Reaction of the n = 2 Ruddlesden−Popper phase YSr 2 Mn 2 O 7 with NaH at 225 °C yields the topotactically reduced phase YSr 2 Mn 2 O 5.43(3) ( a = 3.62043(4) Å, c = 22.3570(3) Å). Combination of this reduced phase with the stoichiometric starting material at 400 °C yields intermediate phases: YSr 2 Mn 2 O 6.54(3) ( a…

A convenient synthesis of (t)Bu(3)SiSH and (t)Bu(3)SiSNa(THF)(x)() led to the exploration of "(t)Bu(3)SiSMX" aggregation. The dimer, [((t)Bu(3)SiS)Fe](2)(mu-SSi(t)Bu(3))(2) (1(2)), was formed from [{(Me(3)Si)(2)N}Fe](2)(mu-N(SiMe(3))(2))(2) and the thiol, and its dissolution in THF generated ((t)Bu(3)SiS)(2)Fe(THF)(2)…

We report magnetic and magnetic circular dichroism investigations of a binuclear Co(II) compound. The Hamiltonian of the system involves an isotropic exchange interaction dealing with the real spins of cobalt(II) ions, spin-orbit coupling, and a low-symmetry crystal field acting within the (4)T(1g) ground manifold of…

Nanowires of platinum and gold with high aspect ratios are synthesized in one-dimensional channels of ordered mesoporous organosilica HMM. Water-saturated hydrogen reduction (wet H 2 -reduction) is significantly effective for large-scale synthesis of long nanowires, while dry H 2 -reduction gives monodispersed metal n…

Resonant Raman scattering (RRS) spectra of individual carbon nanotubes on a SiO2 substrate have been investigated first in the temperature range of 100-600 K (Phys. Rev. B 2002, 66, 115411). It was revealed by the intensity abnormality of the radial breathing mode (RBM) that the carbon nanotubes have a temperature-dep…

Calcination at 900-1000 degrees C for 8-12 h of an Fe/MgO catalyst prepared by impregnation was found to result in a uniform MgFe2O4/MgO solid solution that showed a successful settling of well-dispersed iron species into the MgO lattice. During methane reduction, many iron-containing particles with a diameter of abou…

We present a detailed study on the integration of individual single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) within a lyotropic hexagonal liquid crystal (LC) for the first time. Two systems are studied in this work; in the first, the same surfactant is used for both the dispersion of the SWNTs and the formation of the LC. In t…

Azobenzene was additionally introduced into side chain of T7 promoter for the photocontrol of transcription reaction by T7 RNA polymerase (T7 RNAP). When a single azobenzene molecule was introduced into the T7 promoter either at the loop-binding region of the RNAP (-7 to -11 position) or at the unwinding region (-1 to…

We discuss the difference between cohesive and non-cohesive granular media in the context of a recent report of "dry quicksand." Weak low density states with properties like dry quicksand are readily formed in common household powders. In contrast, such states cannot be formed in cohesionless granular media such as or…
