X-Ray and EPR study on copper (II) complexes with an enamine ligand

Abstract: The enamine (HEAID) obtained from aniline and 2-acetyl-1,3-indandione (2AID) behaves as a bidentate ligand in coordination with copper (II) ion. Two types of crystals, apparently different in shape, were isolated and studied by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The X-ray data for the brown rhombic crystals of compound 1 shows a mononuclear complex of Cu(II) coordinated with two EAID-anions, Cu(EAID)2. The X-ray data for the green crystals of compound 2 shows a dinuclear Cu(II) complex with two OH− groups acting as bridging ligands, [Cu2(μ-OH)2(EAID)2]. In both cases the ligand coordinates after deprotonation of the amine group.

Vipoxin specificity studied by gas chromatographic determination of enzymatic reaction products. Influence of Ca2+, Mg2+ and Sr2+

Abstract: Gas chromatographic procedure with mass spectrometric detection was applied to quantitatively determine the enzymatic specificity and activity of vipoxin (a neurotoxin from the Vipera ammodytes meridionalis venom) as well as the influence of Ca2+, Mg2+ and Sr2+ on these properties.
