D-Threonine aldolase is an enzyme that catalyzes the cleavage of D-threonine into glycine and acetaldehyde. Its activity was found in several genera of bacteria such as Arthrobacter, Alcaligenes, Xanthomonas, and Pseudomonas, but not in yeasts or fungi. The enzyme was purified to homogeneity from one strain, Arthrobacter sp. DK-38. The enzyme appeared to consist of a single polypeptide chain with an apparent molecular mass of 51 kDa. This enzyme, as well as L-threonine aldolase, requires pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (pyridoxal-P) as a coenzyme. Unlike other pyridoxal-P enzymes, D-threonine aldolase also requires a divalent cation such as Co2+, Ni2+, Mn2+, or Mg2+ for its catalytic activity. The enzyme completely lost its activity in the absence of either pyridoxal-P or a divalent cation. A divalent cation was also essential for the thermal stability of the enzyme. The metal-free enzyme tends to become thermally unstable, resulting in the irreversible loss of its catalytic activity. The enzyme is strictly D-specific for the alpha-position, whereas it cannot distinguish between threo and erythro forms at the beta-position. Thus, D-threonine and D-allothreonine act as substrates of the enzyme, but their kinetic parameters are different; the Km and Vmax values are 3.81 mM and 38.8 micromol x min(-1) x mg(-1) toward D-threonine, and 14.0 mM and 102 micromol x min(-1) x mg(-1) toward D-allothreonine. respectively. The aldolase reaction is reversible, and the enzyme is therefore able to produce nearly equimolar amounts of D-threonine and D-allothreonine through C-C bond formation between glycine and acetaldehyde. The enzyme also acts, in the same manner, on several other D-beta-hydroxy-alpha-amino acids, including D-beta-phenylserine, D-beta-hydroxy-alpha-aminovaleric acid, D-beta-3,4-dihydroxyphenylserine, and D-beta-3,4-methylenedioxyphenylserine.

To investigate the relationship between antimicrobial activities and the molecular structures of nickel(II) complexes with thiosemicarbazone and semicarbazone ligands, nickel(II) complexes with ligands Hmtsc, Hatsc, Hasc and H2dmtsc, were prepared and characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR, 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopies, magnetic susceptibility measurements, UV-Vis absorption spectra, TG/DTA and single-crystal X-ray analysis. Their antimicrobial activities were evaluated by the MIC against four bacteria (B. subtilis, S. aureus, E. coli and P. aeruginosa), two yeasts (C. albicans and S. cerevisiae) and two molds (A. niger and P. citrinum). The 4-coordinate, diamagnetic nickel(II) complexes showed antimicrobial activities which were different from those of free ligands or the starting nickel(II) compounds; [Ni(mtsc)(OAc)] 1 showed selective and effective antimicrobial activities against two Gram-positive bacteria (B. subtilis and S. aureus) and modest activities against a yeast (S. cerevisiae), [Ni(mtsc)Cl] 3 exhibited moderate activities against a Gram-positive bacterium (S. aureus), and [Ni(atsc)(OAc)] 5 showed modest activities against two Gram-positive bacteria (B. subtilis and S. aureus). On the other hand, the 6-coordinate, paramagnetic nickel(II) complexes with two protonated or deprotonated ligands ([Ni(mtsc)2] 2, [Ni(atsc)(mtsc)] 4, [Ni(atsc)2] 6, [Ni(Hatsc)2](NO3)(2)7, [Ni(Hatsc)2]Cl(2)8 and [Ni(Hasc)2](OAc)(2)9) and the sterically crowded 4-coordinate, diamagnetic nickel(II) complex ([Ni(dmtsc)] 10) did not inhibit the growth of the test organisms. The structure-activity correlation in this series of nickel(II) complexes was discussed based on their ligand-replacement abilities.

Complexes of copper (II), zinc (II), nickel (II), cobalt (II) and iron (III) with 4-methyl-7-hydroxycoumarin sodium salt (Mendiaxon, Hymecromone) were synthesized by mixing of equimolar amounts of the respective metal nitrates and 4-methyl-7-hydroxycoumarin sodium salt in water. The complexes were characterized and identified by elemental analysis, conductivities, IR, 1H NMR spectroscopy and mass spectral data. DTA and TGA have been applied to study the compositions of the compounds. Thermal analysis of the complexes indicate the formation of compounds which correspond to the compositions Met(HL)2 x nH2O, where Met = Cu, Zn, Ni, Co; n = 2, 3 or 4 and Fe(HL)3 x 5H2O. The newly synthesized compounds were assayed for acute intraperitoneal and per oral toxicity, influence on blood clotting time and the most active complex was investigated for spasmolytic activity.

Twelve zinc(II) complexes with thiosemicarbazone and semicarbazone ligands were prepared and characterized by elemental analysis, thermogravimetric and differential thermal analysis (TG/DTA), FT-IR and 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy. Seven three-dimensional structures of zinc(II) complexes were determined by single-crystal X-ray analysis. Their antimicrobial activities were evaluated by MIC against four bacteria (B. subtilis, S. aureus, E. coli and P. aeruginosa), two yeasts (C. albicans and S. cerevisiae) and two molds (A. niger and P. citrinum). The 5- and 6-coordinate zinc(II) complexes with a tridentate thiosemicarbazone ligand (Hatsc), ([Zn(atsc)(OAc)](n) 1, [Zn(Hatsc)(2)](NO(3))(2).0.3H(2)O 2, [ZnCl(2)(Hatsc)] 3 and [Zn(SO(4))(Hatsc)(H(2)O)].H(2)O 4 [Hatsc=2-acetylpyridine(thiosemicarbazone)]), showed antimicrobial activities against test organisms, which were different from those of free ligands or the starting zinc(II) compounds. Especially, complex 2 showed effective activities against P. aeruginosa, C. albicans and moderate activities against S. cerevisiae and two molds. These facts are in contrast to the results that the 5- or 6-coordinate zinc(II) complexes with a tridentate 2-acetylpyridine-4N-morpholinethiosemicarbazone, ([Zn(mtsc)(2)].0.2EtOH 5, the previously reported catena-poly [Zn(mtsc)-mu-(OAc-O,O')](n) and [Zn(NO(3))(2)(Hmtsc)] [Hmtsc=2-acetylpyridine (4N-morpholyl thiosemicarbazone)]), showed no activities against the test microorganisms. The 5- and 6-coordinate zinc(II) complexes with a tridentate 2-acetylpyridinesemicarbazone, ([Zn(OAc)(2)(Hasc)] 6 and [Zn(Hasc)(2)](NO(3))(2) 7 [Hasc=2-acetylpyridine(semicarbazone)]), showed no antimicrobial activities against bacteria, yeasts and molds. Complex [ZnCl(2)(Hasc)] 8, which was isostructural to complex 3, showed modest activity against Gram-positive bacterium, B. subtilis. The 1:1 complexes of zinc(II) with pentadentate thiosemicarbazone ligands, ([Zn(dmtsc)](n) 9 and [Zn(datsc)](n) 10 [H(2)dmtsc=2,6-diacetylpyridine bis(4N-morpholyl thiosemicarbazone) and H(2)datsc=2,6-diacetylpyridine bis(thiosemicarbazone)]), did not inhibit the growth of the test organisms. On the contrary, 7-coordinate zinc(II) complexes with one pentadentate semicarbazone ligand and two water molecules, ([Zn(H(2)dasc)(H(2)O)(2)](OAc)(2).5.3H(2)O 11 and [Zn(H(2)dasc)(H(2)O)(2)](NO(3))(2).H(2)O 12 [H(2)dasc=2,6-diacetylpyridine bis(semicarbazone)]), showed modest to moderate activities against bacteria. Based on the X-ray structures, the structure-activity correlation for the antimicrobial activities was elucidated. The zinc(II) complexes with 4N-substituted ligands showed no antimicrobial activities. In contrast to the previously reported nickel(II) complexes, properties of the ligands such as the ability to form hydrogen bonding with a counter anion or hydrated water molecules or the less bulkiness of the 4N moiety would be a more important factor for antimicrobial activities than the coordination number of the metal ion for the zinc(II) complexes.

Nickel(II) complexes of reduced glutathione (GSH) of general composition Na[Ni(L)(X)]H(2)O, where H(2)L=GSH; X=NO(3)(-), SCN(-), CH(3)CO(2)(-), Cl(-) have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, infrared spectra, electronic spectra, magnetic susceptibility measurements, thermal and X-ray powder diffraction studies. Infrared spectra indicate deprotonation and coordination of cysteinyl sulphur and carboxylate oxygen of glycine residue with nickel ions. It indicates the presence of water molecule in all the complexes which has been supported by TG/DTA. The thermal behavior of complexes shows that water molecule is removed in first step-followed removal of anions and then decomposition of the ligand molecule in subsequent steps. General mechanisms describing the decomposition of the solid complexes are suggested. Kinetic and thermodynamic parameters were computed from the thermal decomposition data. The room temperature magnetic moment values for all the complexes lie in the range of 2.2-2.4BM, indicating departure from spin only values due to second order Zeeman effect. The electronic spectra indicate planar coordination geometry for all the complexes.

Simultaneous uptake of Ni2+, NH4+, and PO4(3-) by amorphous CaO-Al2O3-SiO2 (C-A-S) compounds was investigated using batch and column methods. Fifteen different C-A-S samples with systematically varied chemical compositions were prepared by coprecipitation from ethanol-water solutions containing Ca(NO3)2.4H2O, Al(NO3)3.9H2O, and Si(OC2H5)4, using NH4OH as the precipitating agent. The resulting precipitates were dried and heated at various temperatures to produce the C-A-S samples, which were then characterized by XRD, FTIR, solid state MAS NMR, DTA-TG, and N2 adsorption. All the C-A-S samples prepared at 600-900 degrees C were amorphous, apart from the CaO-rich samples. Simultaneous uptake of Ni2+, NH4+, and PO4(3-) was determined by a batch method using a solution with an initial concentration of 2 mM. In these experiments, the uptake abilities of the C-A-S samples for Ni2+ and PO4(3-) were high, but were relatively low for NH4+. The uptake abilities for Ni2+ and PO4(3-) increased but that for NH4+ decreased as the silica content in the C-A-S decreased, suggesting that similar uptake mechanisms (ion substitution and/or precipitation) are operating for Ni2+ and PO4(3-), but the uptake mechanism for NH4+ is different (physical adsorption). The column experiments indicate that the order of uptake ability of C-A-S for the three ions is NH4+ << PO4(3-) < Ni2+. Although the silica content of the C-A-S does not have the expected influence on the uptake of these three ions, for NH4+ it plays an important role in the formation of the amorphous phase and also in the suppression of Ca2+ and/or Al3+ release from the C-A-S during the uptake experiments. The optimum uptake properties of the C-A-S can thus be controlled by adjusting the chemical compositions and heating conditions under which the samples are prepared.

A method for the continuous monitoring of water vapour evolved during thermal decomposition reactions is developed based on the reversible adsorption of water on a bare piezoelectric crystal with nickel electrodes. Gaseous decomposition products formed in the furnace chamber of the thermoanalytical equipment are collected and transported to the detector cell by the carrier gas. A linear relationship exists between the decrease in vibrational frequency of the crystal and the concentration of water in the carrier gas up to 900 mug/l. H(2)O [1200 ppm (v/v)]. The signal curve of the piezoelectric water monitor can be recorded simultaneously along with the TG, DTG and DTA curves and used to identify the decomposition step(s) in which water was formed. CO, CO(2) and low molecular weight hydrocarbons do not interfere. Condensable organic crack products can be removed by a suitable pretrap.

Cobalt(II), nickel(II), copper(II), zinc(II) and hafnium(IV) complexes of furan-2-carbaldehyde 4-methoxy-N-anilinoacetohydrazone were synthesized and characterized by elemental and thermal (TG and DTA) analyses, IR, UV-vis and (1)H NMR spectra as well as magnetic moment and molar conductivity. Mononuclear complexes are obtained with 1:1 molar ratio except complexes 3 and 9 which are obtained with 1:2 molar ratios. The IR spectra of ligand and metal complexes reveal various modes of chelation. The ligand behaves as a neutral bidentate one and coordination occurs via the carbonyl oxygen atom and azomethine nitrogen atom. The ligand behaves also as a monobasic tridentate one and coordination occurs through the enolic oxygen atom, azomethine nitrogen atom and the oxygen atom of furan ring. Moreover, the ligand behaves as a neutral tridentate and coordination occurs via the carbonyl oxygen, azomethine nitrogen and furan oxygen atoms as well as a monobasic bidentate and coordination occurs via the enolic oxygen atom and azomethine nitrogen atom. The electronic spectra and magnetic moment measurements reveal that all complexes possess octahedral geometry except the copper complex 10 possesses a square planar geometry. The thermal studies showed the type of water molecules involved in metal complexes as well as the thermal decomposition of some metal complexes.
