Ethidium bromide intercalates between the bases of native DNA, resulting in several biological anomalies. The effects of ethidium bromide on the mitochondria of cultured mouse L cells were studied. At a concentration of 1 microg ethidium bromide/ml it was observed that concentrations of cytochromes a + a(3) and b decreased, a + a(3) more rapidly than b. In contrast, the concentration of cytochr...

Binding of ethidium bromide to Escherichia coli tRNAVal and an RNA minihelix based on the acceptor stem and T-arm of tRNAVal was investigated by 19F and 1H NMR spectroscopy of RNAs labeled with fluorine by incorporation of 5-fluorouracil. Ethidium bromide selectively intercalates into the acceptor stem of the tRNAVal. More than one ethidium bromide binding site is found in the acceptor stem, th...

The paper discusses spectral sensitized photo processes in silver bromide caused by dyes adsorbed on the surface of stearate via lightguide mechanism and a direct hit luminescent light from dye molecules localized near microcrystal to bromide. submits an estimation contribution overall sensitization. These calculations demonstrate that particle sensitization stearate—silver structure is compara...

In the crystal structure of the title molecular salt, C(6)H(14)N(+)·Br(-), N-H⋯Br hydrogen bonds link the cations and anions to form a one-dimensional network.

The asymmetric unit of the title salt, C(7)H(10)N(+)·Br(-), comprises two 2,6-dimethyl-pyridinium cations and two bromide anions. One cation and one anion are situated in general positions, while the other cation and the other anion lie on a crystallographic mirror plane parallel to (010). Each pair of ions inter-act via N-H⋯Br and C-H⋯Br hydrogen bonding, generating motifs depending on the cat...

In the title compound, C(6)H(5)N(2) (+)·Br(-), the pyridine N atom is protonated and involved in an inter-molecular N-H⋯Br hydrogen bond which, together with weak C-H⋯N hydrogen bonds, results in the formation of a chain along the c axis. Weak inter-molecular C-H⋯Br inter-actions between pyridine H atoms and Br(-) anions connect these chains into a network parallel to the bc plane.

In the title compound, C(9)H(14)N(+)·Br(-), an intra-molecular N-H⋯Br inter-action links the anion to the cation. In the crystal structure, inter-molecular N-H⋯Br inter-actions link the mol-ecules into a three-dimensional network.

Reported is the synthesis of Ge(9-x)Sn(x) heteroatomic deltahedral Zintl ions and their alkenylation by reactions with alkynes. The nine-atom clusters are made either by extraction from mixed Ge/Sn precursors with nominal composition K(4)Ge(9-x)Sn(x) or by dissolution of mixtures of the corresponding binary precursors K(4)Ge(9) and K(4)Sn(9) in solvents with high dielectric constants such as DM...
