Abstract
Phenyl boronic acids are valuable for medical diagnostics and biochemistry studies due to their ability to readily bind with carbohydrates in water. Incorporated in carbohydrates are 1,2-diols, which react with boronic acids through a reversible covalent condensation pathway. A wide variety of boronic acids have been employed for diol binding with differing substitution of the phenyl ring, with the goals of simplifying their synthesis and altering their thermodynamics of complexation. One method for monitoring their pKa's and binding is 11B NMR spectroscopy. Herein, we report a comprehensive study employing 11B NMR spectroscopy to determine the pKa of the most commonly used phenyl boronic acids and their binding with catechol or d,l-hydrobenzoin as prototypical diols. The chemical shift of the boronic acid transforming into the boronate ester was monitored at pHs ranging from 2 to 10. With each boronic acid, the results confirm (1) the necessity to use pHs above their pKa's to induce complexation, (2) that the pKa's change in the presence of diols, and (3) that 11B NMR spectroscopy is a particularly convenient tool for monitoring these interconnected acidity and binding phenomena.

Int J Mol Sci 2021; 22:ijms22179179. [PMID: 34502085 PMCID: PMC8431444 DOI: 10.3390/ijms22179179] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/20/2021] [Revised: 08/19/2021] [Accepted: 08/20/2021] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Facile method for the preparation of β–cyclodextrin–functionalized hydrogels based on guanosine quartet assembly was described. A series of seven hydrogels were prepared by linking β–cyclodextrin molecules with guanosine moieties in different ratios through benzene–1,4–diboronic acid linker in the presence of potassium hydroxide. The potassium ions acted as a reticulation agent by forming guanosine quartets, leading to the formation of self–sustained transparent hydrogels. The ratios of the β–cyclodextrin and guanosine components have a significant effect on the internal structuration of the components and, correspondingly, on the mechanical properties of the final gels, offering a tunablity of the system by varying the components ratio. The insights into the hydrogels’ structuration were achieved by circular dichroism, scanning electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy, and X–ray diffraction. Rheological measurements revealed self–healing and thixotropic properties of all the investigated samples, which, in combination with available cyclodextrin cavities for active components loading, make them remarkable candidates for specific applications in biomedical and pharmaceutical fields. Moreover, all the prepared samples displayed selective antimicrobial properties against S. aureus in planktonic and biofilm phase, the activity also depending on the guanosine and cyclodextrin ratio within the hydrogel structure.

Abstract
Glycosylation is a post-translational modification that is often altered in disease development and progression, including cancer. In cancerous patients, the abnormal expression of glycosylation enzymes leads to aberrant glycosylation, which has been linked to malignant tissues. Due to aberrant glycosylation, the presence of specific glycans can be used as biomarkers for identifying the type and stage of cancer. Glycan structures are heterogeneous, with different protein glycoforms having different functional activities. Lectins are an important tool in glycan analysis due to their specificity in binding to unique glycan linkages and monosaccharide units, which allows for the identification of unique glycan structural properties. In this review, we will discuss the use of lectins in microarrays and chromatography for characterizing glycan structures.

Abstract
An unprecedented enantioselective synthesis of 3-substituted benzoxaboroles has been developed. An in situ generated ortho-boronic acid containing chalcone provides the chiral benzoxaboroles via an asymmetric oxa-Michael addition of hydroxyl group attached to the boronic acid triggered by the cinchona alkaloid based chiral amino-squaramide catalysts. In general, good yields with good to excellent enantioselectivities (up to 99%) were obtained. The resulting benzoxaboroles were converted to the corresponding chiral β-hydroxy ketones without affecting the enantioselectivity.

Abstract
Wulff-type boronic acids have been shown to act as ionophores at pH 8.2 by transporting Na(+) through phospholipid bilayers. A cholate-boronic acid conjugate was synthesised and shown to be an ionophore, although the hydroxyl-lined face of the cholate moiety did not enhance ion transport. Mechanistic studies suggested a carrier mechanism for Na(+) transport. The addition of fructose (>5 mM) strongly inhibited ionophoric activity of the cholate-boronic acid conjugate, mirrored by a strong decrease in the ability of this compound to partition into an organic phase. Modelling of the partitioning and ion transport data, using a fructose/boronic acid binding constant measured at pH 8.2, showed a good correlation with the extent of fructose/boronic acid complexation and suggested high polarity fructose/boronic acid complexes are poor ionophores. The sensitivity of ion transport to fructose implies that boronic acid-based antibiotic ionophores with activity modulated by polysaccharides in the surrounding environment may be accessible.
