In the crystal structure of the title salt, C(10)H(16)N(+)·H(2)PO(4) (-)·H(3)PO(4), the H(2)PO(4) (-) and H(3)PO(4) components are connected into infinite chains extending along the b-axis direction by way of O-H⋯O links. These chains are also linked through O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds thus building up a supra-molecular two-dimensional framework extending parallel to (001). The organic cations cross-l...

The electrochemical behaviors of thiazolidine (tetrahydrothiazole) on gold and platinum electrodes were investigated in a Britton-Robinson buffer (pH 2.77-11.61), acetate buffer (pH 4.31), phosphate buffer solutions (pH 2.11 and 6.38) and methanol or acetonitrile containing various supporting electrolytes. Detection was based on a gold wire electrochemical signal obtained with a supporting elec...

Through the polishing experiments of potassium dihydrogen phosphate (KDP) crystals based on deliquescent action, the effect of several major factors, including crystal's initial surface state, polishing time, and revolution of polishing plate, on material removal was researched. Under certain experimental conditions, the rules of material removal were reached, and experimental results are discu...

Wide bite angle diphosphine ligands were used to prepare [(diphosphine)M(2-(diphenylphosphino)pyridine)](2+) complexes (M = Pd, Pt). Except for the ligand with the largest bite angle, 2-(diphenylphosphino)pyridine coordinates in a bidentate mode leading to bis-chelate complexes. In the case of Xantphos (9,9-dimethyl-4,5-bis(diphenylphosphino)-xanthene, βn = 111°) two types of complexes are form...

Spontaneous noncollinear second harmonic generation in potassium dihydrogen phosphate (KDP) crystals was studied theoretically and experimentally as a function of the scattering centres on the surface of the crystal. A model that explains the main features of the second harmonic generated beam was developed in terms of the surface roughness defined by the size of the dispersing grains. It predi...

New ferrocene substituted calix[4 and 5]arenes have been prepared and the crystal structure of a lower-rim substituted bis ferrocene calix[4]arene (7) has been elucidated. The respective ferrocene/ferrocenium redox-couples of compounds 6 (a calix[4]arene tetra ferrocene amide) and 8 (a calix[5]arene pentaferrocene amide) are shown to be significantly cathodically perturbed in the presence of an...

Vibrational spectroscopy can give useful informa tian, both structural and dynamical, about phase transitions in molecular crystals. In particular, the data concerning the mechanism of the transformation at molecular level can be obtained. This is illustrated by examples of pure van der Waals crystals such as 3,5-dichloropyridine and 4-methylpyridine, hydrogen bonded malonic acid, inorganic fer...
