The PE spectra of the nitrogen-rich title compounds cyanogen azide NC-N3, azodicarbonitrile NC - N = N - CN, azidoacetonitrile NC - H2C - N3, tetrazolo[1,5-a]pyridine (H4C5N)(N )3 and trimethylenetetrazole (H2C)3(CN4) are presented and assigned by radical cation state comparison with related compounds or by Koopmans’ correlation with MNDO eigenvalues. In a low pressure flow system the compounds decompose at higher temperatures, with elimination of the thermodynamically favorable N2 molecule. PE-spectroscopic real-time analysis reveals as further products: NC - N3 → C∞, NC - N = N - CN → NC - CN , NC - H2C - N3 → 2HCN (+ traces NC - HC = NH?) and (H2C)3(CN4) → H2C = N - CN + H2C = CH2. For tetrazolo[1,5-a]pyridine, a preceding ring opening to the corresponding 2-azidopyridine is observed.
The radical anion of dimesityltetraketone (ERed, I = -0.40 V) is easily generated in THF by potassium mirror/[2.2.2]-cryptand reduction. Its contact ion pairs with Na⊕, Cs⊕ and Ba⊕⊕ counter cations, prepared in THF solution by single electron transfer from the respective metals, are characterized by their ESR/ENDOR spectra, which exhibit temperature-dependent metal couplings of aNa⊕ = 0.061 mT (190 K), aCs⊕ = 0.021 mT (190 K), and aBa⊕⊕ = 0.145 mT (295 K).
A phase equilibrium study of the systems dimethyldichlorosilane with 2.4-lutidine and 2.6-lutidine is presented with evidence for the existence of the incongruently melting compounds 2.6-lutidine · Me2SiCl2, (2.6-lutidine)2 · Me2SiCl2 and the congruently melting compound 2.4-lutidine · Me2SiCl2.
A thermodynamic interpretation of the liquidus curves of some methyltrichloro-respectively dimethyldichlorosilane/lutidine-systems is given. Based on certain approximations it was possible to fit thermodynamic functions to the experimental results to obtain the excess datas of binary systems. A comparison between the models of Redlich-Kister, Wilson and the NRTL-formalism for the free excess enthalpy of binary mixtures is given.
Lactate dehydrogenase from pig heart is inactivated by the NAD+ -analog P1-N6-(4-azidophenylethyl)adenosine-P2-[4-(3-azidopyridinio)butyl]diphosphate (6) upon irradiation with UV light of wavelengths in the range from 300 to 380 nm. The decrease in enzyme activity can be prevented by the addition of NAD+ and oxalate. The modified enzyme shows a reduced binding capacity for its coenzyme as compared to native lactate dehydrogenase. The amount of incorporated coenzyme is deduced from the ribose content of inactivated enzyme. Tryptic digestion of the modified protein and separation of the peptides by HPLC yields 5 ribose-containing fractions. One of them, fraction 6 6 , is split by treatment with nucleotide pyrophosphatase into two subfractions, 63 and 58. Only subfraction 63 contains ribose. Whereas peptide 58 shows a UV absorption spectrum similar to that of 4-(3-aminopyridinio)-butyl phosphate (3). Amino acid analyses of the peptides indicate that the inactivator forms covalent bonds with different parts of the protein: Peptide 63 is characterized by a great portion of hydrophobic amino acids whereas peptide 58 shows a high degree of hydrophilicity.
