1. The initial rapid phase of ATP hydrolysis by bovine heart submitochondrial particles or by soluble F1-ATPase is insensitive to anion activation (sulphite) or inhibition (azide). 2. The second slow phase of ATP hydrolysis is hyperbolically inhibited by azide (Ki approximately 10(-5) M); the inosine triphosphatase activity of submitochondrial particles or F1-ATPase is insensitive to azide or s...

Azide ion is an excellent vibrational probe for studying ion-ion and ion-dipole interactions in solutions because its frequency is sensitively dependent on its local environments. When azide ion forms contact ion pairs with cations in dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO), free azide ion and contact ion pairs are spectrally well distinguished in FTIR spectra. Here, we investigated vibrational population rel...

The pH- and chemically-driven unidirectional transport of a macrocycle through [2]rotaxane based on the vinyl sulfonyl groups is reported.

An improved synthetic method affording 4-chlorocoumarin-3-sulfonyl chloride (4) in very good yield (ca. 85%) is reported. This compound was reacted with various bidentate nucleophiles such as 2-aminopyridines and 2-aminothiazoles in order to obtain substituted pyrido- and thiazino-1,2,4-thiadiazino-benzopyranone dioxides (potential anticancer and anti-HIV agents). These reactions occurred rapid...

Strain-promoted alkyne-azide cycloaddition (SPAAC) has become an indispensable tool in bioorthogonal conjugation and surface immobilization. While numerous studies have focused on enhancing the reactivity of cyclooctynes, a facile method to evaluate binding efficiency for cyclooctyne-azide-based immobilization without any sophisticated facilities is still missing. In present work, different der...

A convenient method for determination of sodium azide in beverages using ion chromatography is described. This method combines the specificity for azide with a simple sample preparation using a bubble and trap apparatus that removes any interferences. Sodium azide in a sample was acidified, and the azide was converted to the volatile hydrazoic acid, which was trapped in 2.5 mM sodium hydroxide ...

In the title compound, C(15)H(15)NO(3)S, the conformation of the N-H bond in the C-SO(2)-NH-C(O) segment is anti to the C=O bond. The dihedral angle between the sulfonyl benzene ring and the -SO(2)-NH-C-O segment is 84.9 (1)° and that between the sulfonyl and the benzoyl benzene rings is 89.0 (1)°. In the crystal, inversion dimers linked by pairs of N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds occur.

In the title compound, C(14)H(12)ClNO(3)S, the conformation of the N-H bond in the C-SO(2)-NH-C(O) segment is anti to the C=O bond. The dihedral angle between the sulfonyl benzene ring and the -SO(2)-NH-C-O segment is 89.4 (1)° and that between the sulfonyl and benzoyl benzene rings is 89.1 (2)°. The crystal structure features inversion-related dimers linked by pairs of N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds.

New cis monocyclic beta-lactams were synthesized by [2+2] Staudinger cycloaddition reactions of the imine (3,4-dimethoxybenzylidene)-(4-methoxyphenyl)-amine and ketenes derived from different acyl chlorides and Et3N. These monocyclic beta-lactams were then cleaved by ceric ammonium nitrate (CAN) to give NH-monocyclic beta-lactams, which in turn were converted to N-sulfonyl monocyclic beta-lacta...
