The reaction of the sterically saturated uranium(III) tetrasilylamido complex [K(18c6)][U(N(SiMe3)(2))(4)] with CO2 leads to CO2 insertion into the U-N bond affording the stable U(IV) isocyanate complex [K(18c6)]U(N(SiMe3)(2))(3)(NCO)(2) that was crys ...
The in vitro activity of PA-824 and BTZ043 against 30 Nocardia brasiliensis isolates was tested. The MIC50 and MIC90 values for PA-824 were both > 64 mu g/ml. The same values for BTZ043 were 0.125 and 0.250 mu g/ml. Given the MIC values for benzothiazinone ...
Methyltransferases (MTases) form a large family of enzymes that methylate a diverse set of targets, ranging from the three major biopolymers to small molecules. Most of these MTases use the cofactor S-adenosyl-l-Methionine (AdoMet) as a methyl source. In r ...
A series of novel, surface-active, inorganometallic complexes of osmium were synthesized and then characterized (using electrochemical techniques) as electron transfer mediators for glucose oxidase (EC 1.1.3.4, GOD) from Aspergillus niger. The mediators co ...
The tetradentate chelate ligand tris[(1-vinylimidazol-2-yl)methyl]amine (10) was synthesized in five steps from commercially available starting materials. Upon reaction with MCl2 (M = Zn, Cu, Ni, Co) in the presence of NH4PF6, the complexes [M(10)Cl]PF6 (M ...
Phenyl-imidazole-based ligands with various substitution patterns have been used as the main ligand for heteroleptic bis-cyclometalated Iridium complexes. Two series of complexes have been prepared and their photophysical and electrochemical properties wer ...
Two novel tetra- and hexahydroxy functionalized perylene chromophores have been used as initiators for the Sn(oct)2 catalyzed ring-opening polymerization of different lactones. The arms of the resulting star polymers were comprised of either crystallizable ...
Experimental results on the fire endurance of full-scale glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) composite columns are reported in this paper. The pultruded four-cell profiles were first loaded to axial compression (uniform serviceability stress of 5 MPa) an ...
Despite decades of research on the fate of phenolic compounds when water is disinfected with hypochlorous acid (HOCl), there is still considerable uncertainty regarding the formation mechanisms and identity of ring cleavage products, especially at higher c ...
