Project description:The iron-binding ability of apotransferrins is rapidly abolished in the reaction with periodate anions, which destroys 4 mol of tyrosine per mol of protein. Treatment of ovotransferrin with cyanogen bromide and tryptic digestion of the glycopeptide fragment demonstrated the existence of an intramolecular cross-link in the C-terminal domain of the oxidized protein. The cross-linked residues were identified as Tyr-421 and Tyr-524 and the product is similar in structure to 3,3'-dityrosine.

Project description:The synthesis of polynitrogen compounds is of fundamental importance due to their potential as environmentally-friendly high energy density materials. Attesting to the intrinsic difficulties related to their formation, only three polynitrogen ions, bulk stabilized as salts, are known. Here, magnesium and molecular nitrogen are compressed to about 50 GPa and laser-heated, producing two chemically simple salts of polynitrogen anions, MgN4 and Mg2N4. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction reveals infinite anionic polythiazyl-like 1D N-N chains in the crystal structure of MgN4 and cis-tetranitrogen N44- units in the two isosymmetric polymorphs of Mg2N4. The cis-tetranitrogen units are found to be recoverable at atmospheric pressure. Our results respond to the quest for polynitrogen entities stable at ambient conditions, reveal the potential of employing high pressures in their synthesis and enrich the nitrogen chemistry through the discovery of other nitrogen species, which provides further possibilities to design improved polynitrogen arrangements.

Project description:1,2,3-Triazolium salts are an important class of materials with a plethora of sophisticated applications. A series of three novel 1,3-dimethyl-1,2,3-triazolium salts with fluorine, containing anions of various size, is synthesized by methylation of 1,2,3-triazole. Their ion conductivity is measured by impedance spectroscopy, and the corresponding ionicities are determined by diffusion coefficients obtained from ¹H and 19F pulsed field gradient nuclear magnetic resonance (PFG NMR) spectroscopy data, revealing that the anion strongly influences their ion conductive properties. Since the molar ion conductivities and ionicities of the 1,3-dimethyl-1,2,3-triazolium salts are enhanced in comparison to other 1,2,3-triazolium salts with longer alkyl substituents, they are promising candidates for applications as electrolytes in electrochemical devices.

Project description:The synthesis of 4,5-diiodo-1,3-dimesityl-1,2,3-triazolium salts with different anions have been developed. These triazolium salts show diverse aggregation via halogen bonding between C-I bonds and anions. Triazolium with halide anions exists as a tetramer with saddle conformation. Triazolium tetrafluoroborate exists as a trimer with Chinese lantern shape conformation. Triazolium trifluoroacetate and acetate exist as dimers, respectively, while the former shows boat conformation and the latter forms rectangle conformation. Triazolium salts form a linear polymer with polyiodide.

Project description:Carbohydrate moieties were combined with various cross-linkable anions (thiocyanate [SCN], tetracyanoborate [TCB], tricyanomethanide [TCM], and dicyanamide [DCA]) and investigated as precursors for the synthesis of nitrogen-doped and nitrogen-/sulfur-co-doped carbons. The influence of the molecular structures of the precursors on their thermophysical properties and the properties of the derived carbon materials was elucidated and compared to petroleum-derived analogs. A carbohydrate-based ionic liquid featuring an [SCN] anion yielded more carbon residues upon carbonization than its 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium analog, and the resulting dual-doping of the derived carbon material translated to enhanced catalytic activity in the oxygen reduction reaction.

Project description:We report that metal salts composed of mixtures of anions of differing coordination strength can be used to increase the sensitivity and selectivity of adsorbate-induced anchoring transitions of liquid crystals (LCs) supported on surfaces decorated with the metal salts. Specifically, the dynamics of anchoring transitions triggered by the adsorbate dimethyl methylphosphonate (DMMP) on surfaces of aluminum(III) salts were analyzed within the framework of a model for mass transport to reveal that the sensitivity of a nitrile-containing nematic LC to DMMP increased from 250 to 25 ppb when the composition of the (counter) anion was changed from 100% perchlorate to 90% nitrate and 10% perchlorate (by mole percent). To provide insight into these observations, polarization-modulation infrared reflectance-absorbance spectroscopy (PM-IRRAS) was used to show that the intensity of the absorption band in the IR spectrum corresponding to the coordinated state of the nitrile group (but not the position of the peak) decreased with the increase in the mole fraction of the strongly coordinating anion (nitrate) in the anion mixture, thus suggesting that the addition of the strongly coordinating anion decreased the number of coordination interactions (per unit area of the interface) but not the strength of the individual coordination interactions between the metal cation and the LC. We also measured the incorporation of the nitrate anion into the metal salt to decrease the effect of humidity on the dynamic response of the LC to DMMP, a result that is consistent with weaker interactions between the nitrate anion and water as compared to the perchlorate anion and water. Finally, the bidentate anion acetylacetonate was measured to cause a similar increase in sensitivity to DMMP when mixed with perchlorate in a 1:1 ratio (the resulting sensitivity of the system to DMMP was 100 ppb). Overall, these results suggest that tailoring the identity of the anion represents a general and facile approach for tuning the orientational response of LCs supported on metal salts to targeted analytes.

Project description:Hexa-aqua-nickel(II) bis-(3-carb-oxy-4-hy-droxy-benzene-sulfonate) dihydrate, [Ni(H2O)6][C6H3(CO2H)(OH)SO3]2·2H2O, (I), crystallizes in the triclinic space group P with the nickel(II) aqua complexes on centers of inversion. The carboxyl-ate group is protonated and neither it nor the sulfonate group is involved in direct coordination to the metal ions. The structure consists of alternating layers of inorganic cations and organic anions linked by O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds that also include non-coordinated water mol-ecules of crystallization. The first-row divalent transition-metal salts of this anion are reported as both dihydrates and tetra-hydrates, with two distinct structures for the dihydrates that are both layered but differ in the hydrogen-bonding pattern. Compound (I) represents the second known example of one of these structures. Hexa-aqua-cobalt(II) bis-(3-carb-oxy-benzene-sulfonate) dihydrate, [Co(H2O)6][C6H4(CO2H)SO3]2·2H2O, (II), also crystallizes in triclinic P with the cobalt(II) aqua complexes on centers of inversion. The structure is also built of alternating layers of complex cations and organic anions without direct coordination to the metal by the protonated carboxyl-ate or unprotonated sulfonate groups. A robust O-H⋯O hydrogen-bonding network involving primarily the coordin-ated and non-coordinated water mol-ecules and sulfonate groups directs the packing. This is the first reported example of a divalent transition-metal salt of the 3-carb-oxy-benzene-sulfonate anion.

Project description:1. The chromogen formation from N-acetylneuraminic acid in the periodate-thiobarbituric acid reaction was investigated. Measurement of periodate consumption showed an uptake of approx. 3moles/mole of substrate in neutral as well as in strongly acidic solution. Therefore the chromogen beta-formylpyruvic acid is not a direct product of the periodate oxidation; it is presumed to be formed from the true oxidation product, a hexos-5-uluronic acid, by aldol splitting during the reaction in hot acidic solution with thiobarbituric acid. 2. Methyl (methyl beta-l-threo-hexos-4-enepyranosid)uronate, an analogue of the pre-chromogen, has been shown to yield with thiobarbituric acid in acidic solution a pigment exhibiting an identical absorption spectrum and showing the same behaviour on paper chromatography as the pigment obtained from N-acetylneuraminic acid in the periodate-thiobarbituric acid assay. 3. The substitution at C-2 of methoxyneuraminic acid does not inhibit the periodate-thiobarbituric acid reaction. In neutral solution methoxyneuraminic acid is oxidized by periodate to a substance that reacts readily with thiobarbituric acid in acidic solution. When periodate oxidation is attempted in acidic solution, protonation of the amino group protects this group against oxidation, rendering methoxyneuraminic acid negative in the assay systems of Warren (1959a,b) and Aminoff (1959, 1961).

Project description:Organodihydridoelement anions of germanium and tin were reacted with metallocene dichlorides of Group?4 metals Ti, Zr and Hf. The germate anion [Ar*GeH2 ]- reacts with hafnocene dichloride under formation of the substitution product [Cp2 Hf(GeH2 Ar*)2 ]. Reaction of the organodihydridostannate with metallocene dichlorides affords the reduction products [Cp2 M(SnHAr*)2 ] (M=Ti, Zr, Hf). Abstraction of a hydride substituent from the titanium bis(hydridoorganostannylene) complex results in formation of cation [Cp2 M(SnAr*)(SnHAr*)]+ exhibiting a short Ti-Sn interaction. (Ar*=2,6-Trip2 C6 H3 , Trip=2,4,6-triisopropylphenyl).

Project description:For the first time it is shown that exceptionally electron-rich arene rings can be fluorinated exclusively during the reductive elimination reactions of diaryliodonium fluorides. The 5-methoxy[2.2]paracyclophan-4-yl directing group simultaneously reduces unproductive aryne chemistry and eliminates ligand exchange reactions by a combination of steric and electronic effects. Use of the cyclophane directing group permits an unprecedented degree of control in fluorination reactions of diaryliodonium salts.
