Functional and bioactive properties of Larimichthys polyactis protein hydrolysates as influenced by plasma functionalized water-ultrasound hybrid treatments and enzyme types

The effects of plasma functionalized water (PFW) and its combination with ultrasound (UPFW) on the functional and bioactive properties of small yellow croaker protein hydrolysates (SYPHs) produced from three enzymes were investigated. Fluorescence and UV–Vis spectroscopy indicated that SYPHs tended to unfold with increasing intensity and shift in wavelengths to more flexible conformations under PFW and UPFW treatments. Particle size distribution and microstructure analysis revealed that treatments could disrupt aggregation of protein molecules to increase the roughness, specific surface area, and decrease the particle size of peptides during hydrolysis. The partially denatured structure of SYPHs induced by treatments increased the susceptibility of the fish proteins to exogenous enzymes, thereby accelerating the hydrolytic process to yield peptides with improved solubility, decreased emulsifying and foaming properties, and improved enzyme-specific antioxidant properties. The results revealed that the functionality of SYPHs was influenced by the treatment method and the enzyme type employed.     

Hydrolysis study: Synthesis of novel styrenic Schiff bases derived from benzothiazole

Novel styrenic Schiff base derivatives of benzothiazole are synthesized. The condensation of 4-vinylbenzaldehyde 1 with either benzothiazol-2-amine or 4-methoxy-benzothiazol-2-amine leads to a mixture of two isomers. From 4-methyl-benzothiazol-2-amine and 6-fluoro-benzothiazol-2-amine, the N-(4-vinylbenzylidene)-4-methyl-benzothiazol-2-amine 8 and N-(4-vinylbenzylidene)-6-fluoro-benzothiazol-2-amine 9 are isolated, respectively. The structures of the synthesized Schiff bases are confirmed through a combination of various spectroscopic techniques including IR, UV, ¹H and ¹³C NMR. A kinetic study of the hydrolysis process of derivatives 6 and 9 in buffered aqueous medium at pH 4.4, 7.4 and 8.5 is conducted by UV spectroscopy. It is shown that the hydrolysis of these compounds is a first order reaction showing an increasing rate as the medium acidity is enhanced.     

Synthesis and evaluation of biodegradable copolyesters of octadecane-1,18-dicarboxylic acid and poly(ε-caprolactone) diol

Copolyesters of poly(ε-caprolactone) diol and 1,18-octadecane dicarboxylic acid were synthesized by polyaddition. The copolymers have a "mixed" structure of ’polyester-polyethylene’. Characterization was carried out by using ¹H and ¹³C NMR, FT-IR, viscosities, DSC, and GPC. The tensile strength varied from 11.9 to 19.9 MPa, and elongation at break varied from 370 to 660 %, respectively. Biodegradability was evaluated by enzymatic hydrolysis (lipases from Rhizopus arrhizus and Candida cylindracea and an esterase form hog liver) and by soil burial test. Both tests showed that the copolyesters were characterized by enhanced biodegradability.     

Base-Catalyzed Rate and Arrhenius Activation Energy for t-Butyl Isothiocyanate Hydrolysis in Dioxane-H2O and Ethanol-H2O Mixtures by Gas Chromatography

Abstract

N-bonded tertiary-butyl isothiocyanate hydrolyzes via a mechanism that differs from the normal, or S-bonded linkage isomer. The diminutive amount of published kinetic data for the former compound prompted a redetermination of the base-catalyzed rate of hydrolysis of the isothiocyanate in 2% dioxane, ethanol water mixtures at several temperatures using gas-liquid chromatography.     

Trapping Dimethyltin Cations by Bipyridine‐N,N′‐Dioxide Ligands

N,N′‐dioxide ligands such as 2, 2′‐bipyridine‐N,N‐dioxide (BPDO‐I) and 4, 4′‐bipyridine‐N,N‐dioxide (BPDO‐II) were used to trap the hydrated dimethyltin cations under controlled hydrolysis. The use of the chelating ligand BPDO‐I leads to the isolation of the discrete monocation [Me₂Sn(BPDO‐I)(OH₂)(NO₃)]⁺[NO₃]^– ( 2 ), whereas the linear ligand BPDO‐II directs the construction of cationic polymers, [{Me₂Sn(OH₂)₂(μ‐BPDO‐II)}²⁺{NO₃^–}₂ · 2H₂O]_n ( 3· 2H₂O) and [{Me₂Sn(μ‐OH)(BPDO‐II)}₂²⁺{NO₃^–}₂ · H₂O]_n ( 4· H₂O) under different reaction conditions.

Effect of bromide salts on cationic micellar catalysis

 The effect of bromide salts, MBr [M=Na, (CH₃)₄N, (C₂H₅)₄N, (C₄H₉)₄N, C₈H₁₇N(CH₃)₃], on the first-order rate constant, k ₁, of basic hydrolysis of 2,4-dinitrochlorobenzene in micelle solutions of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide has been studied. The main results are as follows. The molar ratio concentrations of OH⁻, m ^S _OH, on the micelle surface in the presence of different concentrations of Br⁻ ions, were calculated on the basis of the pseudophase ion-exchange model, and there is a linear relation between k ₁ and m ^S _OH. The relation between k ₁ and the concentrations of various bromides could be presented with a single curve, and the cations of the bromides have little effect on k ₁. Under the experimental conditions, there is a linear relation between 1/k ₁ and the concentrations of Br⁻; thereby a new method calculating the competition binding constant between OH⁻ and Br⁻ from dynamic data is proposed. The hydrodynamic radii of the micelles increase with the addition of bromide salts. Received: 1 August 2000 Accepted: 31 January 2001

Synthesis and Dehydrogenation of Organic Salts of a Five-Membered B/N Anionic Chain,a Novel Ionic Liquid

We have synthesized the tetrabutylammonium ([Bu₄N]⁺), tetraethylammonium ([Et₄N]⁺), guanidinium ([C(NH₂)₃]⁺), and methylguanidinium ([C(N₃H₅CH₃)]⁺) salts of the [BH₃(NH₂BH₂)₂H]⁻ anion, a five-membered B/N anionic chain, in high yields by the metathesis reactions of Na[BH₃(NH₂BH₂)₂H] with the corresponding halides and characterized them by NMR (¹¹B, ¹¹B{¹H}, ¹H, ¹H{¹¹B}, ¹³C), IR, elemental analysis, TGA-DSC, and TGA-MS. These complexes behave like ionic liquids (ILs), in which the melting point of the [Bu₄N][BH₃(NH₂BH₂)₂H] is the lowest (−51 °C). The dehydrogenation of these ILs have been studied through the thermal decomposition and catalytic hydrolysis in aqueous solution using the noble or non-noble metals or their salts as catalysts, and the results indicate that these ILs of five-membered B/N anionic chain are promising hydrogen storage materials.
