Reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography of proteins and polypeptides on polystyrene-coated silica supports
1990
Abstract A new type of hydrolytically stable reversed-phase packing material prepared by multi-point covalent binding of polystyrene chains onto the surface of porous silica was examined in the high-performance liquid chromatography of proteins and polypeptides. Whereas wide-pore material was shown to give a rapid and efficient resolution of proteins, packings with smaller pores provided better selectivities for peptides.
Pauson-Khand reaction of internal dissymmetric trifluoromethyl alkynes. Influence of the alkene on the regioselectivity.
2014
Abstract: The scope of the Pauson-Khand reaction (PKR) of internal trifluoromethyl alkynes, previously described with norbornadiene, is expanded to norbornene and ethylene. A thorough structural analysis of the resulting PK adducts has been carried out to unveil that α-trifluoromethylcyclopentenones are preferred in all cases, independently of the electronic properties of the alkyne. The regioselectivity observed with norbornadiene and ethylene is higher than in the case of norbornene.
Comparative biological evaluation and G-quadruplex interaction studies of two new families of organometallic gold(I) complexes featuring N-heterocycl…
2020
Experimental organometallic gold(I) compounds hold promise for anticancer therapy. This study reports the synthesis of two novel families of gold(I) complexes, including N1-substituted bis-N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) complexes of general formula [Au(N1-TBM) 2]BF 4 (N1-TBM = N1-substituted 9-methyltheobromin-8-ylidene) and mixed gold(I) NHC-alkynyl complexes, [Au(N1-TBM)alkynyl]. The compounds were fully characterised for their structure and stability in aqueous environment and in the presence of N-acetyl cysteine by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. The structures of bis(1-ethyl-3,7,9-trimethylxanthin-8-ylidene)gold(I), (4-ethynylpyridine)(1,9-dimethyltheobromine-8-ylidene)gol…

Evaluation of enantioselective binding of propanocaine to human serum albumin by ultrafiltration and electrokinetic chromatography under intermediate…
2011
Abstract Stereoselectivity in protein binding can have a significant effect on the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties of chiral drugs. In this paper, the enantioselective binding of propanocaine (PRO) enantiomers to human serum albumin (HSA), the most relevant plasmatic protein in view of stereoselectivity, has been evaluated by incubation and ultrafiltration of racemic PRO–HSA mixtures and chiral analysis of the bound and unbound fractions by electrokinetic chromatography using HSA as chiral selector. Experimental conditions for the separation of PRO enantiomers using HSA as chiral selector and electrokinetic chromatography have been optimised. Affinity constants and protein bi…
Synthesis of the aggregation pheromone of the Colorado potato beetle from its degradation product
2015
Incubation of the Colorado potato beetle aggregation pheromone, (S)-1,3-dihydroxy-3,7-dimethyl-6-octen-2-one, with antennal or leg extracts from this beetle gave 6-methyl-5-hepten-2-one as the major product. This ketone was used as a substrate in a stereoselective synthesis of the pheromone. It was attached to the butanediacetal of glycolic acid with good stereoselectivity and the desired isomer was further enriched by purification of the product of this reaction on silica gel.
Testing for selectivity in the dependence of random variables on external factors
2008
Random variables AA and BB, whose joint distribution depends on factors (x,y)(x,y), are selectively influenced by xx and yy, respectively, if AA and BB can be represented as functions of, respectively, (x,SA,C)(x,SA,C) and (y,SB,C)(y,SB,C), where SA,SB,CSA,SB,C are stochastically independent and do not depend on (x,y)(x,y). Selective influence implies selective dependence of marginal distributions on the respective factors: thus no parameter of AA may depend on yy. But parameters characterizing stochastic interdependence of AA and BB, such as their mixed moments, are generally functions of both xx and yy. We derive two simple necessary conditions for selective dependence of (A,B)(A,B) on (x…
The impact of learning difficulties and socioemotional and behavioural problems on transition to postsecondary education or work life in Finland: a f…
2016
AbstractLearning difficulties have been found to dilute the possibilities that young adults have in their educational careers. However, during the last few decades, education has become increasingly important for employment and overall life satisfaction. In the present study, we were interested in the effects of mathematical and reading difficulties and socioemotional and behavioural problems (measured at age 16) on three educational situations at age 21: delayed graduation from upper secondary education, short educational trajectory and not being engaged in education, employment or training (NEET). The participants (N = 597; 304 females, 293 males) were one age cohort of ninth graders in g…
Toward an understanding of the unexpected regioselective hetero-Diels-Alder reactions of asymmetric tetrazines with electron-rich ethylenes: a DFT st…
2009
The regioselective hetero-Diels-Alder (HDA) reaction of asymmetric tetrazines (TTZs) with electron-rich (ER) ethylenes has been studied with use of DFT methods at the B3LYP/6-31G* level of theory. The reaction is a domino process that comprises three consecutive reactions: (i) a HDA reaction between the TTZ and the ER ethylene; (ii) a retro-Diels-Alder reaction with loss of nitrogen; and (iii) a beta-hydrogen elimination with formation of the final pyridazines. The first polar HDA reaction, which is associated to the nucleophilic attack of the ER ethylene to the electrophilically activated TTZ, is the rate and regioselectivity determining step of the domino process. The unexpected regiosele…
Nanomaterial-based molecularly imprinted polymers for pesticides detection: Recent trends and future prospects
2020
Abstract Pesticides have been widely used in agricultural and industrial production to prevent pests. So, sensing pesticides with high selectivity and sensitivity level plays a significant role in food safety management. Molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) based sensors overcome the current restriction of traditional detection approaches and offer great potential for efficient, low-cost and low detection limit using smart miniaturized equipment. But some drawbacks could come from the lack of electrocatalytic activity and conductivity of MIPs that restrict their utilization in the sensing field. The integration of NPs with MIPs has opened new ways for rapid screening and monitoring of pestic…
