Automatic flow procedure for the determination of glycerol in wine using enzymatic reaction and spectrophotometry

An automatic flow procedure for the determination of glycerol in wines by employing a flow system based on multicommutation and enzymatic reaction is described. Glycerol dehydrogenase was immobilized on aminopropyl glass beads and packed into a column that was coupled to the flow system. The NADH produced by the enzymatic reaction was monitored by spectrophotometry at 340 nm and its radiation absorption presented a relationship with glycerol concentration. The system manifold comprised a set of three-way solenoid valves controlled by a microcomputer, which was furnished with electronic interfaces and runs a software that was designed to carry out on-line sample dilution, reagent addition, and data acquisition. The procedure allows the determination of glycerol in wine samples without any prior pretreatment. The procedure presented as profitable features a linear response range between 2.0 and 10.0 g l⁻¹ glycerol (R=0.998), a detection limit of 0.006 g l⁻¹ glycerol, a relative standard deviation of 1.8% (n=14) for a typical wine sample presenting 5.3 g l⁻¹ glycerol, a sampling throughput of 33 determinations per hour, and a NAD⁺ consumption of 0.8 mg per determination. The results were compared with those obtained using a reference method and no significant difference at 90% confidence level was observed.     

Effect of substituent on the enantioselectivity for lipase-catalyzed kinetic resolution of glycerol derivatives

The lipase-catalyzed transesterifications of various substituted diphenyl 1,2-ketals of glycerol have been investigated. Efficient modification of the substrate structure with bis(4-bromophenyl) ketal was found to enhance the enantioselectivity up to E=57 at 0 °C.     

Determination of anionic trace impurities in glycerol by capillary isotachophoresis with enlarged sample load

Glycerol of different quality classifications served as a model for a neutral excess component in the isotachophoretic determination of low-molecular-mass anionic trace impurities. Potential anionic contaminants such as nitrate, sulphate, chlorate, nitrite, oxalate, fluoride formate and phosphate were analysed up to an analyte-to-excess ratio of 1:4·10⁷, thus providing the possibility of checking the sample for the mentioned analytes in the order of 2.5·10⁻⁶–9.5·10⁻⁶%. Because we used a column-coupling isotachophoretic instrument the electrolyte system consisted of two different leading electrolytes, one for the pre-separation (10 mmol/l HCl, β-alanine, pH 3.2) in the first capillary and one for the final separation (5 mmol/l HCl, 1,3-bis[tris(hydroxymethyl)methylamino]propane, β-alanine, pH 3.6) in the second capillary. The terminating electrolyte was citric acid. Due to an increased injection volume of 300 μl, limits of detection (LODs) in the nanomolar range were realised by conductivity detection. The developed method allows simultaneous analysis without sample preparation and/or preconcentration within 25 min and is for that reason suitable for in-place process control.     

CuI/l-proline catalyzed click reaction in glycerol for the synthesis of 1,2,3-triazoles

Despite the apparent simplicity of the copper(I) iodide catalyzed CuAAC reaction, the conversion of the catalytic species, i.e. Cu(I) to thermodynamically more stable Cu(II), via aerial oxidation or disproportionation is a major issue. To stabilize the Cu(I) species, the reaction is ideally carried out under an inert atmosphere in the presence of additives such as alcohols, amines, thiols, and aldehydes. Herein, we report the first CuI catalyzed click reaction without an inert atmosphere by employing the CuI/l-proline system in glycerol. The method showed remarkable stability towards sensitive functional groups such as acetonides and 1,2,4-trioxanes.     

Decorating Pt/C Nanoparticles with Ru by Wall‐Jet Configuration: The Role of Coverage Degree on the Catalyst Activity for Glycerol Electrooxidation

Here, we built Ru‐decorated Pt/C nanoparticles with different coverage degrees (θ_Ru) by wall‐jet configuration for the first time, and we investigated their catalytic properties towards glycerol electrooxidation in acidic medium. Moreover, we used the most active catalysts as the anode in electrolysis to produce carbonyl compounds. The use of an electrochemical cell in wall‐jet configuration allows for the controlling of electrodeposition through easily handling parameters; namely, the θ_Ru is controlled by changing the concentration of the metallic precursor, speed, and volume of injection onto a Pt/C‐modified glassy carbon electrode under applied potential. Excess of Ru on a Pt surface inhibits glycerol dissociative adsorption, which limits further electrooxidation; whereas low θ_Ru do not provide surface oxygen species to the anodic reaction. Hence, intermediates θ_Ru reveal active catalysts – namely, θ_Ru=0.42 shifts the onset potential 170 mV towards lower values and increases 1.65‐fold the current density at 0.5 V. The stability of this catalyst is also enhanced by maintaining a more constant current density during successive potential cycles in the presence of glycerol and by avoiding Ru leaching from the surface. The electrolysis on Ru‐decorated Pt/C is shown to lead the reaction towards formic acid (‘high oxidation state’), decreasing the amounts of glyceradehyde, glycolic acid, and dihydroxyacetone, as a result of the improved catalytic properties.     

Effect of Cholesteric Liquid Crystalline Compounds on the Radical Polymerization of Methyl Methacrylate

Polymerization of methyl methacrylate was carried out at 55 and 65°C using benzoyl peroxide as initiator in the presence of the fol-lowing additives: (a) cholesteric compounds like cholesterol, cho-lesteryl acetate, cholesteryl caprylate, cholesteryl stearate, choles-teryl chloride, cholesteryl laurate, cholesteryl oleyl carbonate, and cholesteryl 2-ethylhexyl carbonate, (b) a nematic liquid crystal, N-(p-methoxy benzylidene)-p-butyl aniline, and (c) rodlike molecules like 2-butynediol and diacetylene diol. The rates of polymerization, activation energies, molecular weights, and tacticities of the poly-mer are discussed in the light of monomer + additive interactions. It is found that monomer-additive complexes affect the polymerization rates.     

CuI/glycerol mediated stereoselective synthesis of 1,2-bis-chalcogen alkenes from terminal alkynes: synthesis of new antioxidants

(E)-1,2-Bis-chalcogen alkenes were stereoselectively prepared in good yields by the addition of diorganyl dichalcogenides to terminal alkynes using CuI/Zn/glycerol as a recyclable catalytic system. The antioxidant activity in vitro of four (E)-1,2-bis-chalcogen alkenes synthesized was evaluated and (E)-1,2-bis-(4-methoxyphenylselanyl)styrene 3b presented excellent activity. The catalytic system used in the synthesis was recovered and used directly up to 5 cycles without loss of activity.     

Electrophoretic separation of reptilian skeletal and cardiac muscle myosin heavy chain isoforms: Dependence on gel format

This report provides a comparison of multiple gel formats to study myosin heavy chain (MHC) isoforms that are expressed in reptilian skeletal and cardiac muscles of five turtle species, water monitor, and prehensile tailed skink. Three gel formats were tested. The results identify one format that is superior, for the overall extent of electrophoretic separation and for the assessment of the number of MHC isoforms in reptilian striated muscles. The same format was shown previously to separate MHC isoforms that are expressed in American alligator. The results also show that another gel format reveals the distinct electrophoretic mobility of MHC isoforms in atrial, ventricular, and jaw adductor samples, compared to those expressed in skeletal muscles in the limbs and elsewhere in the body. In addition, the results reveal that the electrophoretic mobility of specific MHC isoforms, relative to other isoforms, depends on the gel format, as shown previously for mammalian and avian species. The discovery of the expression of masticatory MHC, which is abundantly expressed in jaw adductors of members of Carnivora and several other vertebrate orders, in the homologous muscles of prehensile tailed skink, an herbivore, and the carnivorous water monitor, was made during the course of this study.
