Published: January 2012

This communication reports a new approach to synthesize amphiphilic block copolymers. The copolymers with well-defined structures were synthesized by macromolecular azo-coupling reaction between the diazonium salt of aniline-functionalized PEG and the polymeric blocks with a terminal suitable for the azo-coupling reaction.

Proximity-dependent biotinylation coupled with mass spectrometry enables the characterization of subcellular proteomes. This technique has significantly advanced neuroscience by revealing sub-synaptic protein networks, such as the synaptic cleft and post-synaptic density. Profiling proteins at this detailed level is essential for understanding the molecular mechanisms of neuronal connectivity and transmission.

: The incorporation of radionuclides into peptides and larger biomolecules requires efficient and sometimes biorthogonal reaction conditions, to which click chemistry provides a convenient approach. : Traditionally, click-based radiolabeling techniques have focused on classical click chemistry, such as copper(I)-catalyzed alkyne-azide [3+2] cycloaddition (CuAAC), strain-promoted azide-alkyne [3+2] cycloaddition (SPAAC), traceless Staudinger ligation, and inverse electron demand Diels-Alder (IEDDA). : However, newly emerging click-based radiolabeling techniques, including tyrosine-click, sulfo-click, sulfur(VI) fluoride exchange (SuFEx), thiol-ene click, azo coupling, hydrazone formations, oxime formations, and RIKEN click offer valuable alternatives to classical click chemistry.

The reaction of cyanogen azide with strained-ring containing primary and secondary amines led to the isolation of energetic molecules deriving their energy content from both strained rings as well as aminotetrazoles. Azo-coupling of these materials afforded novel high-nitrogen energetic materials of very high sensitivity. All compounds were chemically characterized by IR, NMR, single-crystal X-ray crystallography, and high-resolution mass spectrometry.

This research describes an easy, rapid, and inexpensive magnetic solid-phase extraction (MSPE) approach employing FeO magnetic nanoparticles modified with cetylpyridinium chloride (FeO@CPC/MNPs) for extracting amoxicillin (AMX) and doxycycline (DOX) after derivatization with 4-chloroaniline as a color reagent. The azo-coupling of AMX and DOX with the color reagent in the alkaline medium caused yellow and yellow-orange azo dyes with maximum absorption wavelengths of 435 and 438 nm, respectively. The UV-Vis spectroscopy was utilized to determine the target analyte after the extraction procedure.
