2,6-Bis-(2,5-dioxo-tetrahydro-N-(4-carboxyphenyl)pyrrol-3-yl)-pyrrolo[3,4-f]isoindole-1,3,5,7-teraone, a chiral diacid, was prepared from pyromellitic anhydride and L-aspartic acid in a three steps reaction pathway.

Microwave-assisted rapid synthesis of novel optically active poly(amide-imide)s containing hydantoins and thiohydantoins in main chain

Rapid and highly efficient synthesis of novel optically active poly(amide-imide)s (PAIs) 6(a-f) was achieved using microwave irradiation. These were made from the polycondensation reactions of 4,4^′-carbonyl-bis(phthaloyl-l-alanine) diacid chloride [N,N^′-(4,4^′-carbonyldiphthaloyl)] bisalanine diacid chloride 5 with six different derivatives of hydantoin and thiohydantoin compounds 4(a-f) in the presence of a small amount of a nonpolar organic medium that acts as a primary microwave absorber. Hydantoin and thiohydantoin derivatives 4(a-e) were synthesis from the reactions between benzil or benzil derivatives 3(a-e) with urea and thiourea. 5,5-Dimethylhydantoin 4f was synthesis from the reactions between acetone cyanohydrin 3f and ammonium carbonate. The polycondensation proceeded rapidly, and was completed within 10 min giving a series of PAIs with an inherent viscosity about 0.25-0.45 dL/g. The resulting PAIs 6(a-f) were obtained in a high yield and were optically active and thermally stable.

Electrochemical detection of DNA hybridization based on polypyrrole/ss-DNA/multi-wall carbon nanotubes paste electrode

A sensitive electrochemical detection of DNA hybridization using a paste electrode assembled by multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWNT) and immobilizing DNA probe within electropolymerized polypyrrole (ppy) was developed. The detection approach relied on entrapping of DNA probe within electropolymerized ppy film on the MWNT paste electrode and monitoring the current change generated from an electroactive intercalator of ethidium bromide (EB) after DNA hybridization. As a consequence of DNA hybridization, significant changes in the current of EB intercalated with double-stranded DNA (ds-DNA) on the MWNT paste electrode were observed. Based on the response of EB, only the complementary DNA sequence gave an obvious current signal compared with the five-point mismatched and non-complementary sequences. The oxidation peak current was linearly related to the logarithm of the concentration of the complementary DNA sequence from 1.0 × 10⁻¹⁰ to 1.0 × 10⁻⁸ M with a detection limit of 8.5 × 10⁻¹¹ M. This work demonstrates that the incorporation of MWNT paste electrode with electropolymerization is a promising strategy of functional interfaces for the immobilization of biological recognition elements.

A new class of optically active poly(amide-imide)s based on an α-amino acid was synthesized via direct polycondensation reaction of different diisocyanates with a chiral diacid monomer. The step-growth polymerization reactions of N-trimellitylimido-S-valine (TISV) (1) with 4,4′-methylene-bis(4-phenylisocyanate) (MDI) (2) was performed under microwave irradiation, as well as solution polymerization under graduate heating and reflux conditions. The optimized polymerization conditions for each method were performed with tolylene-2,4-diisocyanate (TDI) (3), hexamethylene diisocyanate (HDI) (4), and isophorone diisocyanate (IPDI) (5) to produce optically active poly(amide-imide)s via diisocyanate route. The resulting polymers have inherent viscosities in the range of 0.02-1.10 dL/g. Decomposition temperatures for 5% weight loss (T₅) occurred above 300 °C (by TGA) in nitrogen atmospheres. These polymers are optically active, thermally stable and soluble in amide-type solvents. Some structural characterization and physical properties of this new optically active poly(amide-imide)s are reported.

An ionic liquid-type carbon paste electrode for electrochemical investigation and determination of calcium dobesilate

An ionic liquid-type carbon paste electrode (IL-CPE) had been fabricated by replacing non-conductive organic binders with a conductive room temperature ionic liquid, 1-pentyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate (PMIMPF₆). The electrochemical responses of calcium dobesilate were investigated at the IL-CPE and the traditional carbon paste electrode (T-CPE) in 0.05 mol L⁻¹ H₂SO₄, respectively. The results showed the superiority of IL-CPE to T-CPE in terms of provision of higher sensitivity, faster electron transfer and better reversibility. A novel method for determination of calcium dobesilate was proposed. The oxidation peak current was rectilinear with calcium dobesilate concentration in the range of 8.0 × 10⁻⁷ to 1.0 × 10⁻⁴ mol L⁻¹, with a detection limit of 4.0 × 10⁻⁷ mol L⁻¹(S/N = 3) by differential pulse voltammetry. The proposed method was applied to directly determine calcium dobesilate in capsule and urine samples.

An electrochemical sensor for p-aminophenol based on the mesoporous silica modified carbon paste electrode

A mesoporous silica was synthesised and used to modify the surface of carbon paste electrode (CPE). The electrochemical behaviours of p-aminophenol were investigated. Compared to the unmodified CPE, the mesoporous silica-modified CPE obviously lowers the oxidation potential of p-aminophenol, and remarkably increases its oxidation peak current. The effects of pH value, amount of mesoporous silica, accumulation potential and time were examined. As a result, a sensitive, rapid and convenient electroanalytical method was developed for p-aminophenol. The linear range is from 0.025?mg?L^?1 to 3?mg?L^?1, and the limit of detection is 0.01?mg?L^?1 after 2-min accumulation. Finally, the method was successfully used to determine p-aminophenol in water samples.
