人工氧载体研究进展

血液需求的激增和异体输血的不安全性等问题的出现,促使人们合成“血液替代品”。通过对天然氧载体(即血红蛋白)结构与性能的清晰认识,已有多种人工氧载体被成功合成,并应用于临床试验。人工氧载体可分为全氟碳化合物、血红蛋白基氧载体、合成血红素及其高分子配合物三大类。全氟碳化合物虽大部分已退出人工血液市场,但因其具有治疗作用,研究工作仍在进行。为了降低血红蛋白基氧载体的副作用,已采用多种方法对血红蛋白进行改性,如采用化学修饰、微囊包裹(HbV)、重组和仿生纳米等技术。其中,血红蛋白囊泡模拟红细胞的结构,其粒径相对较大(250nm),副作用相对较低,是目前血红蛋白基氧载体的发展趋势。人工合成血红素如栏式卟啉只溶于有机溶剂,为增加其水溶性,可使其与白蛋白、木糖醇酶和环糊精等高分子结合为配合物,经动物实验表明,这些高分子金属配合物在体内具有运送氧气功能。除主要在临床上用作血液代替品外,人工氧载体还在肿瘤治疗、器官移植和缺血/再灌注损伤的预防等方面具有重要的临床应用价值。     

蛋白质高分子结合体

蛋白质高分子结合体是蛋白质与高分子化合物以特定位置或方式结合的产物。其中,蛋白质(包括酶和多肽)分子中氨基酸残基上的氨基、巯基和羧基是常用的结合位点。本文主要对蛋白质高分子结合体的制备方法进行了综述。聚乙二醇是合成高分子中能够有效改善蛋白质性能的修饰剂,而多糖则是用于制备蛋白质高分子结合体较成功的天然高分子化合物。“点击化学”、活性聚合技术等技术已经被成功应用于蛋白质高分子结合体的制备。某些具有特异结合功能基团的化合物(如金属卟啉、生物素等)与高分子共价结合后也可制备蛋白质高分子结合体。在研究蛋白质高分子结合体制备方法的基础上,近年来开始了这类大分子的自组装行为研究,尤其是对巨型双亲性分子自组装行为的研究,这为设计和构筑先进功能材料提供了新的思路。与高分子化合物的结合是改善蛋白质性能和拓宽蛋白质应用范围的重要技术之一。蛋白质高分子结合体不但可用于生物医药领域,而且在纳米技术和材料科学等领域具有潜在的优势。

CoFe2O4自形成磁性液体场致结构化对磁化的影响

The Langevin paramagnetic theory can’t describe the relation between magnetization of ferrofluids and applied magnetic field. The structuralization of ferrofluids, which is considered the main influence factor of the magnetization, is regarded. The part of magnetization works is deposited when the structure is forming. This action influences the magnetization of ferrofluids directly or indirectly. On the base of the “compressing” model, the Langevin function that usually describes the magnetization of ferrofluid is modified, and a well-fitted curve is obtained. An equation of the relation between the equivalent volume fraction after being “compressed” and the intensity of magnetic field is discovered, which approximately describes the process of magnetization. The relation between the approximate initial susceptibility and the volume fraction can be obtained from modified formula.

A general and convenient synthesis of 4-(tosylmethyl)semicarbazones and their use in amidoalkylation of hydrogen,heteroatom, and carbon nucleophiles

A general synthesis of previously unknown semicarbazone-based α-amidoalkylating reagents, 4-(tosylmethyl)semicarbazones, has been developed. The synthesis involved three-component condensation of semicarbazones of aliphatic or aromatic aldehydes with the same or other aldehydes and p-toluenesulfinic acid. The scope and limitations of this reaction were investigated. The compounds obtained were demonstrated to be an efficient α-(4-semicarbazono)alkylating agents. They were reacted with H- (sodium borohydride), O- (sodium methylate), S- (sodium phenylthiolate), N- (pyrrolidine, sodium succinimide), P- (trialkyl phosphites), and C-nucleophiles (sodium diethyl malonate) to give the corresponding products of the tosyl group substitution, 4-substituted semicarbazones, including analogues of nitrofurazone. Among the prepared compounds tested in vitro for antibacterial and antifungal activity, three nitrofuryl-containing semicarbazones exhibited high biological activities with minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values of 8–32 μg/mL.     

Sulfur-directed metal-free and regiospecific methyl C(sp3)–H imidation of thioanisoles

Regiospecific and direct imidation of the methyl C(sp³)–H bond of thioanisoles is realized under mild and metal-free conditions with N-fluorobis(benzenesulfonyl)imide as an oxidant and nitrogen source. Proposed mechanism suggests that thionium ion intermediates and a Pummerer-type reaction are involved. The imidation has advantages such as high step-economy, excellent functionality tolerance, and regiospecificity, giving structurally diverse imidation products.     

Synthesis of novel chiral bidentate hydroxyalkyl-N-heterocyclic carbene ligands and their application in palladium-catalyzed Mizoroki–Heck couplings and asymmetric addition of diethylzinc to benzaldehyde

A small library of new chiral bidentate hydroxyalkyl-imidazolium salts 1 is conveniently synthesized on multi-gram scale from inexpensive and commercially available chiral pool amino acids. The corresponding carbenes, generated by deprotonation of imidazolium salts 1, in combination with palladium(II) chloride were tested in the Mizoroki–Heck coupling reaction. The most significant results in terms of yields and reactivities were achieved with low catalyst loading. The catalytic activities of these imidazolium salts were also investigated in the asymmetric addition of diethylzinc to benzaldehyde. The use of MgO nanoparticles as an additive in conjunction with these ligands played a crucial role in increasing the efficiency of these reactions.
