چکیده
The new compound Cs10P8Se20 features the heterotetracyclic [P3Se7] 3anion, a phosphorus-rich four-membered-ring species that possesses a P-P-P unit and formally P3þ and P4þ centers. It crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pnnm with a = 26.5456(7) Å, b = 8.0254(2) Å, c = 11.9031(4) Å, and Z = 2 at 100(2) K. The cyclic anion is cocrystallized with a [P2Se6] 4anion. Electronic absorption, Raman, Fourier transform infrared, and solid-state P NMR spectroscopy studies of Cs10P8Se20 are reported.

[P6Se12]4-: a phosphorus-rich selenophosphate with low-valent P centers.
The new selenophosphate Rb4P6Se12 features the trans-decalin-like, [P6Se12]4- anion, a phosphorus-rich species that possesses three parallel P-P bonds and formally P2+ and P4+ centers. The synthesis of Rb4P6Se12 was accomplished with the reductive addition of P to RbPSe6 and represents an interesting example of how alkali chalcophosphates can serve as starting materials to produce new compounds...

The structural diversity found in the chalcophosphate family is extensive. Various selenophosphate anions [PxQy] z2 (Q = S, Se) have been isolated and structurally characterized, for example, [PSe4] , [P2Se6] , [P2Se9] , [P8Se18] , a-[P6Se12] , 1 ‘[PSe6 ] and ‘[P2Se6 ]. The most common oxidation states of P in selenophosphates are P and P. Members of this family can exhibit the technologically ...
متن کاملCatalytic properties of selenophosphate synthetases: comparison of the selenocysteine-containing enzyme from Haemophilus influenzae with the corresponding cysteine-containing enzyme from Escherichia coli.
The selD gene from Haemophilus influenzae has been overexpressed in Escherichia coli. The expressed protein was purified to homogeneity in a four-step procedure and then carboxymethylated by reaction with chloroacetate. N-terminal sequencing by Edman degradation identified residue 16 as carboxymethyl selenocysteine, which corresponded to the essential cysteine residue in the glycine-rich sequen...

In Escherichia coli and Salmonella typhimurium it has been shown that selenophosphate serves as the selenium donor for the conversion of seryl-tRNA to selenocysteyl-tRNA and for the synthesis of 2-selenouridine, a modified nucleoside present in tRNAs. Although selenocysteyl-tRNA also is formed in eukaryotes and is used for the specific insertion of selenocysteine into proteins, the precise mech...
متن کاملStructural insights into the catalytic mechanism of Escherichia coli selenophosphate synthetase.
Selenophosphate synthetase (SPS) catalyzes the synthesis of selenophosphate, the selenium donor for the biosynthesis of selenocysteine and 2-selenouridine residues in seleno-tRNA. Selenocysteine, known as the 21st amino acid, is then incorporated into proteins during translation to form selenoproteins which serve a variety of cellular processes. SPS activity is dependent on both Mg(2+) and K(+)...
