Ambident PCN Heterocycles: N- and P-Phosphanylation of Lithium 1,3-Benzazaphospholides
2009
Synthetic and structural aspects of the phosphanylation of 1,3-benzazaphospholides 1(Li), ambident benzofused azaphosphacyclopentadienides, are presented. The unusual properties of phospholyl-1,3,2-diazaphospholes inspired us to study the coupling of 1(Li) with chlorodiazaphospholene 2, which led to the N-substituted product 3. Reaction of 1(Li) with chlorodiphenyl- and chlorodicyclohexylphosphane likewise gave N-phosphanylbenzazaphospholes 4 and 5, whereas with the more bulky di-tert-butyl- and di-1-adamantylchlorophosphanes, the diphosphanes 6 and 7 are obtained; in the case of 7 they are isolated as a dimeric LiCl(THF) adduct. Structural information was provided by single-crystal X-ray d…
Reaction of 3-Amino-1,2,4-Triazole with Diethyl Phosphite and Triethyl Orthoformate: Acid-Base Properties and Antiosteoporotic Activities of the Prod…
2017
The reaction of diethyl phosphite with triethyl orthoformate and a primary amine followed by hydrolysis is presented, and the reaction was suitable for the preparation of (aminomethylene)bisphosphonates. 3-Amino-1,2,4-triazole was chosen as an interesting substrate for this reaction because it possesses multiple groups that can serve as the amino component in the reaction-namely, the side-chain and triazole amines. This substrate readily forms 1,2,4-triazolyl-3-yl-aminomethylenebisphosphonic acid (compound 1) as a major product, along with N-ethylated bisphosphonates as side products. The in vitro antiproliferative effects of the synthesized aminomethylenebisphosphonic acids against J774E m…
Assay for O6-alkylguanine-DNA-alkyltransferase using oligonucleotides containing O6-methylguanine in a BamHI recognition site as substrate
1992
Abstract Double-stranded oligonucleotides, 40 bases in length containing an O 6 -methylguanine in a Bam HI restriction site, were developed as substrates for the determination of human O 6 -alkylguanine-DNA-alkyltransferase (AGT). The assay proved highly sensitive and quantitative. After incubation of the 5′-end-labeled oligonucleotides with cell homogenates of peripheral blood lymphocytes, the DNA was digested with Bam HI. Cleavage with this restriction enzyme did not occur in the O 6 -methylguanine-containing oligonucleotide unless the fragment was repaired. The cleaved oligonucleotide was separated from the intact parent oligonucleotide by reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatogr…
Die dynamische31Phosphor-Magnetresonanz-Spektroskopie des M. quadriceps: Therapiebedingte Veränderungen bei arterieller Verschlußkrankheit
1997
PURPOSE: The present investigation aimed at examining changes in muscle metabolism caused by treatment of arterial occlusive disease, using dynamic 31-phosphorus methods. METHOD: 32 patients with arterial occlusive disease were examined in a 1.5 T apparatus with a 6 cm surface coil before and after treatment. The metabolic changes in the quadriceps muscles were visualised during a 36 s phosphorus spectrum during rest, exercise (isometric and isotonic) and during a period of recovery. RESULTS: Vascular therapy resulted in a significant increase in the duration of both types of exercise during dynamic phosphorus spectroscopy (isometric exercise: 282 s against 199 s: p = 0.002, isotonic exerci…
High pancuronium sensitivity of axonal nicotinic-acetylcholine receptors in humans during organophosphate intoxication.
1991
The effect of low-dose pancuronium on neuromuscular transmission was studied in 2 patients during the early and late stages of severe organophosphate intoxication. Single evoked compound muscle action potentials (CMAP) were followed by repetitive discharges and a decrement-increment (D-I) phenomenon with 10-, 20-, and 50-Hz supramaximal nerve stimulation. Intravenous pancuronium, 1 mg, abolished the D-I phenomenon, while the repetitive discharges of the CMAP were only partially reduced. It is postulated, that the disappearance of the D-I phenomenon with persistence of the CMAP repetitive discharges results from blockade of nicotinic-acetylcholine receptors located on the terminal axon respo…
The influence of solid retention time on IFAS-MBR systems: analysis of system behavior.
2018
A University of Cape Town Integrated Fixed-Film Activated Sludge Membrane Bioreactor (UCT-IFAS-MBR) pilot plant was operated at different values of the sludge retention time (SRT). Three SRTs were investigated at different durations: indefinitely, 30 and 15 days. The organic carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus removal, kinetic/stoichiometric parameters, membrane fouling tendency and sludge filtration properties were assessed. The findings showed that by decreasing the SRT, the pilot plant could maintain excellent carbon removal efficiencies throughout the experiments. In contrast, the biological carbon removal showed a slight nitrification and was slightly affected by the decrease of the SRT, s…
Cyclodextrines confinantes : synthèse, propriétés complexantes et utilisation en catalyse asymétrique
2014
This manuscript is concerned with the design of novel catalytic systems derived from metallocyclodextrins. The first part describes new ways of functionalising the cyclodextrin primary face regioselectively for accessing inherently chiral P,P’ chelators. These heterodentate ligands gavequantitatively cis-chelate complexes with various d8 cations. Their rhodium(I) complexes were assessed in the asymmetric hydrogenation and hydroformylation of prochiral olefins. Thecoordination and catalytic properties of two phosphines derived from a- and b-cyclodextrin are also reported. With their phosphorus lone pair pointing toward the CD core, these confining ligands force the coordinated metal centre t…
DifferingDaphnia magnaassimilation efficiencies for terrestrial, bacterial, and algal carbon and fatty acids
2014
There is considerable interest in the pathways by which carbon and growth-limiting elemental and biochemical nutrients are supplied to upper trophic levels. Fatty acids and sterols are among the most important molecules transferred across the plant-animal interface of food webs. In lake ecosystems, in addition to phytoplankton, bacteria and terrestrial organic matter are potential trophic resources for zooplankton, especially in those receiving high terrestrial organic matter inputs. We therefore tested carbon, nitrogen, and fatty acid assimilation by the crustacean Daphnia magna when consuming these resources. We fed Daphnia with monospecific diets of high-quality (Cryptomonas marssonii) a…
Solid-phase extraction disks for determining pesticides from soil leachates
1997
Abstract Analytical techniques are essential for identifying and quantifying the chemicals present in environmental samples. A method for extracting pesticides from soil leachates was developed. The proposed method is based on solid-phase extraction and uses 47-mm disks of octyl-bonded silica. Analysis was carried out by gas chromatography with nitrogen–phosphorus and electron-capture detectors. Several factors that can provide better pesticide recoveries with this extraction method are discussed. These factors are: the kind and percentage of organic solvent used in the extraction procedure, the volume and the ionic strength (adding 15% of NaCl) of the aqueous phase which passes through the…
Transient and Steady-State Radiation Response of Phosphosilicate Optical Fibers: Influence of H2 Loading
2019
The radiation response of a phosphorus-doped multimode optical fiber is investigated under both transient (pulsed X-rays) and steady-state ( $\gamma $ - and X-rays) irradiations. The influence of a H2 preloading on the fiber radiation-induced attenuation (RIA) in the 300–2000-nm wavelength range has been characterized. To better understand the impact of this treatment, online behaviors of fiber samples containing different amounts of gas are compared from glass saturation (100%) to less than 1%. In addition to these in situ experiments, additional postirradiation spectroscopic techniques have been performed such as electron paramagnetic resonance or luminescence measurements to identify the…
