The stoichiometry of the polyanions formed by the action of nitric acid on sodium tungstate (≤ 0.01M) has been studied by means of electrometric techniques involving pH-potentiometric and conductometric titrations. The well defined inflections and breaks in the titration curves provide evidence for the existence of the polyanions, para-W12O41 and meta-W12O39 corresponding to the ratio of H:WO4 ...

We present a novel Yb:KGd(WO(4))(2) oscillator design that generates six beams of temporally delayed, 253 fs, 11 nJ pulses. This allows multifocal nonlinear microscopy to be performed without the need for complicated optical multiplexers. We demonstrate our design with twelve simultaneously acquired two-photon, second-harmonic and/or third-harmonic images generated from six laterally separated ...

Iron tungstate, Fe 2 WO 6 , is a promising photocatalytic, thermoelectric and electrochemically active material for energy storage devices. However, its structure poorly described in the literature reporting on these applications. For...

A simple batch method for the fluorometric determination of hydrogen peroxide using phosphine-based fluorescent reagents has been developed. A rapid, mild and selective derivatization reaction was achieved by adding sodium tungstate dihydrate to the reaction mixture of hydrogen peroxide and a phosphine-based fluorescent reagent. When 4-diphenylphosphino-7-methylthio-2,1,3-benzoxadiazole was use...

Nucleic acid extracted from environmental samples is an important analyte in instrumental analysis. With respect to the phenomenon which sodium tungstate promotes methane production anaerobic digestion, analyses of microbial community using RNA were conducted; however, we noticed that only concentration measured by absorbance measurement (NanoDrop) was remarkably high. Therefore, this study, DN...

N-Hydroxy-desferrioxamine B (5), a postulated metabolite of the microbial product desferrioxamine B (1), has been prepared by reduction of the intermediate oxime 6 with sodium cyanoborohydride. The oxime was obtained by selective oxidation of desferrioxamine B with hydrogen peroxide and a catalytic amount of sodium tungstate dihydrate. The iron complex derived from 5 enabled definite proof of t...

Visible-light-induced electron transfer from a tungstate to a titanate layer was demonstrated to be mediated by excited rhodamine B (RhB) intercalated by ion exchange between the two layers. The distance of only 1 nm between the layers provides a large contact area that enables the efficient mediation of electron transfer by RhB.
