A number of new binuclear complexes have been synthesised by interaction of stable Ni(II) and Cu(II) metal chelates of p-Methylisonitroacetosophenone with Alkaline earth metal salts having general formula[Ma(p-MeINAP)2MbL2 or MbX2]where Ma=Ni(II) or Cu(II),p-MeINAP = deprotonated pMethyiIsonitrosoacetophenone, Mb= Ca ++ or Mg ++ ,L = deprotonated ortho amino benzoic acid and 8hydroxyquinoline X...

Three new alkaline earth metal based MOFs have been synthesized by using 4,4'-sulfobisbenzoic acid (SBBA) and alkaline earth metal salts M(NO(3))(2), M = Ca, Sr, Ba. These MOFs exhibit interesting structural diversity, variable chemical stability as well as proton conductivity.

In the present study we have synthesized new binuclear complexes of alkali and alkaline earth metal salts with interaction of stable metal chelates of isonitrosopropiophenone of Ni(II) & Cu(II) having general formula [Ma(INPP)2.MbL] and [Ma(INPP)2.MbX] for alkali metal adducts and [ Ma(INPP)2.MbL2] and [ Ma(INPP)2.MbX2] for alkaline earth metal adducts where Ma=Ni (II) or Cu(II) and Mb =Li+ , N...

A proton NMR method for the determination of the solvation numbers of alkaline earth cations with dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) in nitromethane as diluent is described. The method is based on the monitoring of the resonance frequency of DMSO protons as a function of DMSO to metal ion mole ratio while keeping the metal ion concentration constant. The average solvation number of cations at any...

The cluster compounds (NH4)4[Nb6Cl12(N3)6](H2O)2 (1) and Na1.15(3)La0.85(3)[Nb6Cl12(N3)6](H2O)13(1) (2) have been synthesized by the reaction of an aqueous solution of Nb6Cl14 with an excess of NaN3 and the respective chloride salts. 1 crystallizes isotypically to the other alkali metal cluster azides in the space group P1̄ (no. 2) with the lattice parameters a = 908.97(8), b = 932.78(8), c = 10...

Electrochemiluminescence (ECL) of a series of ruthenium(II) diimine complexes with appended crown ethers derived from 1,10-phenanthroline was studied via either the annihilation route or the coreactant schemes, and the ECL efficiency has been determined. The effect of an FSN surfactant on the ECL properties was also studied in buffer solutions. The effect of cation binding on the ECL behavior w...

Alkali and alkaline earth metals hydrogen sulfate catalyzed the one-pot three component condensation reactions of aldehydes, 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds and urea or thiourea under solvent-free conditions leading to 3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-ones in high yields at 80 °C. Our results showed that Biginelli reaction not only is pH dependent, but the cation of catalyst plays an importan...

four different alkaline earth metal oxides i.e. mgo, cao, sro and bao were used as heterogeneous catalysts for biodiesel production from palm oil. effects of critical process variables i.e. reaction time, methanol to oil ratio and temperature were investigated. the results were then fitted to a historical design to study the analysis of variance (anova), to characterize interactions between var...

A novel alkaline polymer has been developed as an interfacial material for use in the preparation of metal-cation-free alkaline membrane electrode assemblies (MEAs) for all-solid-state alkaline fuel cells (AFCs) with long-term performance stability.

Aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic esters, carboxylic amides, imines and N,N-disubstituted hydrazones react as electrophiles at their sp2-hybridized carbon atoms. These compounds also become nucleophiles, if they contain an H atom in the a-position relative to their C O or C N bonds. This is because they can undergo tautomerization to the corresponding enol as seen in Chapter 12. They are also C,H-...
