The Sebaou river valley (SRV) is located in the northern Tell region of Algeria, and is a significant source of ground and surface waters because of its geographical context within the northern Algerian Tell region. The water resources from the study area are important for both local people and environmental scientists since the area is undergoing significant industrial development. Therefore a quantitative and qualitative study of the surface and groundwater can help us to establish the current physico-chemical variables of the water resources, allowing comparisons with future studies. In this study we present the most comprehensive survey of the hydrogeological properties of this region reported to date, including the spatio-temporal variation of physico-chemical variables as studied by principal component analysis. This method allowed us to confirm the principal chemical facies and to differentiate the waters of the middle and upper Sebaou river from the waters of river tributaries, specifically the Aissi and Bougdoura rivers. The quality of these water resources is declining as a result of local development and so this study is expected to provide a valuable resource for future water management strategies in the region.

We report the first example of a μ-η¹:η¹-N₂ dinuclear Ru^II complex with a polyamine ligand and elucidate the structure by means of X-ray analysis. The N=N stretching vibration has been observed at 1994 cm^-1 by Raman spectroscopy, which is the lowest value of all the known N₂-coordinated RuII complexes. This low value strongly suggests the N=N bond is primed for activation.

We report the first example of a wholly inorganic mimic of a part of the FeMoco active centre of nitrogenases. We detail the synthesis, characterisation and reactivity of two related, transient hydride-containing inorganic clusters, a dihydride complex and a vinyl monohydride complex, which bear the [Fe₂MoOS₃] portion of FeMoco. The dihydride complex is capable of reducing acetylene to ethylene via the vinyl monohydride complex. In the reaction cycle, a transient low-valent complex was generated by the reductive elimination of H₂ or ethylene from dihydride or vinyl monohydride complexes, respectively.

Herein, we report a [NiRu] biomimetic system for O ₂-tolerant [NiFe]hydrogenases and demonstrate that electron donation to the [NiRu] center can switch the system between the activation of H ₂ and O ₂ through simple ligand effects by using hexamethylbenzene and pentamethylcyclopentadienyl ligands, respectively. Furthermore, we present the synthesis and direct observations of a [NiRu]-peroxo species, which was formed by the oxygenation of a Ni-SIa model [NiRu] complex, that we propose as a biomimetic analogue of O ₂-bound species (OBS) of O ₂-tolerant [NiFe]hydrogenases. The [NiRu]-peroxo complex was fully characterized by X-ray analysis, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), mass spectrometry, and ¹H NMR spectroscopy. The OBS analogue was capable of oxidizing p-hydroquinone and sodium borohydride to turn back into the Ni-SIa model complex.

This review discusses the development of aqueous phase, homogeneous, transfer hydrogenation catalysis. Transfer hydrogenation catalysts, based on Ru, Ir and Rh, reduce organic substrates in water by assisting the transfer of hydrogen from simple donor species. These catalysts are expected to have significant benefits when compared with organic phase catalysts, including greater activity, greater selectivity and smaller environmental impact. They will therefore be expected to make a significant contribution to homogeneous catalysis and 'green chemistry'. Here, we comprehensively examine these catalysts, paying special attention to structural features.

A benzocrown-appended lanthanum(III) porphyrin double decker has been synthesized which is capable of binding simple K⁺ in a cooperative, allosteric fashion to form a 1:4 complex. Analysis of this system by means of the Hill equation gave an overall binding constant (K_b) of 1.0 × 10¹⁴ (mol dm^-3)^-4 and a Hill coefficient of 4.0. This same system, however, binds Na⁺ in a conventional, linear fashion. These results indicate that the novel allosteric binding occurs as the result of 1:2 sandwich complexes between K⁺ and appended crown ether moieties of the two joined porphyrins. The suitability of lanthanum(III) over cerium(IV) for preparing this highly crowded double decker porphyrin is also noted.

Examples of chemical systems capable of templating and catalysing their own synthesis - self-replicating systems -have begun to appear in the chemical literature over the last 15 years. For the biologist, these systems represent a link with the origin of life - their study can shed light on prebiotic chemical evolution. However, for the synthetic chemist, they represent the ultimate synthetic machine, capable of templating the production of a large number of perfect copies of themselves from a single original molecule. In this Review, we describe the design and synthesis of synthetic minimal replicating systems and provide a general overview and critique of the field.

This article is concerned with the incorporation of cooperative molecular recognition and metal ion coordination in the design of selective sensors that signal binding events through their optical properties. Sensors that rely on non-specific hydrophobic effects are first considered before looking at the use of specific, directed intermolecular interactions to achieve greater specificity and chiral discrimination. The natural development of the same design concepts to produce catalysts and actuating devices with similar discriminatory abilities is also discussed.

Cerium(IV) double decker porphyrins bearing one-to-four pairs of 4-pyridyl groups (3a, 3a′, 3bp, 3bd, 3c, and 3d) were synthesized from tetraarylporphyrins bearing mono-, bis-, tris-, and tetrakis(4-pyridyl) groups. In 3b bearing two pairs of 4-pyridyl groups, there exist two isomers in which the 4-pyridyl groups are either proximal or distal (3bp and 3bd, respectively). In a mixed solvent of dichloromethane: ethyl acetate (30:1 v/v), 3a′ bearing one pair of 4-pyridyl groups and three pairs of phenyl groups did not interact with any dicarboxylic acids whereas 3d bearing four pairs of 4-pyridyl groups interacted only with dicarboxylic acid guests with a dimethylene spacer [e.g., BOC-L-aspartic acid (L-4) and (1R,2R)-cyclohexane-1,2-dicarboxylic acid ((1R,2R)-5)]. Interestingly, the complexation process monitored by CD spectroscopy showed a positive homotropic allosterism which satisfied the Hill equation giving constants K = 2.63×1011M-4 and n = 3.9 for L-4 and K = 2.75×109 M-4 and n = 4.0 for (1R,2R)-5. The continuous variation plots (Job plots) also supported the formation of the 1:4 3d/dicarboxylic acid guest complexes. The results consistently indicate that four pairs of 4-pyridyl groups in 3d allosterically bind these guests. In 3d, the two porphyrin rings can still rotate, but once the rotation is suppressed by the first guest binding, the subsequent binding of the second, third and fourth guests can occur cooperatively. This is the origin of the present positive homotoropic allosterism. A similar positive homotropic allosterism was also observed for 3bp and 3bd with n = 1.5 and 1.7, respectively and 3c with n = 3.0. The X-ray crystallographic study of the 3d·[(1R,2R)-5]4 complex showed that the two porphyrin planes are warped outward to relax the electrostatic repulsion and chirally twisted. The two carboxylic acid groups form intermolecular hydrogen bonds (but not intramolecular bridge-type hydrogen bonds) with the pyridyl groups because of the close packing effect of rigid host 3d and rigid guest (1R,2R)-5. In conclusion, this is a rare example of positive homotropic allosterism in an artificial system which is frequently seen in nature where the biological events must be efficiently regulated in response to signals.

A cerium(IV) double decker porphyrin 2 bearing two pairs of 4-pyridyl groups and two pairs of 3,5-dimethoxyphenyl groups was synthesized. In the presence of chiral dicarboxylic acid guests with a two carbon spacer [e.g., (1R,2R)-cyclohexane-1,2-dicarboxylic acid and Boc-L-aspartic acid] 2 gave a CD-active species. The plots of the CD intensity vs. the guest concentration showed a sigmoidal curvature, a sign of homotropic, positive allosterism. Analysis according to the Hill equation indicated that the guests were bound autoacceleratively. Even after the chiral guests were removed by the addition of excess pyridine, 2 remained CD-active because of its inherent chirality. Thereafter, the CD intensity decreased very slowly as a result of internal rotation of the porphyrin subunits. Thermodynamic analysis of this racemization process gave ΔG^‡ ₂₉₈ = 23.0 kcal mol^-1, ΔH^‡ ₂₉₈ = 18.1 kcal mol^-1 and ΔS^‡ ₂₉₈ = -16.4 cal mol^-1 K^-1. Observations and calculations indicate that the chiral memory can be preserved for 3 days at 0°C and for one year at -37°C. In conclusion, this is a rare artificial system for which a homotropic, positive allosterism is observable and in which the guest chirality is transcribed and stored.

The rational design of systems which are capable of accelerating and/or controlling the stereochemical outcome of the Diels-Alder cycloaddition reaction between a furan and a maleimide is presented. The origins of the acceleration and control of the cycloaddition reactions are traced by kinetic studies - allied to molecular mechanics calculations - to the formation of complexes in which the dienes and the dieneophiles are placed in the appropriate arrangements for reaction, and, more importantly, to the formation of intramolecular hydrogen bonds in the cycloadducts.

Despite its many problems, YouTube has become a useful educational tool, with videos explaining almost any topic you can choose. For educators, YouTube has the potential to reach an international audience and provide quality tuition to anyone with an internet connection, anywhere, at any time. However, the sheer number of videos on YouTube mean that it is far more likely videos will disappear with a disappointing number of views, no matter how well taught they are. This talk will discuss the many difficulties of using YouTube as an educational medium but show how, with some research, thought, and creativity, it can be used to reach out across the world.
