Studien zum Vorgang der Wasserstoffübertragung, 49: Zur Frage der Auslösung einer optischen Induktion durch Anwendung optisch aktiver Ephedrinderivat…
1978
Die quartaren Ephedriniumsalze 1–5 sowie die bekannten Kronenether 6 und 7 werden als Leitsalze bei der Elektroreduktion von Acetophenon eingesetzt. Hierbei wird das Produktverhaltnis: sekundarer Alkohol (A) zum Diol (B) sowie die optische Induktion von A wesentlich durch das Leitsalz beeinflust. Es wird hieraus der Schlus gezogen, das weniger die Elektrosorption der Leitsalze an die Quecksilberoberflache als vielmehr feldbedingte Orientierungs- und Assoziations-phanomene zwischen optisch aktivem Leitsalz und prochiralem Substrat im diffusen Bereich der elektrochemischen Doppelschicht wirksam sind.

Weak alkali and alkaline earth metal complexes of low molecular weight ligands in aqueous solution
2008
This work is aimed at reviewing the chemical literature dealing with thermodynamic aspects of the weak complex formation (species with log K values less than about 3) between alkali and alkaline earth metal ions with low molecular weight inorganic and organic ligands in aqueous solution. The following ligands (up to hexavalent anions) were examined in detail: (i) hydroxide, chloride, sulfate, carbonate and phosphate as inorganic, and (ii) carboxylates, amines, amino acids, complexones and nucleotides as organic ligands. The paper also identifies the main reasons responsible for the dispersion of the stability data on ion pairs in the literature. When possible, the trend of stability for the…
Abatement of 1,1,2,2-tetrachloroethane in water by reduction at silver cathode and oxidation at boron doped diamond anode in micro reactors
2012
The treatment of aqueous solutions of 1,1,2,2-tetrachloroethane was performed by anodic oxidation at boron doped diamond (BDD), cathodic reduction at silver and coupled processes. Experiments were performed in macro and micro reactors with an interelectrode distance lower than 100. μm. Drastically higher abatements of the chlorinated compound and current efficiencies were obtained in microdevices that, furthermore, allowed to perform the electrolyses with low cell voltages in the absence of supporting electrolyte. When reduction and oxidation processes were carried out simultaneously in the microreactor, a higher abatement of pollutants was obtained with the same amount of the passed charge…
Inverse-voltammetric determination of bismuth in biomaterials with computer assisted peak evaluation
1988
The inverse-voltammetric determination of low bismuth concentrations in a 1 mol/l HCl as supporting electrolyte was investigated with regard to optimal working conditions. New and old types of mercury-drop electrodes and mercury-film electrodes were compared concerning their sensibility, selectivity and interferences. With both electrodes the determination of 0.1 μg/l to 0.01 μg/l bismuth is possible. The influence of a large excess of copper and antimony on the inverse-voltammetric determination of bismuth was studied in detail.
Thermodiffusion of sodium polystyrene sulfonate in a supporting electrolyte
2019
Thermodiffusion, or the Soret phenomenon, is well understood in simple systems, but in multicomponent and polyvalent electrolyte systems the process becomes more complicated due to the coupling of fluxes. We experimentally investigate the time evolution of a concentration gradient generated by thermodiffusion of a polyelectrolyte (poly(sodium 4-styrene sulfonate), NaPSS) in a 1:1 supporting electrolyte. We also derive and solve the transport equations that are used to extract the Soret coefficient from the experimental observations. It is shown that NaPSS thermodiffusion in NaCl is strongly dependent on concentration, with almost 100% thermal separation in concentrations below 15 nmol L−1. …
Electrochemical treatment of real wastewater. Part 1: Effluents with low conductivity
2018
Abstract The treatment of a real wastewater characterized by low conductivity was performed by anodic oxidation at boron doped diamond (BDD) in both conventional and microfluidic cells. The electrolyses carried out in conventional cells without supporting electrolyte were characterized by very high TOC removals but excessively high energetic consumptions and operating costs. The addition of sodium sulphate, as supporting electrolyte, allowed to strongly reduce the cell potentials and consequently the energetic consumptions and the operating costs. However, under various operating conditions, the addition of Na2SO4 caused a lower removal of the TOC. The best results in terms of both TOC remo…
Azolylborates for Electrochemical Double Layer Capacitor Electrolytes
2017
Abstract Asymmetric tetraalkylammonium salts of azolylborates were synthesized and studied with respect to their suitability as supporting electrolytes in electrochemical double layer capacitors. In contrast to current conducting salts used in this device, azolylborates exhibit an excellent stability towards thermal load and moisture. In addition to good conductivity and stability towards cathodic reduction we found certain limitations when more positive potentials were applied.
pH and supporting electrolyte concentration effects on the passive transport of cationic and anionic drugs through fixed charge membranes
1999
Abstract The effects of pH and supporting electrolyte concentration on the passive transport of an ionized (cationic or anionic) drug through a thick fixed charge membrane have been theoretically studied. This system constitutes a simplified model for the pH controlled ion transport and drug delivery through membranes of biological and pharmaceutical interest. Calculations were carried out for different values of the membrane fixed charge, supporting electrolyte and drug concentrations covering a broad range of the conditions usually found in experiments. The theoretical approach employed is based on the Nernst–Planck flux equations, and all of the species present in the system (the neutral…
CuZnSnSe NANOTUBES AND NANOWIRES BY TEMPLATE ELECTROSYNTHESIS
2014
In this work we present some results of an extensive investigation aimed to find suitable conditions to grow CuZnSnSe (CZTSe) nanostructures through single-step electrodeposition into the channels of polycarbonate membranes. After the optimization of several electrodeposition parameters, we have found that pulsed current deposition, between 0 and -1 mA cm-2, is the best way to obtain CZTSe nanostructures mechanically attached to the support. An interesting result concerns the effect of supporting electrolyte in the deposition bath. In fact, changing its concentration it is possible to vary morphology of nanostructures from nanotubes to nanowires. In both case uniform arrays of ordered nanos…
Direct electrochemical detosylation of tetratosylcyclen to cyclen with carbon cathodes
2005
The electrochemical detosylation of tetratosylcyclen to cyclen (1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane) in aprotic solvents at a carbon cathode was investigated both in a bench-scale batch electrochemical reactor and in a continuous batch recirculation reaction system equipped with a parallel-plate electrochemical cell. Yields and faradaic efficiency in cyclen, respectively, of 80 and 55% were obtained in the bench-scale reactor working in acetonitrile. It was found that the faradaic efficiency in cyclen depends on the competition between the reduction of the tetratosylcyclen and parasitic processes as the reduction of the tetraalkylammonium cations present in the supporting electrolyte. We have ob…
