New oxacalix[4]arene carboxylate detects viologen in protic media

ABSTRACT

We demonstrate that Ullman fragment-coupling can be used to synthesise an oxacalix[4]arene monocarboxylic acid, which provides easy access to its water-soluble carboxylato derivatives. Crystallographic and computational data suggest that the new carboxyl-substituted oxacalix[4]arene adopts a 1,3-alternate conformation both in the solid-state and in methanol solution. Its water-soluble tetrabutylammonium derivate can detect the herbicide paraquat at neutral pH in aqueous media (K _a = 111 ± 3 M^–1) and in methanol (K _a = 2020 ± 70 M^–1).

Development of an Enzyme Immunoassay for the Determination of the Herbicide Metsulfuron-Methyl Based on Chicken Egg Yolk Antibodies

Abstract

The development of an indirect competitive enzyme immunoassay for the sulfonylurea herbicide metsulfuron-methyl (MSM) is described. In contrast to traditional antibody generation in mammals, this extremely sensitive method is based on chicken egg yolk antibodies (IgY). They were raised in laying hens using an MSM-derivative-BSA hapten as immunogen. With a 1:10000 dilution of the antibody solution and a coating antigen (MSM-derivative-KLH) concentration of 10 μg L^?1 the IC₅₀ value achieved for the target analyte was 0.4 μg L^?1. The least detectable dose was established at 13 ng L^?1. Cross-reactivity was tested with 5 structurally related compounds, where only sulfometuron showed a significant binding. The ELISA was tested with spiked tap and surface water samples. This paper, for the first time, demonstrates the production of high-affinity IgY antibodies for a herbicide compound.     

Phenoxy herbicidal ammonium ionic liquids

Ammonium ionic liquids with the 4-chloro-2-methylphenoxyacetate anion were synthesized and characterized. Physicochemical properties, such as thermal stability, phase transition temperatures, viscosity, density, refractive index, as well as surface activity and herbicidal activity were determined. Improved physicochemical properties suggest a reduced environmental impact of newly formed group of herbicidal ionic liquids (HILs). HILs with a longer substituent can be characterized with better herbicidal activity in comparison with commercial products.     

Flow-injection spectrophotometric determination of chloramben

Abstract

A method for the dechlorination of PCB mixtures (Aroclor formulations) to biphenyl was extended to soils. The contaminated sample was mixed with magnesium flakes, potassium hexachloropalladiate (K₂PdCl₆), propan-2-ol and water then permitted to react for up to six hours. Biphenyl, recovered by extraction into hexane, was quantified by gas chromatography with flame ionization detection. The reaction was very efficient in propan-2-ol / water (～95%), surfactant emulsion or sand mixture and virtually complete in soil provided that excess magnesium (2 g) and the K₂PdCl₆ were added to the sample prior to the addition of water. Higher PCB loadings were readily determined in field contaminated soils either by direct determination within the matrix or by standard additions. However, analyte concentrations were appreciably over-estimated in Soxhlet or sonication extracts of a certified reference material that contained sub-ppm levels of analyte. The over-estimation is considered to result from the conversion in part of natural organic matter to biphenyl.

Design,Synthesis and Herbicidal Activity of Novel Sulfonylureas Containing Tetrahydrophthalimide Substructure

To develop novel sulfonylurea herbicides, a series of chlorsulfuron derivatives was designed and synthesized through introducing tetrahydrophthalimide substructure taken from protoporphyrinogen IX oxidase(PPO) inhibitors onto the critical 5-position of the classical benzene ring. The structures of title compounds were confirmed by infrared spectroscopy, ultraviolet spectroscopy, ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectrometry, mass spectrometry and elemental analysis. In addition, the crystal structure of compound II-5 was further determined by X-ray diffraction analysis. Bioassay results showed that individual compounds exhibited good herbicidal activities, especially compound II-8, which displayed 100% inhibition rate against Echinochloa crusgalli at 150 g/ha(1 ha=10⁴ m²) with the method of foliage spray in the pot experiment.
