Self-assembly of fluorescent diimidazolium salts: tailor properties of the aggregates changing alkyl chain features
2016
Searching for new fluorescent organic salts to be used in biomedical and electrochemical field, we conjugated properties of imidazolium salts with the ones of naphthalene diimide core and we obtained some N,N′-bis-(1-alkyl-3-propylimidazolium)naphthalene diimide diiodides. We took into account alkyl chains going from hexyl to dodecyl, as well as hydrogenated and fluorinated alkyl tails. After determination of their thermal behaviour by differential scanning calorimetry, concentration-, and temperature-dependent spectroscopic studies (UV-vis and fluorescence) were performed evidencing the occurrence of isodesmic and enthalpy-driven self-assembly processes. Properties of aggregates were also …
Spectrophotometric determination of cystine by formation of an o-phthalaldehyde/N-acetyl-l-cysteine derivative
1989
Abstract Cystine reacts with o -phthalaldehyde (OPA) in the absence and presence of a thiol compound to yield different compounds. The use of N -acetyl- l -cysteine as thiol leads to the formation of two derivatives, likely simple and double isoindoles, where the disulfide bond remains unbroken. In contrast, mercaptoethanol gives rise to the reduction of the amino acid to form a cysteine derivative. Obtaining cystine isoindoles makes it possible to spectrophotometrically determine the amino acid after Chromatographic separation and is further evidence of the large stabilization effect produced by N -acetyl- l -cysteine in the formation of OPA-thiol derivatives.
Cyclocondensation reaction of 1,2-diamino-4-methylbenzene andp-substituted acetophenones
1993
1,2-Diamino-4-methylbenzene 1 reacts in the presence of sulphuric acid with 4-substituted acetophenones 2a-e yielding 2,4-diaryl-2,3-dihydro-2,8-dimethyl-1H-1,5-benzodiazepines 3a-e and as minor component 2,4-diaryl-2,3-dihydro-2,7-dimethyl-1H-1,5-benzodiazepines 4a-e. The ratio 3:4 is in the range of 7:3. The structure determination of the regioisomers was performed by NOE measurements.
Multinuclear NMR study of 1,3,3-trimethylbicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-one (fenchone) and its six monochlorinated derivatives
1990
1H, 13C and 17O NMR spectra of fenchone and six monochlorofenchones have been recorded. The second-order 1H NMR spectra were analysed by an iterative computer program. The 1H and 13C chlorine-induced substituent chemical shifts (SCS) were calculated. The vicinal coupling constants proved to be essential in the assignment of the chemical shifts of the geminal methyls. No clear correlation was observed between the chemical shifts of the carbonyl oxygen and the carbonyl carbon. All monochlorofenchones were previously unknown compounds and were synthesized for this work.
Radioactively labelled epoxides part II. (1) tritium labelled cyclohexene oxide, transstilbene oxide and phenanthrene 9,10-oxide
1980
Tritium labelled cyclohexene oxide, trans-stilbene oxide and phenanthrene 9,10-oxide were prepared with specific activities of 0.7 - 1.1 mCi per mmole starting with monoor diketo compounds. Tritium was introduced by reducing the ketone precursors with tritiated complex metal hydrides. The resulting alcohols were transformed to the epoxides by methods described for the unlabelled compounds. The syntheses require only two or three steps and yield cyclohexene oxide, trans-stilbene oxide and phenanthrene 9,10-oxide, important substrates for the study of epoxide hydratase and glutathione S-transferases in high radiochemical purity.
The Creolophins: A Family of Linear Triquinanes fromCreolophus cirrhatus (Basidiomycete)
2007
Complicatic acid and five novel linear triquinanes were isolated from mycelial cultures of Creolophus cirrhatus. The creolophins A, C, D, and E represent a novel type of highly oxidized triquinane sesquiterpenoids. Whereas those compounds with a secondary alcohol moiety in ring A are stable, the exomethylene ketone creolophin E (5) partly dimerized during workup to form the decacyclic 1,4-dioxepin-6-one neocreolophin (6). Compounds 5 and 6 display cytotoxic activities against several tumor cell lines.(© Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 69451 Weinheim, Germany, 2007)

Synthesis, Structure and Catalytic Properties of Dinuclear Mo-VI Complexes with Ditopic Diaminotetraphenols
2013
MoVI complexes with novel ditopic diaminotetraphenol ligands have been prepared by using a one-pot procedure in methanol or DMSO with [MoO2(acac)2] (acac = acetylacetonate) as the molybdenum source. The complexes were characterised with X-ray diffraction, NMR spectroscopic studies, elemental analysis and IR spectroscopy. In the solid state, the compounds represent either a rodlike molecular or oxido-bridged polymeric structure. The catalytic activity of the complexes was investigated by oxidising benzyl alcohol and 1-phenylethanol with hydrogen peroxide to the corresponding aldehyde and ketone, respectively. Furthermore, the catalytic activity was surveyed also in epoxidation of cyclooctene.
The water association band as a marker of hydrogen bonds in trehalose amorphous matrices
2017
The relevant role played by residual water in modulating the dynamics and structure of a protein, a matrix and their coupling has been thoroughly studied in bioprotective amorphous saccharide matrices via experiments and simulations. In order to better characterize this residual water and the hydrogen bond structures in which it is involved, in this work infrared spectroscopy experiments are conducted on trehalose-water systems. The properties of water are inferred from the study of a peculiar infrared band, the water association band, which we exploited as a marker of the hydrogen bonds in which water is involved. Our aim was the identification of populations of water molecules, which give…
Langmuir and Langmuir-Blodgett films of multifunctional, amphiphilic polyethers with cholesterol moieties.
2010
Langmuir films of multifunctional, hydrophilic polyethers containing a hydrophobic cholesterol group (Ch) were studied by surface pressure-mean molecular area (π-mmA) measurements and Brewster angle microscopy (BAM). The polyethers were either homopolymers or diblock copolymers of linear poly(glycerol) (lPG), linear poly(glyceryl glycidyl ether) (lPGG), linear poly(ethylene glycol) (lPEG), or hyperbranched poly(glycerol) (hbPG). Surface pressure measurements revealed that the homopolymers lPG and hbPG did not stay at the water surface after spreading and solvent evaporation, in contrast to lPEG. Because of the incorporation of the Ch group in the polymer structure, stable Langmuir films wer…
