Impedometric monitoring of the behavior of the supported liquid membrane in electromembrane extraction systems: An insight into the origin of optimized experimental parameters

Electromembrane extraction (EME) was carried out using a novel instrumentation capable of impedometric monitoring of the system during the extraction. This instrumentation involves a classical two-electrode assembly fed by two time-resolved potential functions, the first for the extraction of analyte and the second for obtaining the impedance information. The impedometric analysis of the system was achieved by Laplace transformation of the current recorded during the extraction. It has been shown that the obtained impedance information can be converted to very useful knowledge about time dependence of double layer capacitance, kinetics of analyte depletion, total permeability of the SLM and the effect of experimental parameters on system behavior. It has also been shown that the impedance analysis is a powerful tool for the estimation of optimum experimental parameters without determination of analyte in the acceptor phase.

Solvent and substitution effects on the structure and properties of a half-sandwich complex of vanadium with a terminal borylene ligand: Theoretical study

The structures and properties of a terminal borylene vanadium complexes CpV(CO)₃(BNH₂) were explored using theoretical methods. The density of states (DOS) was beneficially used to analyze the main features of electronic structure. The influence of solvent on the structural parameters, frontier orbital energies and wavelength absorption maxima (λ_max) of this structure was studied. These calculations were performed in different solvents, i.e. cyclohexane, dichloromethane, tetrahydrofuran, chlorobenzene, and chloroform, utilizing the self-consistent reaction field (SCRF) theory. Also, substituent effect in CpV(CO)₃(BNR₂) complexes on the structure and properties was investigated.
