To develop a new class of neutral fluorescent dyes with mitochondrial staining capacity, a series of functional dyes were obtained from Nile red (2a–e) and coumarin (3a–e) with different amide compounds via Suzuki coupling reactions.

A new class of benzothiadiazole-oligo(3-hexylthiophene) flanked dicyanomethylenated quinacridone derivatives DCNQA-BT-Tn (n = 1–3) has been designed and synthesized in good yield by iterative bromination and Suzuki coupling reactions, followed by Knoevenagel condensation.

A primary effort in the understanding of the progression of atherosclerotic disease has been methods development for visualization of the atherosclerotic plaque. We introduce a new method for the qualitative analysis of lipids in atherosclerotic fatty streaks which also retains those lipids for biochemical evaluation. An original aspect of the process is the ability to view an entire fatty streak en face, selectively stained for specific lipid classes within the lesion.New Zealand white rabbits were fed a high cholesterol diet(0.15%-0.3% for 14 wks). The aorta was removed and fixed in Carson's phosphate buffered formaldehyde followed by dual staining in the fluorescent dyes Nile red and filipin. Stock solutions of nile red(0.5mg/ml acetone) and filipin(2.5mg/ml dimethyl formamide) were prepared and kept at -20°C; all subsequent steps were at RT. 0.5cm × 1.0cm pieces of aorta were trimmed and adventitia removed. The pieces were then washed 3×15 min in PBS w/o CaMg, soaked in Nile red(NR)/filipin(Fl) stain(100(il NR stock + 200μl Fl stock in 10 ml PBS for 30 min, washed in PBS 3×30 min, rinsed with distilled water, mounted(Crystal Mount, Biomedia) and coverslipped and viewed by fluorescence microscopy.

AbstractThe effect of chemical environment surrounding a synthetic heterogeneous catalyst active site is investigated using the hydrophilic imprinting of silica. Two model reaction systems have been used for this study: (i) Knoevenagel condensation of 3-nitrobenzaldehyde and malononitrile and (ii) Suzuki coupling of bromobenzene and phenylboronic acid. Using a catalyst in which isolated imprinted amines are surrounded by an acidic silanol-rich environment led to rate accelerations of over 120-fold relative to catalysts in which the amines are surrounded by a hydrophobic environment consisting of trimethylsilyl functional groups for system (i). This result parallels our previous study on the effect of the outer sphere composition on rate acceleration of Knoevenagel reactions using isophthalaldehyde as the aldehyde reactant. We also extended our method for the hydrophilic imprinting of bulk silica to organometallic systems, by successfully synthesizing a tethered palladium complex within the imprinted pocket. This material was used as an active catalyst for (ii). Our results show that a hydrophobic framework environment results in higher initial turnover frequencies than an acidic silanol-rich framework for the Suzuki coupling reaction of bromobenzene and phenylboronic acid, albeit with a lower overall effect than observed in the Knoevenagel system (i). Altogether, these results demonstrate the control of chemical reactivity via the rational design of the outer sphere using an imprinting approach.
