Cyclic tetraureas with variable flexibility--synthesis, crystal structures and properties.
2008
Macrocyclic molecules containing several amide or urea functions may serve as anion receptors. We describe the synthesis of 32-membered macrocycles, in which four rigid xanthene units (X) and/or diphenyl ether units (D) as flexible analogues are linked via urea groups. All six possible combinations of these units (XXXX, XXXD, XXDD, XDXD, XDDD and DDDD) were synthesized and two examples were characterised by single-crystal X-ray analyses (DDDD and two structures for XXXD). Both macrocycles showed distinct differences in their overall conformation and consequently in their hydrogen-bonding pattern. Hydrogen-bonded solvent molecules are found for both compounds and intramolecular hydrogen bond…
Improved co-oxidation of β-carotene to β-ionone using xanthine oxidase-generated reactive oxygen species in a multiphasic system
2007
beta-Ionone, an aroma compound exhibiting flower notes, can be obtained from beta-carotene in a cooxidation system utilizing xanthine oxidase-generated reactive oxygen species (ROS). ROS have to be controlled as, although they can give rise to beta-ionone, they may also degrade it. In this work, the biotransformation of beta-carotene into beta-ionone was investigated in systems containing variable proportions of decane to extract beta-ionone before degradation. The use of 50% or 90% decane resulted in increased production yields. Tween 80, which was added to further improve the production, slightly decreased the reactivity of the medium and the extraction of beta-carotene, but increased the…
The relative stability of xylazine hydrochloride polymorphous forms
2009
All four known xylazine hydrochloride polymorphous forms were obtained and their relative stabilities were compared directly at three different temperatures. At higher temperatures, it is possible to determine the relative stability of all forms directly by measuring the changes in the composition of the mixtures of two polymorphous forms using powder x-ray diffraction methods. At lower temperatures, a solvent was added to the mixture and the changes in composition were determined. Polymorph transition temperatures were determined directly. To predict the transition temperature which was not found using the direct method, the polymorph melting data and determined transition temperatures wer…
Physicochemical Investigation of Nanostructures in Liquid Phases: Ytterbium Nitrate Ionic Clusters Confined in Ytterbium Bis(2-ethylhexyl) Sulfosucci…
2007
The confinement of finite amounts of ytterbium nitrate in the nanoscopic space of ytterbium bis(2-ethylhexyl)sulfosuccinate (Yb(DEHSS) 3 ) reversed micelles dispersed in n-heptane has been investigated by UV-vis-NIR, FT-IR, and SAXS. The analysis of the experimental data is consistent with the hypothesis that Yb(NO 3 ) 3 is distributed among reversed micelles as small size ionic clusters surrounded by the Yb 3+ surfactant counterions and anionic heads while the surfactant alkyl chains point toward the solvent medium. As a consequence of confinement and interfacial effects, the ionic clusters display photophysical properties different from those in the bulk state or isolated species. Moreove…
Novel group 4b ansa-metallocene complexes with the shortest bridge: [1,1′-isopropylydene-3,3′-di-t.Bu-bis(η5-cyclopentadienyl)] Ti and Zr dichlorides
1997
Abstract Reaction of [1,1′-isopropylidene-3,3′-di-tert.butyl-bis(η5-cyclopentadienide)] dilithium with TiCl3, followed by treatment with HCl, and ZrCl4 in various solvent mixtures in the temperature range 0–50°C gives corresponding ansa-metallocene dichlorides as mixtures of the anti/syn-isomers, 1:1. The crystal and molecular structures of three of the four isomers were determined, i.e. rac(anti)-[1,1′-isopropylidene-3,3′-di-tert.butyl-bis(η5-cyclopentadienyl)]TiCl2, space group B2/b, rac(anti)-[1,1′-isopropylidene-3,3′-di-tert.butyl-bis(η5-cyclopentadienyl)]ZrCl2, space group P212121, and meso(syn)-1,1′-[isopropylidene-3,3′-di-tert.butyl-bis(η5-cyclopentadienyl)]ZrCl2, space group P21/n.
Analytical comparison and sensory representativity of SAFE, SPME, and Purge and Trap extracts of volatile compounds from pea flour
2012
Pisum sativum is of great economic and nutritional interest due to its protein content. Nevertheless, pea products are underused as a protein source in human food because of their strong beany flavour. Therefore, the objective of this study was to select an efficient and representative method to extract volatile molecules of pea flour. In the first step, three extraction methods were chosen: solid phase micro extraction (SPME); Purge and Trap extraction and solvent assisted flavour evaporation (SAFE). The corresponding extracts were analysed by gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry. In the second step, the sensory representativity of the extracts was assessed either by direct ga…
Impact of lipid extraction on the dearomatisation of an Eisenia foetida protein powder
2010
www.elsevier.com/locate/foodchem ; FSTA:2010-Sp0197; International audience; Delipidation was studied as a way to dearomatise a non-conventional protein powder obtained from Eisenia foetida earthworms. In the first step, we studied the impact of several factors such as solvent type, extraction method and particle size on the yield of extracted lipids. Lipid extraction from samples was considerably improved using an ultrasound method with a chloroform/methanol mixture and small particle size. In the second step, the volatile compounds were extracted from the delipidated protein powder by the SAFE extraction method and by the HS-SPME method, and were further analysed by GC-MS. The chloroform/…
Straightforward access to water-soluble unsymmetrical sulfoxanthene dyes: application to the preparation of far-red fluorescent dyes with large stoke…
2014
An efficient synthesis of water-soluble unsymmetrical sulforhodamine/sulforhodol fluorophores containing a single julolidine fragment is presented. Owing to their valuable spectral properties in aqueous buffers, these dyes, especially those bearing a free aniline or phenol moiety, are valuable components of fluorogenic probes for a variety of biosensing applications. A further extension of this synthetic methodology to unusual phenols, namely 7-N,N-dialkylamino-4-hydroxy coumarins has enabled us to provide a new family water-soluble dyes of large Stokes’ shift with far-red spectral features.
