some new symmetrical tetraaza schiff base ligands containing 2-quinolinecarboxaldehyde moiety formed from condensation reaction of 2-quinolinecarboxaldehyde and o-phenylenediamine derivatives, such as n, nˊ-bis(2-quinolylmethylidene)-4-methoxy-1, 2-phenylenediimine (l1), n, nˊ-bis(2-quinolylmethylidene)-4-methy-1, 2-phenylenediimine (l2), n, nˊ-bis(2-quinolylmethylidene)-4-chloro-1, 2-phenylene...

High yielding synthetic routes to 3’,5’-diamino-2’,3’,5’-trideoxycytidine and 3’,5’-diamino-2’,3’,5’-trideoxyadenosine are described. In addition, the protonation behavior of 3’,5’-diamino-2’,3’,5’-trideoxycytidine, 3’,5’-diamino-2’,3’,5’-trideoxyadenosine, 3’,5’diamino-3’,5’-dideoxythymidine, and 3’,5’-diamino-2’,3’,5’-trideoxyuridine has been studied by means of pH-metric measurements and NMR...

Since there is no flue-gas desulfurization facility (FGD) in Australian Power Plants, the temperatures of flue gases from the plants range from 393–433 K which is much higher than the absorption temperatures in a typical post combustion CO2 capture (PCC) process. The additional cooling systems and equipments are required to cool flue gases. This adds to the cost, and water and energy consumptio...

The replacement of an acetate function of the macrocyclic DOTA4-(DO3A-Nprop4-) or the acyclic DTPA5- in terminal position (DTTA-Nprop5-) has been recently shown to result in a significant increase of the water exchange rate on the Gd3+ complexes, which makes these chelates potential contrast agents for MRI applications. Here, two novel and straightforward synthetic routes to H4DO3A-Nprop are de...

Formation equilibria of dioxy vanadium (V) complex with alanine in acidic media (pH<2.3) has been investigated potentiometrically and spectrophotometrically. In this condition the 1:1 complex has the formula VO2Y, where Y¯ represent the fully dissociated aminocarboxylate anion. The stability constant of VO2Y was determined as log KVO2Y=11.32±<e...

The formation of charge-transfer complexation between dibenzo-15-crown-5 (DB15C5) and benzo-12-crown-4 (B12C4) (Donor) and iodine is investigated spectrophotometrically in three chlorinated solvents,chloroform, dichloromethane (DCM) and 1,2-dichloroethane (DCE) solution at 25°C. The change in polarityof the solvent also doesn’t affect the stoichiometry of the complexes. Values of formation cons...

The p K(a) values of 6-fluoro-4,8-diazadodecane-1,12-diamine (6-fluorospermine) (1), 6,6-difluoro-4,8-diazadodecane-1,12-diamine (6,6-difluorospermine) (2), 6-fluoro-4-azaoctane-1,8-diamine (6-fluorospermidine) (3) and 6,6-difluoro-4-azaoctane-1,8-diamine (6,6-difluorospermidine) (4) in D(2)O solution have been determined at 40 degrees C from (13)C NMR chemical shifts data using the new compute...

formation of the molecular complexes between meso-tetraphenylporphyrin (tpp) and the p-acceptors 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyanobenzoquinone (ddq) and tetracyanothylene (tcne) in chloroform solution was investigated spectrophotometrically. the formation constants of the resulting 1:1 molecular complexes were determined using the benesi-hildebrand and nash methods. the tpp-ddq proved to be more stable ...
