Violurato complexes of nickel(II). Formation equilibria. Deprotonation equilibria of the coordinated ligands and related stereochemical changes
1986
The formation equilibria of nickel(II) violurato-complexes in water and dimethylsulphoxide-water (80∶20) as well as deprotonation of the coordinated ligands and related stereochemical changes are reported. The stability constants of the Ni2+-H2V− complexes logβ1=5.06, Iogβ2=9.38, logβ3=12.98 as well as the acidity constants of the [Ni(H2V)3]− complex, logβj1= 8.37, logβj2=15.76, logβj3=22.37 are determined at 25 °C and 0.1M NaClO4. A new violurato-complex of Ni2+, Na4[Ni(HV)3]5H2O, is isolated and characterized.
Compounds of tungsten(VI) with citric acid: A spectrophotometric, polarimetric and hydrogen-1, carbon-13 N.M.R. study of the formation and interconve…
1986
Tungsten(VI)-citrate complexes, which occur in aqueous solution, were studied by polarimetric and absorbance measurements. The pH of the medium is the principal variable controlling complex formation and interconversion equilibria. At high pH (>6), the stable complexes are monomers with 1∶2 and 1∶1 stoichiometry, depending on the tungsten(VI)-citrate ratio, while at lower pH two different dinuclear complexes are formed. The intervals of existence of these species with the pH, the number of equivalents of acid necessary for their formation, as well as the conditional stability constant, have also been calculated. The structure of these compounds have been investigated by1H and13C-n.m.r. spec…
Complexes of molybdenum(VI) with organic diacid ligands: The molybdenum(VI)-malonic acid system
1983
Malonic acid (C3O4H4) and MoVI form in aqueous solution two dinuclear dioxo-complexes of which the stability is a function of the pH of the medium. Both complexes have a 1∶1 metal-ligand stoichiometric ratio, and the interconversion may involve a structural rearrangement. Conditional dissociation constants have been determined spectrophotometrically. Saline cryoscopy supports the spectrophotometric results. Salts of [Co(en)3]3+ have been isolated. The ligand behaviour of malonic acid differs partially from that observed for α-polyhydroxy ligands.
Oxamidato complexes. Part 4. Electrochemical study of the copper(III)/copper(II) couple in monomeric N,N?-bis(substituent)oxamidatocopper(II) complex…
1993
The electrochemical behaviour of a series of monomeric N,N′-bis(substituent)oxamidato copper(II) complexes of formula Na2[Cu(3,5,3′,5′-X4obbz)]·4H2O [X = Cl (1), Br (2), I (3) and obbz = oxamidobis(benzoato)], Na2-[Cu(obbz)]·4H2O (4), Na2[Cu(5,5′-Me2obbz)]·4H2O (5), Na2[Cu(4,5,4,5′-(MeO)4obbz)]·4H2O(6),Na2[Cu(obp)]· 3.5H2O (7) (obp = oxamidobis(propionato)) and Na2[Cu(pba)]·6H2O (8), [pba = propylenebis(oxamate)] has been investigated by cyclic voltammetry, rotating disk electrode and coulometry in water and dimethylsulphoxide (dmso) solutions. NaNO3 (0.1 M) and n-Bu4NPF6 (0.1 M) were used as supporting electrolytes in H2O and dmso respectively, all solutions being thermostatted at 25 °C. I…

A new colourimetric and fluorimetric method for fluoride determination in aqueous samples based on the specific reaction between fluoride and silica has been developed and applied on real samples.
Oxidative transformation of aryls using molybdenum pentachloride.
2012
Molybdenum pentachloride combines a strong Lewis acid character with an unusually high oxidation potential creating a powerful reagent for oxidative transformations. Since the oxidative coupling reaction of aryls is induced at an extraordinarily high reaction rate, a variety of labile groups, e.g. iodo, tert-alkyl, etc., are tolerated on the aromatic core. Furthermore, the co-formed molybdenum salts can either be exploited for template effects to obtain uncommon geometries in a preferred manner, or redox-play starts after aqueous workup. Therefore MoCl(5) represents a unique and easily available reagent.
In-situ characterisation of organosilane films formation on aluminium alloys by electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance and in-situ ellipsometry
2005
Abstract Organosilane pre-treatments have been studied intensively during the last years in order to replace hexavalent chromium conversion treatments. The aim of this study is to follow in-situ the formation of this organosilane layer in solution. Two in-situ techniques, spectroscopic ellipsometry and electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance, were used to investigate the mechanism and the kinetics of this protective film formation. In-situ measurements highlight that the organosilane film observed after the drying process is not formed into the solution, but during the emersion and drying step. Hence, it has been possible to characterise the presence of a very thin organosilane layer in…
Structural and Vibrational Study of a New Mixed Dipotassium Hydrogenselenate Dihydrogenphosphate K2(HSeO4)1.5 (H2PO4)0.5.
2006
Abstract Ongoing studies of the KHSeO4–KH2PO4 system, aimed at developing novel proton conducting solids, resulted in the new compound K2(HSeO4)1.5(H2PO4)0.5 (dipotassium hydrogenselenate dihydrogenphosphate). The crystals have been prepared by slow evaporation of an aqueous solution at room temperature. The structural properties of the crystals were characterized by X-ray single analysis (performed at room temperature), which revealed that K2(HSeO4)1.5(H2PO4)0.5 (KHSeP) crystallizes in space group P 1 ¯ with lattice parameters: a = 7.417(3) A, b = 7.668(2) A, c = 7.744(5) A, α = 71.59(3)°, β = 87.71(4)° and γ = 86.04(6)°. The compound has a unit cell volume 416.8(3) A3 and two formula unit…
Comparison of global responses to mild deficiency and excess copper levels in Arabidopsis seedlings
2013
[EN] Copper is an essential micronutrient in higher plants, but it is toxic in excess. The fine adjustments required to fit copper nutritional demands for optimal growth are illustrated by the diverse, severe symptoms resulting from copper deficiency and excess. Here, a differential transcriptomic analysis was done between Arabidopsis thaliana plants suffering from mild copper deficiency and those with a slight copper excess. The effects on the genes encoding cuproproteins or copper homeostasis factors were included in a CuAt database, which was organised to collect additional information and connections to other databases. The categories overrepresented under copper deficiency and copper e…
Recovering bronze metallurgy from archaeological artefacts for the production of reference materials in conservation science
2007
The production of reference Cu-based alloys is the first step of an original experimental protocol to be used in the field of conservation and restoration of metal artefacts. The production of these synthetic alloys has a double value. They can be used both as suitable substitutes of unique archaeological pieces for testing new materials and methods for conservation, and as guidelines for contemporary metal production. We report on a research activity focused on the recovery of the ancient production techniques from the investigation of archaeological copper-based artefacts. The chemical, physical and metallurgical characterization of several Cu-based artefacts, found in different Italian a…
