New reagent for the introduction of Boc protecting group to amines: Boc-OASUD

A new reagent, tert-butyl (2,4-dioxo-3-azaspiro [5,5] undecan-3-yl) carbonate (Boc-OASUD) for the preparation of N-Boc-amino acids is described. The Boc-OASUD reacts with amino acids and their esters at room temperature in the presence of a base and gives N-Boc-amino acids and their esters in good yields and purity. Introduction of the Boc group takes place without racemization. The Boc-OASUD, being a solid and more stable, is a better alternative to di-tert-butyl dicarbonate which is low melting and has to be dispensed in plastic containers than glass because of its poor stability.     

Synthesis of functionalized 3-arylpyridazines via Pd-catalyzed decarboxylative cross-coupling of pyridazine-3-carboxylic acids

An efficient and general protocol for the decarboxylative cross-coupling of pyridazine-3-carboxylic acids with aryl-bromides has been described. This method provides a new avenue for the synthesis of 3-arylpyridazines via decarboxylative cross-coupling strategy by employing the dual-catalyst system of Pd(PPh₃)₄/Cu₂O in the presence of Li₂CO₃ at 160 °C in DMA.     

Banana pulp extract mediated synthesis of Cu2O nanoparticles: An efficient heterogeneous catalyst for the ipso-hydroxylation of arylboronic acids

A green and facile novel procedure has been developed for the synthesis of Cu₂O nanoparticles within a very short reaction time using banana pulp extract as a reducing agent. The synthesized nanoparticles are well characterized by SEM (Scanning Electron Microscope), TEM (Transmission Electron Microscope) and powder XRD (X-ray Diffraction) methods. An environmental benign and highly efficient protocol for the ipso-hydroxylation of aryl and hetero arylboronic acids using bio-fabricated Cu₂O nanoparticles as a catalyst and aqueous H₂O₂ as an oxidant has also been developed. The main advantages of this protocol are the base free reaction condition, reusable and heterogeneous catalytic system, and short reaction time with excellent yields.     

Oxalic acid removal from wastewater using multi-walled carbon nanotubes: Kinetic and equilibrium analysis

Oxalic acid adsorption from aqueous solution is studied in this work. Multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) were used as an adsorbent. The investigated adsorption variables are equilibrium time, initial acid concentration, and temperature. The experimental results were presented using equilibrium isotherm and kinetic models. The used equilibrium models are Langmuir, Freundlich, and Temkin adsorption isotherms. And the kinetic models are Elovich, Lagergren pseudo-first-order and pseudo-second-order kinetic models. The thermodynamics studies were carried out at three different temperatures: 278, 298, and 318 K. Langmuir isotherm was the best fitted equilibrium model for the experimental data. The all applied kinetic models fitted the data suitably.

Investigation of pharmacophore and antipharmacophore features of certain dimethyltin(IV) complexes of flexible N‐protected amino acids and fluorinated β‐diketone/β‐diketones

A set of pentacoordinated dimethyltin(IV) complexes of flexible N‐protected amino acids and fluorinated β‐diketone/β‐diketones was screened for their antibacterial activity against Pseudomonas aeruginosa , Staphylococcus aureus and Streptomyces griseus . These pentacoordinated complexes of the type Me₂SnAB (where : R = CH(CH₃)C₂H₅, A₁H; CH₂CH(CH₃)₂, A₂H; CH(CH₃)₂, A₃H; CH₂C₆H₅, A₄H; and BH = R'C(O)CH₂C(O)R″: R′ = C₆H₅, R″ = CF₃, B₁H; R′ = R″ = CH₃, B₂H; R′ = C₆H₅, R″ = CH₃, B₃H; R′ = R″ = C₆H₅, B₄H) were generated by the reactions of dimethyltin(IV) dichloride with sodium salts of flexible N‐protected amino acids (ANa) and fluorinated β‐diketone/β‐diketones (BNa) in 1:1:1 molar ratio in refluxing dry benzene solution. Plausible structures of these complexes were elucidated on the basis of physicochemical and spectral studies. ¹¹⁹Sn NMR spectral data revealed the presence of pentacoordinated tin centres in these dimethyltin(IV) complexes.     

Study on Rhizoma Chuanxiong based on capillary electrophoresis with amperometric detection

<正>A high-performance capillary electrophoresis with amperometric detection(CE-AD) method has been developed for the analysis of seven bioactive ingredients,namely ferulic acid(FA),vanillin,vanillic acid,p-hydroxybenzoic acid,caffeic acid,gallic acid and protocatechuic acid,in Rhizoma Chuanxiong.The effects of several factors such as the acidity and concentration of running buffer,the separation voltage,the applied potential to working electrode and the injection time were investigated.Under the optimum conditions,the seven analytes could be well separated within 21 min at the separation voltage of 16 kV in a 60 mmol/L borax running buffer(pH 8.7).A 300μm diameter carbon disk electrode has a good response at potential of +950 mV(vs.SCE) for all analytes.Good linear relationship was established over three orders of magnitude with detection limits(S/N = 3) ranged from 3.3×10~(-7) to 6.7×10~(-9)g/mL.This proposed method has been successfully applied for the determination and comparison of different batches of Rhizoma Chuanxiong samples based on their characteristic electrochemical profiles.
