Electrochemical and Spectroelectrochemical Properties of Free-Base Pyridyl- and N -Alkyl-4-Pyridylporphyrins in Nonaqueous Media
2015
International audience; Twelve structurally related pyridyl and meso-N-methylpyridylporphyrin derivatives are investigated electrochemically in different nonaqueous media. The UV/Vis spectrum of each newly investigated porphyrin was measured before and after electro-reduction and, based on this data, the site of electron transfer is proposed. An interaction occurs between the meso-pyridyl or meso-N-alkyl-4-pyridyl substituents and the porphyrin p-ring system, the magnitude of which depends upon the number of linked pyridyl or N-alkyl-4-pyridyl groups in the compound, the solvent, the supporting electrolyte, and/or other anions added to the solution.
Anaerobic biodegradation of solvents from the packaging industry: study and enhancement
2017
Con el desarrollo de la política ambiental de la Unión Europea, la calidad del aire en Europa ha mejorado considerablemente. No obstante, la contaminación atmosférica continúa siendo importante lo que hace necesario el desarrollo continuo de soluciones tecnológicas de depuración del aire para mitigar los problemas de calidad ambiental. Con objeto de preservar el medio ambiente y evitar problemas de salud pública, las emisiones industriales de disolventes están estrictamente reguladas por la normativa vigente en Europa, en el marco de la Directiva Europea de Emisiones Industriales (2010/75/EU). La industria del envase y embalaje es uno de los sectores más importantes en cuanto al uso de diso…
Hydrophobically Directed Aldol Reactions: Polystyrene-SupportedL-Proline as a Recyclable Catalyst for Direct Asymmetric Aldol Reactions in the Presen…
2007
The cover picture shows the aldol reaction between ketones and arylaldehydes carried out by using a polystyrene-supported L-proline catalyst. This material furnishes aldol products in high yields and stereoselectivities. Screening of solvents showed that these reactions take place only in the presence of water. This solvent effect, coupled with the high stereoselectivities observed, has been explained by the formation of a hydrophobic core in the inner surface of the resin with the hydrophilic proline moiety in the resin/water interface. Such a microenvironment promotes the aldol reaction and increases the stereoselectivity. Recycling investigations have shown that this material can be reus…
Conformational dynamics of full-length inducible human Hsp70 derived from microsecond molecular dynamics simulations in explicit solvent
2013
Human 70 kDa heat shock protein (hHsp70) is an ATP-dependent chaperone and is currently an important target for developing new drugs in cancer therapy. Knowledge of the conformations of hHsp70 is central to understand the interactions between its nucleotide-binding domain (NBD) and substrate-binding domain (SBD) and is a prerequisite to design inhibitors. The conformations of ADP-bound (or nucleotide-free) hHsp70 and ATP-bound hHsp70 was investigated by using unbiased all-atom molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of homology models of hHsp70 in explicit solvent on a timescale of .5 and 2.7 μs, respectively. The conformational heterogeneity of hHsp70 was analyzed by computing effective free-e…
trans-Bis(1H-benzimidazole-1-thione-κS)tetrachlorotellurium methanol disolvate
2002
The Te atom in the title complex, trans-[TeCl4(C6H4N2H2CS)2]·2CH4O or C16H20Cl4N4O2S2Te, occupies a special position at a crystallographic inversion centre and has an octahedral coordination formed by four chloro ligands and the S atoms of two benzimidazole–thione molecules. The hydrogen-bond system involving the disordered solvent methanol molecules links the tellurium complexes into the infinite two-dimensional aggregates in the crystal.
Pseudo-Planar Organic Heterojunctions by Sequential Printing of Quasi-Miscible Inks
2021
This work deals with the interfacial mixing mechanism of picoliter (pL)-scale droplets produced by sequential inkjet printing of organic-based inks onto ITO/PET surfaces at a moderately high Weber number (~101). Differently from solution dispensing processes at a high Bond number such as spin coating, the deposition by inkjet printing is strictly controlled by droplet velocity, ink viscosity, and surface tension. In particular, this study considers the interfacial mixing of droplets containing the most investigated donor/acceptor couple for organic solar cells, i.e., poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) and (6,6)-phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM), showing how low-viscosity and low-surfac…

Effect of buffer nature and concentration on the chromatographic performance of basic compounds in the absence and presence of 1-hexyl-3-methylimidaz…
2019
Abstract In reversed-phase liquid chromatography, the performance for basic compounds is affected by the interaction of the protonated (cationic) species with the anionic free silanols on the alkyl-bonded stationary phases. Using aqueous-organic mobile phases in the absence of additives, the retention may be too high, and the peaks be broad and asymmetric. The performance is improved by addition to the mobile phase of ionic liquids, from which 1-hexyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride ([C6MIm][Cl]) has especially good characteristics. A recent report has also revealed that the use of the phosphate system as buffer, at varying concentration and pH, may have a significant role in the chromatograph…
