Synthese de derives de la tobrosamine par addition d'acide hydrazoique sur un systeme enonique dans la serie hydrate de carbone

Derivatives of a new diaminotrideoxy-d-ribo-hexopyranose, a component of the antibiotic tobramycin, have been prepared by addition of the elements of hydrazoic acid to the α, β-unsaturated ketone 8. After 5 min only the kinetically favored product 13 was observed, which is gradually transformed into the thermodynamically more-stable substance 20. The equilibrium mixture after 5 hours contained d-erythro and d-threo isomers 20 and 13 in the ratio 6:4 The d-erythro azide 20 was converted into the derivatives of di-N-acetyl tobrosamine.

Na5AlF2(PO4)2: Darstellung,Kristallstruktur und Ionenleitfähigkeit

Na₅AlF₂(PO₄)₂: Synthesis, Crystal Structure and Ionic Conductivity Two different procedures (precipitation from aqueous solution and solid state reaction) for the synthesis of hitherto unknown Na₅AlF₂(PO₄)₂ were optimized. The crystal structure was determined using diffractometer data (P3 , a = b = 10.483(1), c = 6.607(1) Å, MoKα, 1080 independent reflections, R_w = 0.025). PO₄-tetrahedra and AlO₄F₂-“octahedra” are connected via common vertices forming a twodimensionally extended heteropolyanion. Sodium is located in interconnected spacings of the [AlF₂(PO₄)₂]-part of the structure. Ionic conductivity as expected because of these structural features was affirmed experimentally.     

Asymmetric or symmetric bilayer formation during oblique drop impact depends on rheological properties of saturated and unsaturated lipid monolayers

Bilayer structures are formed by approaching two liquid surfaces with phospholipid monolayers, which are brought into contact by oblique drop impact on a liquid surface. Asymmetric bilayers can be produced by the coupling of drop and target monolayers. In contrast, symmetric bilayers or multilayers are formed by collapse of the compressed target monolayer. We show that under all studied conditions bilayer/multilayer synthesis takes place. The experimental conditions for the synthesis of asymmetric or symmetric bilayers are described quantitatively in terms of the surface rheological (surface elasticity and dilational viscosity) and the hydrodynamical parameters (Weber number and impact angle). The composition and mechanical properties of the phospholipid monolayers strongly influences the patterns of drop impact and the bilayer/multilayer formation. Cholesterol stiffens unsaturated phospholipid monolayers and fluidifies saturated monolayers. All monolayers form asymmetric vesicle-like structures, which are stable in the aqueous medium. Additionally, unsaturated phospholipid monolayers without cholesterol form symmetric vesicles by folding parts of the target monolayer. Sufficient presence of cholesterol in unsaturated phospholipid monolayers inhibits the folding of the target monolayer and the subsequent formation of symmetric bilayers. The rheological properties of saturated and unsaturated phospholipid monolayers and their mixtures with cholesterol are discussed. Based on drop impact results it is shown that the state of a so far undefined region in the DPPC/cholesterol phase diagram is a fluid phase.     

Quantitative detection of C-deuterated drugs by CARS microscopy and Raman microspectroscopy

The introduction of carbon-deuterium (C-D) bonds into drug compounds by organic synthesis is a non-invasive labelling approach, which does not alter the chemical and physiological properties of the drug itself. C-deuterated drugs exhibit characteristic vibrational signatures in the C-D stretching region around 2100-2300 cm(-1), which avoids spectral interference with contributions from a complex biological environment. In this paper, the quantitative detection of C-deuterated drugs by Raman microspectroscopy and single-band CARS microscopy is examined. Concentration-dependent studies on drugs with aliphatic and aromatic C-D moieties were performed in a two-channel microfluidic chip, using the corresponding non-deuterated (C-H) isotopologues as an internal reference.     

Mechanistic studies of the phosphine-catalyzed homodimerization of ketoketenes

The mechanism of PBu₃-catalyzed homodimerization of ketoketenes has been explored and compared with that of the previously reported trialkylphosphite-mediated reactions. NMR studies of the PBu₃-catalyzed reaction implicated the involvement of tetravalent phosphonium intermediates. Phosphonium intermediates in the catalytic cycle were trapped through reaction with trimethylsilyl chloride and 4-chlorobenzaldehyde, and the resulting products were characterized. A method for the stoichiometric generation of phosphonium enolates was developed as a result of these studies. No evidence was obtained for the involvement of pentacovalent phosphorane intermediates in trialkylphosphine-catalyzed ketoketene homodimerization reactions, in contrast with the mechanism of the trialkylphosphite-mediated homodimerization of dimethylketene. An X-ray crystal structure analysis of methylphenylketene dimer showed that it possesses Z-geometry about the exocyclic olefin.
