Syntheses and structural characterization of New Tl + and K + complexes of 3,5-dinitrobenzoic acid (HDNB), [Tl(μ-DNB)] n and [K(μ-DNB)(μ-HDNB)] n

Two new Tl⁺ and K⁺ complexes of 3,5-dinitrobenzoic acid (HDNB), [Tl(μ-DNB)] _n and [K(μ-DNB)(μ-HDNB)] _n have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR, ¹H NMR and ¹³C NMR spectroscopy. Determination of the structure of the [K(μ-DNB)(μ-HDNB)] _n and [Tl(μ-DNB)] _n by X-ray crystallography shows that there are nine coordinate K atoms (KO₉) and eight coordinate Tl atoms (TlO₈). The [Tl(μ-DNB)] _n and [K(μ-DNB)(μ-HDNB)] _n complexes are 2D and 3D coordination polymers, respectively.     

Novel non-aggregated soluble metallophthalocyanines bearing carboxylic acid groups

Synthesis and characterization of zinc and cobalt phthalocyanines substituted with biphenylmethylpropionic acids, methyl-o-tolylpropionic acids, and methyl-p-tolylpropionic acids are described in this study. The new compounds have been characterized by elemental analyses, FT-IR, UV-Vis, MALDI-TOF, and ¹H NMR spectroscopy. All new compounds are soluble in THF, DMF, DMSO, and dilute sodium hydroxide solution. The influence of the carboxylic acid and bulky biphenyl, ortho-methylbenzyl and para-methylbenzyl groups on the spectroscopic properties has been investigated. UV-Vis experiments suggest that the tendency of phthalocyanines to aggregate in polar solvents is significantly reduced owing to the carboxylic acid groups and bulky peripheral substituents.     

Spectroscopic studies and crystal structure of a dimeric Zn(II) complex with diethyl (pyridin-2-ylmethyl)phosphate

The crystal structure of [Zn₂(2-pmOpe)₂Cl₄] (2-pmOpe?=?diethyl (pyridin-2-ylmethyl)phosphate) was determined by X-ray-diffraction method. The compound was also characterized by IR, far-IR, 1H, and ³¹P NMR spectroscopy. In this compound, 2-pmOpe is a bidentate N,O-bridging ligand and Zn(II) are slightly distorted tetrahedral ZnNOCl₂. Zn(II) ions are doubly bridged by the 2-pmOpe ligands, resulting in a dinuclear species. The structure is stabilized by intermolecular C–H?···?O and C–H?···?Cl hydrogen bonds. The spectral properties are in agreement with the structural data.     

A new stable porous Pr-organic framework constructed by multi-iodine-substituted aromatic polycarboxylates: Synthesis,characterization, and selective adsorption of dyes

abstract

Poly[tris(dimethylformamide)(μ3-2,4,6-triiodol-1,3,5-benzene tricarboxylic acid)-praseodymium (III)] {Pr(TIBTC)(DMF)₃}_n (1) (H₃TIBTC = 2,4,6-triiodo-1,3,5-benzene tricarboxylic acid) was synthesized by the reaction of Pr(NO₃)₃·6H₂O and H₃TIBTC at 85°C in a pyrex vial. 1 was characterized by elemental analysis, IR, UV–vis, TGA, PXRD, and atomic force microscopy analytical means. Each of the central Pr ions and the three carboxyl groups from the same ligand constitute a SBU, which is then joined by a carboxyl group to form a building block. In order to further explore the functional properties of 1, we used this compound for adsorption experiments. It is found that 1 can effectively adsorb anionic dyes in aqueous solutions. In particular, there is a good adsorption efficiency for coomassie brilliant blue R-250. Therefore, 1 shows good prospects for selective adsorption of anionic dyes from wastewater solution.     

Synthesis and crystal structure of bis(m-hydroxybenzoato(1-))bis(benzimidazole) copper(II) dihydrate

The crystal structure of the title complex was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods. The unit cell contains two independent molecules, A and B. B is a mononuclear Cu(II) complex with square-planar coordination geometry formed by two benzimidazole molecules and two hydroxylbenzoate anions. A is a dimer of B, formed by bridging hydroxybenzoate, and copper assumes square-pyramidal geometry. Aromatic π–π stacking is observed between parallel benzimidazole rings of neighboring A molecules. IR spectra of the compound are assigned in line with the crystal structure.     

Some MnIII-porphyrins with de-polymerization activity toward humic acid

Four Mn^III-porphyrin complexes, chloro(tetraphenylporphinato)Mn^III(1,6-diaminohexane), bromo(tetraphenylporphinato)Mn^III(1,6-diaminohexane), azido(tetraphenylporphinato)Mn^III(1,6-diaminohexane), and thiocyanato(tetraphenylporphinato)Mn^III(1,6-diaminohexane), have been synthesized. These complexes have been characterized using UV-Vis, IR, ESI-mass spectra, elemental analyses, magnetic susceptibility measurements, and conductivity measurement. The molar conductance values of these complexes in ethanol indicate non-electrolytes. The utility of these complexes in de-polymerization of coal using humic acid as the coal model has been tested by the optical density method.     

Spondias mombin L. as a green corrosion inhibitor for aluminium in sulphuric acid: Correlation between inhibitive effect and electronic properties of extracts major constituents using density functional theory

The inhibition of aluminium in 0.5 M H₂SO₄ by extracts of Spondias mombin L. was investigated using the standard gravimetric technique at 30–60 °C. The trend of inhibition efficiency with temperature was used to propose the mechanism of inhibition. It was found that the S. mombin L. extract acts as an inhibitor for acid-induced corrosion of aluminium. Inhibition efficiency (%I) of the extract increased with an increase in concentration of the S. mombin L. extract but decreased with temperature. Furthermore, inhibition efficiency (%I) synergistically increased on addition of potassium iodide. Inhibitor adsorption characteristics were approximated by Langmuir adsorption isotherm at all the concentrations and temperatures studied. The mechanism of physical adsorption is proposed from the trend of inhibition efficiency with temperature and from the calculated values of Gibbs free energy, activation energy and heat of adsorption. Quantum chemical calculations were performed using the density functional theory at B3LYP/6-31G (d) level of theory to find out whether a clear link exists between the inhibitive effect of the extract and the electronic properties of its main constituents.     

饲料中补充晶体蛋氨酸和羟基蛋氨酸钙对罗氏沼虾幼虾生长性能的影响

饲料中添加30%鱼粉为对照组饲料和6组试验饲料(分别替代对照组中16.67%、33.33%和50.00%的鱼粉,同一鱼粉替代水平的2组分别添加晶体蛋氨酸和羟基蛋氨酸钙,使其蛋氨酸含量与对照组一致)喂养罗氏沼虾(初始体重为(0.29±0.04) g )10周,研究不同鱼粉替代水平下,分别添加晶体蛋氨酸和羟基蛋氨酸钙对罗氏沼虾幼虾生长性能和血清生化指标的影响.结果表明：复合蛋白源替代对照组16.67%鱼粉并补充羟基蛋氨酸钙组的增重率、特定生长率、蛋白质效率和饲料系数同对照组无显著差异(P>0.05);同一鱼粉替代水平下,羟基蛋氨酸钙组的增重率、特定生长率和蛋白质效率均显著高于晶体蛋氨酸组(P<0.05).血清生化组成的分析结果表明：血清总蛋白含量各处理组之间差异显著(P<0.05),对照组血清谷草转氨酶和谷丙转氨酶活力显著低于其他各组(P<0.05),其中同一替代水平下,饲料中添加羟基蛋氨酸钙组谷草转氨酶和谷丙转氨酶活力低于添加晶体蛋氨酸组.由此可见,与晶体蛋氨酸相比,羟基蛋氨酸钙能更有效提高罗氏沼虾生长性能和饲料利用效率.
