The common left-half [C31-C33(OC1-C7)-C40] part of pectenotoxins has been synthesized convergently from the C31-C35, C36-C40, and C1-C7 parts. The C31-C35 part, prepared via a new route shorter than our previous route, was coupled with the C36-C40 part through reductive lithiation and addition reactions to give an adduct stereoselectively, which was converted to a cyclic acetal corresponding to the C31-C40 part. The left-half was synthesized by a three-step process including esterification of the C31-C40 part with the C1-C7 part. 相似文献
A new pyrrolidinoindoline-type alkaloid, CPC-1, and a new tryptamine-derived dimeric alkaloid, CPC-2, were isolated from the seeds and rinds of Chimonanthus praecox f. concolor. The structure including the absolute configuration of CPC-1 was determined by chiral total synthesis. CPC-2 has a unique hexahydropyrroloquinoline skeleton. 相似文献
All- trans β-carotene-5,6-epoxide has been found in the thylakoid membranes of spinach and of the cyanobacterium Synechococcus vulcanus Copeland. The epoxide was extracted from the thylakoid membranes with acetone, and was isolated by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The structure of the epoxide was identified by means of mass, Raman, and electronic absorption spectroscopy. Changes in the amount of the epoxide, as a result of epoxidation and (apparent) de-epoxidation reactions in the membranes, were traced by analysis of extracts on HPLC. In isolated thylakoid membranes, only the epoxidation reaction took place. The reaction was caused by irradiation or by the addition of ferricyanide, suggesting that electron transport reactions in the membranes are involved in the epoxidation. In intact spinach leaves, however, both epoxidation and de-epoxidation took place; the extent of epoxidation correlated with the intensity of light incident on the leaves. The epoxidation and de-epoxidation of all- trans β-carotene are contrasted with those of xanthophylls (in the violaxanthin cycle). 相似文献
ESR studies of ultraviolet-irradiated polyethylene (PE) were carried out. Irradiation effects different from those of high-energy radiation are observed. Ultraviolet radiation is absorbed selectively, and especially in carbonyl groups in PE produced by oxidation. Radicals produced were identified as \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$ \hbox{---} {\rm CH}_2 \hbox{---} {\dot {\rm C}} {\rm H} \hbox{---}{\rm CHO}$\end{document} and \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$ \hbox{---} {\rm CH}_2 \hbox{---} {\dot {\rm C}} {\rm H} \hbox{---}{\rm CH}_2 \hbox{---}$\end{document}. Some radicals giving a quintet signal stable at room temperature were also observed but remained unidentified. The radical \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$ \hbox{---} {\rm CH}_2 \hbox{---} {\dot {\rm C}} {\rm H} \hbox{---}{\rm CHO}$\end{document} undergoes a mutual conversion with the acyl radical: 相似文献
A simple and highly sensitive method called thermal desorption (TD)-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), which is used for the determination of trace amounts of 4-nonylphenol (NP) and 4-tert.-octylphenol (OP) in water samples, is described. NP and OP in samples are extracted from water samples and concentrated by the stir bar sorptive extraction (SBSE) technique. A stir bar coated with polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) is added to a 2.0 ml water sample and stirring is carried out for 60 min at room temperature (25 °C) in a headspace vial. Then the extract is high sensitively analyzed by TD-GC-MS without any derivatization step. The optimum SBSE conditions are realized at an extraction time of 60 min. The detection limits are 0.02 ng ml−1 for NP and 0.002 ng ml−1 for OP. The method shows good linearity over the concentration range of 0.1-10 ng ml−1 for NP and 0.01-10 ng ml−1 for OP, and the correlation coefficients are higher than 0.999. The average recoveries of NP and OP are higher than 97% (R.S.D.: 3.6-6.2%) with correction using the added surrogate standards, 4-(1-methyl) octylphenol-d5 and deuterium 4-tert.-octylphenol. This simple, accurate, sensitive and selective analytical method may be used in the determination of trace amounts of NP and OP in tap and river water samples. 相似文献
Abstract Synthesis, redox properties, and electronic spectra of the sterically crowded triarylphosphines conjugated with π-electron systems, especially electron acceptors such as carbonyl group, are briefly reviewed. The sterically crowded triarylphosphines conjugated with various π-electron systems were synthesized from the common synthetic intermediate, (bromoaryl)phosphine, by conventional manner. The sterically crowded triarylphosphines conjugated with the electron acceptors exhibit visible absorption and fluorescence with large Stokes shift. Large solvent effect, redshift in polar solvent, and good correlation with the difference of the oxidation potential of the phosphine moiety and the reduction potential of the acceptor moiety suggest polar excited state resulting from HOMO-LUMO transition. 相似文献
Seven new indole alkaloids (aspidofractinine type 1–3, kopsine type 5, strychnos type 6, and vincamine type 7, 8) were isolated from Kopsia jasminiflora (Apocynaceae) collected in Thailand. 5-Oxokopsinic acid (4) was isolated from nature for the first time. The structures of the new alkaloids were determined by spectroscopic analyses and chemical transformation of a known alkaloid. 5,6-Secokopsinine (1) possesses a dialdehyde function that is formed by oxidative cleavage of the C-5–C-6 bond of kopsinine (9). New vincamine-type alkaloid 8 showed potent inhibitory activity toward human cancer cell lines (A549, HT29, HCT116). 相似文献
We introduce a simple spray drying method for the scaleup production of spherical organic (lignin) particles with sizes between 0.85 and 1.57 µm. We assess the surface energy of the lignin particles by inverse gas chromatography to reveal their role in composites synthesized with unsaturated polyester. Such nanocomposites are shown to be transparent to electromagnetic irradiation (millimeter wave bands). The permittivity and tanδ of the composite material reached values 3.01 and 0.01 at 28 GHz with 10% lignin content. Vinyl groups were introduced on the surface of the particles to achieve enhanced interfacial adhesion, and resulted in a reduced relative permittivity (2.75). Together with wave interactions, the mechanical and thermal properties of the composites are put in perspective, opening new opportunities in the development of bio-based devices for 5G high-speed communication.
