Propargyl Amine Synthesis Catalysed by Gold and Copper Thin Films by Using Microwave‐Assisted Continuous‐Flow Organic Synthesis (MACOS)

An effective multi‐component reaction (MCR) protocol has been developed for the construction of propargyl amines from aldehydes, amines and terminal alkynes by using microwave‐assisted continuous‐flow organic synthesis (MACOS). The process is catalysed by thin films of either copper or gold that achieve temperatures in excess of 900 °C when irradiated with low levels of microwave power. The process works equally well for premixed solutions of the three starting materials, or as three separate streams, which improves the combinatorial efficiency of the method. The process tolerates a wide variety of functional groups and heterocycles, and conversion over these diverse substrates ranges from 70–90 %.     

Determination of bisphenol A based on chemiluminescence from gold(III)-peroxymonocarbonate

Peroxymonocarbonate (HCO₄⁻) was produced by the online reaction of bicarbonate with hydrogen peroxide. A strong chemiluminescence (CL) was observed when HCO₄⁻ reacted with AuCl₄⁻ without any special CL reagent. When bisphenol A (BPA) was added to AuCl₄⁻-HCO₄⁻ CL system, the CL emission was inhibited significantly. This new CL system was developed as a flow-injection method for the determination of BPA. Under the optimum experimental conditions, the inhibited CL intensity was linearly related to the concentration of BPA from 0.3 to 80 μM (R = 0.9958). The detection limit of BPA was 0.08 μM. The relative standard deviation for 12 repeated measurements of 1.0 μM BPA was 2.9%. The interferences of some cationic ions can be removed by an online cation-exchange column. The applicability of the present CL system was demonstrated for the sensitive and selective determination of BPA in real samples (mineral water bottle, baby bottle, beverage bottle and polycarbonate container). Based on the CL spectrum, UV-visible adsorption spectra, and the quenching effect of reactive oxygen species scavengers, a possible CL mechanism was proposed.     

Organocatalytic asymmetric synthesis of substituted 3-hydroxy-2-oxindoles via Morita-Baylis-Hillman reaction

We report a highly enantioselective Morita-Baylis-Hillman (MBH) reaction of isatins and acrolein to provide enantiomerically enriched 3-substituted 3-hydroxyoxindoles, which could serve as valuable synthetic building blocks. This is also the first time that a ketone has been used as the electrophile and acrolein as the nucleophile in a highly enantioselective catalytic asymmetric MBH reaction. Hatakeyama's catalyst, β-isocupreidine (1), turned out to be a powerful catalyst for this transformation.     

An Improved Method for the Separation and Quantification of Major Phospholipid Classes by LC-ELSD

An improved HPLC procedure for the separation of phospholipids is described. The method described utilizes a solvent mixture of acetonitrile-methanol–water-trifluoroacetic acid (100:25:1.7:2.5, v/v) as the mobile phase, which is more compatible with the pump than mobile phases containing inorganic acids. Separation was by isocratic elution on a Hypersil silica column coupled to an evaporative light scattering detector. Complete separation of phosphatidylserine (PS), phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), phosphatidylcholine (PC) and sphingomyelin (SM) was achieved in less than 20 min. The detection limits for PS, PE, PC and SM were 50, 50, 80 and 150 ng (S/N = 3), respectively. Human, bovine and porcine erythrocyte ghost membranes and animal tissues have been successfully analyzed for their phospholipid contents.     

Syntheses and Structural Characterization of 1D Chain and 1D Ladder Coordination Polymers Assembled from Exo‐bidentate Imidazolyl Ligands

Five novel coordination polymers, [(Cu(L¹)₂OH) · Cl · 3H₂O] ( 1 ) [L¹ = bis(N‐imidazolyl)methane], [Cd(L¹)₂(NCS)₂] ( 2 ), [Zn(L¹)₂(NCS)₂] ( 3 ), [Cu(L¹)₂(NO₃)₂] ( 4 ), and [Cu(L²)_1.5(NCS)₂] ( 5 ) [L² = 1,4‐bis(N‐imidazolyl)butane] were obtained from self‐assembly of the corresponding metal salts with flexible ligands and their structures were fully characterized by X‐ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, Fourier Transform Infrared (FT‐IR) spectroscopy, elemental analysis and thermogravimetric (TGA) measurements. X‐ray diffraction analyses revealed that complexes 1 , 2 , 3 , and 4 exhibit 1D double‐stranded chain structures, which result from doubly bridged [CuOH], [M(NCS)₂] (M = Cd, Zn), and [Cu(NO₃)₂] units, respectively. The polymeric copper complex 5 displays 1D ladder structure., These complexes, with the exception of complex 1 , are stable up to 300 °C.     

Controllable preparation and fluorescence properties of Y and Eu co-doped mesoporous silica

The controllable preparation and forming mechanism of rare-earth Y³⁺ and Eu³⁺ chemically co-doped fluorescent mesoporous silica were studied in detail. Their structures, morphologies, chemical compositions and emission properties were characterized and evaluated by small angle X-ray scattering, nitrogen adsorption/desorption measurements, high resolution transmission electron microscopy, inductive coupled plasma-atomic emission, X-ray photoelectron spectra and fluorescent spectroscopy. The results show that chemical composition of the resultant mesoporous materials were significantly affected by solution acidity condition, and can be effectively adjusted by varying the feed ratio of raw materials at a suitable solution acidity condition. These materials with a well-ordered two-dimensional hexagonal mesoporous structure and high specific surface area exhibit significantly broadened emission band from 526 to 682 nm and the fluorescent emission mechanism and influence of materials structure on optical properties were investigated.
