Determination of rhenium in rhenium-tungsten alloy

Spectroscopic determination of phonon lifetimes in rhenium-doped MoS2 nanoparticles.

We investigated the infrared vibrational properties of pristine and Re-substituted MoS2 nanoparticles and analyzed the extracted phonon lifetimes in terms of multiple scattering events. Our measurements reveal both size- and doping-dependent changes that we attribute to grain boundary scattering and charge and mass effects, respectively. By contrast, Born charge is affected only by size. These ...

Uptake and efflux of rhenium in cells exposed to rhenium diseleno-ether and tissue distribution of rhenium and selenium after rhenium diseleno-ether treatment in mice.

UNLABELLED We proposed a new water-soluble rhenium diseleno-ether compound (with one atom of Re and two atoms of Se) and investigated the uptake of Re into the nucleus of malignant cells in culture exposed to the compound for 48 h and its efflux from the nucleus after a post-exposure period of 48 h, as DNA is the main target of Re. We also studied the distribution of both Re and Se in the main ...

Rhenium-doped MoS2 films

Rhenium-catalyzed aromatic propargylation.

A mild aromatic propargylation reaction, employing an air- and moisture-tolerant rhenium-oxo complex ((dppm)ReOCl(3)) as a catalyst and a propargyl alcohol as the electrophile, is described. The reaction tolerates a broad range of functional groups and regioselectively affords propargylic arenas without formation of the isomeric allenyl adducts. The potential of this rhenium(V)-catalyzed reacti...

Suppression of radiation-induced point defects by rhenium and osmium interstitials in tungsten

Modeling the evolution of radiation-induced defects is important for finding radiation-resistant materials, which would be greatly appreciated in nuclear applications. We apply the density functional theory combined with comprehensive analyses of massive experimental database to indicate a mechanism to mitigate the effect of radiation on W crystals by adding particular solute elements that chan...
