Schiff bases immobilization

Affinity microparticles (AMPs) were obtained by cross-linking the S-layer lattice on S-layer-carrying cell wall fragments with glutaraldehyde, reducing Schiff bases with sodium borohydride, and immobilizing protein A as an IgG-specific ligand [92]. Thus, AMPs rep-... 

The immobilization of metal catalysts onto sohd supports has become an important research area, as catalyst recovery, recycling as well as product separation is easier under heterogeneous conditions. In this respect, the iron complex of the Schiff base HPPn 15 (HPPn = iVA -bis(o-hydroxyacetophenone) propylene diamine) was supported onto cross-linked chloromethylated polystyrene beads. Interestingly, the supported catalyst showed higher catalytic activity than the free metal complex (Scheme 8) [50, 51]. In terms of chemical stability, particularly with...

A phosgene-free route to aromatic isocyanates, such as M DI and TDI, was reported by Fernandez et al. [42] (Scheme 5.7) According to the patent, the one-pot synthesis involves the use of an immobilized Schiff base type of ligand catalyst that facilitates the oxidative carbonylation of aromatic amines to the corresponding isocyanates. However, 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol (TFE), 1,2-dichlorobenzene, and carbon monoxide were used in this process, so this would not be a totally environmentally friendly process even if these reagents could be recycled and reused. 

The use of supported (i.e., heterogenized) homogeneous catalysts offers another possibility for easy catalyst separation. New examples include polymer-anchored Schiff-base complexes of Pd(TT),446 PdCl2(PhCN)2 supported on heterocyclic polyamides,447 various Pd complexes supported on crosslinked polymers 448 sol-gel-encapsulated Rh-quatemary ammonium ion-pair catalysts,449 and zwitterionic Rh(T) catalysts immobilized on silica with hydrogen bonding.450... 

Transition metal complexes encapsulated in the channel of zeolites have received a lot of attention, due to their high catalytic activity, selectivity and stability in field of oxidation reactions. Generally, transition metal complex have only been immobilized in the classical large porous zeolites, such as X, Y[l-4], But the restricted sizes of the pores and cavities of the zeolites not only limit the maximum size of the complex which can be accommodated, but also impose resistance on the diffusion of substrates and products. Mesoporous molecular sieves, due to their high surface area and ordered pore structure, offer the potentiality as a good host for immobilizing transition complexes[5-7]. The previous reports are mainly about molecular sieves encapsulated mononuclear metal complex, whereas the reports about immobilization of heteronuclear metal complex in the host material are few. Here, we try to prepare MCM-41 loaded with binuclear Co(II)-La(III) complex with bis-salicylaldehyde ethylenediamine schiff base. 

Immobilization by reductive amination of amine-containing biological molecules onto aldehyde-containing solid supports has been used for quite some time (Sanderson and Wilson, 1971). The reaction proceeds with excellent efficiency (Domen et al., 1990). The optimum pH for the reaction is alkaline, although good yield can be realized from pH 7—10. At high pH (9—10) the formation of the Schiff bases is more efficient and the yield of conjugation or immobilization reactions can be dramatically increased (Hornsey et al., 1986). 

Olsson and Blomberg [141] enantioseparated omeprazole and its metabolite 5-hydroxyomeprazole using open tubular capillary electrochromatography with immobilized avidin as chiral selector. The separation was performed with open tubular capillary electrochromatography. The protein avidin was used as the chiral selector. Avidin was immobilized by a Schiffs base type of reaction where the protein was via glutral-dehyde covalently bonded to the amino-modified wall of a fused-silica capillary, 50 /an i.d. Both racemates were baseline resolved. Resolution... 

Many other projects in the past dealt with the immobilization of the famous chelating salen ligand or salen metal complexes, respectively—the Mnm salen Schiff base complex is also known as Jacobsen s catalyst, and it is used, among others, in asymmetric epoxidation of olefinstttt—mainly onto the surface of MCM-41 and SBA-15. 

A popular method for immobilizing Schiff base complexes involves covalent linking. Sutra and Brunei (85) constructed a pentadentate Schiff base in the pores of a mesoporous silicate, starting from grafted aminopropyl groups. After complexation with Mn, material 5 catalyzed the epoxidation of cyclohexene with PhIO in 58% selectivity. 

Since the affinity of the Schiff base ligand for the Mn is extremely high, Mn immobilization is largely not an issue, provided that a reliable method is used to anchor the ligand irreversibly to a support. The real challenge is to create a catalyst with chemoselectivity and enantioselectivity that matches or even surpasses the results representing the homogeneous catalysts (87, 88). 

Oxidative coupling of phenols to give diphenoquinones is a particularly well-studied reaction. Simple O2 can be used as the oxidant, and the process is accelerated by Co porphyrins, phthalocyanines, and Schiff bases. The most frequently used immobilization technique is anion exchange, requiring... 

Whilst the chiral manganese complexes can epoxidize alkenes with high enantioselectivity (> 90% e.e.), they are not particularly stable. This instability is probably due to the easily oxidizable imine and phenoxide ligands on the complex. Attempts are currently being made to immobilize Schiff-bases in order to increase their stability in a similar manner to the metalloporphyrins discussed earlier. 

We observed no release after reductive amination of the Schiff base. The release of the residual amounts of protein after its cross-linking, which amounted to up to 70 % (Fig. 17), may only occur upon biodegradation of complexes in vivo. It is also possible that Amadori reactions could lead to a permanent, covalent immobilization of a part of the entrapped protein, only capable of release under matrix breakdown conditions. 

Benzodiazocine 264 was prepared through a 4-component Ugi reaction including a primary amine tethered to a BOC-protected internal amino nucleophile, followed by a postcondensation base-catalyzed cyclization. Thus, 2 equiv of aldehyde 262 were employed to promote Schiff base formation and a one-pot, double scavenging protocol with immobilized tosylhydrazine and di-isopropylethylamine removed both the excess aldehyde and any unreacted acid 261. The intermediate 263 was then subjected to treatment with TFA, followed by proton scavenging with resin bound morpholine, to promote cyclization to afford the eight-membered ring (Scheme 47) <2001TL4963>. 

Fig. 12 demonstrates that the novel technique allows direct reaction of the biomolecules with the silyl modified, aldehyde-functionalized surface to form Schiff base linkages between CHO and NH2 groups (route B), thus eliminating the use of a crosslinking agent like GA. Omitting details of the experimental procedures [11] the results of three different immobilization methods are displayed in Fig. 13 presenting a comparison with the physisorptive attachment of GOD on native, underivatized CPG.
