Synthesis of Calix[4]arene Derivatives with NLO Properties

The new chromophore compounds with NLO properties were prepared by Knoevenagel condensation from forrnyl or diformyl calix[4/arene and isophorone derivatives in the presence of piperidine and acetic acid, respectively. In these chromophore calix[4]arenes, the ring locked trienes were employed as the conjugation bridge and electron acceptor in D-π-A units. The NMR spectra demonstrated that they existed in a cone conformation and consequently non-conjugated D-π-A units could be oriented at nearly the same direction.

Organolithium-mediated diversification of peptide thiazoles

[Reaction: see text] We report a one-step, racemization-free method for the diversification of peptide thiazoles via direct lithiation of the thiazole ring. The method is compatible with N-Boc, N-trityl, carboxylic ester, and carboxamide protecting groups and has been used to directly functionalize the thiazole ring of cyclopeptide natural products.     

Improving the quality of 3D-QSAR by using flexible-ligand receptor models

To address the problems associated with molecular conformations and alignments in the 3D-QSAR studies, we have developed the Flexible Ligand - Atomic Receptor Model (FLARM) 2.0 method. The FLARM 2.0 method has three unique features as compared to other pseudoreceptor model methods: (1) the training ligands are flexibly optimized inside the receptors to achieve minimal docking energies; (2) the receptor atoms are spatially moveable in the process of genetic evolving in order to avoid improper initial receptor shapes; and (3) void receptor sites are specially favored in order to obtain open receptor models that allow large gaps. Advantages of an open model include less noise information, a smaller risk of overfitting, and ease of locating the key interaction sites. The latter two features, inherited from the previous FLARM 1.0 method, can improve the predictive ability of the 3D-QSAR models, while the first feature is newly implemented to relieve the uncertainty caused by improper conformation and alignment. Three FLARM 2.0 case studies were performed, and the results show that FLARM 2.0 models are highly predictive and robust. FLARM 2.0 pseudoreceptor models can correspond well with the pharmacophore models and/or the binding sites of the real protein receptors.     

酸碱软硬度的电势原子势标度

软硬酸碱原则在化学的各个领域都得到了广泛的应用。在其定量化标度方面也做了不少工作,例如Yingst等的酸度量|α/β|,Klopman的E_n~≠和E_m~≠值,parr和pearson的绝对硬度以及Yatsimirski的ΔA_(FH)等。但是,他们的工作在理论性和应用上都无法统一起来。本文提出一种具有广泛应用性的酸碱软硬度的键参数标度。Mulliken在研究一类弱lewis加合物的光谱时,首先用量子力学原理阐述了lewis

Study of Langmuir and Langmuir-Blodgett films of odorant-binding protein/amphiphile for odorant biosensors

To make ultrathin films for the fabrication of artificial olfactory systems, odorant biosensors, we have investigated mixed Langmuir and Langmuir-Blodgett films of odorant-binding protein/amphiphile. Under optimized experimental conditions (phosphate buffer solution, pH 7.5, OBP-1F concentration of 4 mg L(-1), target pressure 35 mN m(-1)), the mixed monolayer at the air/water interface is very stable and has been efficiently transferred onto gold supports, which were previously functionalized by self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) with 1-octadecanethiol (ODT). Atomic force microscopy and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy were used to characterize mixed Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) films before and after contact with a specific odorant molecule, isoamyl acetate. AFM phase images show a higher contrast after contact with the odorant molecule due to the new structure of the OBP-1F/ODA LB film. Non-Faradaic electrochemical spectroscopy (EIS) is used to quantify the effect of the odorant based on the electrical properties of the OBP-1F/ODA LB film, as its resistance strongly decreases from 1.18 MOmega (before contact) to 25 kOmega (after contact).     

硼离子对铕掺杂SiO2干凝胶发光性能的影响

采用溶胶-凝胶法制备了Al单掺和B，Al共掺的Eu掺杂SiO2干凝胶。利用荧光光谱、IR，XRD，DSC，TG／DTG等技术研究了硼离子、退火温度对样品发光性质的影响。经500℃以上退火处理用248nm激发的样品，产生Eu^3＋离子^5D0→^7FJ的特征发射，^5D0→^7F1的跃迁分裂为两个峰。比较615nm处的发光强度，掺硼酸样品的发光强度是不加硼酸发光强度的3．3倍。这是因为B离子的加入，在材料中形成了Si—O—B键，破坏了网络的对称性，加强了Eu^3＋的红光发射。当退火温度上升到850℃用350nm激发时，样品有很强的Eu^2＋蓝光发射。Al单掺的发射中心在437nm处，发射半峰宽约为70nm，而B，Al共掺样品的发光中心蓝移到425nm处，单掺样品的蓝光强度几乎是共掺样品强度的2倍。这是由于硼酸的加入改变了基质的网络结构，从而导致单掺和共掺样品发射峰位和强度的改变。
