Equilibrium tautomeric mixtures of several mono- and disaccharides are obtained in anhydrous form, without the use of water, by reacting the commercially available reducing sugars with ammonia gas in dry methanol, followed by the concentration of the resultant solution to dryness. Mutarotation and hydrolysis of the initially formed glycosylamine in the resultant medium account for the transformation. Equilibrium anomeric mixtures enriched in the beta-form of commercially available sugars such as alpha-D-glucose and alpha-lactose have not only vastly increased solubility, but are also synthetically valuable as these can be readily converted to the methyl/benzyl/trimethylsilyl ether and other derivatives for further transformations. 相似文献

Melanin isolated from the ink sac of Sepia officinalis (Sepia melanin) has been proposed as a standard for natural eumelanin, and a standard mild isolation and purification protocol for Sepia melanin has been developed (Zeise, doctoral dissertation, Johns Hopkins University, 1991). The goal of the present work, developed using Sepia melanin, was to quantify the bioavailable carboxylic acid groups present in melanin particles. Bioavailability is governed by the accessibility of carboxy groups to the surrounding biological milieu, and is expressed as microequivalents of carboxy group per gram of melanin. The present work was carried out using an heterogeneous slurry of melanin in a nonaqueous system. A standard acidic titrant, and an automatic titrator operating in an equilibrium titration mode were used to characterize and quantify the carboxy group content of Sepia melanins and several other commonly used melanins purified by a standard method (Zeise et al., Pigment Cell Res. [Suppl] 2:48–53, 1992). 相似文献

In frost-hardy and partially dehardened leaves of Brassica oleracea L. var. sabellica L. the distribution of cryoprotective sugars and of chloride between chloroplasts and the nonchloroplast part of leaf cells was investigated using the nonaqueous isolation technique as a means of cell fractionation. In chloroplasts of frost-hardy leaves high concentrations of sucrose and raffinose and comparatively low concentrations of chloride have been found. The ratios between sugars and chloride were so as to ascertain complete protection of the frost-sensitive thylakoid membranes during freezing. During dehardening, sugars decreased especially in the chloroplasts. There was a conversion of sucrose and raffinose into monosaccharides. This led to a large increase in the concentration of glucose and fructose in the nonchloroplast parts of the cells. There is evidence that the sugar concentration in the vacuole increased at the expense of sugars located in chloroplasts and cytoplasm. The quantity of sugars that remained in the chloroplasts did not appear to be sufficient for complete membrane protection at very low freezing temperatures. 相似文献

Comparative studies of enzymatic synthesis of glucose esters under ultrasound and shaking were carried out in nonaqueous media. The influence of solvents, enzymes, chain length of the acyl donors, the power of the ultrasound bath, and intermittent ultrasound on the enzymatic synthesis was investigated. Among the eight solvents selected, pyridine was the most appropriate with alkaline protease from Bacillus subtilis whether under ultrasound or shaking. The acceleration effect of ultrasound with Novozym 435 and the alkaline protease from B. subtilis-catalyzed transesterification increased with the chain length of acyl donors, decreasing from C(10) to C(4). We also investigated the influence of the power (50, 100, and 120 W) of the ultrasound irradiation and the manner of operation (continuous ultrasound, 10 min ultrasound/20 min shaking without ultrasound) on the transesterification. The results showed that higher power and continual operational gave the better acceleration. Ultrasound did not change the character and selectivity of the enzyme in the transesterification. 相似文献

Novel dual-functionalized ammonium-based hydrophobic ionic liquids (ILs) have been synthesized by mimicking the water structure to carry both ether group (hydrogen-bond acceptor) and tert-alcohol group (hydrogen-bond donor). These ammonium-type ionic solvents exhibit the advantage of lower viscosities (as low as 129 mPa s at 30 °C) than the imidazolium analogue (∼300 mPa s at 30 °C); more importantly, these “water-like” media are highly compatible with immobilized Candida antarctica lipase B (Novozym 435) in terms of producing high transesterification activities (1.5-fold higher than that in tert-butanol, and slightly higher than that in diisopropyl ether) and higher thermal stability than that in tert-butanol. To demonstrate the utilization of this new solvent system, enzymatic ring-opening polymerization (ROP) of ε-caprolactone using these “water-like” ILs as co-solvents was carried out to synthesize polyesters, achieving high molecular mass Mw (up to 18,000 Da) and high yields (up to 74 %). 相似文献

Rhodococcus opacus strain B-4, which has recently been isolated as an organic solvent-tolerant bacterium, has a high hydrophobicity and exhibits
a high affinity for hydrocarbons. This bacterium was able to survive for at least 5 days in organic solvents, including n-tetradecane, oleyl alcohol, and bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (BEHP), which contained water less than 1% (w/v). The biocatalytic ability of R. opacus B-4 was demonstrated in the essentially nonaqueous BEHP using indigo production from indole as a model conversion. By the
catabolism of oleic acid for NADH regeneration, indigo production increased up to 71.6 μg ml−1 by 24 h. 相似文献

To overcome poor product yields and stability in aqueous solution, we have examined the chloroperoxidase (CPO from Caldariomyces fumago ) catalyzed oxidation of styrene in organic media using tert -butyl hydroperoxide as external oxidant. CPO's intrinsic catalytic activity in tert -butanol, as reflected in its k cat value, was ca. one-fourth of that in aqueous buffer, indicating that the enzyme remains highly active in the organic solvent. Styrene epoxidation reactions were modeled in both aqueous and nonaqueous media to provide global kinetic information, which dominates non-initial rate conditions and is heavily influenced by continuous deactivation of the CPO. Deactivation studies revealed that the enzyme is deactivated quickly by the combination of the tert -butyl hydroperoxide and styrene, possibly due to the styrenic free radicals generated during the enzymatic reaction. These results may enable catalyst-engineering strategies to be initiated to improve the prospects of using CPO in nonaqueous media for large-scale epoxidation reactions. 相似文献

A new spectrophotometric assay has been developed to evaluate protease activity in ionic liquids (ILs). The assay consists of two strategies to enable real-time spectrometric analysis of enzymatic reaction in ILs. First, enzymes are modified with a comb-shaped poly(ethylene glycol), PM13, to obtain a transparent enzyme solution in IL. Second, a chromogenic substrate is used to follow the enzymatic reaction in IL. p-Nitroaniline-derivatized substrates are subjected to protease-catalyzed alcoholysis to release chromogenic p-nitroaniline that can be quantitatively detected by a UV-Vis spectrophotometer. By using this method, we can evaluate protease activity in ILs quite easily without separation of products from the reaction mixture. The availability of the novel assay system was demonstrated in a kinetic analysis of subtilisin-catalyzed reaction in the IL 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide ([Emim][Tf2N]) under different reaction conditions. Because two different serine proteases, subtilisin and α-chymotrypsin, substantially retained its original substrate specificity in the IL, the assay can be extended to other enzymes by using suitable chromogenic substrates. 相似文献
