PHOTOSENSORY BEHAVIOR OF A BACTERIORHODOPSIN-DEFICIENT MUTANT, ET-15, OF Halobacterium halobium

– Halobacterium halobium , strain ET-15, which does not contain detectable amounts of bacteriorhodopsin (BR) shows behavioral responses to UV and yellow-green light. Attractant stimuli. i.e. light-increases in the yellow-green range or light-decreases in the UV, suppress the spontaneous reversals of the swimming direction for a certain time. Repellent stimuli, i.e. light-decreases in the yellow-green range or light-increases in the UV, elicit an additional reversal response after a few seconds. Action spectra of both sensory photosystems, PS 370 and PS 565, were measured with attractant as well as with repellent stimuli. As in BR-containing cells, maximal sensitivity was always found at 370 nm for the UV-system and at 565 nm for the long-wavelength system. Fluence-response curves at 370 and 565 nm obtained with strain ET-15 and with a BR-containing strain show that the sensitivity of both photosystems is not reduced in the absence of BR. It is concluded that BR is required neither for PS 565 nor for PS 370. Instead retinal-containing pigments different from BR have to be assumed to mediate photosensory behavior.     

On the ternary B 2-phase in the Al-Co-Ga system

Summary Lattice parameter values were determined for the ternary B 2-phase in the Al-Co-Ga system, and it was found that a continuous solid solution exists between -AlCo and -CoGa. Phase boundaries of the ternary phase at 1 100 K were derived from the variation of the lattice parameter with composition.

Über die ternäre B 2-Phase im System Al-Co-Ga

Zusammenfassung Im Bereich der ternären B 2-Phase im System Al-Co-Ga wurden die Werte des Gitterparameters bestimmt; es stellte sich heraus, daß eine durchgehende feste Lösung zwischen -AlCo und -CoGa besteht. Die Phasengrenzen der ternären Phase bei 1 100 K wurden aus der Änderung des Gitterparameters mit der Zusammensetzung abgeleitet.

     

Über die Darstellung von Verbindungen des Typs Cl3VNR

The reaction of VOCl₃ with sily-substituted amines results in the substitution of oxygen in VOCl₃ and in compounds of type Cl₃V = NR. In this way, we succeeded in isolating the pure compound Cl₃V = NCH₃ (I). The existence of compound (Cl₃VNC₆H₅)_x (II) was proved by direct synthesis from Cl₃VO and ((CH₃)₃Si)₂NC₆H₅, and by the decomposition of the new addition compounds Cl₃VO · 2 OCNC₆H₅ (III) and Cl₃VO · 2 OSNC₆H₅ (IV).     

Determination of the thermodynamic excess functionsG E,H E,andS E of the liquid ternary system AgCl—LiCl—KCl by means of EMF-measurements

By means of EMF-measurements using the formation cell $$graphite/Ag/AgCl(l,x_{AgCl} ) - LiCl(l,x_{LiCl} ) - KCl x_{KCl} /(Cl_2 )graphite$$ the partial molar excessGibbs energies,G _AgCl ^E , of silver chloride in the ternary system AgCl?LiCl?KCl were determined over the whole concentration range at five temperatures between 973 K and 1,123 K. The experimentally determinedG _AgCl ^E -values were fitted using theRedlich-Kister equation. From theRedlich-Kister parameters and their temperature dependence, obtained by the fitting procedure, the integral and partial molar excessGibbs energies, heats of mixing, and excess entropies were calculated. The fitting process permits also the calculation of the thermodynamic excess function of the binary system lithium chloride—potassium chloride.

Structural investigation of high-valent manganese-salen complexes by UV/Vis,Raman, XANES,and EXAFS spectroscopy

XANES and EXAFS spectroscopic studies at the Mn-K- and Br-K-edge of reaction products of (S,S)-(+)-N,N'-bis(3,5-di-tert-butylsalicylidene)-1,2-cyclohexanediaminomanganese(III) chloride ([(salen)Mn(III)Cl], 1) and (S,S)-(+)-N,N'-bis(3,5-di-tert-butylsalicylidene)-1,2-cyclohexanediaminomanganese(III) bromide ([(salen)Mn(III)Br], 2) with 4-phenylpyridine N-oxide (4-PPNO) and 3-chloroperoxybenzoic acid (MCPBA) are reported. The reaction of the Mn(III) complexes with two equivalents of 4-PPNO leads to a hexacoordinated compound, in which the manganese atom is octahedrally coordinated by four oxygen/nitrogen atoms of the salen ligand at an average distance of approximately 1.90 A and two additional, axially bonded oxygen atoms of the 4-PPNO at 2.25 A. The oxidation state of this complex was determined as approximately +IV by a comparative study of Mn(III) and Mn(V) reference compounds. The green intermediate obtained in reactions of MCPBA and solutions of 1 or 2 in acetonitrile was investigated with XANES, EXAFS, UV/Vis, and Raman spectroscopy, and an increase of the coordination number of the manganese atoms from 4 to 5 and the complete abstraction of the halide was observed. A formal oxidation state of IV was deduced from the relative position of the pre-edge 1s-->3d feature of the X-ray absorption spectrum of the complex. The broad UV/Vis band of this complex in acetonitrile with lambda(max)=648 nm was consistent with a radical cation structure, in which a MCPBA molecule was bound to the Mn(IV) central atom. An oxomanganese(V) or a dimeric manganese(IV) species was not detected.
