Theoretical Design of Near-Infrared Fluorescent Sensor for F Anion Detection Based on 10-Hydroxybenzo[]quinoline Backbone.

Proper design and development of near-infrared (NIR) fluorescent sensors is very important for applications in vivo. In this work, we theoretically designed a ratiometric and NIR fluorescent sensor based on the 10-hydroxybenzo[]quinoline (HBQ) backbone via systematically investigating the substituent effects of electron-donating groups (-NH, -CH, -C(CH)) and electron-withdrawing groups (-NO, -CN, -F, -Cl, -CF) at the proton donor site on the proton transfer process in HBQ in both the S and the S states. According to the calculated potential energy profiles along the proton transfer as well as the photophysical properties among all the derivatives, we successfully screened out that 7NH-HBQ is a promising fluorescent sensor exhibiting the near IR emission spectra accompanied by the large Stokes shift.

Design of highly sensitive phosphorescence sensor for determination of procaterol hydrochloride based on inhibition of KClO3 oxidation fluorescein isothiocyanate.

Procaterol hydrochloride (Prh) can inhibit KClO3 oxidation of fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) to form a non-phosphorescent compound, which causes room temperature phosphorescence (RTP) of FITC in the system to enhance sharply the linear relationship between ∆Ip and the Prh content. Thus, a rapid response and highly sensitive phosphorescence sensor for the determination of Prh has been developed based on the inhibiting effect of Prh on KClO3 oxidation of FITC. This simple, high sensitivity (detection limit (LD) calculated by 3Sb /k was 0.

Tetrel-hydride interaction between XH₃F (X = C, Si, Ge, Sn) and HM (M = Li, Na, BeH, MgH).

A tetrel-hydride interaction was predicted and characterized in the complexes of XH3F···HM (X = C, Si, Ge, Sn; M = Li, Na, BeH, MgH) at the MP2/aug-cc-pVTZ level, where XH3F and HM are treated as the Lewis acid and base, respectively. This new interaction was analyzed in terms of geometrical parameters, interaction energies, and spectroscopic characteristics of the complexes. The strength of the interaction is essentially related to the nature of X and M groups, with both the larger atomic number of X and the increased reactivity of M giving rise to a stronger tetrel-hydride interaction.

Electric field-driven acid-base chemistry: proton transfer from acid (HCl) to base (NH3/H2O).

It is well-known that single H3N-HCl and H2O-HCl acid-base pairs do not react to form the ion pairs, H4N(+)Cl(-) and H3O(+)Cl(-), in isolation. On the basis of ab initio method, we propose a physical method of external electric field (Eext) to drive the proton transfer from acid (HCl) to base (NH3/H2O). Our results show that when Eext along the proton-transfer direction achieves or exceeds the critical electric field (Ec), the proton transfer occurs, such as, the Ec values of proton transfer for H3N-HCl and H2O-HCl are 54 × 10(-4) and 210 × 10(-4) au, respectively.

Some measures for making halogen bonds stronger than hydrogen bonds in H2CS-HOX (X = F, Cl, and Br) complexes.

The properties and applications of halogen bonds are dependent greatly on their strength. In this paper, we suggested some measures for enhancing the strength of the halogen bond relative to the hydrogen bond in the H(2)CS-HOX (X = F, Cl, and Br) system by means of quantum chemical calculations. It has been shown that with comparison to H(2)CO, the S electron donor in H(2)CS results in a smaller difference in strength for the Cl halogen bond and the corresponding hydrogen bond, and the Br halogen bond is even stronger than the hydrogen bond.

Exploitation of phosphorescent labelling reagent of fullerol-fluorescein isothiocyanate and new method for the determination of trace alkaline phosphatase as well as forecast of human diseases.

A new phosphorescent labelling reagent consisting of fullerol, fluorescein isothiocyanate and N,N-dimethylaniline (F-ol-(FITC)(n)-DMA) was developed.

Thioredoxin reductase 1 upregulates MCP-1 release in human endothelial cells.

To know if thioredoxin reductase 1 (TrxR1) plays a role in antioxidant defense mechanisms against atherosclerosis, effect of TrxR1 on expression/release of monocyte chemoattractant protein (MCP-1) was investigated in activated human endothelial-like EAhy926 cells.

It was found that overexpression of TrxR1 enhanced, while knockdown of TrxR1 reduced MCP-1 release and expression.
