in the present work, highly efficient oxidation of sulfides catalyzed by moo2(acac)2 supported on multi-wall carbon nanotubes, mwcnts, modified with 1,2-diaminobenzene (dab) and 2-aminophenol (ap), at room temperature are reported. the effects of various parameters such as reaction time, solvent, catalyst amount, oxidant, etc, were studied. these heterogenized catalysts showed high activity in ...

An unusual heterobimetallic volatile compound [Pb2Co5(acac)14] was synthesized by the gas phase/solid-state technique. The preparation can be readily scaled up using solution approach. X-ray powder diffraction, ICP-OES analysis, and DART mass spectrometry were engaged to confirm composition purity of complex. is unique among large family lead(tin): transition metal = 2:1, 1:1, 1:2 β-diketonates...

FIGURE 2. Traditional X-ray scattering experiment setup. Photo Credit: Argonne National Laboratory. In addition to the setup shown in Figure 2, time resolution at BioCARS is provided by precise synchronization of additional beam blocking equipment placed before the sample under test—two rotating disk choppers and a shutter [2]. The X-ray beam is intercepted by a watercooled heat load chopper wh...

A new homocysteine-selective sensor based on the iridium(III) complex Ir(pba)2(acac) (Hpba = 4-(2-pyridyl)benzaldehyde; acac = acetylacetone) was synthesized, and its' photophysical properties were studied. Upon the addition of homocysteine (Hcy) to a semi-aqueous solution of Ir(pba)2(acac), a color change from orange to yellow and a luminescent variation from deep red to green were evident to ...

Os complexos [Co(acac) 2 ], [Co(acac) 3 ], [Fe(acac) 3 ] e [Ni(acac) 2 ] (acac = acetilacetonato) dissolvidos em tetrafluoroborato de 1-butil-3-metilimidazônio (1), trifluorometanosulfonato de 1butil-3-metilimidazólio (2) ou hexafluorofosfato de 1-butil-3-metilimidazólio (3), catalisam a hidrogenação de 1,3-butadieno em butenos em sistema catalítico tipicamente bifásico. A conversão do 1,3-buta...

The catalyst formation in the system Ni(acac),, C&I,, (iBu)sAl was investigated by means of infrared spectroscopy. It was found that the Al(acac)s and (iBu)&l(acac) formed are both by-products of catalyst formation without a catalytic activity. Ni(acac)z loses its acac groups forming the unstable (iBu)sNi compound; without CsH, being present, this compound disproportionates to Ni metal and isob...

The dinuclear title complex, [Co2(C5H7O2)4(μ-OH)2] or [Co(acac)2(μ-OH)]2, where acac is acetyl-acetonate, is centrosymmetric with half of the mol-ecule per asymmetric unit. The mol-ecular structure is a dimer of octa-hedrally coordinated Co(III) atoms with four O atoms from two chelating acac ligands and two O atoms from bridging hydroxide ligands. The crystal packing features weak C-H⋯O inter-...

Central nervous system oxygen toxicity (CNS-OT) seizures occur with little or no warning, and no effective mitigation strategy has been identified. Ketogenic diets (KD) elevate blood ketones and have successfully treated drug-resistant epilepsy. We hypothesized that a ketone ester given orally as R,S-1,3-butanediol acetoacetate diester (BD-AcAc(2)) would delay CNS-OT seizures in rats breathing ...

Figure S1. Density of states (DOS) for the periodic structures of TiO2 anatase (a), phenyl-acac-TiO2 (b), and 3-acac-pyran-2-one-TiO2 (c), calculated at the extended Hückel level. The filled black lines in (b)-(c) are the projected DOS of the dye chromophores. The blue arrows point to the electronic states with a predominant contribution of HOMO, and the red arrows point to the electronic state...
