The catalytic activity and high selectivity reported by bimetallic heteroscorpionate acetate zinc complexes in ring-opening copolymerization (ROCOP) reactions involving CO2 as substrate encouraged us to expand their use as catalysts for ROCOP of cyclohexene oxide (CHO) and cyclic anhydrides. Among the catalysts tested for the ROCOP of CHO and phthalic anhydride at different reaction conditions, the most active catalytic system was the combination of complex 3 with bis(triphenylphosphine)iminium as cocatalyst in toluene at 80 °C. Once the optimal catalytic system was determined, the scope in terms of other cyclic anhydrides was broadened. The catalytic system was capable of copolymerizing selectively and efficiently CHO with phthalic, maleic, succinic and naphthalic anhydrides to afford the corresponding polyester materials. The polyesters obtained were characterized by spectroscopic, spectrometric, and calorimetric techniques. Finally, the reaction mechanism of the catalytic system was proposed based on stoichiometric reactions.

Abstract We pursue the idea, implicit in much current phonological research, that understanding the multiple factors that shape speech production and perception is within the purview of phonology. In particular, increased access to naturalistic data has highlighted the multidimensional reality of variation in spoken language. At the same time, longstanding methods of doing phonology – including impressionistic analysis, and laboratory and experimental studies – remain crucial to understanding native speaker competence and grammar. We advocate for an expanded methodological toolbox in phonological analysis, using an iterative approach that crucially includes naturalistic corpus data. Integrating across multiple data sources offers fuller insight into the nature of the phonological system and native speaker-hearer ability. Several case studies highlight findings gained through linked, iterative studies, showing the importance of naturalistic data for a richer understanding of phonological phenomena, and leading us to reflect on desiderata for corpora to reveal speaker-specific patterns in fine phonetic detail and variability, which we argue are part of a speaker-hearer’s phonological competence. Phonological analysis that embraces the full spectrum of variation in spoken language data (from categorical to gradient, and systematic to sporadic) contributes to a deeper understanding of phonology in this richer sense.

Crystal structures of human mitochondrial 3-ketoacyl-CoA thiolase (hT1) in the apo form and in complex with CoA have been determined at 2.0 Å resolution. The structures confirm the tetrameric quaternary structure of this degradative thiolase. The active site is surprisingly similar to the active site of theZoogloea ramigerabiosynthetic tetrameric thiolase (PDB entries 1dm3 and 1m1o) and different from the active site of the peroxisomal dimeric degradative thiolase (PDB entries 1afw and 2iik). A cavity analysis suggests a mode of binding for the fatty-acyl tail in a tunnel lined by the Nβ2–Nα2 loop of the adjacent subunit and the Lα1 helix of the loop domain. Soaking of the apo hT1 crystals with octanoyl-CoA resulted in a crystal structure in complex with CoA owing to the intrinsic acyl-CoA thioesterase activity of hT1. Solution studies confirm that hT1 has low acyl-CoA thioesterase activity for fatty acyl-CoA substrates. The fastest rate is observed for the hydrolysis of butyryl-CoA. It is also shown that T1 has significant biosynthetic thiolase activity, which is predicted to be of physiological importance.

Gold, Au nanoparticles were deposited on ZnO, Al2O3, and Ga2O3 via colloidal method in order to investigate the role of support for CO2 hydrogenation to methanol. Au/ZnO was also produced using impregnation method to investigate the effect of colloidal method to improve methanol selectivity. Au/ZnO produced via sol immobilization showed high selectivity towards methanol meanwhile impregnation method produced Au/ZnO catalyst with high selectivity towards CO. The CO2 conversion was also influenced by the amount of Au weight loading. Au nanoparticles with average diameter of 3.5 nm exhibited 4% of CO2 conversion with 72% of methanol selectivity at 250 °C and 20 bar. The formation of AuZn alloy was identified as active sites for selective CO2 hydrogenation to methanol. Segregation of Zn from ZnO to form AuZn alloy increased the number of surface oxygen vacancy for CO2 adsorption to form formate intermediates. The formate was stabilized on AuZn alloy for further hydrogenation to form methanol.  The use of Al2O3 and Ga2O3 inhibited the formation of Au alloy, and therefore reduced methanol production. Au/Al2O3 showed 77% selectivity to methane, meanwhile Au/Ga2O3 produced 100% selectivity towards CO. Copyright © 2021 by Authors, Published by BCREC Group.
