Crystal structure and spectroscopic study of novel two- and three-dimensional photoluminescent Eu(III)-adipate compounds.

Two new photoluminescent compounds with the formulas of [Eu(2)(adipate)(3)(H(2)O)].H(2)O (1) and [Eu(2)(adipate)(3)(4H(2)O)] (2) were synthesized by using Eu(III) chloride and adipic acid under hydrothermal reaction conditions in aqueous solution. Compound 1, a 3-D layered framework, possesses infinite Eu-O-Eu polyhedral chains and self-assembled adipate ligands between Eu-O layers. Compound 2 has dimeric Eu(2)O(16) units interconnected by adipate ligand, resulting in 2-D open frameworks with a cavity among the ligands. Crystal data 1: monoclinic space group C2/c, with a = 14.2486(12) A, b = 8.2733(7) A, c = 39.298(2) A, beta = 99.530(6) degrees, and Z = 8. 2: monoclinic space group P2(1)/c, with a = 11.661(4) A, b = 14.011(3) A, c = 9.013(4) A, beta = 110.87(3) degrees, and Z = 2. The ligand conformations of two Eu(III)-adipate (1 and 2) compounds present anti/anti/anti, gauche/anti/gauche, and intermediate forms. Both compounds 1 and 2 showed strong red luminescence upon excitation, and their luminescence decay involves the multiphonon relaxation mechanism.

Modulatory effects of chitosan adipate on the T and B lymphocyte subsets in mice.

This study examined the subsets of T lymphocytes in the thymus, spleen and mesenteric lymph nodes as well as the subsets of B lymphocytes in the spleen and mesenteric lymph nodes in mice administered chitosan adipate (20 mg/kg) intraperitoneally once or four times at 24 h intervals. The results showed that chitosan adipate decreased the percentage of immature CD4+CD8+ thymic T cells and increased the percentage of mature CD4+ and CD8+ thymocytes. The most significant stimulating effect was observed after four injections. A single exposure to chitosan adipate increased the percentage of CD4+ mesenteric lymph node cells, but four injections of the drug increased the percentage of CD4+ and CD8+ mesenteric lymph node cells. Chitosan adipate had no effect on the subset of splenic T cells. In contrast, chitosan adipate administered either once or four times increased the percentage of CD19+ splenocytes but had no effect on the percentage of CD19+ mesenteric lymph node cells. Overall, chitosan adipate induces the maturation and differentiation of thymocytes, and regulates the number of B splenic cells and lymph node T cells irrespective of the number of doses.

Determination of adipate plasticizers in poly(vinyl chloride) by microwave-assisted extraction.

A new method based on the application of microwave radiation to the extraction of adipate plasticizers from poly(vinyl chloride) PVC plastics is described. The experimental conditions for microwave-assisted extraction (i.e. extracting solvent, temperature, time and microwave power) were evaluated in terms of recovery. The optimisation was carried out with pastes of PVC plastified with di-2-ethylhexyl adipate, and extracts were measured by gas chromatography with flame ionization detection. Six different adipate plasticizers were studied, and microwave-assisted extraction was compared with supercritical fluid extraction for the extraction of adipates and phthalates from PVC matrices. It has been observed that the microwave-assisted extraction parameters evaluated are tightly interconnected. It has been shown that the efficiency of microwave-assisted extraction depends on the kind of solvent, the temperature achieved and the heating time. Moreover, the final temperature reached depends on the microwave power, the number of vessels and the irradiation time. On the other hand, microwave-assisted extraction provides higher recovery values than supercritical fluid extraction for both phthalate and adipate plasticizers.

Isolated adipic aciduria.

Adipic acid can appear, in combination with other dicarboxylic acids, in the urine of patients in a number of underlying metabolic diseases. A child with seizures and mental retardation of unknown etiology who was found to have elevated isolated adipic aciduria on investigation for metabolic diseases is reported. A dietary artifact was suspected, and the adipic aciduria resolved after the child was kept on a specific restricted diet for 3 days. This is the third report of isolated adipic aciduria secondary to food. Findings confirm the previous reports of dietary origin of isolated adipic aciduria and should alert clinicians to such artifact before committing patients to unnecessary treatments.

Liberation of 14CO2 from [14C]adipic acid and [14C]octanoic acid by adult rats during riboflavin deficiency and its reversal.

The purpose of the present study was to test the hypothesis that the already well-established mitochondrial lesion in fatty acid oxidation in riboflavin-deficient experimental animals, might be accompanied by an alteration in vivo in the kinetics of oxidation of labelled adipic acid. This dicarboxylic acid was chosen for testing as a metabolic probe because a block in its oxidation was already apparent from urine analysis of riboflavin-deficient animals, whereas the oxidation of medium- or long-chain monocarboxylic acids seemed to be little affected by deficiency in vivo. Female adult Norwegian hooded rats fed on purified diets containing either 15 mg riboflavin/kg diet (controls) or about 0.4 mg/kg (riboflavin-deficient) received an intragastric dose of either [1,6-14C]adipic acid or [1-14C]octanoic acid. Expired carbon dioxide was then collected in an alkaline trap over 3 h, for determination of radioactivity. This test was repeated at intervals for up to 2 weeks following riboflavin repletion of the deficient animals, and in riboflavin-dosed controls. Whereas the rate and extent of [14C]octanoic acid oxidation was not significantly affected by the deficiency or repletion, the extent of [14C]adipic acid oxidation was markedly and significantly increased during repletion of the deficient animals. The time-course indicated a temporary overshoot, followed by a slow return to the control values over 1-2 weeks. Adipate oxidation was also much less affected by a preceding period of overnight starvation, than was octanoate oxidation. Thus, adipic acid (or a related metabolic probe) may have appropriate properties for the design of a functional test of fatty acid oxidation efficiency, during riboflavin deficiency or allied metabolic conditions in human subjects.

Metabolism of [14C]adipic acid in riboflavin-deficient rats: a test in vivo for fatty acid oxidation.

Mitochondrial preparations from riboflavin-deficient rats are known to exhibit reduced capacity for the oxidation of fatty acids. During a search for a suitable fatty acid probe for the in vivo exploration of this phenomenon, it became apparent that a dicarboxylic acid, adipic acid, was more promising than a monocarboxylic acid such as octanoic acid. Rats made riboflavin deficient, and controls at various stages of development, were dosed intragastrically with [1,6-14C]adipic acid, and 14CO2 production was measured for 3 h. All animals were then given flavin mononucleotide intragastrically to replete their tissues, and the [14C]adipic acid test was repeated at intervals thereafter. In all groups, repletion produced a highly significant increase in the whole-body adipic acid oxidation index, and reversed the low rates of oxidation which had been observed in nonrepleted, deficient animals. This approach may therefore permit the development of a new functional test for fatty acid oxidation in human riboflavin deficiency, and for other conditions in which fatty acid oxidation pathways are impaired, by the use of nonradioactive [13C]adipic acid.

Activated sludge degradation of adipic acid esters.

The biodegradability of three aliphatic adipic acid diesters and a 1,3-butylene glycol adipic acid polyester was determined in acclimated, activated sludge systems. Rapid primary biodegradation from 67 to 99+% was observed at 3- and 13-mg/liter feed levels for di-n-hexyl adipate, di(2-ethylhexyl) adipate, and di(heptyl, nonyl) adipate in 24 h. When acclimated, activated sludge microorganisms were employed as the seed for two carbon dioxide evolution procedures, greater than 75% of the theoretical carbon dioxide was evolved for the three diesters and the polyester in a 35-day test period. The essentially complete biodegradation observed in these studies suggests that these esters would not persist when exposed to similar mixed microbial populations in the environment.

Assimilation of citric acid and adipic acid by the blue-green alga Anabaena variabilis.

The assimilation of [1,6-14C] citric acid and [1,6-14C] adipic acid by the blue-green alga Anabaena variabius was studied in the dark and in the light. Citric acid was assimilated in the dark and in the light but adipic acid showed only limited assimilation in the dark. In the light the assimilation of adipic acid did not enhance the growth of the alga at a concentration of 2.85 X 10(-8) M. Growth was inhibited at adipic acid concentrations greater than 10(-3) M. Analysis of the products of adipic acid metabolism showed the presence of aspartic acid, glutamic acid, leucine, proline, and threonine and threonine amongst other unidentified compounds. A mechanism of beta-oxidation is proposed.

Effect of parbendazole and piperazine adipate on the activity of some enzymes of Ascaridia galli and Heterakis gallinae.

Adult Ascaridia galli and Heterakis gallinae obtained from the fowl (Gallus gallus) were treated in vitro with 10(-2) to 10(-5) M parbendazole and piperazine adipate for 10-60 min at 38 degrees C. Both the compounds at 10(-2) M caused mortality of A. galli and H. gallinae after a maximum of 30 min exposure. The effect of the drugs on the homogenates of the treated worm was investigated. Parbendazole (10(-2) M) inhibited malate oxidation by 68% in A. galli and 62% in H. gallinae. Piperazine adipate (10(-2) M) inhibited malate oxidation by 78% in both parasites. In A. galli oxaloacetate reduction was inhibited by 41 and 26% by 10(-2) M parbendazole and piperazine adipate, respectively; with H. gallinae this inhibition was found to be 39 and 55%, respectively. Aldolase activity in both the parasites was also inhibited by 10(-2) M parbendazole and piperazine adipate. Both compounds caused an inhibition of acid phosphomonoesterase activity, but the activities of lactate dehydrogenase and alkaline phosphomonoesterase were not affected significantly. Parbendazole (10(-2) M) had no significant effect on the cholinesterase activity of these parasites, but piperazine adipate (10(-2) M) caused an inhibition of 96% in A. galli and 93% in H. gallinae. The possible mode of action of the drugs is discussed.

Afadin- and alpha-actinin-binding protein ADIP directly binds beta'-COP, a subunit of the coatomer complex.

Afadin DIL domain-interacting protein (ADIP) is a novel protein that binds both afadin and alpha-actinin and localizes at adherens junctions, which are formed by nectins and cadherins, cell-cell adhesion molecules. Afadin is an actin filament (F-actin)-binding protein which connects nectins to the actin cytoskeleton. alpha-Actinin is another F-actin-binding protein that is indirectly associated with cadherins through the catenin complex. ADIP is at least partly involved in the physical association of nectins and cadherins. We show here that ADIP furthermore binds beta'-COP, a subunit of the coatomer complex. ADIP co-localizes with beta'-COP at the Golgi complex in Madin Darby canine kidney and normal rat kidney cells. These results suggest that ADIP is involved in vesicle trafficking from the Golgi to the endoplasmic reticulum and through the Golgi complex by interacting with the coatomer complex.

Toward templated metal-organic frameworks: synthesis, structures, thermal properties, and luminescence of three novel lanthanide-adipate frameworks.

Three novel praseodymium-adipate frameworks were synthesized hydrothermally. GWMOF-3 ([Pr(2)(adipic acid)(3)(H(2)O)(4)].adipic acid.4H(2)O) and GWMOF-6 ([Pr(2)(adipic acid)(3)(H(2)O)(2)].4,4'-dipyridyl) formed three-dimensional structures, whereas GWMOF-4 ([Pr(2)(adipic acid)(3)(H(2)O)(2)].H(2)O) produced a more dense, two-dimensional topology. Single-crystal X-ray and powder diffraction, IR spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, and elemental analysis were employed to characterize all samples. GWMOF-6 represents an innovative step forward in metal-organic framework synthesis where a neutral molecular species not used in the construction of the framework is utilized as a structure-directing agent, or template. Furthermore, this template molecule (4,4'-dipyridyl) is shown to sensitize the fluorescence of lanthanide metal centers in a europium analogue of GWMOF-6.

Non-mutagenicity of 4 metabolites of di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate (DEHP) and 3 structurally related derivatives of di(2-ethylhexyl)adipate (DEHA) in the Salmonella mutagenicity assay.

Four metabolites of the rat liver carcinogen di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate (DEHP) (mono-(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate, mono-(2-ethyl-5-hydroxyhexyl)phthalate, mono-(2-ethyl-5-oxohexyl)phthalate, and mono-(5-carboxy-2-ethylpentyl)phthalate) and 3 structurally related derivatives of di(2-ethylhexyl)adipate (DEHA) (mono-(2-ethylhexyl)adipate, mono-(2-ethyl-5-hydroxyhexyl)adipate, and mono-(2-ethyl-5-oxohexyl)adipate) were tested for mutagenicity in the Ames assay using Salmonella typhimurium strains TA97, TA98, TA100, and TA102, with and without a metabolic activation preparation. Aroclor 1254-induced rat liver S9 and DEHP-induced rat liver S9 were used. Concentrations of these compounds up to 1000 micrograms/plate were negative with all tester strains in the presence or absence of metabolic activation.

Influence of the adipate and dissolved oxygen concentrations on the beta-lactam production during continuous cultivations of a Penicillium chrysogenum strain expressing the expandase gene from Streptomyces clavuligerus.

The influence of adipate concentration and dissolved oxygen on production of adipoyl-7-aminodeacetoxycephalosporanic acid (ad-7-ADCA) by a recombinant strain of Penicillium chrysogenum expressing the expandase gene from Streptomyces clavuligerus was studied in glucose-limited continuous cultures. Operating conditions were maintained constant but the adipate and dissolved oxygen concentrations (DOC) were varied separately in a range from 1 to 37.5gl(-1) and from 2% to 125% air saturation (%AS), respectively. The total beta-lactams specific productivity, r(ptotal), was not significantly changed for adipate concentrations from 5 to 25gl(-1), but the flux towards an unknown by-product decreased as the adipate concentration increased. Investigations at different DOC showed that r(ptotal) was stable around 18 micro molgDW(-1)h(-1) for DOC being in the range from 15 to 125%AS. When DOC was decreased from 15 to 7%AS, r(ptotal) increased to 25 micro molgDW(-1)h(-1), mainly due to a two-fold increase in the adipoyl-6-aminopenicillanic acid (ad-6-APA) specific productivity.

X-ray studies on crystalline complexes involving amino acids and peptides. XLII. Adipic acid complexes of L- and DL-arginine and supramolecular association in arginine-dicarboxylic acid complexes.

The adipic acid complexes of DL-arginine and L-arginine are made up of zwitterionic, singularly positively charged arginium ions and doubly negatively charged adipate ions, with a 2:1 stoichiometry. One of the two crystallographically independent arginium ions in the L-arginine complex has a conformation hitherto unobserved in crystal structures containing the amino acid. In the present study the structural data on arginine complexes of saturated dicarboxylic acids with 0-5 C atoms separating the two carboxyl functions are given. In terms of molecular aggregation, formic and acetic acid complexes behave in a similar way to those involving fairly long carboxylic acids such as adipic acid. By and large, the supramolecular assembly in complexes involving dicarboxylic acids with 3 or more C atoms separating the carboxyl groups (glutaric, adipic and pimelic acids), and those involving formic and acetic acids, have common features. The aggregation patterns in complexes involving oxalic, malonic and maleic acids do not share striking features among themselves (except for the mode of hydrogen-bonded dimerization of arginium ions) or with those involving larger dicarboxylic acids. Complexes of succinic acid, the shortest linear dicarboxylic acid, share features with those involving shorter as well as longer dicarboxylic acids. The difference in the behaviour of long and short dicarboxylic acids and the ambiguous behaviour of succinic acid can be broadly related to their lengths.

Structure of the adipate complex [Na2(C6H9O4)2(C6H10O4)].2H2O from neutron diffraction at 220 and 295 K.

The crystal structure of sodium hydrogen adipate-adipic acid (2/1) dihydrate, [Na2(C6H9O4)2(C6H10O4)].2H2O, Mr = 518.4, has been determined from neutron diffraction data collected at 220 and 295 K. Crystals are monoclinic, space group C2/m, with Z = 2. At 295 K, a = 9.378 (2), b = 13.379 (5), c = 10.247 (3) A, beta = 95.93 (3) degrees, V = 1278.8 (7) A3, Dn = 1.346, Dm = 1.348 (1) g cm-3 (in dibromomethane/bromobutane), lambda = 1.1588 (2) A, mu = 2.186 cm-1, F(000) = 176.4 fm, R(F2) = 0.108 for all 1995 nonequivalent reflections with sin theta/lambda less than 0.71 A-1. The crystal structure is similar at 220 K except for reduced nuclear mean-square displacements. Hydrogen adipate subunits (called A) are linked end-to-end in infinite chains by very short O...O (2.44 A) hydrogen bonds where the H nuclei are on centers of symmetry within the experimental error. The Na cation is octahedrally coordinated by O atoms from molecules A and also by non-ionized adipic acid molecules (called B). The B molecules have large mean-square nuclear displacements which are described in terms of anharmonicity and disorder.

Gas-liquid chromatographic determination of adipic acid in crackling candy and soft drinks.

A procedure was developed for the simple and rapid determination of adipic acid in crackling candy and also in soft drinks. An alkaline solution of sample was extracted with ethyl ether to remove fatty substances, and H2SO4 was added to water layer to adjust the pH to less than 2. The acidified layer was saturated with NaCl and then extracted with ether. After drying, the ether layer was concentrated and the adipic acid in the concentrate was methylated using the diazomethane methograph equipped with a flame ionization detector. Recovery of adipic acid from crackling candy and from 2 kinds of soft drinks that had been fortified at the 200 ppm level was 96%. An interlaboratory test was carried out on the determination of adipic acid in orange soft drink. The results obtained by 6 laboratories were between 91 and 100% compared with the theoretical value.

Cocrystallization model for synthetic biodegradable poly(butylene adipate-co-butylene terephthalate).

Synthetic biodegradable poly(butylene adipate-co-butylene terephthalate), P(BA-co-BT), with 56 mol % butylene adipate, BA, was characterized by solid-state NMR spectroscopy, thermal analysis, X-ray diffraction, computer modeling, and polarization microscopy. The NMR study showed the presence of BA and butylene terephthalate, BT. T(1C) NMR measurements proved that some BA and BT units were in crystalline regions. Thermal analysis showed one glass-transition temperature and a single diffuse melting endotherm corresponding to a large melting-point depression of about 100 degrees C compared with poly(butylene terephthalate), PBT. These results suggest that there is only one crystalline phase. An X-ray fiber diagram of a stretched film could be indexed with the same unit cell as that for PBT. Computer modeling showed that the adipate unit fits into the crystal structure of PBT by adopting a TTGTG dihedral angle sequence in the crystalline conformation proposed for the cocrystallization model. The predicted fiber diagram from the proposed model qualitatively agrees with the experimental one. Polarization microscopy revealed that the spherulite growth rate of P(BA-co-BT) was similar to that for poly(butylene adipate), PBA.

Crystal engineering of analogous and homologous organic compounds: hydrogen bonding patterns in trimethoprim hydrogen phthalate and trimethoprim hydrogen adipate.

BACKGROUND: Trimethoprim [2,4-diamino-5-(3',4',5'-trimethoxybenzyl)pyrimidine] is an antifolate drug. It selectively inhibits the bacterial dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) enzyme. RESULTS: In the crystal structures of trimethoprim (TMP)-hydrogen phthalate (1) and trimethoprim-hydrogen adipate (2), one of the N atoms of the pyrimidine ring is protonated and it interacts with the deprotonated carboxylate oxygens through a pair of nearly parallel N-H...O hydrogen bonds to form a fork-like interaction. In the compound 1, the pyrimidine moieties of the TMP cations are centrosymmetrically paired through a pair of N-H...N hydrogen bonds involving 4-amino group and the N (N3) atom of the pyrimidine rings to form a 8-membered hydrogen bonded ring [R2(2)(8)]. The 4-amino group of one TMP moiety and 2-amino group of another TMP moiety (both moieties are members of a base pair) are bridged by the carbonyl oxygen of the phthalate moiety through N-H...O hydrogen bonds forming 8-membered hydrogen-bonded ring [R2(2)(8)]. The characteristic hydrogen-bonded rings observed in the structure aggregate into a supramolecular ladder consisting of a pair of chains, each of which is built up of alternate TMP and hydrogen phthalate ions. In the compound 2, two TMP cations and two hydrogen adipate anions are arranged about an inversion center so that the complementary DDAA (D = donor, A = acceptor) arrays of quadruple hydrogen-bonding patterns are formed. The head-to-tail arrangement of the hydrogen adipate ions leads to a hydrogen-bonded supramolecular chain. From crystal engineering point of view, it is interesting to note that the compound 1 has a hydrogen-bonded network remarkably identical with its aliphatic analogue, trimethoprim hydrogen maleate. Similarly the compound 2, resembles its homolog trimethoprim hydrogen glutarate. CONCLUSION: In the crystal structure of trimethoprim hydrogen phthalate, the hydrogen-bonded network is remarkably identical with its aliphatic analogue, trimethoprim hydrogen maleate. Similarly in the crystal structure of trimethoprim hydrogen adipate the hydrogen bonded network resembles its homolog trimethoprim hydrogen glutarate.
