A Specific Radioimmunoassay for the Determination of Low Quantities of Indole-3-acetic Acid in Spruce Needles of Healthy and Damaged Trees
1988
Summary The aim of the present investigation was to develop a radioimmunoassay for the quantification of indole-3-acetic acid in needles of Picea abies in damaged and phenotypically healthy trees. Phenols, lipophilic substances or compounds with cross-reactivity had to be separated from the extracts in several purification steps. Measurements were carried out between May and October 1986 on trees from two spruce plantations. Marked differences were found in IAA content in needles of healthy and damaged trees. In most cases the needles of the damaged trees contain lower endogenous IAA levels. The auxin levels also depended on the age of the tree, the year of needle formation, and the vegetat…
Arynic species II
1986
Abstract o-Benzyne and its 4-methyl, 4-chloro and 4-bromo-derivatives were generated in the thermal decomposition of two new kinds of polymer-bound precursors: 1(2-carboxyaryl)triazenes and 2-carboxyaryl-sulphonates. New kinds of trapping polymers for these elusive species are also presented.
Formation rates and protonation constants of azo dyes in a sodium dodecylsulphate micellar solution.
1991
The effects of a sodium dodecylsulphate micellar solution on the coupling rates of several diazotizated arylamines with N-(1-naphthyl)-ethylenediamine and the shifts in the protonation constants of the corresponding azo dyes are quantitatively studied. Aniline, o-, m- and p-aminobenzoic acids, ethyl p-aminobenzoate and several sulphadrugs are used, and the relationships among the intensity of the effects and the molecular structure of the diazonium ions and the dyes are discussed. A single simplified procedure for the determination of all the substances at pH = 1.3 +/- 0.3, where coupling is quickly completed to directly produce the protonated form of the dyes, is established and applied to…
Stable 17-electron Mo(III) complexes containing alkyl ligands
1999
Abstract The alkylation of the half-sandwich complex CpMoCl 2 ( η 4 -diene) (diene=C 4 H 6 , 2,3-Me 2 C 4 H 4 ) affords the first thermally stable 17-electron compounds containing Mo(III)–alkyl bonds.
o-Boronato- and o-Trifluoroborato-Phosphonium Salts Supported by L-α-Amino Acid Side Chain.
2015
The synthesis of o-boronato- and o-trifluoroborato-phosphonium salts supported by the L-amino acid side chain is described. The synthesis of these new class of amino acid derivatives was achieved by stereoselective quaternization of o-(pinacolato)boronatophenylphosphine with β- or γ-iodo amino acid derivatives which are prepared from L-serine or L-aspartic acid, respectively. The quaternization of the phosphine was performed using either iodo amino ester or carboxylic acid derivatives. In addition, free carboxylic acid and amine derivatives were obtained by saponification or HCl acidolysis of o-boronato-phosphonium amino esters, respectively. The usefulness of these compounds in peptide cou…
Structure and properties of N-methyl-N-(4-pyridyl)-nitramine and 1,4-dihydro-1-methyl-4-nitriminopyridine
2002
Abstract The molecular structure and spectral properties of N -methyl- N -(4-pyridyl)-nitramine ( 1 ) and 1,4-dihydro-1-methyl-4-nitriminopyridine ( 3 ) were investigated by the X-ray diffraction, FTIR, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) methods and DFT theoretical calculations. N -methyl- N -(4-pyridyl)-nitramine ( 1 ) crystallises in the orthorhombic Pbca space group. It is composed of two planar fragments; nitramino (N 2 O 2 ) group and the pirydyl ring. These two groups are twisted at about 70° with respect to each other, along the Ar–N bond. On the contrary, in compound 3 , they are coplanar to each other. Twist of the nitramino group in 1 with respect to the pirydyl ring leads to a sign…

Carotenoids
2009
Publisher Summary This chapter provides an overview of what is known about carotenoid metabolism in Chlamydomonas with reference to other green algae and vascular plants. The biosynthesis of carotenoids and the subdivisions of carotenogenesis are described. With respect to subcellular distribution, the carotenoids in vegetative cells localize to the chloroplast where they either serve as photosynthetic pigments bound to the protein complexes of the two photosystems, or as components of the eyespot apparatus is outlined with its functional significance. Carotenoids can serve as precursors of a number of other molecules with important physiological functions in Chlamydomonas.
A wide family of pyridoxal thiosemicarbazone ferric complexes: Syntheses, structures and magnetic properties
2009
Abstract This study reports the syntheses and the characterization of 12 ferric complexes of pyridoxal thiosemicarbazone. The richness of the coordination chemistry of this ligand is highlighted by the modulation of its charge from neutral H 2 L to anionic L 2− , thus leading to a wide family of ferric compounds with charge varying from +3 to −1. The structures of complexes [Fe(HL) 2 ]ClO 4 · 2H 2 O and [Fe(HL)L] · 4.5H 2 O were solved and discussed with a particular attention brought to the intermolecular interactions occurring between the complexes. The investigation of magnetic properties of these compounds revealed that two of them are in the HS state at any temperature, whereas the ot…
Environmentally relevant precursors of carbonyl sulfide in aquatic systems
1997
Seawater solutions of environmentally relevant organosulfur compounds, commercial humic acid (HA), and natural dissolved organic matter (DOM) were incubated with and without UV light in order to determine the carbonyl sulfide (COS) producing capabilities of these compounds. COS dark- and photo-production rate constants were determined for dilute solutions of the organosulfur compounds (μmol l−1) and HA/DOM (mg l−1). Dissolved COS was determined using a purge and cryogenic trap method followed by GC/FPD detection. COS was produced in considerable amounts both non-photochemically and photochemically from the reduced form of free acid of glutathione (GSH) and photochemically from cysteine (CYS…
