Equilibrium studies in natural waters: Speciation of phenolic compounds in synthetic seawater at different salinities
1995
Interactions between some phenolic compounds and macro-constituents of synthetic seawater (Na{sup +}, K{sup +}, Ca{sup 2+}, Mg{sup 2+}, Cl{sup {minus}}, and SO{sub 4}{sup 2{minus}}), at 20, 35, and 45 {per_thousand} salinity, have been investigated potentiometrically by using the [H]-glass electrode. The formation constants of phenol, o- and p-cresol, o-a dn p-nitrophenol complexes with sodium, potassium, calcium, and magnesium ions have been determined in the ionic strength range 0 {le} I {le} 1 mol/L. A comparison between the apparent protonation constants of phenols determined in synthetic seawater, and those simulated by a suitable complex formation model, is discussed. The possibility …
Determination of the Chiral Couplings L10 and C87 from Semileptonic τ Decays
2008
Using recent precise hadronic tau-decay data on the V-A spectral function, and general properties of QCD such as analyticity, the operator product expansion and chiral perturbation theory, we get accurate values for the QCD chiral order parameters L_10^r(M_rho) and C_87^r(M_rho). These two low-energy constants appear at order p^4 and p^6, respectively, in the chiral perturbation theory expansion of the V-A correlator. At order p^4 we obtain L_10^r(M_rho) = -(5.22\pm 0.06)10^{-3}. Including in the analysis the two-loop (order p^6) contributions, we get L_10^r(M_rho) = -(4.06\pm 0.39)10^{-3} and C_87^r(M_rho) = (4.89\pm 0.19)10^{-3}GeV^{-2}. In the SU(2) chiral effective theory, the correspon…
Multiregression Analysis of the Kinetic Constants in Ephemeral Rivers: The Case Study of the Oreto River
2018
Profuse efforts have been committed to develop efficient tools to measure the ecological status of the receiving water body quality state. The recurrence to mathematical models as support tools for the receiving water body quality assessment can be an optimal choice. Indeed, mathematical models can allow to build-up the cause effect relationship between polluting sources and receiving water quality. Regarding the river water quality modelling, two different kinds of river can be single out: large and small rivers. In the modelling approach, the main differences between the two types of river are reflected in the model kinetic constants. Indeed, the main quality processes which control and g…
Mono- and polynuclear hydroxo complexes of monophenylthallium(III)
1974
Summary The hydrolysis of PhTl(OH)ClO4 has been studied in a medium 0.3 M in NaClO4 by a potentiometric technique. The complexes formed by the hydrolysis reactions together with their formation constants have been determined by the general minimizing computer programme LETAGROP. The hydrolysis species observed in the pH range 3–5 are the mononuclear [(PhTlOH)(OH)], the dinuclear [(PhTlOH)2(OH)]+ and the dimer [(PhTlOH)2(OH)2]. The formation constants are log *β11=−4.92±0.2, log *β21=−1.52±0.03 and log *β22=−6.11±0.05. Stepwise reactions are then postulated whose formation constants are respectively log (*β21/*β11)=3.40±0.25, log (*β22/*β21)=−4.59±0.08 and log (*β22/*β112)=3.73±0.09.
Probing the low-temperature chemistry of ethanol via the addition of dimethyl ether
2018
Considering the importance of ethanol (EtOH) as an engine fuel and a key component of surrogate fuels, the further understanding of its auto-ignition and oxidation characteristics at engine-relevant conditions (high pressures and low temperatures) is still necessary. However, it remains difficult to measure ignition delay times for ethanol at temperatures below 850 K with currently available facilities including shock tube and rapid compression machine due to its low reactivity. Considering the success of our recent study of toluene oxidation under similar conditions [38], dimethyl ether (DME) has been selected as a radical initiator to explore the low-temperature reactivity of ethanol. In …

Complexes of organometallic compounds. XXXVIII. Anion Exchange Studies on the Trimethyllead (IV) Thiocyanate aqueous complex system
1974
The distribution of Me3PbIV between the anion exchange resin Dowex 1 X 8 and aqueous solutions of NaSCN and KSCN was investigated. In the aqueous phase, up to 3 M thiocyanate concentration, only the formation of the neutral species Me3PbNCS was detected and the related stability constant evaluated. Evidence of formation into the resin phase of the anionic Me3Pb(NCS) species was obtained.
Phenolate complexes of iron(III) in dimethylsulphoxide solution
1984
The formation of complexes between Fe3+ and 2,4-dinitrophenol, 4-nitrophenol and 4-methylphenol is studied in dimethylsulphoxide solution. The reaction proceeds almost to completion and the occurrence, in solution, of complexes with higher stoichiometry than 1∶1 is reported for the first time. The following stability constants are determined (25 °C, 0.1 M KClO4): FeIII-2,4-dinitrophenolate β1=1.8×103, β2=4.4×105; FeIII-4-nitrophenolate β1=1.10×107, β2=2.5×1012 β3=3.9×1016; FeIII-4-methylphenolate β=1.7×1012.
Tungsten(VI) complexes formed in an excess of gluconic acid: A polarimetric and spectrophotometric study
1985
The tungsten(VI)-gluconic acid system in an excess of this organic reagent has been spectroscopically and polarimetrically studied and four species, two mononuclear with stoichiometry 1∶2 (metal∶ligand) and two dinuclear with composition 2∶2, have been identified. The non-formation of a binuclear species with stoichiometry 2∶1 (metal∶ligand) demonstrates some preference towards coordination of carboxylate group.
High-resolution FTIR spectra analysis of sulfur dioxide isotopologues
2019
In this thesis we considered the spectral properties of the sulfur dioxide. The experimental FTIR spectra of numerous sulfur dioxide isotopologues, 32S16O2, 34S16O2, 32S18O2 and 32S16O18O, were first recorded in the regions of fundamental, «hot», combination and overtone bands. The wide variability of the experimental conditions gave possibility to observe and identify for the first time transitions be¬ longing to the following of ro-vibrational bands: 3v2, 3v2 - v2, 2v2 - v2 bands of 32S16O2; 2v2 - v2 band of 34S16O2; v1 + v2, v2 + v3, v1 + v3, 2v1, 2v3 bands of 32S18O2; v1, v3, 2v1, v1 + v3, 2v3 bands of 32S16O18O. The inverse spectroscopic problems were solved for the studied states with…
