摘要: A homochrial manganese(III) complex (1) derived from chiral salen ligand (1R,2R)-(-)-1,2-diphenylethane-1,2-diamine-N,N΄-bicarboxyl-salicylidene) has been synthesized through solvothermal procedure and characterized by IR, elemental analysis, TGA, circular dichroism (CD), powder and single-crystal X-ray crystallography. It crystallizes in orthorhombic, space group P212121 with a = 9.108(3), b = 16.431(5), c = 26.531(6) Å, V = 3970.4(19) Å3, Z = 4, Dc = 1.248 g/cm3, F(000) = 1568, Mr = 745.73, μ = 0.383 mm-1, the final GOOF = 0.957, R = 0.0631 and wR = 0.1079 for 13250 observed reflections with I > 2σ(I). The coordination polymer 1 possesses a 1D infinite zigzag chain architecture constructed by the dicarboxyl-functionalized metallosalen ligand (Mn-salen), and the polymeric chains are further assembled into a 3D supramolecular network structure via strong intermolecular hydrogen bonding interactions between adjacent zigzag chains. As a heterogeneous catalyst, 1 was used as an efficient heterogeneous catalyst for the asymmetric olefin epoxidation.

摘要: With the aim of broadening the versatility of lentiviral vectors as a tool in nucleic acid research, we expanded the genetic code in the propagation of lentiviral vectors for site-specific incorporation of chemical moieties with unique properties. Through systematic exploration of the structure-function relationship of lentiviral VSVg envelope by site-specific mutagenesis and incorporation of residues displaying azide- and diazirine-moieties, the modifiable sites on the vector surface were identified, with most at the PH domain that neither affects the expression of envelope protein nor propagation or infectivity of the progeny virus. Furthermore, via the incorporation of such chemical moieties, a variety of fluorescence probes, ligands, PEG and other functional molecules are conjugated, orthogonally and stoichiometrically, to the lentiviral vector. Using this methodology, a facile platform is established that is useful for tracking virus movement, targeting gene delivery and detecting virus-host interactions. This study may provide a new direction for rational design of lentiviral vectors, with significant impact on both basic research and therapeutic applications.
