Abstract

Vital cellular processes depend on the controlled transport of metal ions across biological membranes. A biological membrane is a complex system consisting of lipids and proteins, that is why simplified systems, in particular monomolecular layers, are used to model it.
This work presents the results of a study of the interaction of zinc ions from the aqueous subphase with the Langmuir monolayer of arachidic acid. The study was carried out for the first time and used total external reflection X-ray absorption spectroscopy. It considers the influence of the concentration of a ZnCl₂ aqueous subphase solution on the local environment of zinc ions when interacting with the lipid monolayer immediately after its formation.
The theoretical analysis of experimental XANES spectra showed that one of the interaction ways of arachidic acid molecules with zinc ions immediately after the monolayer formation is an intramolecular interaction with the formation of spodium bonds between the zinc cation and the OH carboxyl group of arachidic acid
