By a simple process, 3-methoxyjuglone (= 8-hydroxy-2-methoxy-1,4-naphthoquinone; 9 ) has been synthesized from 1,2,4-trimethoxybenzene ( 5 ) and converted, after prenylation, to α-caryopterone ( 1 ; Scheme 1), a pyranojuglone pigment from Caryopteris clandonensis. On the other hand, juglone (= 5-hydroxy-1,4-naphthoquinone; 12 ) was regioselectively prenylated at C(2) via its 1-methoxy-cyclohexa-1,3-diene adduct 15 (Scheme 2). The 2-prenyljuglone ( 4 ) thus formed led to 1 after oxidation and other reactions. 相似文献
A new type of biosensor is described. It is based on the use of a Clark-type oxygen electrode placed in an electromagnetic field. The biomolecules used in this sensor are immobilized on small magnetic beads which are added to the system when needed and removed as required. By varying the strength of the magnetic field, a homogeneous distribution of particles at the electrode tip is achieved. The electrode is used for the determination of glucose with immobilized glucose oxidase as well as cells of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. 相似文献
We developed a new method for Pd(II)-catalyzed direct aromatic carbonylation in a phosphine-free catalytic system using Pd(OAc)2 and Cu(OAc)2 in an atmosphere of CO gas containing air. The carbonylation proceeded with ortho-palladation, inducing a remarkable site selectivity to afford a variety of five- or six-membered benzolactams from secondary omega-arylalkylamines, such as N-alkylbenzylamines or N-alkylphenethylamines. 相似文献
A method is described for the rapid, direct emission spectrometric determination of iron in airborne particulate matter collected on polystyrene fiber filters using a conventional high-volume sampler and a Japanese low-volume sampler. The suspension prepared by dissolving the filter material in xylene was directly nebulized into the inductivelycoupled plasma excitation source. An ultrasonic immersion device was used for stirring purposes. Particles within the size range 0.1–100 μm in diameter are collected on the high-volume filters, while the largest particles on low-volume filters do not exceed 10 μm in diameter. The difference in the particle size composition entailed the use of a separate set of standard suspensions for each sample type. Standard suspensions for calibration were prepared from NBS SRM-1648 (urban particulates) as originally received and from its ground powder for high-volume and low-volume samples, respectively. The relative standard deviation was usually below 5%, which is acceptable for large-scale air pollution survey work. The possibility of determining other major and minor elements in airborne particulate matter was also examined. 相似文献
L-Daunosamine, the carbohydrate component of a group of important anticancer anthracycline antibiotics, has been efficiently prepared from L-lactic acid in a completely stereoselective manner through direct C-acylation using diphenyl phosphorazidate (DPPA). 相似文献
Apatite derived by sol-gel routes through an amorphous state or derived biomimetically is likely to provide chemically and
biologically active surfaces. Thus apatite or apatite-composite particles were prepared by spray-pyrolysis of several solutions
as they were applicable to medical treatment. Calcium lactate and ammonium dihydrogen phosphate aqueous solutions stabilized
with ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid were sprayed ultrasonically and pyrolysed at 600°C to yield amorphous particles of apatite
while apatite-ferric oxide composite powders were prepared from the solutions of calcium lactate and ferric nitrate. Solutions
of calcium nitrate and titanium ethoxide in 0.5 N HNO3 were also spray-pyrolysed at 600°C to prepare calcium titanate and titanium oxide particles trapped on a Ti substrate. Apatite
could biomimetically be developed on the calcium titanate particles when they were soaked in an acellular simulated body fluid. 相似文献
The effects of self‐assembled polysaccharide nanogels on colloidal and thermal stability of lipase from Pseudomonas cepacia were investigated. The enzyme activity, especially kcat, drastically increased in the presence of nanogels of cholesterol‐bearing pullulan (CHP). The thermostability of lipase complex increased because the denaturation temperature of lipase increased by more than 20 °C by complexation with CHP nanogels. Lipase denaturation and aggregation upon heating was effectively prevented by complexation with CHP nanogels. Moreover, complexation with CHP nanogels protected lipase from lyophilization‐induced aggregation. Nano‐encapsulation with CHP nanogel is a useful method for colloidal and thermal stabilization of unstable enzyme.
