The electronic structure of CrOn 2 and CrOn (n51 – 5) was investigated using anion photoelectron spectroscopy and density functional theory. Photoelectron spectra of CrOn 2 were obtained at several photon energies and yielded electron affinities, vibrational and electronic structure information about the neutral CrOn species. Density functional theory calculations were carried out for both the ...

N-Methylbenzylammonium fluorochromate(VI) (MBAFC) is easily synthesized by addition of N-methylbenzylamine to an aqueous solution of CrO3 and HF. MBAFC shows selectivity in the oxidation of aryl alcohols to their corresponding aldehydes and ketones under mild conditions. The durability, ease of work up and efficiency of MBAFC are considerably increased upon its absorption on silica gel.

A major component of the di- and trisialoganglioside fraction of rabbit thymus was isolated. By neuraminidase treatment, methylation analysis, and CrO3 oxidation, it was identified as GD3 ganglioside with the novel disialosyl residue, NeuNGlyc(alpha, 2-8)NeuNAc(alpha, 2-3)Gal-(beta, 1-4)Glc(beta, 1-1)ceramide. Its concentration was 21.92 nmol/g of wet tissue (12.10% of the total gangliosides) a...

a convenient, rapid, and one-pot method for the synthesis of azo dyes has been developed. in this protocol, diazotization reagent (arn2+ -cro3–sio2) was prepared via grinding of aromatic amines, nano2, wet sio2 and nano silica chromic acid (nano-sca) without solvent at room temperature. the obtained diazotization reagent was sufficiently stable to be kept at room temperature in the dry state fo...

The molecular structures and reactivity of tantalum oxide-supported metal oxide (V2O5, Nb2O5, CrO3, MoO3, WO3, and Re2O7) catalysts were determined by Raman spectroscopy and the methanol oxidation chemical probe reaction, respectively. The metal oxides form a twodimensional surface metal oxide overlayer on the tantalum oxide support. Under ambient conditions, the hydrated surface metal oxide sp...
