A general synthetic procedure leading to isotopomeric dihydro-2(3H)furanones (gamma-butyrolactones) containing two, four, or six deuterium atoms has been developed. The labeled dihydro-2(3H)furanones were synthesized in quantitative yield from the saturated diacid C4 (succinic) or unsaturated diacids C4 (fumaric, maleic, or acetylendicarboxylic) in the presence of Ru4H4(CO)8(PBu3)4 using a deuterium pressure of 180 bar at 180 degrees C. This methodology was applied to the total synthesis of a hexadeuterated matairesinol lignan: The 3,4-bis[[3-methoxy-4-(phenylmethoxy)phenyl]methyl]dihydro-2(3H)furanone-[7,7',8,8',9',9'-D6] (benzyl-protected matairesinol-D6) was fully characterized.

Anthropogenic input of excess nutrients stimulates massive nitrous oxide (NO) production in estuaries with distinct seasonal variations. Here, nitrogen isotopic and isotopomeric signatures were utilized to investigate the seasonal dynamics of NO production and nitrification at the middle reach of the eutrophic Pearl River Estuary in the south of China. Elevated NO production primarily via ammonia oxidation (> 1 nM-N d) occurred from April to November, along with increased temperature and decreased dissolved oxygen concentration.

N-Labeled azides are important probes for infrared and magnetic resonance spectroscopy and imaging. They can be synthesized by reaction of primary amines with a N-labeled diazo-transfer reagent. We present the synthesis of N-labeled 2-azido-1,3-dimethylimidazolinium salts as a N-labeled diazo-transfer reagent.

Human intervention in nature, especially fertilization, greatly increased the amount of NO emission. While nitrogen fertilizer is used to improve nitrogen availability and thus plant growth, one negative side effect is the increased emission of NO. Successful regulation and optimization strategies require detailed knowledge of the processes producing NO in soil.

Mitochondrial (mt) DNA and nuclear (n) DNA have known structures and roles in cells; however, they are rarely compared under specific conditions such as oxidative or degenerative environments that can create damage to the DNA base moieties. Six purine lesions were ascertained in the mtDNA of wild type (wt) CSA (CS3BE-wtCSA) and wtCSB (CS1AN-wtCSB) cells and defective counterparts CS3BE and CS1AN in comparison with the corresponding total (t) DNA (t = n + mt). In particular, the four 5',8-cyclopurine (cPu) and the two 8-oxo-purine (8-oxo-Pu) lesions were accurately quantified by LC-MS/MS analysis using isotopomeric internal standards after an enzymatic digestion procedure.

Soret-excited resonance Raman spectra (λ 413.1 nm) were acquired for manganese(III) and gold(III) tris(pentafluorophenyl)corrole, each as four different isotopomeric samples: natural abundance, fully pyrrole-N-substituted, fully meso-C-substituted, and fully pyrrole-N-meso-C-substituted. The spectra were modeled with density functional theory-based vibrational analyses, which in general did an excellent job of reproducing both the absolute frequencies and isotope shifts.
