5-氨基-1,10-菲咯啉：可异构化杂环螯合荧光载体作为比例计量型锌离子荧光探针的一种原型

5-amino-l,10-phenanthroline （5-AP）, as a tautomeric heterocyclic aromatic chelating fluorophore （THACF）, can sense Zn^2＋ selectively by shifting emission from 495 to 564 nm upon Zn^2＋ addition in ethanol. The ratiometric fluorescent sensing behavior has been correlated to the tautomerization of 5-AP affected by solvents and metal chelation. The strategy using THACF as ratiometric fluorescent sensor for Zn^2＋ not only simplifies the synthetic procedure but also gives a promising alternative for Zn^2＋ ratiometric fluorescent sensor design.     

Real-time measurement of nitric oxide using a bio-imaging and an electrochemical technique

Nitric oxide (NO) is an important mediator responsible for numerous physiological phenomena. Transient levels of NO in biological systems usually range from nanomolar to micromolar concentrations, with a rapid return to basal levels normally seen following these increases. Because NO can diffuse only over a local area in limited time due to such low levels of production and due to its short life-time prior to degradation, high spatial and temporal resolutions are required for direct and continuous NO measurement if the physiological role of NO is to be investigated in any system. For such purposes, analytical methods based on bio-imaging and electrochemical techniques for the measurement of NO are useful. In this paper, we describe the successful application of these methods to a number of biological systems. Specifically, complementary application of these methods demonstrate that it is possible to detect real-time NO production from nervous tissue with high spatial and temporal resolutions.     

Fluorescent Molecular Recognition and Sensing System of Bis-Dansyl Modified γ-Cyclodextrins

Flexible hosts, 6A,6B-; 6A,6C-; 6A,6D-; and 6A,6E-bis dansylglycine-modified -cyclodextrins (-1, -2, -3, and -4, respectively) have been synthesized as a sensing molecule for organic guests including terpenoids and bile acids. These host compounds show a pure monomer fluorescence whose intensity is decreased or enhanced upon addition of guest species. The value I/I₀, where I and I₀ are fluorescence intensities in the presence and absence of a guest and I is I₀- I, was used as a parameter of sensitivity. These hosts exhibit highly sensitive and selective molecular recognition ability, particularly, for lithochoic acid, chenodeoxycholic acid, and ursodeoxycholic acid. The behaviors of the appended moieties of these hosts when host–guest complexation occurs are studied by induced circular dichroism (ICD) spectra and fluorescence spectral change on accommodation of a guest. The ICD pattern of these hosts alone or on accommodation of a guest is very similar, indicating that the behavior of the appended moieties are very similar. The guest-induced variations in the fluorescence or ICD intensity suggest that the appended moieties act as a hydrophobic cap that enables the cyclodextrin to form 1 : 1 host–guest complexes.

Configuration of MFI-type zeolite interacting with the probe molecule P(CH<Subscript>3</Subscript>)<Subscript>3</Subscript> – a theoretical study

With P(CH₃)₃ as the probe molecule adsorbed on titanium silicalite (TS-1) zeolite, the special and important role of T12 site in MFI-type zeolite was clearly elucidated. There are altogether three active sites present in TS-1 zeolite with Ti at the T12 site. Owing to the preferential adsorption of probe molecules on the first Brönsted acidic site, the Ti12 center will probably fail to show Lewis acidity. The ionic [HP(CH₃)₃]⁺ species can be stabilized by the first or second Brönsted acidic site, with the former energetically favored. The latter was formed through the transfer of the ionic [HP(CH₃)₃]⁺ species from the first to the second Brönsted acidic site.     

The electronic structure of molecules by a many-body approach

The vertical valence ionization potentials of cyclopropane, ethylene oxide and ethylene imine are calculated by a many-body Green's function method. For C₃H₆ the ordering of the ionization potentials is 2e(), 1e(), 2a₁(), 1a₂(), 1e(). The assignment of the 2a₁ and the 1a₂ ionization potentials which has been controversial is thus clarified. The ordering is in agreement with the result obtained via Koopmans' theorem. For ethylene oxide and ethylene imine Koopmans' theorem fails in predicting the correct order of ionic states. For C₂H₄O the ordering of the ionization potentials is 2b ₁(), 4a ₁, 1a ₂(), 2b ₂,3a ₁, 1b ₁(), 1b ₂, 2a ₁ and for C₂H₅N 6a, 5a, 3a, 2a, 4a, 3a, 1a, 2a. The agreement of the computed ionization potentials with the experimental values is very satisfactory.     

Separation of fluorescent 1,N6 ethenoderivatives of diadenosine polyphosphates and their enzymatic degradation products by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography

Summary The retention, selectivity and elution order of fluorescent 1,N⁶-etheno derivatives of diadenosine polyphosphates and their enzymatic degradation products on octadecyl and phenyl-bonded silica columns have been studied as a function of mobile phase pH, ionic strength and organic modifier content. Good separations of the compounds of interest were achieved using mobile phases of around 0.1M potassium phosphate buffers at neutral pH containing approximately 10% methanol or 4% acetonitrile for C₁₈ columns and 5% methanol or 1.5% acetonitrile for phenyl columns. The data obtained were used to establish isocratic assays for diadenosine polyphosphate cleaving activities from chromaffin cells using Di(1,N⁶-ethenoadenosine) polyphosphates as fluorogenic substrate analogues followed by fluorescence detection.     

GRECP/MRD‐CI calculations on the Hg atom and HgH molecule

Multireference single‐ and double‐excitation configuration interaction (MRD‐CI) calculations of transition energies for the Hg atom and spectroscopic constants for the HgH molecule are carried out with the generalized relativistic effective core potential (GRECP) method. A new selection criterium for the reference configurations is discussed. The calculated spectroscopic constants are compared with experimental data and results of calculations of other groups. Improvement of accuracy is mainly observed for bond lengths from the GRECP/MRD‐CI calculations (without applying the T = 0 correction) with respect to the results of other groups. Analysis of the quality of the approximations employed is carried out. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Int J Quantum Chem, 2002
