The process of reduction (by hydrogen and ethanol) and oxidation (by oxygen and NO) of Cu sites in dealuminated faujasite-type zeolites (of Si/Al = 31) was studied by infrared (IR) spectroscopy with CO (for Cu+) and NO (for Cu2+) as probe molecules. Two zeolites were studied: one of them contained mostly Cu+exch., whereas another one contained mostly Cu2+ and Cu+ox. The susceptibility of various forms of Cu for reduction were investigated. IR experiments of CO sorption evidenced that Cu+ox. was more prone for the reduction than Cu+exch. According to NO sorption studies, Cu2+exch. was reduced in the first order before Cu2+ox. Ethanol reduced mostly Cu2+ and, also, some amounts of Cu+. The treatment with oxygen caused the oxidation of Cu+ (both Cu+exch. and Cu+ox.) to Cu2+. The adsorption of NO at 190K produced Cu+(NO)2 dinitrosyls, but heating to room temperature transformed dinitrosyls to mononitrosyls and increased the Cu2+ content.

The properties of both Cu2+ and Cu+ ions in zeolite CuY were followed with NO and CO as probe molecules. Cu2+ was found to be located in SII, SII*, and SIII sites, whereas Cu+ was found in SII and SII* sites. The fine analysis of the spectra of Cu2+-NO and Cu+-CO adducts suggests that both in SII and in SII* sites two kinds of Cu cations exist. They differ in the positive charge, which may be related to the varying numbers of AlO4− in close proximity. The experiments of NO and CO adsorption and desorption evidenced that both Cu2+ and Cu+ sites of highest positive charge bind probe molecules most strongly but activate them to a lesser extent than the Cu sites of lowest positive charge. The experiments of reduction with hydrogen evidenced that the Cu ions of higher positive charge are first reduced by hydrogen. On the other hand, Cu sites of the lowest positive charge are first oxidized by oxygen. The experiments with CuNaY zeolites of various Cu contents suggest that the first introduced Cu (at low Cu contents) created Cu+, which was the most neutralized by framework oxygens. Such Cu cations are the most stabilized by framework oxygens.

The title compound, i.e., [RuCl2(η6-p-cymene)(PPh2NHnPr)] (2), was obtained in a 71% yield by reacting a toluene solution of the chlorophosphine complex [RuCl2(η6-p-cymene)(PPh2Cl)] (1) with two equivalents of n-propylamine at room temperature. The aminophosphine complex 2 was characterized by elemental analysis, multinuclear NMR (31P{1H}, 1H and 13C{1H}) and IR spectroscopy. In addition, its catalytic behavior in the hydration of benzonitrile was briefly explored.

N,N′,N″,N‴-Tetraisopropylpyrophosphoramide 1 is a pyrophosphoramide with documented butyrylcholinesterase inhibition, a property shared with the more widely studied octamethylphosphoramide (Schradan). Unlike Schradan, 1 is a solid at room temperature making it one of a few known pyrophosphoramide solids. The crystal structure of 1 was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction and compared with that of other previously described solid pyrophosphoramides. The pyrophosphoramide discussed in this study was synthesised by reacting iso-propyl amine with pyrophosphoryl tetrachloride under anhydrous conditions. A unique supramolecular motif was observed when compared with previously published pyrophosphoramide structures having two different intermolecular hydrogen bonding synthons. Furthermore, the potential of a wider variety of supramolecular structures in which similar pyrophosphoramides can crystallise was recognised. Proton (1H) and Phosphorus 31 (31P) Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, infrared (IR) spectroscopy, mass spectrometry (MS) were carried out to complete the analysis of the compound.

Abstract The possible interactions between oligoamidephosphate (OAPli) and the curatives of a sulphenamide-accelerated sulphur vulcanizing system were studied by differential scanning calorimetry, IR-spectroscopy, and X-ray analysis. The interactions in double mixtures were between OAPh and zinc oxide (ZnO) and OAPh and sulphur. The OAPh/ZnO interaction that starts at room temperature seems to be the key for understanding the peculiarities of sulphenamide-accelerated sulphur vulcanization in the presence of OAPh.

ABSTRACT Pediocin PA-1 is a food grade antimicrobial peptide that has been used as a food preservative. Upon storage at 4°C or room temperature, pediocin PA-1 looses activity, and there is a concomitant 16-Da increase in the molecular mass. It is shown that the loss of activity follows first-order kinetics and that the instability can be prevented by replacing the single methionine residue (Met31) in pediocin PA-1. Replacing Met by Ala, Ile, or Leu protected the peptide from oxidation and had only minor effects on bacteriocin activity (for most indicator strains 100% activity was maintained). Replacement of Met by Asp was highly deleterious for bacteriocin activity.

Abstract A simple, specific, and rapid kinetic study of benazepril (BNZ) hydrolysis was developed and validated using HPLC. BNZ was degraded using 0.1 N sodium hydroxide at room temperature to produce benazeprilat, which is an active metabolite of BNZ and acts as an angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor. Analysis was carried out using an Athena C18 column (4.6 × 250 mm, 5 µm particle size). The mobile phase consists of a mixture of phosphate buffer (pH 4.5) and acetonitrile (53 + 47, v/v) at a flow rate of 1 mL/min. UV detection was accomplished at 242 nm using moexipril as the internal standard. The method was validated according to International Conference on Harmonization guidelines, and the calibration curve was linear over the range 10–100 µg/mL, with acceptable accuracy and precision. Kinetic profiling of the hydrolysis was shown to follow pseudo-first-order kinetics. The method was applied to the assay of BNZ in combined dosage form with no interference from other ingredients. The obtained results were statistically compared with those of the official method, showing no significant difference.
