Impedance Behavior of Some Reactive Systems in Aprotic Solvents

Solution structures of ferrihaem in some dipolar aprotic solvents and their binary aqueous mixtures.

1. Conductivity and u.v. and visible spectroscopic techniques were used to investigate the solution structure of the prosthetic group of the ferric haemoproteins (ferrihaem) in dimethyl sulphoxide, NN-dimethylacetamide, NN-dimethylformamide and sulpholane, and certain of their aqueous mixtures. 2. In neutral or acid dimethyl sulphoxide, chlorohaemin is monomeric and completely dissociated into ...

Dispersions of Goethite Nanorods in Aprotic Polar Solvents

Colloidal suspensions of anisotropic nanoparticles can spontaneously self-organize in liquid-crystalline phases beyond some concentration threshold. These phases often respond to electric and magnetic fields. At lower concentrations, usual isotropic liquids are observed but they can display very strong Kerr and Cotton-Mouton effects (i.e., field-induced particle orientation). For many examples ...

Desiccant efficiency in solvent drying. 3. Dipolar aprotic solvents.

Ionic Equilibria in Protic and in Dipolar Aprotic Solvents

Chemical interactions' as well as 'physical interactions' play an important part in solvation. Some equilibria are reversed on transfer froni protic to dipolar aprotic solvents and this behaviour can be interpreted and predicted through the solvent activity coefficients of the appropriate solutes. Some extrathermodynamic assumptions for the evaluation of single ion solvent activity coefficients...

A Carbohydrate–Anion Recognition System in Aprotic Solvents

A carbohydrate-anion recognition system in nonpolar solvents is reported, in which complexes form at the B-faces of β-D-pyranosides with H1-, H3-, and H5-cis patterns similar to carbohydrate-π interactions. The complexation effect was evaluated for a range of carbohydrate structures; it resulted in either 1:1 carbohydrate-anion complexes, or 1:2 complex formation depending on the protection pat...
