Synthesis of fused imidazo-pyridine and -azepine derivatives by sequential van Leusen/Heck reactions

Fused imidazo-pyridine and -azepine derivatives were synthesized using a sequential van Leusen/intramolecular Heck protocol. The combination of a multicomponent reaction followed by an intramolecular carbon-carbon bond forming reaction generates heterocycles of significant molecular complexity from readily available starting materials in just two steps.     

Synthesis of novel fused isoxazoles and isoxazolines by sequential Ugi/INOC reactions

We report the synthesis of novel fused isoxazoles and isoxazolines by employing an unprecedented Ugi/INOC synthetic sequence. The coupling of the Ugi multicomponent reaction with the intramolecular N-oxide cyclization provides access to unique heterocyclic ring systems in two steps from easily available starting materials in moderate to good overall yields.     

Stimuli‐Responsive Theragrippers for Chemomechanical Controlled Release

We report on a therapeutic approach using thermo‐responsive multi‐fingered drug eluting devices. These therapeutic grippers referred to as theragrippers are shaped using photolithographic patterning and are composed of rigid poly(propylene fumarate) segments and stimuli‐responsive poly(N‐isopropylacrylamide‐co‐acrylic acid) hinges. They close above 32 °C allowing them to spontaneously grip onto tissue when introduced from a cold state into the body. Due to porosity in the grippers, theragrippers could also be loaded with fluorescent dyes and commercial drugs such as mesalamine and doxorubicin, which eluted from the grippers for up to seven days with first order release kinetics. In an in vitro model, theragrippers enhanced delivery of doxorubicin as compared to a control patch. We also released theragrippers into a live pig and visualized release of dye in the stomach. The design of such tissue gripping drug delivery devices offers an effective strategy for sustained release of drugs with immediate applicability in the gastrointestinal tract.

抗坏血酸和尿酸在甘氨酸-壳聚糖修饰玻碳电极上的电化学行为及测定

制备了甘氨酸-壳聚糖复合膜修饰玻碳电极(Gly-CTS/GCE),研究了抗坏血酸(AA)和尿酸(UA)在该修饰电极上的电化学行为。结果表明在pH=5.59的磷酸盐缓冲溶液中,AA、UA在Gly-CTS/GCE上均产生灵敏的不可逆氧化峰,其峰电流与浓度在一定范围内呈良好的线性关系。对AA和UA混合溶液平行测定7次,相对标准偏差分别为4.6%、2.9%,表明该电极重现性和稳定性良好。AA、UA在Gly-CTS/GCE电极上的氧化峰峰电位相差340mV,据此可实现对二者的同时检测,并可应用于实际样品测定。
