    Notes: The solution complexes of ethidium bromide with nine different deoxydinucleotides and the four self-complementary ribodinucleoside monophosphates as well as mixtures of complementary and noncomplementary deoxydinucleotides were studied as models for the binding of the drug to DNA and RNA. Ethidium bromide forms the strongest complexes with pdC-dG and CpG and shows a definite preference for interaction with pyrimidine-purine sequence isomers. Cooperativity is observed in the binding curves of the self-complementary deoxydinucleotides pdC-dG and pdG-dC as well as the ribodinucleoside monophosphates CpG and GpC, indicating the formation of a minihelix around ethidium bromide. The role of complementarity of the nucleotide bases was evident in the visible and circular dichroism spectra of mixtures of complementary and noncomplementary dinucleotides. Nuclear magnetic resonance measurements on an ethidium bromide complex with CpG provided evidence for the intercalation model for the binding of ethidium bromide to double-stranded nucleic acids. The results also suggest that ethidium bromide may bind to various sequences on DNA and RNA with significantly different binding constants.

    Notes: Fluorescence, CD, absorption, and 1H-nmr studies are reported for complexes of 7-amino-actinomycin D with deoxydinucleotides, deoxytetranucleotides, and poly(dG-dC)· poly(dG-dC). The optical spectra for the 7-amino-actinomycin D complex with pdG-dC, pdG-dC-dG-dC and pdC-dG-dC-dG are similar in shape to the 7-amino-actinomycin D complex with either DNA or poly(dG-dC). The changes in the 1H chemical shifts of the 7-amino-actinomycin D and the pdG-dC resonances that accompany complex formation show that 7-amino-actinomycin D forms a minature intercalated complex with two pdG-dC molecules. The magnitudes of the induced chemical shifts for the 7-amino-actinomycin D complex formation with pdG-dC are similar to, but slightly different from, the induced chemical shifts which are obtained when actinomycin D forms a minature intercalated complex with two pdG-dC molecules. The pdN-dG dinucleotides (N = C, A, or T) form stacked complexes with 7-amino-actinomycin D. The presence of the 7-amino-group results in a larger dimerization constant (in aqueous solution) for 7-amino-actinomycin D [KD(6°C) = 4.4 × 103M-1], as compared to actinomycin D [KD(6°C) = 1.7 × 103M-1]; the chemical shifts which accompany dimer formation indicate that the chromophores stack in an inverted manner. Intercalation of 7-amino-actinomycin D into minature double helices, as well as into calf thymus DNA, poly(dG-dC)·poly(dG-dC), and poly(dA-dC)·poly(dG-dT), results in an enhancement of the relative fluorescence intensity and a shift in both the absorbance and corrected emission spectra.

    Notes: Work on two sheet organosilicon polymers, one derived from the mineral chrysotile and the other from the mineral apophyllite, is described. This work provides direct evidence that both these polymers are composed of sheets. In addition, it shows that in the chrysotile-derived polymer the sheets curl into scrolls, and that in the apophyllite-derived polymer the sheets are essentially flat.

    Notes: Anionic living polymerization methods, using organometallic initiators such as butyllithium reagents, have proven useful for, inter alia, styrene polymerization and are amenable to subsequent functionalization of poly(styryl)lithium in the termination step. In this study, general methods for the selective preparation of small styrene oligomers and termination of the intermediate oligo(styryl)lithium anions were investigated. The crude reaction mixtures were analyzed directly by tandem gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS). Of the carbon- and silicon-based electrophiles tested, chloro(chloroalkyl)silanes, Cl-SiR2(CH2)nCl in particular, were shown by GC/MS to be regioselective end-capping reagents, thus allowing subsequent transformation to the primary amine. The combined GC/MS data allow not only an estimate of the degree of functionalization, but also the identification of by-products, thus providing insight into the end-capping process that otherwise might be difficult to access. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Long-term compositional changes were observed when n-hexane plasma polymers were stored in air at ambient temperature. These post-deposition changes were monitored over periods exceeding one year using XPS, grazing angle FTIR, and SEM. A rapid initial increase in the oxygen content was followed by a slower oxygen uptake, which continued for many months. In contrast to the reported autocatalytic acceleration of the oxidation of polyolefins, the rate of oxidation of n-hexane plasma polymers was found to decrease continuously, and it did not proceed to the same extent toward higher oxidation states. The plasma polymer coatings did not show physical manifestations of oxidative degradation such as cracking, reduction in thickness, or loss of physical integrity. Comparison of the XPS and FTIR data suggested that the top few nanometers of the plasma polymer coatings oxidized at a faster rate than the “bulk.” The experimental data were interpreted using a model comprising reactions known from the oxidative degradation of polyolefins: carbon-centered radicals, trapped in the course of the plasma deposition, combine with atmospheric oxygen to form metastable peroxy radicals and hydroperoxides, which decompose to generate a variety of stable product groups such as hydroxyl, carbonyl, and carboxylic groups. There was broad agreement between the XPS data and the time dependence of particular species in model calculations. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Plasma polymer films were deposited from methyl methacrylate (MMA) vapor under various plasma conditions and XPS and FTIR used to study the changes to the compositions of the films as they were stored in air for longer than 1 year. The plasma power input per monomer mass unit (W/FM) markedly affected the composition of the freshly deposited MMA plasma polymers. A low value of W/FM led to a high degree of retention of the original monomer structure, whereas a high value of W/FM resulted in substantial monomer fragmentation and the formation of a partially unsaturated material considerably different to conventional PMMA. As the MMA plasma coatings were stored in ambient air after fabrication, all showed spontaneous oxidative changes to their composition, but the extents and reaction products differed substantially. Deposition at low W/FM led to moderate oxidative changes, whereas high power led to a pronounced increase in the oxygen content over time and resulted in a wide range of carbon-oxygen functionalities in the aged material. As the initial compositions/plasma deposition conditions thus influenced the oxidative postdeposition reactions, MMA plasma polymers deposited under different conditions not only varied in their initial composition but then became even more diverse as they aged. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Polybenzyl has been complexed with the chromium tricarbonyl moiety by thermal treatment with chromium hexacarbonyl. The aryl rings of the product were complexed with the chromium tricarbonyl moiety to the extent of 41-63%. Assessment of the degree of complexation was satisfactorily carried out by elemental chromium analysis or by 13C-NMR methods which agreed within 5%. GPC was less satisfactory. TGA analysis of the complexed polymers suggested the possibility of cross-linking on thermal treatment. The benzylic groups of the polymer complex were methylated with base and methyl iodide in up to 88% of the complexed arene activated methylene groups. © 1992 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Random number methods are used to calculate helix - coil transition curves for the model of a heterogeneous polypeptide of random sequence. These curves are compared with several other calculations. The random number computations confirm the exact calculation of Lehman; among the several approximate calculations examined only that of Fixman and Zeroka agrees closely with results of the random number method over the whole range of conditions considered. Calculations are also reported of the average length of helix and coil sections in a heterogeneous molecule of random sequence which is undergoing the helix-coil transition.

    Notes: The melting transition of DNA in alkaline CsCl can be followed in the analytical ultracentrifuge. Equilibrium partially denatured states can be observed. These partially denatured DNA bands have bandwidths of up to several times those of native DNA. Less stable molecules melt early and are found at heavier densities in the melting region.An idealized ultracentrifuge melting transition is described. The melting transition of singly nicked PM-2 DNA resembles the idealized curve. The DNA profile is a Gaussian band at all points in the melt. DNA's from mouse, D. Melanogaster, M. lysodeikticus, T4, and T7 also show equilibrium bands at partially denatured densities, some of which are highly asymmetric. Simple sequence satellite DNA shows an all-or-none transition with no equilibrium bands at partially denatured densities.The temperature at which a DNA denatures is an increasing function of the (G + C) content of the DNA. The Tm does not show a molecular-weight dependence in the range 1.2 × 106-1.5 × 107 daltons (single strand) for mouse, M. lysodeikticus, or T4 DNA. The mouse DNA partially denatured bands do not change shape as a function of molecular weight. The T4 DNA intermediate band develops a late-melting tail at low molecular weight. M. lysodeikticus DNA bands at partially denatured densities become broader as the molecular weight is decreased. Mouse DNA is resolved into six Gaussian components at each point in the melting transition.

    Notes: A method is described for visualizing ribosomal RNA in the electron microscope by an adsorption technique. The visual configuration of the molecules is sensitive to the composition of the medium from which they are adsorbed, and is reproducible under a given set of conditions. Regular structural features occur in the larger rRNA species similar to those observed with protein monolayer techniques. The dimensions of adsorbed molecules, however, are more consistent with current models of ribosomal RNA as it exists in solution.
