Cyclometallation and Hydrogen/Deuterium Exchange Reactions of an Arylphosphine Ligand upon Coordination to {Ir(C5Me5)}
The cyclometallated compounds [(C5Me5)Ir(X){PMe(2,6-CH2(Me)C6H3)(2,6-Me2C6H3)}] (X=Cl, H, Me) have been synthesized in high yields and their potential for C-H activation demonstrated. Subsequent functionalization of these species has provided a series of complexes...
An O-Acetylserine(thiol)lyase Homolg with L-Cysteine Desulfhydrase Activity Regulates Cysteine Homeostasis in Arabidopsis
Cysteine (Cys) occupies a central position in plant metabolism due to its biochemical functions. Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) cells contain different O-acetylserine(thiol)lyase (OASTL) enzymes that catalyze the biosynthesis of Cys. Because they are localized in...
Ionic liquid templated TiO2 nanoparticles as a support in gold environmental catalysis
This work presents the synthesis of a nanostructured titania support and its subsequent utilization for the gold particles deposition and application in the reaction of the CO oxidation. A functionalized ionic liquid has been used as a templating agent for the...
