Time-resolved resonance Raman and absorption spectra have revealed that the photoinduced intramolecular hydrogen transfer reaction of ortho nitrobenzyl compounds is initiated by the abstraction of methylene hydrogen by the ortho nitro group to generate the ortho aci-nitro acid isomer. In polar solvents the ortho aci-nitro acid is dissociated into the aci-nitro anion and a proton, and the proton is captured by other hydrogen accepting sites, such as 2-pyridyl, 4-pyridyl and 4-nitro groups to generate the ortho N—H quinoid, para N—H quinoid and para aci-nitro acid isomers, respectively. For 2-nitroethylbenzene and 2- and 4-(2′-nitrobenzyl)pyridines the structure of the aci-nitro anion is very similar to that of their respective ortho aci-nitro acid, while for 2,4-dinitroethylbenzene the structure of the aci-nitro anion quite resembles that of the para aci-nitro acid.

Although it is recognized that niacin (pyridine-3-carboxylic acid), incorporated as the amide in nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) or in nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP), is a cofactor in hydrogen transfer in numerous enzyme reactions in all organisms studied, virtually no information is available on the effect of this vitamin on a cell at the submicroscopic level. Since mitochondria act as sites for many hydrogen transfer processes, the possible response of mitochondria to niacin treatment is, therefore, of critical interest.Onion bulbs were placed on vials filled with double distilled water in the dark at 25°C. After two days the bulbs and newly developed root system were transferred to vials containing 0.1% niacin. Root tips were collected at ¼, ½, 1, 2, 4, and 8 hr. intervals after treatment. The tissues were fixed in glutaraldehyde-OsO4 as well as in 2% KMnO4 according to standard procedures. In both cases, the tissues were dehydrated in an acetone series and embedded in Reynolds' lead citrate for 3-10 minutes.

When a solution of microtubule protein is changed from non-polymerising to polymerising conditions (e.g. by temperature jump or mixing with GTP) there is a series of structural transitions preceding microtubule growth. These have been detected by time-resolved X-ray scattering using synchrotron radiation, and they may be classified into pre-nucleation and nucleation events. X-ray patterns are good indicators for the average behavior of the particles in solution, but they are difficult to interpret unless additional information on their structure is available. We therefore studied the assembly process by electron microscopy under conditions approaching those of the X-ray experiment. There are two difficulties in the EM approach: One is that the particles important for assembly are usually small and not very regular and therefore tend to be overlooked. Secondly EM specimens require low concentrations which favor disassembly of the particles one wants to observe since there is a dynamic equilibrium between polymers and subunits.
