The reaction between bis(p-methoxyphenyl)telluroxide and various substituted phenylhydrazines has recently been reported [1]. In this reaction the phenylhydrazines are converted to the corresponding hydrocarbons and nitrogen, also producing bis(p-methoxyphenyl)telluride and an unsymmetrical telluride, resulting form aryl exchange. As a part of our investigation of the reactions of tellurium dio...

To synthesize ligands that are capable of coordinating two metals, 1,4-dilithiumbenzene and 4,4′-dilithiumbiphenyl were reacted with different sulfurdiimides to give coupled diimidosulfinates. [(THF)4Li2{(NSiMe3)2S}2biphenyl] (1) and [(THF)1.5Li2{(NSiMe3)2S}2biphenyl]∞ (2) could be isolated and structurally characterized. While 1 forms distinct molecules in the solid state, 2 crystallizes in in...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE We recently reported that delayed lithium therapy can improve stroke recovery in rats by augmenting neurovascular remodeling. We tested the hypothesis that lithium can promote the expression of growth factors in brain endothelial cells and astrocytes. METHODS Human brain microvascular endothelial cells and primary rat cortical astrocytes were exposed to lithium chloride...

Lithium is the most commonly used drug for the treatment of manic depressive illness. The precise mechanisms underlying its clinical efficacy remain unknown. We found that long-term exposure to lithium chloride dramatically protects cultured rat cerebellar, cerebral cortical, and hippocampal neurons against glutamate-induced excitotoxicity, which involves apoptosis mediated by N-methyl-D-aspart...

The abundant use of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) in a wide variety electric devices and vehicles will generate large number depleted batteries, which contain several valuable metals, such as Li, Co, Mn, Ni, present the structure cathode material (LiMO2). work investigates extraction lithium, lithium chloride, from spent LIBs by carbochlorination roasting. starting samples consisted mixture anod...

The effect of changes of dietary sodium chloride intake and posture on plasma atrial natriuretic peptide concentration and renal function was studied in 11 normal human volunteers. Plasma atrial natriuretic peptide concentration was higher in the upright posture on a high than it was on a medium or low salt diet. On the medium and high but not on the low salt diet the concentration increased si...
