cis-2,3-Dimethylaziridine reacts with difluoroamine to give the corresponding alkene and nitrogen with retention of configuration. We have carried out a DFT study of this reaction to clarify the reaction mechanism by considering a multistep reaction pathway with possible intermediacy of several three- and four-membered cyclic intermediates and transition states (TSs). The energetics of this reaction shows that the reaction takes place in four steps including a three-membered azamine intermediate. Both the energetics and the stereochemical outcome of this reaction rule out the formation of a four-membered diazetine intermediate during the reaction. Although the first N-N bond formation step is rate determining, the final step, asynchronous concerted cleavage of the azamine intermediate, explains the stereochemistry of this reaction. The asynchronous nature of the final step makes the reaction Woodward-Hoffmann allowed, as reported by Yamabe and Minato (J. Phys. Chem. A 2001, 105, 7281). Computations at HF and MP2 levels confirm the same trends in energetics. Single point energy computations at B3LYP, MP2, and QCISD levels with the 6-311++G(d,p) and cc-pVTZ basis sets show that the larger basis sets predict higher free energies of activation and less negative free energies of reaction. Intrinsic reaction coordinate (IRC) analyses reveal the asynchronous nature of the first and the last steps of the reaction. The deamination of trans-2,3-dimethylaziridine was shown to follow a course of reaction similar to that of the cis isomer. 相似文献
We have successfully developed a ‘turn-on’ colorimetric chemosensor for Fe3+ based on 1,10-phenanthroline. An amide derivative of 1,10-phenanthroline 4 was developed for the selective recognition of Fe3+ over Co2+, Cr3+, Cu2+, Mn2+, Ni2+, Ag+ and Zn2+ and could measure Fe3+ concentration in the range of 15–210 μM by UV–vis spectroscopy. Moreover, the addition of Fe3+ to a colourless solution of 4 turned its colour to light pink, indicating that 4 is capable of detecting Fe3+ by the naked eye. Compound 4 exhibits a major absorption band centred at 268 which shifted to 278 nm after addition of Fe3+, and a shoulder band around 514 nm was also observed. The complexation of Fe3+ with 4 was analysed at a different pH and favourable binding was observed at pH 6.2. 相似文献
Many different fuzzy implication operators have been proposed; most of them fit into one of the two classes: implication operations that are based on an explicit representation of implication A → B in terms of &, , and ¬ (e.g., S-implications that are based on the formula B ¬ A), and R-implications that are based on an implicit representation of implication A → B as the weakest C for which C&B implies A. However, some fuzzy implication operations (such as ba) cannot be naturally represented in this form. To describe such operations, we propose a new (third) class of implication operations called A-implications whose relation to &, , and ¬ is described by (implicit) axioms. 相似文献
This paper describes a new support that permits to efficient immobilization of L-asparaginase (L-ASNase). For this purpose, Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles were synthesized and coated by MCM-41. 3-chloropropyltrimethoxysilane (CPTMS) was used as a surface modifying agent for covalent immobilization of L-ASNase on the magnetic nanoparticles. The chemical structure; thermal, morphological, and magnetic properties; chemical composition; and zeta potential value of Fe3O4@MCM-41-Cl were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), differential thermal analysis (DTA), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), scanning electron microscope (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray (EDX), X-ray diffraction patterns (XRD), and zeta-potential measurement. The immobilization efficiency onto Fe3O4@MCM-41-Cl was detected as 63%. The reusability, storage, pH, and thermal stabilities of the immobilized L-ASNase were investigated and compared to that of soluble one. The immobilized enzyme maintained 42.2% of its original activity after 18 cycles of reuse. Furthermore, it was more stable towards pH and temperature compared with soluble enzyme. The Michaelis–Menten kinetic properties of immobilized L-ASNase showed a lower Vmax and a similar Km compared to soluble L-ASNase. Immobilized enzyme had around 47 and 32.5% residual activity upon storage a period of 28 days at 4 and 25 °C, respectively. In conclusion, the Fe3O4@MCM-41-Cl@L-ASNase core–shell nanoparticles could successfully be used in industrial and medical applications.
In this study, a series of unsymmetrically 2-morpholinoethyl-substituted benzimidazolium salts and their Ag(I)NHC complexes were synthesized. The 1,3-dialkylbenzimidazolium salts (1a–d) were synthesized in dimethylformamide at 80 °C temperature from the N-(2-morpholinoethyl)benzimidazole and alkyl halides. The Ag(I)NHC complexes (2a–d) were synthesized in dichloromethane at room temperature from the benzimidazolium salts and Ag2O. All compounds were characterized by spectroscopic techniques (NMR and FT-IR) and elemental analyses. Also, the salt 1c and complex 2c were characterized by single-crystal X-ray crystallography. Anticancer activities of 2-morpholinoethyl-substituted benzimidazolium salts and Ag(I)NHC complexes were investigated against the MCF-7 breast cancer cell line, and the IC30 and IC50 values of these compounds were found to be in the range of 241–490 and 6–14 µM, respectively. 相似文献
Twenty open-chain mono-, di-, and trialkyl and aryl-N-substituted cyanomalonamides R2R1NCOCH(CN)CONHR3 were prepared. In solution, signals for both amide and a single enol are mostly observed, despite the potential for E and Z isomeric enols. The equilibrium (KEnol) values between the amides and the enols were determined in different solvents by NMR spectra. They decrease on increasing the polarity of the solvent in the order CDCl3 approximately C6D6>THF-d8>(CD3)2CO>CD3CN>DMF-d7>DMSO-d6. For the R1R2NCOCH(CN)CONHR3 system when R1=R2=H, Me or R1=H, R2=Me, KEnol for R3 follows the order: C6F5>Ph>or=An>or= i-Pr>or= t-Bu, and for R1, R2:H, H>Me, H>Me, Me in all solvents. A unique feature is the appreciable % enol in DMSO-d6 when R1=R2=H, in contrast with enol systems with other electron-withdrawing groups (EWGs). Calculations (B3LYP/6-31G**) corroborate the higher KEnol values for less alkyl-substituted systems, showing that in the most stable conformer when R1=H, R2=R3=Me the N-hydrogens are closer to the CN group. The order of promoting substituents for enol of amide formation is CONH2>CO2CH2CF3>CO2Me>CONHMe. The solid-state structures of the isolated species, determined by X-ray crystallography, were either amides or enols, and a higher KEnol(CDCl3) value does not ensure a solid enol structure. In no system were both solid species isolated. The X-ray structures of the enols were temperature-dependent. In most cases, the difference between the O-H and O...H bond lengths at low temperature were appreciable, but they become closer at the higher temperature. Similar tendency for either the C=C/C-C or the C-O/C=O bonds was observed. This is ascribed to a hydrogen shift between two regioisomeric enols in an asymmetric double-well potential, which becomes faster at a higher temperature. Calculations show that the enol structures are nonsymmetrical, resembling the lower temperature structures, even when they are chemically symmetrical, but the energy differences between the two regioisomers are <1 kcal. The hydrogen bonds in the enol moiety are strong, with O...O distances <2.45 A, and are resonance-assisted hydrogen bonds. IR spectra in solution and the solid state qualitatively corroborate the NMR and X-ray structure determination. 相似文献
The mathematical model of sludge particles settling in the water treatment plant (settler) is considered. In the case of the residence time of sludge particles in the settler the model leads to a nonlinear age-dependent transport–diffusion with a nonlocal additional condition. This problem is formulated as an identification/optimal control problem, where the sludge concentration is assumed to be a control. For the case of constant (“average”) velocity, as a characterization of the optimal control problem two necessary conditions are obtained. These conditions permit reducing the nonlinear coupled two-dimensional problem to the two-point boundary value problem for the second order nonlinear ordinary differential equation, and then, to a nonlinear equation, with respect to sludge concentration. For the solution of the problem an iteration algorithm is derived. Convergence of the iteration algorithm is analyzed theoretically, as well as on test examples. The numerical procedure for the considered problem is demonstrated on concrete examples. 相似文献
Linear free energy relationship (LFER) and kinetic isotope effects (KIEs) are frequently used experimental means to study reaction mechanisms, in particular the nature of transition states (TSs). Density functional theory (B3LYP/6-311+G**) calculations were carried out on a model reaction, acid-catalyzed ionization of phenylethyl alcohol, to analyze how experimentally observable properties, such as nonlinearity in the Hammett and Br?nsted relations and variation in KIE, are related to a variation of the transition state structure and the mechanism. Several conclusions and insights were obtained: (1) Linear Hammett plots with a dual parameter treatment may not be evidence for an invariable TS structure for a series of reactions. (2) Variations of KIEs indeed reflect the variations of TS structures. (3) Nonlinear Br?nsted plots cannot always be taken as evidence for a stepwise mechanism. (4) A TS structure in the gas phase may change much more easily than a TS structure in solution. 相似文献
