Gas-phase molecular structures of BrF5 and IF5: information from electron diffraction and rotational constant data

Nitrosonium Nitrate, an Isomer of N2O4 in IF5

“…3. The IF 5 molecules in the lattice act largely as a diluent, and the structure of the IF 5 molecules is virtually unchanged, if compared to the structures of the free molecule and solid [21,22]. Also the NO + and NO 3 ± ions have typical bond lengths and angles.…”

Synthesis of the N-Terminal N-Myristoylated and S-Palmitoylated Undetrigintapeptide of Endothelial NO-Synthase

“…A key event in this regulation is the generation and release of NO from arginine by endothelial NO-synthase (eNOS) in response to exogeneous signals and the subsequent relaxation of the muscle cells. [1,2] Furthermore eNOS is involved in vascular remodelling and angiogenesis, [3] and contributes to the pathogenesis of blood vessel related disorders like atheriosclerosis. [4,5] The localization of eNOS to the plasma membrane and its concentration in the caveolae, membrane microdomains highly enriched in various signal transducing proteins is crucial to its correct biological functioning.…”

“…In addition to the type and activity of the peroxidase, the lower detection limit of the enzymatic reaction is influenced by the chromogenic or fluorogenic substrate used, as the properties of the detected reaction product play a crucial role. A variety of organic compounds are used as chromogenic substrates, for example, aromatic amines like o-phenylenediamine (OPD), [1] 3,3'-5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB), [2] and also 2,2'-azinobis(3-ethylbenzothiazolin)-6-sulfonate as the diammonium salt (ABTS) [3] . In case of the more sensitive fluorogenic methods the p-hydroxyphenylcarboxylic acids, especially phydroxyphenylacetic acid (pHPA), have found widespread application.…”

Chlorine, Bromine, Iodine and Astatine

“…Concerning the preparation of labelled chlorine and iodine compounds details have been compiled 102 ; synthetic methods appropriate to such bromine compounds have also been outlined 45 . An elegant and effective method of labelling compounds is to inject them on to a gas-chromatography column charged with a radioactive halogen compound.…”

“…The following systems are representative of the reactions of "hot" halogen atoms (X*) which have been investigated in some detail: hydrocarbons +Χ* 45 » 149-151 ; RX-fX* (R = organic group) 45 ' 149 -* 51 ; olefins +X* 156 .…”
