Formation of an unprecedented (CuBr)5 cluster and a zeolite-type 2D-coordination polymer: a surprising halide effect
2013
A unique pentanuclear cluster within a zeolite-type polymer ([Cu5(μ4-Br)(μ3-Br)2(μ2-Br)2](μ2-MeSPr)3)n (1; void space >81%) and a luminescent 1D ([Cu(μ3-I)]4(MeSPr)3)n polymer, 2, are formed when MeSPr reacts with CuBr and CuI.
Determination of Cl/C and Br/C ratios in pure organic solids using laser-induced plasma spectroscopy in near vacuum ultraviolet
2004
Several solid organic compounds containing bromine and chlorine were analyzed with laser-induced plasma spectroscopy. Emission lines were detected in the near vacuum ultraviolet spectral region by using a gas-purged spectrograph and an intensified charge-coupled device detector. The performance of this setup in the determination of the halides in the organic samples was evaluated. Carbon emission lines in the near vacuum ultraviolet were used as internal standards for the measurement of chlorine and bromine. Linear correlation was found between the carbon and halogen emission signal ratio and the corresponding atomic ratio of the compound.
Halogen diffusion in a basaltic melt
2007
Abstract The diffusion of the halogens fluorine, chlorine and bromine was measured in a hawaiitic melt from Mt. Etna at 500 MPa and 1.0 GPa, 1250 to 1450 °C at anhydrous conditions; the diffusion of F and Cl in the melt was also studied with about 3 wt% of dissolved water. Experiments were performed using the diffusion-couple technique in a piston cylinder. Most experiments were performed with only one halogen diffusing between the halogen-enriched and halogen-poor halves of the diffusion couple, but a few experiments with a mixture of halogens (F, Cl and Br) were also performed in order to investigate the possibility of interactions between the halogens during diffusion. Fluorine and chlor…
Direct determination of halogens in powdered geological and environmental samples using isotope dilution laser ablation ICP-MS
2005
Abstract Laser ablation inductively coupled plasma isotope dilution mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-IDMS) with a special laser ablation system for bulk analyses (LINA-Spark™-Atomiser) was applied for direct determinations of chlorine, bromine, and iodine in rock and sediment samples. Special attention was focused on possible inter-halogen fractionations and analyte/spike isotope fractionations by using LA-ICP-MS and LA-ICP-IDMS, respectively. A variation of Br/Cl and I/Cl element intensity ratios by a factor of 1.3–3 was observed when changing the nebulizer gas flow rate in the range of 0.84–1.0 L min−1 and the laser power density in the range of 2–10 GW cm−2, respectively. When using an internal…
OH–π and halogen–π interactions as driving forces in the crystal organisations of tri-bromo and tri-iodo trityl alcohols
2008
The trityl alcohols bearing three bromine or three iodine atoms at the para-positions of the aromatic units, have been known for more than a hundred years. In our case these compounds have been synthesized in one-pot sequence starting from the 1,4-dihalogenobenzenes via mono-lithiation and the successive reaction with diethylcarbonate. The compounds have been crystallized from different solvent mixtures leading to one structure of bromo- (A) and three structures of iodo trityl alcohols (B–D). The inclusion of dichloromethane (C) or benzene (D) in the crystalline lattices has been observed. In all cases the OH–π and halogen–π (and in one case the halogen-halogen and CH-O weak) contacts play …
Mass spectra of halogenated esters: 8. Methyl esters of 2,3-dichloro-, bromochloro- and dibromopropenoic acids
1988
The mass spectral fragmentation of methyl esters of E and Z isomers of 2,3-dichloro-, 2-bromo-3-chloro-, 3-bromo-2-chIoro- and 2,3-dibromopropenoic acids have been investigated. The M+˙ peak is shown with all isomers, the [M − OCH3]+, [M − X]+, [M − OCH3 − CO]+, [M − OCH3 − CO − X]+˙ and [M − OCH3 − CO − X − X]+ ions constituting abundant peaks in all spectra. The results, particularly from the bromochloro isomers, show that a halogen atom is eliminated from the 3- rather than the 2- position and from the Z rather than the E isomer. Bromine as a bulky atom is preferentially lost.
Studies on ultramicro- and trace analysis of organic substances
1965
Summary For the determination of about 1 μg hydrogen in nonvolatile organic compounds 10–40 μg of the substance are burnt at > 1000°C in a slow stream of oxygen. The water generated is converted to H 2 S by reaction with carbon disulfide in a flow of nitrogen at 500°C catalyzed by α-Al 2 O 3 . The hydrogen sulfide is argentimetrically titrated by a potentiometric method. The standard deviation of the method is ± 10 ng H. There are no interferences by N, S, and the halogens.
Oxidative Stress, Induced by Sub-Lethal Doses of BDE 209, Promotes Energy Management and Cell Cycle Modulation in the Marine Fish Cell Line SAF-1
2019
The effects of sub-lethal doses of polybrominated diphenyl ether (PBDE)-209 in terms of toxicity, oxidative stress, and biomarkers were evaluated in the Sparus aurata fibroblast cell line (SAF-1). Vitality and oxidative stress status were studied after incubation with PBDE for 72 h. Concomitantly, the quantification of proteins related to cell cycle and DNA repair (p53), cell proliferation (extracellular signal&ndash
Sub-lethal doses of polybrominated diphenyl ethers affect some biomarkers involved in energy balance and cell cycle, via oxidative stress in the mari…
2019
Abstract Polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) are a class of persistent contaminants which are found all over the world in the marine environment. Sparus aurata fibroblast cell line (SAF-1) was exposed to increasing concentrations of PBDEs 47 and 99, until 72 h to evaluate the cytotoxicity, reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and the expression of some selected molecular markers related to cell cycle, cell signaling, energetic balance and oxidative stress (p53, erk-1, hif-1α and nrf-2), by real-time PCR. Furthermore, SAF-1 cells were exposed for 7 and 15 days to sub-lethal concentrations, in order to evaluate the response of some biomarkers by immunoblotting (p53, ERK-1, AMPK, HIF-1α…
Comparison of the effects of chloral hydrate and trichlorethanol on the EEG of the isolated perfused rat brain.
1973
An isolated perfused rat brain preparation was used to compare the effects of chloral hydrate and its metabolite trichloroethanol on the EEG. The concentrations of chloral hydrate and trichloroethanol in the perfusion medium ranged from 1.5 to 5.5 mM. 5, 10, 15, and 30 min after the beginning of the perfusions EEG-recordings were taken. The recordings were evaluated both by a descriptive method and by a simple quantitative appraoch, counting the waves with an amplitude greater than 50 microvolts and averaging this value for a period of 1 sec. The following results were obtained: Both drugs exhibited CNS depressant activity. Between 5 and 10 min of perfusion the effect of trichloroethanol wa…
