Genotoxic Potential of N ‐(Benzothiazolyl)sulfonamide Copper(II) Complexes on Yeast Cells Transformed with YEGFP Expression Constructs Containing the…
2006
Four ternary complexes [Cu(L)2(phen)] where L is an N(benzothiazol-2-yl)sulfonamide derivative have been prepared and their ability to cleave DNA has been studied. The complexes were structurally characterized with the aid of single-crystal X-ray crystallography. Whereas the molecular structure of the [Cu(L1)2(phen)] (1) [HL1 = N-(6-chlorobenzothiazol-2-yl)benzenesulfonamide] and [Cu(L3)2(phen)] (3) [HL3 = N-(benzothiazol-2-yl)benzenesulfonamide] complexes can best be described as having a distorted squareplanar geometry, that of the [Cu(L4)2(phen)] (4) [HL4 = N(benzothiazol-2-yl)toluenesulfonamide] complex shows a strictly square-planar geometry. The [Cu(L2)2(phen)MeOH] (2) [HL2 = N-(6-chl…
Strong protective action of Copper(II) N-substituted sulfonamide complexes against reactive oxygen species.
2004
Copper(II) complexes of N -benzothiazolsulfonamides, [Cu( N -2-(5,6-dimethylbenzothiazole)toluenesulfonamidate) 2 (dmso) 2 ] ( 1 ), [Cu( N -2-(6-chlorobenzothiazole)benzenesulfonamidate) 2 (dmso) 2 ] ( 2 ) and [Cu( N -2-(6-chlorobenzothiazole)toluenesulfonamidate) 2 (dmso) 2 ] ( 3 ) with interesting protective properties against superoxide radicals have been prepared. The compounds have been characterized by X-ray diffraction and their chemical properties have been studied by spectroscopic methods. The crystal structure of 1 shows that the copper(II) is surrounded by two benzothiazole N atoms from the sulfonamide ligands and two O atoms from the dimethylsulfoxide molecules in a square plana…
Macromolecules in ordered media. II. A fluorescence study of the polymer-liposome association
1995
The interactions of poly (4-vinyl pyridine) with dimyristoylphosphatidic acid-based liposomes were studied in heterogeneous solution systems. The polymer was dispersed in aqueous buffer solutions of small unilamellar vesicles and after a suitable period of incubation to raise the equilibrium, the experiments has been conducted as a function of polymer concentration and temperature. According to the measurements of the steady-state fluorescence spectra, changes in the intensities as well as shifts in the emission peak wavelength, has served as raw data to accounting for the polymer-vesicle interactions. Quantitative evaluation of the interaction has been done using a simple associating model…
Chapter 2 Single molecule spectroscopy of multichromophoric dendrimers at room and liquid helium temperatures
2004
Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the single molecule spectroscopy of multichromophoric dendrimers at room and liquid helium temperatures. Single molecule spectroscopy has become an important tool for the optical study of the electronic interactions of proximate chromophores as the electronic interactions can be studied without averaging over the properties of an intrinsically heterogeneous ensemble. Single perylenemonoimide (PMI) chromophores are selectively addressed in the frequency domain within spatially isolated multichromophoric dendrimers, which are dispersed in a polymer film. Although the chromophores are interacting, they still can be addressed separately. This feature in …
2-Acylamino- and 2,4-bis(acylamino)pyrimidines as supramolecular synthons analysed by multiple non-covalent interactions. DFT, X-ray diffraction, and…
2012
Intermolecular interactions of ten 2-acylamino and 2,4-bis(acylamino)pyrimidines (7 of which are previously unknown) have been investigated by X-ray structural, quantum chemical (DFT), and NMR spectral methods. Especially the concentration dependencies of the (1)H NMR chemical shifts and titrations with other molecules capable of multiple hydrogen bonding provided useful information regarding their association via triple or quadruple hydrogen bonding, which is controlled by the conformational preferences of 2-acylamino- and 2,4-bis(acylamino)pyrimidines. On comparison of the properties of 2-acylamino- and 2,4-bis(acylamino)pyrimidines with the corresponding pyridines, an additional nitrogen…
Anisotropic diffusion in etched particle tracks studied by field gradient NMR
1994
Etched particle tracks produced after heavy ion irradiation of polymer foils are used as model systems to test the performance of NMR in a newly developed ultrahigh magnetic field gradient system. The stimulated NMR echo decay of molecules diffusing in the channels, formulated in terms of the self part of the intermediate scattering function, is anisotropic and yields the form factor of the channels.
Chemical Applications of Mössbauer Spectroscopy
2012
The Tutorial Lecture begins with a brief recapitulation of the hyperfine interactions and the relevant parameters observable in a Mossbauer spectrum. The main chapter with selected examples of chemical applications of Mossbauer spectroscopy follows and is subdivided into sections on: basic information on structure and bonding; switchable molecules (thermal spin transition in mono- and oligonuclear coordination compounds, light-induced spin transition, nuclear-decay-induced spin transition, spin transition in metallomesogens); mixed-valency in biferrocenes and other iron coordination compounds, and in an europium intermetallic compound; electron transfer in Prussian blue-analog complexes; mo…
Structure and dynamics of dibutylphosphate/n-propylamine ionic liquid: A multi-scale theoretical study
2021
Abstract Owing to the amphiphilic nature of their constituent molecules, binary mixtures of pure liquid surfactants are usually characterized by enhanced nano-segregation and thus can exhibit interesting transport properties and complex macroscopic behavior. In this ambit it was recently shown by Turco Liveri et al. (2018) that mixtures of short aliphatic chains compounds at room temperature, such as dibutyl phosphate (DBP) and n-propylamine (PA) liquids, display ionic liquid–like behavior ascribed to phosphate-to-amine proton transfer. To gain a detailed molecular picture of the system structure and dynamics and to understand the molecular mechanisms at the basis of the observed behavior, …
Quartz Crystal Microbalance for Bioanalytical Applications
2001
The quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) was first introduced as a mass sensor in gas phase and in vacuum. Since oscillator circuits capable of exciting shear vibrations of quartz resonators under liquid load have been developed, the QCM became accepted as a new powerful technique to monitor adsorption processes at solid/liquid interfaces in chemical and biological research rendering the method an attractive low-cost alternative for bioanalytic applications. In the last decade, adsorption of biomolecules on functionalized surfaces turned out to be one of the paramount applications of piezoelectric transducers comprising the interaction of DNA and RNA with complementary strands, specific recogn…
Photosensitive polyurethanes for optical record
2011
The method of synthesis of photosensitive polyurethanes polymers on glycerine, toluenediisocyanate and Disperse Red 1 base has been described. Two types of polymers with different amount of Disperse Red 1 fragments in macromolecules were compared. Films of the polymers were obtained from solutions in organic solvents on glass substrate. The dry film thickness was in the range of 3,5 - 4.5 μm. The transmission spectrums of the films were studied. Possibility of formation of side product in the process of synthesis was observed. The photobirefringence measurements of polymers films were performed. Surface relief grating (SRG) formation was observed during polarization holographic recording pr…
