two new nano-sized lead(ii) and mercury(ii) coordination polymers, [pb(2-bpdh)(no3)2(h2o)]n(1); (2-bpdh = 2,5-bis(2-pyridyl)-3,4-diaza-2,4-hexadiene)} and [hg(4-bpdb)(scn)2]n (2); (4-bpdb= 1,4-bis(4-pyridyl)-3,4-diaza-1,3-butadiene) were synthesized by a sonochemical method. the structure of 1 may be considered coordination polymer of lead(ii) and single crystal x–ray analysis of compound 2reve...

[Pb(gly)2]n (1) (gly is the abbreviation of Glycine) have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analyses, IR, 1H NMR and 13C NMR spectroscopy. The single crystal structure of 1 show the complex is 2D coordination polymer with octahedral environment that is formed into 3D supramolecule through hydrogen bond. Structural determination of compound 1 reveals the Pb(II) ion is four coordina...

A novel complex of cadmium (II) [CdL0.5(NO3)(H2O)](1), L= N,N-bis (O-hydroxyacetophenone) ethylene diamine, have been synthesized as single crystal and nano size. Compound 1 in nano size was obtained under sonochemical irradiation and has been characterized by IR, 1HNMR spectroscopy, X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) and scanni...

Three new Cd(II) metal-organic coordination polymers, [Cd(bbi)(DNBA)2] (1), [Cd(bbbi)(DNBA)2] (2), and [Cd(dmbbbi)(DNBA)Cl]·0.38H2O (3) [HDNBA = 3,5-dinitrobenzoic acid, bbi = 1,1-(1,4-butanediyl)bis(imidazole), bbbi = 1,1-(1,4-butanediyl)bis(benzimidazole), and dmbbbi = 1,1-(1,4-butanediyl)bis(5,6-dimethylbenzimidazole)], have been obtained from hydrothermal reactions of cadmium(II) chloride w...

A series of linear coordination polymers, metallacycles of cadmium(II) and mercury(II) of flexible carboxylic acid ligands, RCH{3-CH(3)-,5-CH(3)-,6-(-OCH(2)CO(2)H)C(6)H(2)}(2), (when R = C(6)H(5), (H(2)L(1)); 2-NO(2)C(6)H(4)- (H(2)L(2)) and 3-NO(2)C(6)H(4)- (H(2)L(3))) are synthesized and characterized. [CdL(1) (py)(3)](n)·3nH(2)O (py = pyridine) is a linear coordination polymer, whereas [CdL(2...

The title polymeric compound, [Cd(C(7)H(3)NO(4))(H(2)O)(3)](n) or [Cd(py-2,3-dc)(H(2)O)(3)](n), where py-2,3-dcH(2) is pyridine-2,3-dicarboxylic acid, was obtained by the reaction of cadmium(II) nitrate hexa-hydrate with (pipzH(2))(py-2,3-dc) as a proton-transfer compound in aqueous solution (pipz is piperazine). The mol-ecular structure shows that only the anionic fragment of the starting prot...

A cadmium-binding protein was isolated from roots of the grass Agrostis gigantea Roth. Heat-stable proteins were chromatographed on the anion exchanger QAE-Sephadex A-25. The major cadmium fraction was purified further by gel filtration on Sephadex G-75 in 1 molar KCl buffer. The resulting protein preparation was light brown, had an apparent molecular weight of 3700, contained 29% cysteine and ...

HYPOTHESIS Phosphate influences the sorption of metals to iron (hydr)oxides. An enhanced formation of inner-sphere complexes on the (hydr)oxide surface can be attributed to electrostatic interactions and/or to changes in metal coordination on the iron (hydr)oxide surface. Phosphate was expected to increase cadmium(II) sorption on ferrihydrite. It should be possible to identify changes in cadmiu...
