Palladium-catalyzed synthesis of aryl-substituted polyamine compounds from aryl halides

1997

The reaction of polyamines having primary amino groups and 1,2-diaminoethane and/or 1,3-diaminopropane fragments with aryl bromides or iodides in the presence of sodium tert-butoxide and (dppf)PdCl2 (dppf = 1,1′-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene) proceeds selectively leading to monoaryl-substituted derivatives of polyamine. This reaction provides a convenient method of arylation of di-, tri- and tetraamine compounds. The Pd-catalyzed reactions of 1,3-diaminopropane and 3,3′-diaminodipropylamine with more reactive 1-bromonaphthalene can be used for the preparation of sym-dinaphthyl derivatives of these amines.

Silver nanoparticles stabilized by a polyaminocyclodextrin as catalysts for the reduction of nitroaromatic compounds

2015

Abstract Silver nanoparticles stabilized by means of poly -(6- N , N -dimethyl-propylenediamino)-(6-deoxy)-β-cyclodextrin were synthesized, characterized by different techniques (UV–vis spectroscopy, Dynamic Light Scattering, High Resolution Transmission Electron Microscopy, Fourier-transform IR Spectroscopy) and used as catalysts for the reduction of various nitrobenzene derivatives with sodium borohydride. The nanocomposites obtained appear to have an organized structure, with a metal core surrounded by a layer-structured coating shell. Kinetic data, rationalized in terms of a modified Langmuir–Hinshelwood model, evidenced a non-linear dependence of the reaction rate on the concentration …

Surface-Enhanced Raman Study of the Interactions between Tripodal Cationic Polyamines and Polynucleotides

2011

Raman and surface-enhanced Raman spectra of new DNA/RNA-binding compounds consisting of three imidazole (Im) and three pyridine (Py) rings connected by tripodal polyaminomethylene linkages were obtained by the near-infrared excitation at 1064 nm. Study of interactions of Im and Py polyamines with single-stranded RNA polynucleotides (poly A, poly G, poly C, poly U), double-stranded DNA polynucleotides (poly dAdT-poly dAdT, poly dGdC-poly dGdC) and calf thymus DNA (ct-DNA) by surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) reveals unambiguous enhancement of the Raman scattering from the small molecules as well as appearance of new bands in spectra associated mainly with nucleobases. The SERS exper…

Quality control of gold nanoparticles as pharmaceutical ingredients

2019

Abstract Nanoparticles are being developed for a wide range of medical applications such as, controlled release, drug delivery systems or imagery, theranostics, implants…. For the moment, there is no legal definition of nanoparticles or nanomaterials for therapeutic use. The specific case of gold nanoparticles is not an exception: their current definition as nanoparticle material does not correspond to classic pharmaceutical ingredients as described in Pharmacopoeias. In this study, more than 30 different batches of citrate stabilized gold nanoparticles (AuNP) were synthesized and analyzed thanks to both classical approaches (UV–Vis spectrophotometry, dynamic light scattering coupled or not…

Regulatory effects of polyamines on membrane-bound acetylcholinesterase

1974

The effects of putrescene, spermidine and spermine on membrane-bound acetylcholinesterase from human erythrocyte ‘ghosts’ and the solubilized enzyme of the electric organ of the electric eel were studied by kinetic methods. Measurements were made by using a photometric method which made it possible to record the enzyme reaction in the steady-state phase. Substrate-concentration-dependent activation and inhibition of acetylcholinesterase by polyamines is similar to that by Na+, K+, Ca2+, Mg2+ and certain quaternary and bisquaternary amines. The kinetics suggest an allosteric reaction mechanism. On the basis of the kinetic results a role for the polyamines as modulators of synaptic acetylchol…

Homeostatic control of polyamine levels under long-term salt stress in Arabidopsis

2011

Salt stress has been frequently studied in its first osmotic phase. Very often, data regarding the second ionic phase is missing. It has also been suggested that Putrescine or/and Spermine could be responsible for salt resistance. In order to test this hypothesis under long-term salt stress, we obtained Arabidopsis thaliana transgenic plants harboring pRD29A::oatADC or pRD29A::GUS construction. Although Putrescine was the only polyamine significantly increased after salt acclimation in pRD29A::oatADC transgenic lines, this rendered in no advantage to this kind of stress. The higher Spermine levels found in WT and transgenic lines when compared to control conditions along with no increment o…

New insights into the role of spermine in Arabidopsis thaliana under long-term salt stress

2010

Polyamines (putrescine, spermidine and spermine) are traditionally implicated in the response of plants to environmental cues. Free spermine accumulation has been suggested as a particular feature of long-term salt stress, and in the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana the spermine synthase gene (AtSPMS) has been reported as inducible by abscisic acid (ABA) and acute salt stress treatments. With the aim to unravel the physiological role of free spermine during salinity, we analyzed polyamine metabolism in A. thaliana salt-hypersensitive sos mutants (salt overlay sensitive; sos1-1, sos2-1 and sos3-1), and studied the salt stress tolerance of the mutants in spermine and thermospermine synthesis …

Sequestering ability of polyaminopolycarboxylic ligands towards dioxouranium(VI) cation

2006

Abstract In the present paper, some results of an investigation (at t = 25 °C by potentiometry, ISE-H+ glass electrode) on the sequestering ability of five different polyaminopolycarboxylic ligands [Nitrilotriacetate (NTA), ethylenediamine-N,N,N′,N′-tetraacetate (EDTA), ethylene glycol-bis(2-aminoethylether)-N,N,N′,N′-tetraacetate (EGTA), diethylenetriamine-N,N,N′,N″,N″-pentaacetate (DTPA), triethylenetetraamine-N,N,N′,N″,N′′′,N′′′-hexaacetate (TTHA)] towards dioxouranium(VI) cation in sodium chloride aqueous solutions, at I = 0.7 mol L−1 are reported. Calculations performed on potentiometric data gave evidence of the formation of the following species (log β in parenthesis): UO2(NTA)H0 (12…

Tuning the surface of nanoparticles: Impact of poly(2-ethyl-2-oxazoline) on protein adsorption in serum and cellular uptake

2016

Item does not contain fulltext Due to the adsorption of biomolecules, the control of the biodistribution of nanoparticles is still one of the major challenges of nanomedicine. Poly(2-ethyl-2-oxazoline) (PEtOx) for surface modification of nanoparticles is applied and both protein adsorption and cellular uptake of PEtOxylated nanoparticles versus nanoparticles coated with poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) and non-coated positively and negatively charged nanoparticles are compared. Therefore, fluorescent poly(organosiloxane) nanoparticles of 15 nm radius are synthesized, which are used as a scaffold for surface modification in a grafting onto approach. With multi-angle dynamic light scattering, asym…
