The addition of AlCl3 to four-coordinate boranes of the general formula (C-N-chelate)BCl2 results in halide abstraction and formation of three-coordinate borenium cations of the general formula [(C-N-chelate)BCl]+. The latter react with both arylstannanes and arylsilanes by boro-destannylation and -desilylation, respectively, to form arylated boranes. Catalytic quantities of AlCl3 were sufficie...

Study of the nuclear magnetic resonance spectra of glyoxaldihydrazone in dimethylsulfoxide and deuterochlorofonn leads to the conclusion that this compound exists predominantly in non-chelate structure

A series of heteroleptic strontium complexes (1-9) using a combination of different aminoalkoxides and 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-3,5-heptanedionate (tmhd) were prepared to examine the effect of the bulkiness and coordination ability of the aminoalkoxide ligand in these complexes as well as potential strontium precursors. All complexes were characterized by FT-IR, FT-NMR, elemental analyses, and therm...

In the solvent extraction of metal cations into ionic liquids, use of Brønsted acid-type chelate extractants has some advantages including simplicity in controlling extraction selectivity by selecting suitable aqueous phase pH values and simple back-extraction recovery of the extracted metals using acid solutions. In this review, various fundamental and applied research on metal extraction usin...

Atomic force microscopy reveals that Pseudomonas aeruginosa LecA (PA-IL) and a tetra-galactosylated 1,3-alternate calix[4]arene-based glycocluster self-assemble according to an aggregative chelate binding mode to create monodimensional filaments. Lectin oligomers are identified along the filaments and defects in chelate binding generate branches and bifurcations. A molecular model with alternat...

Through doping of the [Ir(C^N1)(C^N2)(N^O)]-tris-heteroleptic Ir(iii)-complex [Ir(iqbt)(ppy)(pic)] (1) or [Ir(iqbt)(ppy)(Br-pic)] (2) into EML, preferentially horizontal orientation is beneficial for their high-performance NIR-PLEDs.

Tridentate chelate ligands of 2,6-bis[hydroxy(methyl)amino]-1,3,5-triazine family rapidly release iron from human recombinant ferritin in the presence of oxygen. The reaction is inhibited by superoxide dismutase, catalase, mannitol and urea. Suggested reaction mechanism involves reduction of the ferritin iron core by superoxide anion, diffusion of iron(II) cations outside the ferritin shell, an...

The movement proteins of two tobamoviruses (tobacco mosaic virus, TMV, common strain U1 and cruciferous TMV strain) containing amino-terminal hexahistidine affinity tags were overexpressed in Escherichia coli and purified by metal chelate affinity chromatography. Purified recombinant proteins were immobilized to a Ni(2+)-chelate adsorbent and their ability to interact with full-length genomic T...
