A squaraine based fluorescent probe for mercury ion via coordination induced deaggregation signaling

Due to the high affinity between dithiocarbamate(DTC) and Hg2+,a fluorescent probe based on squaraine chromophore with DTC side arm for Hg2+via coordination induced deaggregation signaling has been designed and synthesized.Squaraine has a high tendency to aggregate in aqueous solution,and such self-aggregation usually results in a dramatic absorption spectral broadening with fluorescence emission quenching.The combination of the DTC side arm of the probe with Hg2+induces steric hindrance,leading to the deaggregation of the dye complex,companying with a fluorescence emission restoration.In EtOH–H2O(20:80,v/v) solution,this ‘‘turn on' fluorescent probe has high selectivity and sensitivity toward Hg2+over other metal ions,and the limit of detection for Hg2+was estimated as2.19 ? 10à8mol/L by 3s/k.     

Synthesis, characterization, and reactions of 6,13-disubstituted 2,3,9,10-tetrakis(trimethylsilyl)pentacene derivatives

Pentacene has been actively studied as relevant materials in organic field-effect transistors (OFETs) and organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). However, the low solubility and low stability of pentacene in common organic solvents have hindered its applications. When exposed to light or at high concentration, pentacene is found to dimerize easily. Many research groups are currently working on the design and synthesis of novel substituted pentacenes, but few of them systematically reported physical properties such as molecular spectroscopy and electronic properties, which might elucidate the influence of substituents on HOMO-LUMO gaps. Furthermore, the reactive nature of the central ring in pentacenes makes pentacenes good dienes for Diels-Alder reactions. In this paper, a series of soluble 6,13-disubstituted 2,3,9,10-tetrakis(trimethylsilyl)pentacenes were synthesized and characterized. Their reactions, structures, and physical properties were also studied. In addition, bulky o-carboranyl substituted pentacene derivative 15 and 6-chloro-2,3,9,10-tetrakis(trimethylsilyl)pentacene (16) were synthesized for the first time. Compound 16 possesses the largest dihedral angle (7.7° with two adjacent benzene rings) and shows a wave structure. Diels-Alder reactions with acceptable efficiency were carried out between 16 and various dienophiles.

Novel and Convenient Method for the Preparation of Phosphonate Peptides and Phosphonamidate Peptides

Phosphonate and phosphonamidate peptides are phosphorus analogues of natural peptides. They have been great used as stable mimetics of tetrahedral transition states as enzyme inhibitors and as haptens for catalytic antibody research in recent years. Although several methods are available for the preparation of phosphonate peptides and phosphonamidate peptides, all of them use phosphonic acid derivatives as starting materials. The overall yields from the synthesis of phosphonic acid derivatives to desired peptides are not satisfactory in most cases.     

Analysis of peptides and proteins affinity-bound to iron oxide nanoparticles by MALDI MS

Iron oxide nanoparticles modified with oleate have been employed for the extraction of peptides and proteins from aqueous solution before matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) mass spectrometric (MS) analysis. Adsorption of peptides and proteins onto the nanoparticles were mainly through electrostatic attraction and hydrophobic interaction. The analyte-adsorbed iron oxide nanoparticles could be efficiently collected from solution using a magnet. No elution step was needed. With this preconcentration strategy, the lowest detectable concentration of angiotensin I, insulin, and myoglobin in 500 microL of aqueous solution were 0.1 nM, 0.1 nM, and 10.0 nM, respectively. In addition, the nanoparticles could extract the analytes from solution with a high content of salt and surfactant, thus eliminating suppression effect during MALDI MS analysis. This method was successfully applied to concentrate the tryptic digest products of cytochrome c. In addition, the tryptic digestion of cytochrome c can be directly conducted on the iron oxide nanoparticles.

Perfect digital holographic imaging with high resolution using a submillimeter-dimension CCD sensor

In order to improve the resolution of digital holography with a common-dimension charge-coupled device (CCD) sensor, the point spread functions are briefly derived for the commonly used and practical post-magnification, pre-magnification, and image-plane digital holographic microscopic systems. The ultimate resolutions of these systems are analyzed and compared. The results show that the ultimate lateral resolution of pre-magnification digital holography is superior to that of post-magnification digital holography in the same conditions. We also demonstrate that the ultimate lateral resolution of image-plane digital holography has no correlation with the photosensitive dimension of the CCD sensor, and it is not significantly related to the pixel size of the sensor. Moreover, both the ultimate resolution and the imaging quality of image-plane digital holography are superior to that of pre- and post-magnification digital holographic microscopy. High-resolution imaging, whose resolution is close to the ultimate resolution of the microscope objective, can be achieved by image-plane digital holography even with a submillimeter-dimension sensor. This system, by which perfect imaging can be achieved, is optimal for commonly used digital holographic microscopy. Experimental results demonstrate the correctness of the theoretical analysis.
