DSC and NMR Study on the Inclusion Complex of Lappaconitine with b-Cyclodextrin

Lappaconitine (Figure 1) is a diterpenoid alkaloid, naturally occurring in roots and rhizomes of Aconitum and delphinium1. Lap reveals bradycardic and hypotensive activity2. But its application is restrained owing to its poor water solubility, toxicity and side effects on humans. In a number of pharmaceutical studies, b-CD has been reported to interact with many drug molecules to form inclusion complexes for improving the water solubility of drugs, and reducing their toxicity3. We have p…

Influence of Solid-liquid Interaction and Temperature on the Dynamic Dewetting of a Thin Polymer Film:A Molecular Dynamics Study

Coarse-grained molecular dynamics simulations were carried out to investigate the dewetting behavior of a polymer thin film on partial wetting solid surface at the early stage of the dewetting process. Spontaneous dewetting is initiated by removing a band of strip from both the ends of the liquid polymer film which has achieved equilibrium. The solid-liquid interaction and temperature were varied to show their influence on the dewetting dynamics during dewetting as well as the shape evolution of the liquid ...     

Ni-B/TiO_2 Amorphous Catalyst Used in Heavy Arenes of Petrochemicals Hydrogenation

The various distillation of petroleum contains arenes. For environmental protection, the hydrogenation of arenes becomes important. The amorphous alloy is a new class of material with special catalytic properties for reduction arenes1-4. In this paper, we prepared the Ni-B/TiO2 and Ni-B/Al2O3 amorphous catalysts by impregnation and reduction by KBH4 solution. Their catalytic activities for hydrogenation arenes were tested by the hydrogenation of 1,3,5-trimethylbenzene (TMB) in the co…     

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 …     

The Synthesis of N-Morphine Hapten and Production of Monoclonal Antibody

The drug overdose and addiction is a serious international problem. Therefore developing a rapid, accurate, convenient and cheap method for detecting morphine in urea is useful and necessary, especially for investigation of epidemiology, identification of medical jurisprudence and determination of drug addict etc. There are many compounds that are similar to morphine in chemical structure and tend to have cross-reaction with the anti-morphine antibody. In order to reduce the cross reaction a…     

One-Pot Synthesis of N-Boc-2, 5-bis(trimethylsilyl)pyrrolidine

Since Daly reported the structure of epibatidine and its potent analgesic activity in 19921, study on the synthesis of epibatidine and its derivatives and relationships between the structure and activity of epibatidine has received much attention2. During the course of our research for the synthesis of epibatidine derivatives, N-boc-2, 5-bis(trimethylsilyl)pyrrolidine 4 was used as the key intermediate to construct the skeleton of epibatidine via the 1, 3-dipolar cycloaddition (Scheme 1). Ac…     

Studies on the Interactions between Potassium oxalato-oxodiperoxovanadate and Histidine by NMR and MS

K3[VO(O2)2(C2O4)]2H2O, (abbr. BpV (ox)) pertains to peroxovanadium (abbr. pV) complexes, which have been attracted considerable attention nowadays, since they are inhibitors of tyrosine phosphatase and may be developed into a new kind of drugs for the treatment of diabetes1. According to the evidence on water-biperoxovanadium, the molecular mechanism of insulin-like effects of pV involves in irreversibly oxidizing the catalytic cysteine at the active site of the target enzyme2,3. However…
