In the title compound, C(6)H(10)N(2) (2+)·2NO(3) (-), the dication lies on a crystallographic twofold rotation axis. The nitrate ions are linked to the dications though N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming a three-dimensional network.

Nitrogen-doped, porous rutile has been prepared by hydrothermal reaction of TiN in nitric acid, with the nitrogen atoms present in the interstitial sites and in the form of adsorbed nitrate ions. The N-rutile powder exhibits outstanding photocatalytic activity toward degradation of adsorbed methylene blue under visible light irradiation.

Ion-exchange chromatography using a high-capacity anion exchanger with UV detection was applied to the determination of nitrate in seawater. Major ions in seawater samples did not affect the peak shape and the retention time of the nitrate when an alkaline metal cation-chloride solution was used as an eluent at high concentrations (0.5-2 mol/l). At a wavelength of 220 nm, the peak of bromide wa...

Marigold has special importance and application in landscape designing. Nowadays, various species and cultivars of this plant are grown in many climates, where different environmental stresses such as freezing, salinity and drought can lead to vegetative disorders. This study was carried out to investigate the interactions between salinity and ammonium nitrate on seed germination, vegetative gr...

Nitrate reductase activity and protein percentage of various tree parts of two Populus clones were determined in relation to nitrate ion activity. Nitrogen was supplied as NH(4)NO(3) in a nutriculture system. Wisconsin-5 had significantly greater nitrate reductase activity than Tristis No. 1. Protein percentages of leaf plastochron index 10 leaves (tenth leaf below first leaf lamina exceeding 2...

Nitrite and nitrate are main stable products of nitric oxide, a pivotal cellular signaling molecule, in biological fluids. Therefore, accurate measurement of the two ions is profoundly important. Nitrite is difficult to be determined for a larger number of interferences and unstable in the presence of oxygen. In this paper, a simple, cost-effective and accurate HPLC method for the determination...

In this study, speciation in aqueous solutions of nitric acid at 25 °C was assessed in two independent ways. First, Raman experiments were carried out and interpreted in terms of free nitrate ions, ion pairs and neutral HNO(3) molecules. In parallel, a model was developed to account for the formation of these two kinds of pairs. It was based on an extension of the binding mean spherical approxi...

The structure and dynamics of ionic liquids (ILs) are unusual due to the strong interactions between the ions and counter ions. These microscopic properties determine the bulk transport properties critical to applications of ILs such as advanced fuel cells. The terahertz dynamics and slower relaxations of simple alkylammonium nitrate protic ionic liquids (PILs) are here studied using femtosecon...

Cement-based wasteforms are among the most commonly used waste disposal and site remediation options. However, concrete knowledge of the processes controlling long-term performance of the wasteforms is lacking. This research evaluates the effect of carbonation on cementitious wasteforms. Wasteforms were reacted with carbon dioxide for a prolonged period and then subjected to leaching tests. Ion...
