An one-pot method has been developed for the synthesis of azo dyes via sequential diazotization–diazo coupling of aromatic amines with coupling agents at room temperature in the presence of Bi(NO3)3. 5H2O. Short reaction times, high yields, a clean process, simple methodology, easy work-up and green ‎conditions are advantages of this protocol.‎

This work aims to experimentally determine the polarizability of confined electron in CdSe quantum dots (QD). The dielectric response of uncharged and charged CdSe quantum dots (3.2 and 6.3 nm) has been measured using terahertz time-domain spectroscopy in the frequency range of 2.0-7.0 THz. A strong coupling between the surface plasmon and surface phonons appears upon charging the QDs. The abso...

The synthesis of propargylamines via A3 coupling mostly under metal-catalyzed procedures is well known. This work invented an unprecedented effect of salicylaldehyde, one of the A3 coupling partners, which could lead to the formation of propargylamine, an important pharmaceutical building block, in the absence of any metal catalyst and under mild conditions. The role of the hydroxy group in ort...

Anthraquinones are of significant interest due to their biological activity, coloring properties, and synthetic applications. Here, we describe a mild convenient method for modification 1-ethynyl-4-hydroxyanthraquinone that was obtained from the Sonogashira cross-coupling reaction 1-hydroxy-4-iodoanthraquinone with alkynes. The copper(I) catalyzed one-pot three-component (A3-coupling) new secon...

In this paper is reported the synthesis of N,N? hydroxy derivative NHC silver (3a–4a) and gold(I) (3b–4b) complexes general formula [M(NHC)2]+ [MX2]?. All compounds were characterized by spectroscopic analytic techniques. The turned out to be effective in both catalytic biological applications. They catalyzed coupling aldehyde, piperidine, phenylacetylene A3-reaction produce propargylamines sho...

In cytochrome c oxidase, a requirement for proton pumping is a tight coupling between electron and proton transfer, which could be accomplished if internal electron-transfer rates were controlled by uptake of protons. During reaction of the fully reduced enzyme with oxygen, concomitant with the "peroxy" to "oxoferryl" transition, internal transfer of the fourth electron from CuA to heme a has t...

We have examined the redox behavior of the cytochrome c1aa3 complex from Thermus thermophilus. In potentiometric titrations the cytochrome c behaves as an independent center having n = 1 and E = 205 mV (NHE). Under the assumption that the individual centers equilibrate independently in this experiment, changes in the absorption band at 603 nm have been resolved into two components: cytochrome a...

The monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) 323/A3 and 17-1A both recognize a 40-kDa carcinoma-associated epithelial glycoprotein (EGP40). MAb 17-1A has been used in many therapeutic trials as an immunotherapeutic agent to combat advanced colorectal cancer, and about 5-10% overall responses have been observed. It has been shown that MAb 323/A3 has a higher affinity than 17-1A, which might be an advantageo...
