Steric Constraints

Several weakly transported sugars were tested for transport by the Na+-dependent sugar carrier with slices of everted hamster intestinal tissue. Sugars were assumed to be transported by this carrier if the accumulation was diminished in the absence of Na+ and in the presence of the competitive inhibitor 1,5-anhydro-d-glucitol. The extent of accumulation was correlated with the number of hydroxyl groups in the d-gluco configuration if the ring oxygen was placed in the normal d-glucose position. 5-Thio-d-glucose, with a sulphur atom in the ring, was transported at about the same rate as d-glucose and had a similar Ki for d-galactose transport, but myoinositol was poorly accumulated. It is suggested that there is no hydrogen bonding at the ring oxygen atom, but that the oxygen atom is found at this position as a result of steric constraints. No sugar without a hydroxyl group in the d-gluco position at C-2 of the sugar, including d-mannose, 2-deoxy-d-glucose, 2-chloro-2-deoxy-d-glucose and 2-deoxy-2-fluoro-d-glucose, was transported by the Na+-dependent carrier, but these sugars and l-fucose weakly and competitively inhibit the Na+-dependent accumulation of l-glucose into slices of everted hamster intestinal tissue. It is concluded that the bond between the carrier and C-2 of the sugar may be covalent, and a possible mechanism for active intestinal transport is proposed.

Active Accumulation

Analogues of d-glucose modified at C-3, and in some cases at a second position, were prepared and tested for active accumulation by everted segments of hamster intestine. Their relative affinity for the sugar carrier was measured by tissue/medium ratio, Michaelis–Menten kinetics and competitive inhibition of d-galactose or methyl α-d-glucoside transport. d-Glucose and its 3-deoxy-3-fluoro, 3-chloro-3-deoxy and to a smaller extent its 3-bromo-3-deoxy derivatives, bound and were transported more strongly than 3-deoxy-d-glucose and other sugars not containing an electronegative atom in the gluco configuration at C-3. 3-Deoxy-d-galactose, 3,6-dideoxy-d-glucose and d-gulose, which have two alterations from the d-glucose structure, were not, or only very weakly, transported. The results are interpreted as indicating the presence of a hydrogen bond from the carrier to the hydroxyl group at C-3 of d-glucose. Spatial requirements are also discussed. New syntheses are reported for 3-chloro-3-deoxy- and 3-bromo-3-deoxy-d-glucose and 3,6-dideoxy-d-glucose.

Melicopine, melicopidine, and melicopicine are shown to be members of a new group of alkaloids derived from acridine. The structure of melicopicine, 1,2,3,4-tetramethoxy-10-methylacridone (II), is deduced from data reported in earlier papers. The presence of the same 10-methylacridone skeleton in melicopidine and melicopine is established by conversion of the trimethoxyphenols obtained from them by fission of the methylenedioxy ring with methanolic potash to the respective dimethoxy-o- and p-quinones previously prepared from melicopicine. This conversion also establishes the position of the methylenedioxy group in melicopine relative to the hydroxyl group in normelicopicine. Similar considerations applied to the ethoxydimethoxyphenols show the position of the methylenedioxy group in melicopidine relative to the hydroxyl group in normelicopicine, and in this case, lead to the complete structure for the alkaloid (XIII). The action of nitrous acid on normelicopine and normelicopidine gives two hydroxymethoxyquinones isomeric with that obtained by the action of sodium carbonate on the dimethoxy-o- and p-quinones. The same two hydroxymethoxyquinones also result from the action of caustic soda on the dimethoxy-o- and p-quinones respectively. Their structures, which can be deduced from the second method of preparation, confirm the positions of the methylenedioxy group in melicopine and melicopidine relative to the hydroxyl group of normelicopicine, and prove that the hydroxyl groups in normelicopine and normelicopidine are in the same position as that in normelicopicine, but they do not make possible a choice between alternative structures for melicopine. This choice depends on the position of the hydroxyl group of the noralkaloids relative to the remainder of the acridone molecule. By consideration of the mechanism of fission of the methylenedioxy ring, the hydroxyl group of the noralkaloids is shown to be situated peri to the acridone oxygen atom, i.e. at position 4. This is confirmed by the occurrence of hydrogen bonding. Consequently the complete structural formula for melicopine is XXIII. The properties of the alkaloids and a number of the degradation products are discussed.

The effect of exo-D-galacturonanase from carrot on O-acetyl derivatives of pectic acid of variousacetylation degree was studied. Substitution of hydroxyl groups at C(2) and C(3) of D-galactopyranuronic acid units influences the initial rate of degradation, degree of degradation and its maximum rate, the differences being found also in the time of limit degradations of the individual O-acetyl derivatives. Value of the apparent Michaelis constant increases with increase of substitution and value of Vmax changes. O-Acetyl derivatives act as a competitive inhibitor of degradation of D-galacturonan. The extent of the inhibition effect depends on the degree of substitution. The only product of enzymic reaction is D-galactopyranuronic acid, what indicates that no degradation of the terminal substituted unit of O-acetyl derivative of pectic acid takes place. Substitution of hydroxyl groups influences the affinity of the enzyme towards the modified substrate. The results let us presume that hydroxyl groups at C(2) and C(3) of galacturonic unit of pectic acid are essential for formation of the enzyme-substrate complex.

Several efforts have been dedicated to the development of lignin-based polyurethanes (PU) in recent years. The low and heterogeneous reactivity of lignin hydroxyl groups towards diisocyanates, arising from their highly complex chemical structure, limits the application of this biopolymer in PU synthesis. Besides the well-known differences in the reactivity of aliphatic and aromatic hydroxyl groups, experimental work in which the reactivity of both types of hydroxyl, especially the aromatic ones present in syringyl (S-unit), guaiacyl (G-unit), and p-hydroxyphenyl (H-unit) building units are considered and compared, is still lacking in the literature. In this work, the hydroxyl reactivity of two kraft lignin grades towards 4,4′-diphenylmethane diisocyanate (MDI) was investigated. 31P NMR allowed the monitoring of the reactivity of each hydroxyl group in the lignin structure. FTIR spectra revealed the evolution of peaks related to hydroxyl consumption and urethane formation. These results might support new PU developments, including the use of unmodified lignin and the synthesis of MDI-functionalized biopolymers or prepolymers.

The preparation of bioactive polymeric molecules requires the attention of scientists as it has a potential function in biomedical applications. In the current study, functional substitution of alginate with a benzoyl group was prepared via coupling its hydroxyl group with benzoyl chloride. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy indicated the characteristic peaks of aromatic C=C in alginate derivative at 1431 cm−1. HNMR analysis demonstrated the aromatic protons at 7.5 ppm assigned to benzoyl groups attached to alginate hydroxyl groups. Wetting analysis showed a decrease in hydrophilicity in the new alginate derivative. Differential scanning calorimetry and thermal gravimetric analysis showed that the designed aromatic alginate derivative demonstrated higher thermo-stability than alginates. The aromatic alginate derivative displayed high anti-inflammatory properties compared to alginate. Finally, the in vitro antioxidant evaluation of the aromatic alginate derivative showed a significant increase in free radical scavenging activity compared to neat alginate against DPPH (2,2-diphenyll-picrylhydrazyl) and ABTS free radicals. The obtained results proposed that the new alginate derivative could be employed for gene and drug delivery applications.

The preparation of 3α,12α-bisdimethylamino-5β-cholane dimethiodide, 3α,12α-bisdimethylamino-5β-cholane dimethiodide, 3α,12α- bisdimethylamino-24-nor-5β-cholanedimethiodide, and 3α,12α- bisdimethylamino-24-nor-5β-cholanediethiodide, from deoxycholic acid are described. During this work it was found that attempted copper- quinoline decarboxylation of dehydrocholic acid gives rise to lactol formation, and that what had previously been considered to be 3α,12α- dihydroxy-5β-cholane is a mixture of this compound and 12α,24- dihydroxy-5β-cholane. Comparable selectivity of attack by methanesulphonyl chloride and toluene-p-sulphonyl chloride occurs with various polyhydric alcohols derived from bile acids, as evidenced from the products of reduction of the sulphonates with lithium aluminium hydride. With both 5α- and 5β-cholane derivatives, a C 3 equatorial hydroxyl group exhibits comparable reactivity to the terminal primary hydroxyl group, generated from the bile acid carboxylic group, towards both sulphonyl chlorides. With axial hydroxyl groups at C 7 and C 12, toluene-p-sulphonate formation is much more difficult than methane- sulphonate formation. Reduction by means of lithium aluminium hydride of equatorial sulphonate esters at C 7 and C 12 gives rise to a methylene group, but the axial sulphonates under the same conditions give the axial alcohol. The same clear distinction between equatorial and axial sulphonate esters is not observed at C 3 and C 6, but 17α- methanesulphonyloxy-5α-androstane gives 5α-androstane and the 17β- ester gives 17β-hydroxy-5α-androstane. Reduction of 12-oximino groups in both 5α- and 5β-cholanes with sodium and ethanol, hydrogen in the presence of a catalyst, or lithium aluminium hydride gives solely the 12α-amino compound.

The possibility of using N-allylcarbothioamide derivatives as well as products of their iodine- and proton-initiated electrophilic heterocyclizations as chelating agents in complexation reactions with Zn(II) and Ag(I) ions is shown. Processing of the obtained experimental data showed that N-allythioamides of pyrimidinyl (cyclohexenyl) carboxylic acids H2L1 – H2L3 and their proton- and iodo-cyclization products HL4, HL5 containing four nucleophilic reaction centers (two oxygen atoms of the carbonyl and hydroxyl groups and N-, S-carbothioamide groups or N-atoms of the dihydrothiazole moiety) are polydentate ligands capable of coordinating with metal ions to form stable six-membered chelate metallocycles. A series of new chelating mono-, bi- and polynuclear complexes Zn(II) and Ag (I) of the composition [Zn2L1,32]n, [Zn2(HL1-3)2(CH3COO)2], [Ag2(HL1,3)2]n, [Zn(HL1-3)2], [Ag(H2L3)2NO3], [Zn(HL4,5)2], K[Ag(HL4,5)2] were synthesized and isolated in solid state. Their molecular structure was established by methods of elemental chemical analysis, NMR 1H, IR and UV-Vis spectroscopy. At a ratio of M:L 1:2, complexes were isolated in which two ligand molecules H2L1 − H2L3 are coordinated to the metal ion by the sulfur atoms of the carbothioamide group and the oxygen of the mono-deprotonated hydroxyl group. It was established that the products of the proton-/iodocyclization HL4, HL5 in the complex formation pass into the thione tautomeric form with coordination through the oxygen atoms of the deprotonated hydroxyl group and nitrogen atoms of the dihydrothiazole heterocycle. At M:L 1:1, binuclear or polynuclear coordination compounds are formed. It was shown that polymerisation in complexes [Zn2L1,32]n and [Ag2(HL1,3)2]n is due to the formation of Zn−(O2SN)−Zn and Ag−O−Ag polymer chains. Investigation of the solubility of the resulting complexes showed that the polymer complexes are weakly soluble or insoluble in DMSO, DMF, while the mononuclear are soluble in methanol, as well as in water.

Bacterial cellulose obtained by culturing Gluconacetobacter sucrofermentans in HS environment was converted to sulfonate derivatives using methane-, toluene- and 2-phthalimidoethanesulfonic acids in pyridine. When the ratio of the starting reagents is 1 : 1, the modification of bacterial cellulose according to the primary hydroxyl group of glucopyranose fragments is most likely. The formation of 6-substituted bacterial cellulose derivatives was observed in the reaction mixture. The IR spectra of the reaction products contain absorption bands, which are specific for (O–SO2) group in the region 1377-1338 cm−1 (as), 1178-1154 cm−1 (s), fragments of the corresponding sulfonic acids, as well as free hydroxyl groups of glucopyranose in the region 3495-3382 cm−1. Bacterial cellulose 2-phthalimidoethanesulfonate was dissolved in pyridine. After drying with a desiccant in a desiccator, it turned into a dense transparent film of brown color. The increased molecular film allows to explain the side reaction occurring between the oxo group and fragments of one of the chains of modified cellulose and the non-substituted hydroxymethyl group. The IR spectrum of bacterial cellulose 6-(2-phthalimidoethanesulfonate) contains absorption bands in the region 1711 cm−1, which are specific for (Ar–CO–O) group, and absorption bands in the region 1618 cm−1, which prove the presence of (CO–NH) group. In order to impart antibiotic properties to the bacterial cellulose 6-(2-phthalimido-ethanesulfonate) film, it was physically modified with clotrimazole. The obtained experimental data showed that the films subjected to treatment with a 1% solution of clotrimazole have antibacterial and antifungal effects and prevent the growth of pathogenic microbiota on the wound surface. The exit rates of clotrimazole from the bacterial cellulose 6-(2-phthalimidoethanesulfonate) film and from the pure bacterial cellulose film differed, but only slightly. 2-Phthalimidoethanesulfonate bacterial cellulose films can be used to form composites of effective wound covering, since in addition to the unique properties of bacterial cellulose itself (low allergenicity and adhesion to the wound surface, high hygroscopicity) they will have a regenerating effect.

AbstractThe hydration of an outer layer on nuclear waste glasses is known to occur during leaching, but the actual speciation of hydrogen (as water or hydroxyl groups) in these layers has not been determined. As part of the Nevada Nuclear Waste Storage Investigations Project, we have used infrared spectroscopy to determine hydrogen speciations in three nuclear waste glass compositions (SRL-131 & 165, and PNL 76-68), which were leached at 90°C (all glasses) or hydrated in a vapor-saturated atmosphere at 202°C (SRL-131 only). Hydroxyl groups were found in the surface layers of all the glasses. In addition, molecular water was found in the surface of SRL-131 and PNL 76-68 glasses that had been leached for several months in deionized water, and in the vapor-hydrated sample. The water/hydroxyl ratio increases with increasing reaction time; molecular water makes up most of the hydrogen in the thick reaction layers on vapor-phase hydrated glass while only hydroxyl occurs in the least reacted samples. Using the known molar absorptivities of water and hydroxyl in silica-rich glass the vapor-phase layer contained 4.8 moles/liter of molecular water, and 0.6 moles water in the form hydroxyl. A 15 micrometer layer on SRL-131 glass formed by leaching at 90°C contained a total of 4.9 moles/liter of water, 2/3 of which was as hydroxyl. The unreacted bulk glass contains about 0.018 moles/liter water, all as hydroxyl.The amount of hydrogen added to the SRL-131 glass was about 70% of the original Na + Li content, not the 300% that would result from alkali-hydronium ion (H30+) interdiffusion. If all the hydrogen is then assumed to be added as the result of alkali-H+ interdiffusion, the molecular water observed may have formed from condensation of the original hydroxyl groups according to:20H = H20 molecular + 00where 00 refers to a bridging oxygen, and OH refers to a hydroxyl group attached to a silicate polymer. The hydrated layer on the nuclear waste glasses appears to be of relatively low water content (4 to 7% by weight) and is not substantially hydroxylated. Thus, these layers do not have many of the properties associated with “gel” layers.
