Insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I or somatomedin C) is a serum polypeptide with three intramolecular disulfide bonds. In the course of synthesis by the recombinant DNA method, three disulfide bond isomers, all of which have Cys18-Cys61 with three combinations of two disulfide bonds formed by Cys6, Cys47, Cys48 and Cys52, were identified. Natural type, isomer II, was proved to have a Cys6-Cys4...

High bromine containing dimers of tetrabromoanthra- p -quinodimethane as appealing building-blocks for organic synthesis. Thorough study their isomerism and optoelectronic properties.

Reactions of Mo(2)(O(2)CCH(3))(DAniF)(3), DAniF = N,N'-di-p-anisylformamidinate, with oxamidate dianions [ArNC(O)C(O)NAr](2-), Ar = C(6)H(5) and p-anisyl, give pairs of isomeric compounds where the [Mo(2)] units are bridged by the oxamidate anions. For the alpha isomers, the C-C unit of the dianion is nearly perpendicular to the Mo-Mo bonds, and these are essentially perpendicular to each other...

Comparative analyses utilizing collision induced dissociation (CID) and vacuum ultraviolet photodissociation (VUVPD) for seven isobaric disaccharides have been performed in order to differentiate the linkage type and anomeric configuration of the isomers. Although an individual CID spectrum of a disaccharide ion provides information related to its structure, CID does not sufficiently differenti...

The kinetics of ultrafast photoinduced structural changes in linkage isomers is investigated using Na2[Fe(CN)5NO] as a model complex. The buildup of the metastable side-on configuration of the NO ligand, as well as the electronic energy levels of ground, excited, and metastable states, has been revealed by means of time-resolved extreme UV (XUV) photoelectron spectroscopy in aqueous solution, a...

Methanol drives the blue emissive complex, [Cu(2)(dppy)(3)(MeCN)](BF(4))(2) (dppy = diphenylphosphino-pyridine), with a head-to-tail arrangement of the three bridging phosphine ligands to convert to its linkage isomer (head-to-head, green emissive) in the solid state, and the transformation could be reversibly realized through recrystallization in different solvents.

We report the case of a 37-year-old man who suffered from biventricular failure due to left isomerism, inferior vena cava interruption with azygos vein continuation, bilateral superior vena cava, double outlet of right ventricle, complete atrioventricular septal defect, pulmonary stenosis, and isolated dextrocardia. Heart transplantation in patients with systemic venous anomalies often requires...

Revealing structural isomerism in nanoparticles using single-crystal X-ray crystallography remains a largely unresolved task, although it has been theoretically predicted with some experimental clues. Here we report a pair of structural isomers, Au38T and Au38Q, as evidenced using electrospray ionization mass spectrometry, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis and indispu...

Status Last revised 1993 Previous titles/other references Clinical Investigation of Chiral Active Substances/ III/3501/91 Additional Notes This note for guidance considers active substances with one or more stereogenic centres which display chirality but not constitutional isomerism or cis/trans isomerism. It should be read in conjunction with Directive 65/65/EEC as amended and Directive 75/318...
