Olefin Hydrogenation with Single-Site Gold

Butene hydrogenation activity is intimately connected with the occupied and unoccupied electronic states of gold active site. We prepare well-defined Au(III) sites in IRMOF-3 structure, and tuned the metal density-of-states by replacing the substituent gro ...

Enzyme and Acid Deconjugation of Plasma Sulfated Metanephrines

Sandrine Gerber

Background: Total (i.e. free + sulfated) metanephrines in plasma is a biomarker for the diagnosis of pheochromocytoma/paraganglioma. Sulfated metanephrines must be completely deconjugated by perchloric acid hydrolysis or sulfatase treatment prior to analyt ...

An examination of catalyst deactivation in p-chloronitrobenzene hydrogenation over supported gold

Lioubov Kiwi, Fernando Cardenas Lizana, Daniel André Samuel Lamey, Xiaodong Wang

The stability of Au/Al2O3 in the continuous gas phase (423 K) hydrogenation of p-chloronitrobenzene (p-CNB) to p-chloroaniline (p-CAN) has been investigated over an inlet H-2/p-CNB = 4-390, i.e. from close to stoichiometry to H2 far in excess. The catalyst ...

BODIPY-phosphane as a versatile tool for easy access to new metal-based theranostics

Angela Casini, Olivier Pierre Zava

A new BODIPY-phosphane was synthesized and proved to be a versatile tool for imaging organometallic complexes. It also led to easy access to a new family of theranostics, featuring gold, ruthenium and osmium complexes. The compounds' cytotoxicity was teste ...

Nano-Stenciled RGD-Gold Patterns That Inhibit Focal Contact Maturation Induce Lamellipodia Formation in Fibroblasts

Jürgen Brugger, Kristopher Pataky, Mattia Marelli

Cultured fibroblasts adhere to extracellular substrates by means of cell-matrix adhesions that are assembled in a hierarchical way, thereby gaining in protein complexity and size. Here we asked how restricting the size of cell-matrix adhesions affects cell ...
