NiTi过渡金属团簇的结构和芳香性的理论研究

在B3PW91/6-311+G(d)计算水平上, 计算并讨论了Ni₄Ti₂, [Ni₄Ti₂]²⁺, [Ni₄Ti₂]^2-与Ni₄Ti₄, [Ni₄Ti₄]²⁺, [Ni₄Ti₄]^2-团簇的几何结构和芳香性. 在构型优化过程中得到了Ni₄Ti₂(D_4h), [Ni₄Ti₂]²⁺(D_4h), [Ni₄Ti₂]^2-(D_4h)和Ni₄Ti₄(D_2h)4个稳定构型, 发现当引入上下2个Ti原子后, Ni₄环成为了平面正方形构型. 核无关化学位移(NICS)计算结果表明, Ni₄Ti₂(D_4h)与Ni₄Ti₄(D_2h)的NICS值为正, 而[Ni₄Ti₂]²⁺(D_4h)和[Ni₄Ti₂]^2-(D_4h)的NICS值为负, 且[Ni₄Ti₂]^2-(D_4h)的NICS值更负. 同时还发现, 由s与d轨道参与形成的反磁性环流是引起[Ni₄Ti₂]²⁺(D_4h)和[Ni₄Ti₂]^2-(D_4h)具有较大芳香性的主要原因; 其中Ti原子主要提供d_z²与s轨道, 而Ni原子主要利用其d_z²与d_x²-y²轨道形成正方形环, 它们之间构成了球状的d轨道环流, 且[Ni₄Ti₂]²⁺(D_4h)和[Ni₄Ti₂]^2-(D_4h)中还有非常明显的π轨道环流.

离子液体的组成及溶剂性质与木瓜蛋白酶催化特性的关系

离子液体的组成及溶剂性质对木瓜蛋白酶催化D,L-对羟基苯甘氨酸甲酯不对称水解反应有重要的影响. 木瓜蛋白酶在含CnMIm·BF4(n=2~6)介质中表现出较高的活性、对映体选择性及稳定性, 而在含有C4MIm·HSO4, C4MIm·Cl, C4MIm·NO3, C4MIm·CH3COO的介质中表现较低的对应值. 在含有CnMIm·BF4(n=2~6)的介质中, 酶活性随离子液体的极性增大而提高, 但在含有C4MIm·HSO4, C4MIm·Cl, C4MIm·NO3, C4MIm·CH3COO的介质中随离子液体的极性增大反而降低. 木瓜蛋白酶的对映体选择性和稳定性均随着离子液体的疏水性增大而提高. 荧光分析结果表明, 离子液体对酶分子构象具有显著的影响. 在CnMIm·BF4(n=2~6)的介质中, 木瓜蛋白酶的最大荧光发射波长(λmax)均蓝移, 而在含有C4MIm·HSO4, C4MIm·Cl, C4MIm·NO3或C4MIm·CH3COO的介质中, λmax均红移. 与CnMIm·BF4(n=2~6)相比, 在C4MIm·HSO4, C4MIm·Cl, C4MIm·NO3或C4MIm·CH3COO中, 酶分子构象的变化较大, 暴露的疏水区域较多.     

苯甲醛在离子液体中的电化学行为

应用线性扫描循环伏安法、方波循环伏安法和计时电量法测定苯甲醛在3种离子液体C4M IMBF4、C6M IMBF4和C8M IMBF4中的电化学行为.实验表明,在C4M IIVIBF4离子液体中苯甲醛于GC电极上的还原包含两个连续、不可逆单电子过程,对应的方波I~E曲线峰电位Ep为-1.39 V和-1.69 V,估算的扩散系数分别为D1=1.5×10-8cm2/s和D2=1.3×10-8cm2/s.而在C6M IMBF4和C8M IMBF4离子液体中,则苯甲醛于GC电极仅显示一个电流峰,这可能是因为C4M IMBF4的碱性较C6M IMBF4和C8M IMBF4弱的缘故;而电流的衰减时间亦依C4M IMBF4,C6M IMBF4,C8M IMBF4,次序增长,并会导致更慢的异相动力学过程.

Theoretical study on tetranuclear boron clusters: B4X4 (X = H, F, Cl, Br, I)

The molecular orbitals for B4H4, B4F4, B4Cl4, B4Br4 and B4I4 have been calculated by using all-electron or effective core potential ab initio method at the self-consistent field level using basis sets with diffuse and polarization functions. The boron-boron and boron-halide (-hydrogen) distances of these cage compounds are optimized with three kinds of basis sets constrained to a tetrahedral symmetry. According to the localization scheme of Boys, four three-centered two-electron (3c2e) B-B-B bonds localized on each of the faces of the B4 tetrahedron are derived for B4X4 clusters. The HOMO-LUMO energy gaps, atomization energies and Mulliken overlap populations of these compounds indicate that the stabilities of the clusters decrease in the sequence of B4F4 > B4Cl4, B4H4 > B4Br4 > B4I4.     

Current Advances towards 4-Hydroxybutyrate Containing Polyhydroxyalkanoates Production for Biomedical Applications

Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) are polyesters having high promise in biomedical applications. Among different types of PHA, poly-4-hydroxybutyrate (P4HB) is the only polymer that has received FDA approval for medical applications. However, most PHA producing microorganisms lack the ability to synthesize P4HB or PHA comprising 4-hydroxybutyrate (4HB) monomer due to their absence of a 4HB monomer supplying pathway. Thus, most microorganisms require supplementation of 4HB precursors to synthesize 4HB polymers. However, usage of 4HB precursors incurs additional production cost. Therefore, researchers have adopted strategies to reduce the cost, such as utilizing low-cost substrate as well as constructing 4HB monomer supplying pathways in microorganisms. We herein summarize the biomedical applications of P4HB, the natural producers of 4HB polymer, and the various strategies that have been applied in producing 4HB polymers in non-4HB producing microorganisms. It is expected that the readers would gain a vivid idea on the different strategic developments in the field of 4HB polymer production.

Eight-vertex tetrametallic structures derived from cubanes: a close relationship between bisdisphenoidal metallaborane and organometallic clusters

The metallaborane Cp4Co4B4H4 and the organometallic cluster Cp4Fe4C4H4 (Cp = eta5-cyclopentadienyl) not only are isoelectronic but also exhibit completely analogous eight-vertex bisdisphenoidal structures. Such structures, as well as the tetracapped tetrahedral structure of the Cp4Fe4(mu3-CO)4 precursor to Cp4Fe4C4H4, can be derived from a cube by insertion of diagonals in each of the six faces. Furthermore, the formation of Cp4Fe4C4H4 from Cp4Fe4(mu3-CO)4 can be described as a double diamond-square-diamond process preserving D2d symmetry throughout the process.

Synthesis and rearrangement of 4-imino-4H-3,1-benzoxazines

Summary N-Acylanthranilamides react with dibromotriphenylphosphorane in the presence of triethylamine as HBr captor to give 4-imino-4H-3,1-benzoxazines in good yields. If the reaction is carried out without acid acceptor, N-acetylanthranilamides yield 2-methyl-4-quinazolones, whereas N-benzoylanthranilamides give 2-phenyl-4-imino-4H-3,1-benzoxazines. It has also been found that 2-methyl-4-imino-4H-3,1-benzoxazines rearrange under the influence of HCl or HBr into the respective 2-methyl-4-quinazolones; 2-phenyl-4-imino-4H-3,1-benzoxazines, however, do not undergo such a rearrangement.

An unusual nicotinamide derivative, 4-pyridone-3-carboxamide ribonucleoside (4PYR), is a novel endothelial toxin and oncometabolite

Our recent studies identified a novel pathway of nicotinamide metabolism that involves 4-pyridone-3-carboxamide-1-β-D-ribonucleoside (4PYR) and demonstrated its endothelial cytotoxic effect. This study tested the effects of 4PYR and its metabolites in experimental models of breast cancer. Mice were divided into groups: 4T1 (injected with mammary 4T1 cancer cells), 4T1 + 4PYR (4PYR-treated 4T1 mice), and control, maintained for 2 or 21 days. Lung metastasis and endothelial function were analyzed together with blood nucleotides (including 4PYR), plasma amino acids, nicotinamide metabolites, and vascular ectoenzymes of nucleotide catabolism. 4PYR metabolism was also evaluated in cultured 4T1, MDA-MB-231, MCF-7, and T47D cells. An increase in blood 4PYR in 4T1 mice was observed at 2 days. 4PYR and its metabolites were noticed after 21 days in 4T1 only. Higher blood 4PYR was linked with more lung metastases in 4T1 + 4PYR vs. 4T1. Decreased L-arginine, higher asymmetric dimethyl-L-arginine, and higher vascular ecto-adenosine deaminase were observed in 4T1 + 4PYR vs. 4T1 and control. Vascular relaxation caused by flow-dependent endothelial activation in 4PYR-treated mice was significantly lower than in control. The permeability of 4PYR-treated endothelial cells was increased. Decreased nicotinamide but enhanced nicotinamide metabolites were noticed in 4T1 vs. control. Reduced N-methylnicotinamide and a further increase in Met2PY were observed in 4T1 + 4PYR vs. 4T1 and control. In cultured breast cancer cells, estrogen and progesterone receptor antagonists inhibited the production of 4PYR metabolites. 4PYR formation is accelerated in cancer and induces metabolic disturbances that may affect cancer progression and, especially, metastasis, probably through impaired endothelial homeostasis. 4PYR may be considered a new oncometabolite.Subject terms: Mechanisms of disease, Pathogenesis, Breast cancer

Three novel photoisomeric compounds of the 4-acyl pyrazolone derivants: Crystal structures and substituent effects on photo-isomerism in solid state

Three new photoisomeric compounds: 1,3-diphenyl-4-benzal-5-pyrazolone 4-methylthiosemicarbazone (DPBP-MTSC), 1,3-diphenyl-4-(4′-methylbenzal)-5-pyrazolone 4-methylthiosemicarbazone (DP4MBP- MTSC), and 1,3-diphenyl-4-(4′-bromobenzal)-5-pyrazolone 4-methylthiosemicarbazone (DP4BrBP-MTSC) were synthesized by direct condensation of pyrazolones and 4-methylthiosemicarbazone. Their struc- tures were confirmed using 1H NMR, IR, elemental analyses, and X-ray crystallographic analyses. The photoisomeric properties in the solid state were studied under UV light irradiation and the photo- isomerization phenomena were interpreted by the double proton-transfer mechanism. Moreover, the effects of different substituent groups at the 4-position of the benzal in the three compounds on the photoisomeric properties were discussed.     

The conjugative metabolism of 4-methylumbelliferone and deconjugation to the parent drug examined by isolated perfused liver and in vitro liver homogenate of rats

We examined the disposition of 4-methylumbelliferone (4-MU) and its conjugative metabolites, glucuronide (4-MUG) and sulfate (4-MUS), using a single-pass rat liver perfusion system. When 4-MU was delivered, the steady-state hepatic extraction ratio for 4-MU was very high (approximately 1.0) and its conjugative metabolites, 4-MUG and 4-MUS, appeared to a large extent in the effluent perfusate. The biliary excretion rate of the 4-MUG conjugated from 4-MU was 44% of the infusion rate at the steady-state, whereas those of 4-MU and 4-MUS were less than 1% of the infusion rate. When 4-MUG was delivered, the steady-state hepatic extraction ratio for 4-MUG was very low (less than 0.05) and the removal rate of 4-MUG from the perfusate was almost identical to the excretion rate of 4-MUG into the bile, while 4-MU and 4-MUS were slightly excreted into the bile (1% of the total biliary excretion rate), suggesting that a little deconjugation of 4-MUG to 4-MU occurred in the liver. Similarly, 4-MU and 4-MUS were not detectable in the effluent perfusate. The apparent extraction ratio (Eapp) for the intracellularly conjugated 4-MUG was approximately twenty times higher than that for the pre-conjugated 4-MUG. This discrepancy between the values of Eapp for the intracellularly conjugated and pre-conjugated 4-MUG might be attributed mainly to the diffusional barrier for the metabolite between the blood and hepatocytes, as suggested in the previous simulation (J. Pharmacokin, Biopharm., 15, 399 (1987].(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)     

Generation and collision-induced dissociation of ammonium tetrafluoroborate cluster ions

Singly and doubly charged cluster ions of ammonium tetrafluoroborate (NH4BF4) with general formula [(NH4BF4)nNH4]+ and [(NH4BF4)m(NH4)2]2+, respectively, were generated by electrospray ionization (ESI) and their fragmentation examined using collision-induced dissociation (CID) and ion-trap tandem mass spectrometry. CID of [(NH4BF4)nNH4]+ caused the loss of one or more neutral NH4BF4 units. The n = 2 cluster, [(NH4BF4)2NH4]+, was unique in that it also exhibited a dissociation pathway in which HBF4 was eliminated to create [(NH4BF4)(NH3)NH4]+. Dissociation of [(NH4BF4)m(NH4)2]2+ occurred through two general pathways: (a) 'fission' to produce singly charged cluster ions and (b) elimination of one or more neutral NH4BF4 units to leave doubly charged product ions. CID profiles, and measurements of changing precursor and product ion signal intensity as a function of applied collision voltage, were collected for [(NH4BF4)nNH4]+ and compared with those for analogous [(NaBF4)nNa]+ and [(KBF4)nK]+ ions to determine the influence of the cation on the relative stability of cluster ions. In general, the [(NH4BF4)nNH4]+ clusters were found to be easier to dissociate than both the sodium and potassium clusters of comparable size, with [(KBF4)nK]+ ions the most difficult to dissociate.     

Synthesis and reactions of 4-(arylhydrazino)coumarins

The interaction of 4-hydroxycoumarin with phenyl-, 2-chlorophenyl- and 4-bromophenyhydrazine hydrochlorides in the presence of triethylamine led in all cases to the corresponding 4-(arylhydrazino)-coumarins and 1-aryl-3-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-2H-pyrazolin-5-ones. 4-(Arylhydrazino)coumarins reacted with 4-chlorobenzaldehyde in the presence of piperidine acetate to give the corresponding 2-aryl-3-(4-chlorophenyl)[1]benzopyrano[4,3-b]pyrazol-4-ones. The reaction of 4-(4-bromophenylhydrazino)-coumarin with 4-chlorobenzaldehyde in the presence of piperidine acetate and an excess of piperidine gave 2-(4-bromophenyl)-5-(4-chlorophenyl)-3-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-4-(piperidinocarbonyl)pyrazole, but the reaction of phenyl- and 4-(2-chlorophenylhydrazino)coumarins with 4-chlorobenzaldehyde gave 1-aryl-5-(4-chlorophenyl)-3-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-4-(1-piperidino)carbonyl-4,5-dihydropyrazoles.
