[¹¹ C]Carbonyl Difluoride-a New and Highly Efficient [¹¹ C]Carbonyl Group Transfer Agent.

ABSTRACT: Herein, the synthesis and use of [¹¹ C]carbonyl difluoride for labeling heterocycles with [¹¹ C]carbonyl groups in high molar activity is described. A very mild single-pass gas-phase conversion of [¹¹ C]carbon monoxide into [¹¹ C]carbonyl difluoride over silver(II) fluoride provides easy access to this new synthon in robust quantitative yield for labeling a broad range of cyclic substrates, for example, imidazolidin-2-ones, thiazolidin-2-ones, and oxazolidin-2-ones. Labeling reactions may utilize close-to-stoichiometric precursor quantities and short reaction times at room temperature in a wide range of solvents while also showing high water tolerability. The overall radiosynthesis protocol is both simple and reproducible. The required apparatus can be constructed from widely available parts and is therefore well suited to be automated for PET radiotracer production. We foresee that this straightforward method will gain wide acceptance for PET radiotracer syntheses across the radiochemistry community.

Rapid one-pot radiosynthesis of [carbonyl-11C]formamides from primary amines and [11C]CO2.

Project description:BackgroundFormamides are common motifs of biologically-active compounds (e.g. formylated peptides) and are frequently employed as intermediates to yield a number of other functional groups. A rapid, simple and reliable route to [carbonyl-11C]formamides would enable access to this important class of compounds as in vivo PET imaging agents.ResultsA novel radiolabelling strategy for the synthesis of carbon-11 radiolabelled formamides ([11C]formamides) is presented. The reaction proceeded with the conversion of a primary amine to the corresponding [11C]isocyanate using cyclotron-produced [11C]CO2, a phosphazene base (2-tert-butylimino-2-diethylamino-1,3-dimethylperhydro-1,3,2-diazaphosphorine, BEMP) and phosphoryl chloride (POCl3). The [11C]isocyanate was subsequently reduced to [11C]formamide using sodium borohydride (NaBH4). [11C]Benzyl formamide was obtained with a radiochemical yield (RCY) of 80% in 15?min from end of cyclotron target bombardment and with an activity yield of 12%. This novel method was applied to the radiolabeling of aromatic and aliphatic formamides and the chemotactic amino acid [11C]formyl methionine (RCY?=?48%).ConclusionsThis study demonstrates the feasibility of 11C-formylation of primary amines with the primary synthon [11C]CO2. The reactivity is proportional to the nucleophilicity of the precursor amine. This novel method can be used for the production of biomolecules containing a radiolabelled formyl group.

Rapid and Efficient Synthesis of [11C]Trifluoromethylarenes from Primary Aromatic Amines and [11C]CuCF3.

Project description:Prior studies have shown that trifluoromethylarenes can be labeled in high molar activities (A m > 200 GBq/μmol) with positron-emitting carbon-11 (t 1/2 = 20.4 min) by the reaction of the copper(I) derivative of [11C]fluoroform [11C]CuCF3, with several types of precursors, such as aryl iodides, arylboronic acids, and aryldiazonium salts. Nonetheless, these precursors can be challenging to synthesize, and in the case of diazonium salts, are unstable. Methods that reduce challenges in precursor preparation for the synthesis of [11C]trifluoromethylarenes are desirable to enhance possibilities for developing biologically relevant 11C-labeled compounds as radiotracers for biomedical imaging with positron emission tomography (PET). Here, we explored the production of no-carrier-added [11C]trifluoromethylarenes from commercially available primary aromatic amines through reactions of [11C]CuCF3 with diazonium salts that were generated in situ. Moderate to high isolated decay-corrected radiochemical yields (RCY) (32-84%) were obtained rapidly (within 2 min) for many para-substituted and meta-substituted primary aromatic amines bearing a halo, methoxy, thiomethyl, hydroxy, nitro, nitrile, carboxyl, ethylcarboxy, or trifluoromethyl substituent. Null to low RCYs (0-13%) were observed only for ortho bromo-, nitro-, or nitrile-substituted precursors. This new radiosynthetic method usefully expands options for producing PET radiotracers bearing a [11C]trifluoromethyl group, especially from aryl amine precursors.

A new agent for derivatizing carbonyl species used to investigate limonene ozonolysis.

Project description:A new method for derivatizing carbonyl compounds is presented. The conversion of a series of dicarbonyls to oximes in aqueous solution and from gas-phase sampling was achieved using O-tert-butyl-hydroxylamine hydrochloride (TBOX). Some advantages of using this derivatization agent include: aqueous reactions, lower molecular weight oximes, and shortened oxime-formation reaction time. Additionally, the TBOX derivatization technique was used to investigate the carbonyl reaction products from limonene ozonolysis. With ozone (O3) as the limiting reagent, four carbonyl compounds were detected: 7-hydroxy-6-oxo-3-(prop-1-en-2-yl)heptanal; 3-Isopropenyl-6-oxoheptanal (IPOH), 3-acetyl-6-oxoheptanal (3A6O) and one carbonyl of unknown structure. Using cyclohexane as a hydroxyl (OH•) radical scavenger, the relative yields (peak area) of the unknown carbonyl, IPOH, and 3A6O were reduced indicating the influence secondary OH radicals have on limonene ozonolysis products. The relative yield of the hydroxy-dicarbonyl based on the chromatogram was unchanged suggesting it is only made by the limonene + O3 reaction. The detection of 3A6O using TBOX highlights the advantages of a smaller molecular weight derivatization agent for the detection of multi-carbonyl compounds. The use of TBOX derivatization if combined with other derivatization agents may address a recurring need to simply and accurately detect multi-functional oxygenated species in air.

N,N-Dimethylaminoxy Carbonyl, a Polar Protecting Group for Efficient Peptide Synthesis.

Project description:Peptide coupling with minimal protection is one of the desired methods for the synthesis of peptides and proteins. To achieve regioselective amide bond formation, side chain protection is often essential; however, protecting groups potentially diminish peptide solubility and render the polar polyamide chain amphipathic due to their apolar nature. In this manuscript, we describe a new protecting group, N,N-dimethylaminoxy carbonyl (Dmaoc), and its use in peptide coupling reactions. The Dmaoc group has a relatively polar character compared to the Boc group, which is a conventional protecting group for the N ε-amine of Lys residues. This polar protecting group is removable by reduction in the buffer containing (±)-dithiothreitol (DTT). Furthermore, the Dmaoc group proved compatible with peptide ligation strategies featuring the activation of N-acyl diaminobenzamides (Dbz) with sodium nitrate to generate the respective benzotriazole leaving group. The Dmaoc/Dbz strategy described in this manuscript provides a new method for the chemical synthesis of peptides.

Nitrogen-Mediated Graphene Oxide Enables Highly Efficient Proton Transfer.

Project description:Two-dimensional (2D) graphene and graphene oxide (GO) offer great potential as a new type of cost-efficient proton-exchange membranes (PEM) for electrochemical devices. However, fundamental issues of proton transfer mechanism via 2D membranes are unclear and the transfer barrier for perfect graphene are too high for practical application. Using ab initio molecular dynamic simulations, we screened the proton transfer barrier for different un-doped and nitrogen doped GO membranes, and clarified the corresponding transfer mechanisms. More significantly, we further identify that N-mediated GO can be built into a highly efficient PEM with a proton transfer rate of seven orders of magnitude higher than an un-doped case via. a proton relay mechanism between a ketone-like oxygen and a pyridine-like nitrogen across the vacancy site. The N-doped 2D GO is also impermeable to small molecules, and hence a highly efficient PEM for practical applications.

Fluorescence/photoacoustic imaging-guided nanomaterials for highly efficient cancer theragnostic agent.

Project description:Imaging modalities combined with a multimodal nanocomposite contrast agent hold great potential for significant contributions in the biomedical field. Among modern imaging techniques, photoacoustic (PA) and fluorescence (FL) imaging gained much attention due to their non-invasive feature and the mutually supportive characteristic in terms of spatial resolution, penetration depth, imaging sensitivity, and speed. In this present study, we synthesized IR783 conjugated chitosan-polypyrrole nanocomposites (IR-CS-PPy NCs) as a theragnostic agent used for FL/PA dual-modal imaging. A customized FL and photoacoustic imaging system was constructed to perform required imaging experiments and create high-contrast images. The proposed nanocomposites were confirmed to have great biosafety, essentially a near-infrared (NIR) absorbance property with enhanced photostability. The in vitro photothermal results indicate the high-efficiency MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cell ablation ability of IR-CS-PPy NCs under 808 nm NIR laser irradiation. The in vivo PTT study revealed the complete destruction of the tumor tissues with IR-CS-PPy NCs without further recurrence. The in vitro and in vivo results suggest that the demonstrated nanocomposites, together with the proposed imaging systems could be an effective theragnostic agent for imaging-guided cancer treatment.

A new structural arrangement in proteins involving lysine NH3+ group and carbonyl.

Project description:Screening of the Protein Data Bank led to identification of a recurring structural motif where lysine NH3+ group interacts with backbone carbonyl. This interaction is characterized by linear atom arrangement, with carbonyl O atom positioned on the three-fold symmetry axis of the NH3+ group (angle C?-N?-O close to 180°, distance N?-O ca. 2.7-3.0?Å). Typically, this linear arrangement coexists with three regular hydrogen bonds formed by lysine NH3+ group (angle C?-N?-acceptor atom close to 109°, distance N?-acceptor atom ca. 2.7-3.0?Å). Our DFT calculations using polarizable continuum environment suggest that this newly identified linear interaction makes an appreciable contribution to protein's energy balance, up to 2?kcal/mol. In the context of protein structure, linear interactions play a role in capping the C-termini of ?-helices and 310-helices. Of note, linear interaction involving conserved lysine is consistently found in the P-loop of numerous NTPase domains, where it stabilizes the substrate-binding conformation of the P-loop. Linear interaction NH3+ - carbonyl represents an interesting example of ion-dipole interactions that has so far received little attention compared to ion-ion interactions (salt bridges) and dipole-dipole interactions (hydrogen bonds), but nevertheless represents a distinctive element of protein architecture.

A Hybrid {Silk@Zirconium MOF} Material as Highly Efficient AsIII-sponge.

Project description:Exposure of humans to Arsenic from groundwater drinking sources is an acute global public health problem, entailing the urgent need for highly efficient/low-cost Arsenite (AsIII) up-taking materials. Herein we present an innovative hybrid-material, ZrMOF@SFd operating like an "AsIII-sponge" with unprecedented efficiency of 1800 mg AsIII gr-1. ZrMOF@SFd consists of a neutral Zirconium Metal-Organic Framework [ZrMOF] covalently grafted on a natural silk-fiber (SFd). ZrMOF itself exhibits AsIII adsorption of 2200?mg gr-1, which supersedes any -so far- known As???-sorbent. Using XPS, FTIR, BET-porosimetry data, together with theoretical Surface-Complexation-Modeling (SCM), we show that the high-As???-uptake is due to a sequence of two phenomena:[i] at low AsIII-concentrations, surface-complexation of H3AsO3 results in AsIII-coated voids of ZrMOF, [ii] at increased AsIII-concentrations, the AsIII-coated voids of ZrMOF are filled-up by H3AsO3 via a partitioning-like mechanism. In a more general context, the present research exemplifies a mind-changing concept, i.e. that a "partitioning-like" mechanism can be operating for adsorption of metalloids, such as H3AsO3, by metal oxide materials. So far, such a mechanism has been conceptualized only for the uptake of non-polar organics by natural organic matter or synthetic polymers.

Highly Efficient Uptake of TcO4 - by Imidazolium-Functionalized Wood Sawdust.

Project description:99Tc is a radioactive fission product, mainly in the form of TcO4 -, with good solubility and mobility in the environment. The development of effective and inexpensive materials to remove TcO4 - from nuclear industry wastewater or contaminated water is significant. Wood sawdust is a byproduct of the wood processing industry and is an abundant, low-cost, and sustainable material. The mesostructure of wood consists of numerous hollow cells that are joined endwise to form an interconnected channel matrix capable of rapid transfer of ions. Imidazolium-functionalized wood sawdust (IM-WS) was synthesized using natural wood sawdust by a two-step reaction. It has excellent properties of TcO4 -/ReO4 - adsorption including rapid adsorption dynamics (30 s to equilibrium), good adsorption stability (pH 3-9), high selectivity (adsorption of 45.4 Re % in 1000 times excess of NO3 - ions, 76.6 Re % in 6000 times excess of SO4 2- ions, and 92.2 Tc % in a simulated mixed solution; after adsorption, the concentration of TcO4 - decreased to 0.056 ppb from the initial concentration of 12.09 ppb in 1000 times excess of SO4 2-), and in particular low production costs. These characteristics give it great prospects for low-level radioactive wastewater treatment and environmental remediation.
