Poly(L‐lactic acid‐co‐glycolic acid) (PLGA) was prepared from hydroxy‐acids with melt polymerization. In this way, the copoly(L‐LA/GA) (PLGA) was synthesized directly using a binary catalyst (tin chloride dihydrate/p‐toluenesulfonic acid). The thermal properties of PLGA were studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). The results show that the melting point of PLGA decreases with increasing mole fraction of GA units in the copolymer. In addition, the melting point of polymer also decreases with increasing degree of racemization of the polymer. 相似文献

We have developed a method for in-situ construction of a porous network-like silver film on the surface of a glassy carbon electrode (GCE). It is based on a galvanic replacement reaction where a layer of copper nanoparticles is first electrodeposited as a sacrificial template. The silver film formed possesses a porous network-like structure and consists of an assembly of numerous nanoparticles with an average size of 200 nm. The electrode displays excellent electrocatalytic activity, good stability, and fast response (within 2 s) toward the reduction of nitrate at a working potential of −0.9 V. The catalytic currents linearly increase with the nitrate concentrations in the range of 0.08–6.52 mM, with a detection limit of 3.5 μM (S/N = 3) and a repeatability of 3.4 % (n = 5).
Computational studies to determine the origin of enantioselectivity in the (1R,2R)-1,2-diphenylethane-1,2-diamine (DEPN)–Brønsted acid catalyzed epoxidation of 2-cyclohexen-1-one have been performed using density functional theory. Transition states for conjugate addition and ring closure steps of the epoxidations catalyzed by three different catalyst systems were characterized. Our calculations show that the Csp2H?O H-bond interaction between the benzene ring of the catalyst and H2O is mainly responsible for the chiral discrimination observed. The Brønsted acid counterion plays a very important role in ensuring high enantioselectivity by improving the rigidity of the transition state structures to allow the efficient formation of the Csp2H?O H-bond. Moreover, we explain why these two diamine catalysts (1S,2S)-DACH and (1R,2R)-DPEN display consistent enantioselectivities in the catalytic epoxidation of 2-cyclohexen-1-one when combining with three different cocatalysts; achiral TFA, and chiral (R)- and (S)-TRIP. 相似文献
A series of 3,3′-(4-arylpyridine-2,6-diyl)bis(2H-chromen-2-one) derivatives have been synthesized by the one-pot, three-component reaction of 3-acetylcoumarin, an aromatic aldehyde, and ammonium acetate in acetic acid under microwave irradiation. This procedure has the major advantages of short reaction time, good yields, low energy consumption, easy operation, and environmental friendliness. All of the products were characterized by IR and NMR spectroscopy, MS, and elemental analysis. 相似文献
The β-mannanase gene (1,029 nucleotide) from Bacillus subtilis MAFIC-S11, encoding a polypeptide of 342 amino acids, was cloned and expressed in Pichia pastoris. To increase its expression, the β-mannanase gene was optimized for codon usage (mannS) and fused downstream to a sequence-encoding modified α-factor signal peptide. The expression level was improved by 2-fold. This recombinant enzyme (mannS) showed its highest activity of 24,600 U/mL after 144-h fermentation. The optimal temperature and pH of mannS were 50 °C and 6.0, respectively, and its specific activity was 3,706 U/mg. The kinetic parameters Vmax and Km were determined as 20,000 U/mg and 8 mg/mL, respectively, representing the highest ever expression level of β-mannanase reported in P. pastoris. In addition, the enzyme exhibited much higher binding activity to chitin, chitosan, Avicel, and mannan. The superior catalytic properties of mannS suggested great potential as an effective additive in animal feed industry. 相似文献
Graphene-nanosheet-based highly porous magnetite nanocomposites (GN-HPMNs) have been prepared using a simple solvothermal method and used as an immobilization matrix for the fabrication of a solid-state electrochemiluminescence (ECL) sensor on paper-based chips. Highly porous Fe3O4 nanocrystal clusters were coated with acrylate and wrapped tightly on the skeleton of graphene nanosheets. The structures and sizes of the GN-HPMNs could be tuned by varying the proportions of the solvents ethylene glycol and diethylene glycol. Then, the relatively highly porous ones with an average diameter of about 65 nm were combined with Nafion to form composite films on an electrode surface for immobilization of Ru(bpy)32+ (bpy is 2,2′-bipyridine). Because of their porosity, negatively charged surface, and cooperative characteristics of magnetic nanomaterials and graphene, under an external magnetic field, the GN-HPMNs ensured effective immobilization, excellent electron transfer, and long-term stability of Ru(bpy)32+ in the composite film. The sensor developed exhibited excellent reproducibility with a relative standard deviation of 0.65 % for 30 continuous cycles. It was found to be much more favorable for detecting compounds containing tertiary amino groups and DNAs with guanine and adenine. A detection limit (signal-to-noise ratio of 3) of 5.0 nM was obtained for tripropylamine. As an application example, 0.5 nM single-nucleotide mismatch could be detected. This was the first attempt to introduce magnetic nanomaterials and an external magnetic field into paper-based chips. The sensor developed has the advantages of high sensitivity, good stability, and wide potential applicability as well as simplicity, low cost, and good disposability.

A series of 1-(benzylamino)-2-(2,4-difluorophenyl)-3-(1H-1,2,4-triazol-l-yl)propan-2-ols compounds were synthesized and evaluated for their antifungal activities in vitro.The results showed that compounds 6A and 6B exhibited good antifungal activity.Compound 6A8 showed the strongest antifungal activity,which was significantly higher than that of the lead compounds and positive-control drugs Fluconazole and Itraconazole.In particular,the antifungal activity of compound 6A8 against Candida albicans and Candida krusei(MIC80 both at 0.00097μg/mL) was 515 and 64 times that of Fluconazole,respectively.The structure-activity relationships of the synthesized compounds were discussed,and the docking model of the target compounds with fungal lanosterol 14α-demethylase (CYP51) was analyzed. 相似文献
