RESUMO

The dark-colored viologen radical cations are unstable in air and easily fade, thus greatly limiting their applications. If a suitable substituent is introduced into the structure, it will have the dual function of chromism and luminescence, which will broaden its application field. Here, Vio1·2Cl and Vio2·2Br were synthesized by introducing aromatic acetophenone and naphthophenone substituents into the viologen structure. The keto group (-CH2CO-) on the substituents is prone to isomerize into the enol structure (-CH[double bond, length as m-dash]COH-) in organic solvents, especially in DMSO, resulting in a larger conjugated system to stabilize the molecular structure and enhance fluorescence. The time-dependent fluorescence spectrum shows obvious keto-to-enol isomerization-induced fluorescence enhancement. The quantum yield also increased significantly (T = 1 day, ΦVio1 = 25.81%, ΦVio2 = 41.44%; T = 7 days, ΦVio1 = 31.48%, and ΦVio2 = 54.40%) in DMSO. The NMR and ESI-MS data at different times further confirmed that the fluorescence enhancement was caused by isomerization, and no other fluorescent impurities were produced in solution. DFT calculations show that the enol form is almost coplanar throughout the molecular structure, which is conducive to stabilizing the structure and enhancing fluorescence. The fluorescence emission peaks of the keto and enol structures of Vio12+ and Vio22+ were at 416-417 nm and 563-582 nm, respectively. The fluorescence relative oscillator strength of Vio12+ and Vio22+ enol structures is significantly higher than that of keto structures (f value changes from 1.53 to 2.63 for Vio12+ and from 1.62 to 2.81 for Vio22+), indicating stronger fluorescence emission of the enol structure. The calculated results are in good agreement with the experimental results. Vio1·2Cl and Vio2·2Br are the first examples of isomerization-induced fluorescence enhancement of viologen derivatives, which shows strong solvatofluorochromism under UV light, making up for the disadvantage that it is easy for a viologen radical to fade in air, and providing a new strategy for designing and synthesizing viologen materials with strong fluorescence.

RESUMO

Cyclic polyamine/ethers embedded with anthraquinone moieties and functional pendants, are structural analogues of crown ethers and (oxo-) cyclams, and could be utilized as sensitive and selective chemosensors towards metal cations. Those pseudo- (similar but geometrically distinct) crown and lariat ethers show various cation-binding patterns and stoichiometry, being modulated by donor type, cavity size and pendants' chelating ability. The luminescent and chromogenic properties also differ a lot along with the derivation of the parental macrocycle. Methodological designing including synthesis and post-functionalization through nucleophilic substitution, Mannich condensation etc., as well as the sensing performance of those pseudo-crown and lariat ethers are summarized in this review, basing on the spectroscopic, voltammetric and X-ray crystallographic determinations. Anion effect in sensing cations is evaluated according to the ion-pair recognition theory. Those results shed some light on exemplifying the anions' role in bioinorganic systems including metalloenzymes.

RESUMO

A lariat anthraquinone macrocycle functionalized with catechol (H2L) was synthesized via the Mannich reaction. The Mannich base H2L can be partially decomposed into L1·3H2O and HL1·NO3·2H2O in the presence of tetrabutylammonium hydroxide/Al(NO3)3·9H2O in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO). Free L1·3H2O is essentially coplanar, while protonated HL1·NO3·2H2O is highly distorted. Dark-green FeCl3·H2L·2H2O powder and Fe2(HL)2Cl4 crystal can be isolated from ethanol (C2H5OH) in high/low H2L concentration. Anthraquinone in H2L is essentially coplanar but distorted in Fe2(HL)2Cl4. The Fe(III) ion in Fe2(HL)2Cl4 adopts a less common five-coordination with three catecholate O and two Cl atoms in the dimer. The distortion of inbound C═O is much higher than that of outbound C═O in anthraquinone in all of these compounds. H2L responds to chlorides of Li+, Na+, K+, Cs+, Mg2+, Ca2+, Sr2+, Ba2+, Fe3+, Cu2+, Zn2+, and Al3+ in a DMSO solution, which can be observed by differential pulse voltammetry, UV-vis, and 1H NMR. All of these metal ions shift Ep of anthraquinone to positive, especially the second reduction peak of anthraquinone. Fe3+, Zn2+, and Al3+ change the reduction of catechol fundamentally. H2L (0.50 mM) shows a chromogenic response to FeCl3 and Fe(NO3)3 to form uncommon 2:1 and 3:2 (H2L/Fe) complexes, both peaking at 748 nm in DMSO. In the presence of 2 equiv of sodium hydroxide (NaOH), the 748 nm absorbance shifts to 777 nm, identical with Fe2(HL)2Cl4 in DMSO. Different from the fast reaction between H2L and FeCl3, Fe(NO3)3 reacts with H2L rather slowly in DMSO. Catechol can coordinate to FeCl3 without any deprotonation in C2H5OH and DMSO. H2L also shows a chromogenic response to fluorides and hydroxides, which peak at 670 and 684 nm, respectively, in DMSO. The binding ratio between H2L and F-/OH- is 1:2. In a higher concentration of hydroxides, a 684 nm greenish-blue 1:2 complex forms immediately, which gradually transforms to a red complex and peaks at ∼530 nm in minutes at room temperature. No color change can be observed in an C2H5OH solution in the presence of OH-.

RESUMO

A complexone analog chemosensor, H2L, bearing chelating bis(2-pyridylmethyl) amine and alizarin groups was synthesized via the Mannich reaction. H2L chromically responds to OH-, F-, CH3COO-, and H2PO4- in DMF, CH3CN, and acetone, but not in CH3OH or H2O. The addition of F- ions to H2L selectively induces a significant and visible color change in acetonitrile and shifts both methylene proton signals upfield. H2L also exhibits visible responses to Mg2+, Sr2+, Ba2+, Tb3+, Cu2+, Co2+, Ni2+, Zn2+, Mn2+, Cd2+, and Fe3+ in solution. AlCl3 can form an Al : L = 2 : 3 complex that not only changes the color of the DMF solution, but also significantly increases its fluorescence intensity. The limit of fluorescence turn-on detection for AlCl3 in DMF is 2.7 × 10-8 M, which is an order higher than those of other anthraquinone sensors reported in the literature. NMR spectroscopy shows that hydroxyl is not deprotonated upon interacting with Al3+, but will be partially deprotonated in the presence of Zn2+. Contrary to the complexone, the H2L-Ce(iii) complex does not react chromically to F-. However, the H2L-NiCl2 complex responds chromically to F-, with higher sensitivity (LOD = 1.3 × 10-6 M F- in acetonitrile) than free H2L. The spectral changes in the presence of F- are similar to that of OH-; however, the spectrum shifts slightly to a longer wavelength and is more sensitive to both H2L and the H2L-NiCl2 complex. Moreover, 4% or less H2O in the solvent essentially has no influence on the F- sensitivity; however, high water content significantly decreases the F- sensitivity. The spectral changes of the Zn2+, Cu2+, Fe3+, Ce3+, and Ni2+ complexes in the presence of different NaOH concentrations were also investigated.

RESUMO

An inorganic titanium oxide (TiO) gel sensor was demonstrated for convenient detection of ascorbic acid (AA). It is composed of TiO (PI-TiO) functionalized with a perylene diimide derivative containing carboxylic groups as a new soft dopant material. A traditional solvothermal reaction is adopted to prepare the PI-TiO composite, which exhibits a different spectrum according to the reaction time. The final gel possesses a strong chelating affinity with AA molecules, in which phenol hydroxyl groups are shown to compete with those already present in PI. We further utilize the functionalized gel to prepare a series of films with a simple and portable AA response. A visual colour variation can be recognized by the naked eye, together with obvious fluorescence changes for selective and sensitive AA detection. Finally, the as-prepared gel film displays good stability and reproducibility for real sample responses with satisfying results.

RESUMO

Corneal blindness caused by limbal stem cell deficiency (LSCD) is one of the most common debilitating eye disorders. Thus far, the most effective treatment for LSCD is corneal transplantation, which is often hindered by the shortage of donors. Pluripotent stem cell technology including embryonic stem cells (ESCs) and induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) have opened new avenues for treating this disease. iPSCs-derived corneal epithelial cells provide an autologous and unlimited source of cells for the treatment of LSCD. On the other hand, iPSCs of LSCD patients can be used for iPSCs-corneal disease model and new drug discovery. However, prior to clinical trial, the efficacy and safety of these cells in patients with LSCD should be proved. Here we focused on the current status of iPSCs-derived corneal epithelial cells used for cell therapy as well as for corneal disease modeling. The challenges and potential of iPSCs-derived corneal epithelial cells as a choice for clinical treatment in corneal disease were also discussed.

RESUMO

An anionic sod-type zeolitic metal-organic framework [(CH3)2NH2]9{Tb6(η6-TATAT)4(H2O)12}·3Cl·DMA·7H2O [1, H6TATAT = 5,5',5''-(1,3,5-triazine-2,4,6-triyltriimino)tri-1,3-benzenedicarboxylic acid] has been synthesized by metal-ligand directed assembly of hexacarboxylic acid units and Tb3+ ions. Compound 1 with extra-large cavities can efficiently extract natural product anthocyanins from blackberries and release them rapidly into NaCl aqueous solution. And, the nature of the anionic framework makes it very sensitive to detect cationic methyl viologen (MV2+) with a detection limit as low as 1 × 10-8 M.

RESUMO

STUDY DESIGN: Retrospective study. OBJECTIVE: To analyze the reasons, clinical manifestation, risk factors, prevention, and treatment of dysphagia after operation of anterior cervical decompression and fusion (ACDF). SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA: Dysphagia is one of severe complications after ACDF. There were a few studies about reasons and prevention of dysphagia. METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed medical charts of patients who underwent ACDF in our hospital from January 2012 to December 2012. Clinical symptom of dysphagia was recorded at the perioperative period and at the third and sixth month of the follow-up after surgery and assigned according to the Bazaz dysphagia score. We analyzed the reasons and risk factors leading to dysphagia and tried to find effective programs of prevention and treatment. RESULTS: There were 358 patients who underwent ACDF. Of 358 patients, 39 patients including 14 men and 25 women complained of dysphagia. The mean age was 46.8 years, with an age range of 38-67 years. Clinical manifestation of dysphagia included difficulty to swallow, pain during swallowing, sticky throat feeling, and choking. All the patients were followed up over 6 months. The incidences of dysphagia were 10.9%, 6.4%, and 2.7%, respectively, at 1-5 days, 3 months, and 6 months after surgery. There was no severe dysphagia at 3 months after surgery. Mild or moderate dysphagia slightly affected the quality of life. Logistic regression showed multilevel cervical spine, and high-level cervical spine surgeries are high-risk factors for postoperative dysphagia. CONCLUSIONS: Dysphagia is a common complication of ACDF. Causes of dysphagia include multilevel cervical spine and upper cervical spine surgeries. Use of methylprednisolone and careful operation can reduce the incidence and result in good prognosis.

RESUMO

A homochiral mixed-valence cobalt cluster [CoΙΙ16 CoΙΙΙ4 (µ6 -O)4 (µ3 -OH)12 (S-bme)12 (OAc)6 ]Cl6 ⋅5 CH3 OH⋅18 H2 O (1, Hbme=1H-(benzimidazol-2-yl)ethanol) was synthesized from a racemic ligand and three cobalt salts of CoCl2 ⋅6 H2 O, Co(Ac)2 ⋅4 H2 O and Co(NO3 )2 ⋅6 H2 O in a DMF/MeOH mixed solvent. The enantioselective coordination occurs when a large excess of cobalt ions added in the solution and only the S-configuration of the racemic ligand involved in crystallization. The CD spectra of three crystal samples show identical Cotton signals, indicating the repeatability and the enantiomeric purity of the single crystals. This compound presents a beautiful two-shell Matryoshka-type supertetrahedral T4 cluster constructed by an inner CoΙΙΙ4 O4 cubane and four exterior CoΙΙ4 O4 cubanes bridged by µ6 -O2- and µ3 -OH- ions. This highest nuclear chiral cobalt cluster is the first example of enantiopure cobalt cluster separated from a racemic ligand and is the largest supertetrahedral cobalt cluster up to now. The magnetic studies reveal it behaves as a ferromagnet. Photocatalytic properties of 1 show high catalytic activities for the degradation of the highly toxic triphenyl dye crystal violet (CV) in the presence of H2 O2 under visible light in aqueous solution. The degradation rate almost reach 100 % at 45 min and can maintain 98.54 % after 8 cycles.

RESUMO

Currently the surgical approach for papillary thyroid microcarcinoma (PTMC), particularly the range of lymph node dissection, remains controversial. The present study aims to evaluate the risk factors for central and lateral lymph node metastasis (CLNM and LLNM) for appropriate clinical decision of neck lymph node dissection in PTMC. A total of 66 cases of PTMC that underwent unilateral or bilateral lobectomy plus prophylactic cervical lymph node dissection were collected for clinicopathological evaluation, including age, gender, tumor size, subtypes, extrathyroidal invasion, multifocality, calcifications, loss of cellular polarity/cohesiveness (LOP/C) in the invasive front, CLNM and LLNM, and retrospectively analysis. Univariate analysis revealed that LOP/C was significantly associated with CLNM (P=0.001) and LLNM (P<0.0001). The male gender was a risk factor of CLNM (P=0.04), while the age <45 years, tumor size >0.5 cm and multifocality were high-risk factors of LLNM (P=0.022, 0.044 and 0.005, respectively). Multivariable analysis revealed that LOP/C was significantly associated with CLNM [P=0.007, odds ratio (OR)=7.765, 95% confidence interval (CI)=1.773-33.996] and LLNM [P=0.029, OR=5.717, 95% CI=1.190-27.470]. Both multivariable analysis and χ2 test revealed that CLNM was another important high-risk factor of LLNM (P=0.021, OR=5.444, 95% CI=1.290-22.969, χ2=17.867, P<0.001). The present study revealed that prophylactic central lymph node dissection is essential for PTMC surgery and that prophylactic lateral lymph node dissection is recommend for patients with LOP/C and CLNM, which can be performed by intraoperative frozen section pathological examination. This must be considered discreetly in the case of patients with age <45 years, tumor size >0.5 cm and multifocal lesions.

RESUMO

Electron-withdrawing/coordinating o-phenolacetyl-substituted viologen can act as a visual sensor for solvents, bases, and temperature in organic solvents. Due to chelating phenolacetyl groups, this viologen can coordinate to Fe(III), Cu(II), and ZnCl2 in aqueous and DMF solutions. Interestingly, this viologen can respond to temperature, grind, and NH3 vapor in its solid state. Stimuli response is visible, fast, and fully reversible in air at room temperature. The color change is attributed to the enolic and/or free radical structure. This is the most versatile chromic material that responds to chemical and physical stimuli in both solution and solid state.

RESUMO

Viologen cations are excellent electro- and photochromic materials. They generally have no response or very low sensitivity to bases. In this paper, three compounds, 1,1'-bis(2-oxo-2-phenylethyl)-4,4'-bipyridinium (viologen) with different substituents, including H (1), Cl (2), and OH (3), were synthesized. All three, especially 1 and 2, have very high sensitivity to base in both solution and solid state in air atmosphere. These viologens are responsive not only to bases but also to solvent polarity. NMR shows 1 became enolic and then a radical, whereas 3 is colored only in the radical form. These results are in agreement with EPR spectra. Crystal structures show that the C-C that links two pyridinium and N-C distances in coplanar pyridinium in the colored (radical) form is clearly longer than that of the pale-yellow form, indicating that the color is due to the viologen radical. Viologens containing an electron-withdrawing phenacetyl group are the most sensitive compounds for fast, naked eye detection of base and solvent polarity.

RESUMO

In this study, a simple, sensitive, and throughout liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method was developed for the simultaneous determination of seven flavonoid compounds, namely, rutin, vitexin-4″-O-glucoside, vitexin-2″-O-rhamnoside, hyperoside, vitexin, shanyenoside A and quercetin in rat plasma after intravenous administration of hawthorn leaves flavonoids (HLF) using lysionotin as an internal standard (IS). The target compounds were extracted using protein precipitation by methanol. The detection was achieved by LC-MS/MS in multiple reaction monitoring mode. The optimal mass transition ion pairs (m/z) for quantitation were 609.3/300.1 for rutin, 593.1/413.2 for vitexin-4″-O-glucoside, 577.3/413.2 for vitexin-2″-O-rhamnoside, 463.2/300.1 for hyperoside, 431.2/311.2 for vitexin, 407.2/245.1 for shanyenoside A, 301.1/151.1 for quercetin and 343.2/313.1 for the IS, respectively. The method was fully validated with respect to specificity, sensitivity, linearity, precision, accuracy, recovery and stability experiments. A sufficiently sensitive and selective LC-MS/MS method was first developed in this study to simultaneously evaluate the pharmacokinetics of seven flavonoids in rat plasma following intravenous administration of HLF.

RESUMO

A new neuromelanin-like ketocatechol-containing iminodiacetic acid ligand, (N-(3,4-dihydroxyl)phenacylimino)diacetic acid (H4L), which is also quite similar to compounds found in insect cuticle, has been synthesized and characterized. The X-ray crystal structure of H4L has been successfully determined. Proton binding and coordination with Fe(III), Cu(II), and Zn(II) have been studied by potentiometric titrations and UV-vis spectrophotometry in aqueous solution. UV spectra of H4L in the absence and presence of different metal ions indicate complexes formed with the catechol moiety of H4L in aqueous solution. Visible spectra and NMR reveal that H4L with Fe(III), Cu(II), and Zn(II) can all give stable mono-(ML) and dinuclear complexes [M(ML)]. Fe(III) can also form {Fe(FeL)2} and {Fe(FeL)3} species with sufficient base. The process is accompanied by a drastic color change from light blue to deep-blue to wine-red. The Fe(III)-Cu(II) heteronuclear complex also exists in aqueous solution whose spectra are similar to the homonuclear Fe(III) complex. However, the spectra of {Fe(CuL)} shifted to a longer wavelength and {Fe(CuL)2} and {Fe(CuL)3} shifted to a shorter wavelength. Keto-enol tautomerism was observed in weak basic aqueous solution as indicated by (1)H NMR spectra. The reaction products of Cu(II) complex with H2O2 depend on the H2O2 concentration and pH value. Low concentrations of H2O2 oxidize H4L to a series of semiquinone and quinone compounds with absorption maxima at 314-400 nm, while a high concentration of H2O2 oxidizes H4L to colorless muconic acid derivatives. NaIO4 gives different oxidase products, but no 2,4,5-trihydroxyphenylalanine quinone (TPQ)-like hydroxyquinone can be found.

RESUMO

Aspartic functionalized water-soluble perylene diimide, N,N'-di(2-succinic acid)-perylene-3,4,9,10-tetracarboxylic diimide (PASP) has two absorbance maximums at 527 and 498nm (ε≈1.7×10(4)Lcm(-1)mol(-1)) and two emission peaks at 547 and 587nm respectively. Emission intensities decrease with the increase of PASP concentrations in 20-100µM ranges. Spectral titrations demonstrate that each PASP can coordinate to two Cu(2+) ions in the absence of HEPES buffer. Its stability constant is estimated to be about 1.0×10(12)L(2)mol(-2) at pH 7.20 and its coordinate stoichiometry increased to 7.5 in the same pH in the presence of HEPES buffer. The emission of PASP will be completely quenched upon formation of Cu(2+) complex. The lowest "turn-off" fluorescence detection limit was calculated to be 0.3µM Cu(2+). PASP-Cu solution was used as a "turn-on" fluorescence biosensor to detect ATP. The sensitivity towards ATP is 0.3µM in 50mM HEPES buffer at pH 7.20, which is one of the most sensitive fluorescence sensors.

RESUMO

Two new m-xylene/cyclohexane-linked bis-aspartic acid ligands, L(b) and L(c), were synthesized via Michael addition in basic aqueous solution. Their structures were characterized by elemental analysis, NMR and MS spectrometry. Both ligands react with Cu(II) and Zn(II) to form dinuclear complexes, with M2L(OH)(-) the major species in neutral/weak basic aqueous solution. To quantify the relative interaction strength between a Lewis acid and base, a new parameter σ = log K/14 was proposed which compares the stability constant with the binding constant between H(+) and OH(-). The dinuclear copper complexes (L(b)-2Cu and L(c)-2Cu) react with H2O2 in aqueous solution. The reaction in 0.020 M phosphate buffer at pH 7.5 is first-order for [L(c)-2Cu], but second-order for [L(b)-2Cu]. The oxidation products are oxygenated and/or dehydrogenated species. Radical trapping tests indicate that both complexes slightly scavenge the OH˙ radical, but generate the H˙ radical. L(c)-2Cu generates the H˙ radical much more effectively than that of L(b)-2Cu when reacted with H2O2. Both complexes are excellent catalysts for the oxidation of nitrobenzene in the presence of H2O2 in weakly basic aqueous solution. The oxidation follows the rate-law v = k[complex][nitrobenzene][H2O2]. The k values in pH 8.0 phosphate buffer at 25 °C are 211.2 ± 0.3 and 607.9 ± 1.7 mol(-2) L(2) s(-1) for L(b)-2Cu and L(c)-2Cu, respectively. The Arrhenius activation energies are 69.4 ± 2.2 and 70.0 ± 4.3 kJ mol(-1) for L(b)-2Cu and L(c)-2Cu, respectively, while the Arrhenius pre-exponential factors are 2.62 × 10(14) and 1.06 × 10(15), respectively. The larger pre-exponential factor makes L(c)-2Cu more catalytically active than L(b)-2Cu. These complexes are some of the most effective oxidation catalysts known for the oxidation of nitrobenzene.

RESUMO

An aspartic acid-functionalized water-soluble perylene bisimide, N,N'-di(2-succinic acid)-perylene-3,4,9,10-tetracarboxylic bisimide (PASP) was synthesized and characterized. It has absorbance maximum A(0-0) and A(0-1) at 527 and 498 nm (ε ≈ 1.7 × 10(4) L cm(-1) mol(-1)) respectively in pH 7.20 HEPES buffer. Two quasi-reversible redox processes with E1/2 at -0.17 and -0.71 V (vs Ag/AgCl) respectively in pH 7-12.5 aqueous solutions. PASP can react with Na2S in pure aqueous solution to form monoanion radical and dianion species consecutively. PASP(-•) has EPR signal with g = 1.998 in aqueous solution, whereas PASP(2-) is EPR silent. The monoanion radical formation is a first-order reaction with k = 8.9 × 10(-2) s(-1). Dianion species formation is a zero-order reaction and the rate constant is 4.3 × 10(-8) mol L(-1) s(-1). The presence of H2O2 greatly increases the radical formation rate constant. PASP as a two-electron transfer reagent is expected to be used in the water photolysis.

RESUMO

Two chain compounds built with anti-anti acetate bridged Mn(III)(3)O units, [Mn(3)O(Clppz)(3)(EtOH)(4)(OAc)](n) (1) and [Mn(3)O(Clppz)(3)(EtOH)(2)(OAc)](n) (2), were synthesized and characterized. The magnetic studies indicate that 1 is a single-chain magnet with two slow magnetization relaxation processes which has for the first time been found in this type of chain complex, while 2 shows a field-induced metamagnetic behavior. The quite different magnetic behaviors resulted from the different number of coordinated ethanol molecules on the Mn(III)(3)O unit, four ethanol molecules for 1, and two ethanol molecules for 2. The best fittings to the experimental magnetic susceptibilities gave J(1) = -2.72 cm(-1), J(2) = -4.34 cm(-1), zJ = 1.24 cm(-1) for 1 and J(1) = -5.91 cm(-1), J(2) = -0.98 cm(-1), zJ = 1.71 for 2 above 30 K. The positive zJ values indicate the presence of weak ferromagnetic interactions between the trinuclear units via acetate bridges in 1 and 2.
