MACROMOLECULAR COMPOSITIONS FOR BINDING SMALL MOLECULES

The present invention relates to a method for preparing a macromolecular composition comprising phenylglyoxaldehyde-derivatives. The invention also relates to the macromolecular compositions per se, and to methods of using the macromolecular compositions. The macromolecular compositions are useful for undergoing subsequent reactions with small molecules, for instance to remove such small molecules from a solution.

Microwave-promoted facile and rapid synthesis procedure for the efficient synthesis of 5,5-disubstituted hydantoins

A fast, general, environmentally friendly, and facile method for preparation of 5, 5-disubstituted hydantoins from the reaction between ketone (or aldehyde) derivatives with KCN and ammonium carbonate under microwave irradiation is presented. The microwaves remarkably accelerated this reaction, the reaction times decreased dramatically, the reaction conditions were milder, and the yields were also greater. Also a comparative study of microwave versus classical conditions has been done. All the products were characterized by infrared, NMR, and CHN analysis, and their melting points are identical to those of the known compounds reported in the literature. This method might be useful in the future for the preparation of similar derivatives. Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.

Production of ring-substituted D-phenylglycines by microbial or enzymatic hydrolysis/deracemisation of the corresponding DL-hydantoins

A series of 17 ring-mono and -disubstituted D-phenylglycine derivatives was prepared in high enantiomeric purity by enzymatic hydrolysis and deracemisation of the corresponding DL-hydantoins, using D-hydantoinase activities of microorganisms or purified enzymes, followed by diazotation of the resulting N-carbamyl-D-amino acids. No significant L-hydantoinase activity was found to produce the corresponding L-enantiomers.
