Gas phase reactions of mass-selected acylium ions [CH3–C ¢O (1), CH2¢CH–C ¢O (2), C6H5–C ¢O (3), and (CH3)2N–C ¢O (4)] with nitriles (CH3CN, C2H5CN, CH2¢CHCN, and C6H5CN) were investigated using pentaquadrupole multiple-stage mass spectrometry. In analogy with the solution behavior, the ions were found to react readily with benzonitrile by cyclization via double nitrile addition to form aromati...

Nitrile hydratases (NHases) are mononuclear nonheme enzymes that catalyze the hydration of nitriles to amides. NHase is unusual in that it utilizes a low-spin (LS) FeIII center and a unique ligand set comprised of two deprotonated backbone amides, cysteine-based sulfenic acid (RSO(H)) and sulfinic acid (RSO2-), and an unmodified cysteine trans to an exogenous ligand site. Electron paramagnetic ...

In the title compound, C20H20N4O2·H2O, the planes of the phen-oxy and phthalo-nitrile rings are oriented at a dihedral angle of 60.39 (5)°. The 3-(di--methyl-amino)-propyl chain has an extended conformation and is cis with respect to the phthalo-nitrile ring. In the crystal, O-H⋯O, O-H⋯N and N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the mol-ecules to form slabs parallel to (100). There are also C-H⋯O and C-H⋯N...

The title compound, C(7)H(4)BrNO, crystallizes with two mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit. The two molecules exhibit nearly linear C-C N nitrile bond angles of 179.1 (4) and 177.1 (4)°. In the crystal, the mol-ecules are linked into a one-dimensional hydrogen-bonded chain by inter-actions between the phenol H atom and the nitrile N atom [N⋯O = 2.805 (4) and 2.810 (4) Å].

In the mononuclear title complex, [CuI(CH3CN)(C18H15P)2], the Cu(I) ion is in a distorted tetra-hedral geometry, coordinated by two P atoms of two tri-phenyl-phosphane ligands, one N atom of an aceto-nitrile ligand and one iodide anion. The aceto-nitrile ligand is disordered over two sets of sites in a 0.629 (15): 0.371 (15) ratio. In the crystal, weak C-H⋯I hydrogen bonds link the mol-ecules, ...

NOTE: *These temperature ranges will apply to the majority of media for which the material is potentially recommended. With some media however, the service temperature range may be significantly different. ALWAYS TEST UNDER ACTUAL SERVICE CONDITIONS. Nitrile (General Service) -34°C to 121°C (-30°F to 250°F)* Nitrile (Low Temperature) -55°C to 107°C (-65°F to 225°F)* Hydrogenated Nitrile -32°C t...

This study presents a new reaction of cationic vinylidene complexes with Me₃SiN₃ (TMSN₃), which yields N-coordinated nitrile complexes 3. Treatment of a ruthenium acetylide precursor containing indenyl and dppe ligands with a series of organic halides produced the corresponding vinylidene complexes 2 in good yield. Further reaction of 2 with TMSN₃ at room temperature produced N-coordinated ruth...
