Download or read book Time Resolved Vibrational Spectroscopy V written by Hiroaki Takahashi and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The work contained in this volume is representative of the presentations made by the participants at the Fifth International Conference on Time-Resolved Vibra tional Spectroscopy, which was held at Waseda University, Tokyo, Japan, from June 3 to 7, 1991. The conference was the fifth in a biennial series initiated in 1982 by Prof. George H. Atkinson (University of Arizona) at Lake Placid, USA, and subsequently convened by Prof. Alfred Laubereau (University of Bayreuth, Germany) and Dr. Manfred Stockburger (Max-Planck Institut, G6ttingen, Ger many) at Bayreuth-BischofsgrUn, Germany, in 1985, by Prof. Joop D.W. Van Voorst (University of Amsterdam) at Amersfoort, The Netherlands, in 1987, and by Prof. Thomas G. Spiro (princeton University) at Princeton, USA, in 1989. The purpose of the conference is to bring together researchers from various disciplines and provide a forum for discussion of the latest advances in time resolved spectroscopies concerned with transient vibrational phenomena and their application to fundamental scientific and engineering studies. The 167 registered participants, including 46 students, from 14 different countries, represented a wide range of scientific disciplines, and clearly indicated that the field continues to expand into new areas of physics, chemistry, biology, and materials science. Their enthusiasm and the originality and quality of the contributions presented produced a very successful and enjoyable conference.

Book A Novel Heme Thiolate Peroxygenase AaeAPO and Its Implications for C H Activation Chemistry

Download or read book A Novel Heme Thiolate Peroxygenase AaeAPO and Its Implications for C H Activation Chemistry written by Xiaoshi Wang and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-10-16 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this thesis, Xiaoshi Wang investigates the function and mechanism of a newly discovered heme-thiolate peroxygenase, AaeAPO. This enzyme class comes from Agrocybe aegerita and is used in the conversion of inert hydrocarbons to alcohols. Xiaoshi's work focuses on an extracellular P450 enzyme which is not limited in its stability and lack of solubility and therefore is relevant for widespread industrial use. The author demonstrates that the peroxygenase catalyzes a wide range of reactions. In some cases the author even describes very difficult transformations in molecules that are highly inert. Her detailed investigations provide a mechanistic framework for how the peroxygenase catalyzes such a large number of reactions. A major highlight of this thesis is the identification of key short-lived intermediates in the catalytic cycle of the peroxygenase, using rapid kinetic and spectroscopic methods, as well as the elucidation of the thermodynamic properties of these high-energy intermediates. This work adds new insight into an important class of enzymes.

Abstract: Nanosecond time-resolved resonance Raman (ns-TR3) spectroscopy was used in this thesis to study the photoreduction reactions and the photochemistry of chloro-substituted benzophenone (ClBP) triplets. The 3-chlorobenzophenone (3-ClBP), 4-chlorobenzophenone (4-ClBP) and 4,4′-dichlorobenzophenone (4,4′-diClBP) triplets exhibit similar properties to the parent BP triplet. In isopropyl alcohol (IPA), the hydrogen abstraction reactions were observed for the 3-ClBP, 4-ClBP and 4,4′-diDlBP triplets. The diphenylketyl (DPK) radicals produced from the hydrogen abstraction reactions were observed and the recombination of the DPK and dimethylketyl radicals at the para-position was observed to form a light absorption transient (LAT) species. In MeCN: H2O/1:1 aqueous solutions, these DPK radicals were also observed but with a slower formation rate and the LAT species was produced by reaction with OH radicals. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations were employed to help identify the intermediates seen in the TR3 spectra and to help provide information about the vibrational motions of the molecules examined. The 2-Cl-DPK radical was also observed in the TR3 spectra obtained in an IPA solvent. However, the yield of the 2-Cl-DPK radical and the hydrogen abstraction rate was observed to be significantly lower than that of the other ClBP examined here under the same experimental conditions. The results DFT calculations show that the 2-chloro substituent changes the geometry and the electron density of the molecular orbitals of the BP triplet so that the 2-chloro substituent reduces the hydrogen abstraction ability the triplet state, which is different the hypothesis put forward by some previous studies that an electron-withdrawing group should increase the photoreduction ability of BP derivatives. Norfloxacin (NF) and Enoxacin (EN) are representative derivatives of Fluoroquinolones (FQ). There are four forms of NF and EN and these different forms can coexist in aqueous solutions. The UV-vis absorption and resonance Raman (RR) spectra of NF and EN have been obtained in neat acetonitrile (MeCN), MeCN: HClO4-H2O/1:1 (pH?1), MeCN: H2O/1:1 (pH?7.5) and MeCN: NaOH-H2O/1:1 (pH?13) solutions. The species observed in the spectra are assigned by comparison of the experimental spectra to the DFT calculated spectra and the vibrational modes are also described from the results of the DFT calculations. The absorption spectra of NF and EN obtained in MeCN: H2O/1:1 solutions show that some other species coexist with the tautomeric forms in the neutral aqueous solution. The RR spectra of the tautomeric forms of NF and EN were obtained by subtraction of the RR spectra of the neutral and anionic forms from the RR spectra of NF and EN in neutral aqueous solutions. The results suggest that NF and EN exists in neutral, anionic and tautomeric forms in neutral aqueous solutions. The time dependant DFT calculation results suggest that the fluorine atom has little contribution to the lowest unoccupied molecular orbitals of the different forms of NF and EN.

Download or read book Cytochrome P450 written by Paul R. Ortiz de Montellano and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-03-13 with total page 912 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This authoritative Fourth Edition summarizes the advances of the past decade concerning the structure, mechanism, and biochemistry of cytochrome P450 enzymes, with sufficient coverage of earlier work to make each chapter a comprehensive review of the field. Thirteen chapters are divided into two detailed volumes, the first covering the fundamentals of cytochrome P450 biochemistry, as well as the microbial, plant, and insect systems, and the second exclusively focusing on mammalian systems. Volume 1 begins with an exploration of the biophysics and mechanistic enzymology of cytochrome P450 enzymes, with a discussion of the structures of P450 enzymes and their electron donor partners, the mechanisms of oxygen activation and substrate oxidation, and the approaches and nature of cytochrome P450 inhibition. Two more chapters discuss the nature and roles of cytochrome P450 enzymes in microbes, plants and insects, and an eighth chapter is a survey of the potential utility of P450 enzymes in biotechnology. The first chapter of Volume 2 examines the roles of P450 enzymes in mammals, mainly humans. Four further chapters then deal with the genetic and hormonal regulation of P450 enzymes and their specific roles in the processing of sterols and lipids. Cytochrome P450: Structure, Mechanism, and Biochemistry is a key resource for scientists, professors, and students interested in fields as diverse as biochemistry, chemistry, biophysics, molecular biology, pharmacology and toxicology.
