Magnetic resonance imaging of the migration of neuronal precursors generated in the adult rodent brain
2006
Neural progenitor cells (NPCs) reside within the subventricular zone (SVZ) in rodents. These NPCs give rise to neural precursors in adults that migrate to the olfactory bulb (OB) along a well-defined pathway, the rostral migratory stream (RMS). Here we demonstrate that these NPCs can be labeled, in vivo, in adult rats with fluorescent, micron-sized iron oxide particles (MPIOs), and that magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can detect migrating neural precursors carrying MPIOs along the RMS to the OB. Immunohistochemistry and electron microscopy indicated that particles were inside GFAP(+) neural progenitor cells in the SVZ, migrating PSA-NCAM(+) and Doublecortin(+) neural precursors within the …
Determination of cyanide by a flow injection analysis-atomic absorption spectrometric method
1999
A new flow injection analysis (FIA) procedure is proposed for the indirect atomic absorption spectrometric determination of cyanide. The FIA manifold is based on the insertion of the sample into a distilled water carrier, then the sample flows through a solid-phase reactor filled with silver iodide entrapped in polymeric resin beads. The calibration graph is linear over the range 0.2-6.0 mg l-1 of cyanide (correlation coefficient 0.9974), the detection limit is 0.1 mg l-1, the sample throughput is 193 h-1 and the RSD is 0.8%. The method is simple, quick and more selective than other published FIA procedures. The reproducibility obtained by using different solid-phase reactors and solutions …
Cyanide binding and heme cavity conformational transitions in **Drosophila melanogaster** hexacoordinate hemoglobin
2006
The reason for the presence of hemoglobin-like molecules in insects, such as Drosophila melanogaster, that live in fully aerobic environments has yet to be determined. Heme endogenous hexacoordination (where HisE7 and HisF8 axial ligands to the heme Fe atom are both provided by the protein) is a recently discovered mechanism proposed to modulate O-2 affinity in hemoglobins from different species. Previous results have shown that D. melanogaster hemoglobin 1 (product of the glob1 gene) displays heme endogenous hexacoordination in both the ferrous and ferric states. Here we present kinetic data characterizing the exogenous cyanide ligand binding process, and the three-dimensional structure (a…
N-protonated 2-pyridylnickel(II) complexes insertion of isocyanides into the nickel2-pyridyl bond
1987
The reaction of the binuclear complex [NiCl(μ-2-py)(PPh3)]2 (μ-2-py = μ-C5H4N-C2,N) with the phosphines L (L = PPh3, PMePh2, PMe2Ph or PEt3) or dppe (= 1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane) in the presence of HClO4 yields the N-protonated 2-pyridyl derivatives trans-[NiCl(2-pyH)(L)2]ClO4 or [NiCl(2-pyH)(dppe)] ClO4 (2-pyH = C5H5N-C2) with a square-planar coordination around the nickel(II) center. These products are largely associated through hydrogen bonding between the NH group and the perchlorate anion, both in the solid and in chlorinated solvents. The configuration in solution has been studied by 1H and 31P NMR spectroscopy. In the complex trans-[NiCl(2-pyH)(PMe2Ph)2]ClO4, the planar 2-pyH…
An efficient and practical synthesis of [2-11C]indole via superfast nucleophilic [11C]cyanation and RANEY® Nickel catalyzed reductive cyclization
2015
A rapid method for the synthesis of carbon-11 radiolabeled indole was developed using a sub-nanomolar quantity of no-carrier-added [(11)C]cyanide as radio-precursor. Based upon a reported synthesis of 2-(2-nitrophenyl)acetonitrile (), a highly reactive substrate 2-nitrobenzyl bromide () was evaluated for nucleophilic [(11)C]cyanation. Additionally, related reaction conditions were explored with the goal of obtaining of highly reactive 2-(2-nitrophenyl)-[1-(11)C]acetonitrile () while inhibiting its rapid conversion to 2,3-bis(2-nitrophenyl)-[1-(11)C]propanenitrile (). Next, a RANEY® Nickel catalyzed reductive cyclization method was utilized for synthesizing the desired [2-(11)C]indole with h…
SYNTHESIS, LASER-RAMAN, INFRARED AND PROTON MAGNETIC RESONANCE SPECTRA OF (CH3)3PtX2- 3 IONS (X = Cl−, Br−) AND (CH3)3Ptiv ISOCYANIDE COMPLEXES
1976
Abstract The novel ionic complexes [(C6H5)4As]2 [(CH3)3PtX3](X = Cl− and Br−) and [(CH3)3Pt(bipy)L]+[B(C6H5)4]− (bipy = 2,2′-bipyridine, L = aliphatic and aromatic isocyanide) have been prepared. The structure of the complex ions has been inferred from Laser-Raman and infrared spectra in the solid state and 1H NMR in solution. These data are consistent with a facial configuration of the organometallic moiety. Trends in vibrational frequencies ν(Pt-C) and ν(Pt-X) indicate a “trans” influence sequence for the ligands, which in the case of (CH3)3PtX2- 3 is related with that found for (CH3)2AuX− 2 ions.
Inter-string arrays of bimetallic assemblies with alternative Cu2+-Cl-Cu2+ and Cu-NC-M (M = Co3+, Fe+3, Cr+3) bridges: syntheses, crystal structure, …
2004
Three bimetallic assemblies with alternate homometallic bridges through chloride ligands and heterometallic bridges through cyanide ligands of formula [(323)(2)Cu(2)(Cl)M(CN)(6)](n).2n(H(2)O), where 323 = N,N'-bis(3-aminopropyl)ethylenediamine and M = Co(3+) for 1, Fe(3+) for 2, and Cr(3+) for 3, were synthesized. They have been characterized structurally, analytically, spectroscopically, and magnetically. All three assemblies crystallize in the monoclinic system in the same space group P2(1)/n, with a = 11.642(2) A, b = 10.285(3) A, c = 13.622(2) A, beta = 95.69(3) degrees, V = 1623.1(6) A(3), and Z = 4 for 1; a = 11.681(4) A, b = 10.315(3) A, c = 13.567(5) A, beta = 95.62(3) degrees, V = …
Low-Dimensional 3d–4f Complexes Assembled by Low-Spin [FeIII(phen)(CN)4]− Anions
2013
The synthesis, crystal structure, and magnetic properties of four new mixed 3d-4f complexes with formulas [{FeIII(phen)(CN)4} 4Gd2 III(bpym)(NO3) 2(H2O)4]·2CH3CN· 2H2O}n (1), [{FeIII(phen)(CN)4} 4Tb2 III(bpym)(H2O) 8]·(NO3)2·2CH3CN} n (2), [{FeIII(phen)(CN)4}4Sm III(bpym)(NO3)2(H2O) 5]·2CH3CN}n (3), and [{Fe III(phen)(CN)4}2Pr2 III(bpym)(NO3)4(H2O) 2]n (4) (phen = 1,10-phenanthroline and bpym = 2,2′-bipyrimidine) are discussed here. Compounds 1-3 are isomorphous and their structure consists of neutral ladder-like motifs where the rungs are made up by bpym-bridged dilanthanide(III) cations and the rods are defined by [Fe(phen)(CN)4]- units adopting a bis-monodentate coordination mode through…
A Novel One-Dimensional Cyano-Bridged Ni3Fe2 Ferromagnet Constructed from Bimetallic Molecular Squares
2003
Reaction of the complex [Ni(rac-CTH)](2+) (rac-CTH = rac-5,7,7,12,14,14-hexamethyl-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane) with [Fe(CN)(6)](3-) leads to a novel cyano-bridged Ni(3)Fe(2) complex, [[Ni(rac-CTH)](3)[Fe(CN)(6)](2)](4). The structure consists of an alternating arrangement of [Fe(CN)(6)Ni(rac-CTH)](2) squares and trans-planar [Ni(rac-CTH)](2+) units bridged by cyanide groups to give a neutral 1D chain running along the a axis. Magnetic measurements reveal the occurrence of ferromagnetic coupling between Fe(III) and Ni(II) ions and 3D magnetic ordering at 3 K due to interchain interactions. Canting of the moments is inferred from the low value of the magnetization of the saturation bel…
Phosphororganische Verbindungen, 111. Phosphin‐ und Thiophosphinsäure‐cyanide als fluoreszierende SH‐selektive Reagenzien
1985
Die fluoreszierenden Thiophosphinsaure-cyanide 7 und 8 sind SH-selektive, die analogen Thio-phosphinsaure-chloride 5 und 6 sind im allgemeinen NH2-selektiv (Ausnahme: Cystein-methylester, der S-thiophosphinoyliert wird). Die auf diesem Wege erhaltenen fluoreszierenden Dithio-phosphinsaureester, z.B. 11–14, sind fur die Analyse interessant. Durch Fluorolyse der Dithio-phosphinsaureester konnen die Thiole regeneriert werden. Diphenylthiophosphinsaure-cyanid verdient als SH-selektive Schutzgruppe fur Synthesen den Vorzug vor 7 und 8.
