Compounds consisting of [M(1,2-disila-[3n]crown-n)]2+ (M = Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba; n = 5, 6) and [Ba(1,2-disila-benzo[18]crown-6)]2+ cations and different anions were obtained by equimolar reaction of the hybrid disila-crown ethers 1,2-disila[15]crown-5 (1), 1,2-disila[18]crown-6 (2) and 1,2-disila-benzo[18]crown-6 (7) with alkaline earth metal salts. Even with strongly coordinating anions such as Br- ...

Alkaline magmatism is an important chemical end-member of magmatic activity that typically occurs in response to small volume melting asthenospheric- and/or lithospheric mantle material intra-continental settings. Understanding trace element partitioning and phase equilibria during alkaline can therefore provide constraints on geodynamic However, the elements between melts their dominant equili...

We present a microscopic theory of the anomalous Hall effect (AHE) in metallic multiband ferromagnets, which accounts for all scattering-independent contributions, i.e., both the intrinsic and the so-called side jump. For a model of Gaussian disorder, the AHE is expressed solely in terms of the material's electronic band structure. Our theory handles systematically the interband-scattering cohe...

Monomeric (M 1⁄4 2Li or 2H) and polymeric (M 1⁄4 2H, Zn, Cu, Co, or Ni), where M is metal or hydrogen, phthalocyanines were prepared by the tetramerization reaction of bisphthalonitrile monomer with appropriate materials. The electrical conductivities of the polymeric phthalocyanines, which were measured as gold sandwiches, were found to be 10 –10 7 S/cm in vacuo and in air. The binding propert...

Transition metals are known to be enriched in organic-coated marine aerosols, but the impact these cations have on their surface properties is not well understood. Here the effect of Zn2+ enrichment on the surface properties of a dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC) monolayer was investigated and compared to that of the alkaline earth metal Sr2+, an ion not enriched in aerosols. Phase behavior...

The asymmetric unit of the title basic strontium oxotellurate(IV), Sr5Te4O12(OH)2 {systematic name penta-strontium tetra-kis-[oxotellurate(IV)] di-hydroxide}, comprises three SrII cations (one with site symmetry 2) and two TeIV atoms, as well as seven O atoms. The coordination numbers of the alkaline earth cations to nearby O atoms range from seven (2 ×) to eight, and the TeIV atoms are surroun...

A capacitively-coupled contactless conductivity detector (C4D) has been utilised as an on-capillary detector within a capillary ion chromatograph, incorporating a reversed-phase monolithic silica capillary column semi-permanently modified with a suitable ionic surfactant. The monolithic capillary column (150 x 0.1 mm i.d.) was modified using sodium dioctyl sulfosuccinate (DOSS), an anionic surf...

four different alkaline earth metal oxides i.e. mgo, cao, sro and bao were used as heterogeneous catalysts for biodiesel production from palm oil. effects of critical process variables i.e. reaction time, methanol to oil ratio and temperature were investigated. the results were then fitted to a historical design to study the analysis of variance (anova), to characterize interactions between var...
