Carbohydrates as Polyfunctional Scaffolds in Combinatorial Synthesis

2006

Carbohydrates are inexpensive, polyfunctional molecules which contain a high density of stereogenic centers. Taking advantage of these particular properties monosaccharides like glucose or mannose have been used for the construction of peptidomimetics which simulate recognition sites of somatostatin or RGD ligands of integrins. Due to their poly functionality, carbohydrates are considered promising scaffolds for combinatorial syntheses either in solution or on solid phase. The application of carbohydrate scaffolds, however, requires sets of orthogonally stable, selectively removable protecting groups, and the challenge in this combinatorial strategy increases with increasing number of hydro…

Determination of caffeine in tea samples by Fourier transform infrared spectrometry

2002

A sustainable and environmentally friendly procedure has been developed for the FTIR determination of caffeine in tea leaf samples. The method is based on the extraction with ammonia and CHCl3 and direct determination of caffeine on the chloroform extracts using peak height absorbance measurements at 1658.5 cm(-1) and external calibration. The method provides a sensitivity of 0.2142 absorbance units mg(-1) mL and a limit of detection of 1 mg L(-1), corresponding to 0.002% m/m caffeine in tea leaves. As compared with a reference procedure, based on UV absorbance measurement at 276 nm after low pressure column chromatography, the developed procedure reduces the consume of CHCl3 by a factor of…
