Parallel G-quadruplexes formed from oligonucleotide sequences, d(TTAGn), where n = 3-5, have been shown to form a dimer through end-to-end stacking of 3'-terminal G-tetrads. The monomers and dimers of the G-quadruplexes are in dynamic equilibrium with an exchange rate of approximately 1 s-1. A thermodynamic study demonstrated that the dimerization of the G-quadruplexes is largely enthalpic in origin. 相似文献
Copolymerizations of N-vinylcarbazole with both isobutyl vinyl ether and N-vinyl-pyrrolidone initiated by some organic electron acceptors have been investigated for the purpose of elucidating the propagation mechanism in the charge-transfer polymerization. Copolymerizations of the same system catalyzed by authentic cationic catalysts have also been made for comparison. The results indicate that the propagation mechanism of the charge-transfer polymerization studied is catio ie. 相似文献
Paramagnetic NMR and optical studies of the oxidized forms of mesophile Pseudomonas aeruginosa cytochrome c(551) and its quintuple mutant (F7A/V13M/F34Y/E43Y/V78I), and thermophile Hydrogenobacter thermophilus cytochrome c(552) demonstrated that the amino acid side chain packings in the protein interior influence the coordination bond between the heme iron and the axial methionine in the proteins. The strength of heme axial coordinations was found to correlate with the overall protein thermostability. 相似文献
A coordination polymer [Zn(pyta)(OH)] (pyta = 4-pyridylthioacetate), was synthesized and structurally characterized; it is constructed by an alternating assembly of two types of homo-chiral helices, [Zn-OH] and [Zn-pyta], in which the sulfide moieties are fastened in the latter columns. 相似文献
A practical search system for proton n.m.r. spectra is reported. The coding rules and search algorithms are described in detail. Data for 8000 spectra have been converted into a computer-readable file from printed charts. Several search tests are used to evaluate the usefulness of the search system, and various effects of experimental conditions such as different instruments, frequencies and solvents on recall efficiency are described. The results presented indicate that the system should be applicable to routine analytical work. 相似文献
The methyl transfer occurring in the production of methyl N,N-dimethyl-γ-aminobutyrate by pyrolysis of carpronium chloride was examined by means of pyrolysis gas chromatography mass spectrometry with the aid of some deuterated compounds. The mass spectra of methyl N,N-dimethyl-γ-aminobutyrate, produced from deuterated derivatives of carpronium chloride, showed inter alia, characteristic molecular ion peaks which indicated that the methyl of the trimethylammonium group transfers and displaces the methyl of the carbomethoxy group of the tertiary amino compound. The results show that an intermolecular methyl transfer occurs in part on pyrolysis of carpronium chloride, to form methyl N,N-dimethyl-γ-aminobutyrate in which the methyl oxygen is replaced by a methyl from the nitrogen of the original compound. The mechanism presented involves the bimolecular reaction between zwitterionic intermediates formed by ionic O-demethylation of carpronium chloride. 相似文献
Upon irradiation (>340 nm) of a benzene solution of diazofluorene with di-p-tolyl- or di-p-anisyl disulfide, the corresponding 9,9′-bis(arylmercapto)bifluorenyl was afforded in moderate to good yield accompanied by formation of 9,9′-bis(arylmercapto)fluorene. The major reaction pathway is considered to be a disulfur ylide formation followed by two times of successive Stevens rearrangement or by concerted electron redistribution via [2,3]sigmatropic rearrangement. 相似文献
The mechanism of the pyrolysis reaction of carpronium chloride [(CH3)3N+? (CH2)3? COOCH3CI?] leading to γ-butyrolactone and tetramethylammonium chloride was investigated by means of thermal analysis, pyrolysis gas chromatography mass spectrometry and field desorption mass spectrometry, using deuterium labelling. The results indicated that carpronium chloride pyrolysed to yield equimolar amounts of γ-butyrolactone and tetramethylammonium chloride, methyl transfer occurred between N and O during the pyrolysis process. The mechanism is discussed on the basis of the experimental results, and with the aid of the theoretical results calculated by the CNDO/2 method. The mechanism presented is as follows. γ-Butyrolactone is formed by the intramolecular migration of the π-orbital of C?O to the carbon adjacent to [(CH3)3N]+ via a 5-membered ring transition state, accompanied by a bimolecular reaction between [(CH3)3N]+ and the CH3 of O? CH3, resulting in the formation of tetramethylammonium chloride in an amount equimolar with γ-butyrolactone. 相似文献
Reversible construction of a nanoporous framework from a nonporous framework has been found in the zinc(II) coordination polymer with 4,4'-oxybis(benzoate) (oba). [Zn(2)(oba)(2)(dmf)(2)].2DMF (1), which has 1 nm scale channels, transforms to the nonporous coordination polymer [Zn(oba)(H(2)O)] (2) with the loss of the open framework. Compound 2 on treatment with DMF reversibly yields nanoporous compound 1. 相似文献
A vinyl‐functionalized polyphosphate (PIOP) was synthesized by ring‐opening polymerization of 2‐isopropyl‐2‐oxo‐1,3,2‐dioxaphospholane and 2‐(2‐oxo‐1,3,2‐dioxaphosphoroyloxyethyl methacrylate) with triisobutylaluminum as an initiator. The number‐averaged molecular weight of the PIOP was 1.2 × 104. The average number of vinyl groups in the PIOP is 2.20. Transparent hydrogels were prepared by the radical polymerization of 2‐methacryroyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine with PIOP as a cross‐linking reagent. These hydrogels may have many applications in the biomedical field because of their biodegradability and biocompatibility.
