RESUMO

1-Pyrrolines are important intermediates of active natural products, such as the 2,5-dialkyl-1-pyrroline derivatives found in fire ant venoms. Here, 5-hexyl-2-methyl-3,4-dihydro-2H-pyrrole was synthesized by the enzymatic transamination/cyclization of 2,5-undecadione, and enantiodifferenciation was successfully achieved by capillary electrophoresis with sulfobutyl ether-ß-cyclodextrin as the chiral selector. The rationale of the enantiomeric discrimination was based on the results of a docking simulation that revealed the higher affinity of (S)-5-hexyl-2-methyl-3,4-dihydro-2H-pyrrole for the sulfobutyl ether-ß-cyclodextrin.

RESUMO

3D printing technologies have been considered an important technology due to the ease manufacturing of objects, freedom of design, waste minimization, and fast prototyping. In chemistry, this technology potentializes the fabrication of conductive electrodes in large scale for sensing applications. Herein, we reported the modification of a 3D printed graphene electrode with Prussian blue. The modified electrode (3DGrE/PB) was characterized by microscopy (SEM and AFM) and spectroscopic techniques, and its electrochemical properties were compared to the traditional electrodes: glassy carbon, gold, and platinum. The 3DGrE/PB was used in the sensing of hydrogen peroxide in real-world samples of milk and mouthwash, and the results obtained according to the technique of batch-injection analysis were satisfactory for the concentration range typically found in such samples. Thus, 3DGrE/PB can be used as a new platform for sensing of molecular targets.
