The 1 : 2 molar reactions of MoCl5, in dichloromethane at room temperature, with tetrahydrofuran (thf), tetrahydropyran (thp), dioxane and tetrahydrothiophene (tht) afforded, respectively, [Mo(O)Cl3(thf)]2, 1, and MoCl4(L)2 (L = thp, 2; dioxane, 3; tht, 4), in 81-87% yields. The molecular structures of 1, 2 and 4 were ascertained by X-ray diffractometry. DFT and spectroscopic (IR, NMR) studies ...

Single walled carbon nanotubes ~SWNTs! were reacted with molten lithium at 220 °C for two weeks. This induced dramatic changes in their structure as shown by x-ray and electron diffractometry and Raman spectroscopy. A significant fraction of the initial SWNTs transformed into flat nanostrips having intercalated lithium in between them. Lithium forms a superlattice commensurate with that of the ...

The production of a synthetic basalt comprising Fe3O4 grains (~ 50 nm to ~ 500 nm), via a glass ceramic method, has been confirmed using transmission electron microscopy and X-ray diffractometry. Off-axis electron holography combined with in situ heating allowed for the visualisation of non-uniform vortex states present in saturation remanent structures, and their variation approaching the Curi...

The synthesis of sodium 2-chlorobenzylidenepyruvate and its corresponding acid as well as binary, binary together with it’s acid or hydroxo-2-chorobenzylidenepyruvate of aluminium (III), gallium (III) and indium (III), were isolated. Chemical analysis, thermogravimetry, derivative thermogravimetry (TG/DTG), simultaneous thermogravimetry-differential thermal analysis (TG-DTA) and X-ray powder di...

The hydrothermal synthesis of Fe3O4 nanoparticles (NPs) (< 50 nm) from mixed FeCl3 / FeCl2 precursor solution at pH ~ 12 has been confirmed using complementary characterisation techniques of transmission electron microscopy and X-ray diffractometry. Offaxis electron holography allowed for visualisation of their single domain (SD) nature, as well as inter-particle interactions, with the latter a...

Reaction of 4-oxo-3,4-dihydroquinazoline-2-carbaldehyde with hydroxylamine hydrochloride (1.1 equiv) in the presence K2CO3 (1 gave (E)-4-oxo-3,4-dihydroquinazoline-2-carbaldehyde oxime (8) 58% yield. The compound was fully characterized and conformation supported by single crystal x-ray diffractometry.

Abstract: SiC nano particles with mono dispersed distribution were synthesized by using of silicon alkoxides and phenolic resin as starting materials. After synthesis of sample, characterizations of the obtained powder were investigated via Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) with 400-4000 cm-1, X-ray Diffractometry (XRD), Laser Particle Size Analyzing (LPSA), Si29 NMR analysis, Scan...

in the present study, nanocrystalline ni50al50-xmox (x = 0, 0.5, 1, 2.5, 5) intermetallic compound was produced through mechanical alloying of nickel, aluminum, and molybdenum powders. alni compounds with good and attractive properties such as high melting point, high strength to weight ratio and high corrosion resistance especially at high temperatures have attracted the attention of many rese...
