Field-cooling experiments on the quadrupolar-glass state of (KBr)0.47(KCN)0.53
1990
The shear strain of a mixed cyanide crystal has been measured under field-cooling conditions. The time decay after field removal follows a Kohlrausch-Williams-Watts law. The results are analogous to spin glasses, except that residual permanent strains can be frozen-in.
The role of inner counterions within PB films during electrochemical processes
1999
Abstract The shape of voltammograms of Prussian Blue films (ferric ferrocyanide, PB) deposited on ITO (indium–tin oxide) electrodes in aqueous KCl, CsCl and NH 4 Cl solutions has been studied. These results proved a double role of countercations during these electrochemical processes. Countercations can either be only retained within the zeolitic pores of the PB structure forming part of their inner solution, or can also form part of the crystalline structure of PB films by replacing some iron sites. The different electrochemical behaviour of PB films in the three studied solutions (KCl, CsCl and NH 4 Cl) is analysed from this point of view.
Electronic Perspective on the Electrochemistry of Prussian Blue Films
2009
The derivative of the voltabsommetric scans, together with previous nano-electrogravimetric and X-ray diffraction results, allow different electrochemical processes to be distinguished during the Prussian blue (PB) voltammetric scan. Potassium, proton, and hydrated proton counterions involved in PB electrochemistry are related here to the electrochemical reactions of specific Fe sites. Potassium counterions show two different sites for their insertion: one located in the crystalline framework and another in ferrocyanide vacancies. From the monitoring of electroactive Fe sites, the covalent-exchange model is suggested as one of the first approaches to explain the origin of the PB magnetic or…
Bimetallic Cyanide-Bridged Complexes Based on the Photochromic Nitroprusside Anion and Paramagnetic Metal Complexes. Syntheses, Structures, and Physi…
2000
The synthesis, crystal structure, and physical characterization of the coordination compounds [Ni(en)2]4[Fe(CN)5NO]2[Fe(CN)6]x5H2O (1), [Ni(en)2][Fe(CN)5NO]x3H2O (2), [Mn(3-MeOsalen)(H2O)]2[Fe(CN)5NO] (3), and [Mn(5-Brsalen)]2[Fe(CN)5NO] (4) are presented. 1 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2(1)/n (a = 7.407(4) A, b = 28.963(6) A, c = 14.744(5) A, alpha = 90 degrees, beta = 103.26(4) degrees, gamma = 90 degrees, Z = 2). Its structure consists of branched linear chains formed by cis-[Ni(en)2]2+ cations and ferrocyanide and nitroprusside anions. The presence of two kinds of iron(II) sites has been demonstrated by Mossbauer spectroscopy. 2 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group …
Computational Analysis of n→π* Back-Bonding in Metallylene–Isocyanide Complexes R2MCNR′ (M = Si, Ge, Sn; R = tBu, Ph; R′ = Me, tBu, Ph)
2013
A detailed computational investigation of orbital interactions in metal–carbon bonds of metallylene–isocyanide adducts of the type R2MCNR′ (M = Si, Ge, Sn; R, R′ = alkyl, aryl) was performed using density functional theory and different methods based on energy decomposition analysis. Similar analyses have not been carried out before for metal complexes of isocyanides, even though the related carbonyl complexes have been under intense investigations throughout the years. The results of our work reveal that the relative importance of π-type back-bonding interactions in these systems increases in the sequence Sn < Ge ≪ Si, and in contrast to some earlier assumptions, the π-component cannot be …
Oxidative cyclization of aldehyde thiosemicarbazones induced by potassium ferricyanide and by tris(p-bromophenyl)amino hexachloroantimoniate. A joint…
2005
The oxidative ring closure reaction of some aryl-substituted thiosemicarbazones induced by "bona fide" one-electron abstracting agents was investigated, by means of both experimental and computational techniques. The corresponding 1,2,4-triazole derivatives were the only cyclization products observed. The occurrence of two slightly different mechanistic pathways for the reaction is discussed.
The Effect of Light Intensity During Growth of Sinapis alba on the Electron-Transport and the Noncyclic Photophosphorylation
1975
The photosynthetic rate of Sinapis alba can be modified over a wide range by the light intensity during growth. Our present results indicate that there exist regulatory mechanisms in the field of photosynthetic primary reactions. We compared the effect of different light intensities during growth of Sinapis plants on the concentrations of soluble proteins, manganese and lipophilic plastid quinones, the electron flow from water to ferricyanide and noncyclic phosphorylation. We further determined the light dependence curves for the uncoupled electron transport with ferricyanide as electron acceptor and methylammonium-chloride as an uncoupler of photophosphorylation.
Relationship between Auxin-Dependent Proton Extrusion and Plasmalemma Redox System in Maize Coleoptile Segments
1988
Abraded coleoptile segments reduce ferricyanide utilizing endogenous substrates. The kinetics of ferricyanide reduction shows an initial rapid rate followed by a slow rate of reduction. The duration of the initial phase is about 5 minutes. The slow phase is observed for more than 30 minutes. A Lineweaver-Burk plot of the slow phase was linear and revealed maximum velocity of the reaction of 42 nmols ferricyanide reduced/hour*coleoptile segment and an apparent Km (ferri) of 2.25mM.

Aromatic tertiary amines, mostly isoquinoline derivatives and analogous N-heterocycles, are treated with the non-toxic agent (II) under conditions A) or B) to produce the desired N-aminonitrile compounds as amino acid precursors and as building blocks of complex nitrogen heterocycles.
Studies of Nature of Uncommon Bifurcated I–I···(I–M) Metal-Involving Noncovalent Interaction in Palladium(II) and Platinum(II) Isocyanide Cocrystals
2021
Two isostructural trans-[MI2(CNXyl)2]·I2 (M = Pd or Pt; CNXyl = 2,6-dimethylphenyl isocyanide) metallopolymeric cocrystals containing uncommon bifurcated iodine···(metal–iodide) contact were obtained. In addition to classical halogen bonding, single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis revealed a rare type of metal-involved stabilizing contact in both cocrystals. The nature of the noncovalent contact was studied computationally (via DFT, electrostatic surface potential, electron localization function, quantum theory of atoms in molecules, and noncovalent interactions plot methods). Studies confirmed that the I···I halogen bond is the strongest noncovalent interaction in the systems, followed …
