几种稀土氟化物和氧化物纳米发光材料的制备、性能及其应用探索研究

目前，纳米材料已经应用于很多医药和生物领域，诸如临床诊断、药物传送、体内体外荧光标记等。稀土离子掺杂的纳米材料因其独特的发光性质已被认为是有前景的生物荧光标记，二氧化硅作为环境友好发光材料也受到越来越多的重视。本论文合成稀土离子掺杂的下转换和上转换发光纳米材料，并进行表面功能化，使之连接生物药物小分子，以期作为荧光标记。同时采用不同方法制备不同大小的二氧化硅球，并研究其发光性质。 采用多醇法成功地制备出结晶程度高的CeF3:Tb3+纳米粒子。氧化硅和胺基硅烷包覆使纳米粒子具有胺基功能化，然后通过SOCl2成功地活化生物素使之连接到纳米粒子上并随之与亲合素键合。胺基功能化的CeF3:Tb3+ 纳米粒子发光产生严重的猝灭，而生物分子与纳米粒子结合后发光得到很大程度上的恢复。生物功能化的CeF3:Tb3+ 纳米粒子能很好地分散在水中，为这些CeF3:Tb3+ 纳米粒子作为生物荧光探针奠定了基础。同时以P123为结构导向剂，介孔氧化硅成功地包覆CeF3:Tb3+ 纳米粒子。介孔氧化硅层存在部分有序的六方介孔体系和部分微孔结构，该复合物保持绿色荧光性质并具有相当大的孔容和大的表面积。布洛芬能载入复合物的孔道中，在24 h内释放完全。因此，这类复合物可以在靶向的药物传送体系中具有潜在的应用价值。 利用多醇法制备出NaYF4:Yb3+, Er3+ 纳米粒子。NaYF4:Yb3+, Er3+ 纳米粒子进行胺基功能化，并通过氧化寡糖链成功地活化亲合素，使之连接到胺基功能化的纳米粒子上。生物功能化的 NaYF4:Yb3+, Er3+纳米粒子仍保持较好的上转换发光性质，可以作为生物体系的荧光探针。另外用 P123作为结构导向剂和助表面活性剂PVP 或 TMB 成功地使NaYF4:Yb3+, Er3+ 纳米粒子包覆介孔氧化硅。外层氧化硅层有介孔结构。该复合物保持红色荧光性质，并具有大的孔容、表面积。布洛芬能载入复合物的孔道中，在12 h内完全释放。 通过高温溶剂法合成出YVO4:Eu3+ 纳米粒子。粒子结晶程度高，为椭球形状，长轴为80 nm，短轴为43 nm。YVO4:Eu3+ 纳米粒子的荧光发射跃迁主要源于5D0能级。FT-IR 谱和 XPS 谱表明纳米粒子表面的配体为油酸和油胺分子。Eu3+ (5D0 level) 寿命因表面有机配体的存在比体材料的寿命短。 成功地制备出不同大小的纳米至亚微米尺度且具有发光性能的单分散二氧化硅球，其尺寸随胺基浓度的增加而增大。烧结后粒子仍保持单分散性，但其尺寸缩小。烧结后的二氧化硅球含有C杂质。亚微米尺度的二氧化硅球的发射带最大值随氨丙基三乙氧基硅烷（APTES）浓度的增加而红移，但是纳米尺度的二氧化硅球的发射带最大值红移更大。单分散二氧化硅球发光原因归于二氧化硅结构中存在的碳和氧缺陷。

手性有机小分子路易斯碱催化剂的设计、合成及其在亚胺不对称还原中的应用

手性胺是合成天然产物和手性药物的重要中间体，亚胺的不对称催化还原是制备光学活性手性胺的最直接有效的方法之一。但是，由于C＝N双键的反应活性较弱以及容易发生E/Z异构等问题，亚胺的不对称催化还原具有很大的挑战性，既具有高对映选择性又具有宽广底物普适性的催化剂很少。 本文分别由手性脯氨酸、哌啶酸、哌嗪酸以及氨基醇出发，设计和合成了一系列结构新颖、合成简便、性能优良的酰胺类有机小分子路易斯碱催化剂，以廉价的三氯氢硅为氢源，用这些催化剂催化亚胺不对称还原，得到了非常优良的收率、对映选择性和前所未有的底物普适性。 文献研究认为，除N-甲酰基外，分子内含有芳香酰胺是能催化亚胺还原的有机小分子路易斯碱催化剂具有较高对映选择性的必要条件，我们研究发现N-甲酰脯氨酸非芳香酰胺类催化剂（包括结构简单的C2-对称型脯氨酰胺类催化剂），对N-芳基酮亚胺的还原可获得达86%的对映选择性，远高于同类芳香酰胺催化剂，证明N-甲酰非芳香酰胺类路易斯碱催化剂在亚胺还原中也能得到高的对映选择性。 在进一步研究中，我们以手性六元哌啶酸为模板，分别设计合成了N-甲酰哌啶酸芳香酰胺和N-甲酰哌啶酸非芳香酰胺两类催化剂，其中芳香酰胺催化剂（S）-N-（甲酰基）哌啶-2-酸-1-萘基酰胺（28）和非芳香酰胺催化剂（2S,1'S,2'S）-N-（甲酰基）-哌啶-2-酸（1',2'-二苯基-2'-乙酰氧基-乙基）酰胺（30）显示出非常优良的催化活性和对映选择性，对于N-芳基芳香酮亚胺的还原，无论是缺电子体系还是富电子体系，绝大部分都能得到很高的收率（达98%）和对映选择性（达96% ee)。特别值得一提的是30对一些脂肪族亚胺和α,β-不饱和亚胺的还原，虽然底物为E/Z混合物，也能得到很高的收率（达93%）和对映选择性（达95% ee)，这样的底物普适性在过渡金属催化体系中也是前所未有的。 现有的催化亚胺还原的高对映选择性催化体系大多仅适用于甲基酮亚胺底物，对位阻较大的非甲基酮亚胺很难获得好的结果。我们以L-哌嗪酸为模板设计和合成出的（S）-N-（甲酰基）-哌嗪-2-酸-4-对叔丁基苯磺酰基-苯基酰胺不但对N-芳基甲基酮亚胺有很好的对映选择性（达90% ee)，而且对于大位阻的N-芳基非甲基酮亚胺有更好的对映选择性（达97% ee)。该催化剂与30在底物普适性方面具有很好的互补性。 我们还设计了基于1,2-二苯基氨基醇为模板的新型N-甲酰路易斯碱有机小分子催化剂，首次发现结构简单的N-甲酰（1S,2R）二苯基氨基醇能较好的催化N-芳基酮亚胺，最高可以得到82%的对映选择性。 针对我们设计合成的结构新颖、性能优良的催化剂，我们对催化机理进行了探讨和解释，提出了几个假想的机理模型。 Catalytic enantioselective reduction of imines represents one of the most straightforward and efficient methods for the preparation of chiral amines, an important intermediate for the synthesis of natural products and chiral drugs. However, asymmetric reduction of imines remains a big challenge and highly enantioselective catalysts with a satisfactorily broad substrate scope remain elusive. Factors contributing to the difficulty of this transformation include the weak reactivity of the C=N bond and the existence of inseparable mixtures of E/Z isomers. Starting from chiral proline, pipecolinic acid, piperazine-2-carboxylic acid and 1,2-diphenyl amino alcohol, a series of structurally simple and easily prepared amides were developed as highly effective Lewis basic organocatalysts for the asymmetric reduction of imines with trichlorosilane as the reducing agent, which promoted the reduction of N-aryl imines with high yields and excellent enantioselectivities with an unprecedented substrate spectrum. In the literature, it has been believed that besides the N-formyl group, the existence of an arylamido group in the structure of Lewis basic organocatalysts is a prerequisite for obtaining high enantioselectivity in the catalytic reduction of imines. However, we found that the N-formyl-L-prolinamides bearing non-arylamido groups, including structurally simple C2-symmetric tetraamides, could also work as effective Lewis basic catalysts to promote the asymmetric reduction of ketimines with high enantioselectivities (up to 86% ee), which are even more enantioselective than the analogues with arylamido groups. In further studies, we developed novel N-formamides with arylamido groups and non-arylmido groups as Lewis basic catalysts using the commercially available L-pipecolinic acid as the template. The catalysts (S)-1-formyl-piperidine-2-carboxylic acid naphthylamide 28 and (2S,1'S,2'S)-acetic acid 2-[(1-formyl-piperidine-2-carbonyl) -amino]-1,2-diphenyl-ethyl ester 30 were found to promote the reduction of a broad range of N-aryl imines in high yields (up to 98%) and excellent ee values (up to 96%) under mild conditions. Furthermore, catalyst 30 also exhibited high enantioselectivities (up to 95% ee) for the challenging aliphatic ketimines and α,β-unsaturated imines despite that these imines exist as E/Z isomeric mixtures. The broad substrate spectrum of this catalyst is unprecedented in catalytic asymmetric imine reduction, including transition-metal-catalyzed hydrogenation processes. Many of the currently available highly enantioselective catalytic systems only tolerate methyl ketimines, which gave poor results for bulkier non-methyl ketimines. Starting from L-piperazine-2-carboxylic acid, we developed (S)-4-(4-tert- butylbenzenesulfonyl)-1-formyl-N-phenyl-piperazine-2-carboxamide as highly enantioselective Lewis basic catalysts for the hydrosilylation of both methyl ketimines and steric bulky non-methyl ketimines. Moreover, higher enantioselectivities were obtained for non-methyl ketimines than methyl ketimines under the catalysis of this catalyst. Thus, this catalyst system complements with 30 in terms of the substrate scope. We also found that easily accessible (1R,2S)-N-formyl-1,2-diphenyl- 2-aminoethanol worked as an effective Lewis basic catalyst in the enantioselective hydrosilylation of ketimines, affording high enantioselectivities (up to 82% ee) for a broad range of ketimines. To rationalize the high efficiencies of the structurally novel catalysts we developed, several catalytic models have been proposed.

吲哚生物碱Desbromoarborescidine A 的全合成及烯胺C-亚磺酰化反应研究

从新几内亚核桃木的树皮中分离得到的吲哚类喹诺里西定生物碱10-Desbromoarborescidine A，因发现其具有阻滞钙离子通道的活性而倍受关注。10-Desbromoarborescidine A由A、B、C、D四个环组成，只有一个手性中心，是吲哚生物碱中结构较简单的一种，常作为此类生物碱全合成方法的模型化合物。但迄今为止，能高效而简便的实现手性10-Desbromoarborescidine A不对称全合成方法线路不多，大多数以不对称诱导的方式建立其手性中心，手性催化的方式仅有一例金属催化。从逆合成分析可知，Desbromoarborescidine A的全合成可以通过亚胺不对称催化还原进行关键的手性中心构建，而本课题组在之前的研究中通过手性有机小分子催化剂的发展，已将三氯硅烷氢转移还原亚胺发展成了一类简便实用、高效、高对映选择性并具有优良底物适应范围的不对称催化反应，我们希望以这一反应作为关键手段，发展一条Desbromoarborescidine A及其类似物不对称合成新路线。 根据我们设计的新路线，首先成功合成了其关键中间体，然后我们进行了关键的不对称催化尝试。用本实验室已有的高性能有机小分子催化剂虽得到了较好的对应选择性，但是产率很低。同时，为了验证整条线路的可行性，我们也用消旋的中间体进行拉通线路的尝试。但不幸的是，在脱除保护基时遇到了很大困难。尝试换不同的保护基，或改变脱保护基的顺序，都未能成功合成目标产物。究其原因可能是由于吲哚的特殊性造成的，吲哚类亚胺与常规的芳香亚胺有较大的差异，其NH基团无论保护还是不保护，对与其2位相联接的C=N双键均有很大的影响，导致其不对称催化还原难以进行。另外，由于所设计的还原产物含有处在吲哚苄位的胺基，稳定性较差，造成保护基脱除困难。 烯胺C-亚磺酰化反应是本课题组最近发现的一个新反应，之前未见文献报道。本研究对该反应进行了反应条件优化和底物扩展，发现带Cbz，Ac，COt-Bu，CO2Et，Bz等保护基的一系列环状和非环状烯胺在亚磺酸钠、DMAc和MeSiCl3的共同作用下能高效高产率生成β-胺基烯基亚砜类新化合物，为合成多官能团化的烯基亚砜新化合物提供了一条简便实用的途径。 The main constituent of Dracontomelum mangiferum B1, indoloquinolizidine alkaloid 10-Desbromoarborescidine A, has drawn great attention due to its calcium channel blocking activity. Its molecular structure is relatively simple compared with the other alkaloids of the same type, which has only one chiral center, albeit with four cycles A, B, C, and D. This compound is often used as a model target for exploring different strategies for the total synthesis of indole alkaloids. Nevertheless, so far there still lack practical and highly efficient methods for the asymmetric total synthesis of 10-Desbromoarborescidine A. Most of the current available methods rely on stoichiometric asymmetric synthesis for the construction of the chiral center. There is only one example reporting utilization of asymmetric catalysis, but with transition metal complex as the catalyst. Our retrosynthetic analysis shows that catalytic asymmetric reduction of imine could be used as the key step for the construction of the chiral center of Desbromoarborescidine A. Since in the previous studies our group has developed the asymmetric reduction of imines by trichlorosilane into a practical and highly efficient and enantioselective method using newly designed chiral organocatalysts, we hope to apply this method to develop a novel synthetic route for the total synthesis of Desbromoarborescidine A and its analogues in this study. According to the newly designed synthetic route, we first accomplished the synthesis of the key intermediates which was then examined for the critical asymmetric catalysis. The asymmetric reduction using the highly efficient organocatalysts, developed in our lab afforded high ee but poor yield. We tried different reaction conditions to improve the yield, but failed to get any good results. Simultaneously, to vertify the feasibility of the synthetic route we designed, we also tired to go through the route toward the racemic synthesis of Desbromoarborescidine A. But unfortunately, protection and deprotection proved to be big hurdles. All the different protection groups and different sequences of protection and deprotection we tried failed to get us through the designed synthetic sequence and furnish the final product. Most likely, the indole part is the culprit behind the failures.The NH group of the indole, no matter protected or not, may impact the catalytic asymmetric reduction of C-N double bond connected with 2-C. Additionally, the reduction product we designed contains an amino group in the β-position of the indole, which may cause problems due to its instability. C-sulfenylation of enamines is a novel reaction discovered recently by our group, which has not been seen before in the literature. In this study, optimization of the reaction conditions and exploration of the substrate scope were further undertaken for this reaction, which reveal that a series of enamines with N-Cbz, Ac, COt-Bu, CO2Et protection groups could all undergo smooth C-sulfinylations with the comined use of sodium benzene sulphinate, DAMc and MeSiCl3, efficiently furnishing the β-amino vinylsulfoxide products in high yield, affording a practical and highly efficient methods for synthesis of functional vinylsulfoxides.

Evidence for perimeter sites over SmOx-modified Rh(100) surface by CO chemisorption

SmOx modified Rh(l 0 0) surfaces have been in-situ prepared by depositing metallic Sin and subsequently oxidizing under controlled conditions, and the interaction between the lanthanide oxide and transition metal has been characterized by means of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and high-resolution electron-energy-loss spectroscopy (HREELS) as well as thermal desorption spectroscopy (TDS). As evidenced, the adsorption of CO on the modified surfaces shows some different features to the original surface of Rh(l 00). The covering of SmOx blocks some sites on the surface and consequently suppresses adsorption of the typical CO species with an uptake at about 500 K, while a novel desorption peak centered at 260 K emerges in the CO TDS. Correspondingly, the XP spectrum exhibits a new C Is peak at 287.9 eV and 0 Is peak at 532.6 eV. The intensity of the low temperature peak varies with the coverage of SmOx, which shows an actual correlation to the perimeter sites of SmOx particles on the surface. (C) 2004 Elsevier B.V.

Density functional study on the reaction mechanism of palladium-catalyzed addition of cyanoboranes to Alkynes

The B3LYP hybrid density functional method has been carried Out to Study theoretically the mechanisin of Pd(0)-catalyzed alkyne cyanoboration reaction. Both the intermolecular and intramolecular alkyne cyanoboration reactions were studied. For each reaction, three paths were proposed. In path A of each reaction, the first step is B-CN bond oxidative addition to bisphosphine complex Pd(PH3)(2), in path B of each reaction, the first step is alkyne coordination to bisphosphine complex Pd(PH3)2, and in path C of each reaction, the first step is the PH3 dissociation front Pd(PH3)2 to form monophosphine complex Pd(PH3) For both reactions, path B is favored.

Theoretical studies on the reaction mechanism of palladium(0)-catalyzed addition of thiocyanates to alkynes

The reaction mechanism of the Pd(0)-catalyzed alkyne cyanothiolation reaction is investigated by MP2, CCSD(T) and the density functional method B3LYP. The overall reaction mechanism is examined. The B3LYP results are consistent with the results of CCSD(T) and MP2 methods for the isomerization, acetylene insertion and reductive elimination steps, but not for the oxidative addition step. For the oxidative addition, the bisphosphine and monophosphine pathways are competitive in B3LYP, while the bisphosphine one is preferred for CCSD(T) and MP2 methods.
