Quantitative studies of the saliva have, in the past, been concerned chiefly with the thiocyanate content and the reaction toward indicators. Comparatively few reports of investigations of the organic constituents are to be found and, of these, very few furnish any quantitative data. This is hardly surprising when one considers that, until the development of the microchemical methods which has ...

The optical, structural and charge transport properties of solution-processed films of copper(I) thiocyanate (CuSCN) are investigated in this work. As-processed CuSCN films of ~20 nm in thickness are found to be nano-crystalline, highly transparent and exhibit intrinsic hole transporting characteristics with a maximum field-effect mobility in the range of 0.01-0.1 cm(2) V(-1) s(-1).

The synthesis of two new thiocyanate free Ru(II) complexes with different pyrid-2-yl tetrazolate ligands is reported, along with their electrochemical, spectroscopic and theoretical characterization. The corresponding dye-sensitized solar cell devices were prepared, leading to 3.4% conversion efficiency, promising data, considering the simplicity of the ligands and the high chemical stability o...

Palladium-catalyzed asymmetric allylic alkylation (AAA) of vinyl benzoxazinanones has become an important strategy for the synthesis chiral nitrogen-containing heterocycle compounds. However, linear-selective products rarely been reported. The simultaneous control regio-, E / Z - and enantioselectivities constitutes a major challenge inhibits advancement this chemistry. Herein, we present palla...

We describe the structural and variable temperature magnetic susceptibility properties of an unusual homoleptic bimetallic iron(III) thiocyanate tetraanion. This work represents the first structurally characterized bis(μ-1,3-thiocyanato) dimer of iron(III). A weak antiferromagnetic exchange interaction is observed between the two iron(III) ions, which is supported by broken symmetry density fun...
