The bonding strength and interfacial electronic properties of biphenyldimethyldithiol (HS– CH2–C6H4–C6H4–CH2–SH) adsorbed on Au(111) and polycrystalline cobalt are identifi ed from combined photoemission and inverse photoemission. In order to develop a better understanding of the thiol functional group to metal surface interaction, the stable orientation, bonding site, bonding strength and inte...

In this work we present the synthesis, structural and spectroscopic characterization of Co(2+) coordination compounds with ethyl 4-methyl-5-imidazolecarboxylate (emizco). The effects of emizco, the metal salts CoCl(2).6H(2)O, CoBr(2), Co(NO(3))(2).6H(2)O and their metal coordination compounds [Co(emizco)(2)Cl(2)], [Co(emizco)(2) Br(2)].H(2)O, [Co(emizco)(2) (H(2)O)(2)(NO(2))(2).2H(2)O were eval...

   Surfaces of synthesis cobalt disulfide has high electron density that could interact with polycyclic aromatic compounds by π-π stacking. Cobalt disulfide was synthesized with the hydrothermal method and characterized by field emission scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction and energy-dispersive X-ray. Using tetracycline as a model analyte, the batch adsorption experiments were c...

Among the fundamental transformations that comprise a catalytic cycle for cross coupling, transmetalation from the nucleophile to the metal catalyst is perhaps the least understood. Optimizing this elementary step has enabled the first example of a cobalt-catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura cross coupling between aryl triflate electrophiles and heteroaryl boron nucleophiles. Key to this discovery was the ...

one of the best and the most active ways for surveying thermal behaviour of materials is using differential scanning calorimetry. in this paper, the authors have studied thermal behaviour for schiff base ligand and their synthesized cobalt, nickel complexes. in this method, the sample is opposed to a controlled temperature change and its physical properties. here we studied melting point and tg...

Sm2Fe17 compounds are high-performance permanent magnets. Cobalt substitution allows us to further improve their magnetic properties. Depending on the thermal treatment, cobalt-substituted can be synthesized either in TbCu7 (disordered) or Th2Zn17 (ordered) structure type. Rietveld refinement of number transition metal dumbbells replacing rare-earth atoms from synchrotron powder diffraction dat...

A stereoselective total synthesis of the natural antibiotic (-)-8-O-methyltetrangomycin 1 is reported. The essential steps for this convergent synthesis are the transformation of a geraniol epoxide into a chiral octadiyne derivative, which was converted into a triyne. The cobalt-mediated [2+2+2] cycloaddition of the triyne led to a benz[a]anthracene system, which was oxidized with Ag(Py)(2)MnO(...

On irradiation in the presence of Fe(CO)(5) under a CO atmosphere, the alkenyl cyclopropane 2 underwent smooth ring expansion to give the sesquiterpene (-)-delobabone 3. The alkenyl cyclopropane 2 was prepared from the enantiomerically enriched epoxide 1.
