Matrix porin, the ompF gene product of E. coli, has been the object of a electron crystallographic study of its pore geometry in an attempt to understand its function as a membrane molecular sieve. Three polymorphic forms have been found for two-dimensional crystals reconstituted in phospholipid, two hexagonal forms with different lipid content and an orthorhombic form coexisting with and similar to the hexagonal form found after lipid loss. In projection these have been shown to retain the same three-fold pore triplet geometry and analyses of three-dimensional data reveal that the small hexagonal and orthorhombic polymorphs have similar structure as well as unit cell spacings.

The crystal structure of the title compound has been determined. The compound crystallized in the triclinic space group P -1, Z = 2, V = 1839 .42( 18) A3 and unit cell parameters a= 11. 0460( 6) A, b = 13 .3180(7) A, c=13. 7321 (8) A, a = 80.659(3 )0, b = 69 .800(3 )0 and g = 77 .007 (2)0 with one disordered dimethylsulfoxide solvent molecule with the sulfur and oxygen atoms are distributed over two sites; S101/S102 [site occupancy factors: 0.6035/0.3965] and 0130/0131 [site occupancy factor 0.3965/0.6035]. The C22-S2 l and C 19-S20 bond distances of 1. 779(7) A and 1. 788(8) A indicate that both of the molecules are connected by the disulfide bond [S20-S21 2.055(2) A] in its thiol form. The crystal structure reveals that both of the 5-bromoisatin moieties are trans with respect to the [S21-S20 and CI 9-Nl 8] and [S20-S21 and C22-N23] bonds whereas the benzyl group from the dithiocarbazate are in the cis configuration with respect to [S21-S20 and C19-S44] and [S20-S21 and C22-S36] bonds. The crystal structure is further stabilized by intermolecular hydrogen bonds of N9-H35···O16 formed between the two molecules and N28-H281 ···O130, N28-H281 ···O131 and C4 l-H4 l l ···O 131 with the solvent molecule.

Three new, substituted, nido carboranes, 7,8-Ph2-10-(SMe2)-7,8-nido-C2B9H10 (1a), 7,8-Ph2-10- (SMeEt)-7,8-nido-C2B9H10 (1b) and 7,8-Ph2-10-(SEt2)-7,8-nido-C2B9H10 (1c) have been synthesised and characterised, including a crystallographic study of the first. Deprotonation of 1a followed by treatment with (MeCN)2(CO)2MoBr(η-C3H5) at 0 °C affords the non-icosahedral 1,2-Ph2-4-(SMe2)-5-(η-C3H5)-5,5-(CO)2-5,1,2-closo-MoC2B9H8 (2a), which on subsequent warming transforms into icosahedral 2,8-Ph2-5-(SMe2)-1-(η-C3H5)-1,1-(CO)2-1,2,8-closo- MoC2B9H8 (3a). It is argued that under the conditions of these rearrangements the B-S bond is likely to remain intact, and consequently that the identity of the SMe2-labelled boron atom in 3a affords useful experimental information on the course of the isomerisation.

Crystal structure of hexylammonium anthracene-9-carboxylate was investigated. The salt was arranged by a one-dimensional hydrogen bond network to form a columnar structure in the crystalline state. This columnar structure should be the model of fibrous assemblies in the organogels of anthracene-9-carboxylate alkylammonium salts having a long alkyl chain.

Prussian blue analogs (PBAs) are well-known artificial enzymes with peroxidase (PO)-like activity. PBAs have a high potential for applications in scientific investigations, industry, ecology and medicine. Being stable and both catalytically and electrochemically active, PBAs are promising in the construction of biosensors and biofuel cells. The “green” synthesis of PO-like PBAs using oxido-reductase flavocytochrome b2 is described in this study. When immobilized on graphite electrodes (GEs), the obtained green-synthesized PBAs or hexacyanoferrates (gHCFs) of transition and noble metals produced amperometric signals in response to H2O2. HCFs of copper, iron, palladium and other metals were synthesized and characterized by structure, size, catalytic properties and electro-mediator activities. The gCuHCF, as the most effective PO mimetic with a flower-like micro/nano superstructure, was used as an H2O2-sensitive platform for the development of a glucose oxidase (GO)-based biosensor. The GO/gCuHCF/GE biosensor exhibited high sensitivity (710 A M−1m−2), a broad linear range and good selectivity when tested on real samples of fruit juices. We propose that the gCuHCF and other gHCFs synthesized via enzymes may be used as artificial POs in amperometric oxidase-based (bio)sensors.
