Target factor analysis (TFA) has been used successfully with reaction data to determine, without knowledge of reaction kinetics, the number of independent reactions and the corresponding stoichiometries. This paper analyzes the applicability of TFA techniq ...
OPTIMIZATION OF A SEMI-BATCH REACTION SYSTEM UNDER SAFETY CONSTRAINTS O. Ubrich+, B. Srinivasan*, F. Stoessel+, D. Bonvin* * Novartis Services AG, CH-4002 Basel, Switzerland Institut d’ utomatique, Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne A CH-1015, Lausan ...
Formation of racemic pentose-2,4-bisphosphates is demonstrated, starting from glycolaldehyde phosphate and glyceraldehyde-2-phosphate, and induced by mixed valence double layer metal hydroxide minerals. The reactions proceed from dil. aq. reactant solns. ( ...
Homochiral Diels-Alder cyclodimerization of (+/-)-6-ethenyl-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5-en-2-endo-ol followed by oxidation gives (1RS,4RS,4aSR,4bSR,5RS,8RS,8aRS)-8a-ethenyl-1,3,4a,4b,5,6,8,8a,9-decahyd ro-11,4:5,8-diepoxyphenanthrene-2,7-dione (18). Selectiv ...
Math. description of metabolic systems allows the calcn. of the expected responses of metab. to genetic modifications and the identifications of the most promising targets for metabolic engineering. Metabolic control anal. (MCA) provides such a description ...
In aqueous oxidative processes with ozone (O-3), chlorine, or chloramine, naturally occurring iodide (I-) can easily be oxidized to hypoiodous acid (HOI) which can react with natural organic matter (NOM) or he further oxidized to iodate (IO3-). Such proces ...
The polymn. of isoprene induced by alkyl lithium compds. in hydrocarbon solvents is known to proceed with a high stereoselectivity to (Z)-1,4-polyisoprene. We have studied the initiation step of this reaction with the help of ab initio mol. dynamics simula ...
In the rearrangement of exo-2,10-dibromobornane to camphene it was demonstrated that even complex elimination processes which involve the breaking and making of several bonds can be brought about in a highly concerted fashion under variable push-pull contr ...
The basic photosynthetic unit contg. the reaction center and the light-harvesting I complex (RC-LHI) of the purple non-sulfur bacterium Rhodospirillum rubrum was purified and reconstituted into two-dimensional (2D) membrane crystals. Transmission electron ...
The three-dimensional (3D) structure of the reaction center (RC) complex isolated from the green sulfur bacterium Chlorobium tepidum was determined from projections of negatively stained preparations by angular reconstitution. The purified complex containe ...
