Enzymology in aqueous-organic cosolvent binary mixtures.
The theory and results of solvent structure control on solute behavior for ordinary chemical reactions, generated in other laboratories (e.g. by Arnett and colleagues), were applied to enzyme reactions in water-organic cosolvent binary mixtures. Three kinds of reactions were studied: (a) catalysis of substrate reactions; (b) denaturation, judged by loss of overall activity; (c) renaturation, ai...
متن کاملFlash-Point Prediction for Binary Partially Miscible Aqueous-Organic Mixtures
Flash point is the most important variable used to characterize fire and explosion hazard of liquids. Herein, partially miscible mixtures are presented within the context of liquid-liquid extraction processes and heterogeneous distillation processes. This paper describes development of a model for predicting the flash point of binary partially miscible mixtures of aqueous-organic system. To con...
متن کاملPoly (vinylpyrrolidone)-Grafted Silica as a Polymeric Cosolvent Catalyst for Organic Transformations in Organic and Aqueous Media
Poly (vinylpyrrolidone)-grafted silica as an organic-inorganic hybrid material was used as an effective heterogeneous polymeric cosolvent catalyst in organic reactions. This modified silica catalyzed nucleophilic displacement of alkyl halides for easy preparation of alkyl thiocyanates, alkyl cyanides, alkyl azides and alkyl aryl ethers. Furthermore, the catalyst was applied for the conversion o...
متن کاملStructural changes in block copolymer micelles induced by cosolvent mixtures.
We investigated the influence of tetrahydrofuran (THF) addition on the structure of poly(1,2-butadiene-b-ethylene oxide) [PB-PEO] micelles in aqueous solution. Our studies showed that while the micelles remained starlike, the micelle core-corona interfacial tension and micelle size decreased upon THF addition. The detailed effects of the reduction in interfacial tension were probed using contra...
متن کاملCatalytic activity of enzyme in water/organic cosolvent mixtures for the hydrolysis of p-nitrophenyl acetate and p-nitrophenyl benzoate
The dependence of the catalytic activities of α-chymotrypsin on the concentration of organic cosolvents (acetonitrile, dimethyl sulfoxide, dimethyl formamide, ethylene glycol, methanol, ethanol, propan-2-ol and tert-butanol) in mixed aqueous media has been studied towards hydrolysis of p-nitrophenyl acetate and p-nitrophenyl benzoate using cetyltriphenylphosphonium bromide surfactant at pH 7.75...
