N-Benzyl Residues as the P1′ Substituents in Phosphorus-Containing Extended Transition State Analog Inhibitors of Metalloaminopeptidases
2020
Peptidyl enzyme inhibitors containing an internal aminomethylphosphinic bond system (P(O)(OH)-CH2-NH) can be termed extended transition state analogs by similarity to the corresponding phosphonamidates (P(O)(OH)-NH). Phosphonamidate pseudopeptides are broadly recognized as competitive mechanism-based inhibitors of metalloenzymes, mainly hydrolases. Their practical use is, however, limited by hydrolytic instability, which is particularly restricting for dipeptide analogs. Extension of phosphonamidates by addition of the methylene group produces a P-C-N system fully resistant in water conditions. In the current work, we present a versatile synthetic approach to such modified dipeptides, based…
Ethylene oligomerization with 2-hydroxymethyl-5,6,7-trihydroquinolinyl-8-ylideneamine-Ni(II) chlorides
2021
Abstract A series of Ni complexes of the general formula [2-(MeOH)-8-{N(Ar)}C9H8N]NiCl2, where Ar = 2,6-Me2C6H3 in Ni1; 2,6-Et2C6H3 in Ni2; 2,6-i-Pr2C6H3 in Ni3; 2,4,6-Me3C6H2 in Ni4; 2,6-Et2-4-MeC6H2 in Ni5 and 2,4,6-t-Bu3C6H2 in Ni6 has been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis and IR spectroscopy. On activation with MMAO or Et2AlCl, these complexes showed high activity in ethylene oligomerization, reaching 2.23 × 106 g·mol–1 (Ni) h–1 at 30 °C with the Al/Ni ratio of 5500 and 9.11 × 105 g·mol–1 (Ni) h–1 with the Al/Ni of 800, respectively. Moreover, the content of α-C4 indicated high selectivity exceeding 99% in the Ni/Et2AlCl system. Comparing with the previous report by o…
Influence of a sterically hindered amine on the photo-oxidation of low density/linear low density polyethylene blends
1990
Abstract Low density/linear low density polyethylene blends show a rate of degradation of the mechanical properties during photo-oxidation which increases with the content of the linear polymer. The use of a sterically hindered amine as UV stabilizer greatly improves the resistance of these blends to UV irradiation. The effectiveness of the stabilizer increases with the content of linear low density polyethylene.
Reactive Surface Coatings Based on Polysilsesquioxanes: Controlled Functionalization for Specific Protein Immobilization
2009
The key designing in reliable biosensors is the preparation of thin films in which biomolecular functions may be immobilized and addressed in a controlled and reproducible manner. This requires the controlled preparation of specific binding sites on planar surfaces. Poly(methylsilsesquioxane)-poly(pentafluorophenyl acrylates) (PMSSQ-PFPA) are promising materials to produce stable and adherent thin reactive coatings on various substrates. Those reactive surface coatings could be applied onto various materials, for example, gold, polycarbonate (PC), poly(tetrafluoroethylene) (PTFE), and glass. By dipping those substrates in a solution of a desired amine, specific binding sites for protein ads…
Structural and morphological rearrangements in quenched poly(ethylene) by simultaneous SAXS/WAXS
2000
Structure formation by crystallization from the melt in a wide range of cooling rates (0.08-1 000°C/s) in low-density polyethylene has been studied by simultaneous small- and wide-angle X-ray scattering at the synchroton radiation source of DESY. The occurrence of two periodicities, characterized by different angular position of Bragg's maxima, was observed, pointing to the existence of two types of lamellar stacks, associated with two different long period values L 1 and L 2 (L 1 > L 2 ). L 1 depends on the cooling rate, whereas L 2 is almost constant. A comparison with isotactic polypropylene is performed, where a similar phenomenon takes place. While in the case of i-PP a definite correl…
Rate Effects of AOT-Stabilized Microemulsions on Reactions of Ligand Substitution in Cationic Palladium(II) Complexes
1998
Rate data for the substitution reactions of the coordinated ligand X (=2,2‘-bipyridine or 4,4‘-dimethyl-2,2‘-bipyridine) of the palladium(II) complex [Pd(en)X]2+, where en = ethylenediamine, by en or N,N-dimethylethylenediamine in heptane−AOT−water microemulsions have been obtained at 25.0 °C as a function of the AOT concentration at the constant R (=[H2O]/[AOT]) values of 3, 8, and 20 or 30. The overall second-order rate constants are higher in microemulsions than in bulk water and decrease significantly as both the AOT concentration (at constant R) and the molar ratio R (at a given [AOT]) increase. The quantitative analysis of the kinetic data, made by applying the pseudophase model, lead…
A contribution to the preparation of phenolic polynuclear compounds with sulfonyl bridges
1964
For the preparation of phenolic di- and tricyclic compounds with sulfonyl bridges the Fries rearrangement is suitable, and for the corresponding products with three and four benzene rings the Friedel-Crafts reaction may be used. The exchange of sulfonyl bridges for methylene bridges produces a marked increase in the melting point.
Effective recovery of perfluoropolyether surfactants from PVDF and PTFE by supercritical carbon dioxide extraction
2007
Abstract The extraction of ammonium carboxylate perfluoropolyether surfactants from poly(vinylidenefluoride) (PVDF) and poly(tetrafluoroethylene) (PTFE) was performed with supercritical carbon dioxide. When proper conditions in terms of temperature, pressure and flow rate were used, extraction recoveries higher than 90% were obtained. For PVDF (with a concentration of surfactant of 5% w/w), at low pressure (12 MPa) and 40 °C, more than 100 min are necessary to have a quantitative extraction. On the other hand, at higher pressure (20 MPa) a quantitative recovery was obtained after few minutes. A strong influence of the temperature on the extraction recovery was also found. In the case of PTF…
Adsorption of organic compounds at the surface of Enceladus' ice grains. A grand canonical Monte Carlo simulation study
2021
International audience; In this paper, we characterise the adsorption of ethylene, propanol and hexanal molecules on crystalline ice by grand canonical Monte Carlo simulations performed at 236 K, a temperature which is typical of some Enceladus’ environments. We show that at low coverage of the ice surface, the adsorption of propanol and hexanal is driven by the interaction of these molecules with the ice phase and, as a consequence, the adsorbed molecules lie more or less parallel to the ice surface. On the other hand, upon saturation, the adsorbate–adsorbate interactions become more and more important and the molecules tend to become tilted with respect to the surface, the aliphatic chain…
