Photo-induced fractionation of water isotopomers in the Martian atmosphere.
The history and size of the water reservoirs on early Mars can be constrained using isotopic ratios of deuterium to hydrogen. We present new laboratory measurements of the ultraviolet cross-sections of H2O and its isotopomers, and modeling calculations in support of a photo-induced fractionation effect (PHIFE), that reconciles a discrepancy between past theoretical modeling and recent observati...
متن کاملThe Potential of 13C Isotopomers as a Test for the Vibrational Theory of Olfactory Sense Recognition
The continuing debate over the basis of odorant recognition with respect to the molecular shape ("lock and key") theory versus the vibrational theory could potentially be resolved by the testing of (13)C-labeled odorants. The application of (13)C isotopomers is discussed herein by means of DFT-calculated IR vibrations and Gibbs' free energies (ΔG) for acetophenone and octan-1-ol, two odorants f...
متن کاملEnantioselective synthesis of chiral isotopomers of 1-alkanols by a ZACA-Cu-catalyzed cross-coupling protocol.
Chiral compounds arising from the replacement of hydrogen atoms by deuterium are very important in organic chemistry and biochemistry. Some of these chiral compounds have a non-measurable specific rotation, owing to very small differences between the isotopomeric groups, and exhibit cryptochirality. This particular class of compounds is difficult to synthesize and characterize. Herein, we prese...
متن کاملDetermination of protein synthesis in vivo using labeling from deuterated water and analysis of MALDI-TOF spectrum.
This paper describes a method of determining protein synthesis and turnover using in vivo labeling of protein with deuterated water and analysis of matrix-assisted laser desorption time-of-flight mass spectrometer (MALDI-TOF) spectrum. Protein synthesis is calculated using mass isotopomer distribution analysis instead of precursor to product amino acid enrichment ratio. During protein synthesis...
