A Photophysical Study of Terphenyl Core Oligosulfonimide Dendrimers Exhibiting High Steady‐State Anisotropy

The photophysical properties of three dendrimers containing a p‐terphenyl core with appended sulfonimide branches of different size and n‐octyl chains have been investigated in dichloromethane solution. In the dendrimer absorption spectra contributions from both the branches and the core are clearly identified. The fluorescence spectra show only the characteristic fluorescence of the terphenyl unit. Energy transfer from the appended chromophoric groups to the core does not occur. In the dendrimers, the terphenyl core exhibits a very high fluorescence quantum yield (ca. 0.75) and a short emission lifetime (0.8 ns). These properties allowed investigations of the fluorescence depolarization caused by rotation of the dendrimers. The dendrimers show a very high steady‐state anisotropy in dichloromethane solution at room temperature (0.24 for the largest one), compared to that of the parent terphenyl under the same experimental conditions (<0.01) and in rigid matrix (0.33). Both the n‐octyl chains and the sulfonimide branches play important roles to slow down the molecular rotation.

A new reaction of organolithium compounds with phosphonium salts is described; reaction of t-butyllithium with dibenzylaminophosphonium or tetraphenylphosphonium bromides takes place through addition of the t-butyl group on a benzene ring at the position para to the phosphorus atom, the ylid formed reacts in a characteristic Wittig reaction with p-tolylaldehyde.     

Development of new solid-phase microextraction fibers by sol-gel technology for the determination of organophosphorus pesticide multiresidues in food

Allyloxy bisbenzo 16-crown-5 trimethoxysilane was first used as precursor to prepare the sol-gel-derived bisbenzo crown ether/hydroxyl-terminated silicone oil (OH-TSO) SPME coating. The coating procedure involving sol solution composition and conditioning process was presented. Compared with commercial SPME stationary phases, the new coatings showed higher extraction efficiency and therefore could provide higher sensitivity for organphosphorous pesticides (OPs). Limits of detection (LODs) were in the range of 0.003-1.0 ng/g for these OPs in food samples (honey, juice, orange and pakchoi). The optimal extraction conditions of the new coatings to OPs in these samples were investigated by adjusting extraction time, salt addition, extraction temperature, and dilution ratios of samples with distilled water by using SPME coupled with gas chromatography (GC)-flame photometric detection (FPD). The method was applied to determine the concentrations of OPs in real samples.     

Two-dimensional catena–polymer [[[bis (µ-aqua)(bis (µ-cpiap-K2O1:O2)sodium(I))] (µ-chlorido) bis(µ-cpiap-K5N1:O1:O2:O3,O3′)dicopper(II)]bis(µ-aqua)(aqua)bis(cpiap-K2O1,O2)copper(II)] hexa hydrate

The new title two-dimensional hetero-tetra nuclear Cu₃–Na coordination polymer {[NaCu₃Cl(cpiap)₂(H₂O)₃]_n·6nH₂O} (1) consists of crystallographically two-independent copper(II) centers, each bridged by a sodium cation through carboxylate-oxygen of the deprotonated H₃cpiap ligand (H₃cpiap = 2-(carboxyphenyl)iminoaceticpropanoic acid) to Cu^II (2) and Cu^II (2⁻) cations, and through water molecules to Cu^II (1) cation. Cu^II (2) and Cu^II (1) cations are bridged by carboxylate-oxygen atoms of the ligand in a syn-anti mode which, alternate regularly within the chain being bridged by a tetra coordinated sodium cation. Each Cu^II (2) and Cu^II (2⁻) cation in (1) is in an octahedral environment formed by four carboxylate-oxygens from two cpiap³⁻ ligands, one nitrogen atom and a bridging chloride atom. Cu^II (1) cation is in a square pyramidal environment formed by three water molecules and two carboxylate-oxygens from two cpiap³⁻ ligands. The ligand acts simultaneously as monodentate and tridentate toward Cu^II (1) and Cu^II (2) cations respectively. The lattice water molecules involved in OH···O hydrogen bonding are situated in the void spaces between layers. The zigzag chains, which run along the b-axes further construct three-dimensional metal-organic framework via hydrogen bonding and weak face-to-face π-π interactions. Weak CH···O interactions are also present.

Profiling fatty acids in vegetable oils by reactive pyrolysis-gas chromatography with dimethyl carbonate and titanium silicate

A novel methodology in on-line pyrolysis-gas chromatography (Py-GC) for the fast analysis of fatty acids in vegetable oils with minimal sample treatment and the use of non-toxic reagents is described. Pyrolysis at 500 degrees C for 10 s of sub-microgram quantity of vegetable oil dissolved in dimethyl carbonate (DMC) and in the presence of nanopowder titanium silicon oxide resulted in the production of fatty acid methyl esters (FAMEs) as unique products. Pyrolysis performed by means of a resistively heated filament pyrolyser interfaced to a GC-MS apparatus enabled the direct analysis of evolved FAMEs. The DMC/Py-GC-MS analysis was tested on soybean, coconut, linseed, walnut and olive oil and the results compared to the classical BF(3)-methanol as reference methodology. The DMC method exhibited a lower precision and was biased towards lower levels of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) in comparison to the BF(3)-methanol method, but was more advantageous in terms of reduced sample treatment, waste generation and risk factors of employed chemicals.     

Ligand-protein docking using a quantum stochastic tunneling optimization method

A novel hybrid optimization method called quantum stochastic tunneling has been recently introduced. Here, we report its implementation within a new docking program called EasyDock and a validation with the CCDC/Astex data set of ligand-protein complexes using the PLP score to represent the ligand-protein potential energy surface and ScreenScore to score the ligand-protein binding energies. When taking the top energy-ranked ligand binding mode pose, we were able to predict the correct crystallographic ligand binding mode in up to 75% of the cases. By using this novel optimization method run times for typical docking simulations are significantly shortened.
