3-Hydroxypropionic acid (3-HP) is an important platform chemical in organic synthesis. Traditionally, 3-HP was produced by chemical methods and fermentation process. In this work, a novel enzymatic method was developed for green synthesis of 3-HP. A yeast strain harboring nitrile-hydrolyzing enzyme was newly isolated from environmental samples using 3-hydroxypropionitrile (3-HPN) as the sole nitrogen source. It was identified to be Meyerozyma guilliermondii CGMCC12935 by sequencing of the 18S ribosomal DNA and internal transcribed spacer, together with analysis of the morphology characteristics. The catalytic properties of M. guilliermondii CGMCC12935 resting cells were determined, and the optimum activity was achieved at 55 °C and pH 7.5. The enzyme showed broad substrate specificity towards nitriles, especially 3-HPN, aminoacetonitrile and 3-cyanopyridine. The presence of Ag + , Pb 2+ and excess substrate inhibited the enzyme activity, whereas 5% (v/v) ethyl acetate had a positive effect on the enzyme activity. M. guilliermondii CGMCC12935 resting cells by addition of 3% glucose could thoroughly hydrolyze 500 mM 3-HPN into 3-HP within 100 h and the maximal accumulative production of 3-HP reached 216.33 mM, which was over twofolds than the control group with no additional glucose. And this work would lay the foundation for biological production of 3-HP in industry.

N,N′-Bis(3-pyridyl)methanediamine was prepared by treating 3-aminopyridine with formaldehyde in acetonitrile. By treating it with formaldehyde, the eight-membered heterocyclic ring compound 1,3,5,7-tetra(3-pyridyl)-1,3,5,7-tetrazacyclooctane was prepared. This could occur in a two-step manner in a [3+1+3+1] cycloaddition reaction. The compounds were characterized by X-ray crystallography, 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy, and mass spectrometry. The powder XRD pattern of 1,3,5,7-tetra(3-pyridyl)-1,3,5,7-tetrazacyclooctane was also determined and revealed an uncommon twist-crown conformation, which was further confirmed by DFT calculations.

As an environmentally friendly energetic group, the azide group can not only control the melting point but also increase the energy of the compound. Therefore, the design and synthesis of energetic compounds with azido groups have long been a focus of research in the field of energetic materials. 3-R-4-(5-methyleneazide-1,2,4-oxadiazol-3-yl)furazan energetic materials were synthesized and fully characterized. Using computational chemistry methods, the interactions of some compounds were studied, and the physical and chemical properties of all of compounds were examined. The results show that 3-amino-4-(5-methyleneazide-1,2,4-oxadiazol-3-yl)furazan (2) has a melting point similar to that of TNT and can be a potential carrier for molten-cast explosives. Hydroxylamine salt (4) has an excellent detonation velocity and detonation pressure of 9090 m s−1 and 35.76 GPa, respectively, and its energy is significantly higher than that of RDX, enabling replacement of RDX as a high-energy explosive. Although the detonation performance of compound 4 is slightly lower than that of HMX, its sensitivity is better than that of HMX, which shows that compound 4 still has a high application value. Non-covalent interactions (NCIs) and Hirshfeld surface models indicate that hydrogen bonding and π–π interactions are the key factors that reduce the sensitivity of compounds. Therefore, our results for 3-R-4-(5-methyleneazide-1,2,4-oxadiazol-3-yl)furazan energetic materials suggest that it may be competitive for application in both molten-cast explosives and high-energy explosives.

A highly active and robust catalyst composed of Ru nanoparticles highly dispersed on zeolite H-beta was developed for transforming furfural into 3-acetyl-1-propanol (3-AP) in good yield (81%)under mild conditions (80 °C, 1 MPa H 2 ). Both the support nature and the preparation methods had significant impacts on the dispersion of Ru, eventually on the yield of 3-AP. Ion-exchange method proved best for obtaining the highly active and selective catalyst for this reaction. Moreover, the catalyst can be regenerated easily by calcination and reduction. This catalyst was further explored for the one-pot conversion of xylose and xylan to 3-AP with a yield of 46% and 31%, respectively, thus opening a new feasible pathway from biomass to valuable fine chemicals.

The poly(3-amino-4-hydroxybenzenesulfonic acid)/Ru(bpy) 3 2+ modified glassy carbon electrode (PAHBS/Ru(bpy) 3 2+ /GCE) is a novel solid-state electrochemiluminescence (ECL) sensor. It was prepared by electropolymerization of 3-amino-4-hydroxybenzenesulfonicacid (AHBS) followed by soaking into Ru(bpy) 3 2+ solution. Ru(bpy) 3 2+ was entrapped on the electrode via the electrostatic interactions between sulfonic acid groups and Ru(bpy) 3 2+ cation. The morphology and composition of the modified electrodes were analysed using scanning electron microscope and energy-dispersed spectrum. Cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy were used to compare the electrochemical behavior of the electrodes before and after modification. Under the optimal conditions, the ECL intensity of the quenching value (ΔECL) versus the logarithm of the concentration of malachite green (MG) was linear over a concentration range from 5.0 × 10 -8 to 1.0 × 10 -5 mol L -1 ( r = 0.9931) and the limit of detection (LOD) was 2.5 × 10 -8 mol L -1 . This method has been successfully applied to the determination of MG in pond water.

Chemically modified tetracyclines (CMTs) have been reported to strongly inhibit proliferation and metastasis of various cancers, but their efficacy is restricted by poor water solubility. In the present study, a hydrophilic 4-dedimethylamino sancycline (CMT-3) loaded nanostructured lipid carrier (CMT-3/NLC) was produced by high pressure homogenization (HPH). The physical properties of CMT-3/NLC formulations were characterized by dynamic light scattering (DLS), high efficiency liquid chromatography (HPLC), atomic force microscopy (AFM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), small-angle neutron scattering (SANS), small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) and wide-angle X-ray powder diffraction (XRD). The lipid and surfactant ingredients, as well as drug/lipid concentrations (m/m) were optimized to produce stable and sustained NLC formulations. In vitro cytotoxicity of CMT-3/NLC against HeLa cells was evaluated by MTT assay. The diameter of CMT-3/NLC was found to increase from 153.1 ± 3.0 nm to a maximum of 168.5 ± 2.0 nm after 30 days of storage, while the entrapment efficiency remained constant at >90%. CMT-3/NLC demonstrated a burst-sustained release profile in release media with different pH, a property attributed to the 3-dimensional structure of CMT-3/NLC. Cell uptake and localization studies indicated that NLC reached the cytoplasm and could thereby facilitate CMT-3 entry into HeLa cells.

A sensitive and selective luminescent nanoprobe (referred to as DEPN) is designed for the determination of Cu(II) ions. DEPN shows two emission peaks, one at 602 nm and caused by [Ru(bpy) 3 ] 2+ , the other (peaking at 500 nm) caused by silver nanoclusters (AgNCs). The luminescence of the ruthenium complex is inert and acts as the internal reference signal, while that of the AgNCs is quenched by Cu(II) ions. Under 350 nm photoexcitation, a linear relationship is found between the ratio of emission intensity (I 500 /I 602 ) and the concentration of Cu(II) ions in the 0.1–16 μM range. The detection limit of Cu(II) ions is estimated to be 50 nM. The DEPN was applied to the determination of Cu(II) ions in (spiked) water samples, and to intracellular imaging of Cu(II) in HeLa cells using confocal fluorescence microscopy.
Schematic presentation of a dual-emission photoluminescence nanoprobe for selective Cu 2+ sensing. The emission of the Ag nanoclusters (at 500 nm) is quenched by Cu 2+ , while that of the Ru(bpy) 3
2+ -doped silica nanoparticles (at 602 nm) remains unchanged and serves as a reference.

Cruciferous vegetables (CVs) are globally consumed with some health benefits believed to arise from indole-3-carbinol (I3C), a labile phytochemical liberated from indole glucosinolates, but few reports describe the effect of cooking on I3C reactions. Here, we present heat-promoted direct conversions of I3C in broccoli florets into indole derivatives, which are unique in the N -indolylmethylation and -hydroxymethylation of indole nuclei by 3-methyleneindole and formaldehyde formed in situ from the I3C dehydration and the dimerization of I3C to 3,3′-diindolylmethane (DIM), respectively. Such N -substituted indoles were found in a range of 0.4–4.6 μg per gram of steamed broccoli florets, with a novel compound N -(indol-3-ylmethyl)-3,3′-diindolylmethane (DIM-1) bio-evaluated to inhibit A375 cells with an IC 50 value of 1.87 μM. In aggregation, the investigation discloses the promoting effect of heating on the I3C transformation in CVs and identifies DIM-1 as an anti-cancer drug candidate, and thus updates the knowledge of I3C and bioactive derivatives thereof.

A new series of fused polyheterocyclic aromatic compounds, 7-alkoxybezopyrano[2,3-c]pyrazol-3-one (C-
n
BPP), were synthesised and characterised by infrared, 1H-nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), 13C-NMR and two-dimensional 1H-13C cosy spectra. Their phase transition behaviour was investigated by differential scanning calorimetry and polarising optical microscopy. All of these compounds showed enantiotropic mesophases with temperature domains of 12–60°C and 22–69°C on heating and cooling processes for a carbon number of the alkoxy chain from 2 to 10. The effect of the length of the alkoxy chain on the mesomorphic properties was discussed. Comparison of C-
n
BPP and several kinds of coumarin derivatives indicated that the intermolecular hydrogen bonding acted as the driving force of the mesophase formation.

Formation of 3-monochloropropanediol (3-MCPD) esters from monostearoyl glycerol (MSG) was investigated under high temperature and low moisture conditions. Different organic and inorganic chlorides, including lindane, KCl, CaCl2, NaCl, MgCl2, AlCl3, CuCl2, MnCl2, SnCl2, ZnCl2, and FeCl3, were evaluated for their potential to react with MSG to form 3-MCPD and glycidyl esters at 120 and 240 °C using a UPLC-Q-TOF MS analysis. The results indicated that different chlorine compounds differed in their capacity to react with MSG and formed different products including 3-MCPD mono- and diesters, distearoylglycerol, and glycidyl esters. According to electron spin resonance (ESR) and Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopies, free radical mediated formation mechanisms involving either five-membered or six-membered cyclic acyloxonium free radicals (CAFR) from monoacylglycerol (MAG) were proposed. Tandem quadrupole-time-of-flight (Q-TOF) MS and MS/MS analyses confirmed the free radical mechanisms. In addition, the results from the present study showed that 3-MCPD monoester could be degraded upon thermal treatment and suggested a possible catalytic role of Fe3+ under the experimental conditions.

The oxidative chemical polymerization of 3, 4-ethylenedioxythiophene (EDOT) was conducted at room temperature in the presence of poly(styrene sulfonate) (PSS) as the doping agent, sodium supersulphate (Na 2 S 2 O 8 ) and ferric sulphate(Fe 2 (SO 4 ) 3 ) as the compound oxidant and deionized water as the solvent. In order to remove sodium ion (Na + ), ferric ion (Fe 3+ ), and sulfate ion (SO4 2− ), certain amount of ion exchanger was added after 24 h, the dark blue poly(3, 4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDT)/PSS solution was obtained. The influence of different proportions of EDOT and PSS, different proportions of EDOT and the compound oxidant, different stirring rates on the morphology, and surface resistivity were discussed. The influence of pH value of the PEDT/PSS solution, the coating thickness, and soak time on the surface resistivity was investigated. Recipe and experimental conditions were optimized and the PEDT/PSS solution was obtained with excellent performance which has relatively low in surface resistance, good water tolerance, and light transmittance. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Highly purified LiOH is a common raw material of cathode active materials of lithium-ion batteries. Its demand is rapidly increasing with the fast development of the electric vehicles. The traditional enrichment process of LiOH relying on water evaporation requires a lot of energy. Here, we demonstrate the ability of NASICON-type Li 1.5 Al 0.5 Ge 1.5 (PO 4 ) 3 membrane electrodialysis to enrich the LiOH aqueous solution with a low concentration. This Li 1.5 Al 0.5 Ge 1.5 (PO 4 ) 3 membrane electrodialysis could extract 99.7% and 96.5% of Li + in 0.1, and 0.01 M LiOH feed solution, respectively, into 1 M LiOH receiving solution. And the transmembrane resistance between feed solution and receiving solution increased by 37.4, 389.5, and 964.6 Ω cm 2 , compared to the value for 1 M of LiOH feed solution as the feed solution concentration decreased to 0.1, 0.01 and 0.001 M, respectively. This quantitative assessment method for the resistance variation is crucial to the potential separation application of Li 1.5 Al 0.5 Ge 1.5 (PO 4 ) 3 membrane electrodialysis in salt-lake brine.
