SODIUM LAURETH SULFATE (SLS) DECORATED α-PbO NANOCRYSTALS: OPTICAL, STRUCTURE, AND MORPHOLOGY PROPERTIES. The nanocrystals were successfully decorated using sodium laureth sulfate anionic surfactant. method used is one-pot synthesis approach. precursor lead nitrate (Pb(NO3)2). UV-Vis spectrophotometer showed the absorption peak of was seen at wavelength 237 nm and an absorbance value 0.7. optic...

nitration of phenol and various 4-substituted phenols with cu(no3)2.3h2o, cu(no3)2.3h2o/sio2, 9h2o and cr(no3)2. 9h2o in different anhydrous organic solvents are investigated. high selectivity ratio of para vs ortho isomers has been observed. mono- and dinitro compounds from phenol and 4-substituted phenols by choosing the proper solvents and reaction conditions, are also obtained with high sel...

Induction of an NO3- efflux system in intact barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) roots was demonstrated. Since the measurement of NO3- efflux is dependent on its accumulation, experiments were devised to facilitate accumulation under noninducing conditions. This was accomplished by incubating seedlings in 10 mM NO3- in the presence of RNA and protein synthesis inhibitors. Under these conditions NO3- up...

Monomeric [Co(II)(hep-H)(H2O)4]SO4 [1]SO4 and [Co(II)(hep-H)2(H2O)2](NO3)2 [2](NO3)2 have been developed from 2-(2-hydroxyethyl)pyridine (hep-H) and CoSO4·7H2O/Co(NO3)2·6H2O, respectively, at 298 K. On exposure to heat (120 °C), the light orange single crystal of [1]SO4 transforms to a pink single crystal corresponding to the neutral sulfato bridged dimeric complex [(Co(II)(hep-H)(H2O)2(μ2-sulf...

We compared processing and fate of dissolved NO3- in two New England salt marsh ecosystems, one receiving natural flood tide concentrations of approximately 1-4 micromol NO3-/ L and the other receiving experimentally fertilized flood tides containing approximately 70-100 micromol NO3-/ L. We conducted simultaneous 15NO3- (isotope) tracer additions from 23 to 28 July 2005 in the reference (8.4 h...

Controls of stream water NO3 in mountainous and forested catchments are not thoroughly understood. Longterm trends in stream water NO3 are positive, neutral and negative, often apparently independent of trends in N deposition. Here, time series of NO3 in four small acid-sensitive catchments in southern Norway were analysed in order to identify likely drivers of long-term changes in NO3. In two ...

Crystals of congruently melting noncentrosymmetric (NCS) mixed alkali metal nitrate, Rb2Na(NO3)3, have been grown through solid state reactions. The material possesses layers with NaO8 hexagonal bipyramids and NO3 triangular units. Rb+ cations are residing in the interlayer space. Each NaO8 hexagonal bipyramid shares its corners and edges with two and three NO3 units, respectively, in order to ...

The reaction of the hydrazone, 2-methoxy-6-(pyridin-2-yl-hydrazonomethyl) phenol (LH) with lanthanide(iii) nitrate salts in the presence of excess triethylamine afforded the heptanuclear Ln(iii) complexes: [Gd7(L)6(μ3-OH)8(NO3)4(H2O)]·(NO3)3·8CH3CN·H2O (), [Tb7(L)6(μ3-OH)8(NO3)4]·(NO3)3·9CH3CN·2CH3OH·3H2O (), [Dy7(L)6(μ3-OH)8(NO3)4(H2O)]·(NO3)3·7CH3CN·3H2O (), [Ho7(L)6(μ3-OH)8(NO3)4]·(NO3)3·11C...

UNLABELLED BACKGROUND The objective of this study was to examine the potential environmental risk of tailings resulted after precious and base metal ores processing, stored in seven impoundments located in the Aries river basin, Romania. The tailings were characterized by mineralogical and elemental composition, contamination indices, acid rock drainage generation potential and water leachab...
