Characterization of the electron-accepting part of the organohalide respiration chain of Dehalobacter and Desulfitobacterium

Lorenzo Cimmino

Organohalide respiration (OHR) is a bacterial anaerobic process that use halogenated compounds, e.g. tetrachloroethene (PCE), as terminal electron acceptors. D. restrictus strain PER-K23, an obligate OHR bacterium (OHRB), and D. hafniense strain TCE1, a ba ...

Assessment of metal-based dihydrofolate reductase inhibitors on a novel mesofluidic platform

Paul Joseph Dyson

A new miniaturized micro sequential injection coupled with the lab-on-valve (mu SIA-LOV) technique was full-blown to perform inhibitory studies on dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR). The system was used to evaluate the DHFR inhibition activity of metal-based a ...

Stepwise Reduction of Dinitrogen by a Uranium-Potassium Complex Yielding a U(VI)/U(IV) Tetranitride Cluster

Marinella Mazzanti, Farzaneh Fadaei Tirani, Ivica Zivkovic, Luciano Barluzzi, Nadir Jori

Multimetallic cooperativity is believed to play a key role in the cleavage of dinitrogen to nitrides (N3-), but the mechanism remains ambiguous due to the lack of isolated intermediates. Herein, we report the reduction of the complex [K-2{[U-V(OSi((OBu)-Bu ...

Small molecule activation by multimetallic uranium complexes supported by siloxide ligands

Marinella Mazzanti, Luciano Barluzzi, Marta Falcone

The synthesis and reactivity of uranium compounds supported by the tris-tert-butoxysiloxide ligand is surveyed. The multiple binding modes of the tert-butoxysiloxide ligand have proven very well suited to stabilize highly reactive homo- and heteropolymetal ...

Assemblies of gold nanoparticles at liquid-liquid interfaces : from liquid optics to electrocatalysis

Evgeny Smirnov

The interface between two immiscible liquids, i.e. oil and water, is an extremely attractive scaffold to self-assemble nanoparticles (NP) in arranged films. The liquid-liquid interfaces (LLIs) are defect-free and pristine by the nature, they are transparen ...
