BACKGROUND Heterobifunctional cross-linking agents are useful in both protein science and organic synthesis. Aminolysis of reactive esters in aqueous systems is often used in bioconjugation chemistry, but it must compete against hydrolysis processes. Here we study the kinetics of aminolysis and hydrolysis of 2-S-phosphorylacetate ester intermediates that result from displacement of bromide by a...

In this paper, a comprehensive study has been made on the detection of free fatty acids (FFAs) in palm oil via an optical technique based on enzymatic aminolysis reactions. FFAs in crude palm oil (CPO) were converted into fatty hydroxamic acids (FHAs) in a biphasic lipid/aqueous medium in the presence of immobilized lipase. The colored compound formed after complexation between FHA and vanadium...

The aminolysis of a mildly activated aminoacid ester, benzyloxycarbonyl-L-phenylalanine cyanomethyl ester, by glycine esters in the presence of catechol has been studied as a model of catalysis by RNA cis-vicinal-diol systems in protein biosynthesis. Catechol accelerated the aminolysis, especially in the presence of bases, probably by nucleophilic catalysis.

The aminolysis of a novel activated ester resin was utilized for kinetic study via continuous in situ fluorescence measurements. A variety of resin compositions (polystyrene, JandaJel, ArgoPore, TentaGel, NovaGel, and PEGA) and solvents (dimethylformamide, acetonitrile, tetrahydrofuran, 1,2-dichlorethane, and toluene) were tested to compare their effects on the reaction rate. A linear relations...

Pillar[5]arenes with introverted amino groups were produced through aminolysis. X-ray analysis demonstrated that the intramolecular hydrogen bonding induced the amino group toward the inner space of the cavity. The kinetic studies and molecular modelings revealed that the hydrogen bonding also contributed to the acceleration of the aminolysis through stabilizing the intermediate.

Recent theoretical studies have suggested that the parent diazeniumdiolate ion, H2N-N(O)═NO(-) ("diazeniumdiolated ammonia"), might be stable enough to be isolated and that it could potentially serve as a uniquely advantageous prodrug form of bioactive nitroxyl (HNO). Here, we report on an attempt to isolate its O(2)-benzylated derivative by aminolysis of the C═N bond in PhC(NH2)═N-N(O)═NOBn. T...

Background: The carbonyl group at position 2 of N-acetylisatin behaves as an amide which is more susceptible to nucleophilic attack via ring-opening in the presence of nucleophiles. Because of this behavior, in the present work we describe the microwave synthesis of a series of α-ketoamide and bis-(α-ketoamide) derivatives via the facile ring-opening of N-acylisatin with different amines and di...

The Plastic Waste phenomenon, which is the result of increasing poly (ethylene terephthalate) production and the wide range PET consumption in different industries, caused one of the major environmental concerns. Therefore,many different ways have been studied and applied for chemical recycling of PET. One of the most important ways to depolymerize poly (ethylene terephthalate) is the aminolysi...

We have generated antibody FTB8E9 by immunization with the designed hapten to catalyze the aminolysis reaction of a chloropyrimidine derivative.

In this study, functionalization of PET fabrics with amino groups was achieved by aminolysis. Aminolysis routes were explored using different amine-based materials including ethylenediamine (EDA), triaminotriethylamine (TAEA) and (3-aminopropyl)trimethoxysilane (APTMS), (3-trimethoxy-silylpropyl)diethylentriamine (TRIAMO) in addition to amino-functionalized silica nanoparticles as amino-silane ...
