Carborane-stilbene dyads: influence of substituents and cluster isomers on the photoluminescence properties
2017
Two novel styrene-containing meta-carborane derivatives substituted at the second carbon cluster atom (Cc) with either a methyl (Me), or a phenyl (Ph) group, are introduced herein alongside with a new set of stilbene-containing ortho- (o-) and meta- (m-) carborane dyads. The latter set of compounds has been prepared from styrenecontaining carborane derivatives via Heck coupling reaction. High regioselectivity has been achieved for these compounds by using a combination of palladium complexes [Pd2(dba)3]/[Pd(t-Bu3P)2] as a catalytic system, yielding exclusively E isomers. All compounds have been fully characterized and the crystal structures of seven of them analyzed by X-ray diffraction. Th…
Photoluminescence immunosensor based on bovine leukemia virus proteins immobilized on the ZnO nanorods
2019
Bovine leukaemia virus (BLV) proteins gp51, which are serving as antigens for specific antibodies against BLV proteins (anti-gp51), were applied as biological recognition part in the design of immunosensor devoted for the determination of anti-gp51. The efficiency of the immobilization of BLV proteins gp51 on ZnO nanorod (ZnO- NR) modified glass (ZnO-NR/glass) surface was evaluated. The formation of antigen-antibody complex on the ZnO/glass modified by the BLV proteins gp51 (gp51/ZnO-NR/glass) was investigated by the determination of changes in ZnO photoluminescence. The applicability of gp51/ZnO-NR/glass in the design of photoluminescence based immunosensor was evaluated. Bovine serum albu…
Selective Derivatization of Calix[4]arenes via Amino Groups Attached to the Wide Rim
2004
A new strategy is proposed for the synthesis of tetraether derivatives of calix[4]arenes bearing at the wide rim nitro and phthalimido groups in well defined positions. Since both groups are precursors of amino functions, calix[4]arenes substituted by different N-acylamino residues are easily available in four steps. The essential steps during the synthesis of the precursor consist in the protection of amino groups by the formation of their phthalimides followed by ipso-nitration of the remaining tert-butylphenol ether units. This nitration occurs without side reactions at the phthalimido substituted units, in contrast to simple N-acyl derivatives.
Spatial hole burning in thin-disk lasers and twisted-mode operation.
2018
Spatial hole burning prevents single-frequency operation of thin-disk lasers when the thin disk is used as a folding mirror. We present an evaluation of the saturation effects in the disk for disks acting as end-mirrors and as folding-mirrors explaining one of the main obstacles towards single-frequency operation. It is shown that a twisted-mode scheme based on a multi-order quarter-wave plate combined with a polarizer provides an almost complete suppression of spatial hole burning and creates an additional wavelength selectivity that enforces efficient single-frequency operation.
In-beam spectroscopic studies of shape coexistence and collectivity in the neutron-deficientZ≈ 82 nuclei
2016
In the present paper we focus on studies of shape coexistence in even-mass nuclei in the neutron-deficient Pb region. They are based on experiments carried out using tagging techniques in the Accelerator Laboratory of the University of Jyväskylä, Finland. Excited states in many of these nuclei can only be accessed via fusion-evaporation reactions employing high-intensity stable-ion beams. The key features in these experiments are high selectivity, clean spectra and instrumentation that enables high count rates. We review three spectroscopic highlights in this region. peerReviewed
Gas—liquid chromatographic analyses
1989
Abstract The retention (I), dispersion (IM) and selectivity (I*) indices of sixteen polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and fourteen polychlorinated dibenzofurans were determined on a low-polarity HP-5 capillary column using a gas chromatograph connected with an ion-selective detector. IM and I* values were also calculated for all 73 dibenzo-p-dioxins from the di- to the octachloro isomer and for all possible 135 chlorinated dibenzofurans based on the predicted retention index data reported earlier. The effect of the position of chlorination is shown and the results are compared with those for several series of chlorinated aromatics.
Structural Approaches to Explain the Selectivity of COX-2 Inhibitors: Is There a Common Pharmacophore?
2000
The identification and characterisation of the isoenzyme cyclooxygenase 2 (COX-2) stimulated investigations to develop efficient non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs with reduced side effects compared to standard NSAIDs. This review will focus on the structural features needed to achieve COX-2 selectivity. Five structural classes can be identified together with a class bearing little or no resemblance to one another in their molecular structure. The most interesting point is the very distinct structure/activity relationship. On the one hand only minor modifications to a particular compound induce a drastic change in its COX selectivity and on the other hand the structural prerequisites in …
Stereoselective Metabolic Activation of Dibenzo[a,l]Pyrene in the Human Mammary Carcinoma Cell Line MCF-7 Results in Formation of (-)-antiand (+)-syn…
1996
Abstract Dibenzo[a,l]pyrene (DB[a,l]P) is an important polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon because of possible human exposure and its exceptionally high carcinogenicity in rodents. We examined the metabolism of DB[a,l]P and the formation of DB[a,l]P-DNA adducts in the human mammary carcinoma cell line (MCF-7). Analysis of the DNA adducts by 33P-postlabeling, immobilized boronate chromatography, HPLC and TLC demonstrated that DB[a,l]P is stereoselectively metabolized to specific optical isomers of DB[a,l]P-11,12-diol-13,14-epoxide (DB[a,l]PDE). The major anti-DB[a,l]PDE adduct formed in DB[a,l]P-treated MCF-7 cells resulted from reaction of (-)-anti-DB[a,l]PDE with DNA whereas the two major syn-…
Hydrophobically directed aldol reactions: polystyrene-supported L-proline as a recyclable catalyst for direct asymmetric aldol reactions in the prese…
2007
A simple synthetic methodology for the preparation of a polystyrene- supported L-proline material is reported, and this material has been used as catalyst in direct asymmetric aldol reactions between several ketones and arylaldehydes to furnish aldol products in high yields and stereoselectivities. Screening of solvents showed that these reactions take place only in the presence of water or methanol, at lower levels of conversion in the latter case. This solvent effect, coupled with the observed high stereoselectivities, has been ex- Introduction In the last decade organocatalysis has became a field of great interest.[1] Organocatalysts are metal-free small organic molecules that are able t…
Selective propane oxidation over MoVSbO catalysts. On the preparation, characterization and catalytic behavior of M1 phase
2009
Nb-free (SbO)(2)M(20)O(56) catalysts (M = Mo, V) presenting pure M1 phase have been prepared by a post-synthesis treatment with hydrogen peroxide of a heat-treated MoVSbO mixed metal oxide catalyst previously prepared by hydrothermal method. The characterization of catalysts and their results for propane oxidation suggest that the optimization in the preparation of the M1 phase depends strongly on the washing procedure. The optimal removing of Sb species formed during post-synthesis treatment can explain the improvement in the catalytic activity; while the better selectivity to acrylic acid of the catalysts obtained by post-synthesis treatment can be explained by the elimination of M2 phase…
