Notable effects of the metal salts on the formation and decay reactions of α-tocopheroxyl radical in acetonitrile solution. The complex formation between α-tocopheroxyl and metal cations.
The measurement of the UV-vis absorption spectrum of α-tocopheroxyl (α-Toc(•)) radical was performed by reacting aroxyl (ArO(•)) radical with α-tocopherol (α-TocH) in acetonitrile solution including four kinds of alkali and alkaline earth metal salts (MX or MX(2)) (LiClO(4), LiI, NaClO(4), and Mg(ClO(4))(2)), using stopped-flow spectrophotometry. The maximum wavelength (λ(max)) of the absorption spectrum of the α-Toc(•) at 425.0 nm increased with increasing concentration of metal salts (0-0.500 M) in acetonitrile, and it approached constant values, suggesting an [α-Toc(•)-M(+) (or M(2+))] complex formation. The stability constants (K) were determined to be 9.2, 2.8, and 45 M(-1) for LiClO(4), NaClO(4), and Mg(ClO(4))(2), respectively. By reacting ArO(•) with α-TocH in acetonitrile, the absorption of ArO(•) disappeared rapidly, while that of α-Toc(•) appeared and then decreased gradually as a result of the bimolecular self-reaction of α-Toc(•) after passing through the maximum. The second-order rate constants (k(s)) obtained for the reaction of α-TocH with ArO(•) increased linearly with an increasing concentration of metal salts. The results indicate that the hydrogen transfer reaction of α-TocH proceeds via an electron transfer intermediate from α-TocH to ArO(•) radicals followed by proton transfer. Both the coordination of metal cations to the one-electron reduced anions of ArO(•) (ArO:(-)) and the coordination of counteranions to the one-electron oxidized cations of α-TocH (α-TocH(•)(+)) may stabilize the intermediate, resulting in the acceleration of electron transfer. A remarkable effect of metal salts on the rate of bimolecular self-reaction (2k(d)) of the α-Toc(•) radical was also observed. The rate constant (2k(d)) decreased rapidly with increasing concentrations of the metal salts. The 2k(d) value decreased at the same concentration of the metal salts in the following order: no metal salt > NaClO(4) > LiClO(4) > Mg(ClO(4))(2). The complex formation between α-Toc(•) and metal cations may stabilize the energy level of the reactants (α-Toc(•) + α-Toc(•)), resulting in the decrease of the rate constant (2k(d)). The alkali and alkaline earth metal salts having a smaller ionic radius of cation and a larger charge of cation gave larger K and k(s) values and a smaller 2k(d) value.

Infrared (attenuated total reflection) study of propylene carbonate solutions containing lithium and sodium perchlorate.
Attenuated total reflection infrared spectroscopy was used to examine the concentration dependent solvation of LiClO4 and NaClO4 electrolytes in propylene carbonate (PC). Factor analysis and curve fitting techniques were performed on the measured spectra and the results compared with ab initio computations to provide evidence for ion-solvent solution geometries. Factor analysis of the measured data allowed the identification of the spectrum of ion-associated PC that is uniquely different from the self-associated PC spectrum. The results indicate Li+ and ClO4- ions are contact ion-paired even at relatively low electrolyte concentrations whereas Na+ and ClO4- ions are not, up to approximately 2 mol dm-3.

Solvation of LiClO4 and NaClO4 in deuterated acetonitrile studied by means of infrared and Raman spectroscopy.
Vibrational characteristics of CD3CN solutions of LiClO4 and NaClO4 have been studied by means of infrared and Raman spectroscopy. Blue shifts of 22 and 11 cm(-1) of the v2 C[triple bond]N stretch are observed resulting from interaction of CD3CN with Li+ and Na+, respectively. The number of primary solvation sites of both Li+ and Na+ in acetonitrile is believed to be four from the comparison of the Raman intensities of the C[triple bond]N stretch for free CD3CN and those coordinated to Li+ and Na+. Evidently formation of contact ion pairs of the cation (Li+ or Na+) and anion (ClO4-) is more probable at a higher concentration of the salt. The characteristics of the v2 C[triple bond]N stretch, v4 C-C stretch, and v8 CCN deformation bands vary substantially upon coordination, while other vibrational bands are relatively immune to the donor-acceptor interaction. DFT calculations have also been performed at the BLYP/6-31 + G(2d,p) level to examine the structures and vibrational characteristics of CD3CN coordinated to Li+ and Na+. The calculated results are in good agreement with the observed vibrational characteristics.

Platination of the (T2G4)4 telomeric sequence: a structural and cross-linking study.
The telomeric sequence (T(2)G(4))(4) was platinated in aqueous solutions containing 50 mM LiClO(4), NaClO(4), or KClO(4). The identification of the guanines which reacted with [Pt(NH(3))(3)(H(2)O)](2+) revealed that the same type of folding exists in the presence of the three cations and that the latter determine the relative stabilities of the G-quadruplex structures in the order K(+) > Na(+) >> Li(+). The tri-ammine complex yielded ca. 40--90% of adducts, mono- and poly-platinated, bound to 4 guanines out of the 16 guanines in the sequence, in the decreasing amounts G9 > G15 >> G3 > G21. The formation of these adducts was interpreted with a G-quadruplex structure obtained by restrained molecular dynamics (rMD) simulations which confirms the schematic model proposed by Williamson et al. [(1989) Cell 59, 871--880]. The bifunctional complexes cis- and trans-[Pt(NH(3))(2)(H(2)O)(2)](2+) also first reacted with G9 and G15 and gave cross-linked adducts between two guanines, which did not exceed 5% each of the products formed. Both the cis and trans isomers formed a G3-G15 platinum chelate, and the second also formed bis-chelates at both ends of the G-quadruplex structure: G3-G15/G9-G21 and G3-G15/G9-G24. The rMD simulations showed that the cross-linking reactions by the trans complex can occur without disturbing the stacking of the three G-quartets.

Perchlorate-induced denaturation of ribonuclease A: investigation of possible folding intermediates.
Perchlorate-denatured ribonuclease A (PDR) is known to show a circular dichroism (CD) spectrum suggestive of substantial secondary structure. Thus, PDR may be a molten globule form of ribonuclease A. We find that any secondary structure present in PDR does not provide measurable protection against amide proton exchange, and PDR does not belong to the class of structured molten globules. CD spectra of short peptides show that the perchlorate anion affects these spectra in a way that could be mistaken for secondary structure formation; thus, caution must be used in interpreting CD spectra of peptides and proteins taken in perchlorate solutions.
