Insertion of a functionalised single molecule magnet into preformed self-assembled monolayers
摘要:
A new method to graft Mn12 magnetic clusters to surface has been investigated. Starting from the preparation of a simple monolayer of aromatic sulfur based molecules organised on gold surface, a Mn12 functionalised with similar moieties is included into the bidimensional lattice. This new derivative has been fully characterised in its bulk structural and magnetic features and grafted into two types of preformed self-assembled monolayer on gold and characterised by means of scanning tunneling microscopy. A dependence of the morphology of such adsorbates on the starting monolayer, in terms of the homogeneity of the deposit and isolation of single SMMs has been found and discussed.

Biotransformation of organic sulfides. Part 6. Formation of chiral para-substituted benzyl methyl sulfoxides by Helminthosporium species NRRL 4671
摘要:
The fungus Helminthosporium species NRRL 4671 has been used for the biotransformation of a series of para-substituted benzyl sulfides with substituent groups consisting of trifluoromethyl, halo, hydroxy, methoxy, acetoxy, nitro, cyano, amino, acetamido, acyl and carboxylic acid units. In all cases, sulfoxide formation occurred in good yield and with predominant (S) chirality at the sulfur position. A minor amount of sulfone product was also obtained from the halo- and methoxy-substituted substrates.

the corresponding sulfide in the presence of hydrogenperoxide. Investigation of the sulfoxidation activity of this enzyme shows that activating substituents at the para-position of the aromatic ring of methyl phenyl sulfide positively influence the selectivity of the reaction, whereas strongly electron-withdrawing groups cancel the catalyzed sulfoxidation reaction. The first evidence is presented that
