Abstract Sequential addition of 1,1,,1,,-phosphinetriyltripiperidine and 1,3-diaminobenzene or resorcinol to toluene solutions of (cyclooctadiene)palladium dichloride [Pd(cod)(Cl)2] under nitrogen in "one pot" almost quantitatively yielded the aminophosphine-based pincer complexes {[C6H3 -2,6-(XP{piperidinyl}2)2]Pd(Cl)} (X=NH 1; X=O 2). Complex 1 (and to a minor extent 2) proved to be efficient Sonogashira catalysts, which allow the quantitative coupling of various electronically deactivated and/or sterically hindered and functionalized aryl iodides and aryl bromides with several alkynes as coupling partners within very short reaction times and low catalyst loadings. Importantly, in contrast to most of the Sonogashira catalysts, which either are both air- and moisture-sensitive and/or require the addition of co-catalysts, such as copper(I) iodide [CuI], for example, or a large excess of an amine, the coupling reactions were carried out without the use of amines, co-catalysts or other aditives and without exclusion of air and moisture. Moreover, the desired products were exclusively formed (no side-products were detected) without employing an excess of one of the substrates. Ethylene glycol and potassium phosphate (K3PO4) were found to be the ideal solvent and base for this transformation. Experimental observations strongly indicate that palladium nanoparticles are not the catalytically active form of 1 and 2. On the other hand, their transformation into another homogeneous catalytically active species cannot be excluded. [source]


Fabrication of Organized Porphyrin-Nanotube-Attached Heat-Sensitive Polyelectrolyte Capsules,

ADVANCED FUNCTIONAL MATERIALS, Issue 16 2006
S. Sadasivan
Abstract A facile method of connecting fluorescent meso -tetrakis(4-sulfonatophenyl)porphine tetranion nanotubes to polyelectrolyte capsules is developed. Heat-sensitive robust polyelectrolyte capsules consisting of poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride) and poly(styrene sulfonate) multilayers have been fabricated using the conventional layer-by-layer technique. Supramolecular aggregation of porphyrin monomers to nanotubes is induced in the microenvironment of the capsules by sequential addition of salt and acid. Scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and atomic force microscopy images reveal satellite-like structures consisting of a central capsule core with porphyrin nanotubes emerging radially from the capsule walls. The growth and the distribution of the porphyrin units have been monitored by UV-vis spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy, and confocal laser scanning microscopy. Changing the temperature alters the dimensions and the arrangement of the nanotubes on the capsule walls. Such an attachment of porphyrin tubes onto robust functional capsules should help in developing an artificial light-harvesting system. [source]


Regioselective Palladium(0)-Catalyzed Cross-Coupling Reactions and Metal-Halide Exchange Reactions of Tetrabromothiophene: Optimization, Scope and Limitations

ng Thanh Tłng
Abstract The Suzuki reaction of tetrabromothiophene with arylboronic acids provides a regioselective approach to various 5-aryl-2,3,4-tribromothiophenes, symmetrical 2,5-diaryl-3,4-dibromothiophenes, and tetraarylthiophenes. Unsymmetrical 2,5-diaryl-3,4-dibromothiophenes are prepared by Suzuki reaction of 5-aryl-2,3,4-tribromothiophenes. Tetraarylthiophenes containing two different types of aryl groups are obtained by Suzuki reactions of 2,5-diaryl-3,4-dibromothiophenes. During the optimization of the conditions of each individual reaction, the solvent, the catalyst and the temperature play an important role. In several cases, classical conditions [use of tetrakis(triphenylphosphane)palladium(0), Pd(PPh3)4, as the catalyst] gave excellent yields. The yields of those transformations which failed or proceeded sluggishly could be significantly improved by application of a new biarylmonophosphine ligand developed by Buchwald and co-workers. Regioselective metal-halide exchange reactions of tetrabromothiophene provide a convenient approach to various 2,5-disubstituted 3,4-dibromothiophenes. 5-Alkyl-2-trimethylsilyl-3,4-dibromothiophenes could be prepared in one pot by sequential addition of trimethylchlorosilane and alkyl bromides. The reaction of tetrabromothiophene with methyl chloroformate and subsequent Suzuki reactions afforded 3,4-diaryl-2,5-bis(methoxycarbonyl)thiophenes. [source]


Synthesis and characterization of multiblock copolymers composed of poly(5-methyl-5-benzyloxycarbonyl-1,3-dioxan-2-one) outer blocks and poly(L -lactide) inner blocks

Abstract Ethylene glycol (EG) initiated, hydroxyl-telechelic poly(L -lactide) (PLLA) was employed as a macroinitiator in the presence of a stannous octoate catalyst in the ring-opening polymerization of 5-methyl-5-benzyloxycarbonyl-1,3-dioxan-2-one (MBC) with the goal of creating A,B,A-type block copolymers having polycarbonate outer blocks and a polyester center block. Because of transesterification reactions involving the PLLA block, multiblock copolymers of the A,(B,A)n,B,A type were actually obtained, where A is poly(5-methyl-5-benzyloxycarbonyl-1,3-dioxan-2-one), B is PLLA, and n is greater than 0. 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy of the product copolymers yielded evidence of the multiblock structure and provided the lactide sequence length. For a PLLA macroinitiator with a number-average molecular weight of 2500 g/mol, the product block copolymer had an n value of 0.8 and an average lactide sequence length (consecutive C6H8O4 units uninterrupted by either an EG or MBC unit) of 6.1. For a PLLA macroinitiator with a number-average molecular weight of 14,400 g/mol, n was 18, and the average lactide sequence length was 5.0. Additional evidence of the block copolymer architecture was revealed through the retention of PLLA crystallinity as measured by differential scanning calorimetry and wide-angle X-ray diffraction. Multiblock copolymers with PLLA crystallinity could be achieved only with isolated PLLA macroinitiators; sequential addition of MBC to high-conversion L -lactide polymerizations resulted in excessive randomization, presumably because of residual L -lactide monomer. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Living/controlled copolymerization of acrylates with nonactivated alkenes

JOURNAL OF POLYMER SCIENCE (IN TWO SECTIONS), Issue 24 2004

Abstract The living/controlled copolymerization of methyl acrylate with 1-alkenes and norbornene derivatives through several radical polymerization techniques has been achieved. These techniques include atom transfer radical polymerization, reversible addition,fragmentation transfer polymerization, nitroxide-mediated polymerization, and degenerative transfer polymerization. These systems display many of the characteristics of a living polymerization process: the molecular weight increases linearly with the overall conversion, but the polydispersity remains low. Novel block copolymers have been synthesized through the sequential addition of monomers or chain extension. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

One-pot synthesis of block copolymers of arborescent polyisobutylene, polystyrene
Abstract Novel arborescent block copolymers comprising of an arborescent rubbery polyisobutylene (PIB) midsegment and glassy polystyrene (PSt) end blocks were prepared by sequential addition of monomers. Synthesis was conducted by the use of 4-(2-methoxyisopropyl) styrene as an inimer-type initiator in conjunction with titanium tetrachloride (TiCl4) in 60:40 (v/v) methylcyclohexane/methyl chloride solvent mixture. Isobutylene was polymerized for 1,2,hr and then prechilled styrene in the same solvent mixture was sequentially added with select additives to the reaction flask. The recovered block copolymers were purified and then characterized by 1H-NMR, size exclusion chromatograph (SEC), tensile test, atomic force Microscopy (AFM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Samples with 16.4,32.8,wt% PSt and Mn,=,47,600,125,900,g/mol (Mw/Mn,=,2.02,4.45) displayed thermoplastic elastomeric properties with 5,9.2,MPa tensile strength and 490,920% elongation. The arborescent block copolymers showed surface morphologies ranging from spherical to cylindrical/lamellar nanometer-sized discreet PSt phases dispersed in a continuous PIB matrix, with a 10,nm PIB layer on the surface. Drug release profiles of paclitaxel from two arborescent blocks were found to be similar to that measured from Translute®. Copyright © 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. [source]

Combinatorial, selective and reversible control of gene expression using oligodeoxynucleotides in a cell-free protein synthesis system,

BIOTECHNOLOGY & BIOENGINEERING, Issue 2 2009
Jung-Won Keum
Abstract Herein we describe the methods for selective and reversible regulation of gene expression using antisense oligodeoxynucleotides (ODNs) in a cell-free protein synthesis system programmed with multiple DNAs. Either a complete shut down or controlled level of gene expression was attained through the antisense ODN-mediated regulation of mRNA stability in the reaction mixture. In addition to the primary control of gene expression, we also demonstrate that the inhibition of protein synthesis can be reversed by using an anti-antisense ODN sequence that strips the antisense ODN off the target sequence of mRNA. As a result, sequential additions of the antisense and anti-antisense ODNs enabled the stop-and-go expression of protein molecules. Through the on-demand regulation of gene expression, presented results will provide a versatile platform for the analysis and understanding of the complicated networks of biological components.

Dog left ventricular midmyocardial myocytes for assessment of drug-induced delayed repolarization: short-term variability and proarrhythmic potential

BRITISH JOURNAL OF PHARMACOLOGY, Issue 1 2010
Najah Abi-Gerges
Background and purpose:, Evaluation of the potential for delayed ventricular repolarization and proarrhythmia by new drugs is essential. We investigated if dog left ventricular midmyocardial myocytes (LVMMs) that can be used as a preclinical model to assess drug effects on action potential duration (APD) and whether in these cells, short-term variability (STV) or triangulation could predict proarrhythmic potential. Experimental approach:, Beagle LVMMs and Purkinje fibres (PFs) were used to record APs. Effects of six reference drugs were assessed on APD at 50% (APD50) and 90% (APD90) of repolarization, STV(APD), triangulation (ratio APD90/APD50) and incidence of early afterdepolarizations (EADs) at 1 and 0.5 Hz. Key results:, LVMMs provided stable recordings of AP, which were not affected by four sequential additions of dimethyl sulphoxide. Effects of dofetilide, d-sotalol, cisapride, pinacidil and diltiazem, but not of terfenadine, on APD in LVMMs were found to be comparable with those recorded in PFs. LVMMs, but not PFs, exhibited a proarrhythmic response to IKr blockers. Incidence of EADs was not related to differences in AP prolongation or triangulation, but corresponded to beat-to-beat variability of repolarization, here quantified as STV of APD. Conclusions and implications:, LVMMs provide a suitable preclinical model to assess the effects of new drugs on APD and also yield additional information about putative indicators of proarrhythmia that add value to an integrated QT/TdP risk assessment. Our findings support the concept that increased STV(APD) may predict drug-induced proarrhythmia. This article is part of a themed section on QT safety.
