Synthesis of 5′‐O‐(2‐Azido‐2‐deoxy‐α‐D‐glycosyl)nucleosides and Their Antitumor Activities

The 1,3,4,6‐tetra‐O‐acetyl‐2‐azido‐2‐deoxy‐β‐D ‐mannopyranose ( 4 ) or the mixture of 1,3,6‐tri‐O‐acetyl‐2‐azido‐2‐deoxy‐4‐O‐(2,3,4,6‐tetra‐O‐acetyl‐β‐D ‐galactopyranosyl)‐β‐D ‐mannopyranose ( 10 ) and the corresponding α‐D ‐glucopyranose‐type glycosyl donor 9 / 10 reacted at room temperature with protected nucleosides 12 – 15 in CH₂Cl₂ solution in the presence of BF₃?OEt₂ as promoter to give 5′‐O‐(2‐azido‐2‐deoxy‐α‐D ‐glycosyl)nucleosides in reasonable yields (Schemes 2 and 3). Only the 5′‐O‐(α‐D ‐mannopyranosyl)nucleosides were obtained. Compounds 21, 28, 30 , and 31 showed growth inhibition of HeLa cells and hepatoma Bel‐7402 cells at a concentration of 10 μM in vitro.     

A facile solid-phase synthesis of substituted 2(5H)-furanones from polymer-supported alpha-selenocarboxylic acids

The synthesis of polystyrene-supported alpha-selenoacetic acid, alpha-selenopropionic acid, and alpha-selenophenylacetic acid is described. The reaction of the dilithio derivatives of polymer-supported alpha-selenocarboxylic acids with racemic epoxides or optically active styrene oxide afforded polystyrene-supported gamma-substituted alpha-selenobutyrolactones. The alpha-alkylation reaction of gamma-substituted polystyrene-supported alpha-selenobutyrolactones provided another route for the synthesis of polystyrene-supported alpha,gamma-disubstituted alpha-selenobutyrolactones. Subsequent oxidation-elimination with an excess of 30% hydrogen peroxide at room temperature afforded substituted (3- and 5-mono-; 3,4- and 3,5-di) 2(5H)-furanones in high yields and good purities.     

Enhanced thermal properties and flame retardancy from a thermosetting blend of a phosphorus‐containing bismaleimide and epoxy resins

Epoxy resins modified by an organosoluble phosphorus‐containing bismaleimide (3,3′‐bis(maleimidophenyl) ­phenylphosphine oxide; BMPPPO) were prepared by simultaneously curing epoxy/diaminodiphenylmethane (DDM), and BMPPPO. The resulted epoxy resins were found to exhibit glass transition temperatures as high as 212 °C, thermal stability at temperatures over 350 °C, and excellent flame retardancy with Limited oxygen index (LOI) values around 40. Incorporation of BMPPPO into epoxy resins via the thermosetting blend was demonstrated to be an effective way to enhance the thermal properties and flame retardancy simultaneously.

Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and immunochromatographic strip for rapid detection of atrazine in water samples

We have developed a heterologous direct competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and a colloidal gold-based immunochromatographic (ICG) strip for the determination of the herbicide atrazine in water samples. The ELISA had a half-maximum inhibition concentration (IC₅₀) of 0.12 ng mL^?1 and a limit of detection (LOD, calculated as the IC₁₅ value) of 0.01 ng mL^?1. The average of recoveries for all spiked water samples was 96.5%. There was a good correlation between the data determined by this ELISA and those obtained by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) (r ² ?=?0.996). The visual LOD of the ICG strip assay was 2 ng mL^?1. The assay process only took 10 min, and no sample pretreatment was required. Its high specificity, sensitivity and fast detection made the strip well suited for on-site screening of atrazine in water samples. Both the ELISA and the ICG strip assay are useful for rapid analysis of a large number of water samples at low cost.
