Hydrogen bond-stabilised N-alkylammonium resorcinarene halide cavitands
2010
A family of hydrogen bond-stabilised N-alkylammonium resorcinarene chloride and bromide cavitands were synthesised and characterised with 1H NMR and ESI mass spectrometry. The seven compounds exhibit interestingly either self-inclusion or guest complexation in the solid state evidenced by single crystal X-ray diffraction. The four dimers show self-inclusion of the upper rim propyl chains and consist of two hydrogen-bonded resorcinarene tetracations and six halide anions, while the remaining two halide anions are located in between the dimers linking them via hydrogen bonding. Small solvent molecules such as dichloromethane, methanol, n-butanol or chloroform are complexed into the resorcinar…
In situ analysis of suspensions of calcium silicate hydrate : application to the study of ionics interactions at the surface of the particules
2014
This project aims to study the interactions between calcium silicate hydrate (C-S-H) and different anions (chlorides, bromides, nitrates and sulfates) in order to build a thermodynamic model and then be predictable. The simplified system CaO-SiO2-H2O is studied by synthesizing C-S-H suspensions and mixing them with different kind of salts (calcium salt or alkali salt). The influence of the temperature and the presence of aluminum in the structure of the C-S-H is also examined.A classical way to investigate this kind of system is to separate the liquid phase from the solid phase in order to analyze them separately. Nevertheless, this step has a large influence on the system, and the experime…
Mammalian glial cells in culture synthesize acetylcholine.
1997
In the present study we demonstrate that acetylcholine is synthesized by cultured mammalian glial cells identified by cell-type specific markers. Primary cultures of rat brain astrocytes or microglia contained 2.0 and 1.6 pmol acetylcholine/10(6) cells on average respectively. Astrocyte cultures established from neonatal mouse brain contained even more acetylcholine (about 80 pmol acetylcholine/10(6) cells). Primary cultures of rat brain astrocytes showed choline acetyltransferase (ChAT) enzyme activity of 3 nmol/mg protein/h; ChAT activity was blocked by 10 microM bromoacetylcholine. In conclusion, these data demonstrate the synthesis of the "neurotransmitter" acetylcholine in cultured gli…
Interaction of polyelectrolytes with oppositely charged micelles studied by fluorescence and liquid chromatography
2005
It is studied by spectrofluorimetry the association of ionized cationic micelles (cetyltrimethylammonium bromide, CTAB) with oppositely charged polyelectrolyte [sodium poly(styrenesulfonate), PSSNa]. CTAB provokes a change in the fluorescence intensity emitted by PSSNa. The investigated surfactants form micelle-like aggregates before critical micellar concentration (CMC). Two approaches (binding and partition equilibrium) are used to obtain the association constant, KA, number of CTAB molecules in a binding site, N, and apparent partition coefficient, Γ. Analysis of the parameters as a function of polymer concentration and ionic strength μ is performed. The effect of μ shows an enhancement …
Gas phase chromatography of halides of elements 104 and 105
1992
On-line isothermal gas phase chromatography was used to study halides of261104 (T1/2=65 s) and262,263105 (T1/2=34 s and 27 s) produced an atom-at-a time via the reactions248Cm(18O, 5n) and249Bk(18O, 5n, 4n), respectively. Using HBr and HCl gas as halogenating agents, we were able to produce volatile bromides and chlorides of the above mentioned elements and study their behavior compared to their lighter homologs in Groups 4 or 5 of the periodic table. Element 104 formed more volatile bromide than its homolog Hf. In contrast, element 105 bromides were found to be less volatile than the bromides of the group 5 elements Nb and Ta. Both 104 and Hf chlorides were observed to be more volatile tha…
Micellar versus hydro-organic reversed-phase liquid chromatography: a solvation parameter-based perspective.
2007
The performance of the solvation parameter model is examined for micellar liquid chromatography. The results are compared with those offered with hydro-organic eluents, intending to reveal the properties that influence the retention and distinguish the particular behaviour of micellar systems. The retention data of several series of non-ionisable and ionisable compounds (mainly steroids, polyaromatic hydrocarbons, phenols, sulfonamides, beta-blockers, phenethylamines, antihistamines, and diuretics) were used as probe compounds. The micellar mobile phases contained an anionic (sodium dodecyl sulphate), non-ionic (Brij-35), or cationic (cetyltrimethylamonium bromide) surfactant, with or witho…
Synthesis and Structural Stability of α-Helical Gold(I)-Metallopeptidesy
2020
AbstractThe synthesis of hexa- and dodecapeptides functionalized with two Au(I)–phosphine complexes is reported. The high stability of the Au(I)–phosphine bond allowed orthogonal peptide-protecting-group chemistry, even when using hard Lewis acids like boron tribromide. This enabled the preparation of an Fmoc-protected lysine derivative carrying the Au(I) complex in a side chain, which was used in standard Fmoc-based solid-phase peptide synthesis protocols. Alanine and leucine repeats in the metallododecapeptide formed α-helical secondary structures in 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol–H2O and 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoroisopropanol–H2O mixtures with high thermal stability, as shown by temperature-dependent…
Induced Chirality in Confined Space on Halogen Gold Complexes
2015
The solubilization of HAuCl4 in toluene within optically active reverse micelles and lamellar structures formed by (1R,2S)-Dodecyl(2-hydroxy-1-methyl-2-phenylethyl)- dimethylammonium bromide (DMEB) has allowed us to evidence the complex phenomenology accompanying the confinement of Au salt within these nanostructures. Together with a chloride/bromide exchange process occurring in the first coordination sphere of an Au ion, UV−vis and electronic circular dichroism (ECD) spectra reveal the appearance of an induced dichroic signal attributable to Au complexes entrapped in the hydrophilic domain of the DMEB chiral nanostructures. Interestingly, change of the effective oxidation state and coordi…
A Straightforward Electroactive π-Extended Tetrathiafulvalene (exTTF) Building Block
2012
The synthesis and X-ray structure of a new and readily available exTTF derivative (6) bearing a methyltriphenylphosphonium bromide moiety as a new building block for the construction of electroactive molecules is reported. The phosphonium salt 6, which was prepared in one step from 2-hydroxymethyl-exTTF as a stable yellow solid in 84 % yield, efficiently undergoes Wittig olefination reactions with a variety of aldehydes to predominantly form the E isomer. Electronic spectra and cyclic voltammetry of the novel compounds reveal the electronic communication between the electroactive units.
Structural, magnetic and electrical properties of one-dimensional tetraamidatodiruthenium compounds
2013
The first bromo and iodo tetraamidatodiruthenium compounds of the type [Ru2X(μ-NHOCC6H4-R)4]n [X = Br, R = o-Me (1), m-Me (2), p-Me (3); X = I, R = o-Me (4), m-Me (5), p-Me (6)] have been prepared using solvothermal or microwave activation procedures. In these reactions ethanol or methanol as solvents have been used to make the synthesis procedures more environment-friendly. Solvothermal synthesis has allowed us to isolate single crystals of these extremely insoluble compounds and the crystal structures of all of them have been determined using single crystal X-ray diffraction. The change of the bridging halide ligand permits us to discuss the properties of these complexes on the basis of t…
