This work investigated the hypothesis that other residues in albumin could be modified by organophosphorus agents (OP). Human plasma was aggressively treated with FP-biotin; plasma proteins were separated into high and low abundant portions using a proteome partitioning antibody kit, and the proteins were digested with trypsin. The FP-biotinylated tryptic peptides were isolated by binding to monomeric avidin beads. The major sites of covalent attachment identified by mass spectrometry were Y138, Y148, Y401, Y411, Y452, S232, and S287 of human albumin. Prolonged treatment of pure human albumin with chlorpyrifos oxon labeled Y138, Y150, Y161, Y401, Y411, and Y452.

  • A Comparative Study of the Formation of Aromatics In
    A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF THE FORMATION OF AROMATICS IN RICH METHANE FLAMES DOPED BY UNSATURATED COMPOUNDS H.A. GUENICHE, J. BIET, P.A. GLAUDE, R. FOURNET, F. BATTIN-LECLERC* Département de Chimie-Physique des Réactions, Nancy Université, CNRS, 1 rue Grandville, BP 20451, 54001 NANCY Cedex, France * E-mail : [email protected] ; Tel.: 33 3 83 17 51 25 , Fax : 33 3 83 37 81 20 ABSTRACT For a better modeling of the importance of the different channels leading to the first aromatic ring, we have compared the structures of laminar rich premixed methane flames doped with several unsaturated hydrocarbons: allene and propyne, because they are precursors of propargyl radicals which are well known as having an important role in forming benzene, 1,3-butadiene to put in evidence a possible production of benzene due to reactions of C4 compounds, and, finally, cyclopentene which is a source of cyclopentadienylmethylene radicals which in turn are expected to easily isomerizes to give benzene. These flames have been stabilized on a burner at a pressure of 6.7 kPa (50 Torr) using argon as dilutant, for equivalence ratios (φ) from 1.55 to 1.79. A unique mechanism, including the formation and decomposition of benzene and toluene, has been used to model the oxidation of allene, propyne, 1,3-butadiene and cyclopentene. The main reaction pathways of aromatics formation have been derived from reaction rate and sensitivity analyses and have been compared for the three types of additives. These combined analyses and comparisons can only been performed when a unique mechanism is available for all the studied additives.

  • High Purity/Recovery Separation of Propylene from Propyne Using Anion Pillared Metal-Organic Framework: Application of Vacuum Swing Adsorption (VSA)
    energies Article High Purity/Recovery Separation of Propylene from Propyne Using Anion Pillared Metal-Organic Framework: Application of Vacuum Swing Adsorption (VSA) Majeda Khraisheh 1, Fares AlMomani 1,* and Gavin Walker 2 1 Department of Chemical Engineering, College of Engineering, Qatar University, Doha P.O. Box 2713, Qatar; [email protected] 2 Department of Chemical Sciences, SSPC, Bernal Institute, University of Limerick, V94 T9PX Limerick, Ireland; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +974-4403-4140 Abstract: Propylene is one of the world’s most important basic olefin raw material used in the produc- tion of a vast array of polymers and other chemicals. The need for high purity grade of propylene is essential and traditionally achieved by the very energy-intensive cryogenic separation. In this study, 2− a pillared inorganic anion SIF6 was used as a highly selective C3H4 due to the square grid pyrazine- based structure. Single gas adsorption revealed a very high C3H4 uptake value (3.32, 3.12, 2.97 and 2.43 mmol·g−1 at 300, 320, 340 and 360 K, respectively). The values for propylene for the same tempera- tures were 2.73, 2.64, 2.31 and 1.84 mmol·g−1, respectively. Experimental results were obtained for the two gases fitted using Langmuir and Toth models. The former had a varied degree of representation of the system with a better presentation of the adsorption of the propylene compared to the propyne system. The Toth model regression offered a better fit of the experimental data over the entire range of pressures.

  • Identification of a Simplest Hypervalent Hydrogen Fluoride
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Identification of a Simplest Hypervalent Hydrogen Fluoride Anion in Solid Argon Received: 19 December 2016 Meng-Chen Liu1, Hui-Fen Chen2, Chih-Hao Chin1, Tzu-Ping Huang1, Yu-Jung Chen3 & Yu-Jong Accepted: 18 April 2017 Wu1,4 Published: xx xx xxxx Hypervalent molecules are one of the exceptions to the octet rule. Bonding in most hypervalent molecules is well rationalized by the Rundle–Pimentel model (three-center four-electron bond), and high ionic bonding between the ligands and the central atom is essential for stabilizing hypervalent molecules. Here, we produced one of the simplest hypervalent anions, HF−, which is known to deviate from the Rundle–Pimentel model, and identified its ro-vibrational features. High-levelab inito calculations reveal that its bond dissociation energy is comparable to that of dihalides, as supported by secondary photolysis experiments with irradiation at various wavelengths. The charge distribution analysis suggested that the F atom of HF− is negative and hypervalent and the bonding is more covalent than ionic. The octet rule indicates that atoms of the main group elements tend to gain or lose electrons in order to have eight electrons in their valence shells1, 2, similar to the electronic configuration of the noble gases. Therefore, to attain this fully filled electronic configuration, atoms combine to form molecules by sharing their valence electrons to form chemical bonds. This rule is especially applicable to the period 2 and 3 elements. Most molecules are formed by following this rule and the bonding structure of molecules can be easily recognized by using Lewis electron dot diagrams.

  • Rich Methane Premixed Laminar Flames Doped with Light Unsaturated
    Combustion and Flame 146 (2006) 620–634 www.elsevier.com/locate/combustflame Rich methane premixed laminar flames doped with light unsaturated hydrocarbons I. Allene and propyne H.A. Gueniche, P.A. Glaude, G. Dayma, R. Fournet, F. Battin-Leclerc ∗ Département de Chimie-Physique des Réactions, Nancy University, CNRS, ENSIC, 1 rue Grandville, BP 20451, 54001 Nancy Cedex, France Received 9 February 2006; received in revised form 16 June 2006; accepted 3 July 2006 Available online 4 August 2006 Abstract The structure of three laminar premixed rich flames has been investigated: a pure methane flame and two methane flames doped by allene and propyne, respectively. The gases of the three flames contain 20.9% (mo- lar) of methane and 33.4% of oxygen, corresponding to an equivalence ratio of 1.25 for the pure methane flame. In both doped flames, 2.49% of C3H4 was added, corresponding to a ratio C3H4/CH4 of 12% and an equivalence ra- tio of 1.55. The three flames have been stabilized on a burner at a pressure of 6.7 kPa using argon as dilutant, with a gas velocity at the burner of 36 cm/s at 333 K. The concentration profiles of stable species were measured by gas chromatography after sampling with a quartz microprobe. Quantified species included carbon monoxide and diox- ide, methane, oxygen, hydrogen, ethane, ethylene, acetylene, propyne, allene, propene, propane, 1,2-butadiene, 1,3-butadiene, 1-butene, isobutene, 1-butyne, vinylacetylene, and benzene. The temperature was measured using a PtRh (6%)–PtRh (30%) thermocouple settled inside the enclosure and ranged from 700 K close to the burner up to 1850 K.
