Oliphant S, Morris RH. Density Functional Theory Study on the Selective Reductive Amination of Aldehydes and Ketones over Their Reductions to Alcohols Using Sodium Triacetoxyborohydride.

Abstract
Reductive amination is one of the most important methods to synthesize amines, having a wide application in the pharmaceutical, fine chemicals, and materials industries. In general, the reaction begins with dehydration between a carbonyl compound and an amine compound, forming an imine, which is then reduced to an alkylated amine product. Sodium triacetoxyborohydride (STAB) is a popular choice for the reducing agent as it shows selectivity for imines over aldehydes and ketones, which is particularly important in direct reductive amination where the imine and carbonyl compounds are present concurrently. Here, we analyze the reaction pathways of acid-catalyzed direct reductive amination in 1,2-dichloroethane (DCE) with acetaldehyde and methylamine. We find that the transition states for the formation and subsequent reduction of Z-methylethylideneimine (resultant aldimine from acetaldehyde and methylamine) have lower energies than the reduction of acetaldehyde. Transition state structures for the hydride transfers are organized by the Lewis-acidic sodium ion. Additionally, reduction reactions with formaldehyde and acetone and their imine derivatives (with methylamine) are investigated, and again, the hydride transfer to the resultant aldimine or ketimine is lower in energy than that of their parent carbonyl compound.

Abstract
Rare anionic forms of nucleic acids play a significant biological role and lead to spontaneous mutations and replication and translational errors. There is a lack of information surrounding the stability and reactivity of these forms. Ion pairs of mono‐sodium and ‐potassium salts of adenine exist in DMSO solution with possible cation coordination sites at the N1, N7 and N9 atoms of the purine ring. At increasing concentrations π‐π stacked dimers are the predominant species of aggregates followed by higher order aggregation governed by coordination to metal cations in which the type of counter ion present has a central role in the aggregate formation.

Abstract
The aim of the present study was to ivnestigate the chemical constituents of the Chinese medicine Pi Han Yao (Gueldenstaedtia delavayi Franch) decoction. Following this, the quantitative determination of the formononetin and maackiain content in Pi Han Yao was established. The chemical constituents were isolated by column chromatography and their structures were elucidated by analysis of spectrometric data and chemical evidence. High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) was used for the determination of the formononetin and maackiain content in Pi Han Yao. Seven flavanones were isolated from the Pi Han Yao decoction. Five of the chemical structures were elucidated as 1, 7,2'-dihydroxy-4'-methoxy-isoflavanol; 2, maackiain; 3, formononetin-7-O-β-D-glucoside; 4, formononetin; and 5, 9-(β-D-ribofuranosyl)-adenosine. The other two compounds and their structures require further study. Additionally, the linear range of formononetin and maackiain were 0.03992-0.3992 and 0.0292-0.292 µg, and their recoveries were 100.31 and 100.44%. To the best of our knowledge, compounds 1-5 were obtained from Pi Han Yao for the first time. The HPLC method use for determination of formononetin and maackiain in Pi Han Yao was simple, accurate and reliable. Findings from the present study suggest that these methods may be used to evaluate the quality of Pi Han Yao and provide an experience basis for quality standards of this medicinal material.

Abstract
A number of diseases, including cancer, diabetes, and inflammation, are linked to deregulation of cell signaling pathways controlled by protein kinases. Inhibition of the kinases involved can interrupt aberrant signaling and have a specific therapeutic effect. Protein kinases are recognized as validated therapeutic targets for the treatment of a number of diseases and there are considerable efforts to discover new kinase inhibitors suitable for drug development. The main goal of this study was to fabricate the synthetic imitations of the adenosine triphosphate (ATP) binding cleft in protein kinases and thus produce polymers suitable for screening and isolation of new protein kinase ATP-mimetic inhibitors from different sources. Such polymers were created by the imprinting of tri-O-acetyladenosine in acrylic polymer matrix with the use of methacrylic acid (MAA) or 3-vinylbenzoic acid (VBA) as a functional monomer and ethylene glycol dimethacrylate as a cross-linking agent. The imprints prepared with the use of VBA demonstrate substantially better binding efficiency than that with MAA and particularly high affinity to the initial template (Kd as low as 1.2 μM), sufficient concentration of binding sites N (up to 32 μmol g-1 ), and pronounced specificity (imprinting factor up to 11). Under flow conditions, the fabricated polymers also demonstrate high capacity and template affinity. The produced imprints reproduce spatially noncovalent interactions present in the ATP binding site of protein kinases and can be anticipated as approximate synthetic imitations of the binding cleft.

Abstract
Associates of 3',5'-O-TBDMS protected derivatives of the 2'-deoxy forms of the nucleosides adenosine, 6-N-methyl-adenosine and thymidine (henceforward simply addressed by their parents' names) and further model systems in dichloromethane and Freon (CDClF2/CDF3) solutions are studied at low temperatures by 1H NMR and FT-IR spectroscopy. N⋯N distances in hydrogen bonds are estimated from chemical shifts of protons in hydrogen bonds employing geometric and spectroscopic hydrogen bond correlations. These distances are in turn employed to derive N–H stretching frequencies from IR spectroscopic hydrogen bond correlations which may be compared to corresponding experimental results. Three isomeric hydrogen bonded dimers of thymidine are characterized in Freon solution at 120 K. Binary associates of thymidine and a series of pyridines are studied; estimated N⋯N distances in the range of 3.08 to 2.85 Å are qualitatively correlated to shifts of N–H stretching bands where in all cases considerable contributions are found in the spectral region below 3000 cm-1. For adenosine, three isomeric binary associates with 4-nitrophenol are found allowing for an assessment of site-specific acceptor capabilities. In associates of thymidine and adenosine, Watson-Crick and Hoogsteen type 1:1 associates (estimated N⋯N distances of 2.85 and 2.90 Å) as well as 2:1 associates bearing only marginally longer H-bonds could be characterized. Two 1:1 associates between thymidine and 6-N-methyl-adenosine are described that are exclusively bonded via N–H⋯N bridges of about 2.97 and 3.08 Å for Watson-Crick and Hoogsteen sites, respectively, which leads to the conclusion that cooperative effects among coupled N–H⋯O and N–H⋯N hydrogen bonds in A-T base pairs are significant as formation of the N–H⋯O bond induces a contraction of around 0.15 Å in the neighboring N–H⋯N bond.

Abstract
Abstract
A TSiT dinucleotide linked through a nonionic diisopropylsilyl backbone has been synthesized and studied for its self-association through base–base recognition together with a free thymidine nucleoside. To characterize hydrogen-bonded associates in more detail, NMR measurements were performed in a freonic solvent at temperatures as low as 113 K in the slow hydrogen bond exchange regime. For the thymidine, TT base pairs with both the 2- and 4-carbonyl engaged in hydrogen bonds to the imino proton were observed. Whereas hydrogen bonds to the O4 acceptor are stronger as evidenced by a more deshielded proton in the hydrogen bridge when compared to hydrogen bonds to the O2 acceptor, the latter is nevertheless slightly favored over O4 in the H-bond formation of TT base pairs. The diisopropylsilyl linkage of the TSiT dinucleotide has no significant impact on the geometry and strength of formed NH–O2 and NH–O4 hydrogen bonds indicating, that the silyl backbone does not compromise the alignment of bases and does not pose any restrictions to the cyclic hydrogen bond formation between thymidines of the two strands. However, NMR results point to an exclusive formation of TSiT duplexes with an antiparallel strand orientation.

Abstract
Ab initio quantum-chemical study of specific point contacts of replisome proteins with DNA modeled by acetic acid with canonical and mutagenic tautomers of DNA bases methylated at the glycosidic nitrogen atoms was performed in vacuo and continuum with a low dielectric constant (ϵ ∼ 4) corresponding to a hydrophobic interface of protein-nucleic acid interaction. All tautomerized complexes were found to be dynamically unstable, because the electronic energies of their back-reaction barriers do not exceed zero-point vibrational energies associated with the vibrational modes whose harmonic vibrational frequencies become imaginary in the transition states of the tautomerization reaction. Additionally, based on the physicochemical arguments, it was demonstrated that the effects of biomolecular environment cannot ensure dynamic stabilization. This result allows suggesting that hypothetically generated by DNA-binding proteins of replisome rare tautomers will have no impact on the total spontaneous mutation due to the low reverse barrier allowing a quick return to the canonical form.

Abstract
Base pairs formed by the inosine nucleoside (I) play an important role in many physiological processes as well as in various DNA technologies. Relative stabilities and favored base pair geometries of free inosine wobble base pairs in aprotic solvents have been determined through (1)H NMR measurements at room temperature and at very low temperatures in a freonic solvent. As indicated by its significantly deshielded imino proton, the Watson-Crick-type I·C base pair forms a remarkably strong NHN hydrogen bond. For the thermodynamically less stable I·A wobble base pair, two configurations of similar population coexist at 133 K in the slow hydrogen bond exchange regime, namely a Watson-Crick(I)-Watson-Crick(A) geometry and a Watson-Crick(I)-Hoogsteen(A) geometry. I·U base pairs are stabilized by two rather weak hydrogen bonds and are significantly disfavored over inosine self-associates in a low-temperature Freon solution.

Abstract
Two self-complementary dinucleotide analogues T(Si)A and A(Si)T with a nonionic diisopropylsilyl-modified backbone were synthesized, and their association in a nonaqueous aprotic environment was studied by NMR spectroscopy. Using a CDClF(2)/CDF(3) solvent mixture, measurements at temperatures as low as 113 K allowed the observation and structural characterization of individual complexes in the slow exchange regime. The A(Si)T analogue associates to exclusively form a dinucleotide antiparallel duplex with regular Watson-Crick base pairing, but both A and T nucleosides exhibit a predominant C3'-endo sugar pucker reminiscent of an A-type conformation. In contrast to A(Si)T, the T(Si)A dinucleotide is found to exhibit significant variability and flexibility. Thus, different secondary structures with weaker hydrogen bonds for all T(Si)A structures are observed at low temperatures. Although a B-like Watson-Crick antiparallel dinucleotide duplex with a preferred C2'-endo sugar pucker largely predominates at temperatures above 153 K, two additional species, namely a dinucleotide Hoogsteen duplex with a syn glycosidic torsion angle of the adenosine nucleoside and a presumably intramolecularly folded structure, are increasingly populated upon further cooling. By adding typical DNA intercalators like anthracene or benz[c]acridine derivatives to the A(Si)T dinucleotide duplex in the aprotic solvent environment, no binding of the polycyclic aromatic molecules can be detected even at lower temperatures. Obviously, van der Waals and stacking interactions are insufficient to compensate for the other unfavorable contributions to the overall free energy of binding, and only in the presence of additional hydrophobic effects in an aqueous environment does binding occur.

Abstract
Complexes between adenine and the alkali metal ions Li(+), Na(+), K(+), and Cs(+) have been investigated by infrared multiple photon dissociation (IRMPD) spectroscopy between 2800 and 3900 cm(-1), as have some singly hydrated complexes. The IRMPD spectra clearly show the N-H stretching and the NH(2) symmetric and asymmetric stretching vibrations of adenine; and for the solvated ions, the O-H stretching vibrations are observed. These experimental spectra were compared with those for a variety of possible structures, including both A9 (A9 refers to the tautomer where hydrogen is on the nitrogen in position 9 of adenine, see Scheme 1) and A7 adenine tautomers, computed using B3-LYP/6-31+G(d,p). By comparing the experimental and the simulated spectra it is possible to rule out various structures and to further assign structures to the species probed in these experiments. Single-point calculations on the B3-LYP/6-31+G(d,p) geometries have been performed at MP2/6-311++G(2d, p) to obtain good estimates of the relative thermochemistries for the different structures. In all cases the computed IR spectrum for the lowest energy structure is consistent with the experimental IRMPD spectrum, but in some cases structural assignment cannot be confirmed based solely upon comparison with the experimental spectra so computed thermochemistries can be used to rule out high-energy structures. On the basis of the IRMPD spectra and the energy calculations, all adenine-M(+) and adenine-M(+)-H(2)O are concluded to be composed of the A7 tautomer of adenine, which is bound to the cations in a bidentate fashion through N3 and N9 (see Scheme 1 for numbering convention). For the hydrated ions water binds directly to the metal ion through oxygen, as would be expected since the metal contains most positive charge density. For the hydrated lithium cation-bound adenine dimer, the water molecule is concluded to be hydrogen bonded to a free basic site of one of the adenine monomers, which is also bound to the lithium cation. Experimental and theoretical results on adenine-Li(+)-H(2)O suggest that the electrosprayed adenine-Li(+) resembles the lowest-energy solution phase ion rather than the lowest-energy gas-phase ion, which is the imine form.

The template molecule was formed by the vinylphenylboronate diester of adenosine on which 5'-free hydroxide was protected by tert-butyldimethylsilyl group in order to mimic the steric hindrance of the phosphate moiety of AMP. Molecular imprinting was performed by complexing acrylamide and the template in a highly cross-linked polymer. MIPs were tested in batch experiments with aqueous samples of nucleotides and a number of parameters were investigated. The use of tetrabutylammonium hydroxide (TBAH) was necessary to obtain a rebinding of nucleotides on MIP. The adsorption of AMP was optimal in 5 mM ammonium acetate buffer solution pH 9.5 for 30 min, with 30 mM of TBAH. The imprinted polymer was selective for AMP towards others nucleotides or deoxi analogues.

Abstract
The energetics of the ion-molecule interactions and structures of the clusters formed between protonated nucleic acid bases (cytosine, uracil, thymine, and adenine) and ammonia have been studied by pulsed ionization high-pressure mass spectrometry (HPMS) and ab initio calculations. For protonated cytosine, uracil, thymine, and adenine with ammonia, the measured enthalpies of association with ammonia are -21.7, -27.9, -22.1, and -17.5 kcal mol-1, respectively. Different isomers of the neutral and protonated nucleic acid bases as well as their clusters with ammonia have been investigated at the B3LYP/6-31+G(d,p) level of theory, and the corresponding binding energetics have also been obtained. The potential energy surfaces for proton transfer and interconversion of the clusters of protonated thymine and uracil with ammonia have been constructed. For cytosine, the experimental binding energy is in agreement with the computed binding energy for the most stable isomer, CN01-01, which is derived from the enol form of protonated cytosine, CH01, and ammonia. Although adenine has a proton affinity similar to that of cytosine, the binding energy of protonated adenine to ammonia is much lower than that for protonated cytosine. This is shown to be due to the differing types of hydrogen bonds being formed. Similarly, although uracil and thymine have similar structures and proton affinities, the binding energies between the protonated species and ammonia are different. Strikingly, the addition of a single methyl group, in going from uracil to thymine, results in a significant structural change for the most stable isomers, UN01-01 and TN03-01, respectively. This then leads to the difference in their measured binding energies with ammonia. Because thymine is found only in DNA while uracil is found in RNA, this provides some potential insight into the difference between uracil and thymine, especially their interactions with other molecules.

Abstract
Complexation of the amino- and carboxyl-protected tripeptide Piv-L-Val-L-Val-L-Val-tBu with 3-methylpyrazole and 3-amino-5-methylpyrazole was studied by low-temperature NMR experiments in a freonic solvent. The peptide forms an extended beta-type structure at all temperatures and associates through hydrogen bonding with the two pyrazole-based beta-sheet ligands. A detailed structural characterization of the formed complexes by one- and two-dimensional NMR experiments under slow exchange conditions was made possible by employing very low temperatures. The tripeptide associates to stable antiparallel dimers that are symmetrically capped on both sides by two pyrazole receptors to form 2:2 complexes. Amide groups of two neighboring residues in an extended conformation are involved in cyclic hydrogen bonds to the pyrazole. Based on amide chemical shift changes, the relative strength of intermolecular hydrogen bonds can be assessed and correlated with the electronic effects of the substituents on the pyrazole.

Abstract
NMR experiments and theoretical investigations were performed on hydrogen bonded complexes of specifically 1- and 7-15N-labeled adenine nucleosides with carboxylic acids. By employing a freonic solvent of CDClF2 and CDF3, NMR spectra were acquired at temperatures as low as 123 K, where the regime of slow hydrogen bond exchange is reached and several higher-order complexes were found to coexist in solution. Unlike acetic acid, chloroacetic acid forms Watson-Crick complexes with the proton largely displaced from oxygen to the nitrogen acceptor in an ion pairing structure. Calculated geometries and chemical shifts of the proton in the hydrogen bridge favorably agree with experimentally determined values if vibrational averaging and solvent effects are taken into account. The results indicate that binding a second acidic ligand at the adenine Hoogsteen site in a ternary complex weakens the hydrogen bond to the Watson-Crick bound carboxylic acid. However, substituting a second adenine nucleobase for a carboxylic acid in the trimolecular complex leads to cooperative binding at Watson-Crick and Hoogsteen faces of adenosine.

Abstract
Complexes between ammonia, water, or hydrogen fluoride and adenine, guanine, or their 8-oxo derivatives are investigated using density-functional theory. The binding strengths of the neutral and (N9) anionic complexes are considered for a variety of purine binding sites. The effects of hydrogen-bonding interactions on the (N9) acidity of the purine derivatives are considered as a function of the molecule bound and the binding site. It is found that hydrogen-bonding interactions with one molecule can increase the acidity of purine derivatives by up to 60 kJ mol(-1). The (calculated) simultaneous effects of up to four molecules on the acidity of the purine derivatives are also considered. Our data suggest that the effects of more than one molecule on the acidity of the purines are generally less than the sum of the individual (additive) effects, where the magnitude of the deviation from additivity increases with the number, as well as the acidity, of molecules bound. Nevertheless, the increase in the acidity due to additional hydrogen-bonding interactions is significant, where the effect of two, three, or four hydrogen-bonding interactions can be as large as approximately 95, 115, and 130 kJ mol(-1), respectively. The present study provides a greater fundamental understanding of hydrogen-bonding interactions involving the natural purines, as well as those generated through oxidative DNA damage, which may aid the understanding of important biological processes.
