A new norlabdane diterpenoid, named vitrifolin A, was isolated from the fruits of Vitex trifolia Linn. var. simplicifolia Cham. Its structure was elucidated by mean of spectroscopic methods, including HRESIMS, IR, 1D and 2D NMR. The inhibitory effect of vitrifolin A on nitric oxide production in lipopolysaccarideactivated mouse macrophages was also evaluated. 相似文献
A convenient one-pot method for the synthesis of substituted quinolines via the reaction of aniline and aldehyde in the presence of a Lewis acid (AlCl3) and an oxidant (H2O2) has been developed. Hydrogen peroxide was found to promote the reaction by its function as a hydrogen hunter, hindering the formation of by-product N-alkylaniline. The effect of the oxidant on the yield and selectivity was studied. When the molar ratio of aniline, n-butyraldehyde, and H2O2 was 1:3:0.5 at 25 °C, the yield of 3-ethyl-2-propylquinoline was improved from 64% (reaction without H2O2) to 84% (with H2O2), and the quinoline selectivity was improved to almost 100%. Moreover, the reaction time was obviously reduced. The substituent effect was also investigated in this work. 相似文献
Aqueous two-phase systems (ATPS) are formed in mixtures of sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS), cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB), and sodium bromide (NaBr). Two different kinds of ATPS appear when CTAB and SDS surfactants are in excess, respectively. Such ATPS may provide a new, useful partitioning system for separation of bovine serum albumin (BSA). The partitioning of BSA was studied in these systems. The results show that the partitioning is affected by the electrical property, the hydrophobicity and the structure of liquid crystal (LC), which exists in the top phase of the ATPS. BSA is extracted into the top phase with higher distribution coefficient when LC and BSA are oppositely charged. The hydrophobicity of LC, which can be improved by increasing the length of alkyl group, enhances the distribution coefficient. The hydrophobicity of lamellar LC and hexagonal LC is stronger than that of cubic LC, which causes extractive capability of the former is higher than the latter. 相似文献
An attempt has been made to design double‐stranded ladder‐like coordination polymers (CPs) of hemidirected PbII. Four CPs, [Pb(μ‐bpe)(O2C‐C6H5)2] ? 2H2O ( 1 ), [Pb2(μ‐bpe)2(μ‐O2C‐C6H5)2(O2C‐C6H5)2] ( 2 ), [Pb2(μ‐bpe)2(μ‐O2C‐p‐Tol)2(O2C‐p‐Tol)2] ? 1.5 H2O ( 3 ) and [Pb2(μ‐bpe)2(μ‐O2C‐m‐Tol)2(O2C‐m‐Tol)2] ( 4 ) (bpe=1,2‐bis(4′‐pyridyl)ethylene), have been synthesised and investigated for their solid‐state photoreactivity. CPs 2 – 4 , having a parallel orientation of bpe molecules in their ladder structures and being bridged by carboxylates, were found to be photoreactive, whereas CP 1 is a linear one‐dimensional (1D) CP with guest water molecules aggregating to form a hydrogen‐bonded 1D structure. The linear strands of 1 were found to pair up upon eliminating lattice water molecules by heating, which led to the solid‐state structural transformation of photostable linear 1D CP 1 into photoreactive ladder CP 2 . In the construction of the double‐stranded ladder‐like structures, the parallel alignment of C?C bonds in 2 – 4 is dictated by the chelating and μ2‐η2:η1 bridging modes of the benzoate and toluate ligands. The role of solvents in the formation of such double‐stranded ladder‐like structures has also been investigated. A single‐crystal‐to‐single‐crystal transformation occurred when 4 was irradiated under UV light to form [Pb2(rctt‐tpcb)(μ‐O2C‐m‐Tol)2(O2C‐m‐Tol)2] ( 5 ). 相似文献
This work presents analytical, numerical and experimental demonstrations of light diffracted through a logarithmic spiral (LS) nanoslit, which forms a type of switchable and focus‐tunable structure. Owing to a strong dependence on the incident photon spin, the proposed LS‐nanoslit converges incoming light of opposite handedness (to that of the LS‐nanoslit) into a confined subwavelength spot, while it shapes light with similar chirality into a donut‐like intensity profile. Benefitting from the varying width of the LS‐nanoslit, different incident wavelengths interfere constructively at different positions, i.e., the focal length shifts from 7.5 μm (at λ = 632.8 nm) to 10 μm (at λ = 488 nm), which opens up new opportunities for tuning and spatially separating broadband light at the micrometer scale.
