copper amine oxidases (caos) catalyse the oxidative de-amination of biogenic amines which are ubiquitous compounds essential for cell growth and proliferation. the enzymes are homodimers containing both topaquinone and a cu(ii) ions as cofactors at the active site of each subunit. after extraction and purification of chickpea (cicer arietinum) amine oxidase by chromatoghraphy, km and vmax of th...

copper amine oxidases are important enzymes, which contribute to the regulation of mono- and polyamine levels. each monomer contains one cu(ii) ion and 2,4,5-trihydroxyphenylalanine (tpq) as cofactors. they catalyze the oxidative deamination of primary amines to aldehydes with a ping-pong mechanism consisting of a transamination. the mechanism is followed by the transfer of two electrons to mol...

Oxide-supported amine materials are widely known to be effective CO2 sorbents under simulated flue-gas and direct-air-capture conditions. Most work has focused on amine species loaded onto porous silica supports, though potential stability advantages may be offered through the use of porous alumina supports. Unlike silica materials, which are comparably inert, porous alumina materials can be tu...

Amine Prodrugs are being used since the beginning of the 19th century in medicines. Their Chemistry, Biological activity and Pharmacodynamic Characters has been revealed better in the 20th century. Most of the drugs that are invented in the recent century are prodrugs of amines, which show their importance in medical field. The purpose of this review is to focus on various aspects of amine prod...

Enolase and ATPase are sensitive to fluoride. It is unclear whether this sensitivity differs for F-sensitive and F-resistant cells or for different types of fluoride. Permeabilized cells of the fluoride-sensitive strain Streptococcus mutans C180-2 and its fluoride-resistant mutant strain C180-2 FR were preincubated at pH 7 or 4 with NaF, the amine fluorides Olaflur and Dectaflur and amine chlor...

Amine radical cations are highly useful reactive intermediates in amine synthesis. They have displayed several modes of reactivity leading to some highly sought-after synthetic intermediates including iminium ions, α-amino radicals, and distonic ions. One appealing method to access amine radical cations is through one-electron oxidation of the corresponding amines under visible light photoredox...

The causes and the prevention of carbon steel corrosion in amine systems are reviewed. The corrosive agents are acid gases, oxygen, heat stable salts, amine degradation products, and, in refineries, gas contaminants such as ammonia and hydrogen cyanide. Corrosion mechanisms are provided for carbon steel exposed to amine solutions and for amine regenerator overhead systems containing aqueous con...

In the title compound, C(8)H(8)N(4)·C(8)H(8)N(4), two tautomers, viz. 3-phenyl-1,2,4-triazol-5-amine and 5-phenyl-1,2,4-triazol-3-amine, are crystallized together in equal amounts. The 3-phenyl-1,2,4-triazol-5-amine mol-ecule is essentially planar; the phenyl ring makes a dihedral angle of 2.3 (2)° with the mean plane of the 1,2,4-triazole ring. In the 5-phenyl-1,2,4-triazol-3-amine tautomer, t...

A computational and experimental study is presented, which provides the first evidence that amine has an opportunity to engage in bonding with pentathiepin to promote its decomposition. The study provides mechanistic insight into the process that gives rise to pentathiepin biological activity. Primary or secondary amine will allow for an intramolecular addition to the pentathiepin ring at the n...
