In continuation of our studies of alkali metal ion catalysis and inhibition at carbon, phosphorus, and sulfur centers, the role of alkali metal ions in nucleophilic displacement reactions of p-nitrophenyl phenylphosphonate (PNPP) has been examined. All alkali metal ions studied acted as catalysts. Alkali metal ions added as inert salts increased the rate while decreased rate resulted on M+ complexation with 18-crown-6 ether. Kinetic analysis indicated the interaction of possibly three potassium ions, four sodium ions, and five lithium ions in the transition state of the reactions of ethoxide with PNPP. Pre-association of the anionic substrate with two metals ions in the ground state gave the best fit to the experimental data of the sodium system. Thus, the study gives evidence of the role of several metal ions in nucleophilic displacement reactions of ethoxide with anionic PNPP, both in the ground state and in the transition state. Molecular modeling of the anionic transition state implies that the size of the monovalent cation and the steric requirement of the pentacoordinate transition state are the primary limitations on the number of cations that can be brought to bear to stabilize the transition state and catalyze nucleophilic substitution at phosphorus. The bearing of the present work on metal ion catalysis in enzyme systems is discussed, in particular enzymes that catalyze phosphoryl transfer, which often employ multiple metal ions. Our results, both kinetic and modeling, reveal the importance of electrostatic stabilization of the transition state for phosphoryl transfer that may be effected by multiple cations, either monovalent metal ions or amino acid residues. The more such cations can be brought into contact with the anionic transition state, the greater the catalysis observed.Key words: alkali metal ion catalysis, nucleophilic displacement at phosphorus, multiple metal ion catalysis, phosphoryl transfer.

Intestinal Brush Border

For rabbit intestinal brush-border sucrase, a model based on classical Michaelis-Dixon theory cannot fully explain the peculiar antagonistic relationship existing between the substrate and one key proton, Hx, which at acid pH values behaves as a fully competitive inhibitor. In the same pH range, a second proton, Hy, is responsible for changes in catalytic activity and behaves as a mixed-type partially non-competitive inhibitor [Vasseur, Tellier & Alvarado (1982) Arch. Biochem. Biophys. 218, 263-274]. Although involved in the same ionization reaction, these two protons have different kinetic functions, since they are responsible for affinity-type and capacity-type effects respectively. Depending on whether Hx is bound or not, we postulate the enzyme to alternate between two distinct forms differing in their binding properties. The alkali-metal ions Na+ and Li+ have a concentration-dependent biphasic effect on this equilibrium. At low concentrations they facilitate the release of Hx, resulting in K-type activation. At higher concentrations they favour enzyme reprotonation, causing K-type inhibition. On the basic side of the pH spectrum, our results confirm the existence of separate non-competitive effects of the alkali-metal ions, particularly Li+ [Alvarado & Mahmood (1979) J. Biol. Chem. 254, 9534-9541]. To explain the molecular mechanisms underlying the alkali-metal-ion- and H+-dependent effects, we formulate a sucrase model, the three-protons model, in which the acid and basic ionization constants involve respectively two and one key prototropic groups that are functionally distinguishable. A global iterative fit of the relevant general equation to our whole set of data has permitted us to estimate the numerical value of each of the constants constituting the model.

Calculate the electronic structure of alkali metal ion-doped Zn crystal, based on density functional theory (DFT) first-principles plane-wave ultra-soft pseudo-potential method. Analyze the band structure of alkali metal ion-doped ZnO crystal, and the electronic density of states. The results indicated that in theory, the doping of alkali metal ions are able to form a p-type ZnO semiconductor, and introduce in the deep acceptor levels. In the actual substitution process, the dopant ions may enter the interstitial site. Thus the alkali metal ions are tending to become donor interstitial impurities. In addition, since the ionic radius of K is larger than the ionic radiuses of Li and Na. And K+ formed the minimum acceptor level (0.078eV), which is a shallow acceptor level. K+ is better than Li+ and Na+ as a dopant. In short, they are not good p-type dopants.

(This paper has been printed in full in Proceedings B, 138, 219) By the use as tracers of 42 K, 86 Rb and 32 P it has been shown that in the metabolism of Bact. lactis aerogenes ladis aerogenes ( a ) the alkali-metal ion enters the cell during oxidation of the carbon substrate (glucose, succinic acid, acetic acid) whether or not a nitrogen source is provided so that growth occurs; in either event the alkali-metal ion subsequently leaves the cell again; ( b ) if the pH is lowered the maximum uptake of the cation by the functioning cell is raised, although increased hydrion concentration first causes displacement of alkali-metal ions from resting cells. ( c ) in the early stages of growth, or of glucose oxidation without growth, the flow into the cell of alkali cations and of phosphate anions takes place in a parallel way.

Membrane Transport Systems

An artificial membrane system based on a series of macrocyclic polyether carriers (crown ethers) is described. Under the influence of a proton gradient the carriers move alkali metal ions from basic to acidic solution through a chloroform membrane phase. Transport occurs against the concentration gradient of the transported ion as a result of a coupled counterflow of protons. Different transport behaviors are observed depending upon the metal ion concentration. At high metal ion concentration the amount transported is a linear function of time; at lower metal ion concentration the amount transported is a complex function of time which may be described as the result of a pair of consecutive first order processes. Effects of metal ion, carrier, and proton concentration on transport rate are considered. The rate increases with increasing metal ion or carrier concentration but is essentially independent of the pH of either aqueous phase. Increased lipophilicity of the carrier also results in a rate increase. Carriers derived from 18-crown-6 transport potassium selectively and all ions more rapidly than 15-crown-5 derivatives which are, however, selective for sodium. The overall efficiency of the system is discussed in terms of competing "leak" reactions, either of cations from the basic phase or of anions from the acidic phase.

Treated Sample

Cs-type layered manganese oxide with a novel hexagonal-like morphology (Cs–BirMO) was prepared by a solid-state reaction procedure. The Cs+ extraction and alkali–metal ion insertion reactions were investigated by chemical analyses, x-ray analyses, scanning electron microscopy observation, Fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetric differential thermal analyses, pH titration, and distribution coefficient (Kd) measurements. A considerable percentage (88%) of Cs+ ions in the interlayer sites were topotactically extracted by acid treatment, accompanied by a slight change of the lattice parameters. Alkali–metal ions could be inserted into the interlayer of the acid-treated sample (H–BirMO), mainly by an ion-exchange mechanism. The pH titration curve of the H–BirMO sample showed a simple monobasic acid toward Li+, Rb+, and Cs+ ions, and dibasic acid behavior toward Na+ and K+ ions. The order of the apparent capacity was K+ > Li+ ≈ Na+ ≈ Rb+ ≈ Cs+ at pH < 6. The Kd study showed the selectivity sequence of K+ > Rb+ > Na+ > Li+ for alkali–metal ions at the range of pH <5; H–BirMO sample showed markedly high selectivity for the adsorption of K+ ions. Preliminary investigations of the electrochemical properties of the Li+-inserted sample Li–BirMO(1M, 6d) showed that the obtained samples had a relatively high discharge capacity of 115 mAh g−1 and excellent layered stability.
