Reaction of Dy(hfac)(3)·2H(2)O (hfac = hexafluoroacetyl acetonate) with 2-(2-hydroxyphenyl)nitronyl nitroxide (NITPhOH) and 2-(5-bromo-2-hydroxyphenyl)nitronyl nitroxide (NIT5BrPhOH) yielded [Dy(2)(hfac)(4)(NITPhO)(2)] 1 and [Dy(2)(hfac)(4)(NIT5BrPhO)(2)] 2, respectively. These compounds are phenoxo-O bridged binuclear complexes with the radical unit of a ligand coordinated to a single Dy. The ...

Background: Molybden, as a vital and essential micronutrient is directly involved in the metabolism of other elements including carbon, sulfur, and nitrogen. Molybdenum alone is not biologically active unless it binds to specific cofactors. Except for the bacterial nitrogenase, which contains molybdenum-Iron complex, molybdenum cofactor (Moco) is considered as the bioactive component placed in ...

the reduction mechanism of molybdenum-methyl thymol blue (mtb)-chlorate system has been investigated in water on a mercury electrode. as this system is very sensitive for ultratrace determination of molybdenum, the actual mechanism involved was studied. electrochemical techniques, including dc tast polarography and cyclic voltammetry were employed. it is shown that, the cathodic wave of molybde...

Selenium and molybdenum are essential trace elements. Considering the characteristics of selenium and molybdenum, our research had the following purposes for both elements: Considering Se the uptake of selenium was investigatein maize and sunflower seedling, moreover the different effect of two selenium species (selenite and selenite) for the examined plants (a monocotyledon (maize, Zea mays L....

A molybdenum cofactor which is capable of reconstituting demolybdosulfite oxidase purified from livers of tungstentreated rats has been identified in rat liver and various organisms. Reconstitution with the rat liver cofactor is directly proportional to cofactor and demolybdoenzyme concentrations and proceeds most efficiently in 0.01 M potassium phosphate buffer, pH 7.4. The activation process ...

1. The effect ofdietary molybdenum on the growth rate and also on ascorbic acid metabolism in rats was studied. An excess of dietary molybdenum resulted in growth retardation and loss of weight. Tolerance to molybdenum was affected by the nature ofthe molybdenum salt administered. 2. Molybdenum ingestion altered certain aspects of ascorbic acid metabolism in rats. The conversion ofD-glucuronola...

Molybdenum, applied in vivo, restored the damage from low temperature with winter wheat (Triticum aestivum, var "Sadovo 1") grown on acid soil and, in addition, sharply increased productivity (G Salcheva, D Georgieva, 1982; G Salcheva et al., 1977, 1979). Two fractions with molybdenum-cofactor activity in seeds were detected. One of them has a molecular weight of about 230 kilodaltons correspon...

Molybdenum reduction to molybdenum blue by microbes is a potential bioremediation tool for molybdenum pollution. A previous work using cyanide as a respiratory inhibitor has shown that the site of molybdenum reduction in Enterobacter cloacae strain 48 is at the electron transport pathway. In the present work, several respiratory inhibitors together with cyanide were used to reinvestigate the si...

in the present study, nanocrystalline ni50al50-xmox (x = 0, 0.5, 1, 2.5, 5) intermetallic compound was produced through mechanical alloying of nickel, aluminum, and molybdenum powders. alni compounds with good and attractive properties such as high melting point, high strength to weight ratio and high corrosion resistance especially at high temperatures have attracted the attention of many rese...

A manganese(II) acetylacetonate complex has been immobilized to the metal-organic framework IRMOF-3 through a one-step post-synthetic route for the first time, providing an effective and recyclable heterogeneous catalyst for epoxidation of alkenes.
