Improved Synthetic Procedures for 4,7,2‘,7‘-Tetrachloro- and 4‘,5‘-Dichloro-2‘,7‘-dimethoxy-5(and 6)-carboxyfluoresceins
摘要:
Literature syntheses of 4,7,2',7'-tetrachloro-5(and 6)-carboxyfluorescein ("5 and 6 TET") 1 and 4',5' dichloro-2',7'-dimethoxy-5(and 6) carboxyfluorescein ("5 and 6 JOE") 2 are reviewed, and new, preparatively useful methods are presented. A three-step synthesis of 1 was developed, which proved to be more efficient than the published seven step synthesis of this compound. The published synthesis of 2 also proved difficult to reproduce, and a better workup of the key intermediate 2-chloro-4-methoxy resorcinol was devised. Isolation of purified single isomers of both dyes is described.

Electrophoretic probes comprising fluorescent compounds as detection groups and mobility modifiers are disclosed for the multiplexed detection of the binding of, or interaction between, one or more ligands and target antiligands are provided. In one embodiment, detection involves the release of identifying tags as a consequence of target recognition. Target antiligands are contacted with a set of e-tag probes and the contacted antiligands are treated with a selected cleaving agent resulting in a mixture of e-tag reporters. Typically, uncleaved or partially cleaved e-tag probes are removed and the mixture of e-tag reporters is separated by any technique that provides for separation by mass or mass to charge ratio and the like and detected to provide for target identification.

Probe sets for the multiplexed detection of the binding of, or interaction between, one or more ligands and target antiligands are provided. Detection involves the release of identifying tags as a consequence of target recognition. The probe sets include electrophoretic tag probes or e-tag probes, comprising a detection region and a mobility-defining region called the mobility modifier, both linked to a target-binding moiety. Target antiligands are contacted with a set of e-tag probes and the contacted antiligands are treated with a selected cleaving agent resulting in a mixture of e-tag reporters and uncleaved and/or partially cleaved e-tag probes. The mixture is exposed to a capture agent effective to bind to uncleaved or partially cleaved e-tag probes, followed by electrophoretic separation. In a multiplexed assay, different released e-tag reporters may be separated and detected providing for target identification. The methods employ compositions comprising luminescent molecules such as, for example, fluorescent molecules, which are modified to provide for electrophoretic properties that differ for each modified luminescent molecule while maintaining substantially the same absorption, emission and quantum yield properties of the original luminescent molecule. The compositions may be cleavably linked to binding molecules to form the e-tag probes.
We describe here a manganese-catalyzed asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of hindered ketones containing 2,6-disubstituted phenyl group. This method is enabled by using a readily available chiral aminobenzimidazole manganese(I) complex as the catalyst in combination with ammonia borane compounds as the hydrogen source (especially, dimethylamine borane), producing the chiral alcohols with up to 99 %
