Determination and differentiation of nitrilotriacetic acid and ethylenediaminetetra-acetic acid

Ethylenediaminetetra-acetic acid (EDTA) and nitrilotri-acetic acid (NTA) can be differentiated and determined by titration with metal ions to visual metallochromic dye end-points. EDTA can be determined without interference from NTA, either by titrating with copper(II) at pH 5 using PAN indicator, or by titrating with iron(III) at pH 6 and 70 degrees using Tiron indicator. The total chelating power (EDTA + NTA) can be determined either by titrating with lead(II) at pH 4.4 using dithizone indicator, or by titrating with iron(III) at pH 3.5 using Tiron indicator ; NTA is determined by difference. The lowest concentration at which NTA can be determined in EDTA by titration to the iron(III)-Tiron end-point is about 1 wt.%. The apparent stability constants of the iron(III)-Tiron complexes under the conditions of the titration at pH 3.5 and pH 6 have been determined using the method of continuous variations.     

Aminophosphonic and aminophosphinic acid analogues of aspartic acid

4-Oxoazetidin-2-ylphosphonates and phosphinates, obtained from Arbusov reactions of 4-acetoxyazetidin-2-one and 4α-acetoxy-3β-phthalimido-2-one with a variety of phosphites and phosphonites, were hyrdolysed to β-phosphono- and β-phosphino β-alanine (phosphono- and phosphinoaspartic acid) derivatives. In model studies for their incorporation in peptides, conditions for the selective removal of protecting groups for carboxylic acids, phosphonic and phosphinic acids, and amines, in derived di- and tri-peptides were investigated. Alanyl and alanyl alanyl peptide incorporation into bacteria was studied.     

Protonation study of peroxynitric acid and peroxynitrous acid

The equilibrium structures and harmonic vibrational frequencies of peroxynitric acid (HOONO(2)) and seven structures of protonated peroxynitric acid, along with peroxynitrous acid (HOONO) and its 12 protonated peroxynitrous acid structures, have been investigated using several ab initio and density functional methods. The ab initio methods include second-order Moller-Plesset perturbation theory, quadratic configuration interaction, including single and double excitations theory (QCISD), and the QCISD(T) methods, which incorporate a perturbational estimate of the effects of connected triple excitation. The Becke three-parameter hybrid functional combined with Lee, Yang, and Parr correlation function is the density functional method used. The lowest energy form of protonated peroxynitric acid is a complex between H(2)O(2) and NO(+) rather than between H(2)O and NO(2) (+). For peroxynitrous acid, a complex between H(2)O(2) and NO(2) (+) is found to be the lowest energy structure. The ab initio proton affinity (PA) of HOONO and HOONO(2) is predicted to be 182.1 and 175.1 kcal mol(-1), respectively, at the QCISD(T)/6-311++G(3df,3pd) level of theory. The results are contrasted with an earlier study on nitrous acid, and is shown that peroxynitric acid and peroxynitrous acid have a smaller PA than nitrous acid.     

Stereoselective synthesis of malyngic acid and fulgidic acid

A new stereoselective total synthesis of malyngic acid has been achieved from a known oxazolidinone derivative via eight steps involving the Evans asymmetric alkylation as the chirality-inducing step and chelation-controlled Zn(BH₄)₂ reduction of an α-hydroxy ketone intermediate for the installation of the 12,13-anti stereochemistry. Fulgidic acid, the C12-epimer of malyngic acid, has also been synthesized in eight steps from the same starting material by using syn-selective K-Selectride reduction of an α-alkoxy ketone intermediate.

Determination of ascorbic acid, dehydroascorbic acid, and isoascorbic acid in blood

Summary High-performance liquid chromatography with UV-detection at 254 nm was used for determining ascorbic acid, dehydroascorbic acid, and isoascorbic acid in plasma and erythrocytes obtained from healthy volunteers and from patients with coronary infarct, acute lymphatic leukemia (ALL), and acute myeloic leukemia (AML). Deproteinisation was done by a simple ultrafiltration technique. Dehydroascorbic acid (DHA) was determined after reduction to ascorbic acid with dithiothreitol. The separation system chosen allows the search for the stereoisomer isoascorbic acid. To exclude interfering substances which could coelute with ascorbic or isoascorbic acid, several other compounds present in plasma were investigated including e.g. the aromatic amino acids, glutathione, cysteine, and uric acid. The results reveal a drastic decrease in total vitamin C concentration in plasma and erythrocytes with a concomitant increase in rel. DHA concentration in patients with AML. In ALL patients, both the total vitamin C and rel. DHA concentrations were increased.

Bestimmung von Ascorbinsäure, Dehydroascorbinsäure und Isoascorbinsäure in Blut

Zusammenfassung High-performance-liquid-Chromatographie mit UV-Nachweis bei 254 nm wurde zur Bestimmung von Ascorbinsäure, Dehydroascorbinsäure und Isoascorbinsäure in Plasma und Erythrocyten von gesunden Probanden und von Patienten mit Herzinfarkt, akuter lymphatischer Leukämie (ALL) und akuter myeloischer Leukämie (AML) benutzt. Deproteinisierung erfolgte mittels einer einfachen Ultrafiltrationstechnik. Dehydroascorbinsäure wurde nach Reduktion mit Dithiothreitol als Ascorbinsäure bestimmt. Die benutzte Methode erlaubt auch die Bestimmung des Stereoisomers Isoascorbinsäure. Der mögliche Einfluß von im Plasma vorkommenden Substanzen auf die Bestimmung des Vitamin C wurde untersucht. Die Ergebnisse zeigen eine drastische Abnahme der Gesamt-Vitamin C-Konzentration in Plasma und Erythrocyten mit einer parallelen Zunahme der relativen DHA-Konzentration in AML-Patienten. In ALL-Patienten sind sowohl die Gesamt-Vitamin C- als auch die relative DHA-Konzentrationen erhöht.

     

Raman spectra of glycolic acid,l-lactic acid and d,l-lactic acid oligomers

Polymerization of glycolic acid, l- and d,l-lactic acid was followed by Raman spectroscopy in aqueous solution at different concentrations, in viscous and solid states. The Raman spectra of some oligomers obtained by progressive polycondensation of α-hydroxycarboxylic acid aqueous solutions were investigated in the 200–18 cm⁻¹ region. Vibrational analysis revealed the characteristic peaks of ester groups that appeared in the repeat unit of the polymeric chain during the polymerization reaction, and those of the monomers which disappeared. In particular, the ν(CC) stretching vibrations occur in the 800–1000 cm⁻¹ range, which is easily accessible because of the weak diffusion of water. Moreover, spectral monitoring of the semicrystalline sample of poly(glycolic acid) oligomers showed Raman peaks associated with the vibrations of the polymer in the amorphous and semicrystalline states.     

Acylation of hydrazides with acetic acid and formic acid

In peptide synthesis, hydrazides are important intermediates for the azide coupling method. A hydrazide is converted to the corresponding azide in the presence of an acid and a nitrite. When acetic acid (or formic acid) is used as the acid, partial acetylation (or formylation) of the hydrazide occurs as a side reaction. Formylation of the hydrazide is much faster than acetylation. Removal of the formyl group on the hydrazide with hydrazine and hydroxylamine was studied. The rate of deformylation with hydrazine treatment is faster than that with hydroxylamine treatment.

Synthesis and acid catalysis of cellulose-derived carbon-based solid acid

SO₃H-bearing amorphous carbon, prepared by partial carbonization of cellulose followed by sulfonation in fuming H₂SO₄, was applied as a solid catalyst for the acid-catalyzed hydrolysis of β-1,4 glucan, including cellobiose and crystalline cellulose. Structural analyses revealed that the resulting carbon material consists of graphene sheets with 1.5 mmol g^?1 of SO₃H groups, 0.4 mmol g^?1 of COOH, and 5.6 mmol g^?1 of phenolic OH groups. The carbon catalyst showed high catalytic activity for the hydrolysis of β-1,4 glycosidic bonds in both cellobiose and crystalline cellulose. Pure crystalline cellulose was not hydrolyzed by conventional strong solid Brønsted acid catalysts such as niobic acid, Nafion^® NR-50, and Amberlyst-15, whereas the carbon catalyst efficiently hydrolyzes cellulose into water-soluble saccharides. The catalytic performance of the carbon catalyst is due to the large adsorption capacity for hydrophilic reactants and the adsorption ability of β-1,4 glucan, which is not adsorbed to other solid acids.
