The acid-base chemistry that drives catalysis in pyridoxal-5'-phosphate (PLP)-dependent enzymes has been the subject of intense interest and investigation since the initial identification of PLP's role as a coenzyme in this extensive class of enzymes. It was first proposed over 50 years ago that the initial step in the catalytic cycle is facilitated by a protonated Schiff base form of the holoe...

in this work, bsea-sba-15 was prepared for the first time, which was prepared by covalently anchoring schiff-base compound (n,n´-bis(salicylidene)ethylenediamine (bsea) on sba-15 by hydrothermal method. the structure and physicochemical properties were determined by elemental analysis, xrd, nitrogen adsorption–desorption, thermogravimetric analysis and ftir spectroscopy, sem, bet surface area a...

Different Schemes for the synthesis of Schiff bases have been discussed. Solvent free synthesis by microwave irradiation technique is observed to be rapid, more efficient and more economical and at the same time may play a pivotal role in the progress of Schiff base synthesis. Mechanism for the synthesis of Schiff bases at controlled pH range has been studied. Biological functions of metal comp...

Two new symmetrical Schiff bases have been prepared by the condensation of ethylenediamine and two benzaldehyde derivatives, 2-hydroxybenzaldehyde and 2,4-dimethoxybenzaldehyde. The electronic transitions within these Schiff bases molecules in chloroform solvent have been investigated by UV-Vis spectroscopy. The 1H NMR and IR spectra were studied and assigned to related groups. Furthermore,...

The novel pyridine bearing schiff base substituted metal-free (9), zinc(II) phthalocyanine (10), and its quaternized derivative (11) were designed synthesized. These phthalocyanines fully characterized by spectroscopic methods (FT-IR, UV-Vis, MALDI-TOF, 1H NMR). photo-physicochemical properties of these investigated in both DMSO DMF for 10 aqueous solution 11. addition Schiff groups as peripher...

The structures of 5-aminolaevulinic acid dehydratase complexed with two irreversible inhibitors (4-oxosebacic acid and 4,7-dioxosebacic acid) have been solved at high resolution. Both inhibitors bind by forming a Schiff base link with Lys 263 at the active site. Previous inhibitor binding studies have defined the interactions made by only one of the two substrate moieties (P-side substrate) whi...

Schiff bases bearing an intramolecular hydrogen bond are known to undergo excited-state intramolecular proton transfer and E-Z isomerization, which are related to their thermochromism and solvatochromism properties. In this study, we explored these ultrafast photoinduced processes for two doubly hydroxylated Schiff bases, salicylidene-2-aminophenol and 2-hydroxynaphthylmethylidene-2-aminophenol...

Some Copper(II)-Manganese(II) trinuclear complexes of Schiff bases derived from 2aminobenzaldehyde and diamines are reported and characterized based on their elemental analyses, conductivity studies, IR, UV-Visible, ESR spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetric studies. The complexes are found to have the formula [Mn(CuL)2](CH3COO)2. The elemental analyses data confirms the formation of trinuclear c...

tris(3-bromo-acetylacetonato) chromium(iii) as an inert and very stable complex with a good leaving group was synthesized using as-prepared cr(acetylacetonate)3. highly ordered nanoporous silica (lus-1), with some great features, was functionalized with 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane. then the as-prepared product was modified with tris(3-bromo-acetylacetonato) chromium(iii) under mild reaction co...

Two-dimensional conjugated covalent organic frameworks (2D c-COFs) are emerging semiconductor materials for optoelectronic and photothermal applications. In particular, the highly tailorable, semiconducting thiophene-based 2D c-COFs have attracted considerable interest due to their nontrivial physicochemical properties such as photo-activity, broad optical absorption, tunable electronic structu...
