Chromatographic separation and mass spectrometric identification of positional isomers of polyethylene glycol-modified growth hormone-releasing factor (1-29)

A one-step chromatographic method capable of separating all isomers of polyethylene glycol (PEG)-growth hormone-releasing factor (GRF) (1-29) conjugates was developed. The unmodified GRF (1-29) and seven different isomers of PEG-GRF (1-29) conjugates were separated by using a simple reversed-phase HPLC method depending on the differences of hydrophobicity due to the number and site of PEG attachment. The PEGylation sites of all isomers of PEG-GRF (1-29) conjugates were identified by determining the molecular masses of the Lys-C digested fragments with matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry. This study is a first report for the separation of all PEG-conjugate isomers and would be useful for further studies to find the promising conjugate by evaluating biological activity and stability of each isomer.     

Preparation d'alcools acetyleniques et propargyliques F-alkyles

A number of α-β acetylenic carbinols R_FCCC(OH)RR′, in which the acetylenic proton was substituted by a F-alkyl group, were first prepared, from a classical reaction of (F-alkynyl)- lithium derivatives R_FCCLi upon various carbonyl compounds.On another hand, the reaction of propargyl bromide metallic complexes (organoaluminic, or ultrasonic irradiation activated organozinc) upon some polyfluorinated ketones R_FCOR led to the formation, in convenient yields, of the propargylic carbinols HCCCH₂C(OH)RR_F.The synthesis and properties of these series of new (F-alkyl) substituted acetylenic and propargylic alcohols are described and discussed.     

Molecular recognition properties of salicylic acid-imprinted polymers

Summary Two molecularly imprinted polymers (MIP) have been prepared using the acidic drug salicylic acid, which can form intramolecular hydrogen bond, as the template and acrylamide or 4-vinylpyridine as the functional monomer. HPLC was used to evaluate the binding performance of the MIP for the template and for several analogues. The results showed that the MIP (P₂) prepared using acrylamide as the functional monomer had no molecular imprinting effect whereas that (P₁) prepared using 4-vinylpyridine as the functional monomer had a significant molecular imprinting effect. The reason the molecular imprinting effect was different for the two MIP was elucidated and the molecular recognition properties of P₁ were studied in detail. It was confirmed that electrostatic interaction played an important role in the molecular recognition of P₁. Scatchard analysis showed that two types of binding site with distinctly different affinity were formed in P₁. Their dissociation constants were estimated to be 7.6×10⁻⁵ mol L⁻¹ and 3.2×10⁻³ mol L⁻¹, respectively. Because P₁ has high affinity and selectivity for salicylic acid not only in organic systems but also in water-containing systems, it gives P₁ the potential for use in the enrichment, separation, and detection of salicylic acid in biological fluids.

The Effect of Vibrational Excitation of Molecules on Plasmachemical Reactions Involving Methane and Nitrogen

An experimental study of plasmachemical reaction involving CH₄ and N₂ molecules in rf discharge was studied in order to know the effect of vibrational excitation of N₂ molecules. When the relative nitrogen concentration was greater than 0.8, the main product of CH₄ decomposition was HCN, and the rate of methane decomposition at this condition was faster than that one in pure methane. These results could be confirmed through the mass spectroscopic method. The reason for these results is the vibrational energy of N₂ excited by rf discharge. The chain reaction mechanisms of producing HCN by vibrational excitation of N₂ were examined closely through numerical simulation. The rate-controlling step was the dissociation reaction of excited nitrogen molecule to the atomic nitrogen, so the process of HCN synthesis was limited by the value of reaction constant, k^N.
