Long-range electronic connection in picket-fence like ferrocene–porphyrin derivatives

2012

The effects of a direct connection between ferrocene and porphyrin units have been thoroughly investigated by electrochemical and spectroscopic methods. These data not only reveal that substitution of the porphyrin macrocycle by one, two, three or four ferrocenyl groups strongly affects the electronic properties of the porphyrin and ferrocenyl moieties, they also clearly demonstrate that the metallocene centres are "connected" through the porphyrin-based electronic network. The dynamic properties of selected ferrocene-porphyrin conjugates have been investigated by VT NMR and metadynamic calculations. 1,3-Dithiolanyl protecting groups have been introduced on the upper rings of the ferrocene …

Catalytic activity of biscobalt porphyrin-corrole dyads toward the reduction of dioxygen

2009

A series of biscobalt cofacial porphyrin-corrole dyads bearing mesityl substituents at the meso positions of the corrole ring were investigated as to their electrochemistry, spectroelectrochemistry, and CO binding properties in nonaqueous media and then applied to the surface of a graphite electrode and tested as electrocatalysts for the reduction of dioxygen to water or hydrogen peroxide in air-saturated aqueous solutions containing 1 M HClO(4). The catalytic reduction of O(2) with the same dyads was also investigated in the homogeneous phase using 1,1'-dimethylferrocene as a reductant in PhCN containing HClO(4). The examined compounds are represented as (PMes(2)CY)Co(2), where P = a porph…

Reactivity of di-n-butyl-dicyclopentadienylzirconium towards amido stabilized stannylenes

2009

Abstract Reaction of Sn[(N(C 6 H 3 i Pr 2 -2,6)(SiMe 3 )] 2 and [{Sn(N(C 6 H 3 i Pr 2 -2,6)(SiMe 3 )(μ-Cl) 2 ] with di- n -butyl-dicyclopentadienylzirconium yielded the trimetallic a carbene-like complex {[(N(C 6 H 3 i Pr 2 -2,6)(SiMe 3 )]( n -Bu)Sn} 2 Cp 2 Zr. The oxidation of {[(N(C 6 H 3 i Pr 2 -2,6)(SiMe 3 )]( n -Bu)Sn} 2 Cp 2 Zr by oxygen gives the five-membered dioxadistannazirconacyclic complex {[(N(C 6 H 3 i Pr 2 -2,6)(SiMe 3 )]( n -Bu)Sn} 2 O 2 Cp 2 Zr.

A delamination test for structural wood adhesives used in thick joints

2001

A test method was developed for the measurement of delamination of structural wood adhesives applied in thick joints. Large differences were observed within a range of 8 commercial epoxy-based products.

Curve Numbers Seasonal Variation in Mid-Mediterranean Area

2018

AbstractThe curve number (CN) method is a popular technique for estimating a rainstorm event’s direct runoff (Q from its storm depth P). It relies on the parameter CN, a lumped expression of a wate...

Bathymetric estimation using MERIS images in coastal sea waters.

2007

Bathymetric estimation using remote sensing images has previously been applied to high spatial resolution imagery such as CASI, Ikonos, or SPOT but not on medium spatial resolution images (i.e., MERIS). This choice can be justified when there is a need to map the bathymetry on large areas. In this letter, we present the results of the bathymetry estimation over a large known area, the Gulf of Lion (France), expanding over 270times180 km

Derivation of global vegetation biophysical parameters from EUMETSAT Polar System

2020

Abstract This paper presents the algorithm developed in LSA-SAF (Satellite Application Facility for Land Surface Analysis) for the derivation of global vegetation parameters from the AVHRR (Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer) sensor on board MetOp (Meteorological–Operational) satellites forming the EUMETSAT (European Organization for the Exploitation of Meteorological Satellites) Polar System (EPS). The suite of LSA-SAF EPS vegetation products includes the leaf area index (LAI), the fractional vegetation cover (FVC), and the fraction of absorbed photosynthetically active radiation (FAPAR). LAI, FAPAR, and FVC characterize the structure and the functioning of vegetation and are key par…

A 3-Year Sample of Almost 1,600 Elves Recorded Above South America by the Pierre Auger Cosmic-Ray Observatory

2020

The time and location of the 1,598 verified and reconstructed elves, used for the analysis showcased in this paper, are publicly available on the website of the Pierre Auger Observatory (https://www.auger.org/ index.php/science/data). We wish to thank the World Wide Lightning Location Network (http://wwlln.net), a collaboration among over 50 universities and institutions, for providing the lightning location data used in this paper. We acknowledge Robert Marshall for providing one of the most advanced elve simulations to the public, a key tool in understanding the elves observed by the Pierre Auger Observatory. The successful installation, commissioning, and operation of the Pierre Auger Ob…
