Die Kristallstruktur des l, 6-8, 13-Bis-oxido-[14]-annulens

Crystals of 1,6-8, 13-bis-oxido-[14]-annulene are monoclinic, a = 9,29, b = 9,74, c = 11,46 Å, β = 90,0°, space group P 2₁/c, with 4 molecules in the unit cell. The structure has been solved by direct methods and refined by full-matrix least-squares analysis of three-dimensional intensity data. The cis-configuration of the two oxygen bridges is confirmed, and the observed molecular parameters are in full accord with the aromatic properties of the molecule.

Divinyl Sulfoxide: XI. Selective Addition of Carbonodithioate Anions to Divinyl Sulfoxide in the Water-Benzene System

Selective monoaddition of carbonodithioate anions to divinyl sulfoxide gives rise to O-alkyl S-[2-(vinylsulfinyl)ethyl] carbonodithioates [ROC(S)SK, R = Et, Bu; 42–50°C, 6 h, NaHCO₃, aqueous benzene].     

Synthesis and electrochemical applications of fluorinated vinylazole copolymers for monitoring NO in model and biological systems

Copolymers of 1-vinyl-1,2,4-triazole and 5-vinyltetrazole with 1,1,5-trihydrooctafluoropentyl methacrylate and 1,1,7-trihydrododecafluoroheptyl methacrylate were prepared under the conditions of radical initiation. These copolymers were used for modification of the surface of a glassy carbon electrode, and the effect of the modification on the electrochemical behavior of the electrode in anodic oxidation of dopamine and NO was studied. The possibility of enhancing the selectivity of the electrochemical sensor for monitoring NO in biological media was demonstrated.     

Organoinorganic composites based on tetraethoxysilane and nitrogen polybases

Hybrid organoinorganic composites insoluble in water and organic solvents were prepared by the hydrolysis of tetraethoxysilane in the presence of poly-1-vinylpyrazole, poly-1-vinylimidazole, and poly-4-vinylpyridine. The composition of the composites was determined by the nature of the polymeric nitrogen base and hydrolysis conditions. The composites synthesized showed high sorption activity in the extraction of the [PdCl₄]^2?, [PtCl₆]^2?, and [AuCl₄]^? ions from hydrochloric acid solutions.     

Development of Ways To Diminish Corrosion of Zinc Electrode

The influence exerted by addition of -hydroxynaphthoic acid and combined additive Hg + Pb + -hydroxynaphthoic acid on the corrosion and self-discharge of a porous zinc electrode in alkali solution was studied.     

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.     

Influence Exerted by Pyrite Impurity in the Initial Graphite on Properties of Residual Graphite Hydrosulfates

The influence exerted by the particle size and the distribution of sol impurities in the initial graphite, and also by pyrite additives, on the properties of residual graphite hydrosulfates synthesized by oxidation in the CrO₃-H₂SO₄ system was studied.
