Metathesis polymerization-derived monolithic membranes for solid-phase extraction coupled with diffuse reflectance spectroscopy.

Abstract

Novel monolithic disks were prepared via ring opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) from norborn-2-ene (NBE), a crosslinker, i.e., 1,4,5,8,8a-hexahydro-1,4,4,5,8, exo, endo-dimethanonaphthalene (DMN-H6) and tris(norborn-5-ene-2-ylmethylenoxy)methylsilane, respectively, 2-propanol and toluene (25:25:41:9, all %, w/w) using RuCl2(PCy3)2(CHPh) (Cy=cyclohexyl) as initiator and triphenylphosphine (PPh3) as modulator. Disks 1-2 mm thick were prepared by polymerization in a mold, disks thinner than 1mm were prepared by impregnation of nylon or other porous filters prior to the polymerization step. These disks were evaluated for the preconcentration of iodine and selected organic solutes from dilute aqueous samples by solid-phase extraction (SPE). Quantitative measurement of the extracted solutes was achieved by diffuse-reflectance spectroscopy (DRS) directly on the surface of the disk.

Addition of difluorocarbene to 3',4'-unsaturated nucleosides: synthesis of 2'-deoxy analogues with a 2-oxabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane framework.

Treatment of protected 2'-deoxy-3',4'-unsaturated nucleosides derived from adenosine and uridine with difluorocarbene [generated from bis(trifluoromethyl)mercury and sodium iodide] gave fused-ring 2,2-difluorocyclopropane compounds. Stereoselective alpha-face addition to the dihydrofuran ring resulted from hindrance by the protected beta-anomeric nucleobases. A protected uracil compound was converted smoothly into the cytosine derivative via a 4-(1,2,4-triazol-1-yl) intermediate. Removal of the protecting groups gave new difluorocyclopropane-fused nucleoside analogues. The solid-state conformation of the nearly planar furanosyl ring in the uracil compound had a shallow 2E pucker, and a more pronounced 1E conformation was present in the furanosyl ring of the cytosine derivative.

Synthesis and structure-activity relationships of uracil nucleotide derivatives and analogues as agonists at human P2Y2, P2Y4, and P2Y6 receptors.

A series of UTP, UDP, and UMP derivatives and analogues were synthesized and evaluated at the human pyrimidinergic P2Y receptor subtypes P2Y2, P2Y4, and P2Y6 stably expressed in 1321N1 astrocytoma cells. Substituents at N3 of UTP were poorly tolerated by P2Y2 and P2Y4 receptors. In contrast, a large phenacyl substituent at N3 of UDP was well tolerated by the P2Y6 receptor, yielding a potent and selective P2Y6 receptor agonist (3-phenacyl-UDP, EC50=70 nM, >500-fold selective). The most potent and selective P2Y2 receptor agonist of the present series was 2-thio-UTP (EC50=50 nM, >or=30-fold selective vs P2Y4 and P2Y6). All modifications at the uracil base of UTP led to a decrease in potency at the P2Y4 receptor. A beta,gamma-dichloromethylene modification in the triphosphate chain of 5-bromo-UTP was tolerated by all three receptor subtypes, thus opening up a new strategy to obtain ectonucleotide diphosphohydrolase- and phosphatase-resistant P2Y2, P2Y4, and P2Y6 receptor agonists.
