Suppression of intestinal microbiota-dependent production of pro-atherogenic trimethylamine N-oxide by shifting L-carnitine microbial degradation.

2014

Abstract Aims Trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO) is produced in host liver from trimethylamine (TMA). TMAO and TMA share common dietary quaternary amine precursors, carnitine and choline, which are metabolized by the intestinal microbiota. TMAO recently has been linked to the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis and severity of cardiovascular diseases. We examined the effects of anti-atherosclerotic compound meldonium, an aza-analogue of carnitine bioprecursor gamma-butyrobetaine (GBB), on the availability of TMA and TMAO. Main methods Wistar rats received L-carnitine, GBB or choline alone or in combination with meldonium. Plasma, urine and rat small intestine perfusate samples were assayed for L-car…

A gas chromatography-mass spectrometric method to determine skin-whitening agents in cosmetic products.

2010

An analytical method is proposed here to determine three allowed (kojic acid, azelaic acid and arbutin) and two forbidden (resorcinol and hydroquinone) skin-whitening agents in cosmetics. The method is based on gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometric detection, which allows the two prohibited target compounds to be identified unequivocally by means of their mass spectra acquired in full-scan mode at the retention time of these compounds. Owing to their low volatility, target analytes are derivatized using N,O-bis-(trimethylsilyl)trifluoroacetamide (BSTFA) (containing 1% trimethylchlorosylane) prior to injection into the chromatographic system. The accuracy and precision of the pr…

Chromatographic and mass spectrometric characteristics of 20-dihydroaldosterone.

1992

The 20 alpha-reduced derivative of aldosterone, 20 alpha-dihydroaldosterone, was needed as reference compound in order to continue the studies on 18-hydroxylation in the Y-1 adrenal cell line. It was obtained by reduction of aldosterone with sodium borohydride. Analysis of the products of the reaction as methoxime trimethylsilyl (MO-TMS) derivatives by gas chromatography (GC) and GC-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) showed three possible forms of the compound. Their identification was confirmed by comparison with the products obtained by stereospecific reduction of aldosterone using 3 alpha,20 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase. Chromatographic behavior and mass spectra are given for the three forms…

The (2-phenyl-2-trimethylsilyl)ethyl-(PTMSEL)-linker in the synthesis of glycopeptide partial structures of complex cell surface glycoproteins.

2003

The (2-phenyl-2-trimethylsilyl)ethyl-(PTMSEL) linker represents a novel fluoride-sensitive anchor for the solid-phase synthesis of protected peptides and glycopeptides. Its cleavage is achieved under almost neutral conditions using tetrabutylammonium fluoride trihydrate in dichloromethane thus allowing the construction of complex molecules sensitive to basic and acidic media commonly required for the cleavage of standard linker systems. The advantages of the PTMSEL linker are demonstrated in the synthesis of glycopeptides from the liver intestine (LI)-cadherin and the mucin MUC1, bearing carbohydrate moieties such as N-linked chitobiose or O-linked sialyl-T(N)-residues. The synthesis of the…

A hybrid bioinspired material with manganese(II) complexes grafted on the surface of a mesostructured porous silica is investigated. The Mn sites mimic the manganese-dependent dioxygenase (MndD), which is an enzyme that catalyses the oxidation of catechol derivatives. The metal complexes were introduced in the silica using a dinuclear complex [Mn2L2(Cl)2(μ-Cl)2] as a precursor with a clickable ligand N,N′-bis[(pyridin-2-yl)methyl]prop-2-yn-1-amine (L). Azide moieties covalently grafted on MCM-41 type mesoporous silica were utilised to anchor the manganese complex through Huisgen cycloaddition using CuBr(PPh3)3 as a catalyst. A second functional group – trimethylsilyl or pyridine—was grafted…

Efficient Synthesis of β-Halogeno Protected L-Alanines and Their β-Phosphonium Derivatives.

2003

Abstract Ring opening of oxazolines, prepared from l -serinates, with trimethylsilyl halides (TMSX) led to β-halogeno-N-benzoyl-α-amino esters in good to excellent yields. Quaternization of triphenylphosphine by the β-bromo or -iodo amino esters gave the corresponding β-phosphonium salts in overall yields of up to 93% and with e.e. >96%. Hydrolysis of the ester function afforded the phosphonium salt bearing an N-benzoyl-α-amino acid substituent, with partial racemization. However, the reaction of the TMSX with the carboxylic salt, prepared by saponification of the starting oxazoline ester, furnished the corresponding β-halogeno-N-benzoyl-α-amino acids in 70–95% yields. Quaternization of tri…

New nitrene functionalizations onto sidewalls of carbon nanotubes and their spectroscopic analysis

2010

Abstract The reactivity of p -toluenesulfonyl, methylsulfonyl and trimethylsilyl nitrene, derived from the corresponding azides, was studied towards single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNT) prepared by electric arc or HiPCO (High-pressure CO conversion) methods. The functionalized SWCNTs were analyzed by Raman, IR, and VIS/NIR spectroscopy. The spectroscopic results indicated that covalent modification of the SWCNTs was successful. While the IR measurements gave evidence of successful reaction in all studied cases, the Raman measurements indicated differences in the reactivity of the two tube types and between different nitrenes. VIS/NIR spectrum was measured for reaction with p -toluenesulfo…

2004

The preparation of a family of dinuclear monocyclopentadienyl imidoniobium and -tantalum complexes was achieved by two different synthetic routes. The diimido complexes [{M(Cp′)Cl2}2(μ-1,i-NC6H4N)] [Cp′ = η5-C5H4SiMe3, M = Nb, i = 4 (1); Cp′ = η5-C5H4SiMe3, M = Nb, i = 3 (2); Cp′ = η5-C5H4SiMe3, M = Nb, i = 2 (3); Cp′ = η5-C5Me5, M = Nb, i = 4 (4); Cp′ = η5-C5Me5, M = Nb, i = 3 (5); Cp′ = η5-C5H4SiMe3, M = Ta, i = 4 (6); Cp′ = η5-C5H4SiMe3, M = Ta, i = 3 (7)] were prepared by the reaction of one equivalent of the trichloro precursor [{MCl3}2(μ-1,i-NC6H4N)] (M = Nb, Ta, i = 4, 3 or 2) with two equivalents of either C5H4(SiMe3)2 or C5Me5(SiMe3). Complexes 1−7 can also be prepared by the react…
