Construction of a dimethyl sulfoxide sensor based on dimethyl sulfoxide reductase immobilized on a au film electrode.

A novel dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) sensor using DMSO reductase and film electrodes was constructed. The Au and Ag electrodes were fabricated on slide glass by vacuum deposition and the application of a photolithographic technique. The micro-chamber (4 x 50 x 1 mm, volume 200 microl) was fabricated on a poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) polymer. The Pt electrode was implanted in a PDMS polymer. DMSO reductase was immobilized on a Au film electrode with bovine serum albumin (BSA)-glutaraldehyde. This sensor could determine DMSO in an unpurged aqueous solution with glucose oxidase (GOD) and catalase (CAT) for oxygen removal. The DMSO sensor showed a linear response within 1 mM DMSO with a correlation coefficient of 0.999. The detection limit was 200 microM (3sigma), and the sensitivity was 23.8 mA M(-1) cm(-2). The relative standard deviations at each concentration were within 3.6%.     

Regiocontrolled intramolecular cyclizations of carboxylic acids to carbon-carbon triple bonds promoted by acid or base catalyst

We systematically investigated, for the first time, the relationship between regioselectivity and acid/base effects in the cyclization reactions between carboxylic acids and carbon-carbon triple bonds. We found novel acid- and base-promoted cyclizations to selectively give isocoumarin or pyran-2(2H)-one and phthalide or furan-2(5H)-one skeletons, respectively, and established a catalytic version of regioselective heterocyclic ring synthesis. Density functional theory calculations and application to a short route to thunberginol A were also described. [reaction: see text].     

Nonadiabatic electron wavepacket dynamics of molecules in an intense optical field: an ab initio electronic state study

A theory of quantum electron wavepacket dynamics that nonadiabatically couples with classical nuclear motions in intense optical fields is studied. The formalism is intended to track the laser-driven electron wavepackets in terms of the linear combination of configuration-state functions generated with ab initio molecular orbitals. Beginning with the total quantum Hamiltonian for electrons and nuclei in the vector potential of classical electromagnetic field, we reduce the Hamiltonian into a mixed quantum-classical representation by replacing the quantum nuclear momentum operators with the classical counterparts. This framework gives equations of motion for electron wavepackets in an intense laser field through the time dependent variational principle. On the other hand, a generalization of the Newtonian equations provides a matrix form of forces acting on the nuclei for nonadiabatic dynamics. A mean-field approximation to the force matrix reduces this higher order formalism to the semiclassical Ehrenfest theory in intense optical fields. To bring these theories into a practical quantum chemical package for general molecules, we have implemented the relevant ab initio algorithms in it. Some numerical results in the level of the semiclassical Ehrenfest-type theory with explicit use of the nuclear kinematic (derivative) coupling and the velocity form for the optical interaction are presented.
