A spectroscopic investigation of complexes used to catalyze the oxidative carbonylation of toluene to p-toluic acid was conducted. Rhodium complexes were analyzed by (103)Rh and (13)C NMR, UV-visible spectroscopy, and infrared spectroscopy. In the presence of vanadium and oxygen, the resting state of the Rh-catalyst was found to exist as a Rh(III) complex with carbonyl and trifluoroacetate liga...

aminocarboxylic acids, such as 2-aminobenzoic acid, react easily with [ir(cod)(pme3)3]cl, (cod=1,5-cyclooctadiene), in thf to produce hydridoaminocarboxylato iridium(iii) complexes in high yields. these octahedral complexes are formed via oxidative addition reaction of the o-h bond of the carboxylic group with the central metal. the starting iridium(i) complex losses the cod molecule, the chlor...

The conceptually construction of axially chiral indolostilbenesi.eN-(2-{(E)-2-[2'-(1-Acetyl-1H-indol-2-yl)-3'chloro4,4',6,6'-tetramethoxy[1,1'-biphenyl]-2yl]ethenyl}phenyl)acetamide and N-(2-{(E)-2-[2'-(1-Acetyl-1H-indol-2-yl)-3'-chloro-2,4',6,6'tetramethoxy[1,1'-biphenyl]-4-yl]ethenyl}phenyl) acetamide are described in this paper. These structure, were obtained by the tactical combination of p...

First published July 25, 2003; 10.1152/japplphysiol.00909.2002.—Contribution of octanoate to the oxidative metabolism of the major sites of fatty acid oxidation (heart, liver, and resting and contracting skelet...

In contrast to molecular chaperones that couple protein folding to ATP hydrolysis, protein disulfide-isomerase (PDI) catalyzes protein folding coupled to formation of disulfide bonds (oxidative folding). However, we do not know how PDI distinguishes folded, partly-folded and unfolded protein substrates. As a model intermediate in an oxidative folding pathway, we prepared a two-disulfide mutant ...

21 vanadium bis-phenolate benzimidazolyidene complexes spanning three oxidation states have been investigated. Special emphasis is thereby laid on their salt metathesis reactivity and the accessibility of +IV state by reductive or oxidative routes, starting from vanadium(V) vanadium(III) respectively. While route highly depended reducing agent material used, gives clean access to vanadium(IV) d...

INTRODUCTION: In vivo experiments conducted by infusing C labeled substrates (glucose and acetate) together with C NMR spectroscopy have given important insight for the neuronal and astroglial metabolism. These studies have established that neurotransmitter cycle is stoichiometrically coupled to the neuronal glucose oxidation indicating neurotransmitter energetics is supported by oxidative gluc...

Antipyrine is a useful probe to evaluate variation of in vivo activities of oxidative hepatic drug-metabolizing enzymes. Here we describe an approach using (13)C labeling and NMR spectroscopy for the direct and simultaneous analysis of major metabolites of antipyrine in human urine. [C-Methyl-(13)C]antipyrine (500 mg) was dosed orally to human volunteers, and the post-dose urine was analyzed by...

A 2,4-diarylquinoline derivative, 2-(4-chlorophenyl)-4-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-6-methoxy-3-methylquinoline, was synthesized in a conventional two-step procedure from p-anisidine, p-chlorobenzaldehyde and methyl isoeugenol as available starting reagents through sequence of BF3·OEt2-catalyzed Povarov cycloaddition reaction/oxidative dehydrogenation aromatization processes under microwave irradiatio...
