Development and validation of an ultra‐high‐performance liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry method to determine the bioavailability of warfarin and its major metabolite 7‐hydroxy warfarin in rats dosed with oral formulations containing different polymorphic forms

A simple, sensitive and rapid ultra‐high‐performance liquid chromatography–electrospray ionization–tandem mass spectrometry method was developed and validated for the quantification of warfarin and 7‐hydroxy warfarin in Sprague Dawley (SD) rats. Animals were administered a single dose of warfarin sodium formulations (crystalline and amorphous) at 12 mg/kg via oral gavage and blood was drawn over a 96‐h time course. Sample process recoveries, matrix effect and analyte stability were determined. The linearity for warfarin and 7‐hydroxy warfarin was from 5 to 2000 ng/mL in blank SD rat plasma. Correlation coefficients (r²) for standard calibration curves were >.98 and analytes quantified within ±15% of target at all calibrator concentrations. The average percent accuracy and precision for intra‐ and inter‐day were 93.7%–113.8% and ≤12.1%, respectively, for warfarin and 7‐hydroxy warfarin, across the quality control standards (5, 10, 500, 1800 and 2000 ng/mL). Acceptable analytical recovery (>55%) was achieved with process efficiencies >41.5% and matrix effects <139.9% over the analytical range. Both analytes were stable in stock solution, autosampler, benchtop and three cycles of freeze–thaw with percent accuracy ≥90.2% and precision (percent relative standard deviation) ≤14%. The validated method was successfully applied to a pre‐clinical bioavailability study of crystalline and amorphous warfarin sodium formulations in SD rats.     

Solvent‐free ring‐opening polymerization of lactones with hydrogen‐bonding bisurea catalyst

Development of effective organocatalysts for the living ring‐opening polymerization (ROP) of lactones is highly desired for the preparation of biocompatible and biodegradable polyesters with controlled microstructures and physical properties. Herein, a new class of hydrogen‐bond donating bisurea catalysts is reported for the ROP of lactones under solvent‐free conditions. ROP of lactones mediated by the bisurea/7‐methyl‐1,5,7‐triazabicyclo[4.4.0]dec‐5‐ene (MTBD) catalyst exhibits a living/controlled manner, affording the polymers and copolymers with the well‐defined structure, predictable molecular weight, narrow molecular weight distribution, and high selectivity for monomer at low catalyst loadings at ambient temperature. The possible mechanism of bisurea/MTBD‐catalyzed ROP of lactones is proposed, in which the bisurea activates the carbonyl group of lactones while MTBD facilitates the nucleophilic attack of the initiating/propagating alcohol by hydrogen bonding. Moreover, the poly(ε‐caprolactone‐co‐δ‐valerolactone) [P(CL‐co‐VL)] random copolymers with various compositions were synthesized using the bisurea/MTBD catalyst. The measurements of thermal properties and crystalline structure demonstrate that the CL and VL units are cocrystallized in the crystalline phase of P(CL‐co‐VL) copolymers. © 2018 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Synthesis and liquid crystalline behavior of bulky poly(methacrylamide)s

N‐(Bis(4‐(2‐ethylhexyloxy)phenyl)(phenyl)‐methyl)methacrylamide was synthesized and polymerized via reversible addition‐fragmentation chain‐transfer (RAFT) polymerization. The chain‐transfer agent (4‐cyano‐4‐(phenylcarbonothioylthio) pentanoic acid (CPADB)), combined with a chiral additive, and a radical initiator yielded polymers with dispersities between 1.2 and 1.4. At low concentrations, the polymers are soluble in hexanes and chloroform while at higher concentrations they swell in these solvents. Characterization of the polymers by wide‐angle X‐ray scattering (WAXS) revealed an interplanar distance of 19.0 Å. The WAXS data combined with polarized optical microscopy support a lamellar crystallization and lyotropic liquid crystalline behavior in hexanes and chloroform. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J.

Cold,warm, and hot programming of shape memory polymers

In this article, programming is classified as hot, warm, and cold, based on the temperature zone within which the programming is conducted. The strain and stress locking and releasing mechanisms are discussed within the thermodynamics framework. A new formula is developed for quantifying the strain recovery ratio of cold-programmed SMPs. Stress fixity ratio and stress recovery ratio are also defined based on the understanding of stress locking and recovery mechanisms. State-of-the-art literature on warm and cold programming is reviewed. Well-controlled programming as well as free strain recovery test and constrained stress recovery test are conducted, in order to validate the memory mechanisms discussed in this study. It is found that, while programming temperature has an insignificant effect on the final free shape recovery, it has a significant effect on the stress recovery. The recovery stress programmed by cold programming may be lower, equal to, or higher than that by hot programming, due to the different stress locking mechanisms and other factors such as damage during the thermomechanical cycle.

Piperazine Functionalization of C70 for Incorporation into Supramolecular Assemblies

The photochemical reaction of piperazine with C₇₀ produces a mono‐adduct (N(CH₂CH₂)₂NC₇₀) in high yield (67 %) along with three bis‐adducts. These piperazine adducts can combine with various Lewis acids to form crystalline supramolecular aggregates suitable for X‐ray diffraction. The structure of the mono‐adduct was determined from examination of the adduct I₂N(CH₂CH₂)₂NI₂C₇₀ that was formed by reaction of N(CH₂CH₂)₂NC₇₀ with I₂. Crystals of polymeric {Rh₂(O₂CCF₃)₄N(CH₂CH₂)₂NC₇₀}_n?nC₆H₆ that formed from reaction of the mono‐adduct with Rh₂(O₂CCF₃)₄ contain a sinusoidal strand of alternating molecules of N(CH₂CH₂)₂NC₇₀ and Rh₂(O₂CCF₃)₄ connected through Rh?N bonds. Silver nitrate reacts with N(CH₂CH₂)₂NC₇₀ to form black crystals of {(Ag(NO₃))₄(N(CH₂CH₂)₂NC₇₀)₄}_n?7nCH₂Cl₂ that contain parallel, nearly linear chains of alternating (N(CH₂CH₂)₂NC₇₀ molecules and silver ions. Four of these {Ag(NO₃)N(CH₂CH₂)₂NC₇₀}_n chains adopt a structure that resembles a columnar micelle with the ionic silver nitrate portion in the center and the nearly non‐polar C₇₀ cages encircling that core. Of the three bis‐adducts, one was definitively identified through crystallization in the presence of I₂ as ¹²{N(CH₂CH₂)₂N}₂C₇₀ with addends on opposite poles of the C₇₀ cage and a structure with C_2v symmetry. In ¹²{I₂N(CH₂CH₂)₂N}₂C₇₀, individual ¹²{I₂N(CH₂CH₂)₂N}₂C₇₀ units are further connected by secondary I2???N2 interactions to form chains that occur in layers within the crystal. Halogen bond formation between a Lewis base such as a tertiary amine and I₂ is suggested as a method to produce ordered crystals with complex supramolecular structures from substances that are otherwise difficult to crystallize.

Stable Ti3+ Defects in Oriented Mesoporous Titania Frameworks for Efficient Photocatalysis

By introducing a compatible reducing agent (2‐ethylimidazole) into a mono‐micelle assembly process, we present a type of ordered mesoporous TiO₂ microspheres that combines radially aligned mesostructure with Ti³⁺ defects in mesoporous frameworks. Such reductant acts as a building block of mesostructured frameworks and reduces Ti⁴⁺ in situ to generate defects during calcination, giving rise to the coexistence of bulk Ti³⁺ defects and an ordered mesostructure. The mesoporous TiO₂ has both excellent mesoporosity (a high surface area of 106 m² g^?1, a mean pore size of 18.4 nm) and stable defects with an extended photoresponse. Such integration of unique mesoscopic architecture and atomic vacancies provide both effective mass transportation and enhanced light utilization, leading to a remarkable increase in H₂ generation rate. A maximum H₂ evolution rate of 19.8 mmol g^?1 h^?1 can be achieved, along with outstanding stability under solar light.     

Iodine-transfer polymerization and CuAAC “click” chemistry: A versatile approach toward poly(vinylidene fluoride)-based amphiphilic triblock terpolymers

This study presents the synthesis and properties of linear PVDF-based amphiphilic triblock terpolymers with PS and PEO, [PVDF-b-PS-b-PEO], by adopting a procedure that involves: (a) iodine-transfer polymerization (ITP) of VDF with 1-iodoperfluorohexane (C₆F₁₃I) serving as chain-transfer agent (CTA) to afford C₆F₁₃-PVDF-I, (b) ITP of styrene with the C₆F₁₃-PVDF-I macromolecular-CTA to obtain C₆F₁₃-PVDF-b-PS-I diblock copolymer, (c) end-group exchange from iodo- to azido-group by nucleophilic substitution reaction with NaN_3, and (d) copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) with alkyne-terminated PEO to achieve C₆F₁₃-PVDF-b-PS-b-PEO triblock terpolymers. The ¹H and ¹⁹F NMR spectroscopy confirmed the presence of all blocks, while gel permeation chromatography traces showed the living nature of ITP technique. The self-assembly of these terpolymers was investigated in films (atomic force microscopy and DSC), as well as in aqueous and organic solvents (DLS). The analysis of crystalline phases based on the FTIR spectroscopy indicated the conversion of PVDF α-phase into α + β-phases and β + γ-phases upon the incorporation of PS and PEO blocks, respectively. The synthesized amphiphilic copolymers were evaluated (fluorescence spectroscopy) as carriers of small hydrophobic molecules in water. © 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Polym.

Multidynamic Crystalline Molecular Rotors Comprising an N-Heterocyclic Carbene Binuclear Au(I) Complex Bearing Multiple Rotators

We report multidynamic molecular rotations in crystals using a concave-shape N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) binuclear Au(I) complex rotor bearing pyrazine and tetrahydrofuran (THF) molecules as multicomponent rotators. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction (XRD) measurements revealed that two THF molecules are located near the central pyrazine encapsulated by two bulky NHC ligands. From ²H solid-state NMR analysis, it was observed that the pyrazine rotated in a 2-fold site exchange with a 180° rotational angle and a 31 kJ mol⁻¹ energy barrier, while the THF molecules showed a 23°-38° libration with a lower energy barrier (14 kJ mol⁻¹). Interestingly, the pyrazine rotation was accelerated when the THF molecules rotated in fast site exchange with a large angle of libration, suggesting that the rotators exhibit multidynamics in a correlated manner.
