چکیده

The interaction of a tetracationic calixarene (TAC4) with dianionic guest (BS) in water was studied with NMR, nano-ITC and ESI-MS experiments; the convergent evidence provided by these different techniques shows that the addition of a suitable guest molecule triggers the formation of a homodimeric capsule in aqueous neutral solution.

Investigate formation constant of some Amino Acids by p-sulphonato-calix (4) arene in Aqueous Solution

The formation constants (log K), of the complexes formed between a number of amino acids(glycine , L-valine and L-alanine) with p-sulfonatocalix [4] arene at varying temperatures (25± 0.1to 65 ± 0.1 °C) in aqueous solutions and at natural pH of p-sulphonato-calix [4] arene (pH=3.2) bymeans of UV-Vis spectrophotometeric technique have been investigated. At this pH the guestmolecule is in its cat...

Proton-coupled electron transfer in the electrocatalysis of CO2 reduction: prediction of sequential vs. concerted pathways using DFT.

Herein we investigate computationally in detail the mechanism of the formation of the carboxylate adduct during the electroreduction of CO2 in water catalysed by cobalt porphyrin complexes. Specifically, we address qualitatively the competition between the concerted and sequential pathways for the proton-coupled electron transfer. We use a simple methodology for accurate computation of the pKa ...

Effect of pH on Structural Properties of Heat-Induced Whey Protein Gels

Formation and structure of whey protein heat-induced gels (100 mg mL-1) through heat treatment at 80 °C and pH modifications at three pH values of acidic (2), isoelectric (5.6) and neutral (7) were studied. The obtained results indicated that the nature of the primary gel networks was different at each pH value. The heat-induced gels produced at pH of 2 and 7, had acceptab...

Selective inclusion of PO4(3-) within persistent dimeric capsules of a tris(thiourea) receptor and evidence of cation/solvent sealed unimolecular capsules.

A tren-based tris(thiourea) receptor, L with electron-withdrawing p-nitrophenyl terminals has been established as a competent hydrogen-bonding scaffold that can selectively encapsulate PO(4)(3-) within persistent and rigid dimeric capsules, assembled by aromatic π-stacking interactions between the receptor side-arms. A quaternary ammonium salt of PO(4)(3-) capsules (complexes 1 and 1b, 2:1 host...
