CuAl2Cl8. Darstellung und Kristallstruktur

CuAl₂Cl₈. Preparation and Crystal Structure. Crystals of CuAl₂Cl₈ have been prepared. Their remission spectrum agrees with that of gaseous CuAl₂Cl₈. The crystal structure (P2₁/c;a = 6.614, b = 7.376, c = 12.319 Å; β = 94.11°) shows a molecular lattice with Cu in square planar coordination, which is completed to a stretched octahedron (as in solid CuCl₂) by two Cl atoms from neighbour molecules. Al has tetrahedral coordination.     

Calculation of Siegert eigenvalues for molecular systems: results for He(21,3S)+ H

The variational calculation of Siegert eigenvalues has previously been shown to provide reliable positions and widths for atomic resonances. This approach is herein extended to molecular problems, and the first such calculations for a molecular autoionizing system, He(2^1,3S)+H→ He+H⁺+e^?, are reported.     

Γ-Lakton-cis-anellierung an Δ2- und Δ3- Cholesten

γ-Lactone-cis-annulation to Δ²- and Δ³- Cholestene. From Δ²- and Δ³- cholestene the γ-lactones 11a , 11b , 12a , and 12b are synthesized through the dibromocarbene adducts 3 and 4 , the bromohydrines 5 and 6 , the oxapiropentanes 7 and 8 , and the cyclobutanones 9a , 9b and 10a , 10b , respectively. The ¹³C-NMR.-spectra of 1–8 and 11 as well as the ORD.-spectra of the cyclobutanones 9 and 10 are reported.     

Evaluation of parameters critical to observing proteins inside living Escherichia coli by in-cell NMR spectroscopy

Our recently developed in-cell NMR procedure now enables one to observe protein conformations inside living cells. Optimization of the technique demonstrates that distinguishing the signals produced by a single protein species depends critically on protein overexpression levels and the correlation time in the cytoplasm. Less relevant is the selective incorporation of (15)N. Poorly expressed proteins, insoluble proteins, and proteins that cannot tumble freely due to associations within the cell cannot yet be observed. We show in-cell NMR spectra of bacterial NmerA and human calmodulin and discuss limitations of the technique as well as prospects for future applications.
