    Notes: Abstract A blue-light-induced rapid phosphorylation of a 100-kDa protein localized in plasma membranes of phototropically sensitive tips of maize (Zea mays L.) coleoptiles was studied. Since, under in-vivo conditions or in a crude homogenate of tips, cytosolic ATP is the phosphate donor for the light-induced phosphorylation of this protein, a subsequent in-vitro phosphorylation by [32P]ATP is prevented. However, in-vitro irradiation of microsomal membranes isolated from non-irradiated tips followed by a 1-min incubation with [32P]ATP resulted in a strong phosphorylation (labelling) of the 100-kDa plasma-membrane protein. This process was saturated by a 7-s light pulse (200 μmol photons·m−2·s−1). In the absence of [32P]ATP the capacity for in-vitro phosphorylation of the 100-kDa protein after a 30-s light pulse declined slowly within 60 min but could be reconstituted by a new light pulse in the presence of reducing compounds. Moreover, when plasma membranes which had been stored frozen were used, reducing compounds such as NADH, NADPH, ascorbate, glutathione or dithiotreithol enhanced the light-triggered in-vitro phosphorylation. These compounds were unable to elicit or enhance the phosphorylation in the dark. It is suggested that the transfer of (blue-light) excited electrons from the chromophore moiety of the receptor to the target (either the 100-kDa protein or the protein kinase itself) is facilitated when reducing compounds instantly eliminate the positive charge generated at the chromophore. The transferred electrons could finally alter the redox state and-or the conformation of either the 100-kDa protein, rendering it susceptible to the action of a protein kinase, or the protein kinase which would then be capable of phospho-rylating the 100-kDa protein.

    Notes: Abstract Tips of maize coleoptiles, which function as esential light sensors for the phototropic growth reaction, exhibit a rapid blue-light-induced phosphorylation of a plasma-membrane-associated 100-kDa protein. Characteristics of this reaction are as follows: (i) The functional unit involved in the light-dependent phosphorylation consists of a photoreceptor, a protein kinase and the 100-kDa protein. This complex is only localized in the plasma membrane of tips but not in other parts of the seedling, (ii) The photoreceptor is a cryptochrome-like compound, (iii) The pH optimum of the light-dependent phosphorylation on isolated plasma membranes is around pH 7.8 whereas the light-independent phosphorylation of other membrane proteins occurs at lower values (pH 6.2). (iv) The light-induced in-vitro phosphorylation of the 100-kDa protein is strongly inhibited by the protein-kinase inhibitor staurosporine (IC50=4 nM). (v) The 32P-moiety of a 32P-[100 kDa]-protein complex generated after a light pulse with the aid of a membrane-associated protein kinase in the presence of [γ-32P]ATP cannot be removed by a 100-fold higher level of (unlabelled) ATP. This fact indicates that protein and phosphate are covalently connected and that the complex is not a short-lived intermediate. (vi) The 100-kDa protein is not identical to the plasma-membrane H+-ATPase, as shown by immunostaining on Western blots. (vii) Irradiation-dependent in vivo phosphorylation of the 100-kDa protein in tips is already saturated by a light pulse of 5 s. In contrast, the de-phosphorylation of the protein in the dark is a slow reaction lasting about 30 min. It is suggested that the blue-light-triggered phosphorylated status of the 100-kDa protein is an early step in phototropism of the coleoptile, affecting the transport of auxin primarily in the irradiated flank.

    Notes: Abstract The blue-light-sensing apical part of coleoptiles of grasses is responsible for the first positive phototropic bending reaction of this organ. The photoreceptor responsible has been shown to be localized to the plasma membrane (PM) of this tip region. An approximately 100-kDa protein moiety of this receptor is rapidly phosphorylated upon irradiation. Properties of this protein kinase reaction were studied in vitro by using PMs from the maize (Zea mays L.) coleoptile tip region: (i) The substrate for the blue-light-triggered phosphorylation of the 100-kDa protein was found to be ATP as well as GTP. However, the affinity of the involved protein kinase for the substrate GTP was lower than for ATP. (ii) Experiments were undertaken to find out whether a photoreceptor moiety acts as an autophosphorylating protein kinase or whether the photoreceptor protein, when activated by light, becomes the target of an extrinsic protein kinase. Two studied extrinsic protein kinases (50 and 55 kDa) of the coleoptile tip were found not to be involved in the lightdependent protein phosphorylation. The degree of phosphorylation of the 100-kDa protein on isolated plasma membranes upon irradiation at 0 °C was scarcely different from a reaction at 30 °C, in contrast to the background protein phosphorylations which decreased with decreasing temperature. This result points to an autophosphorylation mechanism at the receptor. (iii) In mixing experiments, solubilized membranes from maize coleoptiles were irradiated and added to unirradiated membrane proteins from pea (Pisum sativum L.) epicotyls followed by addition of [γ-32P]ATP. Unirradiated proteins from pea were not phosphorylated by light-activated (autophosphorylatable) maize protein kinases. (iv) It is suggested that the blue-light-sensitive photoreceptor localized to the PM of the phototropically active tip region of coleoptiles has an autophosphorylatable kinase domain which is able to use ATP or GTP as substrate.

    Notes: Abstract 3-Indolyl[1-14C]acetic acid (IAA) or 1-naphthyl[1-14C]acetic acid (NAA) was applied toAvena coleoptiles and the output of14CO2 was measured afterwards. In the dark the applied IAA was decarboxylated by the coleoptiles. The decarboxylation rate increased for 3h after addition of IAA. Under the same conditions NAA was not decarboxylated by the coleoptiles. When the coleoptiles were illuminated before application of IAA, the kinetics of14CO2-output did not change, a finding which shows that the IAA decarboxylating enzyme system is not induced or activated by light. In order to study decarboxylation of IAA in relation to phototropism coleoptiles were illuminated unilaterally during the measurement of14CO2-output. Blue light and white light within the range of phototropically active intensities do not cause any increase of the IAA decarboxylated rate after the onset of illumination. There is a difference between NAA and IAA concerning the behaviour in vivo and in vitro. NAA is decarboxylatedin vitro as well asin vivo. IAA, however, is found to be photosensitive invitro but seems to be protected against light destruction invivo.

    Notes: Einwirkung von Diazomethan auf Allylhalogenide in Gegenwart von Kupfersalzen liefert neben Halogenmethyl-cyclopropanen auch 4-Halogen-olefine. Die Produktverteilung ist von der Art des Halogens, von den Substituenten an der Doppelbindung, vom Katalysator und vom Lösungsmittel abhängig. Die Cyclopropanbildung verläuft stereospezifisch. Die 4-Halogen-olefine entstehen unter Allylumlagerung, wie an methylsubstituierten und deuterierten Verbindungen gezeigt wird. Als Reaktionsmechanismus wird Gl. (12), S. 2864, vorgeschlagen.

    Description / Table of Contents: Ein Syntheseweg zu Poly(phenylsilyl)methane und Poly(bromsilyl)methaneFür Di- und Tri(silyl)methan, aus denen durch Dampfphasenzersetzung (CVD) Kohlenstoff-haltiges amorphes Silicium (a-SiC:H) erhalten werden kann, wird eine ergiebige dreistufige Synthese beschrieben: Chlor(phenyl)silan und Di- oder Trihalogenmethane reagieren in guten Ausbeuten mit Magnesium in Tetrahydrofuran zu Bis- bzw. Tris(phenylsilyl)methan. Durch Behandlung mit wasserfreiem Bromwasserstoff können daraus fast quantitativ die Zwischenprodukte Bis- bzw. Tris(bromsilyl)methan erhalten werden, deren Hydrierung mit Lithiumaluminiumhydrid im Zweiphasensystem mit Phasentransferkatalysator die Zielverbindungen CH2(SiH3)2 bzw. CH(SiH3)3 ergibt. Wie diese Verbindungen wurden auch CH2(SiH2Ph)2, CH(SiH2Ph)3, CH2(SiH2Br)2, und CH(SiH2Br)3, durch spektroskopische Standardmethoden charakterisiert. Die Kristall- und Molekülstruktur von CH(SiH2Ph)3 wurde durch Einkristallröntgenbeugung ermittelt. Die für das Molekül gefundene kristallographische C3-Symmetrie wird unter Bezugnahme auf die Struktur anderer Spezies diskutiert, in denen drei Substituenten mit potentieller Cs-Symmetrie an ein tetraedrisches Zentrum gebunden sind.
    Notes: A three-step synthesis is presented for di- and tri(silyl)methane, two feedstock gases for the chemical vapour deposition of amorphous hydrogenated silicon/carbon alloys (a-SiC:H). Chloro(phenyl)silane and di- or trihalomethanes react with magnesium in tetrahydrofuran to give high yields of bis- and tris(phenylsilyl)methane, respectively. The two products can be converted into bis- and tris(bromosilyl)methane by treatment with anhydrous hydrogen bromide. Bromide/hydride substitution in these precursors is accomplished with lithium aluminum hydride in a two-phase system using a phase-transfer catalyst. The compounds CH2(SiH2Ph)2, CH(SiH2Ph)3, CH2(SiH2Br)2, CH(SiH2Br)3, CH2(SiH3)2, and CH(SiH3)3 have been characterized by standard spectroscopic methods, and the crystal and molecular structure of CH(SiH2Ph)3 has been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The molecule adopts a conformation with crystallographic C3 symmetry. This result is discussed with regard to the structure of related molecules with three substituents of potential Cs symmetry at a tetrahedral center.

    Description / Table of Contents: Synthesis of Macrocyclic [2n] Paracyclophanes and Crystal Structure of [2.2.2.2.2.]Paracyclophane [p-C6H4CH2CH2]5The synthesis of [2n]paracyclophanes from α,α′-dibromo-p-xylene and sodium/tetraphenylethene in tetrahydrofuran has been improved, and the separation of the components of the resulting cyclophane mixture (50% yield) by chromatography has been optimized. The crystal structure of the n = 5 homologue has been determined. The compound crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/n with two crystallographically independent molecules in the unit cell. The two forms have different conformations, which indicates a high flexibility of the macrocycle.

    Description / Table of Contents: Investigations on Metal Catalysts. I. Structural and Catalytical Investigations on Palladium-Silver PowdersSeveral conditions for preparation of palladium-silver powders are described. By choice of suitable preparation metal crystallites were obtained, in which exists a gradient of concentration with respect to the metals. This gradient determines the behaviour of sorption and catalytical activity, respectively.Characterization of catalysts with regard to their structure takes place by means of X-ray measurements and investigations of sorption (adsorption of N2, chemisorption of CO, sorption of H2), respectively. The catalytical activity of alloys has been measured by means of hydrogenation of benzene.
    Notes: Es werden verschiedene Präparationsbedingungen pulverförmiger Pd-Ag-Katalysatoren beschrieben. Durch Wahl geeigneter Herstellungsverfahren läßt sich in den Metallkristalliten ein Konzentrationsgradient erzeugen, der das Sorptionsverhalten der Legierungen sowie ihre katalytische Aktivität bestimmt.Die Charakterisierung der Proben erfolgte durch Röntgenuntersuchungen sowie Sorptionsmessungen (N2-Adsorption, CO-Chemisorption, Wasserstoffsorption); das katalytische Verhalten der Legierungen wurde mittels der Benzolhydrierung ermittelt.
