The structure of coprinolone (1), an oxygen-bridged protoilludane from the W2 isolate of the fungus Coprinuspsychromorbidus, has been elucidated by chemical transformations and detailed 1H and 13C magnetic resonance studies, including homo- and heteronuclear correlation spectra. The 1H–1H coupling data and nuclear Overhauser difference spectra for 1 and derived isomers led to the establishment of its stereochemistry.

Abstract:
5,5-Diphenylhydanytoin (phenytoin) is the most widely used anticonvulsant drug, but has many side effects. Although its chemical mode of action is unknown, phenytoin is believed to function primarily by interference with the transport of sodium ions across the neuronal membrane. Structure–activity and lipophilicity–activity studies suggest that the drug interacts with its receptor through hydrogen bonding to the N3—C4 amide bond, and an aromatic–aromatic interaction with the C5 substituent. Since sodium channels are cysteine-rich peptides, whose function depends upon the cysteine[Formula: see

Abstract:
The chapter is devoted to structure and properties of composite adsorbents ‘salt inside porous matrix'. Characteristics of adsorbents ‘salt inside porous matrix', such as ‘zeolite – crystalline hydrate', ‘vermiculite – crystalline hydrate', ‘silica gel – crystalline hydrate' were analysed. Main advantages of composite adsorbents are shown to be higher adsorptive capacity and lower regeneration temperature as compared with host matrix. Adsorptive capacities of composite materials are shown to be significantly enhanced by introduction of salts in host matrix such as zeolite, vermiculite, or silica gel. Water uptake by composite adsorbent is shown to be increased by rising the salt content in it. The drawback of most of existing impregnation technologies is shown to be impossibility of obtaining composite with salt content more than 40 – 60% along with complexity. Sol gel method is shown to be an alternative for conventional impregnation methods. Properties of adsorbents ‘silica gel – sodium sulphate' synthesized according to sol gel method developed by authors were considered. The composite ‘silica gel – sodium sulphate' composition and structure were studied by IR-spectroscopy and wide-angle x-ray scattering. Adsorptive properties of crystalline Na2SO4 when allocated in silicon oxygen matrix are shown to result from dispersion up to nanoscale. Adsorptive capacities and heat of adsorption of composites ‘silica gel – sodium sulphate' and ‘silica gel – sodium acetate' surpass almost by 30% the value calculated from the linear superposition of the sorption capacities of the sorbent and massive salt. Their adsorption properties are shown to be not a linear combination of properties of silica gel and salt. The formation of a unique structure promoting an increase in the rate of reaction between crystalline hydrates and water vapor in the developed pores of the silicon-oxygen matrix is confirmed. It leads to increasing the heat of adsorption and the heat energy storage density. Strong difference of water sorption kinetic curves of composite ‘silica gel – sodium sulphate' and massive sodium sulphate is revealed. The correlation of their composition, structure, water adsorption kinetic, and operating characteristic as heat storage material is stated.

Abstract:
Much of our present knowledge of the architecture of molecules has been obtained from studies of the diffraction of X rays or neutrons by crystals. X rays are scattered by the electrons of atoms and ions, and the interference between the X rays scattered by the different atoms or ions. in a crystal can result in a diffraction pattern. Similarly, neutrons are scattered by the nuclei of atoms. Measurements on a crystal diffraction pattern can lead to information on the arrangement of atoms or ions within the crystal. This is the experimental technique to be described in this book. X-ray diffraction was first used to establish the three-dimensional arrangement of atoms in a crystal by William Lawrence Bragg in 1913 (Bragg, 1913), shortly after Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen had discovered X rays and Max von Laue had shown in 1912 that these X rays could be diffracted by crystals (Röntgen, 1895; Friedrich et al., 1912). Later, in 1927 and 1936 respectively, it was also shown that electrons and neutrons could be diffracted by crystals (Davisson and Germer, 1927; von Halban and Preiswerk, 1936; Mitchell and Powers, 1936). Bragg found from X-ray diffraction studies that, in crystals of sodium chloride, each sodium is surrounded by six equidistant chlorines and each chlorine by six equidistant sodiums. No discrete molecules of NaCl were found and therefore Bragg surmised that the crystal consisted of sodium ions and chloride ions rather than individual (noncharged) atoms (Bragg, 1913); this had been predicted earlier by William Barlow and William Jackson Pope (Barlow and Pope, 1907), but had not, prior to the research of the Braggs, been demonstrated experimentally. A decade and a half later, in 1928, Kathleen Lonsdale used X-ray diffraction methods to show that the benzene ring is a flat regular hexagon in which all carbon–carbon bonds are equal in length, rather than a ring structure that contains alternating single and double bonds (Lonsdale, 1928).Her experimental result, later confirmed by spectroscopic studies (Stoicheff, 1954), was of great significance in chemistry.

Abstract:
Natural organic matter (NOM) is a major intermediate in the global carbon, nitrogen, sulfur, and phosphorus cycles. NOM is also the environmental matrix that frequently controls binding, transport, degradation, and toxicity of many organic and inorganic contaminants. Despite its importance, NOM is poorly understood at the structural chemistry level because of its molecular complexity and heterogeniety. Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy is one of the most useful spectrometric methods used to investigate NOM structure because qualitative and quantitative organic structure information for certain organic elements can be generated by NMR for NOM in both the solution and solid states under nondegradative conditions. However, NMR spectroscopy is not as sensitive as infrared or ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy; it is not at present applicable to organic oxygen and sulfur, and quantification of NMR spectra is difficult under certain conditions. The purpose of this overview is to present briefly the “state of the art” of NMR characterization of NOM, and to suggest future directions for NMR research into NOM. More comprehensive texts concerning the practice of NMR spectroscopy and its application to NOM in various environments have been produced by Wilson and by Wershaw and Mikita. Carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen are the major elements of NOM; together they comprise about 90% of the mass. The minor elements that constitute the remainder are nitrogen, sulfur, phosphorus, and trace amounts of the various halogen elements. With the exception of coal, in which carbon is the most abundant element, the order of relative abundance in NOM on an atomic basis is H &gt; C &gt; O &gt; N &gt; S &gt; P = halogens. The optimum NMR-active nuclei for these elements are 1H, 13C, 17O, 15N, 33S, 31P, and 19F. The natural abundances and receptivities of these nuclei relative to 1H are given in Table 12.1. Quadrupolar effects for 17O, 33S, and halogen elements other than 19F lead to line broadening that greatly limits resolution in NMR studies of these elements in NOM.

Abstract:
Our sun is a typical “second generation,” or G2, star nearly 4.5 billion years old. The sun is composed of 92.1% hydrogen and 7.8% helium gas, as well as 0.1% of such all-important heavy elements as oxygen, carbon, nitrogen, silicon, magnesium, neon, iron, sulfur, and so forth in decreasing amounts (see Appendix 3). The heavy elements are generated from nucleosynthetic processes in stars, novae, and supernovae after the original formation of the Universe. This has led to the popular statement that we are, literally, the “children of the stars” because our bodies are composed of the elements formed inside stars. From astronomical studies of stellar structure, we know that, since its beginnings, the sun’s luminosity has gradually increased by about 30%. This startling conclusion has raised the so-called faint young sun climate problem: if the sun were even a few percent fainter in the past, then Earth could have been covered by ice. In this frozen state, it might not have warmed because the ice would reflect most of the incoming solar radiation back into space. Although volcanic aerosols covering the ice, early oceans moderating the climate, and other theories have been suggested to circumvent the “faint young sun” problem, how Earth escaped the ice catastrophe remains uncertain. How can the sun generate vast amounts of energy for billions of years and still keep shining? Before nuclear physics, scientists believed the sun generated energy by means of slow gravitational collapse. Still, this process would only let the sun shine about 30 million years before its energy was depleted. To shine longer, the sun requires another energy source. We now believe that a chain of nuclear reactions occurs inside the sun, with four hydrogen nuclei fusing into one helium nucleus at the sun’s center. Because the four hydrogen nuclei have more mass than the one helium nucleus, the resulting mass deficit is converted into energy according to Einstein’s famous formula E = mc2. The energy, produced near the sun’s center, creates a central temperature of about 15 million degrees Kelvin (°K).

Abstract:
The judicious use of sulfur dioxide (SO2) will inhibit the growth of microorganisms (e.g., bacteria) present on the grape skins as the berries come from the vineyard. Its early use presumes the vintner has decided that the adventitious wild yeasts which might be destroyed or inhibited by sulfur dioxide will not contribute to the vintage. It appears that Saccharomyces cerevisiae might be less susceptible to the action of sulfur dioxide than other yeasts that may be present. So, if the particular strain of S. cerevisiae used can cope, it may be able to function unimpeded. Regardless, sulfur dioxide might still be used because, in addition to suppression of deleterious microorganisms, it appears to reduce oxidation of particularly fragile white wine components. In industrial settings, both gaseous sulfur dioxide and sulfur dioxide as a liquefied gas (boiling point – 10 °C [14 °F]) are used. In either form it is a dangerous tool. It is dangerous first because it is toxic and second because an excess of it will ruin the wine. In many cases, because its value is recognized as beneficial, sulfur dioxide is replaced by addition of either sodium metabisulfite (Na2S2O5) or potassium metabisulfite (K2S2O5) with the latter generally preferred. Indeed, while it is best to look at the MSDS. (Manufacturer’s Safety Data Sheet) before use, the solubility of the two salts is the same and given as 450 grams/ liter (g/ L) at 68 °F (20 °C) and the pH on dissolution as between 3.5 and 4.5. The potassium (K) salt appears, at this writing, to be more readily available in food quality (as opposed to chemical quality) grade. So, with regard to sulfur dioxide (SO2), and as shown in Figure 17.1, its structure is much more similar to water and to ozone than it is to carbon dioxide (CO2); sulfur lies beneath oxygen (O2) in the periodic table (silicon, Si, lies beneath carbon). Nonetheless, sulfur dioxide (SO2) reacts with water much the same way that carbon dioxide (CO2) does.

Full text
Abstract:
Computational methods that can be employed to investigate fundamental questions concerning the complex chemical and structural behavior of biological molecules such as proteins, carbohydrates, and nucleic acids have been traditionally limited by the large number of atoms that comprise even the simplest system of biochemical interest. As a consequence, highly parameterized, empirical force field methods have been developed that describe the energy of macromolecular structures as a function of the spatial locations of the atomic nuclei. In combination with algorithms for simulating molecular dynamics, these classical models allow relatively accurate calculations of the structural and thermodynamic properties associated with proteins and nucleic acids. On the other hand, empirical approaches cannot be used to model molecular behavior that is directly dependent on electrons and their energies. For example, no information can be obtained concerning the electronic spectra of macromolecule/ligand complexes, electron transfer reactions such as those that occur within the photosynthetic reaction center, nitrogenase, an enzyme involved in nitrogen fixation, or cytochrome c oxidase which catalyzes the reduction of oxygen in the last step of aerobic respiration. Accurate modeling of transition states, excited states, and intermediates in biological catalysis requires application of quantummechanical (QM) representations since all of these phenomena depend on the distribution and/or excitation of electrons. At present, the most accurate ab initio algorithms for calculating electronic structure cannot be applied to systems comprised of hundreds of atoms, as such calculations scale as N4–N7 on most workstations, where N is the number of functions used in constructing the many-electron, molecular wavefunction. Even with the implementation of ab initio codes optimized for use on parallel computing engines, and density functional approaches, it is likely that high-accuracy QM calculations in the near future will remain limited to systems that comprise tens, rather than hundreds, of nonhydrogen atoms. Semi-empirical quantum-mechanical methods combine fundamental theoretical treatments of electronic behavior with parameters obtained from experiment to obtain approximate wavefunctions for molecules composed of hundreds of atoms.

Abstract:
Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy is an analytical tool to determine the structure of chemical compounds. Unlike other spectroscopic methods, signals recorded using NMR spectrometers are frequently in a range of zero to 20000 Hz, making direct playback possible. As each type of molecule has, based on its structural features, distinct and predictable features in its NMR spectra, NMR data sonification can be used to create auditory ‘fingerprints’ of molecules. This paper describes the methodology of NMR data sonification of the nuclei nitrogen, phosphorous, and oxygen and analyses th

Abstract:
The current study involves an experimental investigation of the decomposition of various biomass feedstocks and their conversion to gaseous fuels such as hydrogen. The steam gasification process resulted in higher levels of H2 and CO for various CO2 input ratios. With increasing rates of CO2 introduced into the feed stream, enhanced char conversion and increased CO levels were observed. While CH4 evolution was present throughout the gasification process at consistently low concentrations, H2 evolution was at significantly higher levels though it was detected only at elevated gasification tempe
