B(C6F5)3 as a Highly Effective Catalyst for the Phosphoryl Transfer Reaction

The phosphoryl transfer reactions of diphenyl chlorophosphate with a wide range of alcohols were catalyzed by tris(pentafluorophenyl)boron [B(C₆F₅)₃], giving the corresponding phosphate esters in excellent yields. This methodology has advantages over older ones because it employs the easily handled B(C₆F₅)₃, avoids the side reaction, and has shorter reaction time.     

Solubility of Lanthanide Chlorides ( Ln Cl3) in Alkali Metal Chlorides ( M Cl): Thermodynamics and Electrical Conductivity of the M 3 Ln Cl6 Compounds

Summary.  Several compounds may exist in LnCl₃–MCl mixtures. Those corresponding to the M ₂ LnCl₅ and MLn ₂Cl₇ stoichiometries are formed in a few systems only, with diverse stability strongly dependent on both the corresponding lanthanide and alkali metal. On the other hand, M ₃ LnCl₆ that occur in most systems have a far larger stability range and melt congruently. These latter compounds were investigated in the present work by differential scanning calorimetry and electrical conductivity measurements. The thermodynamic and transport properties were correlated to structural features and related to the mechanism of compound formation. Corresponding author.

Pd/C as Heterogeneous Catalyst for the Direct Arylation of (Poly)fluorobenzenes

The potential of the heterogeneous catalyst 10 % Pd/C in the direct arylation of (poly)fluorobenzene derivatives with aryl bromides has been investigated. In general, high yields of biaryl derivatives were obtained by using tri-, tetra-, and pentafluorobenzenes, whereas mono- and difluorobenzenes exhibited poor reactivity. The regioselectivities of the arylation reactions were similar to those observed with homogeneous palladium catalysts. Both electron-withdrawing and -donating substituents, such as nitrile, nitro, acetyl, ester, trifluoromethyl, tert-butyl, methoxy, or methyl, on the aryl bromide were tolerated. Unexpectedly, tetrafluoro-substituted [1,1′-biphenyl]-4-ols were obtained from pentafluorobenzene at 150 °C due to a formal regioselective hydroxylation, whereas at lower temperatures the expected pentafluorobiphenyls were obtained. However, no C−F bond cleavage was observed with the other polyfluorobenzene derivatives. These arylation reactions were carried out with only 1 mol % Pd/C as the catalyst and KOAc as an inexpensive base. Therefore, this protocol represents a very attractive access to (poly)fluoro-substituted biphenyls in terms of cost, simplicity, and sustainable chemistry because the Pd/C catalyst can be easily removed at the end of the reaction, there is no contamination with phosphine ligand residues, and the major side-product of the reaction is KOAc ⋅ HBr.     

Synthesis and DFT Defined trans (O5O6) Molecular Structure of Cs[Fe(1,3- pddadp )] · 2H2O. Strain Analysis and Spectral Assignment of the Complex

Summary. An iron(III) complex with the hexadentate ligand 1,3-propanediamine-N,N′-diacetate-N,N′-di-3-propionate (1,3-pddadp) was prepared, chromatographically isolated as its isomer trans(O₅O₆)-Cs[Fe(1,3-pddadp)] · 2H₂O, and characterized. The trans(O₅O₆) configuration of the iron(III) compound was found to dominate and this geometry was established by means of IR spectroscopy and Density Functional Theory (DFT). Structural data correlating the octahedral geometry of the [Fe(1,3-pddadp)]⁻ unit and an extensive strain analysis are discussed in relation to the information obtained for similar complexes. Antibacterial activities of the free ligand and its corresponding iron(III) complex towards common Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria are reported as well.     

Study the property of double-ended fluoroalkyl poly(ethylene glycol) hydrogel as a depot for hydrophobic drug delivery using electron paramagnetic resonance technique and cell proliferation assay

Hydrogel formed by fluoroalkyl double-ended polyethylene glycol (R_f-PEG) micelles was studied to assess its properties to encapsulate a hydrophobic electron spin labeled drug, Chlorambucil–Tempol adduct (CT), and to control and sustain the drug release. The drug loaded hydrogel samples were characterized with variable-temperature dependent EPR experiment, and EPR theoretical lineshape analysis. It was found that CT molecules reside in the hydrophobic R_f-cores/IPDU shells of the R_f-PEG micelles and the maximum molecular-level loading capacity was estimated to be 18.8 mg per gram of the R_f-PEG. It has been known that R_f-PEG hydrogel with certain molecular masses for the fluoroalkyl group and the PEG chain shows properties of sol/gel phase coexistence and surface erosion, which represent the favorable condition for a pharmaceutical depot to control the kinetics of drug release. To evaluate the R_f-PEG’s biocompatibility and kinetics of the drug release, a cell proliferation assay was carried out on human oropharyngeal carcinoma (KB) cells. The results show that R_f-PEG is biocompatible and able to release CT to the cell media with a constant equilibrium concentration independent of the amount of CT loaded hydrogel.

New Selenidogermanates with Transition-Metal Complexes as Counterions: Solvothermal Synthesis, Crystal Structures, and Properties of [Mn(en)3]2Ge2Se6 and [Fe(dien)2]2Ge2Se6

Summary. New selenidogermanates [Mn(en)₃]₂Ge₂Se₆ (en = ethylenediamine) and [Fe(dien)₂]₂Ge₂Se₆ (dien= diethylenetriamine) were synthesized by the reaction of germanium dioxide, elemental selenium, and transition metal chlorides in respectively en and dien. Both compounds crystallize in the monoclinic space group P2₁/n with two formula units in the unit cell, and consist of discrete [Ge₂Se₆]⁴⁻ anions with transition metal complex cations as counter ions. The [Ge₂Se₆]⁴⁻ anion is formed by two GeSe₄ tetrahedra sharing a common edge to form a planar Ge₂Se₂ four-membered ring. The [Mn(en)₃]²⁺ and [Ni(dien)₂]²⁺ complex cations are in distorted octahedral geometry. In both selenidogermanates extensive N–H···Se hydrogen bonding contacts lead to 3-dimensional network structures. The band gaps of 2.36 and 2.25 eV were derived from optical absorption spectra. Thermogravimetric analysis shows that the first compound decomposes in two steps under the nitrogen stream, while the second exhibits a one-step decomposition process.     

Development and evaluation of an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) method for the measurement of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid in human urine

An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) method was developed to quantitatively measure 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) in human urine. Samples were diluted (1:5) with phosphate-buffered saline containing 0.05% Tween and 0.02% sodium azide, with analysis by a 96-microwell plate immunoassay format. No clean up was required as dilution step minimized sample interferences. Fifty urine samples were received without identifiers from a subset of pesticide applicators and their spouses in an EPA pesticide exposure study (PES) and analyzed by the ELISA method and a conventional gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) procedure. For the GC/MS analysis, urine samples were extracted with acidic dichloromethane (DCM); methylated by diazomethane and fractionated by a Florisil solid phase extraction (SPE) column prior to GC/MS detection. The percent relative standard deviation (%R.S.D.) of the 96-microwell plate triplicate assays ranged from 1.2 to 22% for the urine samples. Day-to-day variation of the assay results was within ±20%. Quantitative recoveries (>70%) of 2,4-D were obtained for the spiked urine samples by the ELISA method. Quantitative recoveries (>80%) of 2,4-D were also obtained for these samples by the GC/MS procedure. The overall method precision of these samples was within ±20% for both the ELISA and GC/MS methods. The estimated quantification limit for 2,4-D in urine was 30 ng/mL by ELISA and 0.2 ng/mL by GC/MS. A higher quantification limit for the ELISA method is partly due to the requirement of a 1:5 dilution to remove the urine sample matrix effect. The GC/MS method can accommodate a 10:1 concentration factor (10 mL of urine converted into 1 mL organic solvent for analysis) but requires extraction, methylation and clean up on a solid phase column. The immunoassay and GC/MS data were highly correlated, with a correlation coefficient of 0.94 and a slope of 1.00. Favorable results between the two methods were achieved despite the vast differences in sample preparation. Results indicated that the ELISA method could be used as a high throughput, quantitative monitoring tool for human urine samples to identify individuals with exposure to 2,4-D above the typical background levels.

O. Carboxyphenylhydrazoethylacetoacetate as an Analytical Reagent for the Determination of Cu(II) and Co(II) in Complex Materials

An extraction‐spectrophotometric method for the determination of trace amounts of copper and cobalt based on their extraction into n‐pentanol with 0. carboxyphenylhydrazoethylacetoacetate (O.CPHEAA) was per formed. Copper was extracted from pH 6.0 – 8.0 and ionic strength 0.5 M – KCl. The maximum absorption of the extracted Cu(II) ‐ O.CPHEAA complex (1:1 & 1:2 species) occurs at 415 nm. The proposed method succeeded in as saying a concentration of 3–63 μg per 10 mL of n‐pentanol (? = 1.25 × 10⁴L mol^?1 cm^?1). The method failed to ex tract cobalt ion into various organic sol vents over a pH range of 2–11. The suggested method is highly selective and sensitive according to a wide scheme of interference studied. Copper in some plant samples was accurately estimated using the suggested method. The obtained results and the results of the AAS method were consistent. The reproducibility test shows a relative standard deviation of 1%. Sandell sensitivity for A = 0.001 is 5 × 10^?3 μg cm^?2.     

Mass spectrometry assay as an alternative to the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay test for biomarker quantitation in ecotoxicology: Application to vitellogenin in Crustacea (Gammarus fossarum)

Vitellogenin (Vg) is a widespread biomarker for measuring exposure to endocrine disruptors. Vg quantification is usually done by using the ELISA test (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay). Since this test is specific to a target protein, it can rarely be used with other species due to low cross-reactivity across species. Therefore alternative analytical methods have to be considered as the development of a specific and sensitive ELISA test for each new target is time-consuming and may prove unsuccessful. This paper focuses on the development of a quantitative assay by liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) of vitelogenin in an invertebrate (Gammarus fossarum) for which no ELISA kit is available. The linearity of the method was within the concentration range 2.5–25,000 pg/mL and the limit of detection was estimated at 0.75 pg/mL of Vg. This method has been demonstrated to be an alternative to existing immunological methods for quantifying Vg in invertebrates due to its greater sensitivity, specificity and reproducibility (intra- and inter-assay below 15%). This assay was applied for Vg determination in female G. fossarum following exposure to a known endocrine disruptor, methyl farnesoate, in crustaceans. The availability of a quantitative G. fossarum LC-MS/MS assay should open the way for further studies to evaluate xenoestrogen effects in aquatic male G. fossarum.     

Development and validation of an LC‐ESI‐MS/MS quantification method for a potential γ‐aminobutyric acid transporter 3 (GAT3) marker and its application in preliminary MS binding assays

Binding assays for the γ‐aminobutyric acid (GABA) transporter GAT3 can be assumed to significantly facilitate screening for respective inhibitors. As appropriate labeled ligands for this promising drug target are not available so far, we started efforts to set up mass spectrometry‐based binding assays (MS binding assays), for which labeled markers are not required. Therefore, we developed a sensitive and rapid LC‐ESI‐MS/MS quantification method for DDPM‐1007 {(RS)‐1‐[4,4,4‐Tris(4‐methoxyphenyl)but‐2‐en‐1‐yl]piperidine‐3‐carboxylic acid}, one of the most potent GAT3 inhibitors yet known, as a potential GAT3 marker. Using a 50 × 2 mm C₈ column in combination with a mobile phase composed of 10 mm ammonium bicarbonate buffer pH 8.0 and acetonitrile (60:40, v/v) at a flow rate of 450 μL/min DDPM‐1007 could be analyzed in the positive multiple reaction monitoring mode [(m/z) 502.5 → 265.4] within a chromatographic cycle time of 3 min. Deuterated DDPM‐1007 [(²H₉)DDPM‐1007] was synthesized and employed as internal standard. This way DDPM‐1007 could be quantified in a range from 100 pm to10 nm in the matrix resulting from respective binding experiments without any sample preparation. The established quantification method met the requirements of the FDA guidance for bioanalytical method validation concerning linearity and intra‐ and inter‐batch accuracy. Based on this LC‐ESI‐MS/MS quantification preliminary MS binding assays employing membrane preparations obtained from a stably GAT3 expressing HEK293 cell line and DDPM‐1007 as nonlabeled GAT3 marker could be performed. In these experiments specific binding of DDPM‐1007 at GAT3 could be unambiguously detected. Additionally, the established LC‐MS method provides a suitable analytical tool for further pharmacokinetic characterization of DDPM‐1007, as exemplified for its logD determination.
