The a- and b-type rotational transitions of the weakly bound complexes formed by molecular hydrogen and OCS, para-H2-OCS, ortho-H2-OCS, HD-OCS, para-D2-OCS, and ortho-D2-OCS, have been measured by Fourier transform microwave spectroscopy. All five species have ground rotational states with total rotational angular momentum J=0, regardless of whether the hydrogen rotational angular momentum is j...

background and purpose: recently, release of pollutants such as heavy metal ions to the environment becomes one of the most important problems for soil and water. the present study was conducted to introduce modified rice husk (rh) as a new low-cost adsorbent. materials and methods: in this study, tartaric acid modified rh (tarh), was used as an adsorbent for removal of ni(ii) and cd(ii) from w...

The ortho-nitro effect was discovered in sulfa-Staudinger cycloadditions of ethoxycarbonylsulfene with linear imines. When an ortho-nitro group is present at the C-aryl substituents of linear imines, the sulfa-Staudinger cycloadditions deliver cis-β-sultams in considerable amounts, together with the predominant trans-β-sultams. In other cases, the above sulfa-Staudinger cycloadditions give rise...

We report, for the first time, an in situ formation of two-component hydrogels from pyridine derivatives of poly(aryl ether) dendrons and tartaric acid. The two-component system (dendron + acid) undergoes J-type aggregation, leading to fibrillar type self-assembly in THF-water mixture along with blue (470 nm) and green (500 nm) intrinsic emissions.

BACKGROUND/AIMS Erythropoietin-resistance is an unsolved concern in the treatment of renal anaemia. We aimed to investigate the possible role of ortho- and meta-tyrosine - the hydroxyl free radical products of L-phenylalanine - in the development of erythropoietin-resistance. METHODS TF-1 erythroblast cell line was used. Cell concentration was determined on day 1; 2 and 3 by two independent o...
