We have investigated the synthesis of perovskite-type SrFeOx (2.5 x 3.0) using three preparative methods: sol-gel, mechanochemical processing and solid state reactions at high temperature of the corresponding oxides. The sample obtained after calcination of the gel from sol-gel method, contained the least amount of strontium carbonate impurity. The amount of strontium carbonate impurity decreased with the increase in calcination temperature. Perovskites obtained have been characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and nitrogen adsorption isotherms. Samples obtained from three methods have been compared with respect to calcination temperature, crystallite size and specific surface area.Issued as NRCC No. 46479. 相似文献
Pichia stipitis CBS 6054 will grow on d-xylose, d-arabinose, and l-arabinose. d-Xylose and l-arabinose are abundant in seed hulls of maize, and their utilization is important in processing grain residues. To elucidate
the degradation pathway for l-arabinose, we obtained a mutant, FPL-MY30, that was unable to grow on d-xylose and l-arabinose but that could grow on d-arabinitol. Activity assays of oxidoreductase and pentulokinase enzymes involved in d-xylose, d-arabinose, and l-arabinose pathways indicated that FPL-MY30 is deficient in d-xylitol dehydrogenase (D-XDH), d- and l-arabinitol dehydrogenases, and d-ribitol dehydrogenase. Transforming FPL-MY30 with a gene for xylitol dehydrogenase (PsXYL2), which was cloned from CBS 6054 (Gen Bank AF127801), restored the D-XDH activity and the capacity for FPL-MY30 to grow on
l-arabinose. This suggested that FPL-MY30 is critically deficient in XYL2 and that the d-xylose and l-arabinose metabolic pathways have xylitolas a common intermediate. The capacity for FPL-MY30 to grow on d-arabinitol could proceed through d-ribulose. 相似文献
Summary [(Ph3P)AuCo(CO)3(PPh3)] has been synthesised from [(Ph3P)AuCo(CO)4], PPh3v and Me3NO in acetonitrile. Its molecular structure, determined by single-crystal x-ray crystallography, consists of an almost linear
P-Au-Co-P arrangement in which the Co atom is in a slightly distorted trigonalbipyramidal geometry, with the Au and P atoms
occupying the apical sites. The Au-Co bond length of 2.450(1) ? is shorter than that reported for [(Ph3P)AuCo(CO)4]. The carbonyl ligands are bent towards the Au atom and the mean Au-Co-C angle is 81(1)°. 相似文献
The reaction of the cluster complex HCC[Co2(CO)6]CCo3(CO)9 with (or without) BrCCo3(CO)9 under Cadiot-Chodkiewicz coupling conditions gave the unusual alkynyl carboxamide complex C2H5N(H)C(O)CC[Co2(CO)6]CCo3(CO)9 rather than a coupled product containing two tricobalt cluster units. Steric demands imposed by the Co3 cluster allow attack at the least hindered alkyne carbon and stabilise the formed ynamine, so allowing subsequent CO insertion. The product has been characterised by X-ray crystallography. 相似文献
High-frequency pulsed EPR and ENDOR have been employed to characterize the tyrosyl radical (Y*)-diiron cofactor in the Y2-containing R2 subunit of ribonucleotide reductase (RNR) from yeast. The present work represents the first use of 140-GHz time domain EPR and ENDOR to examine this system and demonstrates the capabilities of the method to elucidate the electronic structure and the chemical environment of protein radicals. Low-temperature spin-echo-detected EPR spectra of yeast Y* reveal an EPR line shape typical of a tyrosyl radical; however, when compared with the EPR spectra of Y* from E. coli RNR, a substantial upfield shift of the g(1)-value is observed. The origin of the shift in g(1) was investigated by 140-GHz (1)H and (2)H pulsed ENDOR experiments of the Y2-containing subunit in protonated and D(2)O-exchanged buffer. (2)H ENDOR spectra and simulations provide unambiguous evidence for one strongly coupled (2)H arising from a bond between the radical and an exchangeable proton of an adjacent residue or a water molecule. Orientation-selective 140-GHz ENDOR spectra indicate the direction of the hydrogen bond with respect to the molecular symmetry axes and the bond length (1.81 A). Finally, we have performed saturation recovery experiments and observed enhanced spin lattice relaxation rates of the Y* above 10 K. At temperatures higher than 20 K, the relaxation rates are isotropic across the EPR line, a phenomenon that we attribute to isotropic exchange interaction between Y* and the first excited paramagnetic state of the diiron cluster adjacent to it. From the activation energy of the rates, we determine the exchange interaction between the two irons of the cluster, J(exc) = -85 cm(-)(1). The relaxation mechanism and the presence of the hydrogen bond are discussed in terms of the differences in the structure of the Y*-diiron cofactor in yeast Y2 and other class I R2s. 相似文献
Condensation of 2,5,5-trimethylhexa-2,3-dien-6-a1 with malononitrile affords an unexpected product, C15H16N4X, (), the structure of which was partially characterized by spectral (infrared, ultraviolet, 1H, and 13C nmr) methods and fully elucidated by single crystal X-ray analysis. is l-cyano-2-amino-3-(2-propenyl)-5,5-dimethy-6- dicyanomethycycohexa-l,3-diene in a half-chair conformation. Conjugation of the -aminocyanoethenyl moiety leads to intermolecular hydrogen bonding in the crystal. A reaction sequence and its mechanistic implications are proposed. 相似文献
The use of DNA to template the assembly of nanoscale wires and protein-functionalized nanogap contacts is described: Specifically, the use of DNA to template the assembly of gold nanowires between conventionally patterned gold contacts on a silicon wafer substrate. Also described is the use of DNA to template the assembly of protein-functionalized nanogap gold contacts on a silicon wafer substrate. Of particular significance is the finding that suitably modified gold nanoparticles recognize and bind selectively the protein-functionalized nanogap and are localized there. 相似文献
Transition metal complexes that reversibly bind to DNA have been studied for almost 30 years. In the last few years a variety of new systems have been developed, employing a range of metal ions and ligand architectures. In many cases, high affinity binding and specific selectivities have been observed. These complexes display properties that make them attractive as probes of DNA structure and function, suggesting that they may find a r?le as prototypical tools for a spectrum of applications, from basic molecular biology to medicine. This review presents an overview of some of the structures and properties of such complexes. 相似文献
Pyrolytic process has a promising potential for the environmentally friendly upgrading of lignocellulosic and plastic waste.
Thermogravimetry and pyrolysis-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (Py-GC/MS) were used to get information about the reactive
decomposition of PCL in binary mixtures with microcrystalline cellulose (MC) or sisal fibres (SF). Preliminary thermogravimetric
investigation showed that biomass is thermally degraded at lower temperatures than PCL and this process has a predominant
influence on the thermal behaviour of the mixtures. Discrepancies between the experimental and predicted TG/DTG profiles were
considered as a measurement of the extent of interactions occurring on co-pyrolysis. It was found that reactivity of PCL was
slightly increased in PCL-SF binary mixtures. Evolution of acidic products from cellulose and hemicelluloses decomposition
may promote PCL degradation in binary mixtures with SF. It seems that the co-pyrolysis process could have potential for the
environmentally friendly transformation of biocomposites. 相似文献
N(OMe)-linked disaccharide analogues, isosteric to the corresponding natural disaccharides, have been synthesized by chemoselective assembly of unprotected natural monosaccharides with methyl 6-deoxy-6-methoxyamino-alpha-D-glucopyranoside in an aqueous environment. The coupling reactions were found to be chemo- and stereoselective affording beta-(1-->6) disaccharide mimics when using Glc and GlcNAc; in the case of Gal, the beta-anomer was prevalent (beta:alpha=7:1). An iterative method for the synthesis of linear N(OMe) oligosaccharide analogues was demonstrated, based on the use of an unprotected monosaccharide building block in which an oxime functionality at C-6 is converted during the synthesis into the corresponding methoxyamino group. The conformational analysis of these compounds was carried out by using NMR spectroscopy, ab initio, molecular mechanics, and molecular dynamics methods. Optimized geometries and energies of fourteen conformers for each compound have been calculated at the B3LYP/6-31G* level. Predicted conformational equilibria were compared with the results based on NMR experiments and good agreement was found. It appears that N(OMe)-linked disaccharide analogues exhibit a slightly different conformational behavior to their parent natural disaccharides. 相似文献
