Internal Structure and Dynamics of the Decamer D(ATGCAGTCAG) 2 In Li + -H 2 O Solution: A molecular Dynamics Simulation Study
2003
Molecular dynamics simulation of the decamer d(ATGCAGTCAG) 2 in aqueous solution, electroneutralized by Li + ions has been carried out. Emphasis is on the verification of the equilibrium conditions and the related structural and dynamical properties. Applicability of the kinetic part of Boltzmann's H function as a measure of thermodynamic equilibrium is tested. Overall structural stability has been confirmed by different RMSDs. Conformational and helicoidal parameters have been analyzed statistically and dynamically. Dynamical analysis reveals the existence of dynamical sub-states, which typically appear as abrupt changes from a mean level to another in the value of parameter. In statistica…

2021
Abstract Three new water soluble dimetallic copper(II) complexes, [Cu(H2O)5][Cu2(cpdp)(µ-O2As(CH3)2)]2Br2·13.83H2O·0.67CH3OH (1), [Cu2(Hcpdp)(µ-SO4)]·5H2O (2) and [Cu2(cpdp)(µ-pz)]·16H2O (3) (H3cpdp = N,N′-Bis[2-carboxybenzomethyl]-N,N′-Bis[2-pyridylmethyl]-1,3-diaminopropan-2-ol; (CH3)2AsO2− = cacodylate; SO42− = sulfate; pz− = pyrazolate) have been successfully synthesized and characterized for the investigation of coordination/binding aspects with biologically significant monosaccharide, d -glucosamine. Preparation of 1, 2 and 3 has been achieved by carrying out reaction of H3cpdp with stoichiometric quantities of CuCl2·2H2O/NaO2As(CH3)2·3H2O, CuSO4·5H2O and CuCl2·2H2O/1H-pyrazole, respe…
Sequestration of organometallic compounds by natural organic matter. binding of trimethyltin(IV) by fulvic and alginic acids
2006
The binding capacity of fulvic and alginic acids towards trimethyl tin(IV) cation was quantitatively determined in order to evaluate the sequestering ability of toxic organometallic compounds by natural organic matter. Investigations were performed in the pH range of natural waters (5–8.5) where the carboxylate groups, largely present in both sequestering agents, are the main binding sites. A chemical interaction model, according to which both the protonation of polyelectrolyte ligands and the hydrolysis of the organotin cation in NaCl aqueous solution were considered, was used to define the speciation of the systems under investigation. Measurements performed at different ionic strength va…
Effect of Large Changes in Temperature and Pressure on the Thermodynamic Properties of Micellization and on the Distribution Constant of a Polar Solu…
1996
Density measurements of pentanol (PentOH)−dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide (DTAB)−water mixtures as functions of both alcohol and surfactant (mS) concentrations were carried out at 0.1 MPa from 45 to 75 °C and at 19 MPa from 25 to 130 °C. The standard (infinite dilution) partial molar volumes and expansibilities of DTAB in water and the corresponding properties in the micellar phase were calculated from the experimental data. As far as PentOH in DTAB micellar solutions is concerned, with the exception of the standard partial molar volume (V°R) data at 130 °C and 19 MPa, all the V°R vs mS trends are monotonic curves with mS. The data of V°R as a function of mS were treated by means of an equ…
Thermodynamic parameters for the formation of glycine complexes with magnesium(II), calcium(II), lead(II), manganese(II), cobalt(II), nickel(II), zin…
1995
Abstract Protonation constants and Mg 2+ , Ca 2+ , Pb 2+ , Mn 2+ -, Co 2+ , Ni 2+ , Cu 2+ , Zn 2+ and Cd 2+ glycine complex formation constants have been determined in different aqueous media at different temperatures. Salt effects are explained by a complex formation model which takes into account the formation of weak species. From the temperature dependence of the formation constants, thermodynamic parameters ΔH θ (and in some cases ΔC θ p ) have been obtained. A rigorous analysis of literature data, together with experimental findings, allows recommended formation parameters, in the ranges 0 ≤ I e ≤ 1 mol l −1 ( I e is the effective ionic strength) and 5°C ≤ T ≤ 45°C, to be obt…
Binding between (Ethylene Oxide)13−(Propylene Oxide)30−(Ethylene Oxide)13 and Sodium Decanoate. Volume, Enthalpy, and Heat Capacity Studies
2002
Volume, enthalpy, and heat capacity of transfer (ΔYt) of (ethylene oxide)13−(propylene oxide)30−(ethylene oxide)13 (L64), at some concentrations, from water to the aqueous sodium decanoate (NaDec) solutions as functions of the surfactant concentration (mS) were determined at 298 K. The copolymer was studied in both the unassociated and associated forms. For a given L64 concentration (mC), the ΔYt vs mS profiles for the volume and the enthalpy are equal but different from that of the heat capacity because the latter contains also the relaxation terms. The experimental data were analyzed by assuming the distribution of L64 between the aqueous and the micellar phases and the shift of micelliza…
Heat Capacity of Transfer of (Ethylene oxide)13-(propylene oxide)30-(ethylene oxide)13 from Water to the Aqueous Anionic Surfactant Solutions at 298 …
2004
Heat capacities of transfer (ACpt) of unimeric (ethylene oxide)(13)-(propylene oxide)(30)-(ethylene oxide)(13) from water to the aqueous surfactant solutions as functions of the surfactant concentrations (m(S)) were determined at 298 K. The surfactants investigated are sodium hexanoate, sodium heptanoate, sodium octanoate, sodium undecanoate, and sodium dodecanoate. For short alkyl chain surfactants, the profiles of the DeltaCp(t) versus ms curves show maxima and minima; for long alkyl chain surfactants, the maximum becomes sharper and moved to lower ms values whereas the minimum tends to disappear. These experimental trends are different from those of the enthalpy in agreement with the fac…
Thermodynamics of Solubilization of Pentanol in Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate-Dodecyldimethylamine Oxide Mixed Micelles
1994
Abstract Heat capacity and density measurements of pentanol (PeOH)-sodium dodecyl sulfate (NaDS)-dodecyldimethylamine oxide-water mixtures were carried out at 0.03 m PeOH as a function of the total surfactants concentration (mc) at different ratios (XNaDS). From experimental data, the apparent molar volumes (VΦ,R) and heat capacities (CΦ,R) of PeOH in the surfactants mixture solutions were calculated. As a general feature, at a given mixture composition, VΦ,R increases monotonically with mt as observed in pure surfactants. In the cases of XNaDS = 0.1 and 0.3, VΦ,R drops at about 0.1 and 0.15 mt respectively. The decreasing CΦ,R VS mt curve shows peculiarities which were ascribed to the pres…
Thermodynamics of transfer of some nitroalkanes from aqueous to dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide micellar phases
1988
Abstract The enthalpies of mixing of some aqueous n-nitroalkane solutions with dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide micellar solutions were determined. The experimental data were treated by using a previously reported approach giving the enthalpies of transfer of solute from the aqueous to the micellar phases and the distribution constant of solute between the two phases at the same time. From these, the standard thermodynamic quantities of transfer (ΔtrfG°, ΔtrfH° and ΔtrfS°) are derived. In order to study the effect of the nature of both the solvent and the head group of solute, these properties are compared with those from water to octane and with those of alcohols and nitriles from aqueous …
Compounds of tungsten(VI) with citric acid: A spectrophotometric, polarimetric and hydrogen-1, carbon-13 N.M.R. study of the formation and interconve…
1986
Tungsten(VI)-citrate complexes, which occur in aqueous solution, were studied by polarimetric and absorbance measurements. The pH of the medium is the principal variable controlling complex formation and interconversion equilibria. At high pH (>6), the stable complexes are monomers with 1∶2 and 1∶1 stoichiometry, depending on the tungsten(VI)-citrate ratio, while at lower pH two different dinuclear complexes are formed. The intervals of existence of these species with the pH, the number of equivalents of acid necessary for their formation, as well as the conditional stability constant, have also been calculated. The structure of these compounds have been investigated by1H and13C-n.m.r. spec…
