Covalent immobilization of ssDNA fragments onto silicon-based materials was performed using the thiol-yne reaction. Chemical functionalization provided alkyne groups on the surface where the thiol-modified oligonucleotide probes can be easily photoattached as microarrays, reaching an immobilization density around 30 pmol cm. The developed method presents the advantages of spatially controlled probe anchoring (by using a photomask), direct attachment without using cross-linkers, and short irradiation times (20 min). Hybridization efficiencies up to 70%, with full complementary strands, were reached. The approach was evaluated by scoring single nucleotide polymorphisms with a discrimination ratio around 15. Moreover, the potential applicability of the proposed methodology is demonstrated through the specific detection of 20 nM of a genomic target of bacterial Escherichia coli.

The present work reports on the preparation, characterization, and evaluation of a set of novel triphenyl-modified silica-based stationary phases without and with embedded ion-exchange sites for mixed-mode liquid chromatography. The three synthesized triphenyl phases differed in additionally incorporated ion-exchange sites. In one embodiment, allyltriphenylsilane was bonded to thiol-modified silica by thiol-ene click reaction, leading to particles with no ion-exchange sites.

Synthesis of Clickable Isotactic Poly(vinyl ether)s through Organocatalytic Stereoselective Cationic Copolymerization.

Chemistry

State Key Laboratory of Physical Chemistry of Solid Surfaces, College of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, Xiamen University, Xiamen, 361005, China.

By virtue of the high reliability of click chemistry, polymers with clickable groups provide a useful platform for the rapid synthesis of polymer materials with diverse functionalities and architectures. However, the polymerization of clickable vinyl monomers with a concurrent regulation on tacticity remains underdeveloped. Herein, we report the successful development of a stereoselective cationic copolymerization of C-C triple bond-containing vinyl ethers with simple alkyl vinyl ethers by employing confined Brønsted acid as catalyst, which allows for the synthesis of alkyne-functionalized vinyl ether copolymers with high isotacticity (up to 90 % m), controlled molecular weight, and variable content of C-C triple bonds.
