in this research, we report the results of dft calculations using xc-hybrid functional, b3lyp and employ nbo interpretation to investigate the stereoelectronic effects. electrostatic and steric impacts on the conformational properties of 1,2-difluorodiazene (1), 1,2-dichlorodiazene (2) and 1,2-dibromodiazene (3) are also studied. factors determining the thermodynamically stable molecular struct...

Cultures of ruminal bacteria known to metabolize unsaturated fatty acids were grown in medium containing 50 microg ml(-1) of geometric and positional isomers of conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) or 18 : 1 fatty acids and 37.4 % deuterium oxide to investigate the mechanisms responsible for fatty acid metabolism. Butyrivibrio fibrisolvens JW11 converted cis-9,trans-11-18 : 2 and trans-9,trans-11-18 ...

Amyloid-β (Aβ) self-assembly into cross-β amyloidfibrils is implicated in a causative role in Alzheimer’s disease pathology.Uncertainties persist regarding the mechanisms of amyloid self assembly and the role of metastable prefibrillar aggregates. Aβ fibrilsfeature a sheet-turn-sheet motif in the constituent β-strands; as such, turn nucleation has been proposed as a rate-limiting step in the se...

It has come to our attention that the following sentence contains an error: “However, while octahedra in MIL-53 are cis-connected, CAU-10 trans-connected.” The words “cis” and “trans” should be swapped read trans-connected, cis-connected.”

In the present study, theoretical chemical reactivates Photo isomerization in Cis-Retinal as a Natural Photo switch in Vision. DFT hybrid functional, B3LYP and, post-HF method, were the theoretical methods applied utilizing G09 software. 6-31G+ (d,p) basis set employed for structural optimizations, and single point computations performed using B3LYP/6-31G+(d,p). The isomers cis molecule retinal...

1. The metabolism of cis- and trans-decalin in the rabbit has been investigated. 2. Both hydrocarbons were oxidized to racemic secondary alcohols and excreted as ether glucuronides in amounts equal to about 60% of the dose administered. The principal glucuronides were isolated as triacetyl methyl esters and as sodium salts. 3. cis-Decalin gave rise mainly to (+/-)-cis-cis-2-decalol, together wi...

in this paper the synthesis of some new polyaromatic monocyclic β-lactams has been reported. these cycloadducts have been synthesized by the [2+2] ketene-imine cycloaddition reaction known as the staudinger reaction. all of the products have been fully characterized by ir, 1h-nmr, 13c-nmr, mass spectroscopy and elemental analyses. the x-ray crystal structure of a cis β-lactam has been also pres...

The kinetics of the ruthenium-promoted cis,cis to trans,trans isomerization of 1,1,2,2,5,5,6,6-octamethyl-1,2,5,6-tetrasilacycloocta-3,7-diene were investigated. Incubation of a ruthenium alkylidene complex, (Cy(3)P)RuCl(2)(==CHPh)Ru(p-cymene)Cl(2), in CD(2)Cl(2) for 5 days at 40 degrees C afforded a catalytically active ruthenium species that was shown to be responsible for promoting the isome...

First row transition metal complexes of phthalocyanine are employed as catalysts for the oxidation of cyclohexene and cyclooctene using iodosylbenzene and pentafluoroiodosyl benzene. The catalysis was performed in dichloromethane: methanol:water (80:18:2) solvent mixture.  The products of the catalysis for cyclohexene are epoxycyclohexane, 2-cyclohexene-1-ol and 2-cyclohexene-1-one whereas ...
