Synthesis and anticancer property of one Ce(III) compound based on 5-(2-pyrazinyl)tetrazole-2-acetic acid

Mononuclear [Ce(pztza)₂(H₂O)₆](pztza)·H₂O (1) (pztza = 5-(2-pyrazinyl)tetrazole-2-acetato) has been prepared and characterized by IR, elemental analysis and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. PEG_-5000 (poly(ethyleneglycol_-5000)) coated [Ce(pztza)₂(H₂O)₆](pztza)·H₂O nanoparticles (NPs) can disperse into distilled water. In vitro study on Hela cells shows that Hpztza is nontoxic while [Ce(pztza)₂(H₂O)₆](pztza)·H₂O NPs show high toxicity with half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC₅₀) of 17 μg/mL (1.93 × 10^?5 M). In addition, such NPs can inhibit the migration of Hela cells effectively.

Computational design and fabrication of core–shell magnetic molecularly imprinted polymer for dispersive micro‐solid‐phase extraction coupled with high‐performance liquid chromatography for the determination of rhodamine 6G

A novel core–shell magnetic nano‐adsorbent with surface molecularly imprinted polymer coating was fabricated and then applied to dispersive micro‐solid‐phase extraction followed by determination of rhodamine 6G using high‐performance liquid chromatography. The molecularly imprinted polymer coating was prepared by copolymerization of dopamine and m‐aminophenylboronic acid (functional monomers), in the presence of rhodamine 6G (template). The selection of the suitable functional monomers was based on the interaction between different monomers and the template using the density functional theory. The ratios of the monomers to template were further optimized by an OA₉ (3⁴) orthogonal array design. The binding performances of the adsorbent were evaluated by static, kinetic, and selective adsorption experiments. The results reveal that the adsorbent possesses remarkable affinity and binding specificity for rhodamine 6G because of the enhanced Lewis acid‐base interaction between the B(Ш) embedded in the imprinted cavities and the template. The nano‐adsorbent was successfully applied to dispersive micro‐solid‐phase extraction coupled to high‐performance liquid chromatography for the trace determination of rhodamine 6G in samples with a detection limit of 2.7 nmol/L. Spiked recoveries ranged from 93.0–99.1, 89.5–92.7, and 86.9–105% in river water, matrimony vine and paprika samples, respectively, with relative standard deviations of less than 4.3%.     

Palladium(0)‐Catalyzed Intermolecular Allylic Dearomatization of Indoles by a Formal [4+2] Cycloaddition Reaction

Bridged indoline derivatives were synthesized by an intermolecular Pd‐catalyzed allylic dearomatization reaction of substituted indoles. The reaction between indoles and allyl carbonates bearing a nucleophilic alcohol side‐chain proceeds in a cascade fashion, providing bridged indolines in excellent enantioselectivity.     

Subgrid-scale dynamics and model test in a turbulent stratified jet with coexistence of stable and unstable stratification

The subgrid-scale dynamics of stratified flows is studied in a horizontally introduced turbulent jet with coexistence of stable and unstable stratification of a low Richardson number case and a high Richardson number case. The positive production of subgrid-scale kinetic energy and the production of scalar variance suggest the forward energy cascade. The subgrid-scale buoyant destruction plays a role as a sink of subgrid-scale kinetic energy in the stable stratification while holds a role of turbulent generation in the unstable stratification. The role-switch of buoyant destruction in the stable stratification of high-Ri case implies the occurrence of a destabilising process triggered by the coupled instability mechanisms. The energy balance assumption related to the production of and the dissipation of subgrid-scale kinetic energy as well as the subgrid-scale buoyant destruction may fail. The a-priori test suggests the scale-invariant dynamic and standard Smagorinsky models not to work properly here, while the scale-dependent dynamic model gives a decent performance but with restrictions of the ratio between two testing filter scales.

Synthesis of Long Chain Fatty Acids Acylated Coumarin Glycoside Esters with Lipase as Catalyst

A series of novel coumarin glycoside esters(1―9) was synthesized through the acylation reaction of 4-methylcoumarin-7-O-β-D-glucoside(11) with different long chain fatty acids catalyzed by lipase in organic medium. The acylation occurred regioselectively at the 6'-OH of glycosyl moiety. The enzymatic synthesis was optimized to achieve 54%―70% yield using immobilized lipase(Novozym 435, 10 mg/mL) as catalyst and acetone and pyridine(9:1, volume ratio, water content<1%) as solvent with an acyl donor/coumarin glycoside molar ratio of 10:1 at a temperature of 40―50 ℃ for 96 h. All the synthesized compounds were confirmed.
