1. High Valent Metal Oxo Complexes as Oxidation Catalysts
Sammanfattning : A series of new dioxomolybdenum(VI) and -tungsten(VI) complexes of tripodal tetradentate and tridentate amino bis- and monophenolate ligands have been synthesized and characterized. The majority of the complexes are mononuclear, but dimeric and trimeric oxo-bridged M(VI) (M = Mo, W) were also obtained. LÄS MER
2. Development of Biomimetic Catalytic Systems for Selective Oxidations with H2O2 and O2
Sammanfattning : Four different catalytic systems were studied for biomimetic coupled oxidations using H2O2 or O2. In the first example, osmium tetroxide works as a substrate-selective catalyst for dihydroxylation of olefins. Electron transfer to H2O2 is facilitated by electron transfer mediators (ETMs). LÄS MER
3. The conserved methionines in the chloroplast small heat shock protein - Role in chaperone-substrate interactions and effects of methionine sulfoxidation on chaperone activity
Sammanfattning : The chloroplast-localized small heat shock protein (sHsp) Hsp21 belongs to the family of alpha-crystallin like sHsps which form large oligomeric structures and protect partly unfolded aggregation-prone proteins against aggregation. The main focus for this thesis has been on the highly conserved methionines in Hsp21. LÄS MER
4. Flavins as Biomimetic Catalysts for Sulfoxidation by H2O2 : Catalyst Immobilization in Ionic Liquid for H2O2 Oxidations
Sammanfattning : This thesis deals with the development of catalytic oxidation reactions utilizing hydrogen peroxide as terminal oxidant. The main focus has been to find flavin catalysts that are easy to handle and stable to store but still able to perform the desired reaction. LÄS MER
5. A Chloroplast Localized Small Heat Shock Protein, Hsp21. Importance of Hsp21 in stress protection of transgenic Arabidopsis thaliana, recombinant expression and characterization of oxidation-dependent conformational changes
Sammanfattning : A specific group of heat shock proteins, the so called small heat shock proteins (sHsps), exists in all organisms but are especially abundant in plants. The sHsps prevent aggregation of other proteins (substrate proteins) during transient heat and oxidative stress. LÄS MER
