Quantitative parameters for the sequestering capacity of polyacrilates towards alkaline earth metal ions
2002
The complex formation constants of polyacrylic (PAA) ligands (1.4</=logN</=2.4, N=number of monomer units) with calcium and magnesium ions were determined in different ionic media at different ionic strengths, 0</=I</=1 mol l(-1), at t=25 degrees C. Experimental pH-metric data in the presence of Ca(2+) or Mg(2+) were firstly analysed in terms of apparent protonation constants, logK(H*), using the "three parameter model" proposed by Hogfeldt; differences in logK(H*), determined in different ionic media, were interpreted in terms of complex species formation. The only species present in the system M-PAA (M=Ca(2+) or Mg(2+)) is ML(2): attempts to find species of different stoichiometry were un…
CO2fixation and activation by metal complexes of small polyazacyclophanes
2001
The interaction of the cyclophanes 2,6,9,13-tetraaza[14]paracyclophane (L1) and 2,6,9,13-tetraaza[14]metacyclophane (L2) and of their Zn2+ and Cu2+ complexes with CO32− and its protonated forms is described. The actuation of the Cu2+–L2 system as an electrocatalyst for the reduction of CO2 to CO in water is advanced. Copyright © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
Diammine{N-[2-(hydroxyimino)propionyl]-N′-[2-(oxidoimino)propionyl]propane-1,3-diaminido-κ4N,N′,N′′,N′′′}iron(III)
2012
In the title compound, [Fe(C9H13N4O4)(NH3)2], the Fe(III) atom, lying on a mirror plane, is coordinated by four N atoms of a triply deprotonated tetra-dentate N-[2-(hy-droxy-imino)-propion-yl]-N'-[2-(oxidoimino)-propion-yl]propane-1,3-diaminide ligand in the equatorial plane and two N atoms of two ammonia mol-ecules at the axial positions in a distorted octa-hedral geometry. A short intra-molecular O-H⋯O hydrogen bond between the cis-disposed oxime O atoms stabilizes the pseudo-macrocyclic configuration of the ligand. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked by N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds into a three-dimensional network. The ligand has a mirror-plane symmetry. One of the methyl-ene groups of the pro…
Diaqua[5,10,15,20-tetrakis(4-chlorophenyl)porphyrinato-κ4N]iron(III) trifluoromethanesulfonate–4-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzaldehyde–water (1/1/2)
2014
In the title compound, [Fe(C44H24Cl4N4)(H2O)2](SO3CF3)·C8H8O3·2H2O, the FeIIIcation is chelated by the four N atoms of the deprotonated tetrakis(4-chlorotetraphenyl)porphyrin (TClPP) and further coordinated by two water molecules in a distorted octahedral geometry. In the crystal, the cations, anions, 4-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzaldehyde and water molecules of crystallization are linked by classical O—H...O hydrogen bonds and weak C—H...O and C—H...Cl hydrogen bonds into a three-dimensional supramolecular architecture. The crystal packing is further stabilized by weak C—H...π interactions involving pyrrole and benzene rings. π–π stacking between parallel benzene rings of adjacent 4-hydroxy-3-met…
Cover Picture: Direct CH Metalation with Chromium(II) and Iron(II): Transition-Metal Host / Benzenediide Guest Magnetic Inverse-Crown Complexes (Ang…
2009
Chromation and ferration are the latest additions to the concept of alkali-metal-mediated metalation, as described by J. Klett, R. E. Mulvey, and co-workers in their Communication on page 3317 ff. While the more electropositive sodium is essential for the reaction, it is the less electropositive chromium or iron that actually performs deprotonation of benzene. This novel reactivity can be likened to a game of chess in which the queen (Na) holds the king in check, while the knight (Cr, Fe) scores checkm(etal)ate.
Aliphatic polycarbonates based on carbon dioxide, furfuryl glycidyl ether, and glycidyl methyl ether: reversible functionalization and cross-linking.
2014
Well-defined poly((furfuryl glycidyl ether)-co-(glycidyl methyl ether) carbonate) (P((FGE-co-GME)C)) copolymers with varying furfuryl glycidyl ether (FGE) content in the range of 26% to 100% are prepared directly from CO2 and the respective epoxides in a solvent-free synthesis. All materials are characterized by size-exclusion chromatography (SEC), (1)H NMR spectroscopy, and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The furfuryl-functional samples exhibit monomodal molecular weight distributions with Mw/Mn in the range of 1.16 to 1.43 and molecular weights (Mn) between 2300 and 4300 g mol(-1). Thermal properties reflect the amorphous structure of the polymers. Both post-functionalization and…

2005
The 1H and 13C NMR signal assignment of the data of 13 scopadulane-type diterpenes is reported. It was based on one- and two- dimensional NMR techniques which included 1H, 13C, DEPT, HMQC and 1D NOE difference spectroscopy. Copyright © 2005 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
Substrate promiscuity in DNA methyltransferase M.PvuII. A mechanistic insight
2012
M.PvuII is a DNA methyltransferase from the bacterium Proteus vulgaris that catalyzes methylation of cytosine at the N4 position. This enzyme also displays promiscuous activity catalyzing methylation of adenine at the N6 position. In this work we use QM/MM methods to investigate the reaction mechanism of this promiscuous activity. We found that N6 methylation in M.PvuII takes place by means of a stepwise mechanism in which deprotonation of the exocyclic amino group is followed by the methyl transfer. Deprotonation involves two residues of the active site, Ser53 and Asp96, while methylation takes place directly from the AdoMet cofactor to the target nitrogen atom. The same reaction mechanism…
Transcriptional expression of selected genes associated with excretion of carboxylic acids from aci mutants of Saccharomyces cerevisiae
2013
Introduction: Saccharomyces cerevisiae is an excellent model organism for studies of transcriptional regulation of metabolic processes in other eukaryotic cells including human cells. Cellular acid-base balance can be disturbed in pathologic situations such as renal acidosis or cancer. The extracellular pH of malignant solid tumors is acidic in the range of 6.5-6.9. EG07 and EG37 aci mutants of Saccharomyces cerevisiae excessively excrete carboxylic acids to glucose-containing media or distilled water. The excreted acids are Krebs and/or glyoxylate cycle intermediates. The genes restoring the wild-type phenotype have function that does not easily explain theAci phenotype.Material/Methods: I…
Single-energy partial wave analysis for π0 photoproduction on the proton with fixed- t analyticity imposed
2019
High-precision data of the $\ensuremath{\gamma}p\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{0}p$ reaction from its threshold up to $W=1.9\phantom{\rule{0.28em}{0ex}}\mathrm{GeV}$ have been used in order to perform a single-energy partial-wave analysis with minimal model dependence. Continuity in energy was achieved by imposing constraints from fixed-$t$ analyticity in an iterative procedure. Reaction models were only used as starting point in the very first iteration. We demonstrate that, with this procedure, partial-wave amplitudes can be obtained which show only a minimal dependence on the initial model assumptions.
