双臂型方酰胺多齿配体的合成

自1959年发现方酸以来,已有许多文献报道其可以与多种金属离子,尤其是过渡金属离子形成配合物,但方酰胺多齿配体的研究却不多。在方酰胺内鎓盐中,二氧环丁烯具有电荷分离特性,其上的氧原子带部分负电荷,是理想的配体原子。如果以它为中心,对称地引入具有配位能力的分子片段,如甘醇     

1,3-双(N-取代苯氨基)方酸内鎓盐的合成

在方酸内鎓盐中,四碳环的电荷分离使其氧原子带部分负电荷,成为潜在的良好配位基。 据此,作者于前文中合成了以双苯氨基方酸内鎓盐为骨架、苯环的2—位对称引入多甘醇醚氧 链的多齿配体,并以它们为萃取剂或电活性物质成功地实现了水相中UO_2~(2 )的萃取及碱水中NH_3 的测定。如果配基链由苯环的2—位移至N上,整个配体分子的几何及电子结构将发生改变, 四碳环上的氧与侧链的匹配情况也将不同。此外,苯环上的取代基将可能通过共轭体系直接影响 四碳环上氧的电荷状态及配位能力。因此,本文合成并研究了一类新的1,3—双(N—取代苯氨基) 方酸内鎓盐型多齿配体2(a～h)(见下式)。     

Ultrathin self-assembled polymeric films on solid surfaces. I. Synthesis and characterization of acrylate copolymers containing alkyl disulfide side chains

Copolymers of 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate and 2-methoxyethyl acrylate with variable compositions were synthesized, fractionated, and characterized by ¹H-NMR, IR, GPC, and viscometry. These copolymers were further modified via polymer analog esterification of copolymer hydroxy groups by a series of disulfide-containing carboxylic acids including lipoic acid and (n-pentyldithio) alkyl carboxylic acids (n-C₅H₁₁SS(CH₂)m? COOH, m = 10, 15, 22) in the presence of 1,3-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCC). Esterification reactions were quantitative for copolymers possessing hydroxy monomer contents ≤ 40% when excess acid and DCC were present for sufficiently long reaction times (2–4 days) at room temperature. Copolymer DSC analysis demonstrates a systematic variation of T_g with copolymer composition in good agreement with ideal mixing theory. These disulfide-bearing copolymers spontaneously yield two-dimensional ultrathin polymer films with side chain-dependent layer thicknesses of 20–45 Å by solution adsorption onto freshly deposited gold surfaces. Such ultrathin polymer films are expected to have diverse applications as bound polymeric surface modification reagents. © 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

Sensitizers for Aqueous‐Based Solar Cells

Aqueous dye‐sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) are attractive due to their sustainability, the use of water as a safe solvent for the redox mediators, and their possible applications in photoelectrochemical water splitting. However, the higher tendency of dye leaching by water and the lower wettability of dye molecules are two major obstacles that need to be tackled for future applications of aqueous DSSCs. Sensitizers designed for aqueous DSSCs are discussed based on their functions, such as modification of the molecular skeleton and the anchoring group for better stability against dye leaching by water, and the incorporation of hydrophilic entities into the dye molecule or the addition of a surfactant to the system to increase the wettability of the dye for more facile dye regeneration. Surface treatment of the photoanode to deter dye leaching or improve the wettability of the dye molecule is also discussed. Redox mediators designed for aqueous DSSCs are also discussed. The review also includes quantum‐dot‐sensitized solar cells, with a focus on improvements in QD loading and suppression of interfacial charge recombination at the photoanode.

The Coordination Behaviour of CuI Photosensitizers Bearing Multidentate Ligands Investigated by X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy

A systematic series of four novel homo- and heteroleptic Cu^I photosensitizers based on tetradentate 1,10-phenanthroline ligands of the type X^N^N^X containing two additional donor moieties in the 2,9-position (X=SMe or OMe) were designed. Their solid-state structures were assessed by X-ray diffraction. Cyclic voltammetry, UV-vis absorption, emission and X-ray absorption spectroscopy were then used to determine their electrochemical, photophysical and structural features in solution. Following, time-resolved X-ray absorption spectroscopy in the picosecond time scale, coupled with time-dependent density functional theory calculations, provided in-depth information on the excited state electron configurations. For the first time, a significant shortening of the Cu−X distance and a change in the coordination mode to a pentacoordinated geometry is shown in the excited states of the two homoleptic complexes. These findings are important with respect to a precise understanding of the excited state structures and a further stabilization of this type of photosensitizers.     

Synthesis of new fluorescently labeled glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchors

The borondipyrromethene (BODIPY) labeled new glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) molecules were synthesized as cellular probes to study the chemical basis of microdomain organization of GPI-anchored proteins and cholesterol in plasma membrane. The synthesis enabled by a new stereo-selective glycosylation of myo-d-inositol acceptor led to the preparation of optically pure glucosaminyl-(1-6)-α-phosphatidyl-myo-d-inositol and its unnatural stereoisomer.     

Caging the mercurous ion: a tetradentate tripodal nitrogen ligand enhances stability and J(1H199Hg)

The dimeric mercurous ion has been encapsulated by a pair of the tetradentate tripodal nitrogen ligands tris[(2-(6-methylpyridyl))methyl]amine (TLA). The complex [Hg₂(TLA)₂](ClO₄)₂ (1) was isolated directly from an acetonitrile solution of Hg(ClO₄)₂ 3H₂O and TLA. Complex 1 crystallizes in the triclinic space group with a = 10.537(2) Å, b = 10.751(2) Å, c = 10.907(2) Å, = 75.20(3), = 73.73(3), = 75.73(3), and Z = 1. The cation is located an inversion center. The Hg–Hg and Hg–N_amine bond distances are 2.5469(8) and 2.297(6) Å, respectively, and the average Hg–N_pyridyl bond length is 2.75(7) Å. Complex 1 was stable indefinitely in acetonitrile-d ₃ solution, permitting detection of 13 and 22 Hz heteronuclear couplings between the Hg(I) ions and the methylene protons of the ligand. Comparisons with the structures and spectroscopic properties of related mercuric and mercurous complexes are made.

The Impact of an Anchoring Layer on the Formation of Tethered Bilayer Lipid Membranes on Silver Substrates

Tethered bilayer lipid membranes (tBLMs) have been known as stable and versatile experimental platforms for protein–membrane interaction studies. In this work, the assembly of functional tBLMs on silver substrates and the effect of the molecular chain-length of backfiller molecules on their properties were investigated. The following backfillers 3-mercapto-1-propanol (3M1P), 4-mercapto-1-butanol (4M1B), 6-mercapto-1-hexanol (6M1H), and 9-mercapto-1-nonanol (9M1N) mixed with the molecular anchor WC14 (20-tetradecyloxy-3,6,9,12,15,18,22 heptaoxahexatricontane-1-thiol) were used to form self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) on silver, which influenced a fusion of multilamellar vesicles and the formation of tBLMs. Spectroscopic analysis by SERS and RAIRS has shown that by using different-length backfiller molecules, it is possible to control WC14 anchor molecules orientation on the surface. An introduction of increasingly longer surface backfillers in the mixed SAM may be related to the increasing SAMs molecular order and more vertical orientation of WC14 at both the hydrophilic ethylenoxide segment and the hydrophobic lipid bilayer anchoring alkane chains. Since no clustering of WC14 alkane chains, which is deleterious for tBLM integrity, was observed on dry samples, the suitability of mixed-component SAMs for subsequent tBLM formation was further interrogated by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). EIS showed the arrangement of well-insulating tBLMs if 3M1P was used as a backfiller. An increase in the length of the backfiller led to increased defectiveness of tBLMs. Despite variable defectiveness, all tBLMs responded to the pore-forming cholesterol-dependent cytolysin, vaginolysin in a manner consistent with the functional reconstitution of the toxin into phospholipid bilayer. This experiment demonstrates the biological relevance of tBLMs assembled on silver surfaces and indicates their utility as biosensing elements for the detection of pore-forming toxins in liquid samples.
