Abstract
Time-resolved structural studies of proteins have undergone several significant developments during the last decade. Recent developments using time-resolved X-ray methods, such as time-resolved Laue diffraction, low-temperature intermediate trapping, time-resolved wide-angle X-ray scattering and time-resolved X-ray absorption spectroscopy, are reviewed. Proteins undergo conformational changes during their biological function. As such, a high-resolution structure of a protein’s resting conformation provides a starting point for elucidating its reaction mechanism, but provides no direct information concerning the protein’s conformational dynamics. Several X-ray methods have been developed to elucidate those conformational changes that occur during a protein’s reaction, including time-resolved Laue diffraction and intermediate trapping studies on three-dimensional protein crystals, and time-resolved wide-angle X-ray scattering and X-ray absorption studies on proteins in the solution phase. This review emphasizes the scope and limitations of these complementary experimental approaches when seeking to understand protein conformational dynamics. These methods are illustrated using a limited set of examples including myoglobin and haemoglobin in complex with carbon monoxide, the simple light-driven proton pump bacteriorhodopsin, and the superoxide scavenger superoxide reductase. In conclusion, likely future developments of these methods at synchrotron X-ray sources and the potential impact of emerging X-ray free-electron laser facilities are speculated upon.

Abstract
The reactivity of Ag(II)F2 towards a variety of organic compounds of a high degree of fluorination has been investigated. AgF2 readily fluorinates P(C6F5)3 to PF2(C6F5)3, and attacks the isothiocyanate functional group, -NCS, yielding Ag2S. Perfluorinated aliphatic nitriles resist the action of AgF2, but aromatic C6F5CN undergoes a radical-initiated oligomerization; byproducts include C6F6CN• and C6F5N2• (after intramolecular rearrangement following the bimolecular reaction). AgF2 oxidizes higher fluorosulfonic acids (C4F9SO3H, C8F17SO3H) at or close to the room temperature and triflic acid (CF3SO3H) at its boiling point to the corresponding peroxides. CF3COOH and CF3CONH2 are also decomposed in redox reactions, but the gaseous products have not been identified. Surprisingly, AgF2 is kinetically inert to perfluorinated aromatic hydrocarbons and to CCl4, but it decomposes CBr4 with vigorous elimination of Br2. CI4 decomposes explosively in the presence of AgF2. C6F5OH and CF3COOH are readily oxidized with AgF2 but, surprisingly, t-C4F9OH is kinetically resistant under similar conditions. Coordination complexes of perfluorinated aza and oxa Lewis bases (including perfluorinated 15-crown-5 ether) and AgF2 are not formed under the experimental conditions.
