The kinetics of the reactions of hydrogen peroxide and cyanide with native horseradish peroxidase, as well as reactions of compounds I and II with ferrocyanide have been studied in ordinary water and in deuterium oxide at 25 °C and ionic strength 0.11 using a stopped-flow apparatus. Rate constants for all reactions were measured over a wide range of acidity in both solvents from which equilibrium and kinetic isotope effects were evaluated. Protonation of an ionizable group on the enzyme with a pKa value of 4.15 ± 0.05 in water inhibits the reactions with both hydrogen peroxide and cyanide. A significant kinetic isotope effect, kH/kD = 1.6 ± 0.1, was measured for compound I formation whereas no significant kinetic isotope effect was found for cyanide binding. On the basis of these findings, a partial mechanism for compound I formation is proposed in which the group of pKa 4.15 plays a crucial role. The pH dependencies of the ferrocyanide reaction in the pH interval 4.5–10.8 confirmed the role of an acid group with a pKa of 5.2 for compound I and for compound II a pKa of 8.6 and another with a value lower than that encompassed by the pH range of the study. Equilibrium isotope effects were found but no kinetic isotope effects for either the reaction of compound I or of compound II This suggests that there are no rate-limiting proton transfers in the reactions between ferrocyanide and compounds I and II of horseradish peroxidase. The only reducing substrates which exhibit positive kH/kD values possess a labile proton.

Titration of guaiacol by hydrogen peroxide in the presence of a catalytic amount of horseradish peroxidase shows that the reduction of hydrogen peroxide proceeds by the abstraction of two electrons from a guaiacol molecule. In the same way, it can be demonstrated that 0.5 mol of guaiacol can reduce, at low temperature, 1 mol of peroxidase compound I to compound II. Moreover, the reaction between equal amounts of compound I and guaiacol at low temperature produces the native enzyme. A reaction scheme is proposed which postulates that two electrons are transferred from guaiacol to compound I giving ferriperoxidase and oxidized guaiacol with the intermediary formation of compound II. The direct two-electron transfer from guaiacol to compound I without a dismutation of product free radicals must be considered as an exception to the general mechanism involving a single-electron transfer.

AbstractThe catalytic cycle of horseradish peroxidase (HRP; donor:hydrogen peroxide oxidoreductase; EC 1.11.1.7) is initiated by a rapid oxidation of it by hydrogen peroxide to give an enzyme intermediate, compound I, which reverts to the resting state via two successive single electron transfer reactions from reducing substrate molecules, the first yielding a second enzyme intermediate, compound II. To investigate the mechanism of action of horseradish peroxidase on catechol substrates we have studied the oxidation of both 4-

Herein, we report the syntheses of two lithium-vanadium oxide-fluoride compounds crystallized from the same reaction mixture through a time variation experiment. A low temperature hydrothermal route employing a viscous paste of V2O5, oxalic acid, LiF, and HF allowed the crystallization of one metastable phase initially, Li2VO0.55(H2O)0.45F5⋅2H2O (I), which on prolonged heating transforms to a chemically similar yet structurally different phase, Li3VOF5 (II). Compound I crystallizes in centrosymmetric space group, I2/a with a = 6.052(3), b = 7.928(4), c = 12.461(6) Å, and β = 103.99(2)°, while compound II crystallizes in a non-centrosymmetric (NCS) space group, Pna21 with a = 5.1173(2), b = 8.612(3), c = 9.346(3) Å. Synthesis of NCS crystals are highly sought after in solid-state chemistry for their second-harmonic-generation (SHG) response and compound II exhibits SHG activity albeit non-phase-matchable. In this article, we also describe their magnetic properties which helped in unambiguous assignment of mixed valency of V (+4/+5) for Li2VO0.55(H2O)0.45F5⋅2H2O (I) and +4 valency of V for Li3VOF5 (II).

The asymmetric unit of compound (I) is composed of two independent cation–anion units of {[Cu(Lpn)2][Fe(CN)5)(NO)]} and two water molecules. The FeIIIatoms have distorted octahedral geometries, while the CuIIatoms can be considered to be pentacoordinate. In the crystal, however, the units align to form zigzag cyanide-bridged chains propagating along [101]. Hence, the CuIIatoms have distorted octahedral coordination spheres with extremely long semicoordination Cu—N(cyanido) bridging bonds. The chains are linked by O—H...N and N—H...N hydrogen bonds, forming two-dimensional networks parallel to (010), and the networks are linkedviaN—H...O and N—H...N hydrogen bonds, forming a three-dimensional framework. Compound (II) is a two-dimensional cyanide-bridged coordination polymer. The asymmetric unit is composed of two chiral {[Cu(Lpn)2][Cr(CN)6]}−anions bridged by a chiral [Cu(Lpn)2]2+cation and five water molecules of crystallization. Both the CrIIIatoms and the central CuIIatom have distorted octahedral geometries. The coordination spheres of the outer CuIIatoms of the asymmetric unit can be considered to be pentacoordinate. In the crystal, these units are bridged by long semicoordination Cu—N(cyanide) bridging bonds forming a two-dimensional network, hence these CuIIatoms now have distorted octahedral geometries. The networks, which lie parallel to (10-1), are linkedviaO—H...O, O—H...N, N—H...O and N—H...N hydrogen bonds involving all five non-coordinating water molecules, the cyanide N atoms and the NH2groups of the Lpn ligands, forming a three-dimensional framework.

Zolmitriptan hydrogen oxalate [(S)-dimethyl(2-{5-[(2-oxo-1,3-oxazolidin-4-yl)methyl]-1H-indol-3-yl}ethyl)azanium hydrogen oxalate], C16H22N3O2+·C2HO4−, (I), and zolmitriptan camphorsulfonate [(S)-dimethyl(2-{5-[(2-oxo-1,3-oxazolidin-4-yl)methyl]-1H-indol-3-yl}ethyl)azanium (S,R)-{2-hydroxy-7,7-dimethylbicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-1-yl}methanesulfonate], C16H22N3O2+·C10H15O4S−, (II), are the first reported salt complexes of the antimigraine drug zolmitriptan. Compound (I) crystallizes in the space groupP21with two molecules of protonated zolmitriptan and two oxalate monoanions in the asymmetric unit, while compound (II) crystallizes in the space groupP212121with one protonated zolmitriptan molecule and one camphorsulfonate anion in the asymmetric unit. The orientations of the ethylamine side chain and the oxazolidinone ring with respect to the indole ring of the zolmitriptan cation are different for (I) and (II). In (I), they are oriented in opposite directions and the molecule adopts a step-like appearance, while in (II) the corresponding side chains are folded in the same direction, giving the molecule a cup-like appearance. The zolmitriptan molecules of (I) form anR22(8) dimer, while in (II) they form a helical chain with aC(11) motif. The oxalate monoanions of (I) interact with the zolmitriptan cations and extend the dimer into a three-dimensional hydrogen-bonded network. In (II), the camphorsulfonate anion forms anR22(15) ring motif with the zolmitriptan cation.

Each CuIIion adopts a five-coordinate square-pyramidal coordination sphere where the basal N2O2plane is formed by two O atoms of the oxalate ligand and two N atoms of a bidentate chelating histamine molecule. The apical coordination site in compound (I) is occupied by a monodentate azide anion through one of its terminal N atoms. The apical coordination site in compound (II) is occupied by a monodentate dicyanamide anion through one of its terminal N atoms. The molecules in both structures are centrosymmetric. In the crystals of compounds (I) and (II), the dinuclear complexes are linked through N—H...Xand C—H...X(X= N, O) hydrogen bonds where the donors are provided by the histamine ligand and the acceptor atoms are provided by the azide, dicyanamide, and oxalate ligands. In compound (I), the coordinatively unsaturated copper ions interact with the histamine ligandviaa C—H...Cu interaction. The coordinatively unsaturated copper ions in compound (II) interactviaa weak N...Cu interaction with the dicyanamide ligand of a neighboring molecule. The side chain of the histamine ligand is disordered over three sets of sites in (II).

Based on the bioassay-guided strategy, we isolated 6-six allelochemicals [cichoric acid (I), 1,3-dicaffeoylquinic acid (II), 4,5-dicaffeoylquinic acid (III), chlorogenic acid (IV), 1-hydroxy-2-phthoic acid (V), echinacoside (VI)] from the roots of Echinacea purpurea (L.) Moench. Their structures were identified by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) spectroscopic data. The bioassays studies included allelopathic and algicidal activities to test the effects of extracts and isolated fractions against the test weeds (Amaranthus viridis L., Portulaca oleracea L. and Microcystis aeruginosa Kutzing). At 100 µg/mL, compound (II) inhibited the shoot length and germination of A. viridis and P. oleracea weeds with the germination RI of -0.95±0.04 and -0.95±0.02, respectively. Furthermore, compound (III) showed the strongest inhibition of root length of P. oleracea L. We also found that compounds I-VI have algicidal activity. The compound (I) at low inoculum (5.0×102 cells mL-1) and high inoculum (1.0×104 cells mL-1), showed the highest algicidal activity of 78 % and 87.67 % 6 h after the treatment at 5 µg mL-1 respectively.

Transformation of N-(1,1-dimethylpropynyl)-3,5-dichlorobenzamide (compound I) in soil occurs readily and two products are produced, initial cyclization giving 2-(3,5-dichlorophenyl)-4,4-dimethyl-5-methyleneoxazoline (compound II) followed by subsequent hydrolysis to N-(1,1-dimethylacetonyl)-3,5-dichlorobenzamide (compound III). These transformations can be brought aboutin vitro, the first step by means of acid or base, and the second by extended treatment with acid. The rate of cyclization and hydrolysis of compound I varies directly with soil temperature, being rapid at high temperature (37 C) and very slow at low temperature (5 C). The rate of chemical change of compound I in soil is influenced to a much greater degree by temperature than by soil moisture content. The effect of soil type on transformation of compound I was studied and compounds II and III were present in five of the six soils examined. The herbicidal activity of compounds II and III was negligible in comparison to compound I.

1. N-(5′-Phosphopyridoxyl)-l-glutamic acid (P-Pxy-Glu, compound I) is readily converted at pH3 into a substance (P-Pxy-Glp, compound II) characterized as N-(5′-phosphopyridoxyl)-2-oxopyrrolidine-5-carboxylic acid. 2. The u.v., i.r. and fluorescence spectra of P-Pxy-Glu and P-Pxy-Glp have been determined; from the u.v. spectra their pK values have been found and compared. 3. The apoenzyme of aspartate aminotransferase is rapidly and irreversibly inactivated by P-Pxy-Glu, but is inactivated more slowly by P-Pxy-Glp. The complex with P-Pxy-Glp is stable enough to be isolated, but it is slowly reactivated in the presence of excess of pyridoxal phosphate. 4. The u.v. spectrum of the complex of apoenzyme and P-Pxy-Glp suggests that it contains a hydrogen bond between the phenolic hydroxyl group and the pyrrolidone nitrogen; this specifies the conformation of most of the molecule of P-Pxy-Glp. This conformation is similar to that previously postulated for the enzyme–glutamate complex except for the side chain of glutamate. Hence both the affinity of P-Pxy-Glp for the apoenzyme and the fact that it is more easily removed than P-Pxy-Glu are explicable.
