Origin of the temperature dependence of the rate of singlet energy transfer in a three-component truxene-bridged dyads

2014

We report a truxene-based dyad built upon one donor (tri-meso-phenylzinc(II)porphyrin) and two acceptors (octa-β-alkylporphyrin free base) in which the donor exhibits free rotation around a Ctruxene-Cmeso single bond at 298 K in fluid solution but not at 77 K in a glass matrix, whereas the acceptors have very limited motion as they are blocked by β-methyl groups. This case is interesting because all the structural and spectroscopic parameters affecting the rate for singlet energy transfer according to a Förster Resonance Energy Transfer are only weakly temperature dependent, leaving only the Dexter mechanism explaining the larger variation in rate of energy transfers with the temperature h…

Bioorthogonal red and far-red fluorogenic probes for wash-free live-cell and super-resolution microscopy

2020

AbstractSmall-molecule fluorophores enable the observation of biomolecules in their native context with fluorescence microscopy. Specific labelling via bioorthogonal tetrazine chemistry confers minimal label size and rapid labelling kinetics. At the same time, fluorogenic tetrazine-dye conjugates exhibit efficient quenching of dyes prior to target binding. However, live-cell compatible long-wavelength fluorophores with strong fluorogenicity have been difficult to realize. Here, we report close proximity tetrazine-dye conjugates with minimal distance between tetrazine and fluorophore. Two synthetic routes give access to a series of cell permeable and impermeable dyes including highly fluorog…

Liposomes from α,ω-dipolar amphiphiles with a polymerizable diyne moiety in the hydrophobic chain

1982

Symmetric polymerizable α,ω-dipolar C22-diacetylenes were prepared by oxidative coupling of 10-undecynoic acid and 10-undecynol, respectively, by means of copper II salts in ethanolic solution. 10,12-Docosadiyne-1,22-diphosphate (3)—by reaction of 10,12-docosadiyne-1,22-diol (2) with POCl3—was polymerized in aqueous solution using UV irradiation to form deep blue, thermochromic solutions. By consonication of 3 with cholesterol, monolayer vesicles were formed. This was proven by encapsulation of 6-carboxyfluorescein. These monomeric vesicles were polymerized by UV light to yield stable, deep blue polymeric vesicle suspensions.

Soft hydrothermal synthesis of new microporous materials based on phosphate-like species

1994

ABSTRACTFactors controlling hydrothermal synthetic procedures are not well understood. A good knowledge of the solution chemistry of precursor species is the best reference for the design of rational procedures. Examples of the predictive character of simple models in order to rationalize complex syntheses are discussed in detail.

Electrochemical Syntheses Involving Carbon Dioxide

1990

The recent developments of electrosynthetic processes involving carbon dioxide are reviewed. Both processes involving carbon dioxide alone and electrocarboxylations are taken under consideration. The first of these two fields, mainly projected towards the production of basic chemicals such as methanol or carbon monoxide, is at present at a stage of fundamental research. Some interesting developments have recently appeared in the literature, concerning the use of electrode materials, or of transition metal complexes with particular catalytic activity. Electrocarboxylations are at a stage of more applicative development: some processes have reached the stage of pilot plant, and other have int…

Membrane Lipid-Polypeptide Molecular Associations in Non Aqueous Solvent. Effect of Phosphatidylcholine Concentration and Temperature and their Influ…

1986

Abstract The use of an Ultrastyragel 500 A column for the study of interactions between phosphatidylcholine and gramicidin A in tetra-hydrofuran is described. Analysis of vacant peak has allowed to establish the influence that eluent lipid composition, concentration of injected gramicidin and temperature have on the interaction. At 20[ddot] C, for the assayed phospholipid concentration range (0.04 to 0.14 %, w/v), the lipid/polypeptide molar binding ratio, BR, varies from 1.3 to 6.9. An increase in temperature from 20 to 40[ddot] C causes a decrease in BR of about 20 %. On the other hand, the interaction releases some of the water bound to the lipid polar head, suggesting that the binding i…

Methacrylate ester-based monolithic columns for nano-LC separation of tocopherols in vegetable oils

2010

The separation and determination of tocopherols (Ts) in vegetable oils by nano-LC chromatography with UV-vis detection using lauryl methacrylate ester-based monolithic columns has been developed. The separation of Ts was optimized in terms of mobile phase composition on the basis of the best compromise among efficiency, resolution and analysis time. Using a mobile phase composed of ACN/methanol/water, an excellent resolution between Ts was achieved within 18 min. The LODs were lower than 0.26 μg/mL, being repeatability values of retention time and peak area below 0.15 and 3.1%, respectively. The method was applied to the quantification of Ts and tocotrienols present in several vegetable oil…

Untersuchungen über die emulsionspolymerisation des acroleins. Polymere acroleine. 15. Mitteilung

1959

Die Polymerisation des Acroleins mit verschiedenen Emulgatortypen wird untersucht. Es zeigt sich, das eine Losung von Polyacrolein in wasriger schwefliger Saure ein vorzuglicher Emulgator fur die Emulsionspolymerisation von Acrolein mit Redox-Systemen ist. An diesem System wird der Einflus der Emulgatorkonzentration S, der Initiatorkonzentration ci, der Monomerkonzentration und der Temperatur gepruft. Man findet folgende Beziehungen: VBr ∼ S1/5; VBr ∼ c; und VBr ∼ M. Die experimentellen Ergebnisse werden mit den nach der Theorie von SMITH und EWART zu erwartenden verglichen und diskutiert. The polymerization of acrolein with several types of emulsifiers has been investigated. There is shown…

1977

The solution polymerization of styrene in methylene dichloride catalysed by trifluoromethanesulfonic acid takes place at a high rate even at low catalyst concentration. The S-shaped course of the conversion curves is explained by a reaction mechanism, in which the catalyst rapidly forms an inactive complex with one monomer molecule, and this monomer-acid complex is in equilibrium with the free catalyst molecule from which the propagating species are formed. Therefore, the formation of active initiating species becomes a slow process which depends also on the change of monomer concentration during polymerization. It is assumed that the active initiating species are formed from two or three m…
