Summary: Novel azobenzene‐functionalized hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (AZO‐HPMC) polymers and their α‐cyclodextrin (α‐CD) complexes have been prepared. These polymers show interesting sol‐gel transition behavior in aqueous solutions. In the absence of α‐CD, the gelation temperature increases after UV irradiation, while in the presence of α‐CD, the gelation temperature decreases after UV irradiation. The difference in the gelation temperatures between the trans and cis samples of AZO‐HPMC opens a wide operating window for reversible regulation of the sol‐gel transition behavior by photoirradiation.

Methylated β‐cyclodextrin (Me‐β‐CD) was used to complex a free‐radical photoinitiator, 2‐hydroxy‐2‐methyl‐1‐phenylpropan‐1‐one ( 1 ), yielding the water‐soluble 1 : 1 host/guest complex 1 a . The structure of complex 1 a was verified by means of IR, UV/vis and 1H NMR spectroscopy. The influence of Me‐β‐CD as the host on the photopolymerization kinetics of N‐isopropylacrylamide was studied. Compared to the photopolymerization carried out under nearly identical conditions but without cyclodextrin, an increase in the polymerization rate was registered in the presence of complex 1 a . 相似文献
Graphene/mono‐(6‐amino‐6‐deoxy)‐β‐cyclodextrin multilayer films composed of graphene sheet (GS) and mono‐(6‐amino‐6‐deoxy)‐β‐cyclodextrin (NH2‐β‐CD) were fabricated easily by two steps. First, negatively charged graphene oxide (GO) and positively charged mono‐(6‐amino‐6‐deoxy)‐β‐cyclodextrin (NH2‐β‐CD) were layer‐by‐layer (LBL) self‐assembled on glassy carbon electrode (GCE) modified with a layer of poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride) (PDDA). Then graphene/mono‐(6‐amino‐6‐deoxy)‐β‐cyclodextrin (GS/NH2‐β‐CD) multilayer films were built up by electrochemical reduction of graphene oxide/mono‐(6‐amino‐6‐deoxy)‐β‐cyclodextrin (GO/NH2‐β‐CD). Combining the high surface area of GS and the active recognition sites on β‐cyclodextrin (β‐CD), the GS/NH2‐β‐CD multilayer films show excellent electrochemical sensing performance for the detection of DA with an extraordinary broad linear range from 2.53 to 980.05 µmol·L?1. This study offers a simple route to the controllable formation of graphene‐based electrochemical sensor for the detection of DA. 相似文献
A novel Cu–Zn β‐cyclodextrin (CuZn/β‐CD) model compound was synthesized under ultrasound irradiation to mimic the functionality of copper zinc superoxide dismutase (CuZnSOD). For comparison, Cu/β‐CD and Zn/β‐CD complexes were also synthesized via a sonochemical approach. The obtained complexes were characterized by FTIR, ICP‐OES, UV–vis and Scanning electron microscopy‐Energy dispersive X‐ray (SEM‐EDX) techniques. The SOD activity of the complexes was evaluated by a pyrogallol autoxidation method. These enzyme‐mimetic materials scavenge ambient free radicals, with the potential to provide significant antioxidant protection (scavenging ability > 70%). 相似文献
Ibuprofen (Ibu) and β‐cyclodextrin (βCD) and its derivative (hydroxypropyl‐β‐cyclodextrin, HPβCD) complexes spatial geometry information were studyed. Firstly, phase solubility experiment was carried out for S‐(+)‐ibuprofen (SIbu) and cyclodextrins complex. The apparent stability constant (Kc) for 1:1 complexes are 1065 M‐1 (βCD) and 1476 M‐1 (HPβCD) respectively. Secondly, 1H NMR and two‐dimensional rotating‐frame overhauser effect spectroscopy (2D ROESY) were used for binding study, and confirmed that benzene ring of Ibu is deeply included into the cavity and racemic Ibu (RSIbu) can be discriminated by βCD or HPβCD. Finally, docking model was given by theoretical investigation. The model with ‐4.77 kcal/mol binding energy matches experimental structure. 相似文献
The effect of β‐cyclodextrin (β‐CD) on the excited‐state reactivity of the two benzoylthiophene derivatives, tiaprofenic acid (TPA; 2 ) and suprofen (SPF; 3 ) in their carboxylate forms is studied. The presence of β‐cyclodextrin does not affect the nature of the photoproduced transients and the photoproducts, but increases the photodegradation quantum yields of both drugs. The efficiency of the photodecarboxylation process is enhanced. This effect is rationalized in the light of the inclusion of 2 and 3 in the β‐CD cavity, affecting the energy of the lowest excited states of the drugs. The structure of the complexes is determined by induced circular dichroism, and molecular‐mechanics and dynamic Monte Carlo calculations. The photoreactivity of the decarboxylated photoproduct 7 of tiaprofenic acid ( 2 ) in presence of β‐CD is also examined. 相似文献
Five β‐peptide thioesters ( 1 – 5 , containing 3, 4, 10 residues) were prepared by manual solid‐phase synthesis and purified by reverse‐phase preparative HPLC. A β‐undecapeptide ( 6 ) and an α‐undecapeptide ( 7 ) with N‐terminal β3‐HCys and Cys residues were prepared by manual and machine synthesis, respectively. Coupling of the thioesters with the cysteine derivatives in the presence of PhSH (Scheme and Fig. 1) in aqueous solution occurred smoothly and quantitatively. Pentadeca‐ and heneicosapeptides ( 8 – 10 ) were isolated, after preparative RP‐HPLC purification, in yields of up to 60%. Thus, the so‐called native chemical ligation works well with β‐peptides, producing larger β3‐ and α/β3‐mixed peptides. Compounds 1 – 10 were characterized by high‐resolution mass spectrometry (HR‐MS) and by CD spectroscopy, including temperature and concentration dependence. β‐Peptide 9 with 21 residues shows an intense negative Cotton effect near 210 nm but no zero‐crossing above 190 nm, (Figs. 2–4), which is characteristic of β‐peptidic 314‐helical structures. Comparison of the CD spectra of the mixed α/β‐pentadecapeptide ( 10 ) and a helical α‐peptide (Fig. 5) indicate the presence of an α‐peptidic 3.613 helix. 相似文献
β‐Diimine zinc dichloride complexes [CH2{C(Me)NAr}2]ZnCl2 [Ar = Mes ( 1 ), Dipp ( 2 )] were obtained from the reactions of ZnCl2 with the corresponding β‐iminoamines [ArN(H)C(Me)CHC(Me)NAr]. Complexes 1 and 2 were characterized by multinuclear NMR (1H, 13C) and IR spectroscopy, elemental analyses as well as by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction. The energy differences between the enamine‐imine tautomers of the β‐iminoamines were quantified by quantum chemical calculations. 相似文献
The importance of β‐peptides lies in their ability to mimic the conformational behavior of α‐peptides, even with a much shorter chain length, and in their resistance to proteases. To investigate the effect of substitution of β‐peptides on their dominant fold, we have carried out a molecular‐dynamics (MD) simulation study of two tetrapeptides, Ac‐(2R,3S)‐β2,3hVal(αMe)‐(2S)‐β2hPhe‐(R)‐β3hLys‐(2R,3S)‐β2,3‐Ala(αMe)‐NH2, differing in the substitution at the Cα of Phe2 (pepF with F, and pepH with H). Three simulations, unrestrained (UNRES), using 3J‐coupling biasing with local elevation in combination with either instantaneous (INS) or time‐averaging (AVE) NOE distance restraining, were carried out for each peptide. In the unrestrained simulations, we find three (pepF) and two (pepH) NOE distance bound violations of maximally 0.22 nm that involve the terminal residues. The restrained simulations match both the NOE distance bounds and 3J‐values derived from experiment. The fluorinated peptide shows a slightly larger conformational variability than the non‐fluorinated one. 相似文献
Novel 2‐(1‐substituted‐1H‐1,2,3‐triazol‐4‐yl)pyridine (pytl) ligands have been prepared by “click chemistry” and used in the preparation of heteroleptic complexes of Ru and Ir with bipyridine (bpy) and phenylpyridine (ppy) ligands, respectively, resulting in [Ru(bpy)2(pytl‐R)]Cl2 and [Ir(ppy)2(pytl‐R)]Cl (R=methyl, adamantane (ada), β‐cyclodextrin (βCD)). The two diastereoisomers of the Ir complex with the appended β‐cyclodextrin, [Ir(ppy)2(pytl‐βCD)]Cl, were separated. The [Ru(bpy)2(pytl‐R)]Cl2 (R=Me, ada or βCD) complexes have lower lifetimes and quantum yields than other polypyridine complexes. In contrast, the cyclometalated Ir complexes display rather long lifetimes and very high emission quantum yields. The emission quantum yield and lifetime (Φ=0.23, τ=1000 ns) of [Ir(ppy)2(pytl‐ada)]Cl are surprisingly enhanced in [Ir(ppy)2(pytl‐βCD)]Cl (Φ=0.54, τ=2800 ns). This behavior is unprecedented for a metal complex and is most likely due to its increased rigidity and protection from water molecules as well as from dioxygen quenching, because of the hydrophobic cavity of the βCD covalently attached to pytl. The emissive excited state is localized on these cyclometalating ligands, as underlined by the shift to the blue (450 nm) upon substitution with two electron‐withdrawing fluorine substituents on the phenyl unit. The significant differences between the quantum yields of the two separate diastereoisomers of [Ir(ppy)2(pytl‐βCD)]Cl (0.49 vs. 0.70) are attributed to different interactions of the chiral cyclodextrin substituent with the Δ and Λ isomers of the metal complex. 相似文献
Two inclusion complexes of β‐cyclodextrin‐7‐hydroxycoumarin ( 1 ) and β‐cyclodextrin‐4‐hydroxycoumarin ( 2 ) were prepared and their crystal structures were investigated by single crystal X‐ray crystallography under cryogenic condition. Both structures consist of stacks of face‐to‐face cyclodextrin dimers arranged in brickwork‐like pattern along the crystallographic a‐axis. For complex 1 , each of the two dimeric β‐cyclodextrins includes one 7‐hydroxycoumarin molecule that penetrates deeply into the cyclodextrin dimer and locates its lactonering at the center of the dimer cavity. For complex 2 , each cyclodextrin dimer accommodates three 4‐hydroxycoumarin molecules. One of them is sandwiched between two units of the cyclodextrin dimer, the other two are shallowly included in the cavities of the dimeric cyclodextrins respectively and protrude their lactone rings from the primary end of the cyclodextrin. The substituent effects of guest molecules on inclusion geometry of various coumarin molecules in β‐cyclodextrin were examined. 相似文献
The data of 1H nuclear magnetic resonance and molar conductivity prove that there is a molecule‐ion interaction between α‐cyclodextrin (α‐CD) and sodium arsenite (SA), and the interaction site is different from that between β‐CD and SA. The packing mode of α‐CD molecules after adduct with SA is changed from cage to channel type. Several experimental phenomena from thermogravimetric analyses and gas chromatography coupled to time‐of‐flight mass spectrometry measurements reveal that the presence of SA has led to a large change of thermal decomposition behavior of α‐CD, and vice versa. The current work reveals the particularity of the interaction between SA and α‐CD, which would provide new insight into the understanding of molecule‐ion interactions. 相似文献
