The title compound, C(12)H(9)N(2) (+)·C(7)H(4)ClO(3) (-)·C(12)H(8)N(2)·C(7)H(5)ClO(3), contains one phenanthrolinium (Hphen) cation, one phenanthroline (phen) mol-ecule, one 4-chloro-2-hydroxy-benzoate anion (hcba) and one 4-chloro-2-hydroxy-benzoic acid (Hhcba) mol-ecule in the asymmetric unit. The phen mol-ecule is approximately parallel to Hphen, making a dihedral angle of 1.98 (6)°. The cen...

The metabolism of the nonessential amino acid proline contributes to tumor metabolic reprogramming. Previously we showed that MYC increases proline biosynthesis (PB) from glutamine. Here we show MYC increases the expression of the enzymes in PB at both protein and mRNA levels. Blockade of PB decreases tumor cell growth and energy production. Addition of Δ(1)-pyrroline-5-carboxylate (P5C) or pro...

The title compound, [Cu(C7H3NO4)(C5H6N2)(C3H7NO] n , is an amino-function-alized chiral metal-organic framework with (10,3)-a topology. It has been constructed via the assembly of the achiral triconnected pyridine-3,5-di-carboxyl-ate (3,5-PDC) building block and a triconnected Cu(II) atom. Each Cu(II) ion is coordinated by two O atoms and one N atom, respectively, of three crystallographically ...

We present the synthesis and characterization of alkali metal salts of the new tetraanionic, tetrapodal ligand 2,2'-(pyridine-2,6-diyl)bis(2-methylmalonate) (A4[PY(CO2)4], A = Li(+), Na(+), K(+), and Cs(+)), via deprotection of the neutral tetrapodal ligand tetraethyl 2,2'-(pyridine-2,6-diyl)bis(2-methylmalonate) (PY(CO2Et)4). The [PY(CO2)4](4-) ligand is composed of an axial pyridine and four ...

The influence of polymeric dispersants containing different functional groups on TiO2 pigment particle suspension was investigated at pH 6.0 and 9.5, using rheology and particle size data. The dispersants chosen were polyacrylic acid and modified polyacrylamides including homo and copolymers modified with carboxylate and/or hydroxyl groups. The pigment suspension was strongly affected by both p...

Abstract: Systematic studies on the substituent effect in para substituted Fe(CO)4–pyridine complexes have been studied on the basis of DFT quantum-chemical calculations. The following substituents were taken into consideration: NO2, CN, CHO, F, H, CH3, and OH. Additionally, the Fe–N and Fe–C bonds were characterized on the basis of Atoms in Molecules topological analysis of electron density. I...

4-n- prophyl- 1,2,4- triazoline-3-5- dione was synthesized from n-propylisocyanate and ethylhydrazine carboxylate in several steps. the title compound was isolated as pink crystals in high yield and purity. this compound was fully characterized by ir and h-nmr spectroscopy

a series of schiff bases of ni(ii) and cu(ii) using acetylacetone (acac), salicylaldehyde (sal), ethylenediamine (en), and o-phenylendiarnine (dabe) were prepared and characterized. the electronic spectra of some copper chelates in various organic solvents depend strongly on the solvent used and the d-d band of cu(ii) shifts to red with the increase of the donor number (dn) of solvent. the colo...
