The dependence of catalytic activities of secondary functional beta-cyclodextrins on cavity structures.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Secondary imidazole-appended beta-cyclodextrin 5 with a nondistorted cavity synthesized from a novel intermediate 3-amino-3-deoxy-beta-cyclodextrin exhibits much greater catalytic activity in the ester hydrolysis than its isomer 6 with a distorted cavity, indicating that the catalytic activities of secondary functional cyclodextrins are dependent on cavity structures.

Origin of Catalytic Activity Differences between Phosphine and Phosphine Oxide-Based Structures in the Water-Crosslinkable Polyalkoxysilane Composition
Organocatalysts have attracted enormous interest in the water-crosslinking reaction in silane-grafted polyolefins (SGPOs) system owing to their simplicity, low toxicity and environmentally benign nature compared to organotin catalysts, which are most used in SGPOs system. We focus on organophosphorus compounds including four structure types as organocatalysts; phosphoric acids, phosphoric ester...

A combined structural and functional model of the catalytic region of cellulose synthase is presented as a prototype for the action of processive beta-glycosyltransferases and other glycosyltransferases. A 285 amino acid segment of the Acetobacter xylinum cellulose synthase containing all the conserved residues in the globular region was subjected to protein modeling using the genetic algorithm...

In this study, the effect of the secondary structure of the protein on the acid strength of three structures of random (R), alpha helix (α) and beta sheet (b) were investigated theoretically. These structures are related to the cationic amino acids of histidine and lysine in the polypeptide chain of eight-glycine residue. Computational methods at the HF, B3LYP, X3LYP and M05-2X levels in t...

Actinomycetes are inexhaustible producers of commercially valuable metabolites, are continually screened for beneficial compounds. The taxonomic and phylogenetic study of novel actinomycetes strains are mostly based on conventional methods and primary DNA structure of 16s rRNA. Although 16s rRNA sequence is well accepted in phylogeny studies, its secondary structures have not been widely used. ...

In this study, electronic structures of ground state of pure vanadium sub-nano clusters, Vn (n=2-5), and their interactions with small ligands for example CO and triplet O2 molecules are investigated by using density functional theory (DFT) calibration at the mPWPW91/QZVP level of theory. The favorable orientations of these ligands in interaction with pure vanadium sub-nano clusters were determ...
