A quantum chemical study of the efficiency of some o-, m-, and p-substituted benzohydrazides, cinnamohydrazide, and Schiff bases derived from salcylaldehyde with o-substituted anilines, psubstituted benzaldehydes with 2-aminopyridine and 2-aminopyrimidine, benzaldehyde and cinnamaldehyde with p-phenylenediamine as cor…
Various preparations of the neutral radical [CpNi(dddt)] complex (dddt = 5,6-dihydro-1,4-dithiin-2,3-dithiolate) were investigated with CpNi sources, [Cp2Ni], [Cp2Ni](BF4), [CpNi(CO)]2, and [CpNi(cod)](BF4), and dithiolene transfer sources, O=C(dddt), the naked dithiolate (dddt(2-)), the monoanion of square-planar Ni…
The phosphonomethylhydrazide 2a reacts with N-acylated imidates 3a–d to give the corresponding 5-aryl (or 5-benzyl)-2-[(1-diethoxyphosphonyl)methyl]-1,3,4-oxadiazoles 4a–d after the elimination of ethanamide 5. Compounds 2a–e are prepared by the action of triethyl phosphonoacetate 1 with hydrazine and its derivatives.…
Natural rubber becomes crystalline when stretched or when cooled, yet the structure of this ordered form has never been satisfactorily determined. We have used film-recorded fiber X-ray diffraction data from oriented unvulcanized natural rubber, combined with linked-atom-least-squares molecular modeling and refinement…
Hydrogels containing 2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine (MPC) moieties were formed from aqueous solutions with water-soluble MPC polymers with carboxylic acid and alkyl groups because of hydrogen bonding formation. To investigate the biocompatibility and drug release behavior of the hydrogels, we used random- an…
Controlled release: Lipid tubes (composed of hydroxy fatty acids) exhibit a change in their diameter upon increasing temperature (see figure). The temperature at which this change occurs is tuned by modulating the lipid composition. These findings show that hydroxy fatty acids have fascinating self-assembly properties…
Poly(hexyl-substituted lactides) (PHLA) as new hydrophobic polyesters with controlled molecular weights and narrow distributions were synthesized by ring-opening polymerization (ROP) using tin(II) 2-ethylhexanoate (Sn(Oct)(2)) and benzyl alcohol as catalyst and initiator. Glass transition temperatures (T(g)) and zero…
Controlling the level of dispersion of silicate layers in polymer matrices through intermolecular interactions and exploiting these interactions to enhance thermomechanical behavior are key challenges in the field of polymer nanocomposites. In this investigation, unmodified Laponite platelets are dispersed in a segmen…
Platinum nanoparticles were synthesized via polyol reduction and then assembled into colloidal spheres under the direction of an organic surfactant such as sodium dodecyl sulfate. These spheres serve as substrates to form Pt nanorods and nanowires with controllable lengths, depending on the amount of Pt precursor adde…
The reaction of Ln(NO3)3.aq with K3[Cr(CN)6] and 2,2'-bipyridine (bpy) in a water/ethanol solution led to two families of complexes: 4 one-dimensional (1D) complexes of the formula trans-[Cr(CN)4(mu-CN)2Ln(H2O)3(bpy)2]n.4nH2O.3.5nbpy (Ln3+ = La, Ce, Pr, and Nd) and 10 1D complexes of the formula trans-[Cr(CN)4(mu-CN)2…
Signatures of short range anisotropic ferromagnetic correlations and ferromagnetic clustering, manifested as unusually large hysteresis and other anomalies of the low magnetic field dc magnetization and ac magnetic susceptibility, have been observed in both the antiferromagnetic and paramagnetic states of single cryst…
Hydrous stannic oxide (HSO) was synthesized in the laboratory and its systematic Cr (VI) adsorption behaviour was studied by means of batch experiments. The particle size of HSO used was in the range of 140 to 290µm. The variable parameters viz. the effects of pH, concentration of Cr (VI) and time of contact etc. are…
We report on the magneto-optical spectroscopy and cathodoluminescence of a set of wurtzite $(\mathrm{Ga},\mathrm{Mn})\mathrm{N}$ epilayers with a low Mn content, grown by molecular-beam epitaxy. The sharpness of the absorption lines associated with the ${\mathrm{Mn}}^{3+}$ internal transitions allows a precise study o…
Mo-doped VO(2) nanowire array film with good thermochromic properties was prepared by melting-quenching followed by heat treatment in a vacuum. The formation of the new microstructure is related to the cleavage of the oxide lamella along (001) and (100) plane with large interplanar spacing. Mo doping results in the lo…
This work reports about bulk-sensitive, high energy photoelectron spectroscopy from the valence band of CoTiSb excited by photons from 1.2 to 5 keV energy. The high energy photoelectron spectra were taken at the KMC-1 high energy beamline of BESSY II employing the recently developed Phoibos 225 HV analyser. The measur…
We report a surprising hysteretic behavior in the dynamics of a simple one-dimensional nonlinear model inspired by the tribological problem of two sliding surfaces with a thin solid lubricant layer in between. In particular, we consider the frictional dynamics of a harmonic chain confined between two rigid incommensur…
We extend the study of velocity quantization phenomena recently found in the classical motion of an idealized 1D model solid lubricant -- consisting of a harmonic chain interposed between two periodic sliding potentials [Phys. Rev. Lett. 97, 056101 (2006)]. This quantization is due to one slider rigidly dragging the c…
The lattice specific heat of carbon nanotubes is evaluated within the microscopic model proposed by Mahan and Jeon, published in the Physical Review B, in 2004. Phonons are considered for a single wall carbon nanotube in the armchair configuration. As expected, low temperature and high temperature regions show differe…
Using a first principles approach, we study the electron transport properties of two molecules of length 2.5nm which are the building blocks for a new class of molecular wires containing fluorenone units. We show that the presence of side groups attached to these units leads to Fano resonances close to the Fermi energ…
The near-infrared photoluminescence of monolayer-protected Au38 and Au140 clusters (MPCs) is intensified with exchange of nonpolar ligands by more polar thiolate ligands. The effect is general and includes as more polar in-coming ligands: thiophenolates with a variety of p-substituents; alkanethiolates omega-terminate…
