共振瑞利散射法对普萘洛尔特效适配体系的手性分析

本文提出了对于手性药物普萘洛尔手性识别和手性分析的新方法。 该方法引用基于氧化石墨烯的指数富集配体系统进化筛选技术(GO-SELEX),经过10轮优化筛选出对心血管药物普萘洛尔有高度亲和力的特效适配体。 然后通过共振瑞利散射光谱法(RRS)对反应体系进行特效性检测,实验表明S-普萘洛尔和R-普萘洛尔有迥然不同的光谱差异,S-普萘洛尔与特效适配体结合后的RRS显著增强,而R-普萘洛尔与适配体结合后的RRS几乎没有变化。 据此可以对心血管药物手性普萘洛尔进行有效的手性识别。 在考察反应体系和实验条件的基础上,可对S-普萘洛尔进行实验检测,同时对外消旋体中的R-普萘洛尔进行计算分析。 实验对S-普萘洛尔的线性范围为5~275 nmol/L,检测限为0.5 nmol/L。 方法应用于外消旋药片的分析检测,结果令人满意。 实验表明,RRS检测特效适配体结合的手性靶标体系会彰显不同的光谱差异,从而可对手性对映体进行手性识别,尤其是可利用其光谱差异实现同时测定的手性分析,方法可在特殊情形下不经分离而同时测定手性对映体,具有推广应用价值。     

A rapid and sensitive UHPLC–MS/MS method for the determination of celosin A in rat plasma with application to pharmacokinetic study

Celosin A (CA), a natural compound isolated from Celosia argentea L., has been shown significant hepatoprotective effect on AHNP‐induced liver injury. This study described a rapid and sensitive ultra‐high‐pressure liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC–MS/MS) assay for determination of CA in rat plasma. Methanol‐mediated precipitation was used for sample pretreatment. Chromatographic separation was achieved on a T3 column with gradient elution using water and acetonitrile as mobile phase. Determination was obtained using an electrospray ionization source in negative selected reaction monitoring mode at the transitions of m/z 793.3 → m/z 661.2 and m/z 955.6 → m/z 793.2 for CA and IS, respectively. The assay was linear over the concentration range 0.25–2500 ng/mL (r > 0.995) with a lowest limit of quantification (LLOQ) of 0.25 ng/mL. The intra‐ and inter‐day precisions (RSD) were 1.65–9.84 and 2.46–13.49%, respectively, while accuracy (RR) ranged from 96.21 to 99.45%, respectively. The recovery ranged from 95.09 to 102.22% and the matrix effect from 98.29 to 100.13%. The analyte was stable under the tested storage conditions. The method has been successfully applied to a preclinical pharmacokinetic study in rats after a single intravenous (2 mg/kg) or oral (50 mg/kg) administration. The oral bioavailability of CA was ~1.94%; in addition, there was no difference between male and female rats. This is the first time of the use of an UHPLC–MS/MS method for determination of CA concentration in rat plasma and for evaluation of its pharmacokinetic behavior.     

Dynamic Lone Pair Expression as Chemical Bonding Origin of Giant Phonon Anharmonicity in Thermoelectric InTe

Loosely bonded (“rattling”) atoms with s² lone pair electrons are usually associated with strong anharmonicity and unexpectedly low thermal conductivity, yet their detailed correlation remains largely unknown. Here we resolve this correlation in thermoelectric InTe by combining chemical bonding analysis, inelastic X-ray and neutron scattering, and first principles phonon calculations. We successfully probe soft low-lying transverse phonons dominated by large In¹⁺ z-axis motions, and their giant anharmonicity. We show that the highly anharmonic phonons arise from the dynamic lone pair expression with unstable occupied antibonding states induced by the covalency between delocalized In¹⁺ 5s² lone pair electrons and Te 5p states. This work pinpoints the microscopic origin of strong anharmonicity driven by rattling atoms with stereochemical lone pair activity, important for designing efficient materials for thermoelectric energy conversion.     

Promoting Photocatalytic H2 Evolution through Retarded Charge Trapping and Recombination by Continuously Distributed Defects in Methylammonium Lead Iodide Perovskite

Inspired by its great success in the photovoltaic field, methylammonium lead iodide perovskite (MAPbI₃) has recently been actively explored as photocatalysts in H₂ evolution reactions. However, the practical application of MAPbI₃ photocatalysts remains hampered by the intrinsically fast trapping and recombination of photogenerated charges. Herein, we propose a novel strategy of regulating the distribution of defective areas to promote charge-transfer dynamics of MAPbI₃ photocatalysts. By deliberately designing and synthesizing the MAPbI₃ photocatalysts featuring a unique continuation of defective areas, we demonstrate that such a feature enables retardation of charge trapping and recombination via lengthening the charge-transfer distance. As an outcome, such MAPbI₃ photocatalysts turn out to achieve an impressive photocatalytic H₂ evolution rate as high as 0.64 mmol ⋅ g⁻¹ ⋅ h⁻¹, one order of magnitude higher than that of the conventional MAPbI₃ photocatalysts. This work establishes a new paradigm for controlling charge-transfer dynamics in photocatalysis.     

激活型有机光声造影剂的应用

光声(PA)成像作为一种结合了光学和声学成像优势的新型成像方式,具有深层组织穿透和高空间分辨率等优点,在重大疾病的早期影像诊断方面有着巨大的应用前景。然而传统的PA造影剂依然存在信噪比低、选择性及特异性差等不足,容易产生假阳性诊断结果。激活型PA造影剂可以有效的降低背景噪声,并提升成像的灵敏度和特异性,是目前PA造影剂设计与构筑的主要趋势。本综述首先简单介绍了PA成像的原理,然后结合近几年在金属离子、酶、活性氮和活性氧等相关方面的生物成像应用,梳理了可激活探针在不同微环境中的响应方式。最后,对激活型探针在PA成像中的应用进行了总结和展望。     

DNA G-四链体的结构完整性对催化性质的影响

DNA酶中的G-四链体-血红素(G4-hemin)DNA酶结构具有较高的设计性和化学稳定性,因此格外受研究者关注.G-平面作为辅酶因子hemin的结合位点,不仅提供大π平面与hemin结合,而且其平面上的G碱基还可以充当近端配位基团与hemin进行配位.因此,研究G-平面完整性在G4-DNA酶体系中的作用具有重要意义.本文设计了一系列含有空位的G4(G-vacancy,GV)及G-三链体,通过“鸟嘌呤类似物插入”策略实现G-平面完整性以及DNA酶催化活性的恢复.结果表明,末端G-平面完整性是G4-DNA酶具有催化活性的必要条件,且其能够充当近端配位基团与末端碱基协同激活G4-DNA酶.考虑到hemin会选择性地结合于G4的3’-端平面,本文以含有3’-端空位的G4以及G-三链体为模型进行DNA酶的构建.结果表明,相较于末端完整的G4-hemin DNA酶,末端不完整的G4结构所形成的DNA酶催化活性很低.为了进一步验证该平面完整性的重要性,本文提出了“鸟嘌呤衍生物插入”策略,即将鸟嘌呤衍生物(无环鸟苷和鸟苷)插入G-空位以恢复G-平面的完整性.通过圆二色光谱和紫外熔解实验,发现末端平面完整性的缺失会使圆二色特征峰信号和G4结构热稳定性下降,而鸟嘌呤碱基类似物的加入则可以使特征峰信号以及热稳定性得到一定程度的恢复,表明鸟嘌呤碱基类似物的加入确实使G-平面完整性得到恢复.与此同时,随着鸟嘌呤碱基类似物浓度的增加,G4-hemin DNA酶活性逐渐增强,最终恢复至与完整G4一样的活性.在以G-三链体为模型的实验中,本文通过另一条富G序列与G-三链体进行结合,形成复合的(3+1)型G4结构,最终实现了DNA酶活性的恢复.同时,在3’-G-平面末端增加了激活碱基(dA或dTC),结果表明,即使G-平面不完整,末端碱基依旧能够激活DNA酶,但酶活性整体弱于完整G4时的活性.同样,“鸟嘌呤衍生物插入”策略可以使酶活性得到恢复.本文系列实验充分说明了末端碱基可与G-平面形成协同作用,与hemin的铁中心共同形成六配位关系,加速催化中间体生成,进而增强催化活性.有趣的是,通过设计Holliday junction结构研究发现,“鸟嘌呤衍生物插入”策略仅适用于平行G4结构.G-空位的存在不仅降低了G4结构的稳定性,而且降低了其与hemin间的亲和力,二者均是造成G4-DNA酶催化能力下降的主要因素.总之,本文证明了3’-端G-平面的完整性是G4-DNA酶实现其催化能力必不可少的因素,对理解末端G-平面在G4-DNA酶中的作用具有重要的参考意义.     

Mo的引入方式对CeO2脱硝性能的影响

固定源排放的氮氧化物(NOx)导致了严重的环境污染问题,NH3选择性催化还原(NH3-SCR)被认为是目前控制NOx排放的最有效技术,已广泛应用于电力行业的烟气排放治理.然而,我国非电行业的NOx减排仍然面临着重大挑战,因为其排放的废气温度通常低于300oC,且含有一定量的SO2,传统的钒基SCR催化剂因活性温度(300～400oC)较高而无法有效发挥作用.因此,亟待开发新型的高效低温SCR催化剂.铈基催化剂由于氧化铈(CeO2)的优异储氧能力(OSC)和良好的氧化还原能力而显示出较好的低温(80～300oC)脱硝性能,如Mn-Ce,W-Ce,Ta-Ce,Cu-Ce和Nb-Ce等.但这些铈基催化剂易被烟气中的SO2毒化而导致催化活性降低.因此,提高铈基SCR催化剂抗硫中毒能力是其产业化应用的关键.已有研究发现,通过构筑结构保护层或添加另一种金属来保护活性组分是提高SCR催化剂抗硫性能的一种可行策略.氧化钼(MoO3)通常被用做传统V2O5/TiO2催化剂的促进剂以提高其水热稳定性和表面酸性.研究表明,在V/Ti催化剂中引入钼物种不仅可以提高其SCR活性,而且提高了V/Ti催化剂的抗SO2性能,这是由于VMo/Ti表面较少的V–O–V键削弱了对SO2的氧化作用.Tang等开发了一种Fe2O3/MoO3纳米片催化剂,显示出比纯Fe2O3更好的抗SO2能力,主要是由于层状结构的MoO3能阻止NH4+在硫酸氢铵中的沉积.目前关于Mo的引入方式即催化剂的制备方法对铈基催化剂物化性能和NH3-SCR催化性能(特别是抗SO2能力)的影响的研究还比较少.本文分别采用浸渍法和沉淀法在CeO2中引入钼物种,制备了Mo-CeO2和MoCe-cp催化剂来探究制备方法对MoCe催化剂的脱硝性能及抗SO2中毒能力的影响.结果表明,引入Mo可以显著地提高CeO2的低温脱硝性能,其中Mo-CeO2催化剂在150 oC即可达到80％以上的脱硝效率,同时抗SO2中毒性能也得到了显著提高.对催化剂结构、氧化还原能力、表面酸度和反应物分子的吸附脱附性质进行了表征,并与MoCe催化剂脱硝性能和抗硫性能相关联.结果表明,Mo-CeO2和MoCe-cp催化剂的物理化学性质和脱硝性能有明显区别.首先,Mo-CeO2中的钼物种主要存在于CeO2表面,而MoCe-cp中的钼物种主要存在于CeO2体相,其为Mo-CeO2表面带来大量的Br?nsted酸位并抑制了硝酸盐的吸附,促使NH3-SCR反应按照Eley-Rideal机理进行,进而表现出优于MoCe-cp的低温活性.其次,Mo-CeO2表面更多的Mo物种抑制了SO2的吸附,从而使Mo-CeO2表现出更好的抗SO2性能.本文为具有实际应用前景的铈基NH3-SCR催化剂的设计提供了参考.
