Dendrimer-coated magnetic particles for radionuclide separation
Magnetic particles were synthesised for radionuclide removal from nuclear wastes by magnetic separation. Dendrimers with terminal amino groups attached to the particle surface were used to bind chelating groups for lanthanides and actinides. This led to a 50–400-fold increase of the distribution coefficients for europium and americium in comparison to the reference particles without the dendrimers. Back-extraction studies have demonstrated the possibility of multiple particle recycling.
A correlative IR, MS, 1H, 13C and 15N NMR and theoretical study of 4-arylthiazol-2(3H)-onesElectronic supplementary information (ESI) available: NMR data, including graphs; Cartesian coordinates for 3a and 4. See http://www.rsc.org/suppdata/p2/b1/b106322g/
Sixteen 4-arylthiazol-2(3H)-ones (3) were synthesised by cyclisation of α-thiocyanatoacetophenones (1) in acid solution. They appear to prefer greatly the oxo tautomeric forms. In CCl4 solution an equilibrium between the free CO bond and a “dimeric” hydrogen-bonded form exists in which the latter predominates. Several IR and NMR (1H, 13C and 15N) spectral properties are shown to correlate with Hammett σ-values and/or atomic Mulliken charges and bond orders, the latter being estimated by PM3 or AM1 semiempirical methods. The electron-impact mass spectra were also recorded and the fragmentation mechanisms interpreted in terms of the energetics of the ionic species. In addition, the geometric …
