AI Article Synopsis

  • The study investigates the chemistry of giant fullerene C, focusing on the synthesis of chloro derivatives from three specific isomers (234, 812, 811).
  • In C(234)Cl, two versions with different numbers of Cl atoms (16 and 18) share the same crystallographic position in a specific ratio.
  • The findings highlight different chlorination patterns in C(812)Cl and C(811)Cl, demonstrating how small changes in chlorination significantly alter the structure.

Article Abstract

The chemistry of a giant fullerene, C , has been extended by the synthesis and structural study of several chloro derivatives of three isolated pentagon rule (IPR) isomers of C nos. 234, 812, and 811. In the structure of C (234)Cl , two molecules with 16 and 18 attached Cl atoms occupy the same crystallographic site with an occupancy ratio of 61/39. The structures of C (812)Cl and C (812)Cl demonstrate substructure relationships of their chlorination patterns with single and double Cl attachments to 12 cage pentagons. The structure of C (811)Cl is compared with the known C (811)Cl thus revealing dramatic changes in the chlorination pattern, which occur with relatively small increases in the degree of chlorination.

Measurement of glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) in human red blood cells plays a critical role in the diagnosis and treatment of diabetes mellitus. However, recent studies have suggested large variation in the relationship between average glucose levels and HbA1c, creating the need to understand glucose variability at the cellular level. Here, we devised a fluorescence-based method to quantitatively observe GLUT1-mediated intracellular glucose analog tracer uptake in individual RBCs utilizing microfluidics and confocal microscopy.

A series of eight gold(I) N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) complexes [Au(IMes)(Ln)] based on 1,3-bis(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)imidazole-2-ylidene (IMes) and 7-azaindole derivatives (HLn), where n = 1-8 for HL1 = 5-fluoro-7-azaindole, HL2 = 5-bromo-7-azaindole, HL3 = 3-chloro-7-azaindole, HL4 = 3-iodo-7-azaindole, HL5 = 5-bromo-3-chloro-7-azaindole, HL6 = 5-bromo-3-iodo-7-azaindole, HL7 = 4-chloro-2-methyl-7-azaindole and HL8 = 7-azaindole, was prepared, characterised and studied for their in vitro anti-cancer and anti-inflammatory effects. The complexes showed significant cytotoxicity on human ovarian cancer cell lines (A2780, IC ≈ 8-19 μM and A2780R, IC ≈ 8-19 μM) and lowered toxicity in normal HaCat and MRC-5 cells. Cellular effects of the selected complexes 1 and 7 were evaluated in A2780 cells using flow cytometry.

Pin1 (peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase NIMA-interacting 1) is a unique peptidyl-prolyl isomerase (PPIase), and inactivation of Pin1 with a covalent inhibitor is a potential strategy for developing anticancer agents. Herein, a series of sulfolane amino-substituted 2-chloro-5-nitropyrimidine derivatives were disclosed as structurally distinct covalent inhibitors toward Pin1, which were validated for their covalent binding to Cys113 of Pin1 by X-ray cocrystal structures of compounds (IC = 11.55 μM) and (IC = 3.

-Methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptors, a subtype of ionotropic glutamate receptors in the central nervous system (CNS), have garnered attention for their role in brain disorders. Specifically, GluN2A-containing NMDA receptors have emerged as a potential therapeutic target for the treatment of depressive disorders and epilepsy. However, the development of GluN2A-containing NMDA receptor-selective antagonists, represented by -(4-(2-benzoylhydrazine-1-carbonyl)benzyl)-3-chloro-4-fluorobenzenesulfonamide (TCN-201) and its derivatives, faces a significant challenge due to their limited ability to penetrate the blood-brain barrier (BBB), hampering their characterization and further advancement.
