Fibrous Networks with Incorporated Macrocycles: A Chiral Stimuli‐Responsive Supramolecular Supergelator and Its Application to Biocatalysis in Organic Media

A new and versatile, crown ether appended, chiral supergelator has been designed and synthesized based on the bis‐urea motif. The introduction of a stereogenic center improved its gelation ability significantly relative to its achiral analogue. This low‐molecular‐weight gelator forms supramolecular gels in a variety of organic solvents. It is sensitive to multiple chemical stimuli and the sol–gel phase transitions can be reversibly triggered by host–guest interactions. The gel can be used to trap enzymes and release them on demand by chemical stimuli. It stabilizes the microparticles in Pickering emulsions so that enzyme‐catalyzed organic reactions can take place in the polar phase inside the microparticles, the organic reactants diffusing through the biphasic interface from the surrounding organic phase. Because of the higher interface area between the organic and polar phases, enzyme activity is enhanced in comparison with simple biphasic systems.     

Light intensity and image visualization of GDI injector sprays according to nozzle hole arrangements

The light intensity measurement and image visualization of multi-hole injection spray due to different hole arrangements and hole numbers were investigated. The light intensities and behavior characteristics of the GDI spray were analyzed through the axial and diagonal spray penetration, cone angle, and spray area from the spray images by using the image visualization system and image analysis system. The atomization performance of GDI injectors was analyzed by the local and overall Sauter mean diameter (SMD) measurement.     

Enhanced reactivity and enantioselectivity in catalytic glyoxylate-ene reactions using chiral bis(oxazoline)–copper complex in an ionic liquid

An optimal hydrophobic ionic liquid was discovered as a solvent for highly enantioselective glyoxylate-ene reactions catalyzed by a chiral bis(oxazoline)–copper complex. The reactivity and stereoselectivity were highly dependent upon the property of the ionic liquids; reactions between olefins and ethyl glyoxylate in [Bmim]SbF₆ at ambient temperature provided remarkably enhanced reactivity and stereoselectivity, which greatly exceed those of the corresponding reactions in dichloromethane. Furthermore, the metal–ligand complex was readily recycled up to eight times while exhibiting no significant decrease in reaction efficiency.     

Enhanced efficiency of recyclable C3-symmetric cinchonine-squaramides in the asymmetric Friedel–Crafts reaction of indoles with alkyl trifluoropyruvate

The highly enantioselective Friedel–Crafts reaction of indoles with trifluoropyruvate catalyzed by a C₃-symmetric cinchonine-squaramide is reported. A wide variety of trifluoromethylated indole derivatives were obtained in high yields and with excellent enantioselectivities (99% and up to >99% ee). Moreover the C₃ catalyst can be easily recovered and was used five times.     

Profiling and identification of the absorbed constituents and metabolites of schisandra lignans by ultra‐performance liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry

Schisandra chinensis Baill grows wild in Russia, China, Korea and Japan, and its fruit has been found to be effective in amnesia and insomnia. It is enriched in schisandra lignans (SL) that are major components responsible for therapeutic action. However, there are no reports on the biotransformation analysis of SL. An ultra‐performance liquid chromatography/electrospray‐ionization high‐definition mass spectrometry (UPLC‐Q‐TOF‐HDMS) method was developed to investigate the metabolism of SL in vivo. MS was performed on a Waters Micromass high‐definition system with an electrospray ionization source in positive ion mode and automated MetaboLynx software analysis with excellent MS accuracy and enhanced MS data acquisition. An improved mass defect filter (MDF) method employing both drug and core structure filter templates was applied to the processing of UPLC‐Q‐TOF‐HDMS data for the detection and structural characterization of metabolites. In this study, 30 metabolites were detected and identified in vivo, and demethylation and hydroxylation were confirmed as the primacy metabolic pathway for SL in rat plasma. In conclusion, the presently developed methodology was suitable for biotransformation research of SL and will find wide use in metabolic studies for other herbal medicines.
