  • The Air Oxidation of 4,6-Di (2-Phenyl-2-Propyl) Pyrogallol. Spectroscopic and Kinetic Studies of the Intermediates

ABRASH Department of Chemistry, Carlsberg Laboratory Gamle Carlsbergvej 10 - DK-2500 Copenhagen, Valby~ 1) Current address: Department of Chemistry, California State University at Northridge, Northridge, California 91324, USA Key words: 4,6-di (2-phenyl-2-propyl) pyrogallol, consecutive reactions, oxidation, oxygen, pH, quinone, semiquinone, spectra Two colored extinction bands, one with ~'max near 520 nm and the other near 770 nm, form and decay during air oxidations of 4,6-di(2-phenyl-2-propyl)pyrogallol in alkaline methanol. The 770 nm band appears to be due to the semiquinone monoanion while the extinction near 500 nm is thought to be due to both the semiquinone and 3-hydroxy-o-quinone. Although the rates of formation and decay of the two bands are indistinguishable in the presence of excess dissolved oxygen, the 770 nm band disappears slightly before the 500 nm extinction when the pyrogallol reactant is initially in excess of the dissolved oxygen. Except at high methoxide concentrations, the kinetics indicate a system of two consecutive reactions with pseudo first-order rate constants k~ and k 2. The pH' dependence of k~ indicates that the neutral pyrogallol, its monoanion and dianion all react, the rate increasing with the negative charge of the species. The k2/k~ ratio is constant at 5 from pH' 11 to 16. Extinction coefficients at both wavelengths increase with pH'. The 770 nm extinction disappears immediately after acidification while the 500 nm extinction decays at a rate consistent with oxidation.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image^pn the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.

Gumbart2,3,4, 1School of Materials Science and Engineering, 2School of Chemistry and Biochemistry, 3Petit Institute for Bioengineering and Biosciences, and 4School of Physics, Georgia Institute of Technology, Atlanta, GA 30332 † These authors contributed equally to this work. ∗ To whom correspondence should be addressed; Email: [email protected]; Phone: 404-385-0797 1 Abstract Tyrosine-based radical transfer plays an important role in photosynthesis, respiration, and DNA synthesis. Radical transfer can occur either by electron transfer (ET) or proton coupled electron transfer (PCET), depending on the pH. Reversible conformational changes in the surrounding protein matrix may control reactivity of radical intermediates. De novo designed Peptide A is a synthetic 18 amino-acid β-hairpin, which contains a single tyrosine (Y5) and carries out a kinetically significant PCET reaction between Y5 and a cross-strand histidine (H14). In Peptide A, amide II’ (CN) changes are observed in the UV resonance Raman (UVRR) spectrum, associated with tyrosine ET and PCET; these bands were attributed previously to a reversible change in secondary structure. Here, we use molecular dynamics simulations to define this conformational change in Peptide A and its H14-to-cyclohexylalanine variant, Peptide C. Three different Y5 charge states, tyrosine (YH), tyrosinate (Y–), and neutral tyrosyl radical (Y•), are considered. The simulations show that Peptide A-YH and A-Y– retain secondary structure and noncovalent interactions, whereas A-Y• is unstable.

  • Natural Sulfide Minerals As Electrode Materials for Electrochemical Analysis in Dipolar Aprotic Solvents
    Int. J. Electrochem. Sci., 13 (2018) 11113 – 11135, doi: 10.20964/2018.11.74 International Journal of ELECTROCHEMICAL SCIENCE www.electrochemsci.org Review Natural Sulfide Minerals as Electrode Materials for Electrochemical Analysis in Dipolar Aprotic Solvents Zorka Stanić University of Kragujevac, Faculty of Science, Department of Chemistry, R. Domanović 12, P.O. Box 60, 34000 Kragujevac, Serbia E-mail: [email protected], [email protected] Received: 20 August 2018 / Accepted: 19 September 2018 / Published: 1 October 2018 Dipolar aprotic solvents are compounds with the relative permittivity higher than 15 and a dipole moment greater than 2 D. Solvents of this type are applied in the field of kinetic, catalytic and electrochemical studies. Many organic molecules with high molecular weight are readily dissolved in dipolar aprotic solvents. These solvents have relatively high pKS and wide-area working potential which allows the determination of a large number of compounds in them. This review was written to provide the insight of electrochemistry in non-aqueous solutions, primarily based on the characterization and application of some solid-state sensors in a non-aqueous environment. Firstly, it highlights the results obtained over many years of investigation in our laboratory with the aim to contribute to the development of pure and applied chemistry in non-aqueous solutions. The review is divided into two main parts. The first part contains a discussion of solvent properties which further basically determine their application in electrochemistry. Second part mainly deals with the characteristics and use of the natural sulfide minerals (pyrite, chalcopyrite, and arsenopyrite) as electrochemical sensors in non-aqueous solutions for different purposes.
