In the title compound, C(14)H(30)N(2) (2+)·2Cl(-), the N,N'-dicyclo-hexyl-ethyl-enediammonium cation posseses crystallographic symmetry, and thus the compound crystallizes with two formula units per unit cell. In the crystal, the cations and anions are linked by N-H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds, giving a two-dimensional network with {6,3} topology.

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C(8)H(14)N(2) (2+)·2Cl(-), contains one and a half of the dications and three chloride anions. The half molecule is completed by crystallographic twofold symmetry with two C atoms lying on the rotation axis. The two ammonium groups in each cation adopt a trans conformation with respect ot the benzene ring. The ammonium groups and chloride anions are in...

Background: Paraquat dichloride is a highly toxic herbicide which is still used in many developing countries. African cat fish (Clarias gariepinus) is a commercially important species in many countries and was selected assess accumulation and elimination of paraquat dichloride in its tissues. Methods: Groups of ten fish with equal lengths and weights were exposed to varying concentrations of Pa...

Some new bulky fluorinated diphosphines have been prepared and converted to palladium dichloride complexes that have been found to give increased regioselectivity and activity over other Pd-diphosphine systems when used as catalysts for hydroxycarbonylation of styrene.

The anticancer activity of titanium complexes has been known since the groundbreaking studies of Köpf and Köpf-Maier on titanocen dichloride. Unfortunately, possibly due to their fast hydrolysis, derivatives of titanocen dichloride failed in clinical studies. Recently, the new family of titanium salan complexes containing tetradentate ONNO ligands with anti-cancer properties has been discovered...

Ambient ionization mass spectrometry is achieved in a simple manner by loading a sample solution onto a corner of a microscope cover glass positioned in front of the inlet to a mass spectrometer and applying a high voltage to the sample. The resulting stream of charged droplets is stable, has no contamination from the substrate platform, and can be used repeatedly. The utility of droplet spray ...

Nickel(II) complexes have attracted much attention as a new generation of olefin catalysts since the α-diiminonickel complex was discovered as a highly efficient procatalyst for ethylene polymerization. A series of novel 4-arylimino-1,2,3-trihydroacridylnickel(II) dihalide complexes was synthesized in a one-pot reaction of 2,3-dihydroacridine-4-one and different anilines with nickel(II) chlorid...

The title compound, [Sn(C(4)H(9))(C(13)H(21)N)Cl(3)]·CH(2)Cl(2), was obtained by recrystallization of [2-(diisopropyl-amino-meth-yl)phen-yl]tin(IV) butyl dichloride from a CH(2)Cl(2)/n-hexane mixture (1:4 v/v) in the presence of ambient moisture. Partial hydrolysis led to the title compound, the hydro-chloric acid adduct of the dichloride, having a penta-coordinated Sn atom with a trigonal-bipy...

Bis(1-methylethenyl-cyclopentadienyl)zirconium dichloride (7a) was prepared by a fulvene route. Photolysis at 0 degrees C with Pyrex-filtered UV light resulted in a rapid and complete intramolecular [2+2]cycloaddition reaction to yield the corresponding cyclobutylene-bridged ansa-zirconocene dichloride isomer (8a). This is one of the rare examples of an organic functional group chemistry that l...

In the course of a study of the effects of micro-beam irradiation of a small portion of a particular cell in culture, it became necessary to devise a technic for following this cell through the processes of fixation and subsequent embedding for electron microtomy. The new procedure has proved more satisfactory for our purposes than the methods previously described by Borysko and Sapranauskas (1...
