Laser Stark spectroscopy in the 9.4-μm region: The ν2 and ν5 bands of methyl chloride-d3

About two hundred Stark resonances of the ν₂ and ν₅ vibration-rotation bands of CD₃³⁵Cl, using a 9.4 μm CO₂ laser as a source, have been measured. By combining these data with the zero-field microwave spectra the following molecular constants have been determined (with the standard deviations in parentheses):

Single crystal X- and Q-band EPR spectroscopy of a binuclear Mn(2)(III,IV) complex relevant to the oxygen-evolving complex of photosystem II     

Yano J  Sauer K  Girerd JJ  Yachandra VK 《Journal of the American Chemical Society》2004,126(24):7486-7495

The anisotropic g and hyperfine tensors of the Mn di-micro-oxo complex, [Mn(2)(III,IV)O(2)(phen)(4)](PF(6))(3).CH(3)CN, were derived by single-crystal EPR measurements at X- and Q-band frequencies. This is the first simulation of EPR parameters from single-crystal EPR spectra for multinuclear Mn complexes, which are of importance in several metalloenzymes; one of them is the oxygen-evolving complex in photosystem II (PS II). Single-crystal [Mn(2)(III,IV)O(2)(phen)(4)](PF(6))(3).CH(3)CN EPR spectra showed distinct resolved (55)Mn hyperfine lines in all crystal orientations, unlike single-crystal EPR spectra of other Mn(2)(III,IV) di-micro-oxo bridged complexes. We measured the EPR spectra in the crystal ab- and bc-planes, and from these spectra we obtained the EPR spectra of the complex along the unique a-, b-, and c-axes of the crystal. The crystal orientation was determined by X-ray diffraction and single-crystal EXAFS (Extended X-ray Absorption Fine Structure) measurements. In this complex, the three crystallographic axes, a, b, and c, are parallel or nearly parallel to the principal molecular axes of Mn(2)(III,IV)O(2)(phen)(4) as shown in the crystallographic data by Stebler et al. (Inorg. Chem. 1986, 25, 4743). This direct relation together with the resolved hyperfine lines significantly simplified the simulation of single-crystal spectra in the three principal directions due to the reduction of free parameters and, thus, allowed us to define the magnetic g and A tensors of the molecule with a high degree of reliability. These parameters were subsequently used to generate the solution EPR spectra at both X- and Q-bands with excellent agreement. The anisotropic g and hyperfine tensors determined by the simulation of the X- and Q-band single-crystal and solution EPR spectra are as follows: g(x) = 1.9887, g(y) = 1.9957, g(z) = 1.9775, and hyperfine coupling constants are A(III)(x) = |171| G, A(III)(y) = |176| G, A(III)(z) = |129| G, A(IV)(x) = |77| G, A(IV)(y) = |74| G, A(IV)(z) = |80| G.

Structure and ethanol complexation of cyclic tetrasaccharide in aqueous solution studied by NMR and molecular mechanics     

Funasaki N  Ishikawa S  Hirota S  Neya S  Nishimoto T 《Chemical & pharmaceutical bulletin》2004,52(6):708-713

The structure and ethanol complexation of a cyclic tetrasaccharide (CTS) in aqueous solution were investigated by proton NMR spectroscopy and molecular mechanics calculations. Two glucose units, A and B, of CTS are alternatively bonded by alpha-1,3 and alpha-1,6 linkages. The overlapped signals of protons A5, A6S, A6R, B3, B6S and B6R were resolved by spectral simulations to determine their chemical shifts and vicinal coupling constants. All vicinal coupling constants except for the A5-A6 spin system are consistent with the dihedral angles in the X-ray crystal structure. Each of protons A5, A6S, and A6R in the two units of A is equivalent with respect to the chemical shift. The vicinal coupling constants of (3)J(5-6S) and (3)J(5-6R) for unit A are close to the average of two rotamers that are present in crystals. The intensities of cross-peaks in the rotating frame nuclear Overhauser effect spectroscopy (ROESY) spectrum were rather well correlated with the effective distances calculated for the X-ray structure and molecular mechanics structures calculated in vacuo and water, although they are slightly better correlated with molecular mechanics structure in vacuo than with the other structures. From the changes of the chemical shifts of several CTS protons with increasing ethanol concentration, it was suggested that adsorption sites of ethanol on the plate structure of CTS are protons B2 and B4 (site B) in the concave face side and protons A1 and A2 (site A) in the convex back side. The binding constants for sites A and B are 0.0061 and 0.0176 M(-1), respectively. These binding constants are much smaller than a value of 4.1 M(-1) for the ethanol-alpha-cyclodextrin complex.

LIGHT-INDUCED SYNTHESIS OF ANTHOCYANIN IN CARROT CELLS IN SUSPENSION—IV. THE ACTION SPECTRUM     

Junko  Takeda Shunnosuke  Abe 《Photochemistry and photobiology》1992,56(1):69-74

Abstract— Using carrot cell suspension in 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D)-depleted culture medium, fluence-response curves for the formation of anthocyanin were determined at various wavelengths from 250 to 800 nm. In the fluence-response curves at wavelengths between 260 and 330 nm, the response showed a sharp fluence-dependent increase after the fluence exceeded threshold level at the respective wavelength. Such a sharp increase in response was not observed by light at 450 nm or longer wavelengths, although the response obtained by higher fluence of such light was always higher than that in the dark control. Action spectra determined at the sharp increasing phase of the response showed the single peak at 280 nm which equals the absorption maximum of UV-B photoreceptor.
Although red (R)-light alone had a minor effect on anthocyanin accumulation, it modulated the action of UV-B light. That is, when carrot cells were irradiated with R-light either before or after UV-B irradiation, anthocyanin formation was greatly enhanced above the level enhanced by UV-B light alone. The most effective wavelength for this enhancement was 660 nm. The effect of R-light on the anthocyanin formation of the UV-B irradiated cells was reversed by immediately following it with far-red light, suggesting the involvement of phytochrome in the R-effect.

Epsilon -N,N,N-trimethyllysine-specific ions in matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-tandem mass spectrometry     

Hirota J  Satomi Y  Yoshikawa K  Takao T 《Rapid communications in mass spectrometry : RCM》2003,17(5):371-376

Epsilon -N,N,N-trimethyllysine (K(me3)) is a component of a number of proteins and plays an important role in the expression of their biological functions. Trimethylation, which causes an incremental increase in mass of 42.0470 Da from that of the corresponding MH(+) ion, cannot be distinguished from the acetylation (+42.0106 Da), which also occurs on epsilon-amino groups of Lys or alpha-amino groups in many proteins, without high-accuracy mass measurement which is accurate to within the second decimal place. MALDI-MS and MS/MS have been applied for the analyses of post-translational modifications of histone H3, which is known to contain both multiple acetylation and methylation sites in its sequence. During the measurements of the modified peptides, a novel fragmentation which involves the loss of trimethylamine from K(me3) was found. This characteristic fragmentation, which was observed to produce ions separated by 59 Da from the conventional precursor ion or sequence ions, would be useful for probing K(me3) units in the sequence.

Synthesis and applications of [1-(15)N]-labeled 4,6-dimethyl-4H-[1,2,5]oxadiazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine-5,7-dione 1-oxide as a useful tool for mechanistic investigations     

Sako M  Yaekura I  Oda S  Hirota K 《The Journal of organic chemistry》2000,65(20):6670-6675

[1-(15)N]-Labeled 4,6-dimethyl-4H-[1,2,5]oxadiazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine-5,7-dione 1-oxide (1-(15)N1) was easily prepared by nitration of commercially available 6-amino-1,3-dimethyl-1H-pyrimidine-2,4-dione using 15N-enriched nitric acid followed by an intramolecular oxidative cyclization with iodosylbenzene diacetate under mild conditions. On the basis of the experimental results using 1-(15)N1, the formation of 8-phenyltheophylline (3), the 1,3-dimethylalloxazines (4: n = 0, 1), and 1,3,7,9-tetramethyl-1H,9H-pyrimido[5,4-g]pteridine-2,4,6,8-tetraone++ + (5) in the thermal reaction of the N-oxide 1 with benzylamine, aniline, or piperidine, and the generation of NO or NO-related species in the reaction with N-acetylcysteamine were reasonably explained by considering the initial attack of the employed nucleophiles on the 3a-position of 1.

Chain length effect of the counterion on the partial molal volume of alkanesulfonates     

Hideo?AkisadaEmail author  Masakatu?Ishihara  Mitiko?Nishi  Masaaki?Higake  Seiki?Ishimaru  Junko?Nishida 《Colloid and polymer science》2003,281(10):993-997

The partial molal volumes of two series of homologous surfactants, n-alkylammonium decanesulfonates and a, ?-alkanediammonium nonanesulfonates, were measured below and above their CMC in aqueous solution. Their counterions were n-alkylammonium and a, ?-alkanediammonium. The relationship between the partial molal volume and the chain length of the counterion below the CMC had an inflection point. The relationship between them, above the CMC, was almost linear. In the case of the alkylammonium salts, the values of the volume change of micellization were almost the same when the chain length of the counterions was shorter than the butyl, and increased with an increase in the chain length when it was longer than the propyl. In the case of the alkanediammonium salts, the volume change of micellization showed a small decrease with the chain length when it was shorter than octane, and was very large for the nonane ammonium salt. The large positive increase in the volume change with the increase in the chain length of the counterion can be explained by the hydrophobic interaction between the alkyl chain of the counterion and the hydrophobic core of the micelle.
