Accepted Manuscripts are published online shortly after acceptance, which is prior to technical editing, formatting and proof reading. This free service from RSC Publishing allows authors to make their results available to the community, in citable form, before publication of the edited article. This Accepted Manuscript will be replaced by the edited and formatted Advance Article as soon as thi...

Complex metal hydrides such as sodium aluminohydride (NaAlH4) and sodium borohydride (NaBH4) are solid-state hydrogen-storage materials with high hydrogen capacities. They can be used in combination with fuel cells as a hydrogen source thus enabling longer operation times compared with classical metal hydrides. The most important point for a wide application of these materials is the reversibil...

A novel Schiff-base ligand (L: 2-[(4-chloro-2-oxo-2H-chromen-3-ylmethylene)-amino] propionic acid) was prepared from the reaction of 4-chloro3-formylcoumarin and alanine amino acid. Copper (II) complex was synthesized from the reaction of the ligand with Cu (OAc)2. H2O in ethanol. The ligand and its metal complex were characterized by elemental analysis (CHN), ICP, thermal analysis (TGA), Fouri...

The results of this investigation have provided additional information by chemical methods of the extent of association in fused salts. Association effects observed in solubility and rate studies in fused alkali nitrate are shown to be consistent with the assumption that complex ions such as those existing in aqueous solutions are formed between metal ions and halide ions. In addition, the rate...

in this paper, cubic nickel oxide nanoparticles were successfully prepared by solid-state thermal decomposition of nickel(ii) macrocyclic schiff-base complex at 450°c for 3 h without employing toxic solvent or surfactant and complicated equipment. nickel(ii) macrocyclic schiff-base complex was synthesized by the reaction of 1,2-bis(2-formyl-3-methoxyphenyl)propane, nicl2•6h2o and 1,3-phenylened...

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...

increase in the surface area, demonstrating that the Fe(III) ions work by making the resin porous. The use of these two metal ions enables efRcient NO adsorption. The polymeric resin as well as the metal complex itself greatly affects the adsorbing ability for the target gas molecules as described in the case of CO, C2H4, and NO adsorption. It has been demonstrated clearly that large surface ar...
