A Novel Fluorescent Aminoacid Designed for Fluorometric Detection of Cu （Ⅱ）

A fluorescent aminoacid was designed for selective and sensitive detection of Cu(II) in aqueous solution. The designing of this Cu(II) fluorescent chemosensing molecule, N ± (1‐naphthyl). aminoacetic acid (NAA), was based on the binding of Cu(II) to aminoacetic acid and the novel charge transfer photophysics of 1‐aminonaphthalenes. The fluorescence of NAA was found quenched by Cu (II) and several other metal ions of similar electronic structure such as Co(II), Ni(II) and Zn(II). The quenching was shown to occur via electron transfer within the metal‐NAA complex, which required an optimal combination of high binding affinity and favorable redox properties of the components in the metal‐NAA complex and hence afforded selective fluorometric detection of Cu(II). The calibration graph obeyed Stern‐Volmer theory and was shown for Cu(II) over the range of 0–2.75 ± 10–⁴ mol/L. The quenching constant of Cu(II) was measured as 8.0 ± 10³ mol/L that was two orders of magnitude higher than those of Co(II), Ni(II) and Zn(II). The 3SD limit of detection for Cu(II) was 8.00 ± 10^?6 mol/L with a coefficient of variation of 1.65%. Linear range for quantitative detection of Cu(II) was 2.67 ± 10^?5‐2.75 ± 10^?4 mol/L. The method was applied to synthetic sample measurements which gave recoveries of 105%‐112%.     

A zwitterion of 1,5‐bis­(2‐hydroxy­benzamido)‐3‐aza­pentane: a two‐dimensional hydrogen‐bonding network involving dimers

The title compound, 2‐{N‐[2‐(2‐hydroxy­benzamido)ethyl­ammonio­ethyl]amino­carbon­yl}phenolate, C₁₈H₂₁N₃O₄, crystallizes in a zwitterionic form as a result of inter­molecular proton transfer and possesses a negatively charged phenolate group and a protonated amino group. The 2‐hydroxy­benzamide and 2‐(amino­carbonyl)­phenolate moieties attached to the two ends of the C—C—N—C—C backbone adopt a cis conformation in relation to this backbone. All N‐ and O‐bound H atoms are involved in hydrogen‐bond formation; the zwitterions are first linked into head‐to‐tail dimers, which are further organized into a two‐dimensional network parallel to the crystallographic bc plane.     

Folding, conformational changes, and dynamics of cytochromes C probed by NMR spectroscopy

NMR spectroscopy has become a vital tool for studies of protein conformational changes and dynamics. Oxidized Fe(III)cytochromes c are a particularly attractive target for NMR analysis because their paramagnetism (S = (1)/(2)) leads to high (1)H chemical shift dispersion, even for unfolded or otherwise disordered states. In addition, analysis of shifts induced by the hyperfine interaction reveals details of the structure of the heme and its ligands for native and nonnative protein conformational states. The use of NMR spectroscopy to investigate the folding and dynamics of paramagnetic cytochromes c is reviewed here. Studies of nonnative conformations formed by denaturation and by anomalous in vivo maturation (heme attachment) are facilitated by the paramagnetic, low-spin nature of native and nonnative forms of cytochromes c. Investigation of the dynamics of folded cytochromes c also are aided by their paramagnetism. As an example of this analysis, the expression in Escherichia coli of cytochrome c(552) from Nitrosomonas europaea is reported here, along with analysis of its unusual heme hyperfine shifts. The results are suggestive of heme axial methionine fluxion in N. europaea ferricytochrome c(552). The application of NMR spectroscopy to investigate paramagnetic cytochrome c folding and dynamics has advanced our understanding of the structure and dynamics of both native and nonnative states of heme proteins.     

16-脱氢孕烯醇酮醋酸酯的环境友好合成法

Instead of environmentally toxic chromium oxidant, singlet oxygen generated photcchemically was used as environmentally friendly and benign oxidizing agent to accomplish the transformation of pseudodiosgenin diacetate to diosone efficiently in a low toxic and less expensive solvent acetone. Accordingly 16-dehydropregnenolone acetate(16-DPA), an important intermediate for preparation of steroidal drugs, was prepared in good yield (75%) when photoreaction was run in acetone/acetic anhydride/pyridine system. The mild reaction condition as well as simple and environmentally friendly process made the method commercially viable and important for production of 16-DPA in industrial scale.

Lanthanum heterocyclic Schiff-base complex initiated ring-opening polymerization of ε-caprolactone

Lanthanum complex supported by the heterocyclic Schiff-base ligand of N-(2-pyridyl)-3,5-di-tert-butyl-salicylaldimine was prepared and employed for the ring-opening polymerization(ROP)ofε-caprolactone(ε-CL).The polymers obtained with this initiator showed a unimodal molecular weight distribution implied that only one active species was present.Mechanism study revealed that the polymerization proceeds via acyl-oxygen bond cleavage.     

Synthesis, structure, and transformation of novel osmium azine and ylide complexes

Three novel triosmium complexes with unusual coordination characteristics are reported. Treatment of the hydridotriosmium cluster (mu-H)2Os3(CO)10 with CNNPPh3 in CH2Cl2 gave complexes (mu-H)Os3(CO)(10)(mu2-eta2-C(H)NNPPh3) (1) and (mu-H)Os3(CO)10(mu2-eta1-CHPPh3) (2). Complex 1 represents the first example of the existence of a coordinated phosphinazine ligand. An in-situ 1H NMR study showed that the reaction of (mu-H)2Os3(CO)10 with CNNPPh3 produced complex 1 as the initial product in 100% conversion. The latter is not stable in solution and slowly eliminates nitrogen to form an unusual ylide complex 2 in quantitative yield. The thermolysis of 2 in refluxing toluene afforded (mu-H)3Os3(CO)9(mu3-eta1-CCO2CH2Ph) (3) as a colorless compound. Complexes 1-3 were characterized by spectroscopic methods and single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The interesting feature of structure 3 is the presence of a mu3-alkylidyne ligand where the symmetrically triply bridged CCO2CH2Ph fragment lies perpendicular to and above the triosmium triangle.
