Metal‐bound superoxide intermediates are often implicated as electrophilic oxidants in dioxygen‐activating metalloenzymes. In the nonheme iron α‐ketoglutarate dependent oxygenases and pterin‐dependent hydroxylases, however, FeIII–superoxide intermediates are postulated to react by nucleophilic attack on electrophilic carbon atoms. By reacting a CuII–superoxide complex ( 1 ) with acyl chloride substrates, we have found that a metal–superoxide complex can be a very reactive nucleophile. Furthermore, 1 was found to be an efficient nucleophilic deformylating reagent, capable of Baeyer–Villiger oxidation of a number of aldehyde substrates. The observed nucleophilic chemistry represents a new domain for metal–superoxide reactivity. Our observations provide support for the postulated role of metal–superoxide intermediates in nonheme iron α‐ketoglutarate dependent and pterin‐dependent enzymes. 相似文献

Carbon is a highly adaptable family of materials and is one of the most chemically stable materials known, providing a remarkable platform for the development of tunable molecular interfaces. Herein, we report a two‐step process for the electrochemical hydrogenation of glassy carbon followed by either chemical or electrochemical chlorination to provide a highly reactive surface for further functionalization. The carbon surface at each stage of the process is characterized by AFM, SEM, Raman, attenuated total reflectance (ATR) FTIR, X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and electroanalytical techniques. Electrochemical chlorination of hydrogen‐terminated surfaces is achieved in just 5 min at room temperature with hydrochloric acid, and chemical chlorination is performed with phosphorus pentachloride at 50 °C over a three‐hour period. A more controlled and uniform surface is obtained using the electrochemical approach, as chemical chlorination is observed to damage the glassy carbon surface. A ferrocene‐labeled alkylthiol is used as a model system to demonstrate the genericity and potential application of the highly reactive chlorinated surface formed, and the methodology is optimized. This process is then applied to thiolated DNA, and the functionality of the immobilized DNA probe is demonstrated. XPS reveals the covalent bond formed to be a C?S bond. The thermal stability of the thiolated molecules anchored on the glassy carbon is evaluated, and is found to be far superior to that on gold surfaces. This is the first report on the electrochemical hydrogenation and electrochemical chlorination of a glassy carbon surface, and this facile process can be applied to the highly stable functionalization of carbon surfaces with a plethora of diverse molecules, finding widespread applications. 相似文献

Lipid vesicles and other types of amphiphilic materials are of great interest in the size-controlled synthesis of metal nanoparticles. In this study, we prepared nano-sized liposomes encapsulating tetrachloroauric acid for the facile synthesis of gold nanoparticles with controlled size over a range of 2–5 nm at room temperature. The semi-permeable character of the lipid membrane to the varying concentrations of reducing agent—sodium borohydride-regulated the particle formation kinetics. Diffusion of the reducing agent through the liposomal membrane in a controlled manner resulted in ultrasmall nanoparticles of a narrow size distribution with less aggregation as compared to the solution-based preparation method. 相似文献

A new approach to the three dimensional integration of short DNA strands at gold electrode surfaces via the in situ formation of DNA-acrylamide conjugates is presented. Surface initiated atom transfer radical polymerisation was employed to grow acrylamide brushes co-polymerised in the presence of acrylamide modified DNA probes. This strategy was demonstrated for the realisation of biofunctionalised thin polymer films capable of binding its complementary 105-base DNA amplicon. The synthesised brushes were characterised using atomic force microscopy, attenuated total reflectance spectroscopy and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. Once characterised, the polymer brushes were applied to the quantitative detection of target DNA using an enzyme labelled reporter DNA probe in a sandwich-type format. 相似文献
