Aqueous phase carbon dioxide and bicarbonate hydrogenation catalyzed by cyclopentadienyl ruthenium complexes

Paul Joseph Dyson, Gabor Laurenczy, Antoine Dorcier

The water-sol. ruthenium(II) complexes [Cp'RuX(PTA)2]Y and [CpRuCl(PPh3)(mPTA)]OTf (Cp' = Cp, Cp*, X = Cl and Y = nil; or X = MeCN and Y = PF6; PTA = 1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphaadamantane; mPTA = 1-methyl-1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphaadamantane) were used as catalyst ...

Role of zinc content on the catalytic efficiency of B1 metallo beta-lactamases

Matteo Dal Peraro

Metallo beta-lactamases (MbetaL) are enzymes naturally evolved by bacterial strains under the evolutionary pressure of beta-lactam antibiotic clinical use. They have a broad substrate spectrum and are resistant to all the clinically useful inhibitors, repr ...

Experimental and theoretical characterization of the Zn-Zn bond in [Zn2([eta]5-C5Me5)2]

Philip Pattison

The experimental electron density obtained from a multipole refinement of the synchrotron X-ray data for the title complex, together with theoretical ab initio calculations of the electron density at the molecular geometry obtained from neutron diffraction ...

The metallo-beta-lactamase GOB is a mono-Zn(II) enzyme with a novel active site

Matteo Dal Peraro

Metallo-beta-lactamases (MbetaLs) are zinc-dependent enzymes able to hydrolyze and inactivate most beta-lactam antibiotics. The large diversity of active site structures and metal content among MbetaLs from different sources has limited the design of a pan ...

A Promising Technique to Increase Metal Concentration and Extraction in Sunflowers

Jean-Paul Schwitzguebel, Erika Nehnevajova

Since most of the metal-hyperaccumulating wild plants only produce very low biomass and many high-yielding crops accumulate only moderate amounts of metals, the current research is mainly focused on overcoming these limitations and the optimization of meta ...

A Metallacage Encapsulating Chloride as a Probe for a Solvation Scale in Ionic Liquids

Paul Joseph Dyson, Corinne Daguenet

With the purpose of assessing the reactivity of chloride ions dissolved in ionic liquids (ILs), a relative scale for the solvation of chloride is given for a series of ILs based on the bis(trifluoromethane)sulfonimide ([Tf2N]) anion and differen ...

A 300 W solar chemical pilot plant for the carbothermic production of zinc

Aldo Steinfeld

In the framework of the EU-project SOLZINC, a 300-kW solar chemical pilot plant for the production of zinc by carbothermic reduction of ZnO was experimentally demonstrated in a beam-down solar tower concentrating facility of Cassegrain optical configuratio ...

Unconventional Catalytic Mechanism for histone deacetylase suggested by a DFT-QM/MM study

Histone deacetylases (HDACs) constitute an important family of zinc-dependent enzymes responsible for catalyzing the cleavage of acetyl groups from acetyl-lysine residues in histone N-terminal tails. HDACs can potentially play a key role treating various c ...

Tailoring of the practical adhesion between polyethylene and galvanised steel

Véronique Michaud, Gabrielle Pax

Abstract—The practical adhesion of maleic anhydride grafted polyethylene (MAH-PE) to galvanised steel was studied using 3-point flexure tests, before and after hydrothermal ageing. Before bonding, the electro-galvanised steel was treated with γ -aminopropy ...

Biphasic Hydrosilylation in Ionic Liquids: A Process Set for Industrial Implementation

Paul Joseph Dyson, Gabor Laurenczy, Dongbin Zhao

The biphasic hydrosilylation of 1-hexadecene with siloxane B9800 in a range of ionic liqs. is reported. Of the ionic liqs. tested, [C4py][BF4] and [C4-3-pic][BF4] offer the optimum compromise between activity and ...
