The N-heterocyclic olefin, IPr=CH(2) (IPr = [(HCNDipp)(2)C], Dipp = 2,6-(i)Pr(2)C(6)H(3)) has been demonstrated to be of sufficient Lewis basicity to stabilize main group hydrides in unusually low oxidation states.

one of the main disadvantages of anaerobic wastewater treatment at a low ph is the significantoperational cost due to the addition of necessary alkali. to reduce alkali supplement and thus the cost, thisstudy proposes a sequential multi-feed (sqmf) mode (distributed feeding) and effluent recycle (er) mode.experiments were conducted with a pilot-scale (2.5 m3) thermophilic (55°c) multi-staged up...

in order to determine the best growing media for gerbera jamesonii under alkaline conditions, a factorial experiment was conducted with two factors, namely: (i) growing medium, and (ii) concentrations of bicarbonate (nahco3) in nutrient solution. results showed that increasing the concentration of nahco3 from 0 to 40 mm in nutrient solution significantly decreased plant growth, maximal quantum ...

This map illustrates the regional patterns of mean annual alkalinity of surface water in the conterminous United States. As such, it affords a qualitative graphic overview to the sensitivity of surface waters to acidification. The map is based on data from approximately 2,500 streams and lakes and apparent spatial correlations between these data and macrowatershed characteristics, especially la...
