When the horseradish peroxidase reaction is stopped with acid, the decay of unconverted hydrogen peroxide is responsible for the further oxidation of o-phenylenediamine. This leads to a time-dependent flattening of the standard curve in the enzyme immunoassay, after the reaction has been stopped. Addition of reducing agents, such as sulphite ions, to the stopping solution, prevents the further ...

a simple, fast, efficient and environmentally friendly method for synthesis of benzimidazole and its 2-alkyl, aryl and heteroaryl substituted derivatives was developed using zeolite hy. two component cyclolcondensation of 1,2-phenylenediamine (o-phenylenediamine) and commercially available carboxylic acids catalyzed by zeolite hy without any solvent, under microwave irradiation led to formation...

We present results on a new fullerene-based anchoring group for molecular electronics. Using lithographic mechanically controllable break junctions in vacuum we have determined the conductance and stability of single-molecule junctions of 1,4-bis(fullero[c]pyrrolidin-1-yl)benzene. The compound can be self-assembled from solution and has a low-bias conductance of 3 x 10(-4) G0. Compared to 1,4-b...

The nickel complexes 1(+)-3(+) exhibit a delocalized radical character, the extent of which depends on the electronic properties of the phenolate para-substituent.

Here we describe the design of 1,2-phenylenediamine capturing molecule and the synthesis steps necessary for its preparation. The designed 1,2-phenylenediamine derivative is able to capture diacetyl in solution, as shown by ESIMS, forming a chemical adduct, 1-4-quinoxaline. The methyl esters of diacetyl-adduct (DAA) and pentanedione-adduct (PDA) are incorporated to the lysines in BSA and the co...

The metabolism of the fungicide Dexon (p-dimethylaminobenzenediazo sodium sulfonate) by a soil bacterium is reported for the first time. The organism which is capable of using Dexon only by a co-metabolic process was obtained by enrichment culture and was identified as Pseudomonas fragi. The first metabolic product of Dexon was identified as N,N-dimethyl-p-phenylenediamine. The presence of an e...

The N,N'-dimesitylene substituted o-phenylenediamine 1 reacts with Sn[N(SiMe(3))(2)](2) under formation of the monomeric N-heterocyclic stannylene 2, while the chiral N,N'-substituted o-phenylenediamine 3 reacts with E[N(SiMe(3))(2)](2) (E = Ge, Sn) under formation of the chiral germylene 4 and the chiral stannylene 5, respectively. X-Ray diffraction studies with both stannylenes demonstrated t...

Benzoic acid and o-phenylenediamine efficiently reacted under the green solvent-free Ball Milling method. Several reaction parameters were investigated such as rotation frequency; milling balls weight and milling time. The optimum reaction condition was milling with 56.6 g weight of balls at 20 Hz frequency for one hour milling time. The study was extended for synthesis of a series of benzimida...

We study the effect of functional groups (CH3*4, OCH3, CH3, Cl, CN, F*4) on the electronic transport properties of 1,4-benzenediamine molecular junctions using the non-equilibrium Green function method. Exchange and correlation effects are included at various levels of theory, namely density functional theory (DFT), energy level-corrected DFT (DFT+Σ), Hartree-Fock and the many-body GW approxima...
