A series of surface-active ionic liquids based on the 1-dodecyl-3-methylimidazolium cation and different anions was synthesized and applied for micellar catalysis of nucleophilic substitutions.

The reactivity of 4-nitrophenyl acetate has been examined in solutions of mono-, di-, and tri-hydroxy- cholanates and their taurine and glycine conjugates. The effect of cholate solutions on the stability of acetylsalicylic acid, phenyl salicylate and benzaldehyde diethyl acetal has also been determined. At the bile salt concentrations and in the pH range of the duodenum, bile salts do not significantly influence the stability of these compounds.

The molecular weights of horse hemoglobin, horse globin, and performic acid oxidized horse globin were determined by osmotic pressure, by an approach to equilibrium sedimentation, and by light scattering (except hemoglobin) at pH 1.5 to 2.5 in 0.05 M NaCl. Sedimentation coefficients were determined for these materials over the same pH range and electrophoretic analyses were made from pH 1.5 to 4.0. The results show that in dilute salt solutions below pH 2.5 horse hemoglobin dissociates to four subunits all approximately equal in mass but at least two of which differ electrokinetically and therefore in composition. The subunits are probably held together in the native hemoglobin molecule only by non-covalent bonds.

A facile and inexpensive environmental-friendly method was developed to prepare a biomimetic superhydrophobic CuO surface with hierarchical micro- and nanostructures by the combination of a simple solid state reaction and a convenient dipping-coating method. The biomimetic CuO surface showed superhydrophobicity even for some corrosive liquids including salt solutions and acidic and basic solutions at a wide pH range from 2 to 13. Moreover, the superhydrophobic CuO surface showed high stability in ambient environment even exposed to ultraviolet light for 10 h.

The hydrolysis of 4-nitro-2-(trifluoroacetylamino)benzoic acid was studied over the pH range 0-13. In strongly acidic solution (pH 0-3), intramolecular general acid catalysis was observed. In alkaline solution, rate determining protonation of the nitrogen atom of the intermediate complex formed by attack of hydroxide ion on the substrate, was observed. The alkaline hydrolysis was subject to significant micellar catalysis and this was accompanied by a change of mechanism to solvent assisted C-N bond breaking. At intermediate pH (4-8), the reaction was subject to significant buffer catalysis, and deprotonation of the intermediate formed by the attack of water on the substrate was proposed.

Feasibility of isomorphous substitution in electron diffraction is supported by a calculation of the mean alteration of the electron-diffraction structure factors for hemoglobin crystals caused by substituting two mercury atoms per molecule, following Green, Ingram & Perutz, but with allowance for the proportionality of f to Z3/4 for electron diffraction. This yields a mean net change in F of 12.5%, as contrasted with 22.8% for x-ray diffraction.Use of the hydration chamber in electron diffraction opens prospects for examining many proteins that yield only very thin crystals not suitable for x-ray diffraction. Examination in the wet state avoids treatments that could cause translocation of the heavy-atom labels or distortion of the crystal. Combined with low-fluence techniques, it enables study of the protein in a state as close to native as possible.We have undertaken a study of crystals of rat hemoglobin by electron diffraction in the wet state. Rat hemoglobin offers a certain advantage for hydration-chamber work over other hemoglobins in that it can be crystallized from distilled water instead of salt solutions.

Although sections of frozen salt solutions have been used as standards for x-ray microanalysis, such solutions are less useful when analysed in the bulk form. They are poor thermal and electrical conductors and severe phase separation occurs during the cooling process. Following a suggestion by Whitecross et al we have made up a series of salt solutions containing a small amount of graphite to improve the sample conductivity. In addition, we have incorporated a polymer to ensure the formation of microcrystalline ice and a consequent homogenity of salt dispersion within the frozen matrix. The mixtures have been used to standardize the analytical procedures applied to frozen hydrated bulk specimens based on the peak/background analytical method and to measure the absolute concentration of elements in developing roots.
