A method proposed for determining water and enediols or thiols is based on consecutive titration of the enediols or thiols by a novel reagent and of water by the conventional Karl Fischer reagent in the same cell. The time for both titrations is 8-20 min. The novel reagent consists of iodine, sodium acetate as a base, and potassium iodide in a nonaqueous solvent system. The method is applicable for quality control of chemical products and drugs during their production and trade.

In this study, we report a novel and efficient fluorescence probe synthesized by Tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane-derived carbon dots (CDs)-modified hexagonal cobalt oxyhydroxide(CoOOH) nanoflakes (Tris-derived CDs-CoOOH) for monitoring of cerebral ascorbic acid (AA) in brain microdialysate. The as-prepared Tris-derived CDs with the fluorescence quantum yield of 7.3% are prepared by a one-step pyrolysis strategy of the sole precursor and used as the signal output.

The maleate isomerase (MI) catalysed isomerization of maleate to fumarate has been investigated using a wide range of computational modelling techniques, including small model DFT calculations, QM-cluster approach, quantum mechanical/molecular mechanical approach (QM/MM in the ONIOM formalism) and molecular dynamics simulations. Several fundamental questions regarding the mechanism were answered in detail, such as the activation and stabilization of the catalytic Cys in a rather hydrophobic active site. The two previously proposed mechanisms were considered, where either enediolate or succinyl-Cys intermediate forms.

Arylmalonate decarboxylase catalyzes the enantioselective decarboxylation of alpha-aryl-alpha-methylmalonate to produce optically pure alpha-arylpropionate. The enzyme is comprised of two alpha/beta domains and contains an active site situated between the two domains. The site is formed by Tyr48, Gly74-Thr75-Ser76, Tyr126, and Cys188-Gly189-Gly190 residues.

The reagents consist of iodine, tetramethylammonium iodide or potassium iodide, base (diethanolamine, triethanolamine, sodium acetate and/or urea) in methanol mixed with N,N-dimethylformamide, or with formamide, or with dimethyl sulfoxide and N,N-dimethylformamide mixture as a solvent.
