A series of nitrogen-containing organic molecules (4,4’-bipyridyl; trans-1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethylene; 1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethane; 4-aminopyridine and trans-1,4-diaminocyclohexane) was envisaged for cocrystallization experiments together with fluorescein. These compounds, containing pyridyl or/and amino nitrogen atoms, can act either as hydrogen bond acceptors for the phenol groups of fluorescein-generating cocrystals or as proton acceptors forming organic salts. Five cocrystals were obtained with the partners containing only pyridyl groups: {(H2Fl)2(bipy)} (1); {(H2Fl)2(bipy)(MeOH)2} (2); {(H2Fl)2(bpete)(EtOH)2} (3); {(H2Fl)(bpete)} (4); {(H2Fl)(bpeta)} (5). The compounds bearing amino groups deprotonate fluorescein producing salts: [(HFl)(Hampy)]∙2H2O (6); [(HFl)(Hampy)] (7); [(Fl)(H2diach)]∙3H2O (8); [(HFl)2(H2diach)]∙2H2O∙EtOH (9); and [(HFl)2(Fl)2(H2diach)3]∙4H2O (10). Optical properties of the cocrystals and salts were investigated.

The crystal structure of osimertinib mesylate Form B has been solved and refined using synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction data and optimized using density functional techniques. Osimertinib mesylate Form B crystallizes in space group P-1 (#2) with a = 11.42912(17), b = 11.72274(24), c = 13.32213(22) Å, α = 69.0265(5), β = 74.5914(4), γ = 66.4007(4)°, V = 1511.557(12) Å3, and Z = 2. The crystal structure is characterized by alternating layers of cation–anion and parallel stacking interactions parallel to the ab-planes. The cation is protonated at the nitrogen atom of the dimethylamino group, which forms a strong hydrogen bond between the cation and the anion. That hydrogen atom also participates in a weaker intramolecular hydrogen bond to an amino nitrogen. There are two additional N–H⋅⋅⋅O hydrogen bonds between the cation and the anion. Several C–H⋅⋅⋅O hydrogen bonds also link the cations and anions. The powder pattern has been submitted to ICDD® for inclusion in the Powder Diffraction File™.

Three sources of food proteins were treated with microbial transglutaminase (EC 2.3.2.13) in order to assess changes in the physicochemical properties of reactivity, solubility, emulsification, and free amino groups of the formed polymers. Samples of lactic casein (LC), isolated soy protein (ISP), and hydrolysed animal protein (HAP), were incubated with the enzyme for one or two hours. LC and ISP showed a reduced solubility of 15% and 24% respectively, with HAP showing no alteration on solubility. Amino nitrogen content was 7%, 3% and 2% reduced for HAP, LC and ISP respectively. LC and ISP demonstrated lower emulsifying activity when they were enzymatically treated but the formed emulsions were stable, contrasting with HAP, which exhibited no changes in emulsifying properties.

A marked reactivation of tobacco mosaic virus protein that has been partially or completely inactivated by formaldehyde was obtained by dialysis at pH 3. The activity of partially inactivated virus proteins was generally increased about 10-fold by the reactivation process. It was also found possible to reactivate completely inactive preparations to an appreciable extent. It was shown that the inactivation and the subsequent reactivation cannot be explained by the toxicity of the formaldehyde or of the formolized protein or by aggregation. Inactivation was accompanied by a decrease in amino groups as indicated by Van Slyke gasometric determinations and by colorimetric estimations using ninhydrin. Inactivation also causes a decrease in the number of groups that react with Folin's reagent at pH 7.7. The latter are probably the indole nuclei of tryptophane, for it was demonstrated that tryptophane, glycyltryptophane, and indole propionic acid react with formaldehyde in a similar manner, while tyrosine and glycyltyrosine do not. Evidence that reactivation is accompanied by an increase in amino nitrogen and in groups that react with Folin's reagent was obtained by colorimetric estimation. The demonstration that the addition of formaldehyde to the virus protein results in a simultaneous decrease of activity, of amino groups, and of groups that react with Folin's phenol reagent, and that under conditions favorable for the removal of formaldehyde the virus activity is regained and the number of such groups increases, indicates that certain of these groups play at least a partial role in the structure necessary for virus activity. These changes can best be interpreted on the basis of known chemical reactions and are considered as evidence that virus activity is a specific property of the protein.
