The interactions of aniline with soil at an industrial spill site were investigated. Sorption of aniline to the soil was observed to occur through a two-step mechanism. The first step was an ion exchange process with the protonated amine serving as an organic cation. This step was influenced by solution pH and ionic composition. The second step was covalent bonding most likely with quinone moie...

Background: In this present work, we synthesized zero-valent iron nanoparticles (ZVIN) using reproducible Calotropis gigantea (CG) flower extract served as both reducing and stabilizing agent by completely green approach. ZVIN are widely used in contaminated water treatment and can be prepared by several different methods. Method: Iron nanoparticles formed in this method are mainly ZVIN and wer...

The unsymmetrical α-di-imine ligand N-{2-[2,6-bis-(propan-2-yl)phenylimino]pentan-3-yl-idene}-2,6-bis-(propan-2-yl)aniline, [ArN=C(Me)-(Et)C=NAr] [Ar = 2,6-(iPr)2C6H3], (I), and the corresponding palladium complex, cis-(N-{2-[2,6-bis-(propan-2-yl)phenylimino]pentan-3-yl-idene}-2,6-bis-(propan-2-yl)aniline)di-chlor-ido-palladium(II) 1,2-di-chloro-ethane monosolvate, [PdCl2(C29H42N2)]·C2H4Cl2 or ...

Particulars of Microorganism and Its Cultivation-The strain of A. czcetigenum used was NCIB 8132 from the National Collection of Industrial Bacteria, Department of Scientific and Industrial Research, Teddington, Middlesex, England. The defined medium, made with distilled water, contained (grams per liter): KHZPOI, 2.0; MgS04.7 HSO, 1.0; FeS04.7 HZO, 0.01; (NH&HP04, 2.5; calcium n-pantothenate, ...

Rubrivivax benzoatilyticus JA2 and other anoxygenic photosynthetic bacteria produce indole derivatives when exposed to aniline, a xenobiotic compound. Though this phenomenon has been reported previously, the role of aniline in the production of indoles is still a biochemical riddle. The present study aims at understanding the specific role of aniline (as precursor or stimulator) in the producti...

Infrared photodissociation spectra of aniline+–M (M = thiophene, furan and phenol) are measured in the 2700–3700 cm–1 region and analyzed by density functional theory calculations. Only a structure with a π-type hydrogen bond is found for aniline+–thiophene. Two structural isomers are identified for aniline+–furan and aniline+–phenol, which have either a π-type or a σ-type hydrogen bond, where ...

FOR solving certain anatomical problems in free-living nematodes serial sections are necessary. Various methods of orientation proved unsatisfactory for these small objects (in this case 700^ in length and 30/x in width). The following method was worked out and found excellent: In a drop of water the nematode is heat-paralysed, stretched at 50-6o° C , and pipetted into Bouin's mixture (Graupner...

The effects of hydroalcoholic (80% ethanol-20% water) extract of Urtica dioica L. on microsomal aniline 4-hydroxylase (A4H) were investigated in the liver of Swiss albino mice (8- 10-weeks-old) treated with two doses (50 and 100 mg/kg body weight, given orally for 14 days ). The activities of A4H showed a significant increase in the liver at both dose levels of extract treatment. The hydroalcoh...
