INFLUENCE OF MEMBRANE-COMPONENTS ON THE STABILITY AND DRUG-RELEASE PROPERTIES OF REVERSE-PHASE EVAPORATION VESICLES (REVS) - LIGHT-SENSITIVE ALL-TRANS RETINAL, NEGATIVELY CHARGED PHOSPHOLIPID DICETYLPHOSPHATE AND CHOLESTEROL

1995-11-01
Incorporation of a negatively charged phospholipid, dicetylphosphate, initially increased encapsulation efficiency (from 12 to 24%) but beyond 5% (molar) a detrimental effect was observed. Rate of drug release from REVs was, for most cases, found to be bi-phasic implying partitioning between the lipid bilayer and the aqueous compartment. It was not possible to prepare liposomes with more than 1% (molar) all-trans retinal (ATR) as a membrane component. When ATR was reduced to 0.5% (molar), encapsulation efficiency increased to 7.76%. Upon exposure to long wave UV (365 nm), release from ATR containing REVs was increased and this was attributed to the formation of 13-cis isomer as indicated by HPLC and UV spectroscopy data.

Influence of heteroatoms on the extent of double bond pyramidalization
Can, H; Zahn, D; Balcı, Metin; Brickmann, M (Wiley, 2003-03-01)
The origin of double bond pyramidalization in the series of norbornene and norbornadiene derivatives and the effect of heteroatoms on the magnitude of the double bond bending are reported. For this purpose, equilibrium geometries, vibrational frequencies, and NBO second-order perturbation energies were calculated by use of B3LYP/6-31G** level wave functions. The optimized geometric parameters calculated for norbornadiene are in good agreement with the available experimental results. NBO second-order perturb...
Carboligation reactions with benzaldehyde lyase immobilized on superparamagnetic solid support
Sopaci, S. Betuel; Turan, Ilke Simsek; Tural, Bilsen; Volkan, Mürvet; Demir, Ayhan Sıtkı (Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC), 2009-01-01)
Histidine-tagged recombinant benzaldehyde lyase (BAL, EC 4.1.2.38) was efficiently immobilized to surface-modified magnetic particles with affinity ligand binding. In addition to conventional benzoin condensation reactions, two important representative BAL-catalyzed carboligation reactions, were also performed with this magnetically responsive biocatalyst. The results obtained from the carboligation reactions that were performed with this simple and convenient heterogenous biocatalyst were comparable to tha...
Reaction of Metal-Carbene Complexes with Cyclobutenediones: The First General C-C Bond Insertion Reaction for Fischer Carbene Complexes
Zora, Metin (American Chemical Society (ACS), 1993-01-01)
Alkylcarbene-chromium complexes react with cyclobutenediones to give 2-alkoxy-4-cyclopentene-1,3-diones in moderate yield, accompanied by varying amounts of 4-cyclopentene-1,3-dione derivatives which result from reduction of the initial product by the chromium byproduct. The reaction is general for a variety of cyclobutenedione derivatives with alkoxy, alkyl, or aryl substituents. The major products of the reaction between arylcarbene complexes and cyclobutenediones are 5-alkylidenefuranone derivatives. A m...
Regioselective Synthesis of Benzo[h][1,6]- naphthyridines and Chromenopyrazinones through Alkyne Cyclization
Hoplamaz, Emre; KESKİN, SELBİ; Balcı, Metin (Wiley, 2017-03-17)
A regioselective approach to the synthesis of benzo[h][1,6]-naphthyridine and chromenopyrazinone derivatives was developed. The synthetic route to benzo[h][1,6]naphthyridines involves the N-propargylation of aromatic aminobenzaldehydes, followed by reaction with propargylamine in the presence of DBU (1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0] undec-7ene). For the synthesis of chromenopyrazine and chromeno-pyrazinone derivatives, the acetonitrile group was introduced to salicylaldehyde derivatives, and a DBU-promoted cyclizati...
Effect of molecular and electronic structure on the light-harvesting properties of dye sensitizers
Mete, E.; Üner, Deniz; Cakmak, M.; Gulseren, O.; Ellialtoglu, S. (American Chemical Society (ACS), 2007-05-24)
The systematic trends in structural and electronic properties of perylenediimide (PDI)-derived dye molecules have been investigated by DFT calculations based on the projector-augmented wave (PAW) method including gradient-corrected exchange-correlation effects. Time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) calculations have been performed to study the visible absorbance activity of these complexes. The effect of different ligands and halogen atoms attached to PDI were studied to characterize the light-ha...
