RESUMO
The lack of functional groups or binding sites largely hindered the broad application of microporous organic networks (MONs). Herein, we report the fabrication of the sulfonate group-enriched magnetic MON composite (MMON-SO3H@SO3Na) via the combination of the sulfonic acid group containing the monomer and thiol-yne click postmodification for efficient magnetic solid-phase extraction (MSPE) of benzimidazole fungicides (BZDs) from complex sample matrices. The well-defined core-shell-structured MMON-SO3H@SO3Na was obtained and served as an advanced adsorbent for MSPE for concentrating and monitoring trace BZDs. The MMON-SO3H@SO3Na with numerous sulfonate groups provides plenty of ion-exchange, hydrogen-bonding, and π-π sites, leading to the favorable affinity to BZDs via multiple interaction mechanisms. The MMON-SO3H@SO3Na-based MSPE-high-performance liquid chromatography method afforded a wide linear range, low limits of detection, large enrichment factors, good precisions, and reusability for BZDs. Trace BZDs in complex vegetables and fruit samples were successfully detected by the established method. The MMON-SO3H@SO3Na also exhibited good selectivity toward multiple types of polar contaminants containing hydrogen-bonding sites and aromatic structures. This work provided a new postsynthesis strategy for constructing novel and multifunctioned magnetic MONs for preconcentration of trace analytes in a complex matrix.

In this study, two hydrophilic polymers hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose and beta-cyclodextrin (ß-CD) are used to synthesize highly responsive and spongy polymeric matrices. Porous and stimulus-responsive polymeric network was developed to improve the solubility of acyclovir (ACV) at significant level. Grafting was successfully carried out by free radical polymerization technique. Spongy matrices were characterized by percentage entrapment efficiency, drug loading, solubility studies, FTIR, powder X-ray diffraction, TGA, DSC, XRD, SEM, swelling studies, and in vitro studies. Acute oral toxicity studies were conducted to determine the safety of oral administration of prepared HPMC-ßCD-g-poly(AMPS) formulation. Porous and spongy structures were depicted in SEM images. Complex formation and thermal stability of constituents and drug (ACV) were analyzed by FTIR, TGA, and DSC spectra. XRD analysis revealed reduction in acyclovir crystallinity in spongy matrices. Particle size of optimized formulation was found in the range of 197 ± 2.55 nm. The momentous difference with reference product committed that drug solubility and release characteristics were markedly enhanced by the developed spongy matrices. Toxicity studies endorsed that developed spongy matrices were non-toxic and compatible to biological system. The efficient method of preparation, enhanced solubility, excellent physico-chemical characteristics, high dissolution, and non-toxic HPMC-ßCD-g-poly(AMPS) spongy matrices may be a promising approach for oral delivery of poorly soluble drugs.

Graphene oxide (GO) crosslinked nanocomposites hydrogels (NCH) of chitosan (CS) and carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) were synthesized and the feasibility of its application as a versatile adsorbent for the remediation of cationic (methylene blue, MB) as well as anionic (methyl orange, MO) dyes contaminated wastewater was explored. Initially, GO was functionalized with vinyltriethoxysilane which was subsequently used as a chemical crosslinker to synthesize the NCH of CS and CMC (CS/CMC-NCH) with the polymeric mixture of diallyldimethylammonium chloride and 2-acrylamido-2-methyl-1-propanesulfonic acid. About 99% dye was adsorbed from 50 mg/L dye solution of MB dye with 0.4 g/L of CS/CMC-NCH at pH 7, whereas, for MO about 82% dye was adsorbed with 0.6 g/L of CS/CMC-NCH at pH 3. The Adsorption of both dyes is well explained using pseudo-second-order and Langmuir models with the maximum adsorption capacities of 655.98 mgdye/gads for MB and 404.52 mgdye/gads for MO. Thermodynamics studies suggested spontaneous and exothermic nature of the adsorption process with values of ΔS < 0 and ΔH > 0. Furthermore, CS/CMC-NCH showed excellent regeneration capacity for continuous twenty cycles of adsorption-desorption. Therefore, the synthesized CS/CMC-NCH is a versatile adsorbent that can treat both anionic and cationic dyes contaminated wastewater.

Photoactivation of bioactive molecules allows manipulation of cellular processes with high spatiotemporal precision. The recent emergence of visible-light excitable photoprotecting groups has the potential to further expand the established utility of the photoactivation strategy in biological applications by offering higher tissue penetration, diminished phototoxicity, and compatibility with other light-dependent techniques. Nevertheless, a critical barrier to such applications remains the significant hydrophobicity of most visible-light excitable photocaging groups. Here, we find that applying the conventional 2,6-sulfonation to meso-methyl BODIPY photocages is incompatible with their photoreaction due to an increase in the excited state barrier for photorelease. We present a simple, remote sulfonation solution to BODIPY photocages that imparts water solubility and provides control over cellular permeability while retaining their favorable spectroscopic and photoreaction properties. Peripherally disulfonated BODIPY photocages are cell impermeable, making them useful for modulation of cell-surface receptors, while monosulfonated BODIPY retains the ability to cross the cellular membrane and can modulate intracellular targets. This new approach is generalizable for controlling BODIPY localization and was validated by sensitization of mammalian cells and neurons by visible-light photoactivation of signaling molecules.

In this work, we investigate the potential of highly sulfated synthetic glycomimetics to act as inhibitors of viral binding/infection. Our results indicate that both long-chain glycopolymers and short-chain glycooligomers are capable of preventing viral infection. Notably, glycopolymers efficiently inhibit Human Papillomavirus (HPV16) infection in vitro and maintain their antiviral activity in vivo, while the glycooligomers exert their inhibitory function post attachment of viruses to cells. Moreover, when we tested the potential for broader activity against several other human pathogenic viruses, we observed broad-spectrum antiviral activity of these compounds beyond our initial assumptions. While the compounds tested displayed a range of antiviral efficacies, viruses with rather diverse glycan specificities such as Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV), Influenza A Virus (IAV), and Merkel Cell Polyomavirus (MCPyV) could be targeted. This opens new opportunities to develop broadly active glycomimetic inhibitors of viral entry and infection.

Four stimuli-responsive polymers of N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPA) and 2-acrylamido-2-methyl-1-propanesulfonic acid (AMPSA) and crosslinked derivatives by N,N'-methylene bisacrylamide (MBA) were synthesized: PNA, PAMPSA, PNAM, PAMPSAM. The effect of the cross-linker and methyl sulphonic acid (-CH3-SO3H) group on particle size, aggregation and volume phase transition temperature (VPTT) was investigated. Polymeric particles were synthesized via the surfactant free precipitation polymerization (SFPP) at 70 °C in the presence of cationic initiator 2,2'-azobis[2-methylpropionamidine] dihydrochloride (AMP) system. Chemical composition and morphology of investigated samples were evaluated using ATR-FTIR spectroscopy, ¹H-NMR spectrometry and SEM-EDS techniques. The hydrodynamic diameters (HD), zeta potential (ZP), and polydispersity index (PDI) in aqueous dispersions were assessed by dynamic light scattering (DLS) between 18â»42 °C. HD values at 18 °C for PNA, PAMPSA, PNAM, PAMPSAM polymers were approx. 32, 730, 715, 665 nm, and ZP values were -1.36, -0.01, 8.90, -0.09 mV, respectively. The VPTT range was observed between 29 and 41 °C. PDI's for PNA and PNAM were low and varied between 0.276 and 0.460, and between 0.119 and 0.056, respectively. PAMPSA and PAMPSAM were characterized by higher PDI in the range 0.728â»0.959 and 0.658â»0.836, respectively. The results confirmed the thermal sensitivity of the synthesized polymers and indicated a significant polydispersity and aggregation tendency of the resulting molecules. The conductivity results were applied for the interpretation of the polymerization process.

Biliverdin (BV) possesses antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, with previous reports identifying protection against oxidant and inflammatory injury in animal models. Recent reports indicate that intra-duodenal administration of BV results in the formation of an uncharacterised metabolite, which is potently absorbed into the blood and excreted into the bile. This compound may be responsible for protection against inflammatory responses. This study aimed to identify novel, enterally-derived BV metabolites and determine the source of their metabolic transformation. Rat duodena and bacterial cultures of Citrobacter youngae were treated with BV and subsequently analysed via high performance liquid chromatography/high resolution tandem mass spectrometry to identify and characterise metabolites of BV. A highly abundant metabolite was detected in duodenal wash and bacterial culture supernatants with a 663.215 m/z (3 ppm mass accuracy) and a composition of C33N4O9H36S, which conformed to the predicted structure of bilirubin-10-sulfonate (BRS) and possessed a λmax of 440 nm. Bilirubin-10-sulfonate was then synthesized for comparative LCMS/MS analysis and matched with that of the biologically formed BV metabolite. This report confirms the formation of a previously undocumented metabolite of BV in mammals, indicating that a new metabolic pathway likely exists for BV metabolism requiring enteric bacteria, Citrobacter youngae. These data may have important implications with regard to understanding and harnessing the therapeutic efficacy of oral BV administration.

For soil rehabilitation, the surfactant-enhanced remediation has emerged as a promising technology. For this purpose, starch derivatives were difunctionalized by 1,4-butane sultone (BS) and 2-octen-1-ylsuccinic anhydride (OSA). Eight distinct products were obtained under different synthesis conditions. The chemical structural characteristics were investigated by (1)H NMR spectroscopy. The compounds were evaluated for their apparent aqueous solubility and their ability to increase the solubility of a hydrophobic pollutant such as benzo[a]pyrene (BaP), used as a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon model. In comparison with native starch, the best obtained compound increased starch apparent aqueous solubility by a factor of 10 (up to 3.50g/L) and also stimulated 77-fold BaP aqueous solubilization (up to 232.97µg/L) underlining its very high surfactant property. In this study, the right balance between hydrophobic character (octenyl succinate group (OS) grafted) of starch derivatives and starch apparent aqueous solubility (BS grafted) was highlighted.

We report a modular three-component dynamic kinetic resolution (DKR) that affords enantiomerically enriched hemiaminal esters derived from azoles and aldehydes. The novel and scalable reaction can be used to synthesize valuable substituted azoles in a regioselective manner by capping (e.g., acylation) of the equilibrating azole-aldehyde adduct. With the use of a prolinol-derived DMAP catalyst as the chiral Lewis base, the products can be obtained in high chemical yield and with high enantiomeric excess. The DKR was performed on a multikilogram scale to produce a tetrazole prodrug fragment for a leading clinical candidate that posed formidable synthesis challenges.

Dissymmetric and symmetric anionic gemini surfactants, N-alkyl-N'-alkyl-N,N'dipropanesulfonylethylenediamine (CmCnSul, where m and n represent alkyl chain lengths of m-n = 4-16, 6-14, 8-12, 10-10, and 12-12), were synthesized by two- or three-step reactions. Their physicochemical properties were characterized by equilibrium surface tension measurements, steady-state fluorescence spectroscopy of pyrene, and dynamic light scattering. The critical micelle concentration (CMC) of the dissymmetric surfactants C4C16Sul, C6C14Sul, and C8C12Sul was slightly lower than that of the symmetric surfactant C10C10Sul. The occupied area per molecule (A) of C8C12Sul was smaller than that of C10C10Sul, indicating that C8C12Sul has a high surface activity. However, the increase in the degree of dissymmetry from C8C12Sul to C6C14Sul and then to C4C16Sul resulted in high surface tension and large A. Based on the surface tension, the standard free energies of micellization (∆G°mic) and adsorption (∆G°ads), the efficiency of surface adsorption (pC20), and the effectiveness of surface adsorption (CMC/C20) were obtained. These parameters suggested that C8C12Sul formed micelles more readily than the other surfactants. The properties determined from the surface tension indicated that C8C12Sul's ability is intermediate between those of C10C10Sul and C12C12Sul. The pyrene fluorescence and dynamic light scattering results revealed that the micelle size depends on the longer of the two alkyl chains in dissymmetric surfactants.

A self-immolative γ-aminopropylsulfonate linker was investigated for use in the development of prodrugs that are reactive to various chemical or biological stimuli. To demonstrate their utility, a leucine-conjugated prodrug of 5-chloroquinolin-8-ol (5-Cl-8-HQ), which is a potent inhibitor against aminopeptidase from Aeromonas proteolytica (AAP), was synthesized. The sulfonate prodrug was considerably stable under physiological conditions, with only enzyme-mediated hydrolysis of leucine triggering the subsequent intramolecular cyclization to simultaneously release 5-Cl-8-HQ and form γ-sultam. It was also confirmed that this γ-aminopropylsulfonate linker was applicable for prodrugs of not only 8-HQ derivatives but also other drugs bearing a phenolic hydroxy group.

Two sulfonated resorcinarenes were synthesized by reacting C-tetra(butyl) resorcinarene or C-tetra(2-(methylthio)ethyl)resorcinarene with formaldehyde in the presence of sodium sulfite. Their structures were determined via FT-IR, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR and mass spectrometry. Thermal gravimetric analyses of the derivatives were also carried out and revealed the presence of water molecules in the solid state. The sulfonated product of C-tetra(butyl)resorcinarene was characterized by an X-ray crystal structure determination. The asymmetric unit contains eight molecules of water and two of acetone, and analysis indicated that sulfonated resorcinarene prefers a cone configuration (rccc conformation) in the solid state. In the crystal array, classical hydrogen bond interactions O-H···O and intermolecular contacts were observed. In the crystal packing, a linear array of capsules of sulfonated resorcinarenes was generated for a chain of sodium atoms and sulfonate groups.

Superoxide anion radical (O2(â¢-)) is undoubtedly the most important primary reactive oxygen species (ROS) found in cells, whose formation and fate are intertwined with diverse physiological and pathological processes. Here we report a highly sensitive and selective O2(â¢-) detecting strategy involving O2(â¢-) cleavage of an aryl trifluoromethanesulfonate group to yield a free phenol. We have synthesized three new O2(â¢-) fluorescent probes (HKSOX-1, HKSOX-1r for cellular retention, and HKSOX-1m for mitochondria-targeting) which exhibit excellent selectivity and sensitivity toward O2(â¢-) over a broad range of pH, strong oxidants, and abundant reductants found in cells. In confocal imaging, flow cytometry, and 96-well microplate assay, HKSOX-1r has been robustly applied to detect O2(â¢-) in multiple cellular models, such as inflammation and mitochondrial stress. Additionally, our probes can be efficiently applied to visualize O2(â¢-) in intact live zebrafish embryos. These probes open up exciting opportunities for unmasking the roles of O2(â¢-) in health and disease.

A series of novel cyano oximino sulfonate derivatives were prepared from the reaction of arylsulfonyl chloride with different cyanoacetamide-based oximes ranging from the simplest unsubstituted amide to analogues containing N-ethyl (mimicking the Oxyma template), N-piperidinyl and N-morpholinyl chains. In addition, the cyano oximes, N-hydroxybenzimidoyl cyanide and N-hydroxypicolinimidoyl cyanide were also used in the synthesis of the novel cyano oximino sulfonate derivatives. The structures of the prepared compounds were confirmed by (1)H-NMR, (13)C-NMR, and elemental analysis. The preliminary bioassays showed that some of the title compounds, such as 2-oxo-2-(piperidin-1-yl)-N-(tosyloxy)acetimidoyl cyanide (TsPipOx), N-(tosyloxy)benzimidoyl cyanide (TsPhOX), N-(naphthalen-2-ylsulfonyloxy)-2-oxo-2-(piperidin-1-yl)acetimidoyl cyanide (NpsPipOx), 2-amino-N-(naphthalen-2-ylsulfonyloxy)-2-oxoacetimidoyl cyanide (NpsAmOx), N-(naphthalen-2-ylsulfonyloxy)benzimidoyl cyanide (NpsPhCN), and N-(naphthalen-2-ylsulfonyloxy)picolinimidoyl cyanide (NpsPyCN), showed anti-proliferation effect on the mouse fibroblast L929. The calculated IC50-values were ranging between 36.5 µg/mL and 0.235 mg/mL. However the anti-proliferation effects seem to be cytostatic rather than cytotoxic. The compounds only minimize the growth activity without completely killing the cells.

Sulfonated carbonaceous material useful as a solid acid catalyst was prepared from lignosulfonate, a waste of the paper-making industry sulfite pulping process, and characterized by 13C-NMR, FT-IR, TGA, SEM and elemental analysis, etc. The sulfonic acid group density and total density of all acid groups in the sulfonated carbonaceous material was determined by titration to be 1.24 mmol/g and 5.90 mmol/g, respectively. Its catalytic activity in the esterification of cyclohexanecarboxylic acid with anhydrous ethanol was shown to be comparable to that of the ionic exchange resin Amberlyst-15, when they were used in the same amount. In the meantime, the sulfonic acid group was found to be leached out by 26%-29% after it was exposed to hot water (95 °C) for 5 h. The catalytic usefulness of the prepared carbonaceous material was investigated by performing esterifications.

Synthetic hydrogel polymers were prepared by free radical photopolymerization in aqueous solution of the sodium salt of 2-acrylamido-2-methylpropane sulfonic acid (Na-AMPS). Poly(ethylene glycol) diacrylate (PEGDA) and 4,4'-azo-bis(4-cyanopentanoic acid) were used as the crosslinker and UV-photoinitiator, respectively. The effects of varying the Na-AMPS monomer concentration within the range of 30-50% w/v and the crosslinker concentration within the range of 0.1-1.0% mol (relative to monomer) were studied in terms of their influence on water absorption properties. The hydrogel sheets exhibited extremely high swelling capacities in aqueous media which were dependent on monomer concentration, crosslink density, and the ionic strength and composition of the immersion medium. The effects of varying the number-average molecular weight of the PEGDA crosslinker from [Formula: see text] = 250 to 700 were also investigated. Interestingly, it was found that increasing the molecular weight and therefore the crosslink length at constant crosslink density decreased both the rate of water absorption and the equilibrium water content. Cytotoxicity testing by the direct contact method with mouse fibroblast L929 cells indicated that the synthesized hydrogels were nontoxic. On the basis of these results, it is considered that photopolymerized Na-AMPS hydrogels crosslinked with PEGDA show considerable potential for biomedical use as dressings for partial thickness burns. This paper describes some structural effects which are relevant to their design as biomaterials for this particular application.

An anionic fluorene-phenylene poly{1,4-phenylene-[9,9-bis(4-phenoxy-butylsulfonate)]fluorene-2,7-diyl}-based copolymer containing on-chain perylenediimine (PDI) chromophoric units, PBS-PFP-PDI, was synthesized and its photophysical properties studied as aggregates and isolated chains in water and dioxane/water (1:1) solution. UV-vis and emission spectroscopy measurements, time-correlated single photon counting, and wide field imaging have been employed to investigate the excited-state behavior of the PBS-PFP-PDI copolymer, including the effect of environment on the energy and electron transfer to the on-chain PDI chromophore. Although the Förster overlap integral is favorable, no evidence is found for intramolecular singlet excitation energy transfer in isolated copolymer chains in solution. Fluorescence is suggested to involve an interchain process, thus revealing that isolated copolymer chains in solution do not undergo efficient intramolecular energy transfer. However, quenching of the PBS-PFP excited state by PDI is observed in aqueous media and ultrafast pump-probe studies in water or dioxane-water solutions show that electron transfer occurs from the phenylene-fluorene units to the PDI. The extent of electron transfer increases with aggregation, suggesting it is largely an interchain process. The interaction of the negatively charged PBS-PFP-PDI copolymer with the positively charged surfactant hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) in solution has also been studied. The copolymer PBS-PFP-PDI aggregates with the surfactant already at concentrations below the critical micelle concentration (cmc) and the nonpolar environment allows intermolecular energy transfer, observed by the weak emission band located at 630 nm that is associated with the emission of the PDI chromophore. However, the fact that the PDI photoluminescence (PL) lifetime (~1.4 ns) obtained in the presence of CTAB is considerably shorter than that of the nonaggregated chromophore (~5.4 ns) suggests that even in this case there is considerable PL quenching, possibly through some charge transfer route. The increase of the PBS-PFP-PDI photoluminescence intensity at surfactant concentrations above the cmc indicates deaggregation of polyelectrolyte within the initially formed polyelectrolyte-surfactant aggregates.

A superabsorbent composite (alginate-g-PAMPS/MMT) was prepared by graft copolymerization from alginate, 2-acrylamido-2-methyl-1-propanesulfonic acid (AMPS) and Na+ montmorillonite (MMT) in an inert atmosphere. Effects of polymerization variables on water absorbency, including the content of Na+ montmorillonite, sodium alginate, N,N'-methylenebisacrylamide and AMPS, were studied. The introduced montmorillonite formed a loose and porous surface and improved the water absorbency of the alginate-g-PAMPS/MMT superabsorbent composite. Swelling behaviors of the superabsorbent composites in various cationic salt solutions (NaCl, CaCl2 and FeCl3) and anionic salt solutions (NaCl and Na2SO4) were also systematically investigated. The superabsorbent composite was further characterized using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), rheology, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) taking alginate-g-PAMPS as a reference.

Photochemical bond-cleavage reactions are potentially useful in chemistry, bioorganic chemistry and medicinal chemistry. We previously reported on a photochemical cleavage reaction of 8-quinolinyl sulfonate (8-QS) derivatives in aqueous solution at neutral pH, which we proposed to proceed via an excited triplet state. In this report, we report on the synthesis of some new photocleavable 8-QS derivatives, in which halogen atoms or a nitro group was introduced at the 7-position, in an attempt to improve photoreactive properties and to produce a red-shift in the irradiation wavelength. The introduction of bromine and iodine resulted in an acceleration in the photoreaction by about 1.5 times, possibly due to a heavy atom effect. It was also found that 7-nitro-8-QS absorbs at >360 nm, and, as a result, the S-O bond of this compound can be cleaved by photoirradiation with a fluorescent lamp in aqueous solution and on silicon surface.
