Gold nanorods (GNRs) were encapsulated and dispersed into organic solvents by tetrabenzylthiol resorcinarene (TBTR) and by a poly(dithiocarbamate) derived from tetra- N-methyl(aminomethyl)resorcinarene (TMAR-DTC), formed by the in situ condensation of TMAR with carbon disulfide. The latter proved to be highly effective at enabling the redispersion of GNRs in various organic solvents. GNRs encap...

An improved procedure to accomplish the O-phosphorylation of 4-hydroxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine (psilocin 5) is reported that utilizes reaction between the O-lithium salt of 5 and tetra-Obenzylpyrophosphate. The O-benzyl groups were removed by catalytic hydrogenation over palladium on carbon to afford N,N-dimethyl-4-phosphoryloxytryptamine (psilocybin, 1). In view of difficulties encountered in t...

lasses of lipoproteins were determined during the course of these injections. A marked increase in concentration of these three classes of lipoproteins occurred during the administration of carl)on tetra(hloride. After the cessation of this drug, the lipoproteins of largest Sf rate returned to normal first with those of lower Sf rate returning to normal levels in the order of decreasing Sf rate...

A computer code has been developed that uses an implicit nitedi erence technique to solve nonsimilar, axisymmetric boundary layer equations for both laminar and turbulent ow. The code can treat ideal gases, air in chemical equilibrium, and carbon tetra uoride (CF4), which is a useful test gas for hypersonic blunt-body simulations. This is the only known boundary layer code that can treat CF4. C...

Bimolecular reactions of the antimony(V) porphyrin complexes SbO(tpp)OH, 1 and SbO(oep)OH, 2 with tetra-n-butylammonium hydroxide were investigated at 298 K in acetonitrile solution (tpp, dianion of 5,10,15,20-tetraphenylporphyrin and oep, dianion of 2,3,7,8,12,13,17,18-octaethylporphyrin). Spontaneous nucleophilic addition of hydroxide ions to the non-oxidized porphyrin macrocycle leads to nov...

The title compound, [Pt(C(15)H(18)NO(2)S)Cl], was obtained by the cyclo-metallation reaction of cis-bis-(benzonitrile)dichlorido-platinum(II) with N-benzyl-idene-l-methio-nine allyl ester in refluxing toluene. The Pt(II) atom has a square-planar geometry and is tetra-coordinated by the Cl atom and the C, N and S atoms from the benzyl-idene methio-nine ester ligand. In the crystal structure, the...

The iron(III) complex of 2,7,12,17-tetraethyl-3,6,11,18-tetra-methylcorrphycene, an isomeric heme, was complexed with apomyoglobin to examine the ligand binding ability of the novel macrocycle under physiological conditions. The reconstituted holoprotein was found to be functionally active at pH 7.4 and 20 degrees C and to bind oxygen and carbon monoxide reversibly with a half-saturation pressu...

Many quinolones, substituted quinolines and thiones are well known for their biological activity. The redox characteristics of such biological substances may provide valuable information about the redox behaviour in living systems. The present paper is aimed at carrying out a methodical cyclic voltammetric investigation of the peak potential values of 4-methyl/phenyl -3vinyl quinoline-2(1H) one...

In the title compound, C(2)H(10)N(2) (2+)·2C(9)H(3)Br(4)O(4) (-)·CH(4)O, the N atoms of the ethane-1,2-diamine mol-ecule are protonated. The crystal structure is stabilized by N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds between the ethane-1,2-diaminium cations and 3,4,5,6-tetra-bromo-2-(methoxy-carbon-yl)bromo-benzoate anions, and by O-H⋯O and N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds between the methanol solvate and both the cation and ...
