α4/7-Conotoxin LvIA is an isoform-selective inhibitor of the α3β2 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor. An efficient strategy for the synthesis of this toxin is critical to advancing its utility as a probe for receptor function and as a potential pharmaceutical lead target. On-resin methods for peptide synthesis offer potential synthetic advantages; however, strategies for on-resin formation of multiple disulfides have historically been low-yielding. Here, we harness the reactivity of the Allocam protecting group and employ a 3-amino acid spacer strategy to synthesize α4/7-conotoxin LvIA via three different on-resin strategies, each of which results in an isolated yield higher than previous fully on-resin approaches. 相似文献
A comparison of kinetic models for dispersion polymerization of MMA and styrene in supercritical CO2 is presented. The limiting case of solution polymerization, as a simplified case, was also addressed. Calculation of the partition of components between the continuous and dispersed phases was emphasized. Experimental data for the solution and dispersion polymerizations of styrene and MMA, using different types of stabilizers, were used to guide the study. Although all the models analyzed can be considered as “adequate” in representing the behavior of the system, some of their strengths and drawbacks have been highlighted.
The production of macroporous monoliths functionalized with a thermo‐responsive polymer (PNIPAAM) is described. The surface functionalization was achieved by copolymerization of acrylic end capped atom transfer radical polymerization initiator (BPOEA) with divinylbenzene with or without styrene. Monoliths were generated by swelling them with styrene, BPOEA and divinylbenzene followed by gelation with salt and post polymerization. Subsequent grafting of these monoliths with PNIPAAM was achieved by atom transfer radical polymerization and their swelling deswelling characteristics quantified. The grafted monoliths provide a unique chromatographic stationary phase where adsorption/desorption can be driven by the use of temperature only.
A wide range of commercial diazodicarboxylates and phosphines were screened in an attempt to find purification-free conditions for application in parallel synthesis. The combination of immobilized triphenylphosphine and TMAD proved to be suitable for the synthesis of aryl ethers via the Mitsunobu reaction. Nine ethers were synthesized in good yield and excellent purity, the purification being limited to a filtration step. 相似文献
Commercial polystyrene (PS) has been studied as a modifier for commercial poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) when it was submitted to gamma irradiation. PVC/PS blends were prepared with 100/0, 95/05 and 90/10 compositions. Results for gamma-irradiated (60Co) blends are reported and changes in viscosity-average molar mass (Mv) were analyzed. The study showed that the addition of PS into PVC decreased by 73% (95/05) and 79% (90/10) the number of scissions/100 eV in the dose range of 25-100 kGy. Viscosity analyses by the Pan et al. criterion and analyses of FT-IR spectra in the C-Cl vibration region showed negligible intermolecular interactions between the components of PVC/PS blends. However when the films of blends were irradiated to 50 kGy, certain intermolecular interactions were observed by the viscosity method. The addition of PS to PVC and the main scission effect induced by gamma irradiation decreased crosslink density of blends causing changes in the elongation of break and Young's modulus. 相似文献
In this chemical recycling process, spent FCC catalyst used had an advantage with an economical and environment aspect, such as a low catalyst price in liquid-phase reaction and a reuse of waste catalyst. The characteristics of oil product and its aromatic product distribution, as a function of reaction time in the reactor and also proportion of HDPE and PS in the mixture, were compared. Main products obtained were light hydrocarbons within the gasoline range that were mainly produced during initial reaction time. The formation of aromatic products such as styrene and ethylbenzene as major components depended appreciably on the reaction time, as well as the composition of HDPE and PS in the mixture used for degradation. For the distribution of C9-C12 alkylaromatic components as by-products, methylstyrene (C1-styrene) and isopropylbenzene (C3-benzene) components were the main products formed by β-scission and hydrogen transfer of PS, while the rest of alkylaromatic products showed very low fraction being 1% or less. 相似文献
A review on developments of liquid membranes (LMs) in the field of gas and vapor separation of the last 16 years is presented. Liquid membrane configurations employing supports, i.e. immobilized, supported and contained liquid membranes are focussed and detailed information on the respective materials, i.e. supports (supplier, type, thickness, pore width, porosity, tortuosity), liquids and carriers, are presented together with their specific separation tasks. Performance of different LMs in terms of permeability and selectivity as well as stability (duration of testing, applied differential pressures) are compared and discussed. Finally, different preparation methods of LMs are illustrated. 相似文献
The voltage-tunable EL was obtained upon cathodic bias of n-type PS in contact with aqueous solution containing the persulphate ion. The EL behavior as a function of the external voltage and time was investigated. The results suggest that the mechanisms of voltage-tunable EL of n-typt PS cannot easily be attributed to quantum confinement effect. 相似文献
Heterojunctions between polyaniline (PANI) and n-type porous silicon (PS), Al/PS-PANI/Au cell,were fabricated, and the rectifying parameters of this heterojunction diode were measured as a function of thepreparation conditions of PANI and PS, the electronic structure of PANI as well as cell structure. Therectifying parameters of Al/PS-PANI/Au cell were determined to be γ= 1 .8×10~1~ 1 .0×10~5 for the rectifyingratio at 3V, n = 3 ~12 for the ideal factor,j_0 = 8.0×10~(-5)~5.6×10~(-2) mA/cm~2 for the reversed saturated currentdensity, and φ_b = 0.67~ 0.83 V for the barrier height, respectively. The best rectifying heterojunction diodemade between PANI and n-type PS with higher rectifying factor (γ= 1 .0×10~5 at 3V ), output current (>1500mA/cm~2 at 3V) and lower ideal factor (n = 3.3) was obtained by preventing the oxidation of PS beforeevaporating Al electrode. 相似文献
