After La2Mo2O9 (LMO), Cu-substituted LMO (LCuMO), and CuMoO4 (CuMO) powders were prepared by complex polymerization method or oxide mixing method, their antiviral antifungal activities evaluated. The obtained samples having a crystal structure of either with specific surface area 3.0–6.0 m2/g. These exhibited almost equal activity against bacteriophage Qβ, whereas CuMO was found to have the hig...

The pyridone fragment in the ligand [2, 2’-bipyridin]-6(1H)-one (bipy-6-OH) enables oxidative Heck reaction of simple arenes with oxygen as sole oxidant and no redox mediator. Arenes either electron-donating or electron-withdrawing groups can be functionalized this way. Experimental data on toluene model arene shows that C−H activation step is turnover limiting structure crucial to facilitate r...

A series of molybdate, MoO4(2-), salts have been studied using solid-state 95Mo NMR spectroscopy at applied magnetic field strengths of 11.75, 17.63 and 21.14 T. In contrast to previous investigations, the principal components of the Mo shielding and EFG tensors have been obtained, as well as their relative orientations. At the fields employed, the anisotropic Mo shielding and quadrupolar inter...

Structure-activity relationship has been one of the main topics of research on catalysts all the time. Component and structure are the two moieties governing the performance of solid materials as catalysts. Multicomponent bismuth molybdates are well known catalysts for propene oxidation but pure crystalline phases of bismuth molybdate are inactive for the reaction. We have designed mesostructur...

This paper summarizes our work performed with glucocorticoid-binding complexes in molybdate-stabilized cytosol prepared from 32P-labeled L-cells. In our early work, we showed that cytosol prepared from 32P-labeled L-cells contains two phosphoproteins (a 90 and a 98-100 kdalton protein) that elute from an affinity resin of deoxycorticosterone agarose in a manner consistent with the predicted beh...
