The evolution and the current trends in a new area of chemistry of organometalloporphyrins, in metalloporphyrin chemistry are reviewed. Synthesis and properties of out of plane, di—nuclear, and "Skewered" metalloporphyrins are described. The new chemistry of metalloporphyrins was initiated by the application of Cr(CO)6, metal carbonyl in general, for insertion of Cr ion (metal ions) into por— p...

The capacity of metal-containing porphyrinoids to mediate reductive dehalogenation is implemented in cobamide-containing reductive dehalogenases (RDases), which serve as terminal reductases in organohalide-respiring microbes. RDases allow for the exploitation of halogenated compounds as electron acceptors. Their reaction mechanism is under debate. Here we report on substrate-enzyme interactions...

Ambient-pressure soft X-ray photoabsorption spectroscopy (XAS) was demonstrated to be applicable to the chemical analysis of hydrated transition-metal compounds. For this purpose, even under ambient-pressure conditions, electron yield detection XAS (EY-XAS), based on a simple drain-current set-up, was used to overcome a weakness in fluorescence yield detection XAS (FY-XAS), which does not give ...

The electrodeposition of neodymium on a cobalt substrate in chloride-fluoride melt NaCl-KCl-10 wt.% NaF-5 NdF3 was studied. It is shown that during electrolysis, coating with crystal size 2-5 microns formed. Microanalysis the determined electrocrystallization intermetallic compounds Co17Nd2 and Co5Nd substrate.

A methanol-utilizing bacterium, Protaminobacter ruber, required cobalt ion or vitamin B12 as its growth factor, which could be replaced by succinate among various additions to the cobalt-deficient medium. The presence of adenosylcobalamin (adenosyl-B12)-dependent methylmalonyl-coenzyme A (CoA) mutase was demonstrated in the cell-free extracts of P. ruber. The specific activity of this mutase wa...

in the present work, attempts have been made to find appropriate coating by testing different compounds. results showed that the optimum enamel is a compound with 1 wt.% cobalt oxide, 3 wt.% chromium oxide (in addition to hundred percent) with the firing temperature of 840 ˚c. constants of vft equation were determined by examination of melting behavior of the optimum enamel and measurement of t...

Nearly monodisperse cobalt ferrite (CoFe2O4) nanoparticles without any size-selection process have been prepared through an alluring method in an oleylamine/ethanol/water system. Well-defined nanospheres with an average size of 5.5 nm have been synthesized using metal chloride as the law materials and oleic amine as the capping agent, through a general liquid-solid-solution (LSS) process. Magne...

We investigated the performance of spin transfer torque random access memory (STTRAM) cell with cross shaped Heusler compound based free layer using micromagnetic simulations. We designed the free layer using Cobalt based Heusler compounds. Here in this paper, simulation results predict that switching time from one state to other state is reduced. Also it is examined that critical switching cur...

A survey of the crystal structures containing simple {M4O4} cubane units is reported. It shows that the average M-M distance in these complexes is relatively constant for a given metal ion M. The structures are all distorted from the idealised cube to a T(d) structure, and most show a further distortion which, however, usually maintains some elements of symmetry. A system for classifying the di...
