma cells (HMV-1, M21, and C-8161), and breast cancer cells (BCM-1, BCM-2, and BMS). GM3A6 displayed cross-reactivity with normal cells, as well as tumor cells, and GM3A15 possessed little or no binding activity toward any of the cell lines tested. However, GM3A8 bound to five of the six tumor cell lines and showed no measurable reactivity against the HDFa cells. Hence, we have demonstrated that a synthetic G(M3) panning reagent can be used to isolate a fully human scFv that is highly specific for native G(M3) on the surface of tumor cells. The result is a significant step toward effective immunotherapies for the treatment of cancer.

X射线荧光分析中熔融制样条件的研究

本文研究了熔融制样时熔融温度、熔融时间和脱模剂的加入量对分析结果的影响。研究结果表明,随着熔融温度的升高和熔融时间的加长,分析结果的总值将随之增大。相反,脱模剂量的增加会使分析结果降低。通过对熔融样品时产生的升华物的研究,发现在熔触过程中,四硼酸锂比样品以更大的比例逸出熔融体,从而造成了样品在分析圆片中的相对浓缩。而且在高温熔融时,钾和钠比样品中的其他元素例如硅、铝、铁、钛、钙、镁等更易于逸失。制样条件的不同引起样品和熔剂逸失的比例会有变化,它直接影响测定的结果,这证明了在X射线荧光光谱分析中保持制样条件一致的重要性。
