A general method is presented for the identification of radiometabolites in plasma of human and monkey subjects after administration of positron emission tomography (PET) radioligands. The radiometabolites are first produced in vitro, using liver microsomes, subsequently separated using fast radio-liquid chromatography (radio-LC), and individually collected and identified by ultra high-performance liquid chromatography/quadrupole-time of flight-mass spectrometry in MS and MSE mode. Fast radio-LC provided superior resolution compared to conventional radio-LC, resulting in separation of a greater number of metabolites. The radiometabolites produced in vivo are then compared to and identified based on the in vitro results. This approach was applied to three PET radioligands, [11C]flumazenil, [18F]FE-PE2I, and [11C]PBR28, resulting in the identification of five, two, and one radiometabolites, respectively. This procedure can easily be adopted to identify the radiometabolites produced in vivo from a variety of PET radioligands. 相似文献
Sesquifulvalene (1) is a substance of considerable theoretical interest1 which is expected to have a significant contribution to its structure from the dipolar resonance form 1b,2 and hence an exceptionally low bond order for the central double bond. Although a wide variety of annelated and otherwise substituted sesquifulvalenes have been prepared and characterized,3 the parent substance has proved remarkably elusive. Very recently, a preparation of 1 in crystalline form has been reported, based upon elimination of an acetoxy-11,12-dihydrosesquifulvalene derivative.4相似文献
Microdevices designed for practical environmental pollution monitoring need to detect specific pollutants such as dioxins. Bisphenol A (BPA) has been widely used as a monomer for the synthesis of polycarbonate and epoxy resins. However, the recent discovery of its high potential ability to disrupt human endocrine systems has made the development of smart systems and microdevices for its detection and removal necessary. Molecule‐responsive microsized hydrogels with β‐cycrodextrin (β‐CD) as ligands are prepared by photopolymerization using a fluorescence microscope. The molecule‐responsive micro‐hydrogels show ultra‐quick shrinkage in response to target BPA. Furthermore, the flow rate of a microchannel is autonomously regulated by the molecule‐responsive shrinking of their hydrogels as smart microvalves.
The first neo‐confused hexaphyrin(1.1.1.1.1.0) was synthesized by oxidative ring closure of a hexapyrrane bearing two terminal “confused” pyrroles. The new compound displays a folded conformation with a short interpyrrolic C???N distance of 3.102 Å, and thus it readily underwent ring fusion to afford a neo‐fused hexaphyrin with an unprecedented 5,5,5,7‐tetracyclic ring structure. Furthermore, coordination of CuII triggered a ring opening/contracting reaction to afford a CuII complex of an N‐linked pentaphyrin derivative. The roles of reactive N? C bonds in the porphyrinoid macrocycles were demonstrated. 相似文献
An N-confused phlorin isomer bearing a dipyrrin moiety at the α-position of the confused pyrrole ring ( 1 ) was synthesized. PdII and BIII coordination at the peripheral prodigiosin-like moiety of 1 afforded the corresponding complexes 2 and 3 . Reflux of 2 in triethylamine (TEA) converted the meso-phenyl into the PdII-coordinating phenoxy group to afford 4 . Under the same reaction conditions, TEA was linked to the α-position of the dipyrrin unit in 3 as an N,N-diethylaminovinyl group to afford 5 . Furthermore, peripheral coordination of BIII in 3 and 5 improved the planarity of the phlorin macrocycle and thus facilitated the coordination of AgIII at the inner cavity to afford 3-Ag and 5-Ag , respectively. These results provide an effective approach for developing unique porphyrinoids through peripheral coordination. 相似文献
Synthesis and deprotonation reactions of half‐sandwich iridium complexes bearing a vicinal dioxime ligand were studied. Treatment of [{Cp*IrCl(μ‐Cl)}2] (Cp*=η5‐C5Me5) with dimethylglyoxime (LH2) at an Ir:LH2 ratio of 1:1 afforded the cationic dioxime iridium complex [Cp*IrCl(LH2)]Cl ( 1 ). The chlorido complex 1 undergoes stepwise and reversible deprotonation with potassium carbonate to give the oxime–oximato complex [Cp*IrCl(LH)] ( 2 ) and the anionic dioximato(2?) complex K[Cp*IrCl(L)] ( 3 ) sequentially. Meanwhile, twofold deprotonation of the sulfato complex [Cp*Ir(SO4)(LH2)] ( 4 ) resulted in the formation of the oximato‐bridged dinuclear complex [{Cp*Ir(μ‐L)}2] ( 5 ). X‐ray analyses disclosed their supramolecular structures with one‐dimensional infinite chain ( 1 and 2 ), hexagonal open channels ( 3 ), and a tetrameric rhomboid ( 4 ) featuring multiple intermolecular hydrogen bonds and electrostatic interactions. 相似文献
Ceria plays an important role in catalysis, due to its ability to store and release oxygen depending on the condition present in the catalyst environment. To analyze the role of ceria in catalytic reactions, it is necessary to know the details of the interaction of ceria surface with environmentally sensitive molecules. This study was conducted using ultra accelerated quantum chemical molecular dynamics. Its purpose was to investigate the reduction process of the (1 1 1) and (1 1 0) surfaces of ceria with atomic hydrogen as well as water desorption mechanisms from the surfaces. This simulation demonstrated that when a high-energy colliding hydrogen atoms are adsorbed on the ceria, it pulls up an O atom from the ceria surfaces and results in the formation of a H2O molecule. This is the first dynamics simulation related to such reduction processes based on quantum chemistry. 相似文献
