Optimization of the Production of Thermostable endo-β-1,4 Mannanases from a Newly Isolated <Emphasis Type="Italic">Aspergillus niger gr</Emphasis> and <Emphasis Type="Italic">Aspergillus flavus gr</Emphasis>

The aim of this work was to establish optimal conditions for the maximum production of endo-β-1,4 mannanases using cheaper sources. Eight thermotolerant fungal strains were isolated from garden soil and compost samples collected in and around the Gulbarga University campus, India. Two strains were selected based on their ability to produce considerable endo-β-1,4 mannanases activity while growing in liquid medium at 37 °C with locust bean gum (LBG) as the only carbon source. They were identified as Aspergillus niger gr and Aspergillus flavus gr. The experiment to evaluate the effect of different carbon sources, nitrogen sources, temperatures and initial pH of the medium on maximal enzyme production was studied. Enzyme productivity was influenced by the type of polysaccharide used as the carbon source. Copra meal defatted with n-hexane showed to be a better substrate than LBG and guar gum for endo-β-1,4 mannanases production by A. niger gr (40.011 U/ml), but for A. flavus gr (33.532 U/ml), the difference was not significant. Endo-β-1,4 mannanases produced from A. niger gr and A. flavus gr have high optimum temperature (65 and 60 °C) and good thermostability in the absence of any stabilizers (maintaining 50% of residual activity for 8 and 6 h, respectively, at 60 °C) and are stable over in a wide pH range. These new strains offer an attractive alternative source of enzymes for the food and feed processing industries.     

Identification of clusters from reactions of ruthenium arene anticancer complex with glutathione using nanoscale liquid chromatography fourier transform ion cyclotron mass spectrometry combined with <Superscript>18</Superscript>O-labeling

Reactions of the anticancer complex [(eta(6)-bip)Ru(en)Cl](+) (where bip is biphenyl and en is ethylenediamine) with the tripeptide glutathione (gamma-L-Glu-L-Cys-Gly; GSH), the abundant intracellular thiol, in aqueous solution give rise to two ruthenium cluster complexes, which could not be identified by electrospray mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) using a quadrupole mass analyzer. Here we use Fourier transform ion cyclotron mass spectrometry (nanoLC-FT-ICR MS) to identify the clusters separated by nanoscale liquid chromatography as the tetranuclear complex [{(eta(6)-bip)Ru(GSO(2))}(4)](2-) (2) and dinuclear complex [{(eta(6)-bip)Ru(GSO(2))(2)}(2)](8-) (3) containing glutathione sulfinate (GSO(2)) ligands. Use of (18)OH(2) showed that oxygen from water can readily be incorporated into the oxidized glutathione ligands. These data illustrate the power of high-resolution MS for identifying highly charged multinuclear complexes and elucidating novel reaction pathways for metallodrugs, including ligand-based redox reactions.     

Synthesis and catalytic properties of tetraorganodistannoxanes containing silicon

Three tetraorganodistannoxanes containing silicon were synthesized and their catalytic properties in esterification and acetalization were observed via the reactions of acetic acid with isoamyl alcohol and butyraldehyde with glycol. The factors affecting the reaction, such as the catalyst dosage, reaction time and solvent, etc. were discussed. The results show that the three tetraorganodistannoxanes displayed similar good catalytic activities compared to dichlorotetrabutyldistannoxane in esterification and acetalization. When the dosage of [ClBu₂SnOSn-(CH₂SiMe₃)₂Cl]₂ was 1.5% based on the mass of reactant, the yield of isoamyl acetate was 91.8% and the yield of butyraldehyde glycol acetal 94.2%. The different alkyl and bridging groups on Sn sites in the structure of tetraorganodistannoxanes showed some influence on the catalytic activities of these compounds. __________ Translated from Chinese Journal of Applied Chemistry, 2007, 24 (11): 1265–1272     

Theoretical studies on the infrared spectrum of the tetrahedral molecules R<Subscript>2</Subscript>MH<Subscript>2</Subscript> (R = D(H), CH<Subscript>3</Subscript>, OH; M = Ti,Zr, Hf)

Using Stuttgart/Dresden effective core potentials MWB28, MWB60, and GTO valence basis sets (8s7p6d)/[6s5p3d], (8s7p6d)/[6s5p3d] for Zr and Hf atoms and 6-311++G(3df,3pd) basis set for C, H, O, and Ti atoms, tight convergence criteria geometry optimizations and harmonic frequency calculations are performed at B3LYP and B3LYP/IEF-PCM levels of theory so as to model the gas phase and argon matrix infrared spectra of the tetrahedral molecules R₂MH₂ (R = D(H), CH₃, OH; M = Ti, Zr, Hf). Influence of the transition metal and/or substituent group on the symmetric and asymmetric stretching frequencies of the MH₂ fragment of the R₂MH₂ molecules is investigated at both the levels of theory. The modelling of the argon matrix effect improves the agreement between the calculated frequencies and the experimental ones. The calculated argon matrix to gas phase frequency shifts is compared reasonably to the experimental argon to neon matrix shifts.     

Thermal stability and flame resistance of polypyrrole-coated PET fibres

Electro-conducting doped polypyrrole was deposited by in situ oxidative polymerisation on PET non-wovens. Thermal properties were evaluated by means of DSC and TG in nitrogen and air. Flame resistance tests reveal that coated PET fibres resist to direct contact with fire. By thermal analysis, it was found that PPy reduces the temperature at which thermo-oxidative degradation of PET occurs. Polypyrrole-coated PET non-wovens were heated above the melting point of PET for 30 min. After the heating the fibres become brittle and frail, but SEM observations revealed that they maintained their fibrous shape. A loss of chlorine was found because of intense heating.     

3,5-Bis(2-hydroxyphenyl)-1<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>-1,2,4-triazole based ligands — protonation and metal complex formation

3,5-Bis(2-hydroxyphenyl)-1H-1,2,4-triazole (H₂L^a) and 4-[3,5-bis(2-hydroxyphenyl)-1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl]benzoic acid (H₃L^b) have been prepared, and crystal structure of the intermediate 2-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-4H-1,3-benzoxazin-4-one has been determined. Temperature dependent ¹H NMR spectroscopic measurements of H₂L^a indicated dynamic behavior with the equilibrium between the two asymmetric tautomers. For H₃L^b, pD-dependent ¹H NMR spectroscopic measurements showed small but characteristic shifts in the range of 0 ≤ pD ≤ 1, indicative of a triazole nitrogen atom protonation; the corresponding pK _a of 0.98 ± 0.04 was determined by spectrophotometric titrations. (H₂O, 26°C, 1 M KCl/HCl). Formation of [Fe^III(L^a)]⁺ (pH 2.5) and [Fe^III(L^a)₂]⁻ (pH > 6) was verified by UV-Vis spectroscopy. Complex formation of H₃L^b with Al³⁺ and VO²⁺ was investigated by ¹H NMR spectroscopic titration and cyclic voltammetry, respectively. Single crystals of the phenoxo bridged [V^VO(HL^b)(EtO)]₂·2EtOH were characterized by X-ray structural analysis. Dedicated to Professor Milan Melník on the occasion of his 70th birthday     

Enantioselective synthesis of beta-aryl-gamma-amino acid derivatives via Cu-catalyzed asymmetric 1,4-reductions of gamma-phthalimido-substituted alpha,beta-unsaturated carboxylic acid esters

A series of chiral beta-aryl-substituted gamma-amino butyric acid derivatives were synthesized in good enantioselectivities via the Cu-catalyzed asymmetric conjugate reduction of gamma-phthalimido-alpha,beta-unsaturated carboxylic acid esters using Cu(OAc)2 x H2O as a catalyst precursor, (S)-BINAP as a ligand, PMHS as a hydride source, and t-BuOH as an additive. The methodology has been applied successfully to the enantioselective synthesis of a chiral pharmaceutical, (R)-baclofen.
