Fluorescent nucleosides with ‘on–off’ switching function, pH-responsive fluorescent uridine derivatives
摘要:
We synthesized various pH-responsive fluorescent deoxyuridine derivatives (1a-g). These fluorescent nucleosides exhibited distinctive fluorescence at 470-600 nm in aqueous solvents containing methanol only at acidic to neutral pH values. In particular, 1f exhibited strong fluorescence only at pH range of 3.1-7.2 with a pK(a) of 6.1. Such pH-sensitive fluorescent nucleosides can be used as 'on-off' fluorescence switch for monitoring pH change in biological systems, particularly for cancer cell detection. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd.

A composite having a metal substance bonded to a block polymer. The composite is capable of electric bonding via the metallic substance. A device in which a pair of electrodes are connected via a polymer chain of the block polymer. The block polymer has in at least a part thereof a block structure of a repeating unit that has in a side chain thereof an organic functional group for bonding to at least one of the metallic entities. The polymer main chain of the block structure has a helical shape. In the composite of a metal and the block polymer, a part of the block structure of the block polymer is bonded to the metal species. In the device having the block polymer and an electrode composed of the metallic substance, a part of the block structure of the block polymer is bonded to the metallic substance.
