Influence of the water molecule on cation-pi interaction: ab initio second order Møller-Plesset perturbation theory (MP2) calculations

The influence of introducing water molecules into a cation-pi complex on the interaction between the cation and the pi system was investigated using the MP2/6-311++G method to explore how a cation-pi complex changes in terms of both its geometry and its binding strength during the hydration. The calculation on the methylammonium-benzene complex showed that the cation-pi interaction is weakened by introducing H(2)O molecules into the system. For example, the optimized interaction distance between the cation and the benzene becomes longer and longer, the transferred charge between them becomes less and less, and the cation-pi binding strength becomes weaker and weaker as the water molecule is introduced one by one. Furthermore, the introduction of the third water molecule leads to a dramatic change in both the complex geometry and the binding energy, resulting in the destruction of the cation-pi interaction. The decomposition on the binding energy shows that the influence is mostly brought out through the electrostatic and induction interactions. This study also demonstrated that the basis set superposition error, thermal energy, and zero-point vibrational energy are significant and needed to be corrected for accurately predicting the binding strength in a hydrated cation-pi complex at the MP2/6-311++G level. Therefore, the results are helpful to better understand the role of water molecules in some biological processes involving cation-pi interactions.     

Modeling the dynamics of DNA electrophoresis on a flat surface

We use molecular dynamics simulations to study the mechanism by which a flat, homogeneous surface can serve as an electrophoretic separation medium for DNA. We find that the mobility of DNA on the surface is a function of the conformation of the adsorbed DNA molecule, and that this mobility is controlled by the attraction between the DNA and the surface. Our results will provide guidelines for the fabrication of surfaces that can be used to separate DNA in a wide size range.     

Sorption of 241Am by Aspergillus nigerspore and hyphae

Biosorption of ²⁴¹Am by a fungus A. niger, including the spore and hyphae, was investigated. The preliminary results showed that the adsorption of ²⁴¹Am by the microorganism was efficient. More than 96% of the total ²⁴¹Am could be removed from ²⁴¹Am solutions of 5.6-111 MBq/l (C _o) by spore and hyphaeof A. niger, with adsorbed ²⁴¹Am metal (Q) of 7.2-142.4 MBq/g biomass, and 5.2-106.5 MBq/g, respectively. The biosorption equilibrium was achieved within 1 hour and the optimum pH range was pH 1-3. No obvious effects on ²⁴¹Am adsorption by the fungus were observed at 10-45 °C, or in solutions containing Au³⁺ or Ag⁺, even 2000 times above the ²⁴¹Am concentration. The ²⁴¹Am biosorption by the fungus obeys the Freundlich adsorption equation. There was no significant difference between the adsorption behavior of A. nigerspore and hyphae. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

A zwitterion of 1,5‐bis­(2‐hydroxy­benzamido)‐3‐aza­pentane: a two‐dimensional hydrogen‐bonding network involving dimers

The title compound, 2‐{N‐[2‐(2‐hydroxy­benzamido)ethyl­ammonio­ethyl]amino­carbon­yl}phenolate, C₁₈H₂₁N₃O₄, crystallizes in a zwitterionic form as a result of inter­molecular proton transfer and possesses a negatively charged phenolate group and a protonated amino group. The 2‐hydroxy­benzamide and 2‐(amino­carbonyl)­phenolate moieties attached to the two ends of the C—C—N—C—C backbone adopt a cis conformation in relation to this backbone. All N‐ and O‐bound H atoms are involved in hydrogen‐bond formation; the zwitterions are first linked into head‐to‐tail dimers, which are further organized into a two‐dimensional network parallel to the crystallographic bc plane.     

A study of the polarographic behaviour of meso-tetra(4-trimethylammoniumphenyl)porphine and its copper and magnesium complexes and its analytical applications

The investigation of the electrochemical reduction and the adsorption of meso-tetra(4-trimethylammoniumphenyl)porphine (T(4-TMAP)P) at a mercury electrode in alkaline solution shows that the overall reduction involves three two-electron steps, of which the first step is reversible and the latter two are irreversible. In addition, T(4-TMAP)P and its metal complexes of Cu(II) and Mg(II) can be strongly adsorbed on the surface of a mercury electrode. The adsorption phenomena have been utilized as a preconcentration step for the determination of trace amounts of the two ions by single sweep polarography. For copper, the detection limit is 1 × 10^–8 mol dm^–3, for magnesium, 1 × 10^–7 mol dm^–3, the latter being limited by the reagent blank. The proposed method was applied to the determination of Cu and Mg in various types of samples (chemicals, hair and liver tissues) with satisfactory results.
