Self-assembled biotinylated disulfide derivative monolayer on gold electrode for immobilizing enzymes

Based on self-assembled biotinylated disulfide derivative monolayer on gold electrode, the sensors immobilized monolayer or multilayer membranes composed of avidin and biotinlabeled glucose oxidase (B.GOD) or of avidin-B.GOD complex (ABC) and B.COD were prepared. The present technique may be useful for controlling the enzyme content of the sensors in molecular level by repeating the deposition of enzyme layers. The sensors have the characteristics of shorter response time, higher sensitivity. The linear range is from 6.0 x 10(-6) - 5.0 x 10(-3) M. The sensor can be used for more than 1 month and can be reactivated. The sensor was used to determine glucose in human blood serum, and the results are satisfactory.     

离子液体存在下脂肪醛的环化三聚反应

Aliphatic aldehydes such as ethanal,propanal,n-butanal,isobutyraldehyde,n-valeraldehyde,isovaleraldehyde,n-hexanal and n-octanal were converted into the corresponding 2,4,6-trialkyl-1,3,5-trioxanes through cyclotrimer-ization in the presence of the ferric chloride based ionic liquids at room temperature without solvent in high selec-tivity.The effects of different ionic liquids,acidity of ionic liquids and temperature on cyclotrimerization were alsostudied.The results showed that the ferric chloride based ionic liquids(apparent molar fraction of FeCl_3(x(FeCl_3)=0.62))were a kind of efficient catalysts for the cyclotrimerization of aliphatic aldehyde which could be separatedconveniently from the reaction mixture and recycled without loss of catalytic activity.The conversion of isobu-tyraldehyde and the selectivity to 2,4,6-triisopropyl-1,3,5-trioxane were 91.1% and 99.8% respectively under opti-mum reaction condition(isobutyraldehyde 25.0 g,[Et_3NH]Cl/FeCl_3(x(FeCl_3)=0.62)1.0 g,25 ℃for 1 h).     

Stereoselective synthesis of cyclohexa-2,4-dien-1-ones and cyclohex-2-en-1-ones from phenols

A convenient synthetic method for the synthesis of substituted cyclohex-2-en-1-ones by the direct alkylation of phenols has been developed. Furthermore, enantiomerically enriched 2,6-dimethyl-6-(3-methylbut-2-enyl)-cyclohexa-2,4-dienone was prepared by the deprotonation of 2,6-dimethylphenol with a sparteine–lithium complex followed by alkylation with 1-chloro-3-methylbut-2-ene. 2,6-Dimethyl-6-(3-methyl-but-2-enyl)-cyclohex-2-enone was prepared from the corresponding cyclohexa-2,4-dien-1-one by selective hydrogenation of the 4,5-double bond. The method was extended to 2-methyl-naphthalen-1-ol and 1-methyl-naphthalen-2-ol resulting in 2-(R)-methyl-2-(3-methylbut-2-enyl)-2H-naphthalen-1-one and 1-(S)-methyl-1-(3-methylbut-2-enyl)-1H-naphthalen-2-one, respectively.     

2-Oxo-3,4-dihydropyrimido[4,5-d] pyrimidines as new reversible inhibitors of EGFR C797S (Cys797 to Ser797) mutant

Extensive structure-activity relationships (SARs) study of JND3229 was conducted to yield a series of new reversible 2-oxo-3,4-dihydropyrimido[4,5-d]pyrimidine privileged scaffold as EGFR^C797S inhibitors. One of the most potent compound 6i potently suppressed EGFR^{L858R/T790M/C797S} kinase with an IC₅₀ value of 3.1 nmol/L, and inhibited the proliferation of BaF3 cells harboring EGFR^{L858R/T790M/C797S} and EGFR^{19D/T790M/C797S} mutants with IC₅₀ values of 290 nmol/L and 316 nmol/L, respectively. Further, 6i dose-dependently induced suppression of the phosphorylation of EGFR^{L858R/T790M/C797S} and EGFR^{19D/T790M/C797S} in BaF3 cells. Compound 6i may serve as a promising lead compound for further drug discovery overcoming the acquired resistance of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients.     

Immobilization of single-stranded deoxyribonucleic acid on gold electrode with self-assembled aminoethanethiol monolayer for DNA electrochemical sensor applications

A synthesized 24-mer single-stranded deoxyribonucleic acid (ssDNA) was covalently immobilized onto a self-assembled aminoethanethiol monolayer modified gold electrode, using water-soluble 1-ethyl-3(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-carbodiimide (EDC). The covalently immobilized ssDNAs were hybridized with complementary ssDNA (cDNA) or yAL(3) gene in solution, forming double-stranded DNAs (dsDNA). Meanwhile, daunomycin as an electrochemical active intercalator in the hybridization buffer solution was intercalated into the dsDNA to form a dsDNA/daunomycin system on the gold electrode surface, which was used for DNA electrochemical sensor. The cathodic waves of daunomycin bound to the double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) by linear sweep voltammetry were utilized to detect the cDNA. The cathodic peak current (i(pc)) of duanomycin was linearly related to the concentrations of cDNA between 0.1 mug ml(-1) and 0.1 ng ml(-1). The detection limit was about 30 pg ml(-1).     

Simultaneous determination of light rare earths in monazite sand by densitometry on thin-layer chromatograms

The determination of individual light rare-earth metals in monazite sand is described, based on TLC with a mixture of di-isopropyl ether, diethyl ether, di(2-ethylhexyl)phosphate and nitric acid (8:8:0.4:0.07 v v ) as eluent. Linear densitometric calibration graphs are obtained for individual light rare-earths in the range 0.015-0.60 mug. The minimum detectable quantities of La. Ce, Pr, Nd and Sm are 9, 10, 20, 13 and 12 ng, respectively. The relative standard deviations for the determination of La, Ce, Pr, Nd and Sm in monazite sand were 1.8, 1.1, 5.9, 1.9 and 6.5%, respectively. Results were in good agreement with those obtained by spectrophotometry.     

Simultaneous Determination of Aromatic Amines by Liquid Chromatography Coupled with Carbon Nanotubes/Poly (3-methylthiophene) Modified Dual-Electrode

Liquid chromatography with amperometric detection (LC-AD) is developed and applied to simultaneously determine five aromatic amines. In the LC-AD, a new carbon nanotubes/poly(3-methylthiophene) modified dual-electrode is fabricated and then used as the working electrode. It is found that this chemically modified electrode (CME) exhibits efficiently electrocatalytic oxidation for aromatic amines with relatively high sensitivity, stability and long-life. Thus, lower detection in LC-AD can be achieved, which are 4.0 × 10^–8 mol L^–1 for aniline, 1.6 ×10^–7 mol L^–1 for 4-nitroaniline, 1.0 × 10^–7 mol L^–1 for 4-chloroaniline, 1.5 × 10^–7 mol L^–1 for 1-naphthylamine, 1.7 × 10^–7 mol L^–1 for 2-bromoaniline. The recoveries of the five analytes are also determined, which range between 0.95 and 1.05 for drinking water, 0.86 and 1.10 for the LiWa River water.     

Palladium-benzimidazolium salt catalyst systems for Suzuki coupling: development of a practical and highly active palladium catalyst system for coupling of aromatic halides with arylboronic acids

Palladium-benzimidazolium salt catalyst systems have been studied for the Suzuki coupling. A different substitutent effect has been uncovered with respect to nitrogen substituents in the benzimidazolium salts from the palladium-imidazolium salt analogs. A practical and highly active palladium catalyst system, PdCl₂/N,N′-dibenzylbenzimidazolium chloride 2, has been identified for the Suzuki coupling of aromatic halides with arylboronic acids. The coupling of a wide array of aromatic halides with arylboronic acids with the PdCl₂-2 catalyst system gave good to excellent yields. The effective palladium loading could be as low as 0.0001 mol% and 0.01-0.1 mol% for iodide and bromide substrates, respectively. The coupling of unactivated aromatic chlorides with arylboronic acids also gave good results using Cs₂CO₃ as base with a 2 mol% palladium loading. The electronic factors from aromatic halides exert a significant influence on the Suzuki coupling catalyzed by the PdCl₂-2 system while the electronic effect from the arylboronic counterparts is negligible. The aromatic halides with modest steric hindrance could also couple smoothly with phenylboronic acids using the PdCl₂-2 catalyst system.
