Concise Synthesis of(±)-epi-Chrysotricine

Chrysotricine 1 was isolated from the Chinese herb medicine Hedyotis Chrysotricha and was shown to possess antitumor activity1. Its structure has been elucidated as a novel zwitterionic (-carboline alkaloid containing a 2,2,5-trisubstituted tetrahydrofuranyl group. The (-carboline compounds have attracted considerable attraction in recent years because of their promising and intriguing biological activities2. Recently, we have established the absolute configuration of chrysotricine by the fir…     

New diterpenoid glucosides from Siegesbeckia pubescens

Plants of the genus Siegesbeckia are annual herbs widely distributed in tropical and temperate zones and they are used as a traditional medicine to treat rheumatic arthritis, hypertension, malaria, neurasthenia and snake-bite in China. In previous papers, we reported on five new ent-kaurane and ent-pimarane diterpenoids, siegesbeckioside, siegesbeckiol and siegesbeckic acid1, orientalin A and B, and eight know compounds2,3. The present paper describes the isolation and structural elucidation …     

Intercalation of Epinephrine with Calf-thymus ds-DNA

Interactions of DNA with various molecules are interesting because of its importance in gene expression process of living cells. Several models for the interaction between DNA and some small molecules have been proposed1-4. We are interested in the possibility of the interaction between DNA/RNA and neurotransmitters, such as dopamine and epinephrine, because these species are very important substances for keeping normal physiological functions of brain and neuro system. However, no report…

New Soluble Fluorinated Polyimides

Aromatic polyimides have been widely used in aerospace, electrical and electronic applications due to their outstanding thermal stability, mechanical strength at elevated temperature and electrical properties1-3. However, polyimide materials are usually difficulty to fabricate owing to their insolubility in most organic solvents and infusibility. Besides solubility, low moisture uptake of polyimide is also a major concern for microelectronics and optical applications. The present article descr…

苯酚在热氧化法制备的SnO2/Ti 电极上的电氧化研究

A SnO₂/Ti electrode prepared by thermal oxidation was used as the anode for galvanostatic electrolysis in acidic solution containing phenol, the time-dependances of phenol concentration,chemical oxygen demand in solution(COD)and instantaneous current efficiency were determined during electrolysis.The results show that with the SnO₂/Ti anode instead of Pt,the COD significantly decreases at the same charge passage, and average current efficiency of oxidation increases by three times The mechanism for phenol oxidation at two electrodes was discussed.
