An effective adsorbent was synthesised from nanographene oxide for the removal of the alprazolam drug from the water sample solution. The dispersive solid-phase extraction method was used with α-pyridylamine grafted nanographene oxide to extract and analyse little amounts of alprazolam in biological materials. Before beginning the experimental analysis process, it is critical to use a simple and accessible sample preparation approach. In the current study, a technique for preconcentration and measurement of trace quantities of alprazolam in aqueous samples was introduced. The pH of extraction, the amount and type of elution solvent and the period of extraction were all tuned in the alprazolam analysis technique. Analytical parameters such as the concentration factor, the limit of detection of the technique and relative standard deviation (%) were achieved as 20, 8.0 µg L and 2.4%, respectively.

l-Asparaginase (l-ASNase) catalyzes the hydrolysis of l-asparagine, leading to its depletion and subsequent effects on the cellular proliferation and survival. In contrast to normal cells, malignant cells that lack asparagine synthase are extremely susceptible to asparagine deficiency. l-ASNase has been successfully employed in treating pediatric leukemias and non-Hodgkin lymphomas; however, its usage in adult patients and other types of cancer is limited due to significant side effects and drug resistance.

A Pyrrole-Fused Nanographene and its Edge-Perchlorinated Derivative Featuring a Corannulene Core and Five N-doped Heptagons.

Angew Chem Int Ed Engl

A pyrrole-fused analogue of warped nanographene, designated as deca-nitrogen doped 'WNG' (azaWNG), was synthesized through the annular fusion of decapyrroylcorannulene. The resulting azaWNG exhibited extremely limited solubility in common organic solvents and was characterized solely by mass spectrometry. Theoretical calculations revealed that azaWNG has a sunflower-like molecular structure with electron-deficient corannulene as the core and electron-rich pyrrole as the petals, demonstrating a significantly narrower energy gap compared to all-carbon WNG.

B,N-Embedded Helical Nanographenes Showing an Ion-Triggered Chiroptical Switching Function.

Intramolecular oxidative aromatic coupling of 3,6-bis(m-terphenyl-2'-yl)carbazole provided a bis(m-terphenyl)-fused carbazole, while that of 3,6-bis(m-terphenyl-2'-yl)-1,8-diphenylcarbazole afforded a bis(quaterphenyl)-fused carbazole. Borylation of the latter furnished a B,N-embedded helical nanographene binding a fluoride anion via a structural change from the three-coordinate boron to the four-coordinate boron. The anionic charge derived from the fluoride anion is stabilized over the expanded π-framework, which leads to the high binding constant (K) of 1×10 M.

Nanographene oxide (nGO) nanoparticles (NPs) have unique properties and are widely used in various fields, including biomedicine. These NPs, however, also exhibit toxic ef-fects and therefore, the understanding of the molecular mechanism of nGO toxicity is very im-portant mainly for the nanomedicine, especially the cancer therapy. This study aimed to examine the impact of nGO NPs on the expression of genes associated with endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, proliferation, and cancerogenesis in both normal human astrocytes and U87MG glioblas-toma cells.

Synthesis and Characterizations of Dibenzo-Fused Perioctacene.

Angew Chem Int Ed Engl

November 2024

Organic and Carbon Nanomaterials Unit, Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology Graduate University, 1919-1 Tancha, Onna-son, Kunigami-gun, Okinawa, 904-0495, Japan.

Dibenzoperioctacene (DBPO) with extended zigzag edges was synthesized and unambiguously characterized by a combination of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), mass spectrometry, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Variable-temperature (VT) NMR analysis indicated the closed-shell character of DBPO, yet the bond lengths in the single-crystal structure of DBPO aligned more closely with those of open-shell teranthene than closed-shell bisanthene. Spin-unrestricted density functional theory (DFT) calculations using various methods supported that ground state of DBPO might be on the borderline between closed- and open-shell singlet states, with a large singlet-triplet energy gap (ΔE), consistent with the VT NMR and bond-length analyses.
