A highly selective, rapid and economical differential pulse polarographic method has been developed for the determination of trace amounts of cadmium and lead present together in various standard alloys and biological samples after adsorption of their 1-(2-pyridylazo)-2-naphthol complexes on microcrystalline naphthalene. Cadmium and lead complexes are equantitatively adsorbed on microcrysta...

In the title compound, C(24)H(18)N(2)O(4), the phenyl and benzene rings are both oriented almost perpendicular to the naphthalene ring system at dihedral angles of 70.97 (5) and 84.64 (5)°. The former rings make a dihedral angle of 87.15 (6)°. The mol-ecule has a Z configuration about the C=N bond. In the crystal, mol-ecules are connected by a pair of inter-molecular O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds betwee...

The polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon naphthalene is an environmental pollutant, a component of jet fuel and, since 2000, has been reclassified as a potential human carcinogen. Few studies of the in vitro human metabolism of naphthalene are available and these focus primarily on lung metabolism. The current studies were performed to characterize naphthalene metabolism by human cytochromes P450 (C...

The solvent extraction of trivalent lanthanoids (La, Nd, Eu, Ho, and Lu) with mixtures of the chelating extractant 1-(2-thienyl)-4,4,4-trifluoro-1,3-butanedione (thenoyltrifluoro-acetone, HTTA) or 4-benzoyl-3-methyl-1-phenyl-2-pyrazolin-5-on (HP) and 4-(2-pyridylazo)-resorcin (PAR, S) in CHCl3 was studied. It was found that in the presence of 4-(2-pyridylazo)-resorcin the lanthanoids were extra...

This work deals with a portable device system applied to detect and classify different metallic ions as proposed and developed, aiming its application for hydrological monitoring systems such as rivers, lakes and groundwater. Considering the system features, a portable colorimetric system was developed by using a multispectral optoelectronic sensor. All the technology of quantification and clas...

The reaction of dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate with OH-acid such as 2-naphthol in the presence of trimethyl or triphenyl phosphite under solvent-free conditions produce oxaphosphaphenanthrene derivatives in good yields. Also, the reaction of dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate and trimethyl phosphite in the presence of 1-naphthol leads to succinate derivatives in excellent yields. Using triethyl p...

Rapid photometric assessment of iron in blood plasma and serum by a simple procedure after the extraction of iron(II) complex with 1-nitroso-2-naphthol in the micellar phase of a nonionic surfactant at the cloud point upon heating (pH range is 4.5-6.3) is proposed. The procedure trueness was verified using a standard reference protocol using bathophenanthroline. The advantages of the procedure ...
