New understanding of aconitine hydrolysis pathway: Isolation,identification and toxicity evaluation based on intermediate products

Aconitine hydrolysis is deemed to be the guarantee for the safe application of Aconitum phytomedicine. Studies have suggested that hydrolysates of aconitine not only include benzoylaconitine and aconine, but other hydrolysates. Moreover, these hydrolysates maybe have a mutual transformation relationship, which has not been confirmed. Herein, hydrolysates of aconitine and their mutual transformation relationship were studied by the theoretical quantum chemistry, UPLC-Q-TOF-MS, the separation and identification of target products, etc. Then the toxicity of its hydrolysates was evaluated. The results demonstrate that the probability is the same for aconitine hydrolysis to pyroaconitine and benzoylaconitine, but they are difficult to convert to each other. Aconitine hydrolysis has three independent hydrolysis pathways, 1) to indaconitine, 2) to benzoylaconitine, and aconine, 3) to pyroaconitine and to 16-epi-pyroaconine. The result of embryotoxicity evaluation on zebrafish was aconitine > indaconitine > benzoylaconitine > α-pyroaconitine > β- pyroaconitine > aconine > 16-epi-pyroaconine. In conclusion, aconitine have three independent hydrolysis pathways and the hydrolysates of different pathways cannot be transformed into each other. Pyroaconitine is a hydrolysate of aconitine except for benzoylaconitine, and its toxicity is lower than benzoylaconitine. More importantly, it clarifies the long-standing debate and provides scientific evidence for the processing and detoxification of Aconitum phytomedicine.

Sol hydrolysis and condensation reaction time influence the sensitivity of class II xerogel-based sensing materials

Simplicity of preparation, a wide variety of precursors, and numerous processing variables (e.g., pH, time, temperature) are often described as attractive aspects of sol–gel derived materials. In the current work we create a series of O₂-responsive xerogel-based sensor films by simultaneously co-hydrolyzing and co-condensing tetramethylorthosilane and n-octyltriethoxysilane. Tris(4,7′-diphenyl-1,10′-phenanthroline) ruthenium(II) ([Ru(dpp)₃]²⁺) is used as the O₂-responsive luminophore. We determine the effects of [Ru(dpp)₃]²⁺ addition time to the sol and the sol hydrolysis and condensation reaction time (H&C) on the xerogel film O₂ sensitivity. [Ru(dpp)₃]²⁺ addition time has no significant effect on the O₂ sensitivity; H&C effects the O₂ sensitivity. The highest O₂ sensitivity is seen at early H&C (0.5 h). This behavior arises because TMOS and C8-TMOS react at different rates to form sols. At early H&C the co-hydrolysis and co-condensation reactions are not complete and the so formed sols are rich in C8-TMOS in comparison to their composition at longer H&C. At longer H&C, the TMOS and C8-TMOS co-hydrolyze and co-condense more completely. SEM images show that xerogel films formed at early H&C is more porous in comparison to those formed a longer H&C. The results of these experiments: (a) highlight the importance of documenting how sols are processed and xerogels formed and (b) demonstrate the use of a single sol formulation and H&C to create suites of sensor materials with different responses.     

Theoretical Studies on Mechanism and Rate Constant of Gas Phase Hydrolysis of Glyoxal Catalyzed by Sulfuric Acid

The gas phase hydration of glyoxal (HCOCHO) in the presence of sulfuric acid (H2SO4) were studied by the high-level quantum chemical calculations with M06-2X and CCSD(T) theoretical methods and the conventional transition state theory (CTST). The mechanism and rate constant of the ve di erent reaction paths are consid-ered corresponding to HCOCHO+H₂O, HCOCHO+H₂O H₂O, HCOCHO H₂O+H₂O, HCOCHO+H₂O H₂SO₄ and HCOCHO H₂O+H₂SO₄. Results show that H₂SO₄ has a strong catalytic ability, which can signi cantly reduce the energy barrier for the hydration reaction of glyoxal. The energy barrier of hydrolysis of glyoxal in gas phase is lowered to 7.08 kcal/mol from 37.15 kcal/mol relative to pre-reactive complexes at the CCSD(T)/6-311++G(3df, 3pd)//M06-2X/6-311++G(3df, 3pd) level of theory. The rate constant of the H₂SO₄ catalyzed hydrolysis of glyoxal is 1.34×10^-11cm³/(molecule s), about 10¹³ higher than that involving catalysis by an equal number of water molecules, and is greater than the reaction rate of glyoxal reaction with OH radicals of 1.10×10^-11cm³/(molecule s) at the room temperature, indicating that the gas phase hydrolysis of glyoxal of H₂SO₄ catalyst is feasible and could compete with the reaction glyoxal+OH under certain atmospheric condi-tions. This study may provide useful information on understanding the mechanistic features of inorganic acid-catalyzed hydration of glyoxal for the formation of oligomer

Precipitation of monodispersed basic iron(III) sulfate (sodium jarosite) particles

Uniform sodium jarosite particles were obtained by forced hydrolysis of ferric salt solutions to which copper sulfate, sodium sulfate, and sodium nitrate were added. It was found that at the same concentrations of ferric and sulfate ions the particle size and yield decreased with the lowering of the concentration of sodium ions, but the morphology remained the same. At a sufficiently small content of sodium in the reacting solution, no precipitation of sodium jarosite particles was observed. Finally, chemical and XRD analyses showed that small amounts of copper ions are incorporated in the crystal lattice which, with the change in the Na⁺/H₃O⁺ ratio, slightly affected the structure of this mineral, but not its other properties.

Kinetics of the acid hydrolysis of isoproturon in the absence and presence of sodium lauryl sulfate micelles

Kinetics of the hydrolysis of isoproturon by hydrochloric acid has been studied spectrophotometrically in the absence and the presence of anionic sodium lauryl sulfate (NaLS) micelles. The anionic micelle was found to increase the rate of reaction. The reaction followed first-order kinetics with respect to isoproturon and was linearly dependent upon [HCl]. In both aqueous and micellar pseudophases, the reaction was started with the protonation of the amino group of isoproturon followed by attack of water to yield phenylcarbamic acid and the corresponding amine, thus obeying the addition–elimination mechanism. The surfactant decreased the activation entropy. The binding constant in consistence with the rate constants was evaluated on the basis of pseudophase ion-exchange model. The added salts (NaCl and KCl) decreased the rate of reaction due to the exclusion of H⁺ from micellar surfaces.     

Ammonia Catalyzed Hydrolysis-Condensation Kinetics of Tetraethoxysilane/Dimethyldiethoxysilane Mixtures Studied by <Superscript><Emphasis Type="Bold">29</Emphasis></Superscript>Si NMR and SAXS

In-situ ²⁹Si liquid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) was used to investigate the ammonia catalyzed hydrolysis and condensation of the mixed systems of tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) and dimethyldiethoxysilane (DDS) dissolved in methanol. With ammonia catalysis, the hydrolysis reaction orders for TEOS and DDS in the mixed systems remained first order, which is similar to that observed for their corresponding single silane component precursor systems. The hydrolysis rate constant for TEOS in the mixed systems was larger than that of TEOS in the single silane component precursor systems. Meanwhile, the hydrolysis rate constants of DDS in the mixed precursor systems were smaller than those of DDS in the single silane component precursor systems. The hydrolysis and condensation kinetics showed more compatible hydrolysis-condensation relative rates between TEOS and DDS, which remarkably affected the final microstructure of the resulting silica particles. Small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) experiments showed a typical double fractal structure in the particulate networks.
