4H-Pyrans (4H-Pys) and 1,4-dihydropyridines (1,4-DHPs) are important classes of heterocyclic scaffolds in medicinal chemistry. Herein, an indium(III)-catalyzed one-pot domino reaction for the synthesis of highly functionalized 4H-Pys, and a model of 1,4-DHP is reported. This alternative approach to the challenging Hantzsch 4-component reaction enables the synthesis of fused-tricyclic heterocycles, and the mechanistic studies underline the importance of an intercepted-Knoevenagel adduct to achieve higher chemoselectivity towards these types of unsymmetrical heterocycles. 相似文献
In this study, a tubular radon removal device and a movable one were prepared and investigated. The tubular radon removal device in an air conditioning return air system reduced the radon progeny by more than 84%. The radon progeny concentration reached equilibrium after 4 h when it was used only for a ventilation at the rate of 10 h−1. Radon progeny removal efficiency was above 95% for the movable radon removal device, when the ventilation rate was 17 h−1. The results showed that the radon removal devices can effectively remove the radon progeny in the air.
In this paper, the effect of pH, i.e. acid and alkali was investigated on thermal stability of ligno-cellulosic polymeric fibrous (jute) material. The jute fabric was subjected to treatment under different pH, namely 4.5, 7, 10, 12, i.e. in acidic, neutral and alkaline conditions followed by drying prior to any thermal and physical characterization. The improvement in the thermal stability of jute to flame was measured in terms of limiting oxygen index value, vertical flammability and temperature profile of burning zone. Likewise thermo-gravimetry, differential scanning calorimetry and cone calorimeter analysis were also used to elucidate the improvement in thermal stability of the treated fabric. The changes in heat release rate, mass loss rate, heat of combustion, smoke production, etc., in the untreated and treated sample were measured in detail in cone calorimeter. Only the alkali-treated jute fabric samples showed profound improvement in thermal stability.
Four new zinc (II) complexes [Zn (HL1H)Br2] (1), [Zn (HL1H)Cl2] (2), [Zn2(HL2)Br3] (3), and [Zn (HL2)Cl] (4) have been synthesized by adopting template synthetic strategy and utilizing two homologous Schiff base ligands (H2L1 = 4-bromo-2-{[2-(2-hydroxyethylamino)-ethylimino]-methyl}-6-methoxyphenol, H2L2 = 4-bromo-2-{[3-(2-hydroxyethylamino)propylimino]methyl}-6-methoxyphenol), differing in one -CH2- unit in the ligating backbone, by adopting template synthetic strategy. All the complexes have been characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis as well as by other routine physicochemical techniques. Ligand mediated structural variations have been observed and rationalized by density functional theoretical (DFT) calculations. Interaction of the complexes 1–4 with Bovine Serum Albumin protein (BSA) has been studied by different spectroscopic techniques. A complete thermodynamic profile (ΔHo, ΔSo and ΔGo) was evaluated initially from the change in absorption and fluorescence spectra upon addition of BSA to the complexes. Appreciable binding constant values in the range ~ 0.94–4.51 × 104 M−1 indicate efficient binding tendency of the complexes to BSA with the sequence 1 ≅ 2 > 3 ≅ 4. Circular dichroism (CD), isothermal calorimetric titration experiments, molecular docking and molecular dynamics have been performed to gain deep insight into the binding regions of complex 1 to BSA. Experimental evidences suggest an interaction of zinc complexes at the surface of BSA protein and this particular binding has been exploited to determine unknown concentration of BSA protein. For this purpose complex 1 was explored as a BSA protein quantification tool. 相似文献
A sensitive and rapid LC–MS/MS method was developed and validated for the simultaneous quantitation of five selective KCNQ channel openers, namely ICA-27243, ML-213, PF-05020182, SF-0034 and flupirtine in mice plasma as per regulatory guideline. The analytes and the internal standard (IS; flupirtine-d4) were extracted from 50 µL mice plasma by liquid–liquid extraction, followed by chromatographic separation using an Atlantis C18 column with an isocratic mobile phase comprising 0.2% formic acid: acetonitrile (20:80, v/v) at a flow rate of 0.6 mL min?1 within 2.5 min. Detection and quantitation was done by multiple reaction monitoring on a triple quadrupole mass spectrometer following the transitions: m/z 268.9 → 140.8, 258.1 → 95.1, 367.2 → 269.1, 322.2 → 248.2, 305.7 → 196.4 and 309.1 → 196.1 for ICA-27243, ML-213, PF-05020182, SF-0034, flupirtine and the IS, respectively, in the positive ionization mode. The calibration curves were linear from 1.00 to 2008 ng mL?1 for all the analytes with r2 ≥ 0.99. The intra- and inter-batch accuracy and precision (% CV) across quality controls varied from 90.0 to 113 and 2.64 to 13.0; 93.8 to 114 and 3.15 to 14.9%, respectively, for all the analytes. Analytes were found to be stable under different stability conditions. The method was applied to a pharmacokinetic study in mice. 相似文献
We propose a generalized one-dimensional energy diffusion approach for describing the dynamics of multidimensional dynamical processes in the condensed phase. On the basis of a formalism originally due to Zwanzig, we obtain a one-dimensional kinetic equation for a properly selected relevant dynamical quantity and derive new analytical results for the dynamics of a multidimensional electron-transfer process, nonequilibrium solvation, and diffusive escape from a potential well. The calculated results for electron-transfer reactions in solvent-separated and contact ion pair systems are found to be in good agreement with the experimental results. We are able to explain the rate of the electron-transfer reaction using much smaller and reasonable values of the solvent reorganization energy in contrast to earlier works that had to use a much larger value. The proposed theory is not only conceptually simpler than the conventional approaches but is also free from many of their limitations. More importantly, it provides a single theoretical framework for describing a wide class of dynamical phenomena. 相似文献
In an unusual reaction of osmium(VIII) oxide with p-substituted aromatic amines (X-C(6)H(4)-NH(2), where X = Me, H, Cl) in heptane afforded the brown osmium(VI)-oxo complexes [OsO(L)(2)] (1a-c, L = N-aryl-1,2-arylenediamide) in moderate yields. The ligand L is formed in situ via oxidative ortho-C-N fusion of arylamines. The reaction occurs in an inert atmosphere, and a part of Os(VIII) is used up for the oxidation of aromatic amine. Single crystal X-ray structure of a representative complex 1a is solved. The structural analysis has authenticated the ortho-C-N fusion of ArNH(2) resulting in formation of the diamide ligand, L. The complex as a whole is penta-coordinated, and the coordination sphere has a distorted square pyramidal geometry (tau = 0.26). A similar reaction of osmium(VIII) oxide with the preformed N-phenyl-1,2-phenelene diamine produced the complex 1a in nearly quantitative yield. The substituted phenazine, 5-phenyl-3-phenylimino-3,5-dihydro-phenazine-2-ylamine, is obtained as a byproduct of the latter reaction. The complexes, 1a-c, can be reduced in a reversible one-electron step, as probed by cyclic voltammetry. The one electron reduced paramagnetic Os(V) intermediate is, however, Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) silent. Solution spectra of the osmium complexes show several multiple transitions in the UV-vis region. Density functional theory calculations were employed to confirm the structural features and to support the spectroscopic assignments. The complex 1a catalyzes oxidation of a wide variety of unsaturated hydrocarbons like alkenes, alkynes, and aldehydes to the corresponding carboxylic acids in the presence of tert-butylhydroperoxide (TBHP) efficiently at room temperature. 相似文献
Boron trifluoride (BF3) is a highly corrosive gas widely used in industry. Confining BF3 in porous materials ensures safe and convenient handling and prevents its degradation. Hence, it is highly desired to develop porous materials with high adsorption capacity, high stability, and resistance to BF3 corrosion. Herein, we designed and synthesized a Lewis basic single-crystalline hydrogen-bond crosslinked organic framework (HCOF-50) for BF3 storage and its application in catalysis. Specifically, we introduced self-complementary ortho-alkoxy-benzamide hydrogen-bonding moieties to direct the formation of highly organized hydrogen-bonded networks, which were subsequently photo-crosslinked to generate HCOFs. The HCOF-50 features Lewis basic thioether linkages and electron-rich pore surfaces for BF3 uptake. As a result, HCOF-50 shows a record-high 14.2 mmol/g BF3 uptake capacity. The BF3 uptake in HCOF-50 is reversible, leading to the slow release of BF3. We leveraged this property to reduce the undesirable chain transfer and termination in the cationic polymerization of vinyl ethers. Polymers with higher molecular weights and lower polydispersity were generated compared to those synthesized using BF3 ⋅ Et2O. The elucidation of the structure–property relationship, as provided by the single-crystal X-ray structures, combined with the high BF3 uptake capacity and controlled sorption, highlights the molecular understanding of framework-guest interactions in addressing contemporary challenges. 相似文献
