Complexes of Azelaic and Diethylenetrioxydiacetic Acids with Na+, Mg2+, and Ca2+ in NaCl Aqueous Solutions, at 25 °C

1999

Formation constants of Na + , Mg 2+ , and Ca 2+ complexes of azelaic and diethylenetrioxydiacetic acids have been determined by potentiometry (H + -glass electrode) at different ionic strengths (0 ≤ I ≤ 1 mol dm -3 ), at t = 25 °C. For all the systems the species ML and MHL have been found. The relative formation constants are reported together with the parameters for the dependence on ionic strength. Results are discussed in comparison with those for other carboxylic ligands. Speciation problems are considered also.

Temperature and light sensitive copolymers containing azobenzene moieties prepared via a polymer analogous reaction

2009

Abstract Four different series of polyacrylamides containing different amounts of azobenzene moieties have been synthesized via a polymer analogous reaction of poly(pentafluorophenylacrylate) (PPFPA). All copolymers were designed to exhibit a lower critical solution temperature (LCST) in aqueous solution, which was dependent on (i) the amount of incorporated chromophoric azobenzene groups and (ii) the isomerization state of the respective azobenzene group. Higher LCST values were measured for UV-irradiated solutions of the copolymers in comparison to the non-irradiated copolymer solutions. A maximum difference in the LCST of up to 7 °C was found for the copolymer poly(N,N-dimethylacrylamide…

Molecular Recognition-Induced Function and Competitive Replacement by Hydrogen-Bonding Interactions:  Amphiphilic Barbituric Acid Derivatives, 2,4,6-…

The phenomenon of molecular recognition inducing further function is common in nature. However, there are few synthetic systems which achieve this cascade type mechanism, and those are generally ca...

Structure and fluxional behaviour of heptaleneirontricarbonyl and heptalenebis (Irontricarbonyl)

1987

Abstract The synthesis of heptaleneirontricarbonyl ( 4 ) is described. The structures of 4 and of the closely related heptalenebis(irontricarbonyl) ( 3 ) are elucidated by NMR spectroscopy ( 1H and 13C) and by X-ray crystallography. Compounds 3 and 4 are shown by dynamic NMR to undergo an isodynamic 1 ,2-migration of the Fe(CO3)-groups as well as a carbonyl scrambling. The relevant kinetic data allow for a mechanistic discussion of the dynamics and a comparison with other irontricarbonyl complexes.

Synthesis, characterization, and complexation of tetraarylborates with aromatic cations and their use in chemical sensors.

2005

Five aromatic borate anions, namely tetrakis(4-phenoxyphenyl)borate (1), tetrakis(biphenyl)borate (2), tetrakis(2-naphthyl)borate (3), tetrakis(4-phenylphenol)borate (4), and tetrakis(4-phenoxy)borate (5), have been prepared and tested as ion-recognition sites in chemical sensors for certain aromatic cations and metal ions. To gain further insight into the complexation of the cations, some complexes have been prepared and structurally characterized. The complexation behavior of 1 and 2 towards N-methylpyridinium (6), 1-ethyl-4-(methoxycarbonyl)pyridinium (7), tropylium (8), imidazolium (9), and 1-methylimidazolium (10) cations has been studied, and the stability constants of the complexes o…

Boehmite Supported Pyrene Polyamine Systems as Probes for Iodide Recognition

2013

New organic–inorganic fluorescent probes made by attaching the tripodal polyamine (tris(2-aminoethyl))amine (tren), propylamine, or diethylenetriamine functionalized with pyrene as a fluorophore to an γ-aluminum oxohydroxide matrix have been prepared and studied both in solution and supported on the surface of boehmite nanoparticles. Both kinds of systems have been revealed as sensitive and selective fluorescence turn-off chemosensors for iodide in aqueous solution with an estimated detection limit that reaches 36 ppb. The recognition characteristics and photophysical properties of these molecules are essentially preserved when they are grafted to the surface of the particles. Since the nan…

Effects of organic matter complexation on partitioning of transition metals into calcite: Cave-analogue crystal growth experiments

2022

We highlight the potential for first row transition metals to carry paleohydrological signals in speleothems, and argue that these metals constitute valuable proxies for climate reconstructions. Metal availability to speleothems is hypothesised to be restricted by organic complexation, which strongly limits the free ion activity of transition metals (Co2+, Ni2+ and Cu2+) in dripwater, thereby creating a kinetic overprint on metal concentrations and isotope ratios in speleothem calcite. This study presents the results of the first cave-analogue experiments of transition metal partitioning into calcite in the absence and presence of organic ligands. The Geological Microclimate (GeoMic) system…

Resting cells of the yeast Rhodosporidium toruloides (UOFS Y-0471) were immobilised in calcium alginate beads for the enantioselective kinetic resolution of racemic-1,2-epoxyoctane. The initial activity exhibited by immobilised cells was almost 50% lower than that of the free counterpart but was extremely stable when compared to the free cells. The concentration of the immobilised biomass had no effect on apparent enzyme activity but did lead to a decrease in single cell activity. An increase in both the alginate and CaCl2 concentrations used for bead preparation led to a decrease in enzyme stability. An increase in the alginate concentration led to an increase in bead diameter. The stoichi…

Influence of Polymer Molecular Weight on Drug–polymer Solubility: A Comparison between Experimentally Determined Solubility in PVP and Prediction Der…

2015

ABSTRACT: In this study, the influence of polymer molecular weight on drug–polymer solubility was investigated using binary systems containing indomethacin (IMC) and polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) of different molecular weights. The experimental solubility in PVP, measured using a differential scanning calorimetry annealing method, was compared with the solubility calculated from the solubility of the drug in the liquid analogue N-vinylpyrrolidone (NVP). The experimental solubility of IMC in the low-molecular-weight PVP K12 was not significantly different from that in the higher molecular weight PVPs (K25, K30, and K90). The calculated solubilities derived from the solubility in NVP (0.31–0.32 …
