Increasing Temperature

Available evidence suggests that (1) the stretching frequencies of highly-bent hydrogen bonds decrease with increasing temperature, regardless of whether the bonds are static or dynamic in character, to a single acceptor or to several competing acceptors; and (2) departures from symmetric trifurcation (or bifurcation) toward asymmetric situations lower the stretching frequency. In further support of these criteria isotopic probe ion spectra between 10 K and room temperature have been obtained for taurine and for trigonal (NH4)2MF6 (M = Si, Ge, Sn, Ti). Evidence of a low-temperature transition at 100(10) K in trigonal (NH4)2SnF6 is presented, and existence of the previously reported transition at 38.6 K in trigonal (NH4)2SiF6 is confirmed. Symmetry changes associated with these transitions are discussed.

The epimeric (6aR)- and (6aS)-C-alkyl (methyl, ethyl and isopropyl) derivatives of methyl α-isomaltoside (1) were synthesized in order to examine the effects of introducing alkyl groups of increasing bulk on the rate of catalysis for the hydrolysis of the interunit α-glycosidic bond by the enzyme amyloglucosidase, EC 3.2.1.3, commonly termed glucoamylase (AMG). It was previously established that methyl (6aR)-C-methyl α-isomaltoside is hydrolysed about 2 times faster than methyl α-isomaltoside and about 8 times faster than its S-isomer. The kinetics for the hydrolyses of the ethyl and isopropyl analogs were also recently published. As was expected from molecular model calculations, all the R-epimers are good substrates. A rationale is presented for the catalysis based on conventional mechanistic theories that includes the assistance for the decomposition of the activated complex to products by the presence of a hydrogen bond, which connects the 4a-hydroxyl group to the tryptophane and arginine units. It is proposed that activation of the initially formed complex to the transition state is assisted by the energy released as a result of both of the displacement of perturbed water molecules of hydration at the surfaces of both the polyamphiphilic substrate and the combining site and the establishment of intermolecular hydrogen bonds, i.e., micro-thermodynamics. The dissipation of the heat to the bulk solution is impeded by a shell of aromatic amino acids that surround the combining site. Such shields are known to be located around the combining sites of lectins and carbohydrate specific antibodies and are considered necessary to prevent the disruption of the intermolecular hydrogen bonds, which are of key importance for the stability of the complex. These features together with the exquisite stereoelectronic dispositions of the reacting molecules within the combining site offer a rationalization for the catalysis at ambient temperatures and near neutral pH. The syntheses involved the addition of alkyl Grignard reagents to methyl 6-aldehydo-α-D-glucopyranoside. The addition favoured formation of the S-epimers by over 90%. Useful amounts of the active R-isomers were obtained by epimerization of the chiral centers using conventional methods. Glycosylation of the resulting alcohols under conditions for bromide-ion catalysis, provided methyl (6aS)- and (6aR)-C-alkyl-hepta-O-benzyl-α-isomaltosides. Catalytic hydrogenolysis of the benzyl groups afforded the desired disaccharides. 1H NMR studies established the absolute configurations and provided evidence for conformational preferences.Key words: amyloglucosidase (AMG), exo-anomeric effect, 6-C-alkyl-α-D-glucopyranosides and isomaltosides, mechanism of enzyme catalysis.

Low Temperature Phase

AbstractThe room temperature structure withP21/csymmetry of the zinc(II) complex of pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid was published by Okabe and Oya (N. Okabe, N. Oya, Copper(II) and zinc(II) complexes of pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid.Acta Crystallogr. C.2000,56, 305). Here we report crystal structure of the low temperature phaseβ-[Zn(pydcH)2]·3H2O, pydc=C7H3NO4, resulting from the phase transition around 200K. The diffraction pattern of the low temperature phase revealed satellite reflections, which could be indexed with q-vector 0.4051(10)b* corresponding to (3+1)Dincommensurately modulated structure. The modulated structure was solved in the superspace groupX21/c(0b0)s0, whereXstands for a non-standard centring vector (½, 0, 0, ½), and compared with the room temperature phase. It is shown that hydrogen bonds are the main driving force of modulation.

The structures of 4-chloro-3-nitroaniline, C6H5ClN2O2, (I), and 4-iodo-3-nitroaniline, C6H5IN2O2, (II), are isomorphs and both undergo continuous (second order) phase transitions at 237 and 200 K, respectively. The structures, as well as their phase transitions, have been studied by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy and difference scanning calorimetry experiments. Both high-temperature phases (293 K) show disorder of the nitro substituents, which are inclined towards the benzene-ring planes at two different orientations. In the low-temperature phases (120 K), both inclination angles are well maintained, while the disorder is removed. Concomitantly, thebaxis doubles with respect to the room-temperature cell. Each of the low-temperature phases of (I) and (II) contains two pairs of independent molecules, where the molecules in each pair are related by noncrystallographic inversion centres. The molecules within each pair have the same absolute value of the inclination angle. The Flack parameter of the low-temperature phases is very close to 0.5, indicating inversion twinning. This can be envisaged as stacking faults in the low-temperature phases. It seems that competition between the primary amine–nitro N—H...O hydrogen bonds which form three-centred hydrogen bonds is the reason for the disorder of the nitro groups, as well as for the phase transition in both (I) and (II). The backbones of the structures are formed by N—H...N hydrogen bonding of moderate strength which results in the graph-set motifC(3). This graph-set motif forms a zigzag chain parallel to the monoclinicbaxis and is maintained in both the high- and the low-temperature structures. The primary amine groups are pyramidal, with similar geometric values in all four determinations. The high-temperature phase of (II) has been described previously [Gardenet al.(2004).Acta Cryst.C60, o328–o330].
