The magnetic properties of the Cu(II)-peptide compounds (L-tyrosyl-L-leucinato)Cu(II) and (L-tryptophyl-glycinato)Cu(II), to be identified as Cu(II)Tyr-Leu and Cu(II)Trp-Gly, respectively, have been investigated by specific heat (0.08 < T < 28 K), dc magnetization (2 < T < 80 K, with B(0) = mu(o)H < or = 9 T), and ac magnetic susceptibility (with B(0) = 0 for 0.03 < T < 3 K and B(0) up to 9 T for 2 < T < 80 K) measurements. Above approximately 1 K, the specific heat and magnetization of both compounds display a ferromagnetic (FM) spin chain behavior sustained by syn-anti carboxylate bridges connecting equatorially Cu(II) ions at about 5 A. To model this behavior, we calculated the eigenvalues of Heisenberg chains with up to 20 spins 1/2 and used the method of Bonner and Fisher. A global fit of the model to the specific heat and magnetization data gives 2J(0)/k(B) = 3.60(5) K and 2.59(5) K for the intrachain exchange interactions in Cu(II)Tyr-Leu and Cu(II)Trp-Gly, respectively (H(ex)(i,j) = -2J(0) S(i).S(j)). These values of 2J(0) are discussed in terms of structural properties of the carboxylate bridges in the two compounds. Using the parameters obtained from the global fit, we calculated isothermal susceptibilities in agreement with the ac susceptibilities measured with small applied dc magnetic fields. However, the ac susceptibility measured with applied dc fields larger than 1 T lie between the values calculated for the isothermal and adiabatic susceptibilities. At 0.16 K for Cu(II)Tyr-Leu and 0.53 K for Cu(II)Trp-Gly, the observed specific heat and magnetic susceptibility display peaks associated to three-dimensional magnetic phase transitions. The interchain exchange couplings 2J(1) producing the 3D magnetic order are ferromagnetic and have magnitudes 2J(1)/k(B) approximately 0.015 and 0.073 K for Cu(II)Tyr-Leu and Cu(II)Trp-Gly, respectively. 相似文献

During the course of a research program aimed at identifying novel antileishmanial compounds, a multi-gram synthesis of N-(trans-4-((4-methoxy-3-((R)-3-methylmorpholino)-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-6-yl)amino)cyclohexyl)-2-methylpropane-1-sulfonamide ((R)-1) was required. This letter describes optimisation of the reaction conditions and protecting group strategy for a key Buchwald-Hartwig coupling, delivering the required quantities of (R)-1, as well as further compounds in the series. 相似文献
We show that the equilibrium distribution for the dimer process on the finite Cayley tree tends to a translation invariant
limit as the size of the tree tends to infinity. The same is true for the blocking process except when there is a phase transition,
in which case there are two limits, each a one-step translation of the other. We also find correlations for occupation probabilities. 相似文献
A compact portable vacuum‐compatible chamber designed for surface X‐ray scattering measurements on beamline ID01 of the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility, Grenoble, is described. The chamber is versatile and can be used for in situ investigation of various systems, such as surfaces, nanostructures, thin films etc., using a variety of X‐ray‐based techniques such as reflectivity, grazing‐incidence small‐angle scattering and diffraction. It has been conceived for the study of morphology and structure of semiconductor surfaces during ion beam erosion, but it is also used for the study of surface oxidation or thin film growth under ultra‐high‐vacuum conditions. Coherent X‐ray beam experiments are also possible. The chamber is described in detail, and examples of its use are given. 相似文献
Achieving stability with highly active Ru nanoparticles for electrocatalysis is a major challenge for the oxygen evolution reaction. As improved stability of Ru catalysts has been shown for bulk surfaces with low‐index facets, there is an opportunity to incorporate these stable facets into Ru nanoparticles. Now, a new solution synthesis is presented in which hexagonal close‐packed structured Ru is grown on Au to form nanoparticles with 3D branches. Exposing low‐index facets on these 3D branches creates stable reaction kinetics to achieve high activity and the highest stability observed for Ru nanoparticle oxygen evolution reaction catalysts. These design principles provide a synthetic strategy to achieve stable and active electrocatalysts. 相似文献
The crystal structure of 5-methyl-acetophenonethiosemicarbazone monohydrate,A, and salicylaldehyde-2-methylthiosemicarbazone monohydrate,B, were determined using single crystal X-ray diffraction.A crystallizes in the monoclinic space groupC2/c, with lattice parametersa=14.161(2),b=15.753(1) ?,c=11.084(1) ?, β=112.59(1)° andZ=4, yielding a calculated density ofDcalc=1.352 mg/m3.B crystallizes in the triclinic space groupP1, witha=7.233(2) ?,b=7.371(2) ?,c=11.841(2) ?, α=82.77(2)°, β=78.33(2)°, γ=63.06(2)° andDcalc=1.371 mg/m3 forZ=2,. In bothA andB the immine nitrogen and the sulfur atom areanti with respect to N2-C8. WhileA presents the usual intramolecular six membered hydrogen bond ring,B has instead an intermolecular hydrogen bond between the hydroxy moiety of the salicyladehyde and a water molecule. AM1 calculations
agree with the experimental conformations observed in both compounds.

Cycloreversion of cis- and trans-1,2,3-triphenylazetidine (c-2 and t-2) is achieved by electron transfer to (tris(4-bromophenyl)aminium radical cation (5 (*+)). Stepwise C-N and C-C bond cleavage of azetidine radical cations leads to cis- and trans-stilbene, together with N-benzylideneaniline, as final products. Mechanistic evidence is provided by quenching studies, using laser flash photolysis to generate 5 (*+) from its neutral precursor. 相似文献
Polycyclic aromatic sulphur heterocyclic (PASH) compounds, such as dibenzothiophene (DBT) and alkylated derivatives are used as model compounds in biodesulfurization processes. The development of these processes is focused on the reduction of the concentration of sulphur in gasoline and gas–oil [D.J. Monticello, Curr. Opin. Biotechnol. 11 (2000) 540], in order to meet European Union and United States directives.
The evaluation of biodesulfurization processes requires the development of adequate analytical techniques, allowing the identification of any transformation products generated. The identification of intermediates and final products permits the evaluation of the degradation process.
In this work, seven sulfurated compounds and one non-sulfurated compound have been selected to develop an extraction method and to compare the sensitivity and identification capabilities of three different gas chromatography ionization modes. The selected compounds are: dibenzothiophene (DBT), 4-methyl-dibenzothiophene (4-m-DBT), 4,6-dimethyl-dibenzothiophene (4,6-dm-DBT) and 4,6 diethyl-dibenzothiophene (4,6 de-DBT), all of which can be used as model compounds in biodesulfurization processes; as well as dibenzothiophene sulfoxide (DBTO2), dibenzothiophene sulfone (DBTO) and 2-(2-hydroxybiphenyl)-benzenesulfinate (HBPS), which are intermediate products in biodesulfurization processes of DBT [ A. Alcon, V.E. Santos, A.B. Martín, P. Yustos, F. García-Ochoa, Biochem. Eng. J. 26 (2005) 168]. Furthermore, a non-sulfurated compound, 2-hydroxybiphenyl (2-HBP), has also been selected as it is the final product in the biodesulfurization process of DBT [A. Alcon, V.E. Santos, A.B. Martín, P. Yustos, F. García-Ochoa. Biochem. Eng. J. 26 (2005) 168].
Since, typically, biodesulfurization reactions take place in a biphasic medium, two extraction methods have been developed: a liquid–liquid extraction method for the watery phase and a solid phase extraction method for the organic phase. Recoveries of the selected compound in both media were studied. They were in the range of 80–100% for the watery and in the range of 40–60% for the organic phase, respectively.
Gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (GC–MS) has been employed for the identification of these selected compounds. Three different ionization modes were applied: conventional electron impact (EI); positive chemical ionization (PCI), using methane as the reagent gas; and a recently developed ionization mode known as hybrid chemical ionization (HCI), using perfluorotri-n-butylamine as the reagent gas. Limits of detection and identification capabilities have been compared between the three analytical techniques.
The sensitivity of the three analytical techniques was studied and LOD between 0.05 and 1, between 0.09 and 2 and between 0.001 and 0.043 were achieved for PCI, EI and HCI, respectively.
The developed method was applied in samples from a biodesulfurization process. The biodesulfurization reactions were conducted in resting cell operation mode, using Erlenmeyer flasks or an agitated tank bioreactor. The microorganism employed was Pseudomonas putida CECT 5279. The reaction was performed under controlled air flow, stirring and temperature conditions. 相似文献
