Quantification of hydrolysis of toxic organophosphates and organophosphonates by diisopropyl fluorophosphatase from Loligo vulgaris by in situ Fourie…
2008
Abstract The enzyme diisopropyl fluorophosphatase (DFPase) from the squid Loligo vulgaris effectively catalyzes the hydrolysis of diisopropyl fluorophosphate (DFP) and a number of organophosphorus nerve agents, including sarin, soman, cyclosarin, and tabun. Up to now, the determination of kinetic data has been achieved by techniques such as pH-stat titration, ion-selective electrodes, and fluorogenic substrate analogs. We report a new assaying method using in situ Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy with attenuated total reflection (ATR) for the real-time determination of reaction rates. The method employs changes in the P–O–R stretching vibration of DFP and nerve agent substrate…
Scandium(III) complexes of monophosphorus acid DOTA analogues: a thermodynamic and radiolabelling study with 44 Sc from cyclotron and from a 44 Ti/ 4…
2015
International audience; The complexation ability of DOTA analogs bearing one methylenephosphonic (DO3AP) or methylene-phosphinic (DO3AP PrA and DO3AP ABn) acid pendant arm toward scandium was evaluated. Stability constants of their scandium(III) complexes were determined by potentiometry combined with 45 Sc NMR spectroscopy. The stability constants of the monophosphinate analogues are somewhat lower than that of the Sc–DOTA complex. The phosphorus acid moiety interacts with trivalent scandium even in very acidic solutions forming out-of-cage complexes; the strong affinity of the phosphonate group to Sc(III) precludes stability constant determination of the Sc–DO3AP complex. These results we…
Hydrogen and copper ion-induced molecular reorganizations in scorpionand-like ligands. A potentiometric, mechanistic, and solid-state study.
2007
Two aza scorpionand-like macrocycles (L2 and L3) have been prepared. L2 consists of a tren amine with two of its arms cyclizized with a 2,6-bis(bromomethyl)pyridine. In L3, the remaining pendant arm has been further functionalized with a fluorophoric naphthalene group. X-ray data on the compounds [H(L3)]ClO4.H2O (1) and [H3(L3)](H2PO4)3.H2O (2) as well as solution studies (pH-metry, UV-vis, and fluorescence data) show the movement of the pendant arm as a result of the protonation degree of the macrocycles and of the formation of intramolecular hydrogen bonds. X-ray data on the complexes [Cu(L2)](ClO4)2]2.H2O (3) and [Cu(L3)](ClO4)2 (4) and solution studies on Cu2+ coordination show the impl…
A three-component Mannich-type condensation leading to phosphinic dipeptides—extended transition state analogue inhibitors of aminopeptidases
2011
Abstract N-Protected α-aminoalkylphosphinic acids bearing a P–H function were found to be novel practical building blocks in three-component condensations with formaldehyde and secondary amines (amino acids). Such Mannich-type N -phosphonomethylation is a common approach for phosphorus acid derived substrates and leads to multifunctional (phosphonic/amino/carboxylic) compounds of diverse relevance. The utility of this reaction was examined for construction, in a single synthetic step, of advanced phosphinic pseudodipeptides designed to act as extended transition state analogue inhibitors of selected aminopeptidases. Phosphinomethylation of primary amino acids was less efficient and yielded …
