چکیده

Rhodium(II) metallopeptides display useful secondary structure, self-assembly, and catalytic activity. The bis-peptide complexes exhibit subtle orientational isomerism that affects function, but is challenging to characterize. We report that pyrene excimer fluorescence measurements provide a conclusive proof of isomeric structure.

DNA hydrolysis and oxidative cleavage by metal-binding peptides tethered to rhodium intercalators.

With the goal of developing artificial nucleases for DNA hydrolysis, metal-coordinating peptides have been tethered to a DNA-intercalating rhodium complex to deliver metal ions to the sugar-phosphate backbone. The intercalator, [Rh(phi)(2)bpy']Cl(3) [phi = 9,10-phenanthrenequinone diimine; bpy' = 4-(butyric acid)-4'-methyl-2,2'-bipyridine], provides DNA binding affinity, and a metal-binding pep...

New fluorogenic triacylglycerol analogs as substrates for the determination and chiral discrimination of lipase activities.

A new type of fluorogenic and isomerically pure 1(3)-O-alkyl-2,3 (3,2)-diacyl glycerols was synthesized that can be used as substrate for the determination of lipase activities. These compounds contain a fluorescent pyrene acyl chain and, as a potent quencher of pyrene fluorescence, a trinitrophenylamino acyl residue. In their intact form, the fluorogens show only low fluorescence intensity. Up...

Determination of Rhodium(III) Ions by Flame Atomic Absorption Spectrometry after Preconcentration with Modified Magnetic Activated Carbon

A new method for analysis of trace amount of Rh(III) ions by magnetic activated carbon modified with 2,3,5,6-tetra(2-pyridyl)pyrazine (MAC/TPPZ) as the magnetic sorbent has been proposed. The proposed adsorbent was found to be advantageous over conventional solid phase extraction (SPE) in terms of operational simplicity and low time-consuming. The experimental parameters affecting the extractio...

Single molecule spectroscopic studies of organic rectifiers composed of pyrene and perylenebisimide

Single molecule spectroscopic characteristics of two organic molecular rectifiers are reported. Composed of pyrene as the donor and perylenebisimide (PBI) as the acceptor, these groups are separated by bridges of one or four carbon atoms. Whereas the solution phase absorption and fluorescence spectra are similar, spectra are much more diverse and exhibit different degrees of photostability at t...

4-Aryl-2, 6-di(pyren-1-yl)pyridines: A facile procedure for synthesis and studying of fluorescence properties

Pyrene and its derivatives exhibit thermal stability, high extinction coefficients, excimer formation, high photoluminescence, long fluorescence lifetime, fluorophoric properties and enhanced charge carrier mobility which make them find applications in optoelectronic area and are useful as large planar synthetic building blocks in supramolecular chemistry. One of the approaches to overcome this...
