Synthesis of Novel Benzofuran-Gathered C-2,4,6-substituted Pyrimidine Derivatives Conjugated by Sulfonyl Chlorides: Orally Bioavailable, Selective, Effective Antioxidants and Antimicrobials Drug Candidates

In the present study, we have made an effort to develop the novel synthetic antioxidants and antimicrobials with improved potency. The novel benzofuran-gathered C-2,4,6-substituted pyrimidine derivatives 5a, 5b, 5c, 5d, 5e, 5f, 6a, 6b, 6c, 6d, 6e, 6f, 7a, 7b, 7c, 7d, 7e, 7f, 8a, 8b, 8c, 8d, 8e, 8f, 9a, 9b, 9c, 9d, 9e, 9f were synthesized by simple and efficient four-step reaction pathway. Initially, o-alkyl derivative of salicylaldehyde readily furnish corresponding 2-acetyl benzofuran 2 in good yield, upon the treatment with potassium tertiary butoxide in the presence of molecular sieves. Further, Claisen-Schmidt condensation with aromatic aldehydes via treatment with thiourea followed by coupling reaction with different sulfonyl chlorides afforded target compounds. The structures of newly synthesized compounds were confirmed by IR, H-1 NMR, C-13 NMR, mass, and elemental analysis and further screened for their antioxidant and antimicrobial activities. The results showed that the synthesized compounds 8b, 8e, 9b, and 9e produced significant antioxidant activity with 50% inhibitory concentration higher than that of reference, whereas compounds 7d and 7c produced dominant antimicrobial activity at concentrations 1.0 and 0.5mg/mL compared with standard Gentamicin and Nystatin, respectively.

~(12)C~(6+)离子辐照对4种农作物种子出苗率及幼苗生长的研究

以能量为80MeV/u的12C6+离子为诱变源辐照油菜、胡麻、大葱和兵豆的干种子后,研究了不同剂量处理对4种农作物M1和M2代种子出苗率及幼苗生长的影响。实验结果表明:重离子所导致的M1代生物学效应因不同的物种而表现出一定的差异,适当剂量C离子辐照促进了油菜和胡麻M1代出苗率和幼苗的生长;而不同剂量的C离子辐照抑制了大葱的出苗率和幼苗的生长;兵豆3个剂量下的出苗率和对照相差很小,但90Gy辐照有利于其生长。到了M2代,4种作物辐照组的发芽率都低于各自的对照组;30Gy剂量下的油菜、胡麻和兵豆长势最好;大葱依然是对照的长势最好。

BINDING OF CYTOCHROME-C WITH 4-PYRIDYL DERIVATIVES MODIFIED ON THE GOLD ELECTRODE

In this work, the adsorption or binding of cytochrome c with 4-pyridyl derivatives modified on the gold electrode was studied. It was found that the concentrations of electrolyte had much influence on the adsorption of cytochrome c. At lower concentration

Plasma polymerization of C[subscript 4]F[subscript 8] thin film on high aspect ratio silicon molds

High aspect ratio polymeric micro-patterns are ubiquitous in many fields ranging from sensors, actuators, optics, fluidics and medical. Second generation PDMS molds are replicated against first generation silicon molds created by deep reactive ion etching. In order to ensure successful demolding, the silicon molds are coated with a thin layer of C[subscript 4]F[subscript 8] plasma polymer to reduce the adhesion force. Peel force and demolding status are used to determine if delamination is successful. Response surface method is employed to provide insights on how changes in coil power, passivating time and gas flow conditions affect plasma polymerization of C[subscript 4]F[subscript 8].

The surface geometries of the medium and high coverage carbon monoxide structures c(2 × 4)–(2CO) and p(root7- x root7)R19°–(4CO) structure

The surface geometries of the p (root7- x root7)R19degrees-(4CO) and c(2 x 4)-(2CO) layers on Ni {111} and the clean Ni {111} surface were determined by low energy electron diffraction structure analysis. For the clean surface small but significant contractions of d(12) and d(23) (both 2.02 Angstrom) were found with respect to the bulk interlayer distance (2.03 Angstrom). In the c(2 x 4)-(2CO) structure these distances are expanded, with values of d(12) = 2.08 Angstrom and d(23) = 2.06 Angstrom and buckling of 0.08 and 0.02 Angstrom, respectively, in the first and second layer. CO resides near hcp and fcc hollow sites with relatively large lateral shifts away from the ideal positions leading to unequal C-Ni bond lengths between 1.76 and 1.99 Angstrom. For the p(root7- x root7-)R19'-(4CO) layer two best fit geometries were found, which agree in most of their atomic positions, except for one out of four CO molecules, which is either near atop or between bridge and atop. The remaining three molecules reside near hcp and fcc sites, again with large lateral deviations from their ideal positions. The average C Ni bond length for these molecules is, however, the same as for CO on hollow sites at low coverage. The average CNi bond length at hollow sites, the interlayer distances, and buckling in the first Ni layer are similar to the c(2 x 4)(2CO) geometry, only the buckling in the second layer (0.08 Angstrom) is significantly larger. Lateral and vertical shifts of the Ni atoms in the first layer lead to unsymmetric environments for the CO molecules, which can be regarded as an imprint of the chiral p(root7- x root7-)R19degrees lattice geometry onto the substrate.
