Enhancing performance of α‐diiminonickel precatalyst for ethylene polymerization by substitution with the 2,4‐bis(4,4'‐dimethoxybenzhydryl)‐6‐methylp…

2020

High activities in ethylene polymerization predetermine α‐diiminonickel precatalysts for potential industrial applications. In our study, we have synthesized and characterized a series of unsymmetrical 1‐(2,4‐bis(4,4′‐dimethoxybenzhydryl)‐6‐MeC6H2N)‐2‐arylimino‐acenaphthylene nickel(II) halides. The single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction study of representative compounds reveals distorted tetrahedral geometry. On activation with either Me2AlCl or modified methylaluminoxane, these nickel complexes exhibit high activities of the order of 106 g of PE (mol of Ni)−1 h−1 and produce polyethylene of generic application characterized by high molecular weight, narrow molecular weight distribution, and mod…

Influence of cyclization and acyl substitution on the inotropic effects of adenine nucleotides.

1973

This study was designed to further elucidate relevance and mechanism of the positive inotropic action of cyclic N6-2′-O-dibutyryl-AMP (DB-c-AMP). For this purpose the effects of cyclic N6-monobutyryl-AMP (N6-MB-c-AMP), noncyclic N6-2′-O-3′-O-tributyryl-5′-AMP (TB-AMP), c-AMP, adenosine and various adenine nucleotides (ATP, ADP, AMP) on myocardial contractile force (CF) were investigated and compared to that of DB-c-AMP. The experiments were performed on isolated, electrically driven (frequency 2 Hz) rat left auricles, i.e. on a preparation in which DB-c-AMP consistently produced positive inotropic effects. The following results were obtained: From the failure of non-cyclic TB-AMP to increas…

Simple Facts Concerning Nambu Algebras

1998

A class of substitution equations arising in the extension of Jacobi identity for $n$-gebras is studied and solved. Graded bracket and cohomology adapted to the study of formal deformations are presented. New identities in the case of Nambu-Lie algebras are proved. The triviality in the Gerstenhaber sense of certain deformed n-skew-symmetric brackets, satisfying the Leibniz rule with respect to a star-product, is shown for n≥ 3.

On the Nucleophilic Reactivity of 4,6-Dichloro-5-nitrobenzofuroxan with Some Aliphatic and Aromatic Amines: Selective nucleophilic substitution

2020

The reaction rates for the nucleophilic aromatic substitution of 4,6-dichloro-5-nitrobenzofuroxan 1 with eight aliphatic amines (characterized by very different basicities/ nucleophilicities) and three anilines have been measured in both methanol and toluene. The obtained rates have been related to the basicity (pKaH in water and Kb in benzene) or nucleophilicity (N Mayr constants) of the tested amines. The whole of the obtained kinetic data has furnished useful information on the high nucleophilic reactivity of benzofuroxan derivatives, which has been related essentially to two factors: the high electron-drawing ability/power of the condensed furoxan ring and the low aromatic character of …

A DFT mechanistic study of the synthesis of trans-Z,Z-[PtIICl(NH3){HN = C(NH2)Me}2]Cl from addition of NH3 to trans-[PtIICl2(N CMe)2]

2020

Abstract The reaction mechanism between trans-[PtIICl2(N CMe)2] and ammonia to give trans-Z,Z-[PtIICl(NH3){HN = C(NH2)Me}2]Cl has been studied at DFT level. Results showed that, in dichloromethane solution at 263.15 K, the chloride substitution by the ammonia on platinum is a process kinetically more favoured than the ammonia nucleophilic addition to the nitrile of about three orders of magnitude, and hence the nucleophilic addition reaction occurs after. Finally, both nucleophilic addition steps are geometrically driven to give products in the E configuration even if the final products were experimentally observed in the Z configuration. For trans-Z,Z-[PtIICl(NH3)(N CMe)2, the isomerizatio…

eNOS S-nitrosylates β-actin on Cys374 and regulates PKC-θ at the immune synapse by impairing actin binding to profilin-1.

2017

The actin cytoskeleton coordinates the organization of signaling microclusters at the immune synapse (IS); however, the mechanisms involved remain poorly understood. We show here that nitric oxide (NO) generated by endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) controls the coalescence of protein kinase C-¿ (PKC-¿) at the central supramolecular activation cluster (c-SMAC) of the IS. eNOS translocated with the Golgi to the IS and partially colocalized with F-actin around the c-SMAC. This resulted in reduced actin polymerization and centripetal retrograde flow of ß-actin and PKC-¿ from the lamellipodium-like distal (d)-SMAC, promoting PKC-¿ activation. Furthermore, eNOS-derived NO S-nitrosylated ß-…

Control of the spin state by charge and ligand substitution: two-step spin crossover behaviour in a novel neutral iron(II) complex

2014

The influence of the charge and steric hindrance on the spin state of a series of four monomeric Fe-II complexes derived from the tridentate tigands 2-(1H-benzoimidazol-2-yl)-1,10-phenanthroline (Hphenbi) and 2-(1H-benzoimidazol-2-yl-9-methyl-1,10-phenanthroline (Hmphenbi) and their deprotonated forms (phenbi(-), mphenbi(-)) are investigated. The crystal structure and magnetic properties show that [Fe(Hphenbi)(2)](BF4)(2)center dot 1.5C(6)H(5)NO(2)center dot H2O (1) and its neutral form [Fe(phenbi)(2)]center dot 2CHCl(3)center dot H2O (2) are low-spin complexes at 400 K due to the strong ligand field imparted by the terpyridine-like tigand. In contrast, the steric hindrance induced by the m…

A Simple Phosphine–Diolefin‐Promoted Copper‐Catalysed N‐Arylation of Pyrazoles with (Hetero)aromatic Bromides: The Case of Chloroarenes Revisited

2012

A molecularly defined new phosphine–diolefin cubane copper pre-catalyst used at 1.25 mol % under mild conditions promotes the coupling of pyrazoles to functionalised aryl and heteroaryl bromides, which hold a variety of functional groups. This versatile phosphorus-based system was thus successfully used, under identical conditions, for the coupling of a large scope of heteroaromatics to selectively produce pyridinyl- and pyrimidinyl-pyrazoles, as well as several novel furyl-, thienyl- and thiazolyl-substituted pyrazoles. The careful investigation of coupling with the analogous aryl and heteroaryl chlorides clearly indicated that for specifically activated chloroarenes a direct nucleophilic …
