Sum frequency generation (SFG) * Equal contributors. spectroscopy was used to deduce the orientation of the terminal methyl (CH3) group of self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) at the air–solid and air–liquid interfaces at surface concentrations as low as 1% protonated molecules in the presence of 99% deuterated molecules. The SFG spectra of octadecanethiol (ODT) and deuterated octadecanethiol (d37 ODT) SAMs on gold were used for analysis at the air–solid interface. However, the eicosanoic acid (EA) and deuterated EA (d39 EA) SAMs on the water were analyzed at the air–liquid interface. The tilt angle of the terminal CH3 group was estimated to be ∼39 ° for a SAM of 1% ODT : 99% d37 ODT, whereas the tilt angle of the terminal CH3 group of the 1% EA : 99% d39 EA monolayer was estimated to be ∼32 °. The reliability of the orientational analysis at low concentrations was validated by testing the sensitivity of the SFG spectroscopy. A signal-to-noise (S/N) ratio of ∼60 and ∼45 was obtained for the CH3 symmetric stretch (SS) of 1% ODT : 99% d37 ODT and 1% EA : 99% d39 EA, respectively. The estimated increase in S/N ratio values, as a measure of the sensitivity of the SFG spectroscopy, verified the capacity to acquire the SFG spectra at low concentrations of interfacial molecules under ambient conditions. Overall, the orientational analysis of CH3 SS vibrational mode was feasible at low concentrations of protonated molecules due to increased S/N ratio. In support, the improved S/N ratio on varying incident power density of the visible beam was also experimentally demonstrated.

Peptides H-TPPQC(Acm)FTV-NH2 (I) and H-VSVPC(Acm)QSASSAS-NH2 (III) were prepared by the solid phase method. Their oxidation with iodine afforded hexadecapeptide II, tetracosapeptide IV and eicosapeptide VI. The disulfide peptides II, IV and VI are designed according to the sequence of the processing loop in human cathepsin D. The purity of the peptides was determined by analytical HPLC and capillary zone electrophoresis. In addition to the expected [M + H]+ ion, FAB MS of HPLC-pure tetracosapeptide IV exhibited a molecular ion with the same relative molecular mass as the starting dodecapeptide III, in spite of clean HPLC separation of III and IV. Free-flow zone electrophoresis of IV separated peptide V, isomeric with III. Mass spectra, amino acid analysis and Edman sequencing revealed that the peptide V is a product of iodine-mediated S-->O shift of Acm group in the serine-rich peptide III. Daughter-ion spectra of protonated molecules, recorded after collision-induced dissociation, have shown that the Acm moiety is bonded to Ser 9 or Ser 10.
