Abstract
Over the last few years, we have studied the Hemiesters of Carbonic Acid (HECAs) spontaneously formed in aqueous medium by reacting HCO3-/CO2 and a compound having at least one hydroxyl group. In a previous FAPESP project (2012/06642-1), we were able to promote a significant improvement in understanding about this class of compounds. In this new phase, we intend to extend the work in several directions: 1) detection and properties of HECAs in cellular membrane; 2) acidity of alkyl carbonic acids; 3) identification of enzymes that catalyze the formation of HECAs; 4) alkanolamines HECAs in industry and biochemistry, and 5) electrochemical behavior of HECAs. The team is diverse and composed of specialists from Theoretical Chemistry to Biochemistry. The aim is to develop analytical techniques and evidence the importance of this class of compounds for industrial and biochemical processes. (AU)
