Coupling amines

Protamine kinase (from rainbow trout testes) [37278-10-7] [EC 2.7.1.70]. Partial purification by hydoxylapatite chromatography followed by biospecific chromatography on nucleotide coupled Sepharose 4B (the nucleotide was 8-(6-aminohexyl)amine coupled cyclic-AMP). [Jergil et al. Biochem J139 441 1974.]... 

Inter- and intramolecular amine coupling was prevented by the use of hydrogen chloride in a synthesis of pyridoxine 33)... 

We synthesized uniform CU2O coated Cu nanoparticles from the thermal decomposition of copper acetylacetonate, followed by air oxidation. We successfully used these nanoparticles for the catalysts for Ullmann type amination coupling reactions of aryl chlorides. We synthesized core/shell-like Ni/Pd bimetallic nanoparticles from the consecutive thermal decomposition of metal-surfactant complexes. The nanoparticle catalyst was atom-economically applied for various Sonogashira coupling reactions.

BIAlite system. Sensor Chip CMS, HBS buffer (lOmM H es, pH 7.4, 150 mM NaCl, 0.005% v/v surfactant p20 in distilled water), amine coupling kit were fi-om Pharmacia Biosensor (Uppsala, Sweden). 

PGIP, purified fi om P.vulgaris hypocotyls [11], was immobilized to the sensor ch via amine coupling. A continuous flow of HBS buffer (5 pl/min) was mantained over the sensor surface. The carboxylated dextran matrix of the sensor surface was first activated by a 6-min injection of a mixture of N-hydroxy-succinimide and N-ethyl-N - (3-diethylaminopropyl) carbodiimide, followed by a 7-min injection of PGIP (lOng/pl in 10 mM acetate, pH 5.0). Hie immobilization procedure was con leted by a 7-min injection of 1 M ethanolamine hydrochloride to block the remaining ester groups. 

Sulfo-LC-SMPT is not as stable as SMPT. The sulfo-NHS ester is more susceptible to hydrolysis in aqueous solutions and the pyridyl disulfide group is more easily reduced to the free sulfhydryl. Stock solutions of sulfo-LC-SMPT may be prepared in water, but should be used immediately to prevent loss of amine coupling ability. 

Enzymes that are glycosylated (i.e., HRP and GO) may be oxidized according to the following method to produce aldehyde groups for reductive amination coupling to an antibody molecule. 

Reductive amination coupling forming secondary amine linkage... 

It is a rule that combination with phenols takes place only in alkaline or neutral solution, whereas the aromatic amines couple in feebly add solution (usually acetic acid). 

Surface immobilization of the capture molecules follows standard procedures that are commonly practiced in many biosensor applications and some are discussed in the previous section. Layers of carboxymethyl dextran. Protein A or Protein G, streptavidin-coated surface, or EDC [N-ethyl-N-(diethylaminopropyl) carbidimide]/NHS (N-hydroxysuccmimide)-based amine coupling through amide bond are used for protein (antibody, receptor, etc.) cross-linking. 

Perhaps the best-known method of preparing aromatic azo compounds involves the coupling of diazonium salts with sufficiently reactive aromatic compounds such as phenols, aromatic amines, phenyl ethers, the related naphthalene compounds, and even sufficiently reactive aromatic hydrocarbons. Generally, the coupling must be carried out in media which are neutral or slightly basic or which are buffered in the appropriate pH range. The reaction may also be carried out in nonaqueous media. While some primary and secondary aromatic amines initially form an A-azoamine, which may rearrange to the more usual amino-C-azo compound, tertiary amines couple in a normal manner. 

Picosecond spectroscopic studies by Peters and co-workers allow for precise time resolution of the chemical events following the initial electron exchange in ketone/amine couples.
