含氨基酸侧链的有机硅高分子催化剂 ⅩⅤ.γ-(L-酪氨酰胺基)丙基硅氧烷钯催化剂的合成加氢活性及其结构表征

本文报导了四种不同N/Pd摩尔比的聚γ-(L-酪氨酰胺基)丙基硅氧烷钯催化剂的合成及其催化加氢活性,这类催化剂与聚γ-((L-酷氨酸)丙基硅氧烷钯催化剂相比较,虽然均具有类似的N→Pd配位的活性中心组成,但它们对底物的加氢活性则明显不同,前者对丙烯腈、丙烯酸、环己烯和1-癸烯的催化活性比后者高,对苯乙烯则相反。N/Pd摩尔比、反应温度、溶剂以及体系的pH值对催化活性的影响,两者的情况大致相同,标题催化剂对衣康酸的催化加氢,产物的光学纯度为30％。

SO4●－自由基氧化酪氨酸反应中的溶剂效应

研究了水-乙腈混合溶液中SO4●－自由基氧化酪氨酸的反应.实验结果表明，SO4●－自由基氧化酪氨酸的反应机制不因乙腈的加入而改变，但所产生的瞬态粒子的动力学行为受到较大影响.随介质中乙腈体积分数的增加，SO4●－的衰变速率减慢而酪氨酸中性自由基（TyrO●）的衰变速率加快.我们认为这两种自由基所呈现出来的相反的溶剂效应是由于其所带电荷的不同.随介质中乙腈体积分数的增加，SO4●－氧化酪氨酸的反应速率减慢.这一实验结果意味着，在有机溶剂存在的情况下TyrO●/ TyrOH的氧化还原电势可能发生了变化，从而旁证了关于TyrO●/ TyrOH的氧化还原电势因酪氨酸从游离状态变到肽或蛋白质中而发生变化的推测.     

Effects of Self—coiling of Organic Molecules on Intramolecular Exciplex Formation and Fluoresscence Quenching in DX—H2O Solvent System

Effects of self-coiling of organic molecules on intramolecular exciplex formation of compound I,in which the carbazole chromophore and terephthalic acid methylester acceptor group are linked by one (CH2)10 chain,and the decrease of the fluorescence intensities of compounds Ⅱ，Ⅲ，and Ⅳ,in which the carbazole chromophore and 3,5-dinitrobenzoate are connected by one aliphatic chain of (CH2)10 (Ⅱ），（CH2）12（Ⅲ）,or (CH2)4(Ⅳ）,have been studied in the dioxane (DX)-H2O binary system.The results show that self-coiling of organic molecules in DX-H2O facilitates intramolecular exciplex formation of I and induces the decrease of fluorescence intensities of Ⅱ,bacause of the proximity effect brought about by selfcoiling of organic molecules under hydrophobic-lipophilic interaction(HLI) between the excited carbazole chromophore and the acceptor.Since the similar effects are observed even when the concentration of the probes are less than their CAgCs(critical aggregate concentrations )in the DX-H2O mixture with the same φ values,formation of the intermolecular exciplex has been excluded.The effects are found to be strongly depended on φ values,indication that they are mainly driven by HLI.The properties of the acceptors can also affect the intramolecular exciplex formation.With terephthalic acid methylester moiety as the acceptor,the carbazole chromophore exhibits the fluorescence spectra of the exciplex,while with 3,5-dinitrobenzoate moiety as the acceptor,only the fluorescence spectra of excited carbazolyl chromophore are observed.     

藻胆蛋白的Langmuir-Blodgett膜——Ⅰ.R-藻红蛋白单分子膜及蛋白构象变化的研究

测定了R-藻红蛋白(R-PE)在气/液界面上的表面压-面积曲线(tt-A等温线),结果表明R-PE具有很好的成膜性能,且由n-A等温线求得的单分子占有面积与R-PE以盘状形态“平躺”于液面上时的分子占有面积相同。R-PELB膜的透射电子显微镜(TEM)图象和椭圆偏振关于R-PE单分子膜厚度的测定,说明R-PE分子在基片上的取向是其盘平面与基片表面平行。根据这些依据,提出了R-PE单分子膜的结构。将R-PE在气/液界面上形成的单分子膜在适当表面压下用LB技术转移到基片上,测得了蛋白累积单分子膜的吸收及荧光光谱,R-PE单分子膜的吸收和荧光光谱与其在水溶液中无显著差别。膜的CD光谱与R-PE水溶液的CD光谱比较说明,当R-PE成膜后其二级结构发生了变化,即蛋白的p-折叠片构象组分增加。     

THE PREPARATION AND STUDY ON THE NANO-TiO2/SILK FIBROIN COMPOSITE FILMS BY THE SOL-GEL METHOD

Based on the sol-gel technique using butyl titanate as oxide precursor, the regenerated SF (silk fibroin)/nano-TiO2 composite films were synthesized. Different amounts of butyl titanate to SF were used to verify this effect on the characteristics of the formed materials. Samples were characterized by thermogravimetric analysis, X-ray diffractometry, UV, AFM and FT-IR spectroscopy.The experimental results reveal that, compared to the pure silk fibroin films, the mechanical strength of these regenerated SF/nano-TiO2 composite films were increased and the dissolubility in water of SF/nano-TiO2 composite films in aqueous solution were decreased. The diameter of nano-TiO2 particle films was about 80nm through UV and AFM. The nano-TiO2 particles were well dispersed in the regenerated silk fibroin. It was found that the crystal structures of the composite films were transited from typical Silk Ⅰ to typical Silk Ⅱ by the XRD and FTIR. Furthermore, the crystallinity of the composite films was obviously improved. Through the TGA, it was demonstrated that the heat transition temperature of composite films was also enhanced.
