ZnO nanorods and nanoparticles have been easily prepared via the decomposition of two simple Schiff base zinc (II) complexes, namely (N,N'–disalicylalethylenediamine)zince(II) and (N,N'–disalicylalphenylenediamine)zince(II) under microwave irradiation. The decomposition products of the complexes were characterized by FT-IR, XRD, SEM, EDX and UV-visible spectroscopy.  FT-IR, XRD and EDX results ...

ABSTRACT. A mixed-ligand zinc(II) complex, [Zn(Hpma)(phen)Cl] (where Hpma– = N-(2,6-dimethylphenyl)oxamate and phen 1,10-phenanthroline), has been prepared by the reaction of zinc chloride, ethyl (2,6-dimethylphenylcarbamoyl)formate (Hdmp) 1,10-phenanthroline under basic conditions in dimethylformamide. The structure complex was characterised elemental analysis, IR, 1H-NMR, UV-Vis absorption X-...

Some methanogenic and acetogenic microorganisms have the catalytic capability to cleave heterolytically the C O bond of methanol. To obtain insight into the elusive enzymatic mechanism of this challenging chemical reaction we have investigated the methanol-activating MtaBC complex from Methanosarcina barkeri composed of the zinc-containing MtaB and the 5-hydroxybenzimidazolylcobamide-carrying M...

The title zinc(II) complexes, [Zn(C34H54N2O2)], (II), and [Zn(C28H42N2O2)(C4H8O)], (III), were obtained as monomeric 1:1 complexes, in contrast with the calcium complexes supported by the same ligand class. Complex (II) crystallizes with two independent molecules in the asymmetric unit, which have similar geometric parameters. The donor atoms in (II) form a distorted trigonal±pyramidal arrangem...

A zinc(II) containing configurationally restricted analogue of bismacrocyclic cyclam-type CXCR4 chemokine receptor antagonists has been synthesized and shown to adopt only one configuration in solution. The single crystal X-ray structure reveals favorable binding to acetate via a bidentate chelation that can be related to the proposed interaction with aspartate on the receptor protein surface. ...

2,6-Diacetylpyridinebis(benzenesulfonylhydrazide) (2,6-DAPBSH) and its zinc(II) complex have been synthesized and characterized by X-ray crystallography. The ligand crystallizes in the monoclinic crystal system, space group Cc, with cell parameter = 16.808(2) Å ́ , b = 16.328(2) Å ́ , c = 8.2670(11) Å ́ , b = 91.869(9) , while the zinc(II) complex crystallizes in the orthorhombic crystal system, s...

In current study, nanoparticles and single crystals of a Zn(II) coordination complex, [Zn(dmph)I2](1), {dmph=2,9-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline(neocuproine)}, have been synthesized by the reaction of zinc(II) acetate, KI and neocuproine as ligand in methanol using sonochemical and heat gradient methods, respectively. The nanostructure of 1 was characte...

Transcription by RNA polymerase II requires the assembly of the general transcription factors at the promoter to form a pre-initiation complex. The general transcription factor TF (transcription factor) IIB plays a central role in the assembly of the pre-initiation complex, providing a bridge between promoter-bound TFIID and RNA polymerase II/TFIIF. We have characterized a series of TFIIB mutan...

a novel complex of cadmium (ii) [cdl0.5(no3)(h2o)](1), l= n,n-bis (o-hydroxyacetophenone) ethylene diamine, have been synthesized as single crystal and nano size. compound 1 in nano size was obtained under sonochemical irradiation and has been characterized by ir, 1hnmr spectroscopy, x-ray powder diffraction (xrd) and scanning electron microscopy (sem). the gray single crystal of compound 1 has...

This work describes the synthesis of a novel zinc(II) porphyrin complex, namely [Meso-4α-tetra-(1,2,3-triazolyl)phenylporphyrinato]zinc(II) symbolized by 4α-[Zn(TAzPP)] (4), using click chemistry approach in presence copper iodide. All synthetic species reported herein were fully characterized elemental analysis, infrared spectroscopy, proton nuclear magnetic resonance, UV-visible and fluoresce...
