Kinetics of HO 2 + HO 2 ! H 2 O 2 + O 2 : Implications for Stratospheric H

[1] The reaction HO2 + HO2 ! H2O2 + O2 (1) has been studied at 100 Torr and 222 K to 295 K. Experiments employing photolysis of Cl2/CH3OH/O2/N2 and F2/H2/O2/N2 gas mixtures to produce HO2 confirmed that methanol enhanced the observed reaction rate. At 100 Torr, zero methanol, k1 = (8.8 ± 0.9) 10 13 exp[(210 ± 26)/T] cm molecule 1 s 1 (2s uncertainties), which agrees with current recommendations...

Role of H(2)O(2)-activated TRPM2 calcium channel in oxidant-induced endothelial injury.

The transient receptor potential (melastatin) 2 (TRPM2), is an oxidant-activated non-selective cation channel that is widely expressed in mammalian tissues including the vascular endothelium. Oxidative stress, through the generation of oxygen metabolites including H(2)O(2), stimulates intracellular ADP-ribose formation which, in turn, opens TRPM2 channels. These channels act as an endogenous re...

Sr(0.4)H(1.2)Nb(2)O(6)·H(2)O nanopolyhedra: an efficient photocatalyst.

A photocatalyst Sr(0.4)H(1.2)Nb(2)O(6)·H(2)O (HSN) nanopolyhedra with high surface area has been successfully prepared by a simple hydrothermal method. The as-prepared samples were characterized by XRD, BET, SEM, TEM and XPS. The electronic structure of HSN determined by DFT calculations and electrochemical measurement revealed that HSN is an indirect-bandgap and n-type semiconductor, respectiv...

Cu(2)[o-Br-C(6)H(3)(CO(2))(2)](2)(H(2)O)(2).(DMF)(8)(H(2)O)(2): a framework deliberately designed to have the NbO structure type.

The synthesis of an NbO-type metal-organic framework was achieved by design: o-Br-BDC (BDC = benzenedicarboxylate) was used to direct the formation of Cu2(CO2)4 paddle wheel units at 90 degrees to each other and thus yield the target network. The compound was formulated as Cu2[o-Br-BDC]2(H2O)2.(DMF)8(H2O)2 (MOF-101) and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction [cubic, space group Imm (...
