Effects of marine 2-polyprenyl-1,4-hydroquinones on phospholipase A2 activity and some inflammatory responses.
1995
Three 2-polyprenyl-1,4-hydroquinone derivatives (2-heptaprenyl-1,4-hydroquinone: IS1, 2-octaprenyl-1,4-hydroquinone: IS2 and 2-[24-hydroxy]-octaprenyl-1,4-hydroquinone: IS3) isolated from the Mediterranean sponge Ircinia spinosula, were evaluated for effects on phospholipase A2 activity of different origin (Naja naja venom, human recombinant synovial fluid and bee venom), as well as on human neutrophil function and mouse ear oedema induced by 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA). IS1 interacted minimally with these responses. In contrast, IS2 and IS3 inhibited human recombinant synovial phospholipase A2 in a concentration-dependent manner, with minor effects on the rest of the enzymes…
A new approach for selection of Oenococcus oeni strains in order to produce malolactic starters.
2005
The lactic acid bacterium Oenococcus oeni, mainly responsible for malolactic fermentation (MLF), is used in new winery process as starter culture for direct inoculation. The difficulty to master MLF according to the wine led us to search a new approach to select effective O. oeni strains. Biochemical and molecular tests were performed in order to characterize three strains of O. oeni selected for malolactic starter elaboration. Malolactic and ATPase activities that appeared as a great interest in MLF were measured and the expression of a small heat shock protein Lo18 was evaluated by immunoblotting and real-time PCR. These results were correlated with the performances of strains in two red …
Bis(dimethylammonium) pentachloroantimonate(III), on the deformation of the octahedral coordination of Sb III
1998
The structure of the title compound, [NH2(CH3)2]2SbCl5, was determined at 295 and 85 K. It consists of polymeric (SbCl52−)n chains composed of deformed SbCl63− octahedra connected by corners and dimethylammonium cations. The temperature dependence of the Sb–Cl bond lengths is discussed. It is argued that the deformation of the octahedral coordination of the SbIII atom is caused by electrostatic interaction/hydrogen bonds.
On the geometry of the HO3 radical
2008
Abstract We discuss the equilibrium structure of the hydrogen trioxy radical (HO3). The CCSD(T) geometry at the approximate basis set limit, in conjunction with the geometry obtained using the CCSDT method and a moderate basis set, suggests an equilibrium HO–OO bond length of approximately 1.59 A.
Octahedral distortion caused by hydrogen bonding in tris(diethylammonium) hexachloridoantimonate(III).
2010
The factors influencing the distortion of inorganic anions in the structures of chloridoantimonates(III) with organic cations, in spite of numerous structural studies on those compounds, have not been clearly described and separated. The title compound, [(C(2)H(5))(2)NH(2)](3)[SbCl(6)], consisting of isolated distorted [SbCl(6)](3-) octahedra that have C(3) symmetry and [(C(2)H(5))(2)NH(2)](+) cations, unequivocally shows the role played by hydrogen bonding in the geometry variations of inorganic anions. The organic cations, which are linked to the inorganic substructure through N-H...Cl hydrogen bonds, are clearly responsible for the distortion of the octahedral coordination of Sb(III) in …
Diisopropyl [(2-hydroxy-1-naphthyl)methyl]phosphonate
2003
The bond lengths and angles in the title compound, C17H23PO4, are in accordance with anticipated values. There are two conformers in the asymmetric unit. They differ from each other in the orientation of the C and P tetrahedra. Analysis of the structure does not reveal any significant differences between the bond distances and angles of the molecules in the asymmetric unit. In the crystal structure, the conformers are linked by O—H⋯O=P and C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds.
New Measurements of the Beam Normal Spin Asymmetries at Large Backward Angles with Hydrogen and Deuterium Targets
2017
International audience; New measurements of the beam normal single spin asymmetry in the electron elastic and quasielastic scattering on the proton and deuteron, respectively, at large backward angles and at ⟨Q2⟩=0.22 (GeV/c)2 and ⟨Q2⟩=0.35 ( GeV/c)2 are reported. The experimentally observed asymmetries are compared with the theoretical calculation of Pasquini and Vanderhaeghen [Phys. Rev. C 70, 045206 (2004).PRVCAN0556-281310.1103/PhysRevC.70.045206]. The agreement of the measurements with the theoretical calculations shows a dominance of the inelastic intermediate excited states of the nucleon, πN and the Δ resonance. The measurements explore a new, important parameter region of the exc…
Dissipative lattice model with exact traveling discrete kink-soliton solutions: Discrete breather generation and reaction diffusion regime
1999
International audience; We introduce a nonlinear Klein-Gordon lattice model with specific double-well on-site potential, additional constant external force and dissipation terms, which admits exact discrete kink or traveling wave fronts solutions. In the nondissipative or conservative regime, our numerical simulations show that narrow kinks can propagate freely, and reveal that static or moving discrete breathers, with a finite but long lifetime, can emerge from kink-antikink collisions. In the general dissipative regime, the lifetime of these breathers depends on the importance of the dissipative effects. In the overdamped or diffusive regime, the general equation of motion reduces to a di…
One-Pot Synthesis and AFM Imaging of a Triangular Aramide Macrocycle
2014
Macrocyclizations in exceptionally good yields were observed during the self-condensation of N-benzylated phenyl p-aminobenzoates in the presence of LiHMDS to yield three-membered cyclic aramides that adopt a triangular shape. An ortho-alkyloxy side chain on the N-benzyl protecting group is necessary for the macrocyclization to occur. Linear polymers are formed exclusively in the absence of this Li-chelating group. A model that explains the lack of formation of other cyclic congeners and the demand for an N-(o-alkoxybenzyl) protecting group is providedon the basis of DFT calculations.High-resolution AFM imaging of the prepared molecular triangles on a calcite(10.4) surface shows individual …
Improving sensitivity in simultaneous determination of copper carboxylates by nonaqueous capillary electrophoresis
2005
Abstract A new method of nonaqueous capillary electrophoresis (NACE) with UV spectrophotometric detection was developed and optimized for the simultaneous determination of seven carboxylates (trans-1,2-diaminocyclohexane-N,N,N′,N′-tetraacetic acid (CDTA), diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA), ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA), N-(2-hydroxyethyl)ethylenediamine-N,N′,N′-triacetic acid (HEDTA), nitrilotriacetic acid (NTA), 1,3-diaminopropane-N,N,N′,N′-tetraacetic acid (PDTA) and triethylenetetraaminehexaacetic acid (TTHA)) as copper complexes. The method development was carried out by using a fused silica capillary. Background electrolyte (BGE) was optimized and the best separation a…
