A novel and sensitive derivatization procedure for the determination of 2-cynaoacetamide in pharmaceutical samples using liquid chromatography with the fluorescence detection was discovered. The method is based on derivatization of 2-cynaoacetamide using 2-hydroxyacetophenone as a new derivatization reagent. The product of derivatization reaction was isolated and characterized using spectroscopic techniques namely LC-MS, NMR and IR. The structure of 2-cyanoacetamide derivative was unambiguously assigned as a 2-amino-4-phenylfuran-3-carboxamide. Two derivatization systems were optimized in terms of reaction temperature, reaction time, pH and concentration of 2-hydroxyacetophenone, and a new pre- and post-derivatization HPLC methods were developed. The separations on HPLC with pre-column derivatization were accomplished using stationary phase based on a XBridge C18 column (100×4.6, 3.5μm) and isocratic elution using the mobile phase acetonitrile - 0.1% formic acid (30:70, v/v). The separations on the HPLC with post-column derivatization were performed on stationary phase on a TSKgel Amide-80 column (150×4.6mm, 3μm). The mobile phase was a mixture of acetonitrile, methanol and 10mM sodium formate buffer at pH=4.5 in ratio 3:2:95 (v/v). Both HPLC methods were fully validated in terms of linearity, sensitivity (limit of detection and limit of quantification), accuracy and precision according to ICH guidelines. The pre-column derivatization method was linear in the range 1.1-2000μg/l with method accuracy≥98.2% and method precision RSD≤4.8%. The post-column derivatization method was linear in the range 12-2000μg/l. Method accuracy≥96.3% and method precision RSD≤3.5%. Proposed new methods were proved to be highly sensitive, simple and rapid, and were successfully applied to the determinations of 2-cynaoacetamide in pregabalin.

Determination of the optimal method for measuring malondialdehyde in human saliva.

While few methodological studies have been published on the salivary measurement of malondialdehyde (MDA), none have precisely detailed the analytical method. This work presents the development of an analytical method for MDA measurement in microvolumes of saliva samples from healthy individuals, using thiobarbituric acid derivatization and fluorescence reading of the formed compound. This method was progressively designed to meet specific constraints such as the limited sample volume available, cost-effectiveness of each assay, time required for analysis and costs.

Use of Biotin-Labeled Geranyl Pyrophosphate for Analysis of Ykt6 Geranylgeranylation.

Functionally derivatized analogs of prenyl lipids are valuable tools for the detection and analysis of prenylated proteins. Using a biotinylated analog of geranylgeranyl, we previously identified Ykt6 as a substrate for a novel protein prenyltransferase, termed geranylgeranyltransferase type III (GGTase-III). Ykt6 is an evolutionarily highly conserved SNARE protein that regulates multiple intracellular trafficking pathways, including intra-Golgi trafficking and autophagosome-lysosome fusion.

To explore the mechanism by which vinegar-processed Euphorbiae Pekinensis Radix regulates gut microbiota and reduces intestinal toxicity, this study aimed to identify key microbial communities related to vinegar-induced detoxification and verify their functions. Using a derivatization method, the study measured the content of short-chain fatty acids(SCFAs) in feces before and after vinegar-processing of Euphorbiae Pekinensis Radix. Combined with the results of previous gut microbiota sequencing, correlation analysis was used to identify key microbial communities related to SCFAs content.

The fluorescence detection of amino compounds and the evaluation of their content in environmental samples are vital, not only for assessing food quality but also for studying soil organic matter. Here, we present the synthesis and application of a novel fluorescent probe, 4-(9-acridone)benzylmethyl carbonochloride (APE-Cl), for detecting amino compounds via a chloroformate reaction with fluorescence detection. The complete derivatization reaction of APE-Cl with amino compounds can be accomplished in aqueous acetonitrile within 5 min at room temperature, using 0.

Post-SELEX modification of quinine aptamers through neoacetalization.

Org Biomol Chem

January 2025

Department of Chemistry, University of Turku, Henrikinkatu 2, 20500 Turku, Finland.

In this article, a neoacetalization-based method for post-SELEX modification of aptamers is introduced. Three modified quinine binding aptamer scaffolds were synthesized by replacing three different nucleosides of the binding site with a (2,3)-4-(methoxyamino)butane-1,2,3-triol residue. These aptamer scaffolds were incubated in different aldehyde mixtures with and without quinine, allowing the reversible formation of -methoxy-1,3-oxazinane (MOANA) nucleoside analogues through dynamic combinatorial chemistry.
