Soluble, monomeric Ir(III/IV) complexes strongly affect the photoelectrochemical performance of IrO(x)·nH2O-catalyzed photoanodes for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER). The synthesis of IrO(x)·nH2O colloids by alkaline hydrolysis of Ir(III) or Ir(IV) salts proceeds through monomeric intermediates that were characterized using electrochemical and spectroscopic methods and modeled in TDDFT calc...

The tin(IV)-catalyzed reaction of β-nitrostyrene with (E)-3-methyl-1,3-pentadiene in toluene afforded two major nitronic ester cycloadducts in 27% and 29% yield that arise from the reaction at the less substituted diene double bond. Also present were four cycloadducts from the reaction at the higher substituted diene double bond, two of which were the formal cycloadducts of (Z)-3-methyl-1,3-pen...

We report the first efficient synthesis of para-tert-butylcalix[8]arene and -[9]arene via an exceptionally straightforward innovative protocol that takes place at ambient temperature, employing readily available tin(IV) chloride and s-trioxane.

The present work describes the studies on the coordination behaviour of 4[N-(benzalidene) amino]antipyrine semicarbazone (BAAPS) (I), 4[N-(furfural)amino]antipyrine semicarbazone (FFAAPS) (II) and 4[N-(cinnamalidene)amino]antipyrine semicarbazone (CAAPS) (III) in presence of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) or diphenyl sulfoxide (DPSO) towards Th4+ and UO22+ salts. All the complexes were isolate...

The aim of the present study is to synthesize the oxovanadium complex of the V3+ ion with isatin sciff bases. Spectroscopic methods have been used to confirm these models of complexation and to understand the structures of the species formed in methanolic solution. We also have isolated a complex of Vanadium (III) with isatin schiff bases in the solid phase.

Reaction mechanisms and synthetic methods used for the preparation of homo- copolylactides based on tin( ii ) iv catalysts are reviewed.

Anionic surfactant solutions of sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate (SDBS) and sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS) separate into two phases through cooling of the solution and the addition of salts. Thiourea (TU) reacts with many metals to form cationic complexes of [M(TU)(n)](m+); some of them extract into the SDBS phase. The separation was examined for lead and tin in commercially purchased solders. More ...

The Sn atom in the title compound, [Sn(C(5)H(9))(C(6)H(5))(2)(C(6)H(10)N(3)O(2)S)], exists within a tetra-hedral geometry. The -NH(2) group forms a weak hydrogen bond across a center of inversion to the S atom of an adjacent mol-ecule, as well as another weaker hydrogen (across another center of inversion) to the Sn-bound O atom of another mol-ecule. The hydrogen-bonded layer structure is conso...

In the title complex, [Sn(C(2)H(2)ClO(2))(2)(C(4)H(11)Si)(2)], the Sn(IV) ion is coordinated in a distorted tetra-hedral environment formed by two O atoms from two monodenate chloro-acetato ligands and two C atoms from two trimethyl silyl ligands. Two further weak intra-molecular Sn⋯O contacts [2.744 (2) and 2.655 (2) Å] are formed by the chloro-acetato ligands.
