The self-assembled electrode with the homocysteine monolayer (Hcy/Au) has been characterized by infrared spectroscopy and ac impedance spectroscopy in electrolyte. The Hcy/Au electrode is demonstrated to promote the electrochemical response of epinephrine (E) by cyclic voltammetry. A pair of well-defined redox waves was obtained and the calculated standard rate constant (ks) is 2.1×10−2 cm s−1 at the self-assembled electrode. The reduction peak of E can be used to determine the concentration of E in presence of ascorbic acid (AA) owing to the Hcy/Au also promoting the electrochemical oxidation of AA. 相似文献
Yttrium-doped lithium manganese oxide (LiMn0.98Y0.02O2) was prepared by ion exchange of lithium for sodium in NaMn0.98Y0.02O2 precursors obtained by using rheological phase reaction method. This material had small particle size, which was composed of grain size of about 100 nm. Especially, LiMn0.98Y0.02O2 delivered the initial discharge capacity of about 191 mA h g−1 at room temperature when cycled between 2.0 and 4.4 V vs Li/Li+. Moreover, it showed an excellent cycling behavior, its specific capacity remained above 173 mA h g−1 after 20 cycles, and the material did not transform into spinel structure during the electrochemical cycling according to the cyclic voltammograms and X-ray powder diffraction. The electrochemical results revealed that the doping of Y3+ improved the performance of LiMnO2 considerably. 相似文献

The oxidative electrochemistry of 11 chiral bis-phosphinoferrocene ligands, all within the Josiphos class of ligands, was examined in methylene chloride. The oxidation of these ligands displays multiple waves of varying chemical reversibility. Palladium(II) and platinum(II) complexes with the general formula [MCl2(P-P)] (M = Pd or Pt; P-P = Josiphos) were prepared, characterized by NMR and cyclic voltammetry. The electrochemistry simplifies greatly upon coordination of the Josiphos ligands. The X-ray structures of a palladium(II) and platinum(II) complex of the same Josiphos ligand are reported. 相似文献
A bismuth bulk electrode (BiBE), a new solid‐state electrode, is presented. The polycrystalline metal bismuth disk‐shaped electrode was examined for its anodic stripping voltammetry performance, which was found to be well comparable to that achieved with the bismuth or mercury film electrodes. Useful potential windows of the BiBE in aqueous solutions of pH 1 to 13 were found to range from approximately ?1.7 to ?0.1 V, depending on pH, where either hydrogen evolution or anodic dissolution of metallic bismuth limit the electrochemical inertness of the BiBE. Employing cyclic voltammetry (CV), the cathodic behavior of the BiBE was examined by testing inorganic (cadmium(II) ions) and organic (2‐nitrophenol) model compounds; a CV quasi‐reversible behavior was recorded in the case of the Cd(II)‐Cd(0) couple. The characteristics of the BiBE under anodic conditions, i.e., at bismuth surface coated with a thin conductive Bi2O3 film, was examined by testing two well‐established redox systems, potassium hexacyanoferate(III) and ruthenium(III) hexaaminechloride; a nearly reversible behavior was recorded in the latter case. Based on the presented preliminary results, BiBE can be considered as an interesting alternative to common solid and (toxic) mercury electrodes for possible use in electrochemical studies and electroanalytical applications. 相似文献
The conformation of N-glycoproteins and N-glycopeptides has been the subject of many spectroscopic studies over the past decades. However, except for some preliminary data, no detailed study on the vibrational spectroscopy of glycosylated peptides has been published until recently.
This paper reports FTIR spectroscopic properties in DMSO and TFE of the N-glycosylated cyclic peptides cyclo[Gly-Pro-Xxx(GlcNAc)-Gly-δ-Ava] 3a and 3b in comparison with data on the non-glycosylated parent peptides cyclo(Gly-Pro-Xxx-Gly-δ-Ava) 2a and 2b [a, Xxx = Asn; b, Xxx = Gln; δ-Ava = NH-(CH2)4-CO] and N-acetyl 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-β-
-gluco pyranosylamine (GlcNAc-NHAc, 4). The assignment of amide I band frequencies to conformation is based on ROESY experiments and determination of the temperature coefficients in DMSO-d6 solution. (For the synthesis and NMR characterization of 2a and 3a see Ref. [19].)
Cyclic peptides are expected to adopt folded (β- and/or γ-turn) conformations which may be fixed by intramolecular H-bonding(s). A comparison of the temperature coefficients of the NH protons and amide I band frequencies and intensities suggests that in DMSO there is no significant difference in the backbone conformation and H-bond system of the N-glycosylated models and their parent cyclic peptides. The common feature of the backbone conformation of models 2 and 3 is the predominance of a 1 ← 4 (C10) H-bonded type II β-turn encompassing Pro-Xxx or Pro-Xxx(GlcNAc), respectively. The ROESY connectivities in the Asn(GlcNAc) model (3a) have not been found to reflect intramolecular H-bondings between the peptide and the sugar.
The unique feature of the FTIR spectra in DMSO of the cyclic models is the lack or weakness of low-frequency (< 1640 cm−1) amide I component bands. In TFE the amide I region of the FTIR spectra shows an increased number of components below 1650 cm−1 reflecting a mixture of open and H-bonded β- and γ-turn conformers.
Because of its destabilizing effect upon γ-turns and other weakly H-bonded structures, DMSO decreases the number of backbone conformers. DMSO also destroys side-chain-backbone H-bondings of type C7, C6 or C8. Possible ‘glyco’ C7 H-bondings in GlcNAc-NHAc (4) or in glycopeptides 3a and 3b cannot resist the effect of DMSO either.
The FTIR data in TFE of models 2–4 suggest that the acceptor amide group of strong C7 H-bondings in peptides and glycopeptides absorbs at 1630 ± 5 cm−1 and that of bifurcated H-bondings between 1600–1620 cm−1. 相似文献
The preconcentration and voltammetric behavior of BiIII on a sodium humate modified carbon paste electrode was studied by means of cyclic voltammetry (CV) and differential pulse stripping voltammetry (DPSV). The proposed measurement involves an initial nonelectrolytic preconcentration step in which BiIII is complexed by the surface modifier in a solution of 0.05 M KNO3-0.0106 M HNO3 (pH 2.0) and a subsequent electrochemical scan step in which the preconcentrated BiIII was reduced and then oxidized promptly in supporting electrolyte of 0.5 M HNO3. The resulting DPSV anodic current was proportional to the concentration of BiIII ion over the range of 4.78 × 10−8–1.44 × 10−5 M. The detection limit was 4.78 × 10−8 M. The proposed method was used to determine bismuth in various samples. Various factors affecting the electrode behavior were also investigated at the same time. 相似文献
A stereoselective total synthesis of (+)-cylindricine C has been achieved starting with (S)-N-Boc-2-pyrrolidinone. The key elements of this synthesis involve the sequence of reactions including BF3-mediated addition of the allyl Grignard reagent to the cyclic imine, spirocyclization via enamine formation, and intramolecular Michael addition to form the tricyclic core. 相似文献
