Light-Activated Sensitive Probes for Amine Detection

Our new, simple, and accurate colorimetric method is based on diarylethenes (DAEs) for the rapid detection of a wide range of primary and secondary amines. The probes consist of aldehyde- or ketone-substituted diarylethenes, which undergo an amine-induced decoloration reaction, selectively to give the ring-closed isomer. Thus, these probes can be activated at the desired moment by light irradiation, with a sensitivity that allows the detection of amines at concentrations as low as 10?6m in solution. In addition, the practical immobilization of DAEs on paper makes it possible to detect biogenic amines, such as cadaverine, in the gas phase above a threshold of 12 ppbv within 30 seconds.

The magnetic deshielding caused by the amido group on CON-CHα protons of secondary amides can easily be correlated with DFT-based structures at the B3LYP/6-31G* level of theory via a novel algorithm that refines previous models, such as the classical McConnell equation. The shift is given by δ = a + 2.16 cos2(α - 35)/d, where α denotes the virtual dihedral angle resulting from linking the carbonyl and the α-carbons and d is the distance (A) between the shifted proton and the carbonyl oxygen. Notably, in this equation a is a parameter that can be optimized for different solvents, namely, CDCl3, DMSO-d6, and D2O. For the development of these correlations, the preferential conformation of amides is taken from the optimized structures in the gas phase obtained at the DFT level. The deshielding on anti and gauche protons in both rotamers of (Z)-acetamides and E/Z isomers of formamides has been evaluated. This methodology has proved to be highly reliable, allowing us to discard ab initio or DFT conformational arrangements when shifts calculated by the above-mentioned equation differ from the experimental values. Thus, the anti disposition between the CHα proton and the N-H bond appears to be the more stable conformation of simple amides. For amides bearing only one proton at Cα, a local syn minimum can equally be characterized. The rotational barriers around the CON-alkyl bond along with the pyramidalization of the amido group have also been reassessed. As the conformation is taken away from anti or local syn minima, the nonplanarity of the amido group appears to increase.

Severe diseases such as the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, as well as the previous SARS and MERS outbreaks, are the result of coronavirus infections and have demonstrated the urgent need for antiviral drugs to combat these deadly viruses. Due to its essential role in viral replication and function, 3CLpro (main coronaviruses cysteine-protease) has been identified as a promising target for the development of antiviral drugs. Previously reported SARS-CoV 3CLpro non-covalent inhibitors were used as a starting point for the development of covalent inhibitors of SARS-CoV-2 3CLpro. We report herein our efforts in the design and synthesis of submicromolar covalent inhibitors when the enzymatic activity of the viral protease was used as a screening platform.
Concentration-dependent circularly polarized luminescence of chiral cyclometalated platinum(II) complexes for electroluminescence

Circularly polarized organic light-emitting diodes (CP-OLEDs) have been attracting increasing attention due to the direct generation of CP light, and they show the improved image contrast and luminous efficiency in OLEDs displays. In this work, a pair of chiral Pt(II) complexes with methylbenzylisocyanide and 1,3-bis(2-pyridyl)benzene as a tridentate N∧C∧N ligand were synthesized. Both of them exhibited bright green emission in dilute acetonitrile solution, while strong orange emission in high concentration of acetonitrile solution. However, when the complexes were doped into polymethyl methacrylate, the green emission originated from intrinsic single molecule can be changed to the red emission from excimer by adjusting the doping ratios. More importantly, the amplification of CPL signal can be achieved compared with the solution state. Furthermore, the monochrome devices were fabricated by utilizing these two enantiomers as emitters.
Metal-free Carbon Monoxide (CO) Capture and Utilization: Formylation of Amines

The capture and utilization of CO by 1,5,7-triazabicyclo[4.4.0]dec-5-ene (TBD) were performed in the absence of transition-metal complexes. The reaction of TBD with CO afforded TBD-CO adducts, which were converted to formylated TBD (TBD-CHO). TBD-CO adducts may include an interaction of CO with positively charged species based on NMR and IR analysis. In the presence of amines, CO was transferred from TBD-CO to amines, producing formylated amines with good yields. The reaction mechanism involving TBD-CO adducts is presented based on theoretical calculations. (Figure presented.).

, p. 2851 - 2860 (2018/10/31)
Abstract: Graphene oxide (GO), an inexpensive, environment-friendly, and metal-free carbocatalyst, used for the N-formylation of amines is developed. In this reaction, GO shows good activity, selectivity, and recyclability. This strategy has an array of advantages, such as being metal free, without additive, wide-scope protocol, scalable with a low catalyst loading of 3?wt%, use of readily available and recyclable carbocatalyst, and DMF as a readily available formyl source. Furthermore, this strategy provides an avenue for the convenient hydroformylation of various amines. Graphical abstract: [Figure not available: see fulltext.].

As a cellular bile acid sensor, farnesoid X receptor (FXR) participates in regulation of bile acid, lipid and glucose homeostasis, and liver protection. Clinical results have validated FXR as therapeutic target in hepatic and metabolic diseases. To date, potent FXR agonists share a negatively ionizable function that might compromise their pharmacokinetic distribution and behavior. Here we report the development and characterization of a high-affinity FXR modulator not comprising an acidic residue.

supporting information, p. 2750 - 2753 (2016/06/15)
Addition of the in situ generated Schwartz reagent to widely available isocyanates constitutes a chemoselective, high-yielding, and versatile approach to the synthesis of variously functionalized formamides. Steric and electronic factors or the presence of sensitive functionalities (esters, nitro groups, nitriles, alkenes) do not compromise the potential of the method. Full preservation of the stereochemical information contained in the starting materials is observed. The use of formamides in the nucleophilic addition of organometallic reagents (Chida-Sato allylation, Charette-Huang addition to imidoyl triflate activated amides, Matteson homologation of boronic esters) is briefly investigated.
