^1h Nmr Studies Of Some Imidazole Ligands Coordinated To Co(Iii), Kosrow Zamani, Akbar Mobinikhaledi, Naser Foroughifar, Khalil Faghihi, Vahid Mahdavi

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Chemical shifts for proton signals of an imidazole ring coordinated to Co(III) move downfield as the total complex charge increases. However, the C_{(2) - H} chemical shift of the imidazole ring in cis-[Co(en)_{2}(N-mIm) OPO_{3}H]°, which has no charge compared to those of cis-[Co(en)_{2}(N-mIm) OPO_{3}H]^{+} and cis}-[Co(en)_{2}(N-mIm) OPO_{3}H_{2}]^{2 +} , moves downfield. These unexpected phenomena could be attributed to an intramolecular interaction between the phosphate anion group and C_{(2) - H} of the imidazole ligand.

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

The Co(II), Ni(II) and Cu(II) complexes of anilino-p-chlorophenylglyoxime were synthesised. The thermal behaviour of all complexes was studied by DTA and TG. It was found that pyrolytic decomposition occurs with melting in metal complexes and that metal oxides remain as final products of the metal complexes. A GC-MS combined system was used to identify the products during pyrolytic decomposition. The pyrolytic end products were identified by x-ray powder diffraction. The orders, n, the activation energies, E^*, the pre-exponential factors, A, and the entropies, \Delta S^*, of thermal decomposition reactions were derived from thermogravimetric and differential thermogravimetric curves.

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Trichloro-, tribromo- and trifluoro- acetic acids were both conductimetrically and potentiometrically titrated in acetonitrile and 2-propanol media. The titrations were carried out at 25°C under nitrogen atmosphere and titrants used were the solutions of triethyl, di-n-butyl and n-butyl amines prepared in the same solvents. Whether these acids gave a homoconjugation reaction during titration was investigated by the use of conductimetric and potentiometric titration curves. In acetonitrile media trichloro- and tribromo-acetic acids decomposed to give chloroform and carbon dioxide, and bromoform and carbon dioxide respectively. It was observed that the acid concentration and the type of titrant used had no effect …

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

The photoelectrochemical determination of ascorbic acid (AA) was studied based on the photochemical reduction of methylene blue (MB) in 0.1 M phosphate buffer (pH 7.0). MB was used as a redox mediator for the modification of a carbon paste electrode (CPE) due to its facile reducible-oxidizible behaviour. Muscovite, which has a layered structure, was found to be a good and stable supporting material for the immobilization of MB by an ion exchange reaction. The dye is strongly retained and not easily leached from the matrix. MB was reduced to nearly quasi-reversible at the modified carbon paste electrode (MCPE). The oxidation …

Production Of An E. Coli Toxin Protein; Colicin A In E. Coli Using An Inducible System, İsa Gökçe, Jeremy H. Lakey

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Colicins are bacterial toxins that kill Escherichia coli and related cells; their mode of action is of interest in protein import and toxicology. Colicins translocate across the E. coli outer membrane and periplasm by interacting with several receptors. This translocation process involves interaction of the colicin with the outer membrane porin OmpF and subsequently with the integral membrane protein TolA. The N-terminal domain of colicin N is involved in the import process. Our aim was to produce a large quantity of colicin A for functional and structural studies. It is a prerequisite to have a correctly folded and stable protein …
