The extraction,antioxidant and against β-amyloid induced toxicity of polyphenols from Alsophila spinulosa leaves

Alsophila spinulosa is a tree-like fern, and many evidences suggested that plant polyphenols had the potential therapeutic for Alzheimer s disease (AD). Herein, polyphenols (ASP) was isolated from A. spinulosa leaves and its major constituent were isoorientin and vitexin. ASP displayed excellent antioxidant activity and obvious anti-lipid peroxidation capacity in vitro. ASP improved the survival rate of C. elegans under high temperature by enhancing the antioxidant enzymes activities and decreasing the lipid peroxidation level. Moreover, ASP alleviated β-amyloid (Aβ) induced paralysis and reduced Aβ deposition, decreased reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation and improved the level of skn-1 mRNA. In addition, ASP decreased the levels of pdk-1 and akt-1 mRNA in P13K/AKT signaling pathway. In conclusion, ASP may be a potential ingredient for the alleviation of AD.     

The application of novel methodology for the synthesis of o-, m-, and p-(SF5-perfluoroethyl) benzene derivatives

The reaction of o-, m-, and p-F₂CCFC₆H₄X with SF₅Br produces an intermediate adduct, F₅SCF₂CFBrC₆H₄X, which, on treatment with AgBF₄, affords the first useful, high yield preparation of o-, m-, and p-F₅SCF₂CF₂C₆H₄X.     

New water-soluble calix[4]arene-bis(benzocrown-6) for caesium-sodium separation by nanofiltration-complexation

Calix-bis(benzocrown-6) 6 and 7 were converted into the water-soluble receptors 9, 10, 12 and 15 by introducing hydroxy, carboxy, sulfato or diethanolamino groups at the para position of the phenolic ring and/or on the benzo-ether moieties. The complexation properties of these ionophores were studied for all alkali cations in methanolic and aqueous media. Stability constants were calculated by UV-Vis spectroscopy. All ligands showed a more or less affinity for the larger cations, depending on the nature and the position of the substituents grafted on the benzo-ether chain only or both on the calixarene ring and the benzo-ether loop. For selective Cs⁺/Na⁺ separation, the efficiency of the ligands was evaluated by means of a nanofiltration system. In comparison with the known tetrahydroxylated bis-crown-6 calix[4]arene 1, compounds 9, 12 and 15 represent the most selective ligands for the Cs⁺ cation in a moderate salted medium ([NaNO₃]=85 g/L).     

(Alk-1-ynyl)organylthiocarbenes: generation and reactions with olefins

1-Substituted 1-chloro-3-organylthiopropa-1,2-dienes 1a–f belonging to previously unknown type of allenic compounds were synthesized by chlorination of 1-organylthioalk-1-ynes 3a–f with N-chlorosuccinimide. The reactions of compounds 1a–f with Bu^tOK in hexane at –20 °C are accompanied by -elimination of HCl to give new alk-1-ynyl(organylthio)carbenes 2a–f, which add to olefins to form the corresponding 1-(alk-1-ynyl)-1-organylthiocyclopropanes 5 in yields of up to 60%. The electrophilic properties of carbenes 2 were confirmed experimentally.__________Published in Russian in Izvestiya Akademii Nauk. Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 11, pp. 2440–2447, November, 2004.     

Li ion diffusion in Li4Ti5O12 thin film electrode prepared by PVP sol-gel method

Li₄Ti₅O₁₂ thin films for rechargeable lithium batteries were prepared by a sol-gel method with poly(vinylpyrrolidone). Interfacial properties of lithium insertion into Li₄Ti₅O₁₂ thin film were examined by cyclic voltammetry (CV), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), and potentiostatic intermittent titration technique (PITT). Redox peaks in CV were very sharp even at a fast scan rate of 50 mV s⁻¹, indicating that Li₄Ti₅O₁₂ thin film had a fast electrochemical response, and that an apparent chemical diffusion coefficient of Li⁺ ion was estimated to be 6.8×10⁻¹¹ cm² s⁻¹ from a dependence of peak current on sweep rates. From EIS, it can be seen that Li⁺ ions become more mobile at 1.55 V vs. Li/Li⁺, corresponding to a two-phase region, and the chemical diffusion coefficients of Li⁺ ion ranged from 10⁻¹⁰ to 10⁻¹² cm² s⁻¹ at various potentials. The chemical diffusion coefficients of Li⁺ ion in Li₄Ti₅O₁₂ were also estimated from PITT. They were in a range of 10⁻¹¹-10⁻¹² cm² s⁻¹.     

Synthesis of tripodal aza crown ether calix[4]arenes and their supramolecular chemistry with transition-, alkali metal ions and anions

Tripodal aza crown ether calix[4]arenes, 5a, 5b, 6a and 6b, have been synthesized. The structure of protonated 5a was elucidated by X-ray crystallography to be a self-threaded rotaxane. Complexation studies of 5a and 5b towards anions using Na⁺ as countercation were carried out by ¹H NMR titration in dimethylsulfoxide-d₆ and the mixture of chloroform-d and methanol-d₄, respectively. Ligands 5a and 5b were able to form 1:1 complexes with Br⁻, I⁻ and NO₃⁻ and the complexation stability varied as follows: NO₃⁻>I⁻>Br⁻. The effect of countercation on anion complexation was also investigated. The results showed that the association constants of 5a towards Br⁻ in the presence of various cations varied as K⁺>Bu₄N⁺>Na⁺. The enhancement in anion complexation ability of 5a may result from the rearrangement of the tripodal ammonium unit in the presence of K⁺. The neutral forms, 6a and 6b, were able to form complexes with transition metal ions such as Co²⁺, Ni²⁺, Cu²⁺ and Zn²⁺. The stability of the complexes followed the sequence: Ni²⁺2+Cu²⁺Zn²⁺. Compounds 6a and 6b may, therefore, potentially be used as either transition metal ion or anion receptors that can be controlled by pH of the solution.     

Reaction of γ-nitroketones and methyl 4-nitrobutanoates with formaldehyde and primary amines

5-Nitropentan-2-one reacts with methylamine and formaldehyde according to the Mannich reaction pattern to give 5-hexahydropyrimidinylcarbonyl-substituted 1-nitro-3,7-diazabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane in one experimental stage. When methyl 3-R-4-nitrobutanoates are used, the reaction stops after the formation of substituted 5-nitrohexahydropyrimidines in 40–98% yields. Published in Russian in Izvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Synthesis and Some Chemical Behaviour of Certain Substituted Thiosemicarbazides

Three new thiosemicarbazides (1 a-c ) were prepared from N-[4-phenyl-5-(2-thienyl)-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl]mercaptoacetohydrazide. Reaction of (1 a-c) with the appropriate phenacyl bromide afforded thiazoline derivatives (2 a-i) whereas their reaction with chloroacetic acid or maleic anhydride gave the corresponding thiazolidine derivatives (3 a,b) and (4 a,b) . Cyclodesulfurization of (1 a-c) with DCCD in toluene yielded 5-substituted-amino-1,3,4-oxadiazoles (5 a,b) , while their dehydration with PPA gave the corresponding 5-substituted-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazoles (6 a-c) . Six representative compounds were tested for their in-vitro antimicrobial activity against some pathogenic microorganisms, some of them were proved to be active.
