A novel approach to the synthesis of 6-amino-7-hydroxy-flavone

A novel approach to the synthesis of 6-amino-7-hydroxyflavone (1) is described. Reaction in acetone of 2',4'-dihydroxy-5'-nitroacetophenone and benzoyl chloride in the presence of potassium carbonate affords 3-benzoyl-7-hydroxy-6-nitroflavone, which is cleaved in 5% ethanolic potassium hydroxide to give 1-(2,4-dihydroxy-5-nitrophenyl)-3- phenyl-1,3-propanedione. The 1,3-diketone thus formed is then transformed into 7-hydroxy- 6-nitroflavone, followed by reduction to afford the title compound.     

一个新的噻二唑衍生物H2ADTZ与锰的二维聚合物的合成与晶体结构(英)

A new 1,3,4 thiadiazole-derivative ligand 2,5-(s-acetic acid) dimercapto-1,3,4 thiadiazole (H₂ADTZ) and its one-dimensional manganese polymer Mn(ADTZ)·4H₂O had been synthesized and structurally characterized by X-ray single crystal diffraction in this paper. The Mn(Ⅱ) ion is coordinated with a distorted octahedron by two oxygen atoms from neighboring two deprotonated ligands ADTZ^2- and other four oxygen atoms from four coordinated water molecules. The structural feature of the title compound is the formation of one-dimensional manganese chains polymer through the bridging of dioxygen O-O units. In the solid state structure of the complex, one-dimensional manganese chains are joined together by the weak intermolecular hydrogen bonds and vander Waals interactions forming a two-dimensional supramolecular compound. Furthermore, the UV spectra and electro-chemical properties of the title compound were also investigated. CCDC: 260532.     

Direct electrochemistry of hemoglobin on graphene/Fe3O4 nanocomposite-modified glass carbon electrode and its sensitive detection for hydrogen peroxide

Graphene/Fe₃O₄ nanocomposite was prepared for the immobilization of hemoglobin (Hb) to improve the electron transfer between Hb and glass carbon electrode (GCE). The characterization of nanocomposites was described by transmission electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared, Raman spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, respectively. The electrochemistry of Hb on the graphene/Fe₃O₄-based GCE was investigated by cyclic voltammetry and amperometric measurement. The modified electrode showed a wide linear range from 0.25 μmol/L to 1.7 mmol/L with a correlation coefficient of 0.9967. The detection limit of the H₂O₂ biosensor was estimated at 6.0?×?10^?6?mol/L at a signal-to-noise ratio of 3.     

Solvothermal synthesis of nanoscaled LiFePO4 with thinner thickness along [010] direction

Single-phased nanosized LiFePO₄ with thinner thickness along [010] crystallographic direction were successfully fabricated under solvothermal condition by using glycerol as co-solvent. The as-obtained product with thinner thickness is beneficial for fast migration of Li ions in the olivine-structured LiFePO₄, hence exhibiting excellent electrochemical performance.     

A study on postsplenectomy changes of serum tuftsin level using a radioimmunoassay protocol

In this article, postsplenectomy changes of serum tuftsin level were studied on both human subjects and rabbits by using a self-established radioimmunoassay protocol. Antituftsin antibodies were raised in rabbits and roosters.¹²⁵I-tuftsin was prepared through an Iodogen method. The characteristics of the RIA were satisfactory with a detecting range of 0.5–100 ug/ml and the lowest detection limit of 400ng/ml. Serum tuftsin levels of splenectomized subjects were measured and compared with control groups. The serum tuftsin level from 30 postsplenectomy human beings was 406±179 ng/ml ( ± s) while that from a control group of 40 healthy blood donors was 557±256 ng/ml; the serum tuftsin level of 10 postsplenectomy rabbits was found to be 206±75 ng/ml while that of a control group of 10 normal rabbits was 318±96 ng/ml. The results showed that serum tuftsin level decreased markedly after splenectomy.     

Adsorptive stripping voltammetric determination of traces of molybdenum in natural water in the presence ofα-benzoinoxime

The electrochemical behavior of the molybdenum complex of -benzoinoxime was investigated using cyclic voltammetry and linear scan voltammetry, after adsorptive accumulation of the complex onto a hanging mercury drop electrode (HMDE). The signal corresponds to the reduction of molybdenum in the complex adsorbed at the HMDE surface. Under optimal conditions, the adsorptive stripping voltammetric procedure gave an extremely low detection limit of 0.1 nM (9.6ng/l) Mo(VI) following stirred accumulation for 5 min at 0.0 V (vs. Ag/AgCl). The reduction cur rent-[Mo(VI)] relationships were linear up to 25 and 100 nM. Repetitive determinations of 10 nM solutions gave relative standard deviations of 2.2 and 3.5%, for 1 and 5-min accumulation periods, respectively. Most of the ions investigated did not interfere with the determination of molybdenum, except for tungsten. Excellent selectivity against copper was observed. The proposed procedure was applied to the direct determination of molybdenum in natural water.     

Determination of trace amounts of iron by catalytic-adsorptive stripping voltammetry

A highly sensitive and selective voltammetric procedure is described for the determination of trace amounts of iron. The procedure is based on the adsorptive collection of an iron-thiocyanate-nitric oxide complex on a hanging mercury drop electrode. The adsorbed complex catalyzes the reduction of nitrite in solution, which gives a detection limit of 40 ppt iron (30 s accumulation). The stripping current increases linearly with iron concentration up to 80 ppb. The relative standard deviations are 4.2% and 1.6% at 0.5 ppb and 40 ppb respectively. Most of the common ions, except cobalt, do not interfere with the determination of iron. The procedure is applied to determine iron in biological samples, natural waters and analytical-grade chemicals.     

Star-PDMAEMA-β-CD-Stabilized Colloidal Gold Nanoparticles: Synthesis,Characterization and pH-Controlled Assembly

Colloidal gold nanoparticles were prepared through in situ reduction in the presence of water-soluble star homopolymer with β-cyclodextrin core and poly[2-(dimethylamino) ethyl methacrylate] arms (star PDMAEMA-β-CD) at ambient temperature. In this process, star PDMAEMA-β-CD acted as both reducing agent and stabilizing agent for gold nanoparticles. More importantly, the optical properties and the morphology of star-PDMAEMA-β-CD-stabilized colloidal gold nanoparticles were sensitive to the solution pH due to structural changes of the polymer. Different assemblies can be formed by tuning the pH of the medium. Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), UV-Vis absorption spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), dynamic laser light scattering (DLS) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) were used to characterize the synthetic gold nanoparticles and the pH-controlled assembly of gold nanoparticles.

Two new ent‐kaurane diterpenes, wedelidins A ( 8 ) and B ( 9 ), together with eighteen other constituents, including the sesquiterpenoids 1 and 2 , ent‐kaurane diterpenes 3 – 7 , triterpenoids 10 and 11 , steroids 12 – 14 , and flavonoids 15 – 17 as well as benzene derivatives 18 – 20 , were isolated from the aerial parts of Wedelia trilobata. The structures of wedelidins A ( 8 ) and B ( 9 ) were elucidated by extensive spectroscopic analyses (including UV, IR, NMR, and MS). Furthermore, the structures of compounds 2 and 3 were confirmed by X‐ray single‐crystal diffraction analyses.
