Extremal k *-Cycle Resonant Hexagonal Chains

Denote by ^* _n the set of all k ^*-cycle resonant hexagonal chains with n hexagons. For any B _n ^* _n , let m(B _n ) and i(B _n ) be the numbers of matchings (=the Hosoya index) and the number of independent sets (=the Merrifield–Simmons index) of B _n , respectively. In this paper, we give a characterization of the k ^*-cycle resonant hexagonal chains, and show that for any B _n ^* _n , m(H _n )m(B _n ) and i(H _n )i(B _n ), where H _n is the helicene chain. Moreover, equalities hold only if B _n =H _n .

A ruler for determining the position of proteins in membranes

Both the oxygen diffusion rate and the oxygen solubility vary with depth into the interior of biological membranes. The product of these two gradients generates a single gradient, a permeability gradient, which is a smooth continuous function of the distance from the center of the membrane. Using electron paramagnetic resonance and the spin-probe method, the relaxation gradient of oxygen, which is directly proportional to the permeability gradient, is the quantity that can be directly measured in membranes under physiological conditions. The gradient obtained provides a calibrated ruler for determining the membrane depth of residues either from loop regions of membrane-binding proteins or from the membrane-exposed residues of transmembrane proteins. We have determined the relaxation gradient of oxygen in zwitterionic and anionic phospholipid membranes by attaching a single nitroxide probe to a transmembrane alpha-helical polypeptide at specific residues. The peptide ruler was used to determine the depth of penetration of the calcium-binding loops of the C2 domain of cytosolic phospholipase A(2). The positions of selected residues of this membrane-binding protein that penetrate into the membrane, determined using this ruler, compared favorably with previous determinations using more complex methods. The relaxation gradient constrains the possible values of the membrane-dependent oxygen concentration and the oxygen diffusion gradients. The average oxygen diffusion coefficient is estimated to be at least 2-fold smaller in the membrane than that in water.     

Structure determination of homoleptic AuI, AgI, and CuI aryl/alkylethynyl coordination polymers by X-ray powder diffraction

This article describes the structure determination of five homoleptic d(10) metal-aryl/alkylacetylides [RC triple bond CM] (M=Cu, R=tBu 1, nPr 2, Ph 3; R=Ph, M=Ag 4; Au 5) by using X-ray single-crystal and powder diffraction. Complex 1.C6H6 reveals an unusual Cu20 catenane cluster structure that has various types of tBuC triple bond C-->Cu coordination modes. By using this single-crystal structure as a starting model for subsequent Rietveld refinement of X-ray powder diffraction data, the structure of the powder synthesized from CuI and tBuC triple bond CH was found to have the same structure as 1. Complex 2 has an extended sheet structure consisting of discrete zig-zag Cu4 subunits connected through bridging nPrC triple bond C groups. Complex 3 forms an infinite chain structure with extended Cu-Cu ladders (Cu-Cu=2.49(4)-2.83(2) A). The silver(I) congener 4 is iso-structural to 3 (average Ag-Ag distance 3.11 A), whereas the gold(I) analogue 5 forms a Au...Au honeycomb network with PhC triple bond C pillars (Au-Au=2.98(1)-3.26(1) A). Solid-state properties including photoluminescence, nu(C triple bond C) stretching frequencies and thermal stability of these polymeric systems are discussed in the context of the determined structures.

IR and theoretical studies of monocarbonyl Ni complexes formed by adsorption of CO at low pressure on silica-supported Ni(II) ions

This work reports on the reactivity of coordination vacancies of Ni(II) ions grafted onto the tridentate silica support (Ni(II)(3c) ions) with respect to CO used as a probe molecule. The adsorption of CO at 77 K in the 0.3 to 3.5 Pa CO pressure range is studied by FTIR on two samples differing in the dispersion of nickel. Quantum chemical calculations by the DFT method are performed to investigate, using a cluster approach, the binding of Ni to silica and, after CO adsorption, the geometry of the resulting carbonyl Ni complexes. Silica is modeled by using clusters composed of three types of monodentate ligands, SiO(-), SiOSi and/or SiOH, found on the surface of silica. This work is devoted to the monocarbonyl complexes. Whatever the sample, only one type of monocarbonyl is formed from Ni(II)(3c) ions. It is shown that the charge of the silica cluster is the major parameter influencing the CO IR frequency whereas the nature and the size of the silica cluster do not affect the CO bond length, confirming that local electrostatic interactions predominate. Only the 1- charged silica cluster Si(5)O(3)(-), composed of SiO(-), 2SiOSi fragments, respectively, reproduces the Ni[bond]O distances derived from EXAFS for the Ni(II)(3c) grafted site and gives CO frequencies in good agreement with the experimental values. It is shown that CO is stabilized by a magnetic transition from the (3)Ni(2+) triplet to the (1)Ni(2+) singlet state occurring upon adsorption.
