Synthesis of glycyrrhizic acid conjugates containing L-lysine

Activated esters and N-hydroxybenzotriazole-N,N′-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCC) or N-hydroxysuccinimide-DCC were used to synthesize conjugates of glycyrrhizic acid (GA) with N^ɛ-carbobenzyloxy-L-lysine [Lys(Z)-OH] and its esters containing two or three amino components. It was shown that the conjugate of GA 30-methyl ester with Lys(Z)-OH possessed anti-HIV-1 activity. __________ Translated from Khimiya Prirodnykh Soedinenii, No. 5, pp. 437–441, September–October, 2006.     

Stereoblock copolymers and tacticity control in controlled/living radical polymerization

Three controlled/living radical polymerization processes, atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP), reversible addition-fragmentation transfer (RAFT) polymerization, and nitroxide-mediated polymerization (NMP), were investigated for the polymerization of N,N-dimethylacrylamide in the presence of Lewis acids known to enhance isotacticity, such as yttrium trifluoromethanesulfonate (Y(OTf)(3)) and ytterbium trifluoromethanesulfonate (Yb(OTf)(3)). Poly(N,N-dimethylacrylamide) with controlled molecular weight, low polydispersity (M(w)/M(n) < 1.2), and a high proportion of meso dyads ( approximately 85%) was prepared by ATRP (with initiating system methyl 2-chloropropionate/CuCl/Me(6)TREN) and RAFT (with cumyl dithiobenzoate transfer agent) in the presence of Y(OTf)(3). The combination of NMP (using N-tert-butyl-1-diethylphosphono-2,2-dimethylpropyl nitroxide, SG1) and a Lewis acid complexation technique led to less precise control over chain architecture and microstructure ( approximately 65% meso dyads), as compared to RAFT/Y(OTf)(3) or ATRP/Y(OTf)(3). The latter two systems were used for the first one-pot synthesis of stereoblock copolymers by radical polymerization. Well-defined stereoblock copolymers, atactic-b-isotactic poly(N,N-dimethylacrylamides), were obtained by adding Y(OTf)(3) at a given time to either RAFT or ATRP polymerizations, initially started without the presence of the Lewis acid.     

Lanthanide borohydride complexes supported by diaminobis(phenoxide) ligands for the polymerization of epsilon-caprolactone and L- and rac-lactide

Reaction of Na2O2NN' [H2O2NN' = (2-C5H4N)CH2N[2-HO-3,5-C6H2(t)Bu2]2] with M(BH4)3(THF)3 afforded the dimeric, rare-earth borohydride compounds [M(O2NN')(mu-BH4)(THF)n]2 [M = Y(III), n = 0.5 (1-Y); M = NdIII, n = 1 (1-Nd); M = SmIII, n = 0 (1-Sm)]. For comparison the chloride analogues [M(O2NN')(mu-Cl)(THF)n]2 (2-M; M = La(III) or Sm(III), n = 0; M = Nd(III), n = 1) and the corresponding pyridine adducts [M(O2NN')(mu-X)(py)]2 [X = BH4 (3-M) or Cl (4-M); M = La(III), Nd(III), or Sm(III)] were prepared and structurally characterized for 4-La. Compounds 1-M initiated the ring-opening polymerization of epsilon-caprolactone. The best molecular weight control (suppression of chain transfer) for all three monomers was found for the samarium system 1-Sm. The most effective heterotactic enrichment (Pr) in the polymerization of rac-lactide was found for 1-Y (P(r) = 87%). Compound 1-Nd catalyzed the block copolymerization of epsilon-caprolactone and L- and rac-lactide provided that epsilon-caprolactone was added first. Attempted block polymerization by the addition of L-lactide first, or random copolymerization of a ca. 1:1 mixture of epsilon-caprolactone and L-lactide, gave only a poly(L-lactide) homopolymer.

Hydrophilic strips for preventing air bubble formation in a microfluidic chamber

In a microfluidic chamber, unwanted formation of air bubbles is a critical problem. Here, we present a hydrophilic strip array that prevents air bubble formation in a microfluidic chamber. The array is located on the top surface of the chamber, which has a large variation in width, and consists of a repeated arrangement of super‐ and moderately hydrophilic strips. This repeated arrangement allows a flat meniscus (i.e. liquid front) to form when various solutions consisting of a single stream or two parallel streams with different hydrophilicities move through the chamber. The flat meniscus produced by the array completely prevents the formation of bubbles. Without the array in the chamber, the meniscus shape is highly convex, and bubbles frequently form in the chamber. This hydrophilic strip array will facilitate the use of a microfluidic chamber with a large variation in width for various microfluidic applications.

Polymerization of hexamethylcyclotrisiloxane with a biscatecholsiliconate. I. Nature of polymerization

Polymerization behavior of hexamethylcyclotrisiloxane (D₃) in toluene solution with the use of benzyltrimethylammonium bis(o-p;henylenedioxy)phenylsiliconate as a catalyst, dimethyl sulfoxide as promoter, and adventitious moisture as initiator was investigated. The polymerization system gives a linear difunctional polymer, HO(Me₂SiO)_xH, with a molecular weight which is inversely proportional to the amount of water reacted rather than to the amount of catalyst employed. The polymerization in the presence of H₂O gives rise to molecular weight distributions very close to Poisson distributions. The normalized experimental GPC curve agrees very well with the theoretical GPC curve calculated from the polymerization scheme: \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$$ \begin{array}{*{20}c} {{\rm H}_2 {\rm O} + ({\rm Me}_2 {\rm SiO})_3 \to {\rm HO}({\rm Me}_2 {\rm SiO})_3 {\rm H}} \\ {{\rm HO(Me}_{\rm 2} {\rm SiO)}_{\rm 3} {\rm H} + {\rm N(Me}_{\rm 2} {\rm SiO)}_{\rm 3} \to {\rm HO}({\rm Me}_2 {\rm SiO})_{3(n + 1)} {\rm H}} \\ \end{array} $$\end{document} Polymerization carried out in the combined presence of H₂O and ROH, where R is Me or Me₃Si, gives rise to bimodal molecular weight distributions. The resulting polymers consist of HO(Me₂SiO)_2xH and RO(Me₂SiO)_xH. The molecular weight of the former is twice that of the latter, and their proportion depends on the ratio of H₂O to ROH. The system is a special type of “living” polymer.

Preparation and characterization of a novel star ABC triblock copolymer of styrene,ethylene oxide,and methacrylic acid

The preparation of a star triblock copolymer based on polystyrene, poly(ethylene oxide), and poly(methacrylic acid) blocks (S-St-EO-MAA) is described. The polymer structure was achieved by the following route: the polystyrene macroanion (PS_m) was formed first by a butyllithium-initiated polymerization of styrene and capping with Michler's ketone; the resulting N,N,N′,N′-tetramethyl-4,4′-diaminodiphenylmethanol (TDDM)-terminated polystyrene was further reacted with metal potassium. The oxo-anion initiated the ring-opening polymerization of ethylene oxide, and the desired ABC triblock copolymer was obtained by precipitation polymerization of methacrylic acid (MAA) initiated with a charge transfer complex (CTC) under UV irradiation using benzene as a solvent. The complex is composed of PS-b-PEO with a TDDM end group (PS-b-PEO_tm) and benzophenone (BP).     

Unmasking melon by a complementary approach employing electron diffraction, solid-state NMR spectroscopy, and theoretical calculations-structural characterization of a carbon nitride polymer

Poly(aminoimino)heptazine, otherwise known as Liebig's melon, whose composition and structure has been subject to multitudinous speculations, was synthesized from melamine at 630 degrees C under the pressure of ammonia. Electron diffraction, solid-state NMR spectroscopy, and theoretical calculations revealed that the nanocrystalline material exhibits domains well-ordered in two dimensions, thereby allowing the structure solution in projection by electron diffraction. Melon ([C(6)N(7)(NH(2))(NH)](n), plane group p2 gg, a=16.7, b=12.4 A, gamma=90 degrees, Z=4), is composed of layers made up from infinite 1D chains of NH-bridged melem (C(6)N(7)(NH(2))(3)) monomers. The strands adopt a zigzag-type geometry and are tightly linked by hydrogen bonds to give a 2D planar array. The inter-layer distance was determined to be 3.2 A from X-ray powder diffraction. The presence of heptazine building blocks, as well as NH and NH(2) groups was confirmed by (13)C and (15)N solid-state NMR spectroscopy using (15)N-labeled melon. The degree of condensation of the heptazine core was further substantiated by a (15)N direct excitation measurement. Magnetization exchange observed between all (15)N nuclei using a fp-RFDR experiment, together with the CP-MAS data and elemental analysis, suggests that the sample is mainly homogeneous in terms of its basic composition and molecular building blocks. Semiempirical, force field, and DFT/plane wave calculations under periodic boundary conditions corroborate the structure model obtained by electron diffraction. The overall planarity of the layers is confirmed and a good agreement is obtained between the experimental and calculated NMR chemical shift parameters. The polymeric character and thermal stability of melon might render this polymer a pre-stage of g-C(3)N(4) and portend its use as a promising inert material for a variety of applications in materials and surface science.     

Zinc complexes supported by claw-type aminophenolate ligands: synthesis, characterization and catalysis in the ring-opening polymerization of rac-lactide

A series of zinc silylamido complexes bearing claw-type multidentate aminophenolate ligands, [LZnN(SiMe(3))(2)] (L = -OAr(1)-CH(2)N[(CH(2))(n)NR(2)]CH(2)Ar(2), n = 2 or 3; R = Me or Et (1a-3a, 5a, 7a and 8a); L = -OC(6)H(2)-4,6-(t)Bu(2)-2-CH(2)N[(CH(2))(2)OMe](2) (9a)), have been synthesized via the reaction of Zn[N(SiMe(3))(2)](2) and 1 equiv. of corresponding aminophenol. The reaction of Zn[N(SiMe(3))(2)](2) with the proligand L(6)H (2-{N-(2-methoxybenzyl)-N-[3-(N',N'-dimethylamino)propyl]aminomethyl}-4-methyl-6-tritylphenol) resulted in the formation of bisphenolate zinc complex 6 regardless of the stoichiometric ratio of the two starting materials. Complex 4b with an initiating group of 3-tert-butyl-2-methoxy-5- methylbenzyloxy was obtained and further studied via the X-ray diffraction method to be monomeric. Zinc ethyl complex 2c was also prepared from the reaction of ZnEt(2) and 1 equiv. of proligand L(2)H as the representative complex with an alkyl initiating group. All zinc silylamido complexes efficiently initiated the ring-opening polymerization of rac-lactide in the presence or absence of isopropanol at ambient temperature. The steric and electronic characteristics of the ancillary ligands significantly influenced the polymerization performance of the corresponding zinc complexes. The introduction of bulky ortho- substituents on the phenoxy moiety resulted in an apparent decrease of catalytic activity while a slightly enhanced isotactic selectivity. Meanwhile, the elongation of the pendant amine arm to three-carbon-atom linkage led to significant decline of the catalytic activity in the absence of isopropanol. The zinc ethyl complex 2c was not such an efficient initiator as the silylamido ones, but the alkoxy complex 4b gave an obviously faster and better controlled polymerization when compared to the zinc silylamido complexes.     

Synthesis and characterization of a new silicone-based polyurethane surfactant

ω-N,N-Dihydroxyethyl aminopropylpolymethylhydrosiloxane (DAPS) a monotelechelic polydimethylsiloxane with a diol-end group, which is used to prepare polyurethane surfactant, was successfully synthesized. The preparation included four steps, which are hydroxyl protection, alkylation, hydrosilylation, and deprotection. Then, a novel silicone-based polyurethane surfactant was prepared by the addition polymerization of isophorone diisocyanate to DAPS, polypropylene glycol, and methanol and was used in the preparation of polystyrene by emulsion polymerization. The DAPS was characterized by FTIR, ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR and elemental analysis. The results showed that each step was successfully carried out and the targeted products were synthesized in all cases.     

Electrochemical polymerization of acetylene on a surface of platinum

Polyacetylene (PA) deposited on a platinum surface is synthesized by electrochemical polymerization of acetylene in a cell with platinum strip as cathode, nickel strip as anode, and nickel bromide in acetonitrile as electrolyte. The electrolytic solution is presaturated with acetylene. The PA so produced has a granular morphology and high surface area (79 m²/g), and is insoluble. Polymerization at lower temperature gives higher content in cis units. It has the same chemical structure as that produced using the Shirakawa method as examined by elemental analysis, infrared spectroscopy, x-ray diffraction, and differential scanning calorimetry.     

Reaction of vinyl chloride with late transition metal olefin polymerization catalysts

The reactions of vinyl chloride (VC) with representative late metal, single-site olefin dimerization and polymerization catalysts have been investigated. VC coordinates more weakly than ethylene or propylene to the simple catalyst (Me(2)bipy)PdMe(+) (Me(2)bipy = 4,4'-Me(2)-2,2'-bipyridine). Insertion rates of (Me(2)bipy)Pd(Me)(olefin)(+) species vary in the order VC > ethylene > propylene. The VC complexes (Me(2)bipy)Pd(Me)(VC)(+) and (alpha-diimine)Pd(Me)(VC)(+) (alpha-diimine = (2,6-(i)Pr(2)[bond]C(6)H(3))N[double bond]CMeCMe[double bond]N(2,6-(i)Pr(2)[bond]C(6)H(3))) undergo net 1,2 VC insertion and beta-Cl elimination to yield Pd[bond]Cl species and propylene. Analogous chemistry occurs for (pyridine-bisimine)MCl(2)/MAO catalysts (M = Fe, Co; pyridine-bisimine = 2,6-[(2,6-(i)Pr(2)[bond]C(6)H(3))N[double bond]CMe](2)-pyridine) and for neutral (sal)Ni(Ph)PPh(3) and (P[bond]O)Ni(Ph)PPh(3) catalysts (sal = 2-[C(H)[double bond]N(2,6-(i)Pr(2)-C(6)H(3))]-6-Ph-phenoxide; P[bond]O = [Ph(2)PC(SO(3)Na)[double bond]C(p-tol)O]), although the initial metal alkyl VC adducts were not detected in these cases. These results show that the L(n)MCH(2)CHClR species formed by VC insertion into the active species of late metal olefin polymerization catalysts undergo rapid beta-Cl elimination which precludes VC polymerization. Termination of chain growth by beta-Cl elimination is the most significant obstacle to metal-catalyzed insertion polymerization of VC.     

Atomic force microscopy study of the polymer growth in a polymer stabilized liquid crystal

The growth of a cholesteric polymer network in a polymer stabilized cholesteric texture (PSCT) was studied by atomic force microscopy (AFM). The liquid crystal is removed by dipping the samples into a solvent bath and the polymer network remaining on each strip is analyzed. Several aspects of the polymer growth were studied: irradiation time, use of an orientation layer and application of an electric field during polymerization. AFM has proved to be an accurate means to study polymer networks thanks to its high resolution. The pitch of the cholesteric polymer is observable under special conditions of polymerization.

One-pot synthesis of block copolymers in supercritical carbon dioxide: a simple versatile route to nanostructured microparticles

We present a one-pot synthesis for well-defined nanostructured polymeric microparticles formed from block copolymers that could easily be adapted to commercial scale. We have utilized reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization to prepare block copolymers in a dispersion polymerization in supercritical carbon dioxide, an efficient process which uses no additional solvents and hence is environmentally acceptable. We demonstrate that a wide range of monomer types, including methacrylates, acrylamides, and styrenics, can be utilized leading to block copolymer materials that are amphiphilic (e.g., poly(methyl methacrylate)-b-poly(N,N-dimethylacrylamide)) and/or mechanically diverse (e.g., poly(methyl methacrylate)-b-poly(N,N-dimethylaminoethylmethacrylate)). Interrogation of the internal structure of the microparticles reveals an array of nanoscale morphologies, including multilayered, curved cylindrical, and spherical domains. Surprisingly, control can also be exerted by changing the chemical nature of the constituent blocks and it is clear that selective CO(2) sorption must strongly influence the block copolymer phase behavior, resulting in kinetically trapped morphologies that are different from those conventionally observed for block copolymer thin films formed in absence of CO(2).     

Pentadecadentate chelating ligands as building blocks for a [Fe6] cage with 12 exo-coordinated sodium cations

Complexation of the highly branched, pentadecadentate chelating ligand cis,cis-1,3,5-cyclohexanetriamine-N,N,N',N',N",N"-hexaacetic acid (H(6)L) with iron(III) and sodium cations in the presence of carbonate anions leads to the formation of an [Fe6L2] cluster comprising an [Fe6] cage linked by 12 exo-coordinated sodium cations to form an extended 3D array.
