Structural analysis of toluene-o-xylene monooxygenase (ToMO) hydroxylase revealed the presence of three hydrophobic cavities, a channel, and a pore leading from the protein surface to the active site. Here, saturation mutagenesis was used to investigate the catalytic roles of alpha-subunit (TouA)
The Cu(2+) ions in the title compounds, namely bis[1,3-bis(pentafluorophenyl)propane-1,3-dionato-κ(2)O,O']copper(II) p-xylene n-solvate, [Cu(C15HF10O2)2]·nC8H10, with n = 1, (I), n = 2, (II), and n = 4, (III), are coordinated by two 1,3-bis(pentafluorophenyl)propane-1,3-dionate ligands. The
Convergent synthetic routes for the preparation of hitherto unknown fluorene-p-xylene oligomers (containing up to 10 fluorene moieties) from readily available starting materials are described. The conformationally adaptable monomeric receptor (which is made of a pair of fluorene and one p-xylene
[m]Bp-ExPn with a rigid and nanometer-sized cavity, as an extended version of pillar[n]arene by replacing 1,4-dimethoxybenzene monomers with biphenyl entities, was synthesized for the first time. Intriguingly, toluene and m-xylene can be stably included within the cavity of [2]Bp-ExP6, which endows
We describe the implementation of a mid-infrared laser-based trace gas sensor with a photoreaction chamber, used for reproducing chemical transformations of benzene, toluene, and p-xylene (BTX) gases that may occur in the atmosphere. The system performance was assessed in the presence of
OBJECTIVE
The aim of this study was to assess the exposure of patients to organic substances produced and identified in surgical smoke formed in the abdominal cavity during laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
METHODS
Identification of these substances in surgical smoke was performed by the use of gas
The delta form of crystalline syndiotactic polystyrene is a clathrate molecular compound in which various aromatic molecules are encaged. We have investigated the size, shape, and connectivity of the molecular cavity in the crystal using a molecular dynamics simulation. The effects of the guest
The solubility and the partitioning of p- and o-xylene in aqueous solutions containing M-alpha-CD, a partially methylated alpha-cyclodextrin, and the anionic surfactant sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) were studied by extraction experiments to evaluate the applicability of liquid membrane permeation for
The four-component toluene/o-xylene monooxygenase (ToMO) from Pseudomonas stutzeri OX1 is capable of oxidizing arenes, alkenes, and haloalkanes at a carboxylate-bridged diiron center similar to that of soluble methane monooxygenase (sMMO). The remarkable variety of substrates accommodated by ToMO
Understanding, controlling, and utilizing the flexibility of adsorbents are of great importance and difficulty. Analogous with conventional solid materials, downsizing to the nanoscale is emerging as a possible strategy for controlling the flexibility of porous coordination polymers (or
This study reports on dual on-column Fabry-Pérot (FP) cavity sensor-based gas chromatography (GC) of mixtures of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) utilizing an on-chip device, the so called "microfabricated passive preconcentrator/injector (μPPI)". Comprehensive analysis of the sampling,
Porous organic cages composed of discrete cage molecules have attracted considerable recent attention as gas adsorption materials and separation media. In this study, we report a homochiral porous organic cage CC5 with a large cavity and pore windows as a novel stationary phase for high-resolution
The original reaction move for the reaction ensemble Monte Carlo (RxMC) method is adapted to align both the position and orientation of inserted product molecules and deleted reactant molecules. The accuracy and efficiency of this move is demonstrated for xylene isomerization in vapor, liquid, and
The ability of cucurbit[6]uril (CB6) and cucurbit[7]uril (CB7) to catalyze the thermally activated 1,2-methyl shift isomerization pathway of m-xylene in vacuum is investigated using infrequent metadynamics. CB6 is predicted to effectively and selectively catalyze the
Silanisation of quartz substrate surfaces with a mixture of two chlorosilanes, namely trimethylchlorosilane and 7-octenyldimethylchlorosilane, leads to sensitive coatings for volatile organic compounds (VOC) on surface acoustic wave (SAW) devices. In this way we created monolayers of molecular
