TL;DR: In this paper, the structure of mononuclear Au(III) complexes of the peptides H-His-Met-OH (D) and H-Gly-Gli-Met Met-OH(T) and their N-protected forms Ac-D and Ac-T were structurally characterized by means of IR, MS and NMR.
Abstract: Mononuclear Au(III) complexes of the peptides H-His-Met-OH (D) and H-Gly-Gly-Met-OH (T) and their N-protected forms Ac-His-Met-OH (Ac-D) and Ac-Gly-Gly-Met-OH (Ac-T) were structurally characterized by means of IR, MS and NMR. In the complexes with dipeptides [AuLCl2]Cl (L = D or Ac-D), Au(III) is coordinated through S and imidazole N atoms from methionine and histidine fragments of the ligands forming macrochelate rings at mol ratio Au : L = 1 : 1. Additionally, Au(III) is coordinated by two terminal chloride ions in a square-planar arrangement. In complexes with the tripeptides [AuL′Cl] (L′ = T or Ac-T), however, the metal ion is coordinated in a tridentate fashion, through S and two N atoms, also at mol ratio M : L = 1 : 1. The fourth position of Au(III) is occupied by a Cl− ligand.

TL;DR: In this article, the pulsed laser photolysis (excimer laser, XeCl; 308 nm) of the PtCl 6 2−creatinine-methanol system was studied.
Abstract: The pulsed laser photolysis (excimer laser, XeCl; 308 nm) of the PtCl 6 2− —creatinine—methanol system was studied. The formation of an intermediate Pt III species (PtCl 5 2− cr, where cr = creatinine) was demonstrated and its decay kinetics were examined. Some kinetic and thermodynamic data of the photoinduced reaction were determined. The photolysis of the same system using stationary irradiation was also investigated allowing the end product of the reaction to be determined.
