the formation of charge-transfer complexation between dibenzo-15-crown-5 (db15c5) and benzo-12-crown-4 (b12c4) (donor) and iodine is investigated spectrophotometrically in three chlorinated solvents,chloroform, dichloromethane (dcm) and 1,2-dichloroethane (dce) solution at 25°c. the change in polarityof the solvent also doesn’t affect the stoichiometry of the complexes. values of formation cons...

Here we describe the synthesis of two imido analogs of the uranyl ion, UO(2+)2, in which the oxygens are replaced by divalent alkyl or aryl nitrogen groups: U(NtBu)2I2(THF)2 (1) and U(NPh)2I2(THF)3 (2) (where tBu is tert-butyl and THF is tetrahydrofuran). Both compounds have been fully characterized by standard analytical techniques, including x-ray crystallography, and the chemical bonding bet...

The palladium(II) chlorostibine complex [PdCl2(SbMe2Cl)2]2 has a dimeric structure in the solid state, stabilized by hyper-coordination at the Lewis amphoteric Sb centers. Reaction with 8 equiv of MeLi forms [Pd4(μ3-SbMe3)4(SbMe3)4], whose structure comprises a tetrahedral Pd(0) core with four terminal SbMe3 ligands and four μ3-SbMe3 ligands, one capping each triangular Pd3 face. Density functi...

In the title complex, {[Pr(C(2)O(4))(1.5)(H(2)O)(2)]·H(2)O}(n), the Pr(III) ion, which lies on a crystallographic inversion centre, is coordinated by seven O atoms from four oxalate ligands and two O atoms from two water ligands; further Pr-O coordination from tetra-dentate oxalate ligands forms a three-dimensional structure. The compound crystallized as a monohydrate, the water mol-ecule occup...

Chemical studies have been carried out on the interaction of DNA with uranyl salts. The effect of variations in pH, salt concentration, and structural integrity of the DNA on the stoichiometry of the salt-substrate complex have been investigated. At pH 3.5 DNA interacts with uranyl ions in low concentration yielding a substrate metal ion complex with a UO(2) (++)/P mole ratio of about (1/2) and...
