Dye Derivatives (dye + derivative)
Selected AbstractsCover Picture (Isr. J. Chem.ISRAEL JOURNAL OF CHEMISTRY, Issue 3-4 20093-4/2009) Structures of E. coli Adenylate Kinase in the open (4AKE) and closed (1ANK) states with cyanine dye derivatives modeled onto residues 128 and 194 for single-molecule Forster resonance energy transfer (FRET) studies of lid dynamics. The bottom of the figure displays a sample distance-vs.-time trajectory displaying spontaneous lid open,closed transitions on the millisecond timescale. The time-dependent potential of mean force along the lid coordinate measured by single-molecule FRET is also displayed. Further information can be found in Hanson et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 104, 18055,18060 (2007). With thanks to Haw Yang. [source] Evaluation of the reduction of imidazophenazine dye derivatives under fast-atom-bombardment mass-spectrometric conditions,JOURNAL OF MASS SPECTROMETRY (INCORP BIOLOGICAL MASS SPECTROMETRY), Issue 1 2006Marina V. Kosevich Abstract Satellite [M + 2]+, and [M + 3]+ peaks accompanying the common peak of the protonated molecule [M + H]+ that are known to indicate the occurrence of a reduction process were observed in the fast atom bombardment (FAB) mass spectra of imidazophenazine dye derivatives in glycerol matrix. The distribution of the abundances in the [M + nH]+ peak group varied noticeably for different derivatives. This indicated different levels of the reduction depending on the different structure variations of the studied molecules. In the search for correlations between the mass spectral pattern and the structural features of the dyes, ab initio HF/6-31++G** quantum chemical calculations were performed. They revealed that the abundances of the [M + 2]+, and [M + 3]+ ions show growth proportional to the decrease of the energy of the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital, i.e. proportional to the increase of the electron affinity of the dye molecule. A method for rapid screening of reductive properties of sets of dye derivatives on the basis of the FAB mass spectral data is discussed. Copyright © 2005 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. [source] Fluorescent polymer particles by emulsion and miniemulsion polymerizationJOURNAL OF POLYMER SCIENCE (IN TWO SECTIONS), Issue 6 2003Frédéric Tronc Abstract We describe the synthesis and characterization of latex particles labeled with a brightly fluorescent yellow dye (HY) based on the benzothioxanthene ring structure. Three dye derivatives were synthesized with different spacers connecting the HY nucleus to a methacrylate group. For one of the dyes (HY2CMA, rA), we show that the reactivity ratios with styrene (rA = 0.71, rB = 0.25) and butyl methacrylate (rA = 0.87, rB = 0.14) should lead to random dye incorporation if the amount of dye in the feed is small. Seeded emulsion polymerization fails to lead to significant dye incorporation unless large amounts of nonionic surfactant are present. In contrast, miniemulsion polymerization worked well to yield latex particles of polystyrene, poly(butyl methacrylate), and poly(methyl methacrylate) with high monomer conversion and essentially quantitative dye incorporation. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
