The platinum (II) complexes of the [Pt (N4,N7-Ribavirin) (DMSO) Cl], [Pt (N4,N7-De-oxyribavirin) (DMSO) Cl] were obtained by the reactions of cis-[Pt (DMSO)2 Cl2] and K[Pt (DMSO) Cl3] with 1-??-D-ribofuranosyl-1,2,4-triazole-3-carboxamide (Ribavirin) and its deoxy-analogue (deoxyribavirin). The preparation of 1-(2'-deoxy-?-D-ribofuranosyl) -1,2,4-triazole-3-carboxamide was also performed through a four-step procedure, protection of 3', 5'-dihydroxyl group of Ribavirin with 1,3-dichloro-1,1,3,3-tetraisopropyldisiloxane (TPDS-Cl), phenoxythio-carbonylation of the 2'-hydroxyl group of 3', 5'-O-TPDS-Ribavirin with phenoxythiocarbonyl-chloride (PTC-Cl), reduction of 2′-O-phenoxythiocarbonyl ester of 3', 5'-O-TPDS-Ribavirin with tri-n-butyltin hydride and AIBN, deprotection of 3', 5'-O-TPDS-Ribavirin with tetrabutylammon-ium fluoride in THF.

THE CHIRAL SELECTIVITY IN ACROSS－MEMBRANE TRANSPORT OF 1，2－DIAMINOCYCLOHEXANE PLATINUM（II）COMPLEXES AND THE CONTRIBUTION OF LEAVING GROUPS

The uptake kinetics of platinum(II)complexes of 1,2 -diaminocyclohexane(dach)isomers(1R,2R-dach, 1R,2S-dach. 1S,2S-dach) with various leaving groups, Chloride(CI), oxalate (OX),squaric acid(SA), and demethylcantharic acid (DA) was studied in the plasma isotonic buffer. The experimentalresults show that across-membrane transport of all the platinum complexes studied follows a firstorder Kinetic process and a passive diffustion mechanism. The uptake rate constants of these platinum(II)complexes decrease in the following sequence with the k value(h-1):CI>SA>OX>DA. It isnoteworthy that the k values of the platinum(II)complexes with same leaving group reduce as: 1R,2R-dach>1R,2S-dach>1S,2S-dach. Based on these results, it is firstly suggested that the erythocytemembrane recognizes the chirality of these platinum complexes.

Spectroscopic and molecular structure characterization of the bis(2-aminophenol)(5, 10, 15, 20-tetraphenylporphyrinato) cobalt(II) complex

The reaction of the cobalt(II) meso-tetraphenylporphyrin (TPP) starting material with an excess of 2-aminophenol (Hon) in organic solvents, yields the cobalt(II) porphyrin species [CoII(TPP)(Hon)2] (1). This compound has been characterized by UV-vis., IR, MSI MS and 1H NMR spectroscopy. The UV-vis data and especially the proton NMR results, for the isolated product, indicated that complex 1 is a Co(II) mesoporphyrin derivative.The X-ray molecular structure of the title compound bis(2-aminophenol) (tetraphenylporphyrinato) cobalt(II) has been determined. This structure is the first one reported of a metalloporphyrin with a 2-aminophenol axial ligand species. The central metal is hexacoordinated by the four nitrogen atoms of the pyrrole rings and the nitrogen atoms of the two Hon trans axial ligands.

Magnetic analyses of isosceles tricobalt(II) complexes containing two types of octahedral high-spin cobalt(II) ions

The observed magnetic data for two isosceles tricobalt(II) complexes have been successfully analyzed, considering the axial distortion around each cobalt(II) ion, the local spin-orbit coupling, the anisotropic exchange interactions, and the intermolecular exchange interactions. The complexes each contains two types of octahedral high-spin cobalt(II) ions (CoA and CoB) in the shape of an isosceles triangle (CoA1–CoB–CoA2), and the contribution of the orbital angular momentum is significant. The exchange interaction between the CoA and CoB ions is practically negligible (J = ~ 0), whereas the interaction between the CoA1 and CoA2 ions is ferromagnetic (J’ > 0) for both complexes.

Kinetic parameters and thermal decomposition for Novel 1,1-Malonyl-bis(4-p-Chlorophenylthiosemicarbazide) and Cu(II), Co(II), Zn(II) and Sn(II) complexes(H₄pClMaTS) synthesized by electrochemical method

Anodic oxidation of Co, Cu, Zn, and Sn metals in an acetone solution of 1,1-malonayl-bis(4-p- Chlorophenylthiosemicarbazide) yields complexes of composition with general formula [Co2(pClMaTS)(H2O)6]·2H2O, [Cu2(pClMaTS)(H2O)6], [Zn2(pClMaTS)(H2O)6] and [Sn2(pClMaTS)(H2O)6]·2H2O. Chelation was investigated based on elemental analysis, conductivity, magnetic moment, spectral (UV-Vis, IR, Raman, 1HNMR, mass), thermal, and ESR studies. The Raman and infrared spectral studies suggests the tridentate behavior of the ligand from each tail. Since the ligand has two thiose- micarbazide groups, it may acts in an SNO tridentate fashion from each side with one of the two metal ions forming a polynuclear complex coordinating through both of the lone pair of electrons the enolic oxygen of the carbonyl group (C=O), the azomethine nitrogen (C=N) and the thioenol form of the thiocarbonyl group (C=S). The differential thermogravimetric analysis (DTG) curves were used to study the decomposition steps of the isolated complexes using Horowitz-Metzger (HM) and Coats-Redfern (CR) methods. The kinetic thermodynamic parameters such as: E*, ΔH*, ΔS*and ΔG* are calculated from the DTG curves.

α-Glucosidase Inhibition by New Schiff Base Complexes of Zn(II)

There are many reports that divalent alkaline earth, first-row transition metals, and Zn(II) ions have α-glucosidase inhibitory effects. Cu(II) and Zn(II) ions, in particular, have strong α-glucosidase inhibitory effects. Several Schiff bases also display α-glucosidase inhibitory effects. In this study, we focused on safe and highly effective complexes including Zn(II) ion. We prepared and characterized the Zn(II) complexes with four different Schiff bases (N-salicylidene-β-alanine (N-sβ), N-N’-bis (salicylidene) ethylenediamine (N-bsE), N, N’-bis (salicylidene)-phenylenediamine (N-bsP), and 1-[(2-dimethylaminoethylimino) methyl]naphtholate (DMN)) and investigated their α-glucosidase inhibitory effects in vitro, using α-glycosidases from Saccharomyces sp. and rat small intestine, and in vivo, using a sucrose tolerance test. The Zn(II) complexes with DMN showed the highest in vitro and in vivo α-glucosidase inhibitory effects in this study.

Theoretical Studies on Structures and Spectroscopic Properties of Highly Efficient Phosphorescent [Ru（terpy）（phen）X]＋ Complexes

The ground and the lowest-lying triplet excited state geometries, electronic structures, and spectroscopic properties of three mixed-ligand Ru（II） complexes [Ru（terpy）（phen）X]＋ （terpy=2,2＇,6＇,2″-terpyridine, phen=l,10-phenanthroline, and X=-C-=CH （1）, X=Cl （2）, X-CN （3）） were investigated theoretically using the density functional theory method. The ground and excited state geometries have been fully optimized at the B3LYP/LanL2DZ and UB3LYP/LanL2DZ levels, respectively. The absorption and emission spectra of the com- plexes in CHaCN solutions were calculated by time-dependent density functional theory with the PCM solvent model. The calculated bond lengths of Ru-C, Ru-N, and Ru-Cl in the ground state agree well with the corresponding experimental results. The highest occupied molecular orbital were dominantly localized on the Ru atom and monodentate X ligand for 1 and 2, Ru atom and terpy ligand for a, while the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital were π＊（terpy） type orbital. Therefore, the lowest-energy absorptions of 1 and 2 at 688 and 631 nln are attributed to a dyz （Ru）＋Tr/p（X）--π＊ （terpy） transition with MLCT/XLCT （metal-to-ligand charge transfer/X ligand to terpy ligand charge transfer） character, whereas that of 3 at 529 nm is related to a dyz （Ru）＋π（terpy）-π＊ （terpy） transition with MLCT and ILCT transition character. The calculated phosphorescence of three complexes at 1011 nm （1）, 913 nm （2）, and 838 nm （3） have similar transition properties to that of the lowest-lying absorption. It is shown that the lowest lying absorptions and emissions transition character of these Ru（II） complexes can be tuned by changing the electron-withdrawing ability of the monodentate ligand.

Interactions Between Anticancer Pt(II) complexes and Human Erythrocyte Spectrin *

The interactions between human erythrocyte spectrin(SP) and Pt(II) complexes with different composition and configuration were studied by fluorescence and circular dichroism spectra. The results showed that there are 4.7×10 2 binding sites of cisplatin(CDDP) in a spectrin tetramer(SPT). Among them, about 70 sites with apparent binding constant K 1】3.47×10 6 were of highest affinity, 1.8×10 2 sites with K 2 = 3.47×10 6 were of high affinity, and other 2.2×10 2 sites with K 3 = 8.77×10 5 were of low affinity. The conformation change of spectrin, depending on the concentration of Pt(II) complex and molar ratio(R) of Pt(II) complex to spectrin, was induced by the binding of Pt(II) complexes. It indicated that the interaction of both CDDP and cis diaquodiamine platinum(DADP) with SP followed a two step first order kinetic process in the first stage (1 h), and the kinetic constants were determined. In the second stage, the induced conformation change, polymerization and depolymerization of SP were probably involved. It was noticed that in the reaction of SP and Pt(II) complexes with 1,2 cyclohexanediammine isomers as chiral carrier ligand, stereo matching played a more important role than the affinity of Pt(II) to thiol groups of SP.

面向实时操作系统μC/OS-II的两级优先调度算法

C/OS-II采用抢占式优先级调度算法,根据任务的重要程度分配不同的优先级,以确保系统的实时性。但μC/OSII不允许多个任务具有相同优先级,不仅限制了并发任务的数量和灵活性,而且在某些情况下会增加系统的复杂度,甚至可能给系统的运行造成安全隐患。本文通过改进μC/OS-II的优先级位图结构与调度算法,为μC/OS-II扩展了2级优先调度机制。改进后的系统允许用户为多个任务赋予相同的优先级,同一优先级下的任务按照二级优先级进行调度,且可以根据实际需要灵活选择二级调度策略。实验表明,该算法可有效提高μC/OS-II的并发能力和资源利用率,同时保持较低的系统开销和响应时间。

Elimination of GGTA1,CMAH,β4GalNT2 and CIITA genes in pigs compromises human versus pig xenogeneic immune reactions

Background:Pig organ xenotransplantation is a potential solution for the severe organ shortage in clinic,while immunogenic genes need to be eliminated to improve the immune compatibility between humans and pigs.Current knockout strategies are mainly aimed at the genes causing hyperacute immune rejection(HAR)that occurs in the first few hours while adaptive immune reactions orchestrated by CD4 T cell thereafter also cause graft failure,in which process the MHCⅡmolecule plays critical roles.Methods:Thus,we generate a 4-gene(GGTA1,CMAH,β4GalNT2,and CIITA)knockout pig by CRISPR/Cas9 and somatic cell nuclear transfer to compromise HAR and CD4 T cell reactions simultaneously.Results:We successfully obtained 4KO piglets with deficiency in all alleles of genes,and at cellular and tissue levels.Additionally,the safety of our animals after gene editing was verified by using whole-genome sequencing and karyotyping.Piglets have survived for more than one year in the barrier,and also survived for more than 3 months in the conventional environment,suggesting that the piglets without MHCⅡcan be raised in the barrier and then gradually mated in the conventional environment.Conclusions:4KO piglets have lower immunogenicity,are safe in genomic level,and are easier to breed than the model with both MHCⅠandⅡdeletion.
