Carbohydrate-protein interactions at interfaces: comparison of the binding of Ricinus communis lectin to two series of synthetic glycolipids using surface plasmon resonance studies

Two C-lactosyl lipids and the related C-galactosyl lipids have been synthesised and their binding to RCA120 plant lectin was compared with a second series of thiolactosylethoxyalkanes. The interactions were measured quantitatively in real time by surface plasmon resonance (BIAcore) at a range of concentrations and temperatures from 5 to 30 degrees C. The C-galactosyl lipid (1,3-dimethyl-5-[beta-D-galactopyranosyl]-5-(4-octadecyloxybenzyl)pyrimidine-2,4,6-trione) bound much more weakly with a K(A) = 8.86 x 10(5) than the corresponding C-lactosyl lipid (1,3-dimethyl-5-[beta-D-galactopyranosyl-(1 --> 4)-beta-D-glucopyranosyl]-5-(4-octadecyloxybenzyl)pyrimidine-2,4,6-trione) (K(A) = 2.31 x 10(7)). The influence of the linker region of the two different series of lactosyl lipids was clearly demonstrated by the differences in the binding to RCA120 lectin. The changes in kinetic values and in the enthalpic and entropic contribution to the free energy of binding reflected the importance of the linker and the hydrocarbon anchor holding the synthetic glycolipids in the neomembrane.     

Synthesis of polycyclic structures by the Diels-Alder reaction of inner-outer-ring 1,3-bis(trimethylsilyloxy)dienes

A Diels-Alder reaction of novel inner-outer-ring 1,3-silyloxydienes 5-8 with a variety of dienophiles to afford highly functionalized polycyclic structures is reported. The inner-outer-ring 1,3-silyloxydienes 5-8 containing five- to seven-membered carbocyclic and heterocyclic rings were prepared in a single reaction vessel from 2-acetylcyclocarbonyls in quantitative yields. The Diels-Alder reaction with 1,4-benzoquinone (BQ), dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate (DMAD), and methyl vinyl ketone (MVK) proceeded smoothly at room temperature, affording functionalized polycyclic naphthols, phenols, and enones with high regioselectivity and good yields (39-75%). Moreover, dienes 5-8 also reacted in a hetero-Diels-Alder reaction with benzaldehyde (BA) and N-benzylideneaniline (NBA) in the presence of catalytic amounts of ZnCl2, affording substituted polycyclic pyranones and pyridinones in good yields (40-93%). Overall, our synthetic strategy provides straightforward access to an interesting set of polycyclic structures useful for natural and nonnatural product synthesis.     

Conclusive evidence of the trapping of primary ozonides

[reaction: see text] Anomalous ozonolysis of strained bicyclic allylic alcohols yields alpha-hydroxymethyl ketones. The proposed mechanism involves an unusual trapping of the primary ozonide that undergoes a Grob-like fragmentation instead of dissociating into the Criegee intermediates.     

Determination of lithium in human serum by electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry

An efficient method was developed for the determination of nanogram levels of lithium in biological samples. Serum samples from human subjects from southeastern Spain, treated or not treated with lithium carbonate, were analyzed by electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry. The samples were previously treated with a matrix modifier consisting of 0.1% Triton X-100 and injected through a graphite tube with L'vov platform. The Li concentrations measured by the procedure described for the 3 certified reference samples used were not significantly different (p > 0.05) than certified levels. Sample recoveries and variability during several days, with coefficients of variation from 4.00 to 14.8%, demonstrated the reliability and accuracy of this technique. Mean Li concentration determined in the serum of individuals with psychiatric disorders treated with Li (n = 117, 5.077 +/- 1.795 microg Li/mL) was significantly higher (p < 0.001) than that in individuals not treated with Li (n = 24, 1.902 +/- 2.054 ng Li/mL).     

Diels-Alder versus heterodiene reaction: The effect of acid catalysis.

The difference between thermal, AlCl₃- and CF₃ COOH-catalyzed reaction of (E)-4-benzal-1-phenyl-5-pyrazolone and 2,3-dimethylbutadiene is discussed in terms of Diels-Alder $\text{versus}$ heterodiene reactivity.     

Depolarization and fine structure effects in half collisions of sodium-noble gas systems

Population ratios and polarization of the Na3P _J fine structure states following far wing photon excitation of Na-noble gas collision pairs are studied with respect to the underlying interaction potentials and molecular coupling schemes. For this purpose spectral profiles of these quantities, i.e. its dependencies on excitation frequency, have been measured up to ±200 cm^?1 detuning from the NaD lines for NaAr and NaHe under nearly single collision conditions. Comparing the measured population ratios with quantummechanical coupled channels calculations the Σ potential well depths differ considerably from results of model potential calculations. Large residualJ=3/2 alignment observed in the far wings disagrees with simple models assuming incoherent excitation and/or full adiabatic reorientation of the radiating dipole along straight trajectories. By comparison with Lewis model calculations, using realistic trajectories and decoupling radius, it is found instead, that realistic trajectories are constitutive for alignment after Σ-excitation (blue wing), whereas coherence between the²Π_1/2 and²Π_3/2 states determine primarily alignment after Π-excitation (red wing).     

Separation and detection of oxidation products of fluorodeoxyglucose and glucose by high-performance liquid chromatography-electrospray ionisation mass spectrometry

2-Deoxy-2-[18F]fluoro-D-glucose ([18F] FDG), the most popular positron emitting radiopharmaceutical, may oxidise by autoradiolysis in aqueous solution. The aim of this work was to use LC-MS for determination of the oxidation products of fluorodeoxyglucose and glucose (Glc) obtained by oxidation with Fenton's reagent. Asahipak NH2P-50 polyamide silica column and acetonitrile-0.025% aqueous ammonium formate (80:20 (v/v)) eluent were utilised with an Agilent 1100 HPLC-MS instrument. Ten major oxidation products of FDG and Glc were separated and identified by mass spectrometry: 2-fluorogluconic acid, 2-fluoroglucuronic acid, 2-oxoerythronic acid, arabinose, arabonic acid, araburonic acid, erythrose, erythrulose, gluconic acid, and glucuronic acid. The most intensive electrospray ionisation signals were found in the negative ion spectra and were due to HCOO- adducts, the other acids being in their lactone forms.     

Unsymmetrical diaryl sulfones through palladium-catalyzed coupling of aryl boronic acids and arylsulfonyl chlorides

[reaction: see text] A simple and efficient method for the synthesis of unsymmetrical diaryl sulfones using the palladium-catalyzed coupling of aryl boronic acids and arylsulfonyl chlorides has been developed. High product yields, a short reaction time, and mild reaction conditions are important features of this method.     

Synthesis,structure, and dynamic behavior in solution of arylamino-1,3,5-triazines

Ten unsymmetrically substituted arylamino-1,3,5-triazines were synthesized and studied by dynamic NMR spectroscopy. The free energies of the hindered rotation ΔG^≠?are in 59–77 kJ mol^{? 1} range. Using difference-mode NOE NMR experiments, the structures of the major and minor rotation isomers were proved. The DFT B3LYP/6-31G* calculations were performed. The difference between the calculated rotation barriers and the experimental values obtained by line shape analysis is less than 7.6 kJ mol^?1. The height of the rotation barrier varies in a 18 kJ mol^?1 range depending on the substituents in the triazine ring.
