A Novel Synthesis of (-)-10-epi-α-Cyperone

The eudesmane derivative, (-)-10-epi-α-cyperone 1, is widely used as a chiral starting material for the synthesis of other fused-ring sesquiterpenes1. The first synthetic work was reported by Howe and co-workers via condensation of (+)-dihydrocarvone 2 with 1-diethylaminopentan-3-one methiodide in 32% yield2. Previously, our group reported the synthesis of compound 1 by treating ketone 2 with ethyl vinyl ketone (EVK) directly under different conditions1a, but the yields were not satisfacto…

Determination of human IgG by solid-substrate room-temperature phosphorescence immunoassay based on an antibody labeled with nanoparticles containing rhodamine 6G luminescent molecules

Luminescent 50-nm silicon dioxide nanoparticles containing both types of rhodamine 6G (R; particles denoted R-SiO₂) were synthesized by the sol–gel method. In the presence of Pb(Ac)₂ as a heavy atom perturber the particle can emit the intense and stable room-temperature phosphorescence (RTP) signal of R on a polyamide membrane, with _ex^max/_em^max=470/635 nm for R. Our research indicates that the specific immune reaction between goat-anti-human IgG antibody labeled with R-SiO₂ and human IgG can be carried out quantitatively on a polyamide membrane, and the phosphorescence intensity was enhanced after the immunoreaction. Thus a new method for solid-substrate room-temperature phosphorescence immunoassay (SS-RTP-IA) for determination of human IgG was established on the basis of antibody labeled with the nanoparticles containing binary luminescent molecules. The linear range of this method is 0.0624–20.0 pg spot^–1 of human IgG (corresponding to a concentration range of 0.156–50.0 ng mL^–1, sample volume 0.40 L spot^–1). The regression equations of the working curves are I_p=71.27+7.208m_IgG (pg spot^–1) (r=0.9996). Detection limits calculated as 3S_b/k are 0.022 pg spot^–1. Compared with the same IA using fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) as the marker the new method was more sensitive and had a wider linear range. After elevenfold replicate measurement RSD are 4.5 and 3.6% for samples containing 0.156 and 50.0 ng mL^–1 IgG, respectively. This method is sensitive, accurate, and of high precision.     

Thermally-induced order-order transition of DNA-cationic surfactant complexes

Polyanionic DNA interacts with cationic amphiphiles to form electrostatic complexes exhibiting rich self-assembled structures. This type of complex has been considered as a nonviral carrier in gene therapy and as a template for nanostructure construction. Here we report a thermally-induced phase transition of the complexes of DNA with the mixtures of a cationic surfactant, dodecyltrimethyl bromide (DTAB), and a neutral lipid, dioleoylphosphatidylethanolamine (DOPE), in fully hydrated state. An order-order transition between a multilamellar (L(c)alpha) phase and an inverted hexagonal (H(c)II) phase was found to occur with the transition temperature adjustable by the DTAB-to-DNA base pair molar ratio (x) and DOPE-to-DTAB molar ratio (m). The stability of the L(c)alpha phase was enhanced at lower m and x, as the L(c)alpha-to-H(c)II transition temperature increased with the decreases of these two parameters. The suppression of -to- transition at lower x was attributed to the lower entropic gain from the counterion release due to the presence of uncomplexed DNA in the bulk solution.     

Thermal diffusion of dilute aqueous NH4Cl,Me4NCl,Et4NCl,n-Pr4NCl,andn-Bu4NCl solutions at 25°C

The Soret effect (thermal diffusion) of dilute aqueous solutions of NH₄Cl, Me₄NCl, Et₄NCl, n-Pr₄NCl, and n-Bu₄NCl has been investigated potentiometrically using the silver, silver chloride thermocell. The molar entropies (heats) of transport have been derived from the initial and final thermoelectric powers. The concentration dependence of the entropy of transport has been examined and the effect of the ionic size on the heat of transport is discussed. The molar entropy of tetrabutylammonium chloride exhibits a sharp minimum in the neighborhood of 0.002M, the reason of which is as yet unclear.     

库仑—新极谱电分析法

恒电流库仑滴定时无论用电位法或是用电流法指示终点,恒电流都会影响指示信号的观测;用新极谱分析法指示恒电流库仑滴定终点,同样受恒电流干扰,为了判断滴定终点,需多次断电停止滴定,观测峰高。本文提出根据两次间隔滴定观测到的峰高获得分析结果的方法。
