V = 1096.7(7) 3, Z = 2, Dc = 1.323 g/cm3, F(000) = 456 and m(MoKa) = 0.198 mm-1. The final R and wR are 0.0627 and 0.1285, respectively for 1737 observed reflections with I > 2s(I). S = 0.921 and (/s)max = 0.001. The cyclobutane ring has a puckered conformation with four different aryl groups substituted on each carbon atom. The dihedral angles of the cyclobutane ring are 20.2 and 20.6? The bond distances of the cyclobutane ring are 1.541, 1.555, 1.560 and 1.563 ? respectively, which are slightly longer than that of the normal CC single bond. The title compound is the only cross-dimer and its two heteroaryl groups are situated at the trans-1,3 position of the cyclobutane ring, revealing that the cross-photodimerization proceeds in a head-to-tail pattern with high stereo-selectivity.展开更多

CuDPO crystallizes in monoclinic, space group P21/n, with a = 11.243(5), b = 16.070(8), c = 19.872(9) A, β = 95.678(10)°, Z = 4, V= 3573(3) A3, C35.50H28.50Cl3CuN2.50O2, Mr = 692.00, Dc = 1.287 g/cm3, p = 0.868 mm^-1, F(000) = 1420, S = 1.089, (△/σ)max = 0.069, the final R = 0.0682 and wR = 0.1749. CoDPO is of monoclinie, space group P21/n, with a = 11.396(4), b = 15.151(5), c = 17.673(6) A, β = 90.528(6)°, Z = 4, V = 3051.4(17) A3, C34H26Cl2CoN2O2, Mr = 624.40, Dc = 1.359 g/cm3, μ = 0.770 mm^-1, F(000) = 1284, S = 0.981, (△/σ)max = 0.001, the final R = 0.0471 and wR = 0.0961. In each case, the metal cation is coordinated by two C1 anions and two N atoms from oxazole ring of the ligands, which leads to the formation of a one-dimensional polymeric structure. It is found that the cyclobutane ring of coordinated DPO adopts a distorted conformation in the crystal, which is attributed to the increased steric effect between adjacent aryl substituents for the coordination of oxazole ring to metal cation. Thermal gravimetric analysis of the two complexes was also observed.展开更多

Post-translational modifications result in additional fluorescent products (e.g. DOPA, dityrosine, and advanced glycation end products (AGE)). UV radiation can cause longer wavelength fluorescent oxidative bands. These alterations can assess the extent of photolysis. We describe the ground- and excited-state oxidative transformations of newly-purchased type I calf skin collagens (samples #092014 and #072012) and a 7-year-old sample (#072005). We compare the effects of UV radiation (mainly 254 nm) and age on the photochemical reaction kinetics and fluorescence spectral distribution of type I calf skin collagen at pH 7.4. The fluorescence spectra of samples #072012 and #092014 were similar but not identical to pure tyrosine, whereas #072005 indicated significant “dark” oxidation at the expense of tyrosine. Fading of oxidized product(s) at 270/360 nm is second-order. Build-up of 325/400 nm (dityrosine) fluorescence is linear with time. Rate parameters r2 and r1 were respectively proportional to second order disappearance of ground state oxidation products and the quasi–first-order photochemical formation of dityrosine. There is a reciprocal relationship between the rates of decrease in the 270/360 nm fluorescence and concomitant increase in 325/400 nm fluorescence. Their relative rates depend on the age of the collagen sample. There is a reciprocal relationship between r1 and r2. This relationship results because both ground state autoxidation and excited state photo-dimerization proceed via a common tyrosyl radical intermediate. Water of hydration appears to play a role in generating tyrosyl radical.展开更多

Roughly divided into two groups, these are 1) the main fibrous ECM proteins: collagens, elastins, fibronectins and laminins. 2) Classification of proteoglycans (PGs) is based on their location and binding. Although many different molecular interactions are possible, they depend on the cells’ condition (i.e. “Normal”, Aged, Wounded/Fibrotic, and cancerous). There is little or no data that addresses the influence of the surrounding ECM on dityrosine formation. As a simpler model, we have replaced total PG with hyaluronan (HA) and have used purified calf-skin collagen tyrosine, which forms dityrosine (A2) under 254 nm UV in buffered solution and (near) physiological temperatures. Our results reveal a complicated temperature dependence involving factors relating to collagen HA structure, and collagen’s photochemical activation parameters.展开更多

The photodimer r-1, c-2, t-3, t-4-tetra [2-(S-phenyloxazolyl) ] cyclobutane (TPOCB) was synthesized and its crystal structure was determined by X-ray diffraction method. The crystal is monoclinic. The space group is C2/c, with 0 = 2.2289(4), b=0.5406(2), c=2.631 7(7) nm, β=99.38(2)°, Z=4. The molecular cell of TPOCB is centrosymmetric. The dihedral angle between benzene and oxazole ring planes is similar to that of POEOP. It was also found that the photodimerization of POEOP and the photolysis of TPOCB is reversible, increasing the concentration of POEOP is advantageous to photodimerization. In contrast, decreasing the concentration of POEOP is advantageous to photolysis of TPOCB.展开更多

文摘Mammalian collagens exhibit weak intrinsic UV fluorescence that depends on the age and previous history of the sample. Post-translational modifications result in additional fluorescent products (e.g. DOPA, dityrosine, and advanced glycation end products (AGE)). UV radiation can cause longer wavelength fluorescent oxidative bands. These alterations can assess the extent of photolysis. We describe the ground- and excited-state oxidative transformations of newly-purchased type I calf skin collagens (samples #092014 and #072012) and a 7-year-old sample (#072005). We compare the effects of UV radiation (mainly 254 nm) and age on the photochemical reaction kinetics and fluorescence spectral distribution of type I calf skin collagen at pH 7.4. The fluorescence spectra of samples #072012 and #092014 were similar but not identical to pure tyrosine, whereas #072005 indicated significant “dark” oxidation at the expense of tyrosine. Fading of oxidized product(s) at 270/360 nm is second-order. Build-up of 325/400 nm (dityrosine) fluorescence is linear with time. Rate parameters r2 and r1 were respectively proportional to second order disappearance of ground state oxidation products and the quasi–first-order photochemical formation of dityrosine. There is a reciprocal relationship between the rates of decrease in the 270/360 nm fluorescence and concomitant increase in 325/400 nm fluorescence. Their relative rates depend on the age of the collagen sample. There is a reciprocal relationship between r1 and r2. This relationship results because both ground state autoxidation and excited state photo-dimerization proceed via a common tyrosyl radical intermediate. Water of hydration appears to play a role in generating tyrosyl radical.
文摘The extracellular matrix (ECM) is the non-cellular component present within all tissues and organs, providing not only essential physical scaffolding for the cellular constituents and initiating crucial biochemical and biomechanical cues, required for tissue morphogenesis, differentiation and homeostasis. Roughly divided into two groups, these are 1) the main fibrous ECM proteins: collagens, elastins, fibronectins and laminins. 2) Classification of proteoglycans (PGs) is based on their location and binding. Although many different molecular interactions are possible, they depend on the cells’ condition (i.e. “Normal”, Aged, Wounded/Fibrotic, and cancerous). There is little or no data that addresses the influence of the surrounding ECM on dityrosine formation. As a simpler model, we have replaced total PG with hyaluronan (HA) and have used purified calf-skin collagen tyrosine, which forms dityrosine (A2) under 254 nm UV in buffered solution and (near) physiological temperatures. Our results reveal a complicated temperature dependence involving factors relating to collagen HA structure, and collagen’s photochemical activation parameters.

文摘Design and construction of suitable pore microenvironments for selective catalytic reactions of small guest molecules is a major goal for chemists.Herein,we report control of competitive E–Z photoisomerization and photodimerization within porous metal–organic frameworks(MOFs)by fine-tuning the pore microenvironments using different dicarboxylate linkers.MOFs with small pores((E)-X_(MOF_(1))and(E)-X_(MOF_(1))′)favor the photoinduced E–Z isomerization of one encapsulated diaryl alkene substrate while those with large pores(((E)-X)_(2MOF_(2)))prefer the photodimerization of two encapsulated alkene substrates.Both reactions show broad functional group compatibility and proceed stereospecifically in good yields under mild conditions.High local concentration of diaryl alkene ligands and their preorientation within pores facilitate stereoselective dimerization.This pore engineering strategy is applicable to control and create pore microenvironemnts for other photoinduced organic reactions within porous MOFs.

文摘Novel linear supramolecular polymers were successfully constructed by self-assemblies of coumarinbridged bifunctional UPy derivative.Benefitting from the photodimerization ability of the coumarin moieties,the linear supramolecular polymers could form the large three-dimensional polymer networks upon UV light irradiation via photo-cross-linking,which provides a viable and alternative procedure to modulate the properties of supramolecular polymers.

文摘It was found that the main reason why trans-1, 2-bis [2-(5-phenyloxazolyl) ] ethene (POEOP) has low laser conversion efficiency is that POEOP photodimerized easily with high stereoselectivity. The photodimer r-1, c-2, t-3, t-4-tetra [2-(S-phenyloxazolyl) ] cyclobutane (TPOCB) was synthesized and its crystal structure was determined by X-ray diffraction method. The crystal is monoclinic. The space group is C2/c, with 0 = 2.2289(4), b=0.5406(2), c=2.631 7(7) nm, β=99.38(2)°, Z=4. The molecular cell of TPOCB is centrosymmetric. The dihedral angle between benzene and oxazole ring planes is similar to that of POEOP. It was also found that the photodimerization of POEOP and the photolysis of TPOCB is reversible, increasing the concentration of POEOP is advantageous to photodimerization. In contrast, decreasing the concentration of POEOP is advantageous to photolysis of TPOCB.
