Gas phase chromatography of halides of elements 104 and 105
1992
On-line isothermal gas phase chromatography was used to study halides of261104 (T1/2=65 s) and262,263105 (T1/2=34 s and 27 s) produced an atom-at-a time via the reactions248Cm(18O, 5n) and249Bk(18O, 5n, 4n), respectively. Using HBr and HCl gas as halogenating agents, we were able to produce volatile bromides and chlorides of the above mentioned elements and study their behavior compared to their lighter homologs in Groups 4 or 5 of the periodic table. Element 104 formed more volatile bromide than its homolog Hf. In contrast, element 105 bromides were found to be less volatile than the bromides of the group 5 elements Nb and Ta. Both 104 and Hf chlorides were observed to be more volatile tha…
Gas-liquid chromatographic analyses
1984
A mixture of all nine chlorinated 4-hydroxybenzaldehydes and the parent homologue was separated on a non-polar SE-30 capillary column using various isothermal and temperature-programmed operating conditions. The relative retention data for the compounds are given and the retention indices together with the retention index increments for each position of chlorine substitution are examined. The retention order 3-Cl<parent<2,5-di-Cl<2,3-di-Cl<3,5-di-Cl<2-Cl<2,3,5-tri-Cl<2,3,6-tri-Cl<2,6-di-Cl<tetra-Cl isomer obtained indicates that the effect of the position of substitution on the retention behaviour is greater than that of the number of chlorine atoms. The retention is maximal with 2-Cl and 2…
Retention increments of isomeric chlorobenzenes
1983
The chlorobenzene isomers are used extensively as intermediates in a wide range of chemical products. More recently their determination in environmental situations has become of considerable importance and chromatographic procedures have been widely reported for their determination in both trace and major amounts. There are over 220 publications in which gas chromatography (GC) has been applied to the analysis of chlorobenzene. However, over 60 o/o of these works refer to the separation of only one isomer. Relatively few publications’-8 consider all the isomers, although the use of both capillary3’ and packedcolumns with polar and non-polar stationary phases has been reported. Temperature p…
Gas—liquid chromatographic analyses
1985
Abstract The gas chromatographic retention behaviour of methylethyl, 1-methylpropyl, 2-methylpropyl, 1,2-dimethylpropyl, 1-methylbutyl and 3-methylbutyl esters of benzoic and o-, m- and p-chlorobenzoic acids on low-polarity (SE-30) and polar (OV-351) capillary columns under several temperature-programmed and isothermal conditions is reported. The retention data and the Kovats retention indices for all 24 components are given and the separation of a complex mixture is discussed. The retention index increments have been used to examine the effects of chain branching and chlorine substitution. The results are compared with those for n-alkyl benzoates and monochlorobenzoates.
Combined spectroscopic and theoretical analysis of the binding of a water-soluble perylene diimide to DNA/RNA polynucleotides and G-quadruplexes.
2021
We present here a combined spectroscopic and theoretical analysis of the binding of N,N’-bis(2-(1-piperazino)ethyl)-3,4,9,10-perylenetetracarboxylic acid diimide dichloride (PZPERY) to different biosubstrates. Absorbance titrations and circular dichroism experiments, melting studies and isothermal calorimetry (ITC) titrations reveal a picture where the binding to natural double-stranded DNA is very different from that to double and triple-stranded RNAs (poly(A)∙poly(U) and poly(U)∙poly(A)⁎poly(U)). As confirmed also by the structural and energetic details clarified by density functional theory (DFT) calculations, intercalation occurs for DNA, with a process driven by the combination of aggr…
Cytotoxic hydrophilic iminophosphorane coordination compounds of d8 metals. Studies of their interactions with DNA and HSA
2012
The synthesis and characterization of a new water-soluble N,N-chelating iminophosphorane ligand TPAN-C(O)-2-NC(5)H(4) (N,N-IM) (1) and its d(8) (Au(III), Pd(II) and Pt(II)) coordination complexes are reported. The structures of cationic [AuCl(2)(N,N-IM)]ClO(4) (2) and neutral [MCl(2)(N,N-IM)] M=Pd (3), Pt(4) complexes were determined by X-ray diffraction studies or by means of density-functional calculations. While the Pd and Pt compounds are stable in mixtures of DMSO/H(2)O over 4 days, the gold derivative (2) decomposes quickly to TPAO and previously reported neutral gold(III) compound [AuCl(2)(N,N-H)] 5 (containing the chelating N,N-fragment HN-C(O)-2-NC(5)H(4)). The cytotoxicities of co…
Hemocyanin conformational changes associated with SDS-induced phenol oxidase activation.
2007
The enzymatic activity of phenoloxidase is assayed routinely in the presence of SDS. Similar assay conditions elicit phenoloxidase activity in another type 3 copper protein, namely hemocyanin, which normally functions as an oxygen carrier. The nature of the conformational changes induced in type 3 copper proteins by the denaturant SDS is unknown. This comparative study demonstrates that arthropod hemocyanins can be converted from being an oxygen carrier to a form which exhibits phenoloxidase activity by incubation with SDS, with accompanying changes in secondary and tertiary structure. Structural characterisation, using various biophysical methods, suggests that the micellar form of SDS is …
Schmelz- und kristallisationserscheinungen bei makromolekularen substanzen. VI. Ergebnisse der röntgenklein- und weitwinkeluntersuchungen an polyglyk…
1962
Rontgenographische Untersuchungen ergaben, das die Kleinwinkelperiode im Verlauf der Nachkristallisation mit zunehmendem Kristallisationsgrad abnimmt. Ferner steigt nach dem Erhitzen einer bei 140°C auskristallisierten Probe auf eine hohere Temperatur die Kleinwinkelperiode zunachst stark an und nimmt wahrend der anschliesenden Neukristallisation wieder etwas ab. Die Deutung dieser experimentellen Ergebnisse wird diskutiert, wobei der Einflus des Bausteinfaktors berucksichtigt wird. Weitwinkeluntersuchungen zeigten, das bei der isothermen Kristallisation der Kristallisationsgrad zwar zunimmt, die Ordnung in Kettenrichtung aber nicht verbessert wird; diese hangt offenbar nur von der Kristall…
Molecular association in low-temperature and high-pressure polymorphs of 1,1,1,2-tetrachloroethane
2010
Interactions and aggregation of 1,1,1,2-tetrachloroethane molecules, Cl3CCH2Cl, have been investigated at low temperature and high pressure. Isobaric and isochoric crystallizations led to two polymorphs, characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The low-temperature polymorph α is monoclinic, space group C2/c, with molecules orientationally disordered in two sites at the temperature independent 70:30 rate. In isothermal conditions (295 K) 1,1,1,2-tetrachloroethane freezes at 0.73 GPa. The high-pressure polymorph β is monoclinic, space group P21/c, with the molecules fully ordered. The molecular aggregation at varied thermodynamic conditions results from the interplay of halogen inte…
(DIS)Assembly and Structural Stability of mtHsp60 and its Precursor NaÏve Form
2015
Heat shock protein 60kDa is a molecular chaperone (GroEL human homolog) that assists protein folding in mitochondria (mtHsp60). It is synthesized in the cell cytoplasm as a higher molecular weight precursor form (p-mtHsp60) containing a N-terminal targeting sequence, that is cleaved after import into the mitochondrial matrix [1, 2].It has been established, and demonstrated by various techniques, Hsp60 can accumulate in the cytosol, in various pathological conditions (i.e., cancer and chronic inflammatory diseases). The cytosolical Hsp60 accumulation mechanism may occur with or without mitochondrial release concomitantly, so that in the cytosol the two types of 60 kDa chaperonin proteins, (m…
