[reaction: see text] A new approach for the synthesis of (+/-)-indatraline, which is a 3-phenyl-1-indanamine that displays several biological activities, is described. The strategy features as the key step a diastereoselective ring contraction of a 1,2-dihydronaphthalene promoted by PhI(OTs)OH, to construct the indan ring system. The oxidative rearrangement of other 1,2-dihydronaphthalenes was also investigated, generalizing this method to obtain indans. 相似文献
The aim of this work was to have cellulase activity and hemicellulase activity screenings of endophyte Acremonium species (Acremonium zeae EA0802 and Acremonium sp. EA0810). Both fungi were cultivated in submerged culture (SC) containing l-arabinose, d-xylose, oat spelt xylan, sugarcane bagasse, or corn straw as carbon source. In solid-state fermentation, it was tested as
carbon source sugarcane bagasse or corn straw. The highest FPase, endoglucanase, and xylanase activities were produced by
Acremonium sp. EA0810 cultivated in SC containing sugarcane bagasse as a carbon source. The highest β-glucosidase activity was produced
by Acremonium sp. EA0810 cultivated in SC using d-xylose as carbon source. A. zeae EA0802 has highest α-arabinofuranosidase and α-galactosidase activities in SC using xylan as a carbon source. FPase, endoglucanase,
β-glucosidase, and xylanase from Acremonium sp. EA0810 has optimum pH and temperatures of 6.0, 55 °C; 5.0, 70 °C; 4.5, 60 °C; and 6.5, 50 °C, respectively. α-Arabinofuranosidase
and α-galactosidase from A. zeae EA0802 has optimum pH and temperatures of 5.0, 60 °C and 4.5, 45 °C, respectively. It was analyzed the application of Acremonium sp. EA0810 to hydrolyze sugarcane bagasse, and it was achieved 63% of conversion into reducing sugar and 42% of conversion
into glucose. 相似文献
We have obtained and characterized self assembled monolayers (SAMs) of 4-aminothiophenol (4-ATP) and 1-(4-mercaptophenyl)-2,6-diphenyl-4-(4-pyridyl)pyridinium tetrafluoroborate (MDPP) functionalized with iron phthalocyanine (FePc) adsorbed on gold (111) electrodes. The catalytic activity of these SAMs/FePc was examined for the reduction of O2 in aqueous media (pH = 4) and compared with that of bare gold and of gold coated directly with FePc molecules. Scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) studies confirm the functionalization of the 4-ATP by FePc. The electrocatalytic studies carried out with Au/FePc, Au/4-ATP/FePc and Au/MDPP/FePc electrodes show that the O2 reduction takes place by a 4-electron transfer to give water in contrast to a 2-electron-transfer process observed on the bare gold. The activity of the electrodes increases as follows: Au < Au/FePc < Au/4-ATP/FePc < Au/MDPP/FePc. 相似文献
Bionanocomposites with improved properties based on two microbial polysaccharides, pullulan and bacterial cellulose, were
prepared and characterized. The novel materials were obtained through a simple green approach by casting water-based suspensions
of pullulan and bacterial cellulose and characterized by TGA, RDX, tensile assays, SEM and AFM. The effect of the addition
of glycerol, as a plasticizer, on the properties of the materials was also evaluated. All bionanocomposites showed considerable
improvement in thermal stability and mechanical properties, compared to the unfilled pullulan films, evidenced by the significant
increase in the degradation temperature (up to 40 °C) and on both Young’s modulus and tensile strength (increments of up to
100 and 50%, for films without glycerol and up to 8,000 and 7,000% for those plasticized with glycerol). Moreover, these bionanocomposite
films are highly translucent and could be labelled as sustainable materials since they were prepared entirely from renewable
resources and could find applications in areas as organic electronics, dry food packaging and in the biomedical field. 相似文献
Force constants and dipole moment derivatives have been computed for the molecules CH3X(X=F, Cl, Br, I) using MO wavefunctions with pseudo-potentials for the interaction between the inner shell and valence electrons. The values obtained at the SCF approximation level from a set of gaussian valence orbitals contracted in double-zeta form and enriched with polarization functions compare well with experimental assignments of force and interaction constants, as well as integrated intensities from infrared data. The transferability of atomic force fields and polar tensors (second derivatives of total energies and first derivatives of dipole moments with respect to atomic displacements in cartesian coordinates) is discussed. 相似文献
We applied the numerical renormalization group method to study the electron spin resonance (ESR) of a single-impurity Anderson model with a gap in the conduction electron density of states, centered at the Fermi level. We analyzed the relaxation rate of a magnetic probe located at a position around the Anderson impurity. It presents different behaviors for the symmetric and the asymmetric case. For the symmetric case and any , goes to a constant for (Kondo resonance). decreases monotonically to zero only for . For the asymmetric case, there is a under which decreases monotonically to zero as , and above which saturates, as occurs in the symmetric case for . This behavior indicates a quantum phase transition from the quenched to the unquenched magnetic moment in the ground state of the Anderson ion. 相似文献
The aim of this work is to report phase equilibrium data for the binary systems (CO2 + α-humulene) and (CO2 + trans-caryophyllene), and for the ternary system (CO2 + α-humulene + trans-caryophyllene). Results from literature show that α-humulene and trans-caryophyllene are the main compounds responsible for the anti-inflammatory and anti-allergic characteristics attributed to the medicinal plant Cordia verbenacea D.C., hence giving importance to the phase behaviour investigation performed in this work. Phase equilibrium experiments were performed in a high-pressure, variable-volume view cell over the temperature range of T = (303 to 343) K and pressures up to 20 MPa. (Liquid + liquid) and (vapour + liquid + liquid) equilibrium were observed at T = 303 K, while (vapour + liquid) phase transitions were verified to occur from T = (313 to 343) K, for all systems studied. Thermodynamic modelling was performed using the Peng–Robinson equation of state and the classical quadratic mixing rules, with a satisfactory agreement between experimental and calculated values. 相似文献
A fast, sensitive and specific liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry method has been developed for quantification of digoxin in human plasma. The method was optimized to bioequivalence studies aiming higher sensitivity and selectivity than previously published methods, in addition to shorter run time allowing high-throughput sample analyses from volunteers. Chromatographic separation was achieved by an RP-18e column hyphenated to an API 5000 mass spectrometer system set at negative electrospray ionization and operating in the MRM mode. Calibration curve was linear over a wide range of concentration (50.0–6000.0 pg mL−1), with the lower limit of quantification at 50.0 pg mL−1 and without interfering peaks at the retention time of digoxin (2.09 min). Dexamethasone was used as internal standard and samples were cleaned up by liquid-liquid extraction obtaining a mean recovery of 73.8%. Validation results confirmed inter-batch accuracy (−8.66 to 5.78%), precision (4.1–10.6%) and stability, in accordance with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and the Brazilian National Health Surveillance Agency guidelines. The developed analytical method could be successfully applied to a single oral dose (0.25 mg), one-way, randomized, two-sequence, crossover bioequivalence study validating, up to date, the fastest analysis and the most sensitive and specific method already published for digoxin quantification.
An electroanalytical method for the determination of morpholine, a corrosion inhibitor, was developed at a cathodically pretreated boron-doped diamond electrode (BDDE). The voltammetric response of morpholine at the BDDE in 0.1?mol L?1 KCl (pH 10) shows an irreversible oxidation process at approximately 1.3?V vs. Ag/AgCl in 3.0?mol L?1 KCl. Using cyclic voltammetry, the number of electrons involved in the morpholine electroxidation mechanism was found to be 1. The application of chronoamperometry showed that the apparent diffusion coefficient (D0) was 2.99?×?10?6 cm2 s?1. Using square wave voltammetry under the optimized conditions (frequency of 30.0?Hz, pulse amplitude of 100?mV and step potential of 20?mV at pH 10.0), the developed method provided limits of detection and quantification of 2.1 and 6.9?mg L?1, respectively, with a linear range from 5.0 to 100.0?mg L?1 (r?=?0.991). Intraday (n?=?10) and interday (two consecutive day) precision values assessed as the relative standard deviation for solutions containing 30.0, 60.0, and 90.0?mg L?1 of morpholine were from 0.41 to 5.86% and 0.92 to 3.19%, respectively. The feasibility of the method for the interference-free determination of morpholine was verified by the analysis of synthetic boiler water samples containing CaCO3, Na2SO3, Na3PO4, FeCl3, and humic acid as organic matter. In addition, hydrazine was added as a possible interfering compound because of its widespread use in corrosion inhibition. Recovery values from 90.9 to 109.4% were obtained in the synthetic boiler water, thereby attesting to the accuracy of the method. 相似文献
