N-Aminophenanthridinium salt reacted with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate in the presence of potassium carbonate to give a 3,3a-dihydropyrazolo[1,5-f]phenanthridine but with mono-substituted acetylenes (ethyl propiolate and benzoylacetylene) it produced aromatized pyrazolo-[1,5-f]phenanthridines (XII and XIII). The reaction of the N-benzoylimine with di-substituted acetylenes (dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate and methyl phenylpropiolate) and mono-substituted acetylenes (ethyl propiolate and benzoylacetylene) yielded 1,3a-dihydropyrazolo[1,5-f]phenanthridines and the aromatized products (XII and XIII), respectively. 相似文献
We describe herein the relationship between the spatial arrangement of self-organized galactose clusters and lectin recognition. beta-Galactose-modified deoxyuridine phosphoramidite was synthesized and applied to solid-phase synthesis to provide 18-, 20-, and 22-mers of site-specifically galactosylated oligodeoxynucleotides (Gal-ODNs). These Gal-ODNs were self-organized through hybridization with the corresponding 18-, 20-, and 22-mers of half-sliding complementary ODNs (hsc-ODNs) to give periodic galactoside clusters. The self-organization of ODNs was confirmed by size exclusion chromatography and gel electrophoresis. The binding of the Gal-clusters to the FITC-labeled RCA(120) lectin was analyzed by monitoring the change in fluorescence intensity. The assembly of 20-mer Gal-ODN with the 20-mer hsc-ODN was strongly and cooperatively recognized by the lectin. The 18-mer assembly was bound more weakly and less cooperatively, and the 22-mer assembly was minimally bound to the lectin. RCA(120) lectin recognized not only the density of galactoside residues, but also the spatial arrangement. The size of the Gal cluster was estimated from the association constant of Gal-ODN with hsc-ODN. The relationship between lectin-recognition and Gal-cluster size is also discussed. 相似文献
It was found that [60]fullerene encapsulated in p-sulfonatocalix[8]arene and single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) solubilized by sodium dodecylsulfate can be readily deposited on the ITO electrode by electrochemical oxidative polymerization of ethylenedioxythiophene (EDOT) without chemical modification of these carbon clusters. The driving force for the deposition is an electrostatic interaction between the anionic complexes and the cationic charges of poly(EDOT) formed in the oxidative polymerization process. The surface morphology was thoroughly characterized by scanning electron micrograph: the [60]fullerene/poly(EDOT) film is covered by nano-particles with 20-100 nm diameters whereas the SWNTs/poly(EDOT) film is covered by nanorods with several microm length and ca. 100 nm diameter. The results indicate that the anionic complexes act as nuclei for the polymer growth in the oxidation polymerization. Interestingly, when these modified ITO electrodes were photoirradiated, the appearance of a photocurrent wave was observed. The action spectra showed that the photoexcited energy of [60]fullerene or SWNTs is efficiently collected by the electroconductive poly(EDOT) film and transferred to the ITO electrode. 相似文献
Difference spectra between squid rhodopsin and its bathorhodopsin at room temperature were measured ca. 150 ps and ca. 500 ps after the excitation at 347.2 nm by a double-beam picosecond time-resolved spectrometer. The spectra measured showed a red shift of the isosbestic point between squid rhodopsin and its bathorhodopsin and a lower ΔAmax/ΔAmin value compared with those measured at low temperatures by conventional spectrophotometry. 相似文献
As -cyclodextrin (-CD) was added to D2Osolutions of 2-methylnaphthalene, its proton signals shifted to lower fieldsat low concentrations of -CD. At 2.0 × 10-2 moldm-3 of -CD, however, a reverse, higher-field shift wasobserved for the H-8 signal, indicating the formation of 1 : 1 and 2 : 1-CD–2-methylnaphthalene inclusion complexes. Intrinsic chemicalshift differences of all the protons in 2-methylnaphthalene have beenevaluated for both the 1 : 1 and the 2 : 1-CD–2-methylnaphthalene inclusion complexes. These intrinsicchemical shift differences suggest that the first -CD molecule has noselectivity in accommodating one end of uncomplexed 2-methylnaphthalene;-CD binds to a methyl group, as well as a naphthalene ring-end havingno methyl group, to form the 1 : 1 inclusion complex, resulting in theformation of two kinds of 1 : 1 complexes. 相似文献
Coordination complexes of lithium chloride with polar solvents and monomers were isolated, and their physical properties were studied. The parallel between stabilities of isolated complexes and coordination function in the polymerization system is discussed. The increase of the Q and e values of p-vinylbenzamide (VBA) supports the mechanism of vinyl-type polymerization of VBA in the presence of the salt. The specific solvent effect of dimethyl sulfoxide was determined by measurement of electrical conductivity of a model system. 相似文献
An acid urease column was applied to a fluorometric flow-injection analysis (FIA) system as a recognition element for determination of urea in rice wines.
The acid urease has specific properties of showing its catalytic activity in low pH range and tolerance to ethanol in comparison to those of a urease from jack-beans. The enzymes were covalently immobilized onto porous glass beads with controlled pore size and then, packed into a small polymer column. The flow-type of the biosensing system was assembled with a sample injection valve, the immobilized enzyme column, and a flow-through quartz cell attached to a fluorescent spectrophotometer. Citrate buffer (50 mM, pH 5.0) as the carrier solution was continuously pumped through the system. Sample solutions were introduced into the system via a rotary injection valve. A standard urea solution was measured through monitoring variations in fluorescent intensity attributable to fluorescent isoindole derivatives formed by coupling with ammonia molecules released in the enzymatic hydrolysis of urea and orthophthalaldehyde reagents. The fluorescent intensity was measured under the conditions of λex = 415 nm and λem = 485 nm. A wide, linear relationship was obtained between the concentration of urea (1.0–100 μM) and the variation in fluorescent intensity. The monitoring did not suffer from ethanol and various amino acids contained in rice wines. Real samples pretreated with ion exchange resins for removal of endogenous ammonia were introduced into the FIA system and urea in the samples was determined. These results were compared with those obtained with use of an F-kit method. The proposed FIA system should present sensitive, selective and convenient analysis of urea in alcoholic beverages. 相似文献
Photocatalytic reactions occurring at semiconductor particles/solution interfaces can be applied to organic syntheses. In this review article, examples of photocatalytic syntheses of cyclic amino acids by suspended semiconductor particles, e.g., titanium(IV) oxide or cadmium(II) sulfide are introduced and interpreted. Different from the photocatalytic decomposition of pollutants under aerobic conditions, selective conversion of organic compounds can be driven by the photocatalytic reactions under deaerated conditions. 相似文献
The structure and ethanol complexation of a cyclic tetrasaccharide (CTS) in aqueous solution were investigated by proton NMR spectroscopy and molecular mechanics calculations. Two glucose units, A and B, of CTS are alternatively bonded by alpha-1,3 and alpha-1,6 linkages. The overlapped signals of protons A5, A6S, A6R, B3, B6S and B6R were resolved by spectral simulations to determine their chemical shifts and vicinal coupling constants. All vicinal coupling constants except for the A5-A6 spin system are consistent with the dihedral angles in the X-ray crystal structure. Each of protons A5, A6S, and A6R in the two units of A is equivalent with respect to the chemical shift. The vicinal coupling constants of (3)J(5-6S) and (3)J(5-6R) for unit A are close to the average of two rotamers that are present in crystals. The intensities of cross-peaks in the rotating frame nuclear Overhauser effect spectroscopy (ROESY) spectrum were rather well correlated with the effective distances calculated for the X-ray structure and molecular mechanics structures calculated in vacuo and water, although they are slightly better correlated with molecular mechanics structure in vacuo than with the other structures. From the changes of the chemical shifts of several CTS protons with increasing ethanol concentration, it was suggested that adsorption sites of ethanol on the plate structure of CTS are protons B2 and B4 (site B) in the concave face side and protons A1 and A2 (site A) in the convex back side. The binding constants for sites A and B are 0.0061 and 0.0176 M(-1), respectively. These binding constants are much smaller than a value of 4.1 M(-1) for the ethanol-alpha-cyclodextrin complex. 相似文献
