[source] Separation and recovery of intact gold-virus complex by agarose electrophoresis and electroelution: Application to the purification of cowpea mosaic virus and colloidal gold complexELECTROPHORESIS, Issue 17 2004Carissa M. Soto Abstract Colloidal gold has been coupled to a mutant cowpea mosaic virus (CPMV), which contains 60 cysteine residues on the surface. A purification process was developed to separate the gold-containing viral nanoblocks (VNBs) from the free gold. Agarose electrophoresis was utilized to separate the mixture followed by electroelution of the desired sample to recover the intact virus. Mobility of Au-VNB and free colloidal gold was facilitated by the addition of thioctic acid (TA). 30% of the gold-containing virus was recovered after electroelution as determined by absorbance measurements. Histogram analysis of transmission electron microscopy (TEM) images demonstrated the efficient separation of gold-containing virus from free gold. TEM and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images indicated that the virus was recovered intact. Monodisperse spherical particles of nominal size of 45 nm were observed under SEM. [source] First Example of a Gold(I) N -Heterocyclic-Carbene-Based Initiator for the Bulk Ring-Opening Polymerization of L -LactideEUROPEAN JOURNAL OF INORGANIC CHEMISTRY, Issue 18 2006Lipika Ray Abstract Synthesis, structure, and catalysis studies of two Au- and Ag-based initiators, namely, [3-(N - tert -butylacetamido)-1-(2-hydroxycyclohexyl)imidazol-2-ylidene]AuCl (1c) and [3-(N - tert -butylacetamido)-1-(2-hydroxycyclohexyl)imidazol-2-ylidene]AgCl (1b), for the bulk ring-opening polymerization of L -lactide are reported. Specifically, gold complex 1c was obtained from silver complex 1b by the transmetalation reaction with (SMe2)AuCl. Silver complex 1b was synthesized by the treatment of 3-(N - tert -butylacetamido)-1-(2-hydroxycyclohexyl)imidazolium chloride (1a) with Ag2O. Compound 1a was synthesized directly from the reaction of N - tert -butyl-2-chloroacetamide, cyclohexene oxide, and imidazole. The molecular structures of 1a, 1b, and 1c have been determined by X-ray diffraction studies. The formation of neutral monomeric complexes with linear geometries at the metal centers was observed for both 1b and 1c. The Au and Ag complexes 1c and 1b successfully catalyzed the bulk ring-opening polymerization of L -lactide at elevated temperatures under solvent-free melt conditions to produce moderate to low molecular weight polylactide polymers with narrow molecular weight distributions.

By choosing the appropriate phosphine, the selective formation of the Z or the E isomer of the vinyl ether can be tuned, and the undesired formation of the ketal can be controlled. The isomerisation of fumarates (Z -isomer) to maleates (E -isomer) is a gold-catalysed process that can be conducted in one-pot. When using polyols, 5-membered cyclic ketals are easily isolated by extraction with hexane and the gold complex can be reused. [source] Metallocyclo- and Polyphosphazenes Containing Gold or Silver: Thermolytic Transformation into Nanostructured MaterialsCHEMISTRY - A EUROPEAN JOURNAL, Issue 48 2009Josefina Jiménez Dr. Abstract A cyclotriphosphazene bearing two 4-oxypyridine groups on the same phosphorus atom, gem -[N3P3(O2C12H8)2(OC5H4N-4)2] (I), and its analogous polymer [{NP(O2C12H8)}0.7{NP(OC5H4N-4)2}0.3]n (II), have been used to prepare gold or silver, cyclic and polymeric, metallophosphazenes. The following complexes, gem -[N3P3(O2C12H8)2(OC5H4N-4{ML})2] (ML=Au(C6F5) (1) or Au(C6F5)3 (2)), [N3P3(O2C12H8)2(OC5H4N-4{AuPPh3})2][NO3]2 (3), and [N3P3(O2C12H8)2(OC5H4N-4{AgPPh2R})2][SO3CF3]2 (R=Ph (4) or Me (5)) have been obtained. Complexes 1 and 4 are excellent models for the preparation of the analogous polymers [{NP(O2C12H8)}0.7{NP(OC5H4N-4{ML})2}0.3]n (ML=Au(C6F5) (P1), Ag(OSO2CF3)PPh3 (P2)). All complexes have been characterized by elemental analysis, various spectroscopic methods, and mass spectrometry. The polymers were further investigated by thermochemical methods (thermogravimetric analysis) and differential scanning calorimetry. For compounds 1,5 and for the starting phosphazene I, a mixture of different stereoisomers may be expected. The stereochemistry in solution has been studied by variable-temperature NMR spectroscopy studies, which provided evidence for interconversion processes that involve changes in the chirality of a 2,2,-dioxybiphenyl group. A single-crystal X-ray analysis of the gold complex 2 confirmed not only the proposed structure, but also S,S and R,R configurations at the two biphenoxy-substituted phosphorus centers, in contrast to those observed for the precursor I. Pyrolysis of these new metallophosphazenes was also studied. Notably, pyrolysis of the gold derivatives gave macroporous metallic gold sponges without the requirement of either an external reducing agent or a porous support. These materials were all characterized by XRD, TEM, SEM, and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. En este trabajo se ha usado el ciclotrifosfazeno que tiene dos grupos 4-oxipiridina en el mismo átomo de fósforo, gem -[N3P3(O2C12H8)2(OC5H4N-4)2] (I), y su polímero análogo, [{NP(O2C12H8)}0.7{NP(OC5H4N-4)2}0.3]n(II), para preparar nuevos compuestos de oro o plata, cíclicos o polímeros. Se han obtenido los siguientes complejos, gem -[N3P3(O2C12H8)2(OC5H4N-4{ML})2] [ML=Au(C6F5) (1), Au(C6F5)3 (2)], [N3P3(O2C12H8)2(OC5H4N-4{AuPPh3})2][NO3]2 (3) and [N3P3(O2C12H8)2(OC5H4N-4{AgPPh2R})2][SO3CF3]2 [R=Ph (4) or Me (5)], que a su vez han resultado ser excelentes modelos para preparar los polímeros análogos de oro o plata, [{NP(O2C12H8)}0.7{NP(OC5H4N-4{ML})2}0.3]n[ML=Au(C6F5)(P1), Ag(OSO2CF3)PPh3 (P2)]. Todos los complejos, cíclicos o polímeros, se han caracterizado por análisis elemental, por métodos espectroscópicos y por espectrometría de masas. Los polímeros, además, se han caracterizado por métodos termoquímicos (TGA y DSC). Para 1,5 y para el fosfazeno de partida (I) puede esperarse una mezcla de varios estereoisómeros. Se ha estudiado su estereoquímica en disolución por RMN a temperatura variable, lo que ha indicado la presencia de un proceso de interconversión que implica cambios de quiralidad del grupo 2,2,-dioxibifenilo. La resolución de la estructura cristalina del complejo 2, por difracción de Rayos X, no sólo ha confirmado la estructura propuesta sino que, además, indica una configuración (S,S)- y (R,R)- , a diferencia de lo observado para el precursor I. Se ha estudiado también la pirólisis de estos nuevos metalofosfazenos. Cabe destacar que la pirólisis de los derivados de oro, trímero (1) y polímero (P1), dio esponjas macroporosas de oro metálico sin utilizar un agente reductor externo ni un soporte poroso. Todos estos materiales se han caracterizado por XRD, TEM, SEM y EDAX.

[source] Role of Iron(III) and Aluminum Hydroxides in Concentration/reduction of Au(III) ComplexesRESOURCE GEOLOGY, Issue 3 2002Akiko UCHIDA Abstract: The adsorption of gold on iron(III) and aluminum hydroxides from solutions containing Au(III) complexes has been studied as a function of pH and chloride concentration at 30C. Iron(III) hydroxide was more effective in adsorbing gold from solution than aluminum hydroxide. However, both hydroxides controlled the behavior of Au(III) complex with very similar manner. The most effective gold adsorption occurred in aqueous solution with near neutral pH and low Cl concentration. In this solution condition, Au(III) complexes were mainly dissolved as AuCl2(OH)2 - and AuCl(OH)3 - , and the surface charge for both hydroxides was positive. In addition, the adsorbed Au(III) complexes were spontaneously reduced to elemental gold in spite of the absence of a specific reducing agent. The results of this study suggest that adsorption and spontaneous reduction of gold complexes on the surface of hydrous metal oxides with positive charge play an important role in gold precipitation in subsurface environment.

Melgarejo The title compound, [Au(C7H7S)(C18H15P)], is conformationally chiral and crystallizes from benzene,hexane as individually enantiopure crystals. This mononuclear compound has the AuI atom linearly bound to a triphenylphosphine P atom and to a phenyl C atom of a 2-(methylsulfanyl)phenyl group. The angle at the AuI atom is 175.9,(2)°. The linear ligand coordination about the AuI atom has geometric parameters inside the remarkably narrow range found for gold complexes bound by a phosphine ligand and by the ortho -C atom of a substituted phenyl group. This is the first example of gold(I) attached to a methylsulfanyl aromatic carbanion. [source] | ||||||||||
