Synthesis,liquid crystalline and luminescent properties of trimeric phenylenevinylene with end-groups of(R)-(+)-2-methylbutyric acid ester

The trimeric phenylenevinylene with the symmetrical chiral end-groups(ChTPV) was synthesized.The liquid crystalline and luminescent properties of the ChTPV have been studied by differential scanning calorimetry(DSC),polarized optical microscopy (POM),absorption and photoluminescence spectra.The results indicated that the ChTPV exhibits mesophase over a wide temperature range and a typical optical texture of smectic phase.In contrast with the spectra of the solution,that of the film showed blue-shift in m...     

An improved synthesis of bis(cyclopentadienone)

<正>An improved strategy for the synthesis of 3,3'-(oxy-p-phenylene)bis(2,4,5-triphenylcyclopentadienone) was developed,which includes three steps:Friedel-Crafts reaction,oxidation and condensation.Importantly,the use of KMnO_4 made the second step simple and efficient,which has potential application to synthesis of bis(cyclopentadienone)s.The course of oxidation has been confirmed by isolated intermediates.     

An organic hydrogel as a matrix for the growth of calcite crystals

The growth of calcite in an aqueous gel of was studied and the appearance of the crystals was found to change over time. Crystals removed from the gel at progressively longer times showed severely affected surfaces resulting from dissolution. If crystals were removed from the gel after 3.5 hours, at which point there were no etch pits, and then placed in either buffer or pure water, etch pits, similar to those observed on crystals that are left in the gel, were observed. Control calcite crystals exposed to similar conditions (water or buffer) show no significant dissolution after equivalent times. A probable cause of the altered dissolution is the non-specific occlusion of gelator aggregates at sites of imperfection. The gel appears to provide a microenvironment in which the molecules that form the matrix also participate in the crystallization. This system allows the study of the unique properties of a gel for influencing the nucleation and growth of inorganic crystals, some of which may be important for better understanding biomineralization.

Regio- and stereo-selective synthesis of multi-substituted 3-pyrrolines

A regio-and stereo-selective synthesis of multi-substituted 3-pyrrolines has been developed.The multi-substituted 3-pyrrolines were synthesized in good yields by 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of methyl 2-(phenylselanyl)acrylate with azomethine ylides,followed by N-acylation and oxidation-elimination of phenylseleno group.     

Endonuclease-rolling circle amplification-based method for sensitive analysis of DNA-binding protein

A sensitive approach for the qualitative detection of DNA-binding protein on the microarray was developed.DNA complexes in which a partial duplex region is formed from a biotin-primer and a circle single strand DNA(ssDNA) were spotted on a microarray. The endonuclease recognition site(ERS) and the DNA-binding sites(DBS) were arranged side by side within the duplex region. The working principle of the detection system is described as follows:when the DNA-binding protein capture the DBS,the endonuclease co...     

A computational study on the gas phase reaction of Os^＋ with N2O

The reaction of Os~+(~6D,~4F) with N_2O has been investigated at B3LYP/TZVP and CCSD(T)/6-311+G~* levels of theory.The mechanisms corresponding to O-atom and N-atom transfer reactions have been revealed.It was found that on the sextet reaction surface both the O-atom and N-atom transfer reactions undergo through direct-abstraction mechanism,leading to the formation of OsO~+ and OsN~+,whereas on quartet surface the two reactions undergo through O-N bond or N-N bond insertion mechanism.The calculated energ...     

Antibody recognition of chiral surfaces. Enantiomorphous crystals of leucine-leucine-tyrosine

Monoclonal antibodies were selected after immunization with crystals of the tripeptide l-leucine-l-leucine-l-tyrosine. They interact with the tripeptide crystals, but do not interact with the tripeptide molecule, with other crystalline surfaces, or with adsorbed protein. The interactions of two antibodies with crystals of l-Leu-l-Leu-l-Tyr and of its enantiomer d-Leu-d-Leu-d-Tyr were characterized in depth. Antibody 48E is stereoselective and enantioselective: it recognizes only the [011] faces of the l-Leu-l-Leu-l-Tyr crystals, and not the enantiomorphous [011] faces of d-Leu-d-Leu-d-Tyr crystals, or any other faces of either crystal. In contrast, antibody 602E is poorly stereoselective and is not enantioselective: it recognizes the crystals of both enantiomers, interacting with a number of different faces of each. The different recognition patterns are explained on the basis of the nature of the interactions and the structure of the interacting surfaces. Understanding this antibody specificity advances our general understanding of surface recognition and transfer of chiral information across biological interfaces.
