Published: March 2018

In this study, we report a 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine (DNPH) derivatization HPLC/UV method to quantify carbonyl compounds (CCs) either in electronic cigarette (EC) refill solutions or in vaped aerosols. Vaped aerosol samples were entrained in a 1 L atm min ambient lab air stream and pulled through an impinger containing a DNPH solution for derivatization. The mass change tracking (MCT) approach was used to check mass balance. Refill solution samples were diluted (2, 4, and 10 times) in a DNPH/acetonitrile solution for derivatization. EC vaping samples were collected for 5, 10, or 15 puffs (2-s puff duration) with a 10-s interpuff interval. The DNPH derivatization method was used successfully for the estimation of both EC liquid CCs concentrations and vaping emission factors. The results for formaldehyde (FA), acetaldehyde (AA), and butyraldehyde (BA) were determined as 10.4 ± 3.10 μg mL (27.6 ± 7.43 ng puff), 1.9 ± 0.83 μg mL (4.4 ± 1.98 ng puff), and 4.4 ± 2.82 μg mL (12.0 ± 7.43 ng puff), respectively.

Preclinical evaluation of the potential PARP-imaging probe [carbonyl-C]DPQ.

Division of Nuclear Medicine, Department of Biomedical Imaging and Image-Guided Therapy, Medical University of Vienna, Vienna, Austria.

Background: Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) enzymes are crucial for the repair of DNA single-strand breaks and have become key therapeutic targets in homologous recombination-deficient cancers, including prostate cancer. To enable non-invasive monitoring of PARP-1 expression, several PARP-1-targeting positron emission tomography (PET) tracers have been developed. Here, we aimed to preclinically investigate [carbonyl-C]DPQ as an alternative PARP-1 PET tracer as it features a strongly distinct chemotype compared to the frontrunners [F]FluorThanatrace and [F]PARPi.

Functional pincer ligands that engage in metal-ligand cooperativity and/or are capable of redox non-innocence have found a great deal of success in catalysis. These two properties may be found in metal complexes of the 2,6-bis(pyrazol-3-yl)pyridine (bpp) ligands. With this goal in mind, we have attempted the coordination of 2,6-bis(5-trifluoromethylpyrazol-3-yl)pyridine (LCF3) and its Bu analogue 2,6-bis(5--butylpyrazol-3-yl)pyridine (LtBu) to Mo(0) by reactions with mixed phosphine/carbonyl complexes [Mo(CO)(MeCN)(PMePh)] 1-3 (1 ≤ ≤ 3).

Dynamic Kinetic Activation of Aziridines Enables Radical-Polar Crossover (4 + 3) Cycloaddition with 1,3-Dienes.

State Key Laboratory of Applied Organic Chemistry & College of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, Lanzhou University, Lanzhou 730000, China.

The cycloaddition of aziridines with unsaturated compounds is a valuable method for synthesizing nitrogen heterocycles. However, this process is predominantly substrate-controlled, posing significant challenges in regulating the regioselectivity of the C-N bond cleavage. In this study, we report a nickel-catalyzed dynamic kinetic activation strategy that enables catalyst-controlled activation of aziridines.

Molybdate, an oxidized form of molybdenum, facilitates molybdenum to be taken into cell, and thus to be included as a cofactor in the structure of enzymes necessary to ensure homeostasis. Although this compound provides the catalysis and electron transport of many biochemical reactions, it causes serious health problems in animals at high concentrations. For this reason, its recovery of water resources is one of the main subjects of scientific studies called bioremediaiton.

Merging Photoinduced Electron Transfer with Hydrogen Atom Transfer: Formal β-C(sp)-H Pyridination of Carbonyls.

J Org Chem

College of Material, Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, Key Laboratory of Organosilicon Chemistry and Material Technology, Ministry of Education, Hangzhou Normal University, Hangzhou 311121, China.

In this study, a novel approach that combines photoinduced electron transfer (ET) with hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) has been introduced for the selective β-C(sp)-H pyridination of carbonyl compounds. This method is notable for its absence of transition metals and its ability to function under benign reaction conditions, resulting in a range of pyridinated carbonyl derivatives with consistently moderate to good yields. The significance of this technique is further underscored by its potential for the late-stage functionalization of pharmaceutically significant molecules.
