Rapid semiquantitative measurement of total porphyrins in urine and feces by magnetic circular dichroism.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Magnetic circular dichroism is a suitable technique for semiquantitative determination of total porphyrins in urine and feces, being rapid, reliable, and involving little sample preparation. The sensitivity of the assay suffices to distinguish normal from above-normal concentrations of total porphyrins in urine and feces. Results for urine compare well with those obtained by thin-layer chromatography of porphyrin esters (n = 42, r = 0.92) or ion-exchange column chromatography of porphyrin acids (n = 19, r = 0.80).

Magnetic circular dichroism study of directly fused porphyrins.
The magnetic circular dichroism (MCD) spectra of doubly and triply linked fused bisporphyrins (2MD and 2MT, M = Ni, Zn, Cu, Pd, and H2) and triply linked higher oligomers (3ZnT and 4ZnT) have been measured, and their Q-bands assigned based on the results of INDO/s calculations. In contrast to the Faraday A term observed for the Q(0,0) band of Ni(II) tetraphenylporphyrin, a single positive Farad...
متن کاملProbing ring currents in Mg-porphyrins by pump-probe spectroscopy.
Theoretical studies of Manz et al. have shown that upon excitation of a Mg-porphyrin molecule with a circularly polarized laser pulse, a ring current can be generated that is much stronger than what can be induced by means of an external magnetic field with present technology. We show that the circular dichroism signal of a Mg-porphyrin molecule that has been excited to a state with an inner ri...
متن کاملMagnetic circular dichroism of ferrous carbonyl adducts of cytochromes P-450 and P-420 and their synthetic models: further evidence for mercaptide as the fifth ligand to iron.
Absorption and magnetic circular dichroism (MCD) spectra have been obtained for the ferrous carbonyl adducts of cytochromes P-450 and P-420 as well as synthetic model systems. Ferrous porphyrins with sodium methyl mercaptide and CO in benzene give MCD and absorption spectra which are almost identical to those of the natural enzyme, indicating that in P-450 a mercaptide serves as the fifth ligan...
متن کاملRing-fused porphyrins: extension of π-conjugation significantly affects the aromaticity and optical properties of the porphyrin π-systems and the Lewis acidity of the central metal ions.
Here, we report the effects of ring fusion, which causes expansion of the π-conjugation circuits of the porphyrin derivatives to the fused meso-aryl groups, on the aromaticity and the magnetic properties of porphyrin derivatives. These studies revealed the facts that the ring fusion with five-membered rings causes not only the remarkable red shifts of the absorption bands and narrowed HOMO-LUMO...
متن کاملRestoring the Co magnetic moments at interfacial Co-porphyrin arrays by site-selective uptake of iron.
Magnetochemistry recently emerged as a promising approach to control addressable spin arrays on surfaces. Here we report on the binding, spatial ordering, and magnetic properties of Fe on a highly regular Co-tetraphenylporphyrin (Co-TPP) template and highlight how the Fe controls the magnetism of the Co centers. As evidenced by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) single Fe atoms attach to the s...
