Enhanced fluorescence from o-phthalaldehyde and fluorescamine fluorophores using Triton and β-cyclodextrin

Mexiletine— and lysine hydrochloride—o-phthalaldehyde and mexiletine hydrochloride—, cysteine—, cysteamine—, homocysteine— and lysine hydrochloride—fluorescamine derivatives were subjected to Triton and β-cyclodextrin enhancement treatments. Of several classical fluorescence-enhancing reagents tested (Triton, β-cyclodextrin, sodium dodecyl sulphate, Brij), Triton provided the best results, followed by β-cyclodextrin. Increases in fluorescence emission by a factor of up to about 10 (mexiletine—fluorescamine—Triton X-100) were observed, with a generally negligible influence of the enhancing reagents on the excitation and emission maxima. Fluorescence enhancement by the addition of a suitable reagent solution to the final analyte solution may, in specific instances, enhance the detectability of native or chemically induced fluorophores.     

SYNTHESIS OF MESOPOROUS POLY(STYRENE-co-MALEIC ANHYDRIDE)/SILICA HYBRID MATERIALS VIA A NONSURFACTANT-TEMPLATED SOL-GEL PROCESS*

Mesoporous poly (styrene-co-maleic anhydride)/silica hybrid materials have been prepared. The synthesis wasachieved by the HCl-catalyzed sol-gel reactions of tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) and styrene-maleic anhydride copolymerin the presence of 3-aminopropyl triethoxysilane (APTES) as a coupling agent and citric acid as a nonsurfactant template orpore-forming agent, followed by ethanol extraction. Characterization results from nitrogen sorption isotherms and powder X-ray diffraction indicate that polymer-modified mesoporous materials with large specific surface areas (e.g. 900 m~2/g) andpore volumes (e.g. 0.6 cm~3/g) could be prepared. As the citric acid concentration is increased, the specific surface areas, porevolumes and pore diameters of the hybrid materials increase.     

MORPHOLOGIES AND GAS SEPARATION PROPERTIES OF MELT-SPUN ASYMMETRIC POLY(4-METHYL-1-PENTENE)HOLLOW FIBER MEMBRANES*

Poly(4-methyl-1-pentene) (PMP) hollow fiber membranes were prepared by the melt-spun and cold-stretch(MSCS) method. Scanning electronic microscopy (SEM) was used to characterize the section and surface structures of themembranes with special asymmetric structure. The preliminary results of gas permeation measurements indicated that the resultant hollow fiber membranes have the potential ability for oxygen/nitrogen separation.     

Adsorption, desorption and activities of acid phosphatase on various colloidal particles from an Ultisol

Adsorption, desorption and activity of acid phosphatase on various soil colloidal particles and pure clay minerals were studied. Higher adsorption amounts and low percentage of desorption of acid phosphatase were found on fine soil clays (<0.2 μm). Electrostatic force and ligand exchange are the major driving forces that are involved in the adsorption of enzymes on soil clays. More enzyme molecules were adsorbed on soil clays in the presence of organic components. However, enzymes on organic clays were more easily released. One-third of the enzyme on goethite was adsorbed via ligand exchange process. Some other interactions, such as van der Waals force, hydrophobic force and hydrogen bonding may be more important in the adsorption of enzyme on kaolinite and the enzyme in this system cannot be easily removed. Coarse clays (0.2–2 μm) and inorganic soil clays had higher affinities for enzyme molecules than fine clays and organic clays, respectively. The activity of enzyme bound on soil clays was inhibited and the thermal stability was increased in the presence of organic matter. Data obtained in this study are helpful for a better understanding of the interactions of enzymes with inorganic and organic constituents in soil and associated environments.     

Asymmetric direct vinylogous carbon-carbon bond formation catalyzed by bifunctional organocatalysts

The bifunctional chiral thiourea-tertiary amine organocatalysts have been applied to a direct asymmetric vinylogous Michael addition of α,α-dicyanoolefins to nitroolefins with 2-10 mol % catalyst loadings. The electronic properties of the thiourea-based catalysts have significant influences on this reaction. Moderate to excellent enantioselectivities (57-95% ee) have been achieved with low to good isolated yields through fine tuning the structures of the bifunctional organocatalysts. Much better ees were obtained for some α,α-dicyanoolefinic substrates compared with that catalyzed by modified cinchona alkaloids.
