Combination of the hydrochloride salt of cysteamine (1) with HgCl2 in water affords the unique compound, [Hg{S(CH2)2NH3}2](Cl)2 (2) in which the S Hg S angle is nearly linear. The ammonium portion of the molecule forms short hydrogen bonding contacts with the sulfur atoms. A related S···H bond is observed in the structure of the free ligand 1 indicating that such bonding does not require the pr...

Coffee-powered chemistry: Low-grade waste heat on surfaces can be used to drive chemical reactions, including the regeneration of a CO2 capture solution. Flowing two-phase heat transfer has been implemented within microvascular systems. This stripping system can be adapted to pre-fabricated surfaces, as demonstrated by a coffee mug containing a 1.2 m long microchannel. MEA=monoethanolamine.

This paper describes a facile and effective method to synthesize gold nanoflowers (AuNFs) by a controllable electrodeposition method induced by a L-cysteamine (L-Cys) monolayer self-assembled on the surface of a gold electrode. The AuNFs/L-Cys/Au electrodes were characterized by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), cyclic voltammetry, and AC impedance spectroscopy methods. This...

In this paper, multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs), gold nanoparticles (GNp) and glucose oxidase (GOD) was developed for the specific detection of glucose. MWCNTs were chemically modified with the H2SO4–HNO3 pretreatment to introduce carboxyl groups which were used to interact with the amino groups of poly(allylamine) (PAA) and cysteamine via 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl) carbodiimide/N-hy...

1H and 13C NMR measurements were carried out to explore anticipated correlations between chemical shifts versus thiolate basicities redox potentials of cysteamine, homocysteine, penicillamine, their homodisulfides. All analyzed statistically evaluated. The closest correlation was observed for the αCH nuclei concerning data. Since neither site-specific nor can be directly measured by any means i...

in this paper, multi-wall carbon nanotubes (mwcnts), gold nanoparticles (gnp) and glucose oxidase (god) was developed for the specific detection of glucose. mwcnts were chemically modified with the h2so4–hno3 pretreatment to introduce carboxyl groups which were used to interact with the amino groups of poly(allylamine) (paa) and cysteamine via 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl) carbodiimide/n-hy...
