DNA-binding of zinc(II) and nickel(II) salphen-like complexes extrapolated at 1 M salt concentration: Removing the ionic strength bias in physiologic…
2020
Abstract The DNA-binding of two salphen-like metal complexes of nickel(II) (1) and zinc(II) (2) was investigated in different ionic strength solutions by absorption spectroscopy. The data analysis allowed us to obtain the values of their extrapolated DNA-binding constant in physiological conditions, with DNA-binding strength in the order Ni > Zn, and to give relative weight to the electrostatic and non-electrostatic contributions to their DNA-interaction.
Diphenoxido‐Bridged Co II and Zn II Complexes of Tripodal N 2 O 2 Ligands: Stabilisation of M II ‐Coordinated Phenoxyl Radical Species
2010
Three new tripodal ligands with an N 2 O 2 donor set, namely 2-tert-butyl-6-({(2-hydroxybenzyl)[2-(2-pyridyl)ethyl]amino}-methyl)-4-methylphenol (H 2 L 1 ), 2-tert-butyl-6-({(2-hydroxybenzyl)[2-(2-pyridyl)ethyl]amino}methyl)-4-methoxy-phenol (H 2 L 2 ) and 2-tert-butyl-6-({[2-(dimethylamino)ethyl]-(2-hydroxybenzyl)amino}methyl)-4-methoxyphenol (H 2 L 3 ) have been synthesised. Treatment of the ligands with Co-(CH 3 CO 2 ) 2 ·4H 2 O or [Zn(H 2 O) 6 ][ClO 4 ] 2 in the presence of Et 3 N provides the corresponding Co II and Zn" complexes of composition [M II 2 (L 1 ) 2 ] [M = Co (1) (single-crystals are a solvate with the composition [Co II 2 (L 1 ) 2 ]·2CHCl 3 , i.e. 1·2CHCl 3 ); M = Zn (2)],…
Determination of Cd, Cu, Pb and Zn content of infant formulas by differential pulse anodic stripping voltammetry (DPASV).
1994
The differential pulse anodic stripping voltammetry (DPASV) method described is based on the one reported by Hasse et al., but adapted to normal laboratory conditions. The values obtained in the estimation of the analytical parameters (linearity, detection and quantification limits, precision and accuracy) show that in the conditions described the method is sensitive enough, reliable and useful for determining these elements in infant formulas. A comparison between DPASV and atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS) methods in the conditions described here shows that the former is less sensitive but that they are similar in precision. The cadmium, copper, lead and zinc contents of different type…
New synthesis of some 1,2,5-benzothiadiazcpinc 1,1-dioxide derivatives. I
1979
2-Nitrobenzenesulfonyl chloride reacts with ω-aminoacetophenone and 4-amino-3,5-dimethyl-isoxazole to give 3 and 7, respectively. Reduction of 3 with zinc powder and acetic acid afforded the 2,5-dihydro- and 2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1,2,5-benzothiadiazepine I,1-dioxide derivatives (4 and 5). Catalytic hydrogenolysis of 7 and successive cyclization of the intermediate 8 gave the 3-ace-thyl-2,5-dihydro-4-methyl-1,2,5-benzothiadiazepine 1,1-dioxide (9). The structures were assigned on the basis of correct elemental data and spectroscopic evidences.

ChemInform Abstract: Enantioselective Zinc-Mediated Conjugate Addition of Terminal Alkynes to Enones.
2013
Zinc for conjugate alkynylation: The enantioselective conjugate addition of terminal alkynes to 2-arylidene-1,3-diketones in the presence of diethylzinc and a catalytic amount of (R)-VANOL has been developed. The reaction can be applied to different aromatic and heteroaromatic alkynes and enones, giving the expected products in good yield and with enantiomeric excesses up to 91%. The products can be enantiomerically enriched up to 99% ee by crystallization (see scheme).
Label-Free Pyrophosphate Recognition with Functionalized Asymmetric Nanopores
2016
[EN] The label¿free detection of pyrophosphate (PPi) anions with a nanofluidic sensing device based on asymmetric nanopores is demonstrated. The pore surface is functionalized with zinc complexes based on two di(2¿picolyl)amine [bis(DPA)] moieties using carbodiimide coupling chemistry. The complexation of zinc (Zn2+) ion is achieved by exposing the modified pore to a solution of zinc chloride to form bis(Zn2+¿DPA) complexes. The chemical functionalization is demonstrated by recording the changes in the observed current¿voltage (I¿V) curves before and after pore modification. The bis(Zn2+¿DPA) complexes on the pore walls serve as recognition sites for pyrophosphate anion. The experimental re…
The transcription factor ZEB1 (deltaEF1) promotes tumour cell dedifferentiation by repressing master regulators of epithelial polarity.
2007
Epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) is implicated in the progression of primary tumours towards metastasis and is likely caused by a pathological activation of transcription factors regulating EMT in embryonic development. To analyse EMT-causing pathways in tumouri-genesis, we identified transcriptional targets of the E-cadherin repressor ZEB1 in invasive human cancer cells. We show that ZEB1 repressed multiple key determinants of epithelial differentiation and cell–cell adhesion, including the cell polarity genes Crumbs3, HUGL2 and Pals1-associated tight junction protein. ZEB1 associated with their endogenous promoters in vivo, and strongly repressed promotor activities in reporter …
Influence of alcohol in mouthwashes containing triclosan and zinc: an experimental gingivitis study
2005
Objectives: An experimental gingivitis model was used to analyse the influence of alcohol in mouthwashes containing 0.15% triclosan and zinc chloride on the formation of supragingival plaque, the development of gingivitis and the appearance of adverse events. Material and Methods: Using a double-blind crossover design, 30 subjects underwent two consecutive experimental phases with two 0.15% triclosan and zinc chloride mouthwashes, differentiated mainly by their excipient (hydroalcoholic or aqueous). In each phase, the subjects discontinued all oral hygiene measures and were treated solely with the randomly assigned experimental mouthwash for 21 days. Each experimental phase was preceded by …
