Metalation of N-phenylpyrrole by using an in situ mixture of ZnCl(2)TMEDA (0.5 equiv; TMEDA=N,N,N',N'-tetramethylethylenediamine) and LiTMP (1.5 equiv; TMP=2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidino) was optimized. The reaction carried out at room temperature in THF resulted in incomplete metalation (56 % conversion) and selectivity (mixture of 2-iodo and 2,2'-diiodo derivatives in an 86:14 ratio after trapping with iodine). By using diethyl ether (DEE), toluene, or hexane instead of THF, low conversions of 17, 38, or 23 % were observed, respectively, but the formation of the diiodide was avoided. When hexane was used as solvent, strong lithium-complexing ligands such as [12]crown-4 and N,N'-dimethylpropylideneurea (DMPU) inhibited the reaction whereas more (hemi)labile ligands (TMEDA>THF approximately DME) favored it. This result shows that a temporary accessibility of lithium to interact with the rest of the base and/or the substrate is a prerequisite for an efficient metalation. A 75 % yield of 2-iodo-N-phenylpyrrole was obtained after reaction with the base in the presence of five equivalents of TMEDA for two hours at room temperature, and subsequent trapping with iodine. We were able to successfully replace the spare TMP with a less expensive butyl group. 相似文献
We have obtained a novel heterobimetallic iron-magnesium complex, (THF)4Mg(mu-Br)2FeBr2 (THF = tetrahydrofuran), which showed reverse photochromism in THF. The response exhibited in this system is associated with d-orbital splitting of the Fe atom and a change in the molecular aggregation state (dimerization). 相似文献
A novel polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) surface modification method for microchip electrophoresis has been developed to make a stable and sufficient electroosmotic flow (EOF). Poly(l-glutamic acid) (PGA) which had ionizable carboxyl groups at a high pH-range was immobilized on the surface of microchannel fabricated with PDMS. The surface modification involved surface oxidation by plasma, the silanization of 3-aminopropyldimethylethoxysilane (APDMES) and immobilization of PGA via amide bond. The modified channel was extremely stable against consecutive electric power supply over 5h, and its long-term stability was demonstrated by the efficient separation of four amino acid derivatives reproducibly after a week. Additionally, homocysteine (Hcy), important risk factor of cardiovascular disease, osteoporosis and problems in pregnancy, was successfully measured in human serum in modified PDMS channel with the other thio amino acid simultaneously. 相似文献
Density functional theory and fragment‐energy analysis have been used to probe the mechanism of the halogen–zinc exchange reaction. In their Full Paper on page 5686 ff. , M. Uchiyama, S. Nakamura et al. discuss three important factors in this reaction: The effect of the halogen species, the effect of the alkyl ligand on zinc, and the effect of the substrate nature.
Expanded porphyrins : The electronic excited states of two forms of meso‐hexakis(pentafluorophenyl)‐substituted gold(III) hexaphyrin(1.1.1.1.1.1), such as that depicted, have been investigated by density functional calculations and magnetic circular dichroism spectroscopy to assign their low‐energy excited singlet states.
Ghrelin (GRLN) is now known to be an appetite-stimulating and growth hormone (GH)-releasing peptide that is predominantly
synthesized and secreted from the stomachs of various vertebrate species from fish to mammals. Here, we report a GRLN-like
peptide (GRLN-LP) in a cartilaginous fish, the red stingray, Dasyatis akajei. 相似文献
A new method is described for the determination of orthophthalaldehyde in air which is used for the disinfection of various instruments (e.g. endoscopes) in hospital. Orthophthalaldehyde in air was collected with a silica gel cartridge impregnated with acidified 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine (DNPH-cartridge) and derivatives were analyzed by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). In this study, the derivatization was examined by comparing the process with three phthalaldehyde isomers (ortho-, iso- and tere-). In the case of iso- and tere-phthalaldehyde, derivatives synthesized with excess of aldehyde consisted mainly of mono-derivatives, and derivatives synthesized with excess of DNPH consisted mainly of bis-derivative. In the case of orthophthalaldehyde, derivative consisted of only bis-derivative and mono-derivative was never observed under any conditions. Orthophthalaldehyde was completely retained by the DNPH-cartridge during air sampling, however, the derivatization reaction was incomplete and unreacted orthophthalaldehyde was flushed from the cartridge during the subsequent solvent extraction process. Unreacted orthophthalaldehyde and DNPH reacted again in the extraction solvent solution. Immediately after the solvent extraction, both mono- and bis-DNPhydrazone derivatives of orthophthalaldehyde were present in the solution. However, over time, the mono-derivative decreased and bis-derivative increased until only the bis-derivative was left allowing accurate determination of the orthophthalaldehyde concentration. The transformation of mono-derivative to bis-derivative was faster in polar aprotic solvents such as acetonitrile, dimethyl sulfoxide and ethyl acetate. Transformation was found to occur most quickly in acetonitrile solvent and was completed in 4 h in this case. It was possible to measure orthophthalaldehyde in air as bis-derivative using a DNPH impregnated silica cartridge and HPLC analysis. 相似文献
