Carbon nanotube-modified electrodes for electrochemical DNA-sensors

Glassy-carbon electrodes (GCEs) are modified with preoxidized multiwalled carbon nanotubes (CNTs). According to the data of atomic force microscopy, the layers of CNTs on GCEs possess a homogeneous nanostructurized surface. The voltammetric properties of a GCE/CNT depend on the modifier load. Guanine and deoxyguanosine monophosphate are strongly adsorbed on GCE/CNT and oxidized at +690 and +930 mV (pH 7.0), respectively. The oxidation current of guanine DNA nucleotides adsorbed on a GCE/CNT is significantly higher for the thermally denaturated biopolymer than for the native one. Our results are of interest for the development of sensors based on the electrochemical properties of nucleic acids.     

Intramolecular Diels—Alder reaction of 4-(N-furfuryl)aminobut-1-enes. New approach to the synthesis of 6,8a-epoxyoctahydroisoquinoline (3-aza-11-oxatricyclo[6.2.1.01,6]undec-9-ene) derivatives

The intramolecular Diels—Alder reaction of readily accessible 4-substituted 4-(N-furfuryl)aminobut-1-enes was studied and a new one-step method was developed for the synthesis of 6,8a-epoxy-1,2,3,4,4a,5,6,8a-octahydroisoquinoline (3-aza-11-oxatricyclo[6.2.1.0^1,6]undec-9-ene) derivatives. The [4+2]-cycloaddition proceeds stereoselectively to form exo-adducts. The influence of substituents at the nitrogen atom in 4-(N-furfuryl)aminobut-1-enes on the cycloaddition pathway was examined.     

Synthesis of Sulfur-Containing Bis-Terpenoids Based on Monoterpene Oxides

Ethanedithiol and di(mercaptoethyl)sulfide react regio- and stereoselectively with (+)-3-carene and -hydroxy(-)--pinene -oxides in the presence of sodium ethoxide to give the corresponding bis- and tris-sulfides with two terpene fragments
