The title compound, poly[[diaqua-1κ2O-tetrakis(μ3-pyridine-2,3-dicarboxylato)-2:1:2′κ10N,O2:O2′,O3:O3′;2:1:2′κ8O3:O3′:N,O2-diiron(III)strontium(II)] dihydrate], {[Fe2Sr(C7H3O4)4(H2O)2]·2H2O}n, which has triclinic (P\overline{1}) symmetry, was prepared by the reaction of pyridine-2,3-dicarboxylic acid, SrCl2·6H2O and Fe(OAc)2(OH) (OAc is acetate) in the presence of imidazole in water at 363 K. In the crystal structure, the pyridine-2,3-dicarboxylate (pydc2−) ligand exhibits μ3-η1,η1:η1:η1and μ3-η1,η1:η1,η1:η1coordination modes, bridging two FeIIIcations and one SrIIcation. The SrIIcation, which is located on an inversion centre, is eight-coordinated by six O atoms of four pydc2−ligands and two water molecules. The coordination geometry of the SrIIcation can be best described as distorted dodecahedral. The FeIIIcation is six-coordinated by O and N atoms of four pydc2−ligands in a slightly distorted octahedral geometry. Each FeIIIcation bridges two neighbouring FeIIIcations to form a one-dimensional [Fe2(pydc)4]nchain. The chains are connected by SrIIcations to form a three-dimensional framework. The topology type of this framework istfj. The structure displays O—H...O and C—H...O hydrogen bonding.

The title compounds, [Cu(C5H7O2)2(C5H6N2)], (I), and [Cu(C5H7O2)2(C4H5N3)], (II), were prepared by the reaction of bis(pentane-2,4-dionato-κ2O,O′)copper(II) with pyridin-2-amine and pyrimidin-2-amine, respectively. From a chemical point of view, it is interesting that no Schiff base formation was observed. The compounds are isostructural, with both having a square-pyramidal coordination of the CuIIatom and intramolecular N—H...O hydrogen bonding. The additional N atom of the pyrimidin-2-amine ligand is not involved in hydrogen bonding or in metal coordination. In the crystal structure, chelate rings are involved in π–π interactions and molecules of (I) are linked togetherviaN—H...O hydrogen bonds.

In the title compound, [ZnCl2(C12H10N2)] n , the ZnII ion displays a tetrahedral coordination geometry. Each 1,2-di-4-pyridylethylene ligand is located on an inversion center and bridges ZnII ions, forming a zigzag polymeric chain. Weak C—H...Cl hydrogen bonding is observed in the crystal structure.

In the crystal structure of the title compound, [Ni(C5H5N2O2S)2(H2O)], the NiIIcation is located on a twofold rotation axis and chelated by two 2-amino-1,3-thiazole-4-acetate (ata) anions in the basal coordination plane; a water molecule located on the same twofold rotation axis completes the distorted square-pyramidal coordination geometry. Intermolecular O—H...O and N—H...O hydrogen bonding, as well as π–π stacking between parallel thiazole rings [centroid–centroid distance 3.531 (8) Å], helps to stabilize the crystal structure.

The fluorescent protein fromDendronephthyasp. (DendFP) is a member of the Kaede-like group of photoconvertible fluorescent proteins with a His62-Tyr63-Gly64 chromophore-forming sequence. Upon irradiation with UV and blue light, the fluorescence of DendFP irreversibly changes from green (506 nm) to red (578 nm). The photoconversion is accompanied by cleavage of the peptide backbone at the Cα—N bond of His62 and the formation of a terminal carboxamide group at the preceding Leu61. The resulting double Cα=Cβbond in His62 extends the conjugation of the chromophore π system to include imidazole, providing the red fluorescence. Here, the three-dimensional structures of native green and photoconverted red forms of DendFP determined at 1.81 and 2.14 Å resolution, respectively, are reported. This is the first structure of photoconverted red DendFP to be reported to date. The structure-based mutagenesis of DendFP revealed an important role of positions 142 and 193: replacement of the original Ser142 and His193 caused a moderate red shift in the fluorescence and a considerable increase in the photoconversion rate. It was demonstrated that hydrogen bonding of the chromophore to the Gln116 and Ser105 cluster is crucial for variation of the photoconversion rate. The single replacement Gln116Asn disrupts the hydrogen bonding of Gln116 to the chromophore, resulting in a 30-fold decrease in the photoconversion rate, which was partially restored by a further Ser105Asn replacement.
