Ligand–macromolecule complexes: affinity index determination by selective nuclear relaxation analysis

Proton NMR selective and non-selective spin–lattice relaxation rate measurements were used to monitor the strength of the overall complexation behaviour of a ligand (carbamazepine) toward a macromolecular receptor (albumin). The ‘affinity index,’ a quantitative parameter related to the strength of the ligand–macromolecule interaction, was determined from the experimental contribution of the bound ligand molar fraction to the observed selective spin–lattice relaxation rate. The effect of a second ligand (lamotrigine) on the carbamazepine–albumin interaction was also investigated and was found to have a modulation effect on the carbamazepine–albumin interaction.

用元素分析、红外光谱、紫外光谱、荧光光谱和核磁等分析手段对合成出的1.0G树枝状大分子-水杨醛席夫碱钯配合物(PAMAMSAPd)进行了表征。用其作为催化剂,研究了碘代苯与丙烯酸在有机溶剂中的偶联反应。对于碘代苯与丙烯酸的偶联反应,最佳反应条件为:惰性气氛,10mmol PhI,nPhI∶nAA∶nEt3N=1∶1.5∶2.5,3.0×10-3g PAMAMSAPd, 4mL DMF和100°C的反应温度。在该条件下,产物肉桂酸的产率可达96.5%。该树枝状大分子配合物是一种无磷、高效和稳定的Heck反应催化剂。且该催化剂经简单的过滤、溶剂洗涤进行回收,重复使用3次,产率仍能达到90.2%。     

Non-covalent dendrimer-based liquid crystalline complexes: Synthesis and characterization

The synthesis and structural characterization of dendritic macromolecules based on 3,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid are described. The molecular structures and purity of all new compounds were confirmed by ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR spectroscopy and elemental analysis. The dendritic non-covalent liquid crystalline complexes were prepared through the formation of hydrogen bonds between different generation of dendritic acids (proton donor) and stilbazole derivative containing bipyridyl units (proton acceptor). We found that, the hydrogen-bonded dendritic liquid crystals supramolecules (G1-2py, G2-2py and G3-2py) exhibits nematic and semectic phase. The polarizing optical microscopy (POM) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) were used for investigation of the liquid crystalline properties of the hydrogen-bonded dendritic supramolecular complexes.     

Synthesis of a halo-methylphenylene periphery-functionalized triazine-based dendritic molecule with a 3,3′-dimethyl-biphenyl linker using tris(halo-methylphenylene)triazines as building blocks

A tris(bromo-methylphenylene)triazine and its corresponding phosphine oxide derivative have been synthesized; the latter compound was found to be a potent ligand for the hydroformylation reaction. Suzuki coupling of the mono-pinacolboronate derivative of the former compound with a tris(iodo-methylphenylene)triazine was possible at two of the three iodine atoms, yielding a bromo- and iodo-methylphenylene periphery-functionalized triazine-based dendritic molecule with a 3,3′-dimethyl-biphenyl linker.

Conformations of isolated ampholytic dendrimers in solutions

We study the conformations of isolated trifunctional ampholytic dendrimers in solutions. For the previously homo-dendrimer case studied in the literature, we discuss the issues of density profiles, the existence of a cavity, backfolding, bond stretching and scaling laws for the dendrimer size across the good-to-poor solvent transition. We then consider the effect of introducing monomer charges in the outermost generation opposite to those in the interior generations in an electrically neutral overall ampholytic co-dendrimer.     

树形大分子基药物传输系统结合强度及构型的分子动力学研究

采用全原子分子动力学方法系统研究了聚酰胺(PAMAM)型树形大分子非共价搭载4种抗癌药物分子(CE6,DOX,MTX及SN38)的药物传输复合体系.考察了药物分子种类、数量及树形大分子的代数和聚乙二醇化表面修饰对复合体系的结合强度、尺寸及溶剂中扩散行为的影响.研究发现,PAMAM自身变形能对药物-PAMAM间的结合有重要影响.搭载较多的药物分子可以使PAMAM自身增大,但同样搭载条件下经过聚乙二醇化修饰过的PAMAM变化并不明显.PAMAM分子表面的聚乙二醇化可以更高的强度结合更多的药物分子,并减缓其扩散速度,因而提高药物分子的搭载效率和体内滞留时间.为新型树形大分子基药物传输体系的设计提供理论依据.     

Synthesis and characterization of high Tg carbazole-based amorphous hole-transporting materials for organic light-emitting devices

Novel hole-transporting materials based on carbazole dendrimers, namely G1CBC and G2CBC were synthesized and characterized. They are thermally stable with high glass transition temperatures (T_g) up to 245 °C and exhibit chemically-stable redox processes. Double-layer green OLEDs using these materials as the hole-transporting layer (HTL) with the device configuration of ITO/HTL/Alq3/LiF:Al emit brightly (λ_em 522-534 nm) from the Alq3 layer with a maximum luminance and low turn-on voltage of 15,890 cd/m² and 3.0 V, respectively. Their ability as HTLs in terms of device performance is comparable to the common hole-transporter N,N′-diphenyl-N,N′-bis(1-naphthyl)-(1,1′-biphenyl)-4,4′-diamine (NPB), however their thermal properties were far greater than both NPB and N,N′-bis(3-methylphenyl)-N,N′-bis(phenyl)benzidine (TPD).     

Synthesis of new dendrimers—trimesic acid derivatives

The efficient synthesis of new dendrimeric polyesters up to generation 3 that consist of 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid building blocks with potential applications in drug delivery is described. The dendrimers possess hydroxy or allyl functional groups on the surface and were prepared through a divergent approach using readily available 2-(hydroxymethyl)-2-ethylpropan-1,3-diol and 1,3,5-benzenetrimethanol as central cores, with 3,5-bis[(allyloxy)methyl]benzoic acid being an essential unit of the dendrimer. The latter compound was synthesized, in high yield, from 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid, applying selective hydrolysis of the corresponding triester as the key step.
