Determination of thermodynamic functions of sorption for cyclohexyl-, piperidyl-, morpholyl-, and thiomorpholyl-n-alkanes by capillary gas-liquid chromatography

The values of partial molar free energy (G), enthalpy (H), and entropy (S) of sorption in the homologous series ofN-alkylpiperidines,N-alkylmorpholines,N-alkyl thiomorpholines, and alkylcyclohexanes were determined. It was found that the free energy of sorption is determined to a greater extent by the enthalpy term than by the entropy one. The free energy of sorption of the first homolog decreases when then-alkyl chain is attached directly to the carbon atom of the cycle and increases in the case ofN-alkylsubstituted heterocycles. The influence of the heteroatom nature on intermolecular interactions of homologs with the nonpolar stationary phase was quantitatively estimated on the basis of thermodynamic data.Dead time necessary for calculation of the retention factor was determined by the retention of methane injected into the column simultaneously with the sample.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Calculation of vertical ionization potentials of difluoramine by perturbation corrections to koopmans' theorem

The vertical ionization potentials of difluoramine are calculated by perturbation corrections to Koopmans' theorem. The calculation shows that difluoraimine has three overlapping bands between 15 and 16 eV. The calculated results compare well with the experimental values. The photoelectron spectrum of difluoramine is compared with that of OF₂ and CH₂F₂.     

Determination of Partial Molar Volumes of EPA and DHA Ethyl Esters in Supercritical Carbon Dioxide

The use of supercritical fluids (SCFs) as solvents has been attracting widespread interest in the research and commercial applications. The study of partial molar volumes of solutes at infinite dilution in the near-critical region is of considerable fundamental importance, as these data reflects the interactions occurring between the solute and the solvent. Experimental measurements of partial molar volumes may be divided into two categories: direct and indirect methods. The direct methods…     

Heterogeneous Catalytic Partial Oxidation of C3-C4 Alkanes with Nitrogen Monoxide

The possibility of making products of partial oxidation, alcohols and acids in particular, by the reaction of C₃-C₄ alkanes with nitrogen monoxide over oxide and zeolite catalysts is demonstrated. The most effective catalysts are CeO₂ and Fe-TsVK. The dependence of the rate and selectivity of the process on the reaction conditions has been established.     

Lecithin/propanol-based microemulsions used as media for a cholesterol oxidase-catalyzed reaction

Reverse micelles, Winsor III and IV systems were examined as reaction media for the enzymatic conversion of cholesterol to cholestenone by cholesterol oxidase at 298.2 K. The micelles and the microemulsions, stabilized by soybean lecithin and ethanol or 1-propanol as cosolvent, were characterized with respect to phase behavior and distribution of 1-propanol between the phases of the Winsor III systems. The used oils were dodecane, tetradecane, and hexadecane. The Winsor IV systems and the surfactant-rich phase in the Winsor III systems exhibit bicontinuous structures. The reaction yield for the enzymatic conversion performed in a Winsor IV system was much higher than in a Winsor III system or in reverse micelles.     

An <Emphasis Type="BoldItalic">in silico</Emphasis> approach for screening flavonoids as P-glycoprotein inhibitors based on a Bayesian-regularized neural network

Summary P-glycoprotein (P-gp), an ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter, functions as a biological barrier by extruding cytotoxic agents out of cells, resulting in an obstacle in chemotherapeutic treatment of cancer. In order to aid in the development of potential P-gp inhibitors, we constructed a quantitative structure–activity relationship (QSAR) model of flavonoids as P-gp inhibitors based on Bayesian-regularized neural network (BRNN). A dataset of 57 flavonoids collected from a literature binding to the C-terminal nucleotide-binding domain of mouse P-gp was compiled. The predictive ability of the model was assessed using a test set that was independent of the training set, which showed a standard error of prediction of 0.146 ± 0.006 (data scaled from 0 to 1). Meanwhile, two other mathematical tools, back-propagation neural network (BPNN) and partial least squares (PLS) were also attempted to build QSAR models. The BRNN provided slightly better results for the test set compared to BPNN, but the difference was not significant according to F-statistic at p = 0.05. The PLS failed to build a reliable model in the present study. Our study indicates that the BRNN-based in silico model has good potential in facilitating the prediction of P-gp flavonoid inhibitors and might be applied in further drug design.     

Unraveling the mystery of efficacy in Chinese medicine formula: New approaches and technologies for research on pharmacodynamic substances

Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is the key to unlock treasures of Chinese civilization. TCM and its compound play a beneficial role in medical activities to cure diseases, especially in major public health events such as novel coronavirus epidemics across the globe. The chemical composition in Chinese medicine formula is complex and diverse, but their effective substances resemble “mystery boxes”. Revealing their active ingredients and their mechanisms of action has become focal point and difficulty of research for herbalists. Although the existing research methods are numerous and constantly updated iteratively, there is remain a lack of prospective reviews. Hence, this paper provides a comprehensive account of existing new approaches and technologies based on previous studies with an in vitro to in vivo perspective. In addition, the bottlenecks of studies on Chinese medicine formula effective substances are also revealed. Especially, we look ahead to new perspectives, technologies and applications for its future development. This work reviews based on new perspectives to open horizons for the future research. Consequently, herbal compounding pharmaceutical substances study should carry on the essence of TCM while pursuing innovations in the field.     

Thermodynamic evaluation of a partial charge model assumptionfor the dissolved silica system

The Partial Charge Model was developed to predict the hydroxylation, polymerization, and precipitation of ions. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the Partial Charge Model for describing the polymerization of silica in aqueous solutions. The Partial Charge Model predicts the stability of ions and complexes based on the assumption that the stable species will have the same electronegativity as the mean electronegativity of the solution. The silica system was chosen for model validation because of the rare availability of self-consistent thermodynamic data on many dissolved but polymerized silicate anions, including both linear and cyclical species. The electronegativity of each species was calculated using the Partial Charge Model and the results were plotted against the stability constants for the ions. The silicate anions segregated into groups on the plot based on the number of charges per silicon atom in the polymer. Plots of the log of the stability constant versus the change in electronegativity produced a linear relationship for the silica polymers containing one negative charge per silicon atom, which resulted in an r ² of 0.9978. Thus, the Partial Charge Model successfully describes the thermodynamics of silica polymerization in aqueous solution for species that are sufficiently alike, but was not accurate for all silica species.
