A new tris-(2-aminoethyl)amine (TREN) capped tripodal Schiff base ligand has been developed by mimicking structural features of a natural siderophore, Bacillibactin, by substituting the catechol units with salicylaldehyde and employing amino acid as spacer. Synthesis of the ligand N-[2-[bis[2-[[2-[(2-hydroxyphenyl)methylamino]acetyl] amino]ethyl]amino]ethyl]-2-[(2-hydroxyphenyl)methylamino]...

Experiments were carried out to study the rate of PCDD/F formation from carbon on fly ash. The formation follows first order behaviour during the first part of the experiment. With longer reaction times, degradation reactions become more important. Rate constants found were in between 0.01-0.04 min -1.

The formation and structure of inclusion complexes of αand β-cyclodextrins with 2-chlorophenol (2CP), 3-chlorophenol (3CP), 4-chlorophenol (4CP), 2,4-dichlorophenol (24DCP), 2,6-dichlorophenol (26DCP) and 3,4-dichlorophenol (34DCP) have been studied by UV-VIS and 1H NMR spectroscopy. Both cyclodextrins were found to form 1 : 1 inclusion complexes. Binding constants estimated from titration stud...

The formation and liquid-liquid extraction of ion-association complexes between gallium(III)-4-(2-pyridylazo)resorcinol (PAR) anionic chelates and cations of four ditetrazolium chlorides (DT2+) were studied: Neotetrazolium chloride (NTC), Blue Tetrazolium chloride (BTC), Nitro Blue Tetrazolium chloride (NBT) and Tetranitro Blue Tetrazolium chloride (TNBT). The optimum extraction-spectrophotomet...
