Download The Synthesis, Polymerization and Reactions of Enantiomerically Pure Phosphaalkenes by Spencer Christopher Serin B.Sc. (Hons.) The University of Western Ontario, 2010 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE AND POSTDOCTORAL STUDIES (Chemistry) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) August 2016 © Spencer Christopher Serin, 2016 Abstract This thesis outlines the polymerization and novel reactivity of enantiomerically pure compounds featuring the relatively uncommon phosphaalkene moiety. Chapter 1 introduces the chemistry of the phosphaalkene (Ar-P=CR2) structural fragment. This motif is compared and contrasted to the established chemistry of C=N and C=C groups. Similarities and differences are highlighted by an examination of: (a) phosphaalkene synthesis, (b) phosphaalkene polymerization and (c) phosphaalkene-metal coordination. Chapter 2 details the addition reactions of MeM (M = MgBr, Li) nucleophiles to enantiomerically pure phosphaalkene-oxazoline 1.10a [PhAk-Ox, MesP=CPh(CMe2Ox)]. Of note, the reaction of MeMgBr and PhAk-Ox is highly diastereoselective and affords a new P-chiral phosphine oxazoline ligand. Chapters 3 and 4 report the free radical initiated homo- and co-polymerizations (with styrene) of enantiomerically pure phosphaalkene-oxazolines 1.10a (Chapter 3) and 4.1a [MesP=CPh(3-C6H4Ox), Chapter 4]. The coordination of rhodium(I) to copolymers of 1.10a and styrene permits the isolation of novel macromolecular complexes. Additionally, polymers of 4.1a display unique spectroscopic signatures that permit the direct assignment of styrene- phosphaalkene linkages in the polymer backbone. Chapters 5 and 6 highlight the coordination chemistry of phosphaalkenes. Chapter 5 discusses the syntheses of κ3(PNN)-copper(I) complexes featuring enantiomerically pure pyridine- bridged phosphaalkene-oxazoline 5.1a [ArP=CPh(2-C5H3N-6-Ox)]. Chapter 6 explores the insertion of the P=C functional group into Pd–R bonds, permitting the synthesis of novel ii phosphapalladacyclopropanes (6.1a-b) and palladium(II) complexes featuring 1,2- dihydropyridinato donors (6.3 and 6.4). Chapter 7 provides perspective for the work contained within this thesis. iii Preface Sections of this work have previously been published. Sections of the introductory Chapter 1 have been published in Chemical Society Reviews, for a review on main group containing polymers which was written in equal collaboration with Andrew M.

  • Design of Sensors for Highly Phosphorylated Natural Compounds
    Design of sensors for highly phosphorylated natural compounds Dissertation Submitted for the Degree Doctor rerum naturalium (Doctor rer. nat.) at the Faculty of Chemistry and Pharmacy University of Freiburg by Rahel Hinkelmann Rheinfelden (Baden) 2020 Vorsitzender des Promotionsausschusses: Prof. Dr. Stefan Weber Dekan: Prof. Dr. O. Einsle Referent/in: Prof. Dr. H. J. Jessen Korreferent/in: Prof. Dr. M. Müller Datum der mündlichen Prüfung: 30.10.2020 Abstract Highly phosphorylated metabolites, e.g. inositol polyphosphates (InsPs), diphospho- inositol phosphates (PP-InsPs), inorganic polyphosphate (polyP) and Magic spot nu- cleotides (MSN) regulate various biological processes. Their distinctive role in biology remain still elusive particularly concerning their dynamic turnover. The investigation of their contributions in metabolic processes asks for the development of, in vivo and in vitro, real time analytical detection. In this work the design, synthesis and evaluation of a set of new fluorescent chemosen- sors is presented, since inositol polyphosphates and polyP are lacking an intrinsic chro- mophore. The synthesized chemosensors can be divided into the following three cate- gories - Pyrene-excimer based, disassembly approach and DAPI derivatives. A 4’,6-diamidin-2-phenylindol (DAPI) synthesis was developed in this work. The photo- physical properties of the respective set of synthesized chemosensors in combination with the above mentioned phosphorylated metabolites was evaluated. Fe3+-Salen and PyDPA was successfully used as a polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) stain and the latter dye was applied as a post-column staining reagent for Ins(1,2,3,4,5,6)-hexakisphosphate (InsP6) on an ion chromatography system. In addition, the investigation and appli- cation of a new 31P-NMR based method using a chiral solvating agent revealed the stereoselectivity of the first described naturally occurring 1-phytase.

  • Development of Fluorescent Ligands for A1 Adenosine Receptor And
    Development of fluorescent ligands for A1 adenosine receptor and cannabinoid receptors A dissertation submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the University of Otago, Dunedin, New Zealand Sameek Singh July 2018 Abstract Adenosine A1 receptor (A1AR), cannabinoid type 1 receptor (CB1R) and cannabinoid type 2 receptor (CB2R) are class A G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) and play important roles in human pathophysiological conditions such as cardiovascular, neurological, metabolic and immunological disorders. Fluorescent ligands are powerful tools to investigate processes such as receptor expression, localisation, trafficking and receptor-protein interactions in the native cell environment. Fluorescent ligands can also be used as tracers in pharmacological assays, instead of the commonly used radioligands that carry inherent safety risks. The development of fluorescent ligands with high affinity, selectivity and suitable imaging properties for A1AR, CB1R and CB2R would greatly contribute to an increased understanding of receptor biology and thus facilitate the drug development process. Development of fluorescent ligands with sufficient polarity for cannabinoid receptors (CBRs), which have lipid-based endogenous ligands, is an especially challenging task. This thesis describes the development of small molecule- based fluorescent ligands for A1AR, CB1R and CB2R, via attachment of a linker and fluorophore to a ligand. (Benzimidazolyl)isoquinolinols, analogues of previously reported high affinity A1AR (benzimidazolyl)isoquinolines, were explored in chapter 2 for the development of A1AR fluorescent ligands. A procedure for 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-1,4-benzoquinone (DDQ) mediated aromatisation of tetrahydroisoquinolines and multistep synthesis for the preparation of (benzimidazolyl)isoquinolinols was developed. Based on the previously reported structure–activity relationship (SAR), linkers (and linker plus fluorophore conjugates) were introduced in the C-6 or C-7 position of (benzimidazolyl)isoquinolinols.

  • A Comprehensive Review of the Covalent Immobilization of Biomolecules Onto Electrospun Nanofibers
    nanomaterials Review A Comprehensive Review of the Covalent Immobilization of Biomolecules onto Electrospun Nanofibers Soshana Smith 1,* , Katarina Goodge 1 , Michael Delaney 2, Ariel Struzyk 2, Nicole Tansey 1 and Margaret Frey 1 1 Department of Fiber Science and Apparel Design, Cornell University, Ithaca, NY 14853, USA; [email protected] (K.G.); [email protected] (N.T.); [email protected] (M.F.) 2 Robert Frederick Smith School of Chemical & Biomolecular Engineering, Cornell University, Ithaca, NY 14853, USA; [email protected] (M.D.); [email protected] (A.S.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 7 October 2020; Accepted: 21 October 2020; Published: 27 October 2020 Abstract: Biomolecule immobilization has attracted the attention of various fields such as fine chemistry and biomedicine for their use in several applications such as wastewater, immunosensors, biofuels, et cetera. The performance of immobilized biomolecules depends on the substrate and the immobilization method utilized. Electrospun nanofibers act as an excellent substrate for immobilization due to their large surface area to volume ratio and interconnectivity. While biomolecules can be immobilized using adsorption and encapsulation, covalent immobilization offers a way to permanently fix the material to the fiber surface resulting in high efficiency, good specificity, and excellent stability. This review aims to highlight the various covalent immobilization techniques being utilized and their benefits and drawbacks. These methods typically fall into two categories: (1) direct immobilization and (2) use of crosslinkers. Direct immobilization techniques are usually simple and utilize the strong electrophilic functional groups on the nanofiber. While crosslinkers are used as an intermediary between the nanofiber substrate and the biomolecule, with some crosslinkers being present in the final product and others simply facilitating the reactions.
