Ruthenium byproducts from ring-closing metathesis reactions can be removed by refluxing the crude reaction mixture with resin-bound triphenylphosphine oxide (TPPO) in toluene or by stirring with dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and silica gel at room temperature. Residual levels of ruthenium can be achieved that are as low as 0.04 microg per 5 mg of product when a combination of TPPO, DMSO, and silica gel is used. The polymer-bound TPPO retained its efficiency after being recycled six times.

The binding of viable Escherichia coli cells to an immobilized ligand of a surface receptor for maltodextrins has recently been demonstrated (T. Ferenci and K. S. Lee, J. Mol. Biol. 160:431-444, 1982). The interaction of bacteria and ligand immobilized in a chromatographic column was investigated over a wide range of applied cell densities, temperatures, eluant pH values, osmotic concentrations, and flow rates. Over 95% retention of bacteria applied to starch-Sepharose was found at cell densities up to 10 per ml of matrix, between pH 5.5 and 8.0, between 8 and 55 degrees C, in the presence of 0 to 0.5 M NaCl, and at elution flow rates up to 37 column volumes per h. The catalytic capability and stability of affinity-immobilized cells was demonstrated with the cytoplasmic beta-galactosidase activity of starch-bound cells. Intact immobilized bacteria exhibited slowly increasing beta-galactosidase activity over several days with a plateau after 6 days. Bacteria made permeable by treatment with toluene were also bound to starch-Sepharose but showed maximum beta-galactosidase activity within 1 day and exhibited no loss of enzyme activity in 8 days of continuous elution at ambient temperatures.

The curvefit and vibrational assignment of toluene-d8 are presented as well as previous assignments. A total of 172 peaks are required to fit the experimental imaginary molar polarizability spectrum with CDHO bands. The R2-value is 0.9998 which indicates a near perfect fit. The area under the fitted spectrum is 0.3% larger than the area under the experimental spectrum. The integrated intensities of toluene-d8 are compared with those of toluene, benzene and several halogen substituted benzenes using the F-sum rule.

The stabilized phosphoranes, obtained from the three-component reaction between dialkyl acetylenedicarboxylates and urea or N-methylurea in the presence of triphenylphosphine, undergo a smooth reaction in boiling toluene to produce iminophosphoranes in good yields. Under the same reaction conditions, the phosphorane obtained from N-methylurea and dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate yields methyl 1-methyl-2,6-dioxo-1,2,3,6-tetrahydro-pyrimidine-4-carboxylate.

Molecular modeling was used to analyze the phenomena involved in the sorption of hydrocarbons by the Pt/Al2O3 reforming catalyst. The interactions between the atoms of the catalyst structure and the molecules of the model reforming compounds were described in terms of the universal forcefield. Making use of the GCMC algorithms, the adsorption isotherms for the reagents in the catalytic system and the temperature dependence of the Henry constant were determined. The research has produced the following major findings: the amount of the hydrocarbon molecules adsorbed rises with increasing pressure and decreasing temperature, and the adsorption isotherm for toluene has a characteristic plot as compared to the isotherms of the other hydrocarbons studied. Mass cloud analysis has revealed a favorable effect of platinum on adsorption in the catalyst model.

The absorption spectra of the electron donor-acceptor complexes of [60]fullerene with five different aromatic hydrocarbon (AH) molecules containing flexible phenyl substituents have been investigated in toluene medium. An absorption band due to charge transfer (CT) transition is observed in each case in the visible region. The experimental CT transition energies are well correlated with the vertical ionization potentials of the AHs studied (through Mulliken's equation) from which we extract degrees of charge transfer, oscillator and transition dipole strengths of the CT complexes. The degrees of CT in the ground state of the complexes have been found to be very low (0.49-0.55%). The formation constants (K) for the complexes of [60]fullerene with the aromatic hydrocarbons have been determined by UV-vis spectroscopy. Both K values and PM3 calculations on [60]fullerene/AH complexes reveal that nature of substitution in the donor moiety as well as steric compatibility with the acceptor molecule govern the process of EDA complex formation.

We recently reported a novel class of compounds, represented by 3-cyano-N-(1,3-diphenyl-1H-pyrazol-5-yl)benzamide (CD-PPB), that act as positive allosteric modulators (potentiators) of metabotropic glutamate receptor (mGluR) subtype 5. Studies of CDPPB analogs revealed that some compounds in this series serve also as positive allosteric modulators of mGluR1. Although CDPPB is selective for mGluR5 relative to other mGluR subtypes, several CDPPB analogs also showed 2.5-fold potentiation of glutamate-induced calcium transients in cells expressing mGluR1 at 10 muM, with 4-nitro-N-(1,4-diphenyl-1H-pyrazol-5-yl)benzamide (VU-71) being selective for mGluR1. In previous studies, we found that two structural classes of mGluR5-selective allosteric potentiators, including CDPPB, share a common binding site with the allosteric mGluR5 antagonist 2-methyl-6-(phenylethynyl)pyridine. Negative allosteric modulators of mGluR1, regardless of structural class, have been reported to bind to a common allosteric antagonist site on this receptor. However, neither the novel CDPPB analogs nor previously identified allosteric mGluR1 potentiators [e.g., (S)-2-(4-fluorophenyl)-1-(toluene-4-sulfonyl)pyrrolidine (Ro 67-7476), ethyl diphenylacetylcarbamate (Ro 01-6128), and butyl (9H-xanthene-9-carbonyl)carbamate (Ro 67-4853)] displaced the binding of [(3)H]1-(3,4-dihydro-2H-pyrano[2,3-b]quinolin-7-yl)-2-phenyl-1-ethanone (R214127), a high-affinity radioligand for the allosteric antagonist site on mGluR1 at concentrations several orders of magnitude higher than those required to induce allosteric potentiation of mGluR1 responses. These data suggest that allosteric potentiators of mGluR1 act at a site that is distinct from that of allosteric antagonists of mGluR1. Site-directed mutagenesis revealed that valine at position 757 in transmembrane V of mGluR1a is crucial for the activity of multiple classes of allosteric mGluR1 potentiators.

Experimental partition coefficients were determined for a series of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) (acetonitrile, n-butylamine, n-octane tetrachloroethene, and toluene) for the interaction with 2,3,9,10,16,17,23,24-octakis(octyloxy)-phthalocyaninato complexes, PcM(OR)(8), with varying central metal atoms [M=H(2) (metal-free), Ni, Pd, Cu, Zn]. Large partition coefficients for toluene were observed in the case of the nickel and palladium phthalocyanines, whereas for the corresponding zinc-containing compound, interaction with n-butylamine resulted in a high value for the partition coefficient. Interaction energies for model coordination complexes were obtained at the ab initio LMP2/ LACVP* level of theory. The interaction of various small volatiles with the various PcM(OR)(8) compounds was studied using the PM3 semiempirical Hamiltonian. Large values for interaction energies correspond to particularly strong partition coefficients, suggesting that coordination of the volatiles to the central metal dominates over the often discussed pi-system stacking at the PcM(OR)(8)'s.

The toxicity data of 28 nitroaromatic compounds (nitrobenzenes and, for comparison, benzene and toluene) related to a 50% lethal dose concentration for rats (LD50) were used to develop quantitative structure-activity relationships (QSARs).A genetic algorithm and multiple regression analysis were applied to select the descriptors and to generate the correlation models. The obtained equations consist of one to three descriptors. A number of molecular descriptors was obtained from HF/6-31G(d) and DFT (B3LYP/6-311+G(d, p)) level calculations. The calculated molecular geometry and electronic properties were evaluated by comparison with the available experimental data (where applicable). All parameters obtained at the B3LYP/6-311+G(d, p) level and the topological descriptors derived from this geometry were found to be reliable, except for dipole moment, due to the large uncertainty of its estimation. Satisfactory relationships were observed for the one-parameter structure-toxicity models between topological (X5Av, Ms) and quantum-chemical (ELUMO) descriptors. For better predictability two- and three-parameter QSAR analyses were performed. These analyses resulted in much better equations with correlation coefficient values r = 0.872-0.924. These models have been obtained with a set of topological, fragment and quantum-chemical descriptors (Ms, PCR, PCD, BELe1, C-026 and ELUMO). The toxicity of nitroaromatic compounds appears to be governed by a number of factors, such as the number of nitrogroups, the electrotopological state, the presence of certain fragments and the electrophilicity/reactivity parameter (ELUMO). Nitrobenzenes exhibited electrophilic reactivity (as was shown by correlation of the toxicity with the energy of the lowest unoccupied orbital, ELUMO). The toxicity LD50 parameter for rats has been utilized for the first time for QSAR analysis of nitrobenzenes. The predictive ability of the models is determined by a cross-validation "leave-one-out" method.

Extensive 1H NMR spectrometric studies have been done to gain information on the nature of molecular interactions of the supramolecular complexes of [60]fullerene with a series of meso-tetraphenylporphyrins, namely, meso-5,10,15,20-tetraphenylporphyrin (1), meso-5,10,15,20-tetra-2-bromophenyl-porphyrin (2) and meso-5,10,15,20-tetra-2-chlorophenyl-porphyrin (3) in toluene medium. [60]Fullerene has been shown to form 1:1 adducts with the above series of meso-tetraphenylporphyrins. Formation constants (K) for all the complexes have been determined from the systematic variation of the NMR chemical shifts of beta proton of the porphyrin in presence of [60]fullerene. It has been observed that 3 acts as a better donor in forming supramolecular complex with [60]fullerene.
