The particulate methane monooxygenase (pMMO) of Methylosinus trichosporium OB3b oxidized n-butane and n-pentane and mainly produced (R)-2-butanol and (R)-2-pentanol that comprised 78 and 89% of the product, respectively, indicating that the pro-R hydrogen of the 2-position carbon of n-butane and
The synthesis and assembly properties of a new water-soluble deep-cavity cavitand are discussed. For a homologous series of alkanes, the host can form a range of approximately isoenergetic 1:1, 2:1, and 2:2 complexes. As a result of this 'confluence' of binding and assembly the host displays an
Better control of the product selectivity of light olefins (e.g., ethylene and propylene) obtained from the n-pentane catalytic cracking process has attracted considerable attention from both scientific and petrochemical industrial points of view. In this context, we report insights into the effects
We have examined the adsorption of n-pentane in several representative zeolites such as silicalite (MFI), ferrierite (FER), zeolite L (LTL), and faujasite zeolites with FAU structure including siliceous Y (Si-Y) and Na-Y by using FT-Raman spectroscopy in combination with thermogravimetric analysis
The conversion of n-pentane was carried out to examine the effects of reaction conditions on changes in product selectivities at 823 K, using zeolites with 10- and 12-membered rings. We also investigated the influence of the pore structure of these zeolites on their catalytic activities for both
Dodecavanadate, [V12 O32 ]4- (V12), possesses a 4.4 Å cavity entrance, and the cavity shows unique electrophilicity. Owing to the high polarizability, Br2 was inserted into V12, inducing the inversion of one of the VO5 square pyramids to form
OBJECTIVE
To develop an expanding gas tamponade allowing a controlled and complete filling of the vitreous cavity in the non-vitrectomized eye.
METHODS
Twenty-two different liquid fluorocarbon mixtures with a high vapour pressure were tested in an in vitro eye model and in rabbit eyes. The
Fully atomistic molecular dynamics simulations were performed on liquid n-pentane, n-hexane, and n-heptane to derive an atomistic model for middle-chain-length alkanes. All simulations were based on existing molecular-mechanical parameters for alkanes. The computational protocol was optimized, for
A simpler method for the purification of cucurbit[10]uril (Q[10]) from the Q[10].Q[5] inclusion complex is reported. 1,12-Diaminododecane was used to displace Q[5], as opposed to the synthetic melamine derivative currently used. The binding of
The structure and properties of natural gas hydrates containing hydrocarbons, CO₂, and N₂ molecules were studied by using computational quantum chemistry methods via the density functional theory approach. All host cages involved in I, II, and H types structures where filled with hydrocarbons up to
The reversible encapsulation of a series of normal alkane guests in a cylindrical host was studied by NMR methods. For small hydrocarbons such as n-pentane or n-hexane, two guests enter the host, and they move freely within. With n-heptane no encapsulation takes place. For longer alkanes such as
The current study investigates evaporation of liquid hydrocarbons from a circular well cavity of small depth. Gravimetric analysis is performed to measure the evaporation rate and digital holographic interferometry is used for the measurement of normalized mole fraction profile inside the vapor
Carboxyalkyl peptides containing a biphenylylethyl group at the P1' position were found to be potent inhibitors of stromelysin-1 (MMP-3) and gelatinase A (MMP-2), in the range of 10-50 nM, but poor inhibitors of collagenase (MMP-1). Combination of a biphenylylethyl moiety at P1', a tert-butyl group
The title compound, 5(2)-[(5-bromo-pent-yl)-oxy]-1(2),1(14),3(5),5(5)-tetra-tert-butyl-1(7),1(8),1(9),1(10)-tetra-hydro-1(6) H,1(16) H-1(4,12)-dibenzo[b,e][1,7]dioxa-cyclo-dodecina-3,5(1,3)-dibenzena-cyclo-hexa-phan-3(2)-ol, C54H73BrO4, was synthesized from the reaction of tert-butyl-calix[4]arene
From pentane extracts of worker heads of the stingless bee (Scaptotrigona postica), 70 volatile compounds were identified by combined gas chromatographic-mass spectroscopic analyses. A bioassay was developed to evaluate intranidal reactions of workers to synthetic volatiles. Thirty-six of the
