Synthesis of isotopically labeled arachidonic acids to probe the reaction mechanism of prostaglandin H synthase

Prostaglandin H synthase (PGHS) catalyzes the conversion of arachidonic acid to prostaglandin G(2) in the cyclooxygenase reaction. The first step of the mechanism has been proposed to involve abstraction of the pro-S hydrogen atom from C13 to generate a pentadienyl radical spanning C11-C15. We report here the synthesis of six site-specifically deuterated arachidonic acids to investigate the structure of the radical intermediate. The preparation of these compounds was achieved using a divergent scheme that involved one advanced intermediate for all targets. The synthetic design introduced the label late in the routes and allowed the utilization of common synthetic intermediates in the preparation of various targets. Both 13(R)- and 13(S)-deuterium-labeled arachidonic acids were synthesized in high enantiomeric purity as deduced from soybean lipoxygenase assays and mass spectrometric analysis of the resulting enzymatic products. Each synthetic compound was reacted under anaerobic conditions with the wide singlet tyrosyl radical of PGHS-2 to generate a radical intermediate that was analyzed by EPR. Deuterium substitution at positions 11, 13(S), and 15 resulted in the loss of one hyperfine interaction, indicating that the protons at these positions interact with the unpaired electron. Simulation of the spectra was achieved with one set of parameters that are consistent with the assignment of a pentadienyl radical. Use of 16-[(2)H(2)]-arachidonic acid indicated that only one of the protons at C16 gives rise to a strong hyperfine interaction. The findings are discussed in the context of two proposed mechanisms for the cyclooxygenase reaction.

Oligomerization and Polymerization of Ethylene Initiated by a Novel Ni(Ⅱ)-Based Acetyliminopyridine Complexes as Single-Site Catalysts

Novel Ni(Ⅱ)-based acetyliminopyridine complexes 1b, 2b, 3b (1-3b), which are synthesized from ligands 1a, 2a, 3a (1-3a) and [NiCl2(DME)], are suitable precursors for the catalysts that are necessary for ethylene oligomerization and polymerization reactions, activated by methylaluminoxane (MAO). The MAO-treated 1-3b presents an active catalytic center, which may oligomerize and polymerize ethylene to produce linearα-olefins and polyethylene, respectively. The molecular weight distributions of oligomers that are obtained are in good agreement with the Schulz-Flory rules for oligomers>C4. The activity of 3b-MAO complex is 6.3×107 g/(molNi·h) at 50℃. The activities and molecular weight distributions of oligomers show significant reliance on the structures of catalyst precursors.     

Co-C bond dissociation energy and reaction volume change of 2',5'-dideoxyadenosylcobalamin studied by laser-induced time-resolved photoacoustic calorimetry

Time resolved photoacoustic calorimetry (PAC) was applied to a study of the photolysis of a coenzyme B(12) analog 2',5'-dideoxyadenosylcobalamin, which lacks an -OH group at the 2' position of ribofuranose ring. In aqueous solution, we report for the first time the quantum yield Phi(d) (0.25+/-0.02), Co-C bond dissociation energy (BDE; 31.8+/-2.5 kcal mol(-1)) and reaction volume change deltaV(R) (6.5+/-0.5 ml mol(-1)) due to conformation changes of the corrin ring and its side chains accompanying the cleavage of the Co-C bond. These values for the analog are very similar to those for the natural cofactor. Based our results and previous studies, a possible explanation for the similarity in their structure and properties versus the large difference in their enzymatic activity is discussed.

Vibrational Spectroscopic Study on Ion Solvation and Association of Lithium Perchlorate in 4-Methoxymethyl-ethylene Carbonate

Solvation interaction and ion association in solutions of lithium perchlorate/4-methoxymethyl-ethylene carbonate （MEC） have been studied by using Infrared and Raman spectra as a function of concentration of lithium perchlorate. The splitting of ring deformation band and ring ether asymmetric stretching band, and the change of carbonyl stretching band suggest that there should be a strong interaction between Li^＋ and the solvent molecules, and the site of solvation should be the oxygen atom of carbonyl group. The apparent solvation number of Li^＋ was calculated by using band fitting technique. The solvation number was decreased from 3.3 to 1.1 with increasing the concentration of LiClO4/MEC solutions. On the other hand, the band fitting for the ClO4^- band revealed the presence of contact ion pair, and free ClO4^- anion in the concentrated solutions.
