Synthesis, Structure, and Magnetic Properties of [(S)-[PhCH(CH3)N(CH3)3]][Mn(CH3CN)2/3Cr(ox)3]·(CH3CN)_(solvate), a 2D Chiral Magnet Containing a Qua…
2008
The synthesis, structure, and magnetic properties of a novel oxalate-based bimetallic magnet obtained by using the chiral (S)-trimethyl-(1-phenyl-ethyl)-ammonium, ((S)-[PhCH(CH3)N(CH3)3](+)), cation as template is reported. This compound can be formulated as [(S)-[PhCH(CH3)N(CH3)3]][Mn(CH3CN)2/3Cr(ox)3] x (CH3CN)_(solvate), and it crystallizes in the chiral trigonal space group P3. It shows a distorted two-dimensional honeycomb structure formed by Mn(II) and Cr(III) ions connected through oxalate anions with [(S)-[PhCH(CH3)N(CH3)3](+) cations and solvent molecules intercalated between the oxalate layers. Two-thirds of the Mn(II) ions of the honeycomb anionic network are heptacoordinated. Th…
A second pathway of activation of the Torpedo acetylcholine receptor channel
1991
We have studied the interaction of the reversible acetylcholine esterase inhibitor (-)physostigmine (D-eserine) with the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) from Torpedo marmorata electric tissue by means of ligand-induced ion flux into nAChR-rich membrane vesicles and of equilibrium binding. We find that (-) physostigmine induces cation flux (and also binds to the receptor) even in the presence of saturating concentrations of antagonists of acetylcholine, such as D-tubocurarine, alpha-bungarotoxin or antibody WF6. The direct action on the acetylcholine receptor is not affected by removal of the methylcarbamate function from the drug and thus is not due to carbamylation of the receptor…
Compensation of steric demand by cation–π interactions, cobaltocenium cations as guests in tetraurea calix[4]arene dimers
2003
The affinities of ferrocene (2) and the cobaltocenium cation (3+), which have roughly the same size and differ in their charge, towards the inner cavity of the dimeric capsule formed by tetraurea calix[4]arene (1) were studied in C2D4Cl2 solutions. While 3+, which occupies more than 75% of the internal volume of the dimer, is readily encapsulated this is not the case for 2. This is probably due to cation-pi interactions, which operate only between 3+ and the aromatic rings of the calix[4]arene dimer. We found that the affinity of the cobaltocenium cation is higher than that of the tropylium cation (4+) and is only 2-3 times less than that of the tetraethylammoniun cation (5+). From the vari…
Dual-stimuli pseudorotaxane switches under kinetic control
2021
A series of dumbbell-shaped sec-ammonium salts with bulky (pseudo)stoppers (‘speed bumps’) were tested for their ability to form pseudorotaxanes with a redox-switchable, tetrathiafulvalene (TTF)-decorated [24]crown-8 ether. Depending on the size of the pseudostoppers, fast (less than ten minutes), slow (hours to days) and very slow (no pseudorotaxanes observed) threading has been observed. NMR spectroscopy as well as tandem mass spectrometry indicate the formation of non-threaded face-to-face complexes prior to pseudorotaxanes formation. Both isomers can be distinguished by their substantially different stability in collision-induced dissociation (CID) experiments. Two external stimuli affe…
Investigations on organoantimony compounds
1977
Abstract Trichlorodiorganoantimony(V) compounds, R2SbCl3, in which the antimony atom is part of a heterocyclic ring have been synthesized. They have been converted into the corresponding tetramethylammonium tetrachlorodiorganoantimonates, [R2SbCl4]− [Me4N]+, which are hexacoordinate diorganoantimony(V) species in which the antimony-carbon bonds are forced into a cis-position. 5,5,5-Trichlorodibenzostibole, 10,10,10-trichlorophenoxantimonin, 5,5,5-trichloro-5,10-dihydrodibenz[b, e]antimonin and 5,5,5-trichloro-10,11-dihydro-5H-dibenzo[b, f]stibepin have been prepared by chlorination of the corresponding heterocyclic chlorodiarylstibines. Heterocyclic trichlorodialkylantimony(V) compounds hav…
Reactive Surface Coatings Based on Polysilsesquioxanes: Controlled Functionalization for Specific Protein Immobilization
2009
The key designing in reliable biosensors is the preparation of thin films in which biomolecular functions may be immobilized and addressed in a controlled and reproducible manner. This requires the controlled preparation of specific binding sites on planar surfaces. Poly(methylsilsesquioxane)-poly(pentafluorophenyl acrylates) (PMSSQ-PFPA) are promising materials to produce stable and adherent thin reactive coatings on various substrates. Those reactive surface coatings could be applied onto various materials, for example, gold, polycarbonate (PC), poly(tetrafluoroethylene) (PTFE), and glass. By dipping those substrates in a solution of a desired amine, specific binding sites for protein ads…
Effective recovery of perfluoropolyether surfactants from PVDF and PTFE by supercritical carbon dioxide extraction
2007
Abstract The extraction of ammonium carboxylate perfluoropolyether surfactants from poly(vinylidenefluoride) (PVDF) and poly(tetrafluoroethylene) (PTFE) was performed with supercritical carbon dioxide. When proper conditions in terms of temperature, pressure and flow rate were used, extraction recoveries higher than 90% were obtained. For PVDF (with a concentration of surfactant of 5% w/w), at low pressure (12 MPa) and 40 °C, more than 100 min are necessary to have a quantitative extraction. On the other hand, at higher pressure (20 MPa) a quantitative recovery was obtained after few minutes. A strong influence of the temperature on the extraction recovery was also found. In the case of PTF…
Grafting of (3-chloropropyl)-trimethoxy silane on halloysite nanotubes surface
2021
Modified halloysite nanotubes (HNTs-Cl) were synthesized by a coupling reaction with (3-chloropropyl) trimethoxysilane (CPTMS). The incorporation of chloro-silane onto HNTs surface creates HNTs-Cl, which has great chemical activity and is considered a good candidate as an active site that reacts with other active molecules in order to create new materials with great applications in chemical engineering and nanotechnology. The value of this work lies in the fact that improving the degree of grafting of chloro-silane onto the HNT’s surface has been accomplished by incorporation of HNTs with CPTMS under different experimental conditions. Many parameters, such as the dispersing media, the molar…
Nitrous oxide fluxes from permafrost regions
2020
This dataset is a synthesis of published nitrous oxide (N2O) fluxes from permafrost-affected soils in Arctic, Antarctic, and Alpine permafrost regions. The data includes mean N2O flux rates measured under field (in situ) conditions and in intact plant-soil systems (mesocosms) under near-field conditions. The dataset further includes explanatory environmental parameters such as meteorological data, soil physical-chemical properties, as well as site and experimental information. Data has been synthesized from published studies (see 'Further details'), and in some cases the authors of published studies have been contacted for additional site-level information. The dataset includes studies publ…
