一种新型的分子内激基缔合物——双-β-萘基烷烃及其衍生物分子内激基缔合物的研究

本文报道几种双-β-萘甲酸多次甲基二醇酯及双-β-萘基烷烃次甲基链上被极性基团取代的衍生物的合成及其荧光谱。结果表明,它们都能形成分子内激基缔合物,对于双-β-萘甲酸多次甲基二醇酯来说,其分子内激基缔合物的荧光强度与链长有关,以三次甲基链为最大。对于双-β-萘基烷烃取代衍生物来说,由于吸电子基团的引入使两个萘环的电子云密度不等,它们所形成的分子内激基缔合物的荧光峰都比未取代的1,3-双-β-萘基丙烷有所蓝移。在极性溶剂乙腈中其分子内激基缔合物的荧光峰的位置虽然不变,但I_E/I₂值则有所降低,表现出既不完全与激基缔合物相同,又不完全与激基复合物相同的性质。     

A dual role of phenylboronic acid as a receptor for carbohydrates as well as a quencher for neighboring pyrene fluorophore

A simple amino acid based compound (1) containing a phenyl boronic group and pyrene fluorophore showed an enhanced fluorescence in aqueous solutions at physiological pH through suppression of the photoinduced electron transfer from pyrene to boronic acid on carbohydrate binding. The compound exhibited an interesting fluorescence change depending on pH with decreased emission intensity at acidic pH but enhanced emission intensity at basic pH unlike the fluorescent carbohydrate chemosensors using a PET process with amine and aryl-boronic acid. We have characterized a dual role of phenylboronic acid as a receptor for carbohydrates as well as a quencher for the fluorescence of pyrene fluorophore.     

Enantioselective recognition of mandelic acid by a 3,6-dithiophen-2-yl-9H-carbazole-based chiral fluorescent bisboronic acid sensor

We have prepared chiral fluorescent bisboronic acid sensors with 3,6-dithiophen-2-yl-9H-carbazole as the fluorophore. The thiophene moiety was used to extend the π-conjugation framework of the fluorophore in order to red-shift the fluorescence emission and, at the same time, to enhance the novel process where the fluorophore serves as the electron donor of the photoinduced electron transfer process (d-PET) of the boronic acid sensors; i.e., the background fluorescence of the sensor 1 at acidic pH is weaker compared to that at neutral or basic pH, in stark contrast to the typical a-PET boronic acid sensors (where the fluorophore serves as the electron acceptor of the photoinduced electron transfer process). The benefit of the d-PET boronic acid sensors is that the recognition of the hydroxylic acids can be achieved at acidic pH. We found that the thiophene moiety is an efficient π-conjugation linker and electron donor; as a result, the d-PET contrast ratio of the sensors upon variation of the pH is improved 10-fold when compared to the previously reported d-PET sensors without the thiophene moiety. Enantioselective recognition of tartaric acid was achieved at acid pH, and the enantioselectivity (total response K(D)I(F)(D)/K(L)I(F)(L)) is 3.3. The fluorescence enhancement (I(F)(Sample)/I(F)(Blank)) of sensor 1 upon binding with tartaric acid is 3.5-fold at pH 3.0. With the fluorescent bisboronic acid sensor 1, enantioselective recognition of mandelic acid was achieved for the first time. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time that the mandelic acid has been enantioselectively recognized using a chiral fluorescent boronic acid sensor. Chiral monoboronic acid sensor 2 and bisboronic acid sensor 3 without the thiophene moiety failed to enantioselectively recognize mandelic acid. Our findings with the thiophene-incorporated boronic acid sensors will be important for the design of d-PET fluorescent sensors for the enantioselective recognition of α-hydroxylic acids such as mandelic acid, given that it is currently a challenge to recognize these analytes with boronic acid fluorescent molecular sensors.     

Chiral donor photoinduced-electron-transfer (d-PET) boronic acid chemosensors for the selective recognition of tartaric acids, disaccharides, and ginsenosides

A modular approach was proposed for the preparation of chiral fluorescent molecular sensors, in which the fluorophore, scaffold, and chirogenic center can be connected by ethynyl groups, and these modules can easily be changed to other structures to optimize the molecular sensing performance of the sensors. This modular strategy to assembly chiral sensors alleviated the previous restrictions of chiral boronic acid sensors, for which the chirogenic center, fluorophore, and scaffold were integrated, thus it was difficult to optimize the molecular structures by chemical modifications. We demonstrated the potential of our new strategy by the preparation of a sensor with a larger scaffold. The photoinduced electron‐transfer (PET) effect is efficient even with a large distance between the N atom and the fluorophore core. Furthermore, the rarely reported donor‐PET (d‐PET) effect, which was previously limited to carbazole, was extended to phenothiazine fluorophore. The contrast ratio, that is, PET efficiency of the new d‐PET sensor, is increased to 8.0, compared to 2.0 with the previous carbazole d‐PET sensors. Furthermore, the ethynylated phenothiazine shows longer excitation wavelength (centered at 380 nm) and emission wavelength (492 nm), a large Stokes shift (142 nm), and high fluorescence quantum yield in aqueous solution (Φ=0.48 in MeOH/water, 3:1 v/v). Enantioselective recognition of tartaric acid was achieved with the new d‐PET boronic acid sensors. The enantioselectivity is up to 10 (ratio of the binding constants toward D ‐ and L ‐tartaric acid, k_D/k_L). A consecutive fluorescence enhancement/decrease was observed, thus we propose a transition of the binding stoichiometry from 1:1 to 1:2 as the analyte concentration increases, which is supported by mass spectra analysis. The boronic acid sensors were used for selective and sensitive recognition of disaccharides and glycosylated steroids (ginsenosides).     

Poly(glyceryl glycerol): A multi‐functional hydrophilic polymer for labeling with boronic acids

The synthesis of poly(glyceryl glycerol) (PGG), a polymer featuring a polyethylene oxide backbone and 1,2‐diol groups in every repeating unit, is presented. PGG was prepared by monomer‐activated ring‐opening polymerization of (dl ?1,2‐isopropylidene glyceryl) glycidyl ether, introducing a functional azido‐ or bromo‐head group to each chain. The 1,2‐diol groups, which were released by acidic deprotection, readily reacted with boronic acid derivatives, enabling the attachment of functional moieties under mild aqueous conditions. PGG was conjugated to poly(l ‐lactide) (PLLA) via azide‐alkyne cycloaddition and the resulting copolymer assembled into nanoparticles of 70 nm diameter in aqueous solution. Labeling of the PGG–PLLA particles was achieved by simple mixing with a boronic acid‐functional fluorophore. The labeling efficiency was determined by fluorescence spectroscopy to be 85.5% for boronic acid‐functional rhodamine B compared with 0.2% for plain rhodamine B. The strong interaction of PGG with boronic acids is ascribed to its polyol structure. This study demonstrates the usefulness and versatility of PGG as a hydrophilic polymer for possible biomedical applications. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Polym. Sci., Part A: Polym.

Structures of carbohydrate-boronic acid complexes determined by NMR and molecular modelling in aqueous alkaline media

The structures of thermodynamically stable aromatic boronic acid : cyclic carbohydrate chelates in aqueous alkaline media have been studied using 1H NMR spectroscopy and molecular modelling. It is found that interacting saccharides must necessarily possess a synperiplanar diol functionality for complexation to occur. While this is possible for furanose structures which tend to have a puckered planar geometry, for pyranose forms it is postulated that bis-complexation occurs with twist conformers of the pyranose ring, providing the ring has the requisite 1,2 : 3,4 polyol stereochemistry; specifically axial,equatorial : equatorial,axial or equatorial,axial : axial,equatorial orientations. In this respect it is possible to be predictive with regard to individual carbohydrate boronic acid interactions and to give reasonably comprehensive structural assignments to complexed components. In this paper twenty four polyhydroxy compounds have been screened using 1H NMR to monitor complexation along with computational techniques on a model system to substantiate proposed structures. It has been found that all of these materials interact with aromatic mono boronic acids as expected and structures for the resulting chelates are proposed.     

Hydrogen Peroxide-Responsive Triggers Based on Borinic Acids: Molecular Insights into the Control of Oxidative Rearrangement

Arylborinic acids represent new, efficient, and underexplored hydrogen peroxide-responsive triggers. In contrast to boronic acids, two concomitant oxidative rearrangements are involved in the complete oxidation of these species, which might represent a major limitation for an efficient effector (drug or fluorophore) release. Herein, a comprehensive study of H₂O₂-mediated unsymmetrical arylborinic acid oxidation to investigate the factors that could selectively guide their oxidative rearrangement is described. The o-CF₃ substituent was found to be an excellent directing group allowing a complete regioselectivity on borinic acid models. This result was successfully applied to synthesizing new borinic acid-based fluorogenic probes, which exclusively release the fluorescent moiety upon H₂O₂ treatment. These compounds maintained their superior kinetic properties compared to boronic acids, thus further enhancing the potential of arylborinic acids as valuable new H₂O₂-sensitive triggers.     

Photonic crystal carbohydrate sensors: low ionic strength sugar sensing

We developed a carbohydrate sensing material, which consists of a crystalline colloidal array (CCA) incorporated into a polyacrylamide hydrogel (PCCA) with pendent boronic acid groups. The embedded CCA diffracts visible light, and the PCCA diffraction wavelength reports on the hydrogel volume. This boronic acid PCCA responds to species containing vicinal cis diols such as carbohydrates. This PCCA photonic crystal sensing material responds to glucose in low ionic strength aqueous solutions by swelling and red shifting its diffraction as the glucose concentration increases. The hydrogel swelling results from a Donnan potential due to formation of boronate anion; the boronic acid pK(a) decreases upon glucose binding. This sensing material responds to glucose and other sugars at <50 microM concentrations in low ionic strength solutions.     

Immobilization of Glycosylated Enzymes on Carbon Electrodes,and its Application in Biosensors

A novel approach was used to immobilize glycosylated enzymes on a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) based on the interaction of boronic acid and carbohydrate moiety within the glycoproteins. 4-Aminomethylphenylboronic acid (4-AMBA) was covalently grafted on a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) by amine cation radical formation in the electrooxidation process of the amino-containing compound. The boronic acid group immobilized in this way could recognize glycoproteins such as glucose oxidase, horseradish peroxidase, dehydrogenase and others. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy measurement proved the presence of a 4-AMBA monolayer on the GCE. The adsorptions of three kinds of enzymes were investigated by cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The activity of the immobilized horseradish peroxidase was also studied.
