A metallosupramolecular [Pd2L4](4+) cage can be cleanly converted into a [Pd2L2Cl4] metallo-macrocycle upon addition of chloride ions. The process is reversible, treatment of the [Pd2L2Cl4] macrocycle with silver(I) ions regenerates the [Pd2L4](4+) cage. Additionally, it is shown that guest molecules could be released on chloride triggered cage dis-assembly and taken up anew on re-assembly.

Deposition of chloride ions in the surface layer of concrete is investigated in this study. In real concrete structure, chloride ions from the service environment can penetrate into concrete and deposit in the surface layer, to form the boundary condition for further diffusion towards the interior. The deposit amount of chloride ions in the surface layer is normally a function of time, rather t...

calcium dichloride tetra urea was prepared by the reaction of calcium chloride with urea in aqueous solution. the crystals are monoclinic, a= 7.633, b= 12.45 1, c= 8.118 ?,? = 113.17, z = 4, space group p 2,/a. the crystal structure was determined by single crystal x-ray methods and refined to r= 0.041. the calcium atoms are coordinated to four oxygen atoms of urea and to two chloride ions. the...

In the title compound, [AgCl(C(2)H(2)N(2)S(2))](n), the Ag(I) ion has a distorted tetra-hedral geometry, defined by two S atoms of two symmetry-related 1,3,4-thia-diazo-lium-2-thiol-ate ligands and two chloride ions. The Ag(I) ions are bridged into a two-dimensional network parallel to the ab plane by chloride ions and thia-diazole ligands. In the network, the Ag(I) ions are separated by 4.0316...

Chloride ion sensing is important in many fields such as clinical diagnosis, environmental monitoring and industrial applications. We have measured chloride ions at a carbon paste electrode (CPE) and at a CPE modified with solid AgNO₃, a solution of AgNO₃ and/or solid silver particles. Detection limits (3 S/N) for chloride ions were 100 μM, 100 μM and 10 μM for solid AgNO₃, solution of AgNO₃ an...

The influence of halide ions on the photocatalytic process on titanium dioxide has been investigated carefully. Chloride and bromide ions, acting as hole scavengers, generate active radical species (e.g., ·Cl and ·Br) that participate in reactions with the organic compounds and the transient intermediates. Chloride and bromide ions have shown to deeply inhibit the degradation rate of chloroform...

Fenton oxidation is generally inhibited in the presence of a high concentration of chloride ions. This study investigated the feasibility of using benzoquinone (BQ) and hydroxylamine hydrochloride (HA) as Fenton enhancers for the removal of glycerin from saline water under ambient temperature by accelerating the ferric system. It was found that organics removal was not obviously affected by chl...

Facilitated transport through polymer inclusion membranes (PIMs) is a promising method for simultaneous separation and removal of valuable and toxic metal ions from aqueous solutions. Recently, ionic liquids (ILs) have been used as extracting agents for metal ions due to their unique physicochemical properties. This paper presents research on the facilitated transport of cadmium(II) and copper(...
