Ligand-exchange processes on solvated lithium cations: DMSO and water/DMSO mixtures.

Solutions of LiClO(4) in solvent mixtures consisting of dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) and water, or DMSO and gamma-butyrolactone, were studied by (7)Li NMR spectroscopy (for complexation by cryptands in gamma-butyrolactone as a solvent, see: E. Pasgreta, R. Puchta, M. Galle, N. J. R. van Eikema Hommes, A. Zahl, R. van Eldik, J. Incl. Phen., 2007, 58, 81-88). Chemical shifts indicate that the Li(+) ion is coordinated by four DMSO molecules. In the binary solvent mixture of water and DMSO, no selective solvation is detected, thus indicating that on increasing the water content of the solvent mixture, DMSO is gradually displaced by water in the coordination sphere of Li(+). The ligand-exchange mechanism of Li(+) ions solvated by DMSO and water/DMSO mixtures was studied using DFT calculations. Ligand exchange on [Li(DMSO)(4)](+) was found to follow a limiting associative (A) mechanism. The displacement of coordinated H(2)O by DMSO in [Li(H(2)O)(4)](+) follows an associative interchange mechanism. The suggested mechanisms are discussed in reference to available experimental and theoretical data.     

Leaf anatomy affects the extraction of photosynthetic pigments by DMSO

Dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) is a widely used solvent for the extraction of chlorophylls (Chls) from leaves of higher plants. The method is preferred because the time-consuming steps of grinding and centrifuging are not required and the extracts are stable for a long time period. However, the extraction efficiency of this solvent is not comparable among plant species, whereas the particular leaf anatomical characteristics responsible for this unevenness remain unknown. In order to examine the influence of leaf anatomy on the extraction efficiency of DMSO (i.e. the concentration of Chls extracted with DMSO as % of the concentration of Chls extracted with 80% acetone), leaves of 19 plant species with different anatomical characteristics were incubated for 40min in DMSO at 65 degrees C. Under these conditions, heterobaric leaves, which are characterized by the occurrence of bundle sheath extensions in the mesophyll, showed lower extraction efficiency of DMSO compared to homobaric leaves and conifer needles. Microscopical observations of DMSO incubated leaf tissues showed that bundle sheath extensions behave as anatomical barriers which prevent the diffusion of DMSO within heterobaric leaves, even after prolonged incubation with the solvent. The effect was stronger in heterobaric leaves possessing thick bundle sheath extensions. The extraction efficiency of DMSO in these leaves was improved by vacuum infiltration of the samples in the presence of warm (65 degrees C) solvent.     

Studies on silver(I) solvation in binary solvent mixtures containing dimethylsulfoxide. IV determination of solvent transference numbers for AgSCN and ionic coordination numbers of Ag+ in methanol-dimethylsulfoxide mixtures at 25°C

Solvent transport by AgSCN in the methanol (M)+dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) system has been studied at 25°C by e.m.f. measurements. The solvent transference number of DMSO is positive as its concentration increases in the cathode compartment during electrolysis. The solubility of AgSCN has been determined in methanol, in DMSO and in methanol-DMSO mixtures. Using the known Gibbs free energy of solvation for the Ag⁺ ion, the corresponding energy for SCN, was found to be independent of the mole fraction. The experimental solvent transference numbers therefore only represent the contribution of Ag⁺, this is because it is preferentially solvated by DMSO. A coordination model has been applied to the Gibbs free energy of transfer of Ag⁺ in order to obtain coordination numbers thereby allowing calculation of solvent transference numbers. The experimental and the calculated solvent transference numbers are in good agreement at mole fractions of DMSO greater than 0.5. In highly methanolic solutions the assumption that the solvation of Ag⁺ in the solvent system studied is adequately represented by a total coordination number of four, proves to be too simple.     

Solvent effects on the photochemistry of dimethyl sulfoxide–Cl complexes studied by combined pulse radiolysis and laser flash photolysis

Photolysis of complexes of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) with chlorine atoms results in rapid and permanent photobleaching which may be due to intramolecular hydrogen abstraction. The effects of solvent polarity were examined in a wide variety of DMSO–carbon tetrachloride mixed solvents. The quantum yields of photobleaching decreased from 0.27 to 0.08 as the solvent polarity increased, while significant changes were observed in the low DMSO concentration range (<0.2 mol dm⁻³). This cannot be accounted for by simple solvent polarity effects. The effects of polar and nonpolar additives were also examined and it is concluded that the specific solvation effect of DMSO was the main cause of the significant change in quantum yields in the low concentration range of DMSO.     

Preparation of Polyacrylonitrile Microfibers Using Gelation and Phase Separation During the Solution Polymerization of Acrylonitrile

Polyacrylonitrile (PAN) microfibrils were prepared directly via the solution polymerization of acrylonitrile at specified ratios of controlling solvent dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) to non‐solvent tert‐butyl alcohol. At first, gel formation occurred due to the interaction between DMSO and the cyano groups of PAN. The microfibrillar structure was then formed through the phase separation of PAN molecules from the gel. It is shown that very small variations in the solvent/non‐solvent ratio facilitate a major change in the gelation and phase separation processes.     

Graft Photopolymerization of Styrene to Wheat Gluten Protein in Dimethyl Sulfoxide

To determine the suitability of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) as a solvent for photo polymerization, solutions of wheat gluten protein (0.28-0.93% by weight) and styrene (4.13-12.65% by weight) in DMSO were irradiated by a 200.W high-pressure mercury arc lamp from 3 min up to 1 hr. Graft copolymers of gluten styrene resulted that contained styrene residues ranging from 2 to 23% by weight. When gluten protein was photolyzed in DMSO alone, a significant amount of sulfur from the solvent was incorporated; however, styrene successfully competed with the solvent for free radical sites. The rate of grafting was directly related to both the concentration of gluten and of styrene. Also, the ratio of grafted polystyrene to gluten in the graft polymer indicated that the grafts were composed of small units of polystyrene.     

Associated species of dimethylsulfoxide: Semiempirical modeling

Quantum chemical calculations have been carried to gain insight into the self-association of dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO), the interaction of DMSO with a solvent, and the protonation of DMSO. Different species that may be present in DMSO solutions have been modeled semiempirically.     

Effects of clustering structure on volumetric properties of amino acids in (DMSO + water) mixtures

For a better understanding on the functions of DMSO in biological systems at a relatively lower concentration, apparent molar volumes of three typical amino acids, glycine, l-alanine and l-serine in (DMSO + water) mixtures were determined and the transfer volumes from water to the mixtures were evaluated. Together with static light scattering measurement, the results were utilised to reveal the microscopic solvent structure of (DMSO + water) mixtures and its influence on the interaction between DMSO and amino acids from a clustering point of view. The results demonstrate that the interaction between amino acids and DMSO is greatly related to the clustering structure of the mixed solvent and that amino acids interacted with already established solvent clusters. The linear dependence of transfer volume of amino acids on DMSO concentration up to 2.0 mol ⋅ dm⁻³ could be attributed to the increasing interaction with (DMSO)₁(H₂O)_n clusters. The formation of (DMSO)_m(H₂O)_n cluster via hydrophobic aggregating at higher DMSO concentration led to a decrease in hydrophobic effect of DMSO and its hydrophobic–hydrophilic and hydrophobic–hydrophobic interaction with amino acids. The structure change of solvent and the interaction between amino acid residues and DMSO was reflected by the solvation of proteins. It was found that dependence of hydrodynamic radius of bovine serum albumin and lysozyme on DMSO concentration was the same and similar to that of static light scattered by the mixed solvent, regardless of the difference in conformational change between the two proteins.     

Nonideality in diffusion of ionic and neutral solutes and hydrogen bond dynamics in dimethyl sulfoxide-chloroform mixtures of varying composition

Molecular dynamics simulations of charged and neutral solutes in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO)-chloroform mixtures reveal pronounced nonideality in the solute diffusion with changes of composition of the mixtures. The diffusion coefficient of the anionic solute first decreases, passes through a minimum at DMSO mole fraction of about 0.50, and then increases to reach its value for pure DMSO. The diffusion coefficients of the cationic and neutral solutes are found to decrease with increase in DMSO content of the solvent mixture. The extent of nonideality in the diffusion and orientational relaxation of solvent molecules is found to be somewhat stronger than that in diffusion of the anionic solute in these mixtures. We have also calculated the relaxation of hydrogen bonds formed between DMSO and chloroform molecules. The lifetimes of DMSO-chloroform hydrogen bonds are found to increase monotonically with increase in DMSO concentration. The average number of hydrogen bonds and their average energies are also computed. It is found that an increase in DMSO concentration causes a decrease in the number of DMSO-chloroform hydrogen bonds per DMSO or chloroform molecules but increases the strength of these hydrogen bonds.

溶剂工程调控钙钛矿薄膜中PbI2和PbI2(DMSO)的形成

钙钛矿太阳能电池以其高效、低成本的特点备受关注。到目前为止,钙钛矿太阳能电池的最高光电转换效率已经超过25%,显示出良好的应用前景。钙钛矿薄膜的结晶性能是决定器件性能的关键,因此,调控钙钛矿薄膜的生长过程至关重要。本工作中,我们发现通过简单调节前驱体溶剂,即调节二甲基亚砜：1, 4-丁内酯: N, N-二甲基甲酰胺(DMSO : GBL : DMF)的三种混合溶剂的比例,可实现钙钛矿薄膜中PbI₂和PbI₂(DMSO)含量的调节,从而调节电池的器件性能。此外,本工作系统研究了PbI₂和PbI₂(DMSO)的含量对器件性能的影响。结果表明,PbI₂(DMSO)的形成会导致300–425 nm波长范围内电池的外量子效率(EQE)降低,从而导致器件性能下降。相反,通过在前驱体溶液中添加额外的碘化亚甲基铵(MAI),可以抑制PbI₂和PbI₂(DMSO)的形成。     

Preparation of poly (L‐lactic acid) with aligned structures by unidirectional freezing

Honeycomb monolith structured porous poly (L‐lactic acid, PLA) was simply fabricated by employing a unidirectional freeze‐casting technique. Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) was used as a solvent for PLA, and the solution was unidirectionally frozen. The DMSO was nucleated in the solution and was grown in the freezing direction. The PLA was solidified and structured with the DMSO crystal as a template. Then DMSO was leached by water, ethanol, or the mixture of them, and subsequently the porous PLA was dried by oven. It was found that the freeze‐casting protocol can significantly influence the morphological features such as the tube diameter and wall thickness of tube can be tuned by varying of PLA concentration, freezing temperature, and the nature of leaching solvent. Because DMSO has a special solubility of a number of polymers, this method may be a general way for designing and preparing aligned porous materials. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Self‐Assembly of a Chiral Lipid Gelator Controlled by Solvent and Speed of Gelation

Glutamine derivative 1 with two‐photon absorbing units has been synthesized and was found to show gelation ability in some solvents. Its self‐assembly in the gel phase could be controlled by the solvent and speed of gelation. For example, in DMSO the organogelator self‐assembled into H‐aggregates with weak exciton coupling between the aromatic moieties. On the other hand, in DMSO/diphenyl ether (1:9, v/v) the molecules formed 1D aggregates, but with strong exciton coupling due to the small distance between the chromophores. Moreover, the formation of these two kinds of aggregates could be adjusted by the ratio of DMSO to diphenyl ether. In DMSO/toluene, DMSO/butanol, DMSO/butyl acetate, and DMSO/acetic acid systems similar results were observed. Therefore, conversion of the packing model occurs irrespective of the nature of the solvent. Notably, a unique sign inversion in the CD spectra could be realized by controlling the speed of gelation in the DMSO/diphenyl ether (1:9, v/v) system. It was found that a low speed of gelation induces the gelator to adopt a packing model with strong π–π interactions between the aromatic units. Moreover, the gels, when excited at 800 nm, emit strong green fluorescence and the quantum chemical calculations suggest that intramolecular charge transfer leads to two‐photon absorption of the gelator molecule.

Inhibitory Effect of DMSO on Halohydrin Dehalogenase: Experimental and Computational Insights into the Influence of an Organic Co-solvent on the Structural and Catalytic Properties of a Biocatalyst

Although the application of organic solvents in biocatalysis is well explored, in-depth understanding of the interactions of solvent with proteins, in particular oligomeric ones, is still scant. Understanding these interactions is essential in tailoring enzymes for industrially relevant catalysis in nonaqueous media. In our study, the homotetrameric enzyme halohydrin dehalogenase (HHDH) from Agrobacterium radiobacter AD1 (HheC) was investigated, as a model system, in DMSO/water solvent mixtures. DMSO, the most commonly used co-solvent for biocatalytic transformations, was found to act as a mixed-type inhibitor with a prevalent competitive contribution. Even 5 % (v/v) DMSO inhibits the activity of HheC by half. Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations showed that DMSO keeps close to Ser-Tyr catalytic residues forming alternate H-bonds with them. Stability measurements paired with differential scanning calorimetry, dynamic light scattering methods and MD studies revealed that HheC maintains its structural integrity with as much as 30 % (v/v) DMSO.

New insights into the effect of molecular crowding environment induced by dimethyl sulfoxide on the conformation and stability of G-quadruplex

Various structures of G-quadruplex in biosystems play an important role in different diseases and are often regulated by a variety of molecular crowding environments induced by internal and even external factors (e.g., a solvent). Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), a universal solvent, has been widely used in biological studies and for drug therapy, but little is known regarding its effect on G-quadruplex structure and stability. Here, we report the influence of molecular crowding environment induced by DMSO on the conformation and stability of G-quadruplex structure. We show that the G-quadruplex-forming sequences such as human telomeric sequence, which may have diverse conformations in different environments, tend to convert their topologies to parallel structures under the molecular crowding stimulated by DMSO. Moreover, DMSO can increase the stability of the parallel and antiparallel topologies, especially the parallel G-quadruplex sequence c-kit, but not the hybrid topologies. Further analysis of c-kit using the CD and NMR technique, combined with the unique structural characteristics of c-kit, reveals that the crowding, dehydration and interaction of DMSO are conductive to the formation and stability of the parallel G-quadruplex. The present study suggests that, DMSO, a common solvent used in DNA experiments, may have a nonnegligible influence on the structure and stability of G-quadruplex.     

The enthalpies of formation of copper(II) complexes with nicotinamide in aqueous ethanol and DMSO

The enthalpies of complex formation between nicotinamide and copper(II) perchlorate in aqueous ethanol and dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) were determined calorimetrically. The maximum exothermic effect was observed in a solvent with ～0.1 mole fractions of DMSO. The exothermic effect of complex formation increased as the concentration of ethanol grew. The role played by solvation in the thermodynamic characteristics of monoligand complex formation was considered. The influence of solvent composition on Δ_r H ^o was largely related to the resolvation of the ligand donor atom.     

Photophysical properties of tyrosine and its simple derivatives in organic solvents studied by time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy and global analysis

Photophysical properties of tyrosine and its derivatives with free and blocked functional groups were studied by steady state and time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy and global analysis in organic solvents, such as methanol, 2-propanol, tetrahydrofuran (THF), and dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO). The mono-exponential fluorescence intensity decays were observed for all tyrosine derivatives in THF and DMSO solutions, whereas in alcohols some derivatives have bi-exponential decays. The rotamer population calculated from 1H nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy in DMSO does not correspond to the pre-exponential factors obtained from fluorescence spectroscopy. Moreover in the case of DMSO, the strong interaction of this solvent with the hydroxyl group of the fluorophore's phenol ring causes substantial changes in the fluorescence and nonradiative rate constants of tyrosine derivatives compared with those of tyrosine with a blocked hydroxyl group, Tyr(Me). The steady state and time-resolved fluorescence measurements in pure organic solvents and water-organic solvent mixtures indicate that the fluorescence quenching of the phenol chromophore of tyrosine by an acetyl or amide group or both depends on the polarity of the solvent used as well as the ability of the solvent to form hydrogen bonds with functional groups of tyrosine.
