Structure and catalytic activity of metal complexes fixed on carriers. Hydrodehalogenation of p-bromotoluene with chemically bonded hydrogen,catalyzed by immobilized rhodium(II) complexes

The structure of Rh(II) complexes with vigorous ligands immobilized on -aminopropyl-containing silicagel (-AMPS) and polymers containing 3(5)-methyl-pyrazole and imidazole groups, was investigated. It was shown by IR spectroscopy that the ligand surroundings are maintained after application only for the Rh(II) acetate complex. For the acetonitrile and hexafluoroacetylacetonate complexes there is a replacement of the ligands by amino groups of the carrier. [Rh₂(O₂CCH₃)₄] is significantly more active than other metal complexes immobilized on -AMPS in the hydrodehalogenation of p-bromotoluene by transfer of hydrogen from NaBH₄ and propanol-2.N. D.

Thermal stability and energy of deactivation of free and immobilized amyloglucosidase in the saccharification of liquefied cassava starch

Amyloglucosidase from Novo (Copenhagen, Denmark) was immobilized in controlled pore silica particles with the silane-glutaraldehyde covalent method. Thermal stability of the free and immobilized enzyme (IE) was determined with 30% (w/v) α-amylase liquefied cassava starch, pH 4.5, temperatures from 35 to 75°C. Free amyloglucosidase maintained its activity practically constant for 240 min and temperatures up to 50°C. The IE has shown higher stability retaining its activity for the same period up to 60°C. Half-life for free enzyme was 20.6, 6.44, 2.07, 0.69, and 0.24 h for 55, 60, 65, 70, and 75°C, respectively, whereas the IE at the same temperatures had half-lives of 116.4, 30.88, 8.52, 2.44, and 0.73 h. The energy of thermal deactivation was thus 50.6 and 57.6 kcal/mol, respectively for the free and IE, confirming stabilization by immobilization.

Enzymatic synthesis of medium chain monoglycerides in a solvent-free system

The synthesis of monocaprin, monolaurin, and monomyristin in a solvent-free system was conducted by mixing a commercial immobilized lipase with the organic reactants (glycerol and fatty acids) in a 20-mL batch reactor with constant stirring. The effects of temperature, fatty acid/glycerol molar ratio, and enzyme concentration on the reaction conversion were determined. The addition of molecular sieves in the assays of monomyristin synthesis was also evaluated. The reactions were carried out for 5 to 6 h and the nonpolar phase was analyzed by gas chromatography. The best results in terms of selectivity and conversion (defined as the percentage of fatty acid consumed) were achieved when the stoichiometric amount of reagents (molar ratio=1) and 9% (w/w) commercial enzyme were used and the reaction was performed at 60°C. The addition of molecular sieves did not improve the synthesis of monomyristin. Conversions as high as 80%, with monoglycerides being the major products, were attained. After 5 h of reaction, the concentration of monoglyceride was about twice that of diglyceride, and only trace amounts of triglyceride were found. The results illustrate the technical possibility of producing medium chain monoglycerides in a solvent-free medium using a simple batch reactor.

Quantification of Tin and Lead in Binary Alloys Using Voltammetry of Immobilized Microparticles

Voltammetry of immobilized microparticles (VMP) has been used in this work for the quantitative determination of tin and lead particles in their binary alloys. Carbon paste electrodes, which contained small amounts of tin and lead or their mixtures, were used as working electrodes and square wave voltammograms of each electrode were recorded. Quantification was performed using optimum experimental conditions, obtained by an experimental design technique. The calibration was made by measuring the percentage peak height of each metal taking the sum of peak currents of the both metals as 100 %. The results were compared with quantitative results of X‐ray fluorescence (XRF) technique to evaluate the capability of VMP method in its quantitative determination of solid samples.     

A Split-Flow Enzyme Thermistor

Abstract

The split-flow system is comprised of two identical micro-columns, one of which contains an immobilized enzyme preparation, the other an inert support material.

The heat produced in each column on introduction of a sample is measured with thermistors placed in these columns. The use of a reference column virtually eliminates the influence on the measurements of artifactual signals as unspecific heat, i.e., heat not produced by the enzymic reaction. The performance of the split-flow enzyme thermistor at a variety of pH's, ionic strengths or viscosities associated with the sample has been investigated and compared with previously described alternative enzyme thermistor arrangements. In this comparative study glucose at a concentration of 5 · 10^?4 M was used throughout. On passage through the imnobilized glucose oxidase preparation this solution gave rise to a heat change At of about 0.01°C. The insensitivity of the system described herein towards such variations makes it particularly suitable for the analysis of metabolities present in crude solutions such as urine and skim-milk.     

Synthesis,characterization and heterogeneous catalytic application of a nickel(II) Schiff base complex immobilized on MWCNTs for the Hantzsch four-component condensation

A nickel(II) Schiff base complex immobilized on multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) surface as a highly efficient heterogeneous catalyst was synthesized and characterized by IR, X-ray diffraction patterns, scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, inductively coupled plasma, elemental analysis, and thermal gravimetric analysis. Then a facile and environmentally benign procedure was developed for synthesis of polyhydroquinoline derivatives via Hantzsch one-pot condensation reaction of aromatic aldehydes, 1,3-diones, ethyl acetoacetate, and ammonium acetate in the presence of above synthesized catalyst under solvent-free conditions. This protocol has the advantages of stability, easy availability, recyclability and eco-friendly nature of catalyst, simple experimental and work-up procedure, and also high to excellent yields. Considering the solvent-free condition and also temperature, time, and yield of the model reaction, the nanocatalyst reported here is among the best catalysts reported so far for synthesis of polyhydroquinolines.     

Synthesis,characterization and applications of polysiloxane networks with immobilized pyrogallol ligands

A porous, solid insoluble polysiloxane‐immobilized ligand system bearing pyrogallol active sites of the general formula P? (CH₂)₃? NH(CH₂)₃OC₆H₃(OH)₂ (where P represents [Si? O]_n siloxane network) has been prepared by the reaction of 3‐aminopropylpolysiloxane with 1,3‐dibromopropane followed by the reaction with pyrogallol. ¹³C CP‐MAS NMR and X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy confirmed that the pyrogallol is chemically bonded to the siloxane backbone. Thermal analysis showed that the ligand system is stable under nitrogen at relatively high temperature. The polysiloxane–pyrogallol ligand system exhibits high potential for the uptake of the metal ions (Fe³⁺, Co²⁺, Ni²⁺ and Cu²⁺). Complexation of the pyrogallol ligand system for the metal ions at the optimum conditions was found to be in the order Fe³⁺ > Cu²⁺ > Ni²⁺ > Co²⁺. Copyright © 2005 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
