Molecularly imprinted matrix solid-phase dispersion combined with dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction for the determination of four Sudan dyes in egg yolk

A new kind of aniline-naphthol molecularly imprinted microsphere (MIM) synthesized by aqueous suspension polymerization was applied as a selective sorbent of miniaturized matrix solid-phase dispersion combining with dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction (MSPD-DLLME) for the simultaneous determination of four Sudans in egg yolk samples. The solid sample was directly blended with MIM in MSPD procedure and the eluent of MSPD was used as the dispersive solvent of the followed DLLME for further purification and enrichment of the analytes before HPLC analysis. Good linearity for all the Sudan dyes was ranged from 0.02 μg g(-1) to 2.0 μg g(-1) (r(2)≥0.9990) and their recoveries at three spiked levels were ranged from 87.2% to 103.5% with RSD less than 6.1% (n=3). The presented MIM-MSPD-DLLME method combined the advantages of MIM, MSPD and DLLME, and could be applied for the determination of Sudans in complicated food samples.

Building Blocks for the Construction of Bioorthogonally Reactive Peptides via Solid-Phase Peptide Synthesis

The need for post-synthetic modifications and reactive prosthetic groups has long been a limiting factor in the synthesis and study of peptidic and peptidomimetic imaging agents. In this regard, the application of biologically and chemically orthogonal reactions to the design and development of novel radiotracers has the potential to have far-reaching implications in both the laboratory and the clinic. Herein, we report the synthesis and development of a series of modular and versatile building blocks for inverse electron-demand Diels–Alder copper-free click chemistry: tetrazine-functionalized artificial amino acids. Following the development of a novel peptide coupling protocol for peptide synthesis in the presence of tetrazines, we successfully demonstrated its effectiveness and applicability. This versatile methodology has the potential to have a transformational impact, opening the door for the rapid, facile, and modular synthesis of bioorthogonally reactive peptide probes.     

Solid-Phase Synthetic Approach Toward the Synthesis of Oxygen-Containing Heterocycles

Solid-phase organic synthesis is a rapidly expanding area of synthetic chemistry which is being widely exploited in the search for new medicinally important compounds using combinatorial techniques. In recent decades, a large number of reports related to solid-phase synthesis of heterocycles have appeared because of the wide variety in their biological activity. In this review, we report the important role of solid-phase synthesis in the synthesis of oxygen-bearing heterocycles.     

Oxidative chlorination of 4-pentenols and other functionalized hydrocarbons

Substituted 4-pentenols undergo regio- and stereoselective chlorocyclization, when treated in solutions of dimethyl carbonate with chloride, a terminal oxidant, and a buffered proton source. Effective oxidants for liberating chlorine-like reactivity from chloride in the temperature range between 20 and 40 °C are tert-butyl hydroperoxide, activated by a titanium(IV) or a molybdenum(VI) ONO-chelate complex, and potassium monoperoxysulfate from the ternary salt 2KHSO₅·KHSO₄·K₂SO₄ (oxone^®). Substituents in the flexible part of the alkenol direct oxidative chlorocyclization 2,5-trans- and 2,4-cis-selectively. (E)-Configuration at the alkene translates anti-specifically into relative configuration of substituents at the β-chlorohydrin ether entity. A phenyl group bound to the terminal alkene carbon alters the inherent 5-exo-specificity for chlorocyclization of terminal 4-pentenols toward 6-endo-selectivity, as exemplified by synthesis of trans-3-chloro-2-phenyltetrahydropyran from (E)-5-phenyl-4-penten-1-ol in up to 74% yield. Competition kinetics show that 5-exo-chlorocyclization of 1-phenyl-4-penten-1-ol occurs at 40 °C 600 times faster than electrophilic aromatic chlorosubstitution of anisole. Prenyl-type alkenols undergo allylic chlorination with an ene-type selectivity, as exemplified in synthesis of a building block for the fragrance component rose oxide from citronellol.     

Liquid chromatography time‐of‐flight mass spectrometry evaluation of fungicides reactivity in free chlorine containing water samples

Liquid chromatography (LC) combined with tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS), based on the use of a hybrid quadrupole‐time‐of‐flight mass analyzer, was used to investigate the reactivity of nine fungicides in free chlorine‐containing water samples. Three of the selected compounds (fenhexamid, FEN; pyrimethanil, PYR; and cyprodinil, CYP) displayed a poor stability in presence of moderate chlorine levels; thus, the effects of different parameters on their half‐lives (t_1/2) were evaluated. Sample pH, bromide traces, and the water matrix affected their relative stabilities. Despite such variations, the three fungicides are degraded at significant rates not only in ultrapure, but also in surface water spiked with chlorine levels up to 2 µg ml^?1, and when mixed with chlorinated tap water, generating several transformation products (TPs). The time‐course of precursor species and their TPs was followed in the LC‐MS mode, using the information contained in accurate, full scan mass spectra (MS) to propose the empirical formulae of TPs. Thereafter, their ion product scan (MS/MS) spectra were considered to set their chemical structures; allowing, in some cases, to distinguish between isomeric TPs. The reaction pathway of FEN, the less stable fungicide, involved just an electrophilic substitution of hydrogen per chlorine, or bromine, and cleavage of the molecule to render an amide. PYR and CYP shared common reaction routes consisting of halogenation, hydroxylation, and condensation processes leading to complex mixtures of TPs, which were relatively stable to further transformations.

LC/MS study of the UV filter hexyl 2‐[4‐(diethylamino)‐2‐hydroxybenzoyl]‐benzoate (DHHB) aquatic chlorination with sodium hypochlorite

The fate of modern personal care products in the environment is becoming a matter of increasing concern because of the growing production and assortment of these compounds. More and more chemicals of this class are treated as emerging contaminants. Transformation of commercially available products in the environment may result in the formation of a wide array of their metabolites. Personal care products in swimming pools and in drinking water reservoirs may undergo oxidation or chlorination. There is much data on the formation of more toxic metabolites from original low toxicity commercial products. Therefore, reliable identification of all possible transformation products and a thorough study of their physicochemical and biological properties are of high priority. The present study deals with the identification of the products of the aquatic chlorination of the hexyl 2‐[4‐(diethylamino)‐2‐hydroxybenzoyl]‐benzoate ultraviolet filter. High‐performance liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (HPLC/MS) and HPLC/MS/MS with accurate mass measurements were used for this purpose. As a result, three chlorinated transformation products were identified. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Fluorous dimethylthiocarbamate (DMTC) protecting groups for alcohols

N,N-Bis(perfluoroalkyl)thiocarbamoyl chlorides (^FDMTC-Cls) were synthesized as reagent for the protection of alcohols. Using the crystalline ^FDMTC-Cls, the ^FDMTC groups were introduced into the alcohol molecules in excellent yields in the presence of sodium hydride in THF at room temperature. The products were separated from the excess alcohols by solid-phase extraction with a fluorous reverse-phase silica gel column (Fluorous Solid Phase Extraction; FSPE). The ^FDMTC groups were readily removed by oxidation with m-chloroperbenzoic acid (m-CPBA) and subsequent hydrolysis with KHCO₃.
