Elution curves on spherosil gels in pure and mixed eluents of poly(dimethylsiloxane), PDMS, and poly(methyl methacrylate), PMMA, as well as those of polystyrene, PS, just for comparison, have been determined. In a general way, PDMS elution volumers fit to those of PS, whereas PMMA elution curves shift to higher retention volumes. The differences in retention volumes between the different polymeric solutes have been interpreted in terms of differences in polymer-gel and polymer-solvent interactions. Hydrogen-bonding seems to be the main contribution to solute-substrate interactions.

<strong>Synthesis and Platinum (II) Complexes of Different Polyazacyclophane Receptors</strong>

2015

During the last years, research on coordination chemistry of platinum has aroused great interest due to their potential biological applications. Herein, we report the interaction of PtCI42- with different polyazacyclophanes containing a pyridine unit as aromatic spacer. Formation of complexes has been studied by 1H and 195Pt NMR spectroscopy. Analysis of the recorded spectra of D2O solutions containing L and PtCl42- in a 1:1 molar ratio at acidic pH shows the evolution with time of the 1H and 195Pt signals. Different crystal structures have been solved by X-ray diffraction analysis. At acidic pHs, the metal ion is coordinated by the central amino group of the macrocyclic cavity and three ch…

Reversible, room-temperature C—C bond activation of benzene by an isolable metal complex

2019

The activation of C-C bonds is of fundamental interest in the construction of complex molecules from petrochemical feedstocks. In the case of the archetypal aromatic hydrocarbon benzene, C-C cleavage is thermodynamically disfavored, and is brought about only by transient highly reactive species generated in situ. Here we show that the oxidative addition of the C-C bond in benzene by an isolated metal complex is not only possible, but occurs at room temperature and reversibly at a single aluminium center in [(NON)Al]- (where NON = 4,5-bis(2,6-diisopropylanilido)-2,7-di-tert-butyl-9,9-dimethylxanthene). Selectivity over C-H bond activation is achieved kinetically and allows for the generation…

Spectroscopic behaviour of metal–drug complexes. Infrared spectra of Cu(II) complexes with 5-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazole-2-thiol (Hatm)

1997

Abstract The infrared spectra of the drug Hatm and its copper (II) complexes with stoichiometry [Cu(atm) 2 (H 2 O)] and [Cu(Hatm)(HIm) 2 (SO 4 )] are reported and discussed. The Raman spectrum of Hatm is also reported. An assignment of Hatm, HIm, H 2 O and SO 4 modes in the complexes is proposed in comparison with the modes of the free ligands. Important information about the metal–ligand vibrations has been obtained.

Regulatory Changes in Pterin and Carotenoid Genes Underlie Balanced Color Polymorphisms in the Wall Lizard

2018

ABSTRACTReptiles use pterin and carotenoid pigments to produce yellow, orange, and red colors. These conspicuous colors serve a diversity of signaling functions, but their molecular basis remains unresolved. Here, we show that the genomes of sympatric color morphs of the European common wall lizard, which differ in orange and yellow pigmentation and in their ecology and behavior, are virtually undifferentiated. Genetic differences are restricted to two small regulatory regions, near genes associated with pterin (SPR) and carotenoid metabolism (BCO2), demonstrating that a core gene in the housekeeping pathway of pterin biosynthesis has been co-opted for bright coloration in reptiles and indi…

Über die polymeranaloge bromierung von naturkautschuk und einige lösungseigensch aften des bromkautschuks. Über die molekularen konstanten von naturk…

1961

Naturkautschuk last sich in verdunnter Losung in Cyclohexan bromieren, wobei das Molekulargewicht entsprechend dem Bromgehalt zunimmt (polymeranaloge Umsetzung). Fur Bromkautschuk steigenden Bromgehalts wird Cyclohexan ein zunehmend schlechteres Losungsmittel, was sich in einer Abnahme des 2. osmotischen Virialkoeffizienten und einer Kontraktion des Molekulknauels zeigt. Dieses Ergebnis wird in quantitativer Ubereinstimmung durch Viskositats- und Lichtstreuungsmessungen erhalten. Cyclohexanlosungen von Bromkautschuk mit 43% Brom haben bei Zimmertemperatur einen Θ-Punkt. In diesem Zustand ist der Knauel 1,74mal groser als bei freier Drehbarkeit, in ziemlich guter Ubereinstimmung mit dem an a…

Self-lubricating epoxide composites Kompozyty epoksydowe o właściwościach samosmarujących

2015

A com. epoxy resin was modified by addn. of aliph. polyamine, graphite, a poly-α-olefin oil and phosphate fire retardant, cured at 130°C and studied for friction coeff. in contact with steel, heat resistance and mech. strength. The addn. of graphite resulted in a decrease in the resin hardness, impact strength and friction coeff.

Structure and mechanical properties of Al–B composite powder

1997

Abstract Al-B composite powder has been obtained by crushing pieces of composite material presenting industrial waste. Structural peculiarities and microhardness of separate powder particles (d∼1 mm) have been investigated. Original design of high precision microhardness tester made it possible to detect the properties of powder both in near-surface layer and below it. The powder represents a new structurally non-homogenous material with the increased microhardness (1.5 GPa) which grows up to 4 GPa in near-surface layers. Stable oxide compounds are formed on internal surfaces and defects of the aluminium alloy. Powder compacts were obtained. Adhesion on Al–B and Al–Al interfaces at various …

For the three different cases (R=polybutadiene, polypropylene oxide and EPDM) the isothermal cloud point curves of the system styrene/polystyrene/rubber (S/PS/R) show that at 25°C a decomposition into two phases occurs already in the presence of a few percents of polystyrene and rubber. By separating the phases (centrifuge) and analysis of coexisting phases, tie lines and thus critical points could be fixed. Evaluation of the results was made on the basis of the Flory and Huggins theory by means of approximations given for such systems by Scott. The interaction parameters resulting for 25°C are well in agreement with literature data—as far as available. By means of the approximations mentio…
