Two rapid, simple and sensitive extractive specrophotometric methods has been developed for the assay of Hyoscine butyle bromide (HBB), losartan potassium (LSR) and Sertaline HCl (SER) in bulk and in their pharmaceutical formulations. The proposed methods depend upon the reaction of cobalt(II)–thiocyanate (method A) and molybdenum(V)–thiocyanate ions (method B) with the cited drugs to form stab...

In this study, different cationic surfactants were prepared by reacting dodecyl bromide with tertiary amines to produce a series of quaternary ammonium salts that were converted subsequently to stannous and cobalt cationic complexes via complexing them with stannous (II) or cobalt (II) ions. Surface properties such as surface- and interfacial-tension, and the emulsifying power of these surfacta...

The role of cobalt(II) complexes containing 2-formylpyrrolyl chelating ligands and phosphine ligands combined with a bromo-alkyl ester, an alkyl bromide or an azo compound in the formation of suitable initiator systems for vinyl monomer controlled radical polymerization was studied. The formation of syndiotactic-rich (Pr>0.7) poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) and atactic (Pr=0.49) poly(styrene) ...

Magnetic nanoparticles of cobalt ferrite (CoFe204) have been synthesized using water-in-oil microemulsions consisting of water, cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (surfactant), n-butanol (cosurfactant), and n-octane (oil). Precursor hydroxides were precipitated in the aqueous cores of water-in-oil microemulsions and these were then separated and calcined to give the magnetic oxide. X-ray diffract...

Nickel–cobalt alloys were prepared by alloy electrodeposition with a sulfamate bath, and the mechanical properties on micro-scale evaluated for application as micro-components in miniaturized electronic devices. Nickel bromide commercially available surface brightener used additives. The cobalt content increased from 21.5 to 60.1 at.% after addition of nickel into grain size refined 21.1 13.2 n...

The syn theses of diaquabis (3-hydroxyflavonato) cobalt (II) and bis(pyridine) bis (3hydroxyflavonato)cobalt(II) are described. Results from infrared spectra clearly show that the 3-hydroxyflavonato anion forms a chelate through the 3-hydroxy 4-keto groups. The electronic spectra of both complexes indicate that cobalt(II) has an octahedral geometry. Quantitative analyses of the isolated product...

Direct C2-alkylation of an indole bearing a readily removable N-pyrimidyl group with a vinylsilane was achieved by using a cobalt catalyst generated in situ from CoBr(2), bathocuproine, and cyclohexylmagnesium bromide. The reaction allows coupling between a series of N-pyrimidylindoles and vinylsilanes at a mild reaction temperature of 60 °C, affording the corresponding alkylated indoles in mod...

To eliminate caffeine, one of the most common pharmaceuticals and personal care products, from water, Oxone (peroxymonosulfate salt) was proposed to degrade it. To accelerate the generation of sulfate radicals from Oxone, a magnetic cobalt/carbon nanocomposite (CCN) was prepared from a one-step carbonization of a cobalt-based Zeolitic Imidazolate Framework (ZIF-67). The resultant CCN exhibits i...
