The structure of polymeric diaquo-di-μ-hydroxo-bis-μ-(nicotinato-N-oxide)-bis-μ-(nicotinato-N-oxide)tricopper(II)

1981

Abstract The new unusual polymeric copper(II) complex with nicotinate N-oxide (N-nicO), [Cu3(N-nicO)4(OH)2(H2O)2]n was prepared and its crystal and molecular structure was determined from three-dimensional X-ray diffraction data. The crystals belong to the triclinic space group P 1 (No. 2). The cell parameters are a = 7.881(9), b = 9.658(11), c = 10.368(12) A, α = 97.32(9), β = 110.38(9), γ = 109.53(9)°, V = 670(1) A3, dobs = 1.94 (dcalc = 2.02) and Z = 1. The structure was refined to a final R-value of 4.13%. The complex is a polymeric, linear chain along the c-axis, and its structure units are connected with each other through two N-oxide oxygen atoms. There are three copper atoms (Cu1, C…

Spectrophotometric determination of fluoride in fluoride-bearing minerals after decomposition by fusion with sodium hydroxide

1984

The decomposition of highly insoluble minerals (fluorspar and cryolite) by fusion with molten alkali-metal hydroxides is studied. The introduction of additives such as aluminium compounds or sodium peroxide to obtain total liberation of fluoride from calcium fluoride samples, is tested. The fusion is done in a silver crucible with a Bunsen burner. The cooled melt is easily soluble, giving solutions suitable for spectrophotometric fluoride determination by the Zr(IV)-fluoride-Erichrome Cyanine R method.

Lipid hydroperoxides determination in milk‐based infant formulae by gas chromatography

2003

A simple gas chromatograph using a flame ionization detector and a polar capillary column method is proposed for determining hydroperoxides in the lipid fraction of milkbased infant formulas. Tricosanoic acid is used as internal standard. The method includes the following steps: a) the extraction of fat with chloroform/methanol (2:1, v/v), b) the reduction of hydroperoxide acids to hydroxide acids with hydrogen gas and palladium as a catalyst, c) the transmethylation to obtain the methyl esters with acetyl chloride and methanol/ hexane (4:1, v/v), and d) an acetylation with acetic anhydride/ pyridine (4:1, v/v) to obtain an acetoxy derivate of the hydroxide present. Two chromatography runs,…

Characterization of high molecular mass material in ECF and TCF bleaching liquors by Py-GC/MS with and without TMAH methylation

2006

Abstract High molecular weight (HMW) fractions (MW > 1000) of effluents were obtained by ultrafiltration of elemental chlorine-free (ECF) bleaching (O-D-EOP-D-ED) and totally chlorine-free (TCF) bleaching (O-Z-Q-P-Z-Q-P-P) liquors of softwood (Pinus sylvestris) pulp. The fractions were studied by analytical pyrolysis coupled to gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (Py-GC/MS) with and without TMAH (tetramethyl ammonium hydroxide) derivatization. The pyrograms showed a number of pyrolysis products mainly derived from lignin and carbohydrates. The comparison of 4-hydroxyphenyl (H), guaiacyl (G) and syringyl (S) lignin units in both bleaching effluents showed that the G unit content was clearly…

Removal of trivalent chromium from tannery waste waters using bone charcoal

2002

International audience; The ability of bone charcoal to remove Cr(III) from aqueous solutions by adsorption has been investigated. The adsorbent used was first characterised and then the adsorption was studied as a function of time and amount of charcoal. Tests were carried out with synthetic solutions whose Cr concentrations (500 mg L-1) were similar to those found in some effluents of Moroccan tannery industries. Cr removal efficiencies higher than 90% were obtained at pH 3.5 using 3 g of bone charcoal and a stirring time of about 30 min. Results of Cr removal by all sieved fractions of bone charcoal had shown the same interesting capabilities for Cr(III) retention. The cross interference…

Properties of trialkylamines as catalysts of resoles synthesis

2000

A series of the syntheses of phenol–formaldehyde resoles was carried out in the presence of trimethyl-, triethyl-, tripropyl-, and tributylamines and sodium hydroxide as catalysts for this process. The rate constants were calculated for the partial reactions identified in the synthesis. Also, the performance properties of the resins obtained and the hardened resin samples were estimated in simple tests. © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 77: 898–902, 2000

Biological and physico-chemical properties of new root canal sealers

2018

Background The purpose of the present study was to compare the biological and the physico-chemical properties of bioceramic-based root canal sealers, calcium hydroxide-based, MTA-based and epoxy resin-based root canal sealers. Material and methods Two bioceramic-based sealers, one calcium hydroxide-based sealer, one MTA-based sealer and two epoxy resin-based sealers were tested. Results EasySeal and MTA Fillapex showed severe citotoxic activity, AH Plus and SealapexTM moderate cytotoxicity, BioRoot™ RCS and TotalFill BC Sealer were both cytocompatible. Except for TotalFill BC Sealer, all root canal sealers caused inhibition zones when tested with E. faecalis. The highest inhibition zone was…

Calculation of proton activity in aqueous protolyte solutions

1980

Abstract A general and thermodynamically exact equation for the calculation of the proton (hydroxide ion) activity of aqueous solutions of monoprotic acidic (and basic) species is given. Under certain conditions, various approximate equations can be derived from the exact form; the applicability of these depends mainly on both the thermodynamic equilibrium constant, K p , of the protolytic reaction, and the stoichiometric concentration, C o , of the protolyte. Taking into account the mean ionic activity coefficients which are calculated by means of the Davies equation, diagrams are constructed exhibiting those combinations of K p and C o for which the respective approximations can be applie…

Acetazolamide-M(II) [M(II) = Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II)] complexes with ethylamine, diethylamine, triethylamine, and potassium hidroxide

1991

Abstract Complexes of Co(II), Ni(II), and Cu(II) with dideprotonated Acm are synthesized and characterized. Acm acts as bidentate ligand through the N-sulfonamido atom and the N-thiadiazole atom except for K6CoAcm4·6H2O in which Acm behaves as monodentate through the N-sulfonamido atom.
