O 2 , hypersalinity, and Cu 2+ potentiate the toxicity of H 2 S in erythrocytes of a marine invertebrate

Femtosecond dynamics of Cu(H(2)O)(2).

The ultrafast relaxation dynamics of Cu(H(2)O)(2) is investigated using femtosecond photodetachment-photoionization spectroscopy. In addition, stationary points on the Cu(H(2)O)(2) anion, neutral, and cation potential energy surfaces are characterized by ab initio electronic structure calculations. Electron photodetachment from Cu(-)(H(2)O)(2) initiates the dynamics on the ground-state potentia...

Kinetics of HO 2 + HO 2 ! H 2 O 2 + O 2 : Implications for Stratospheric H

[1] The reaction HO2 + HO2 ! H2O2 + O2 (1) has been studied at 100 Torr and 222 K to 295 K. Experiments employing photolysis of Cl2/CH3OH/O2/N2 and F2/H2/O2/N2 gas mixtures to produce HO2 confirmed that methanol enhanced the observed reaction rate. At 100 Torr, zero methanol, k1 = (8.8 ± 0.9) 10 13 exp[(210 ± 26)/T] cm molecule 1 s 1 (2s uncertainties), which agrees with current recommendations...

Cu(2)[o-Br-C(6)H(3)(CO(2))(2)](2)(H(2)O)(2).(DMF)(8)(H(2)O)(2): a framework deliberately designed to have the NbO structure type.

The synthesis of an NbO-type metal-organic framework was achieved by design: o-Br-BDC (BDC = benzenedicarboxylate) was used to direct the formation of Cu2(CO2)4 paddle wheel units at 90 degrees to each other and thus yield the target network. The compound was formulated as Cu2[o-Br-BDC]2(H2O)2.(DMF)8(H2O)2 (MOF-101) and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction [cubic, space group Imm (...

Anion-directed crystallization of coordination polymers: syntheses and characterization of Cu(4)(2-pzc)(4)(H(2)O)(8)(Mo(8)O(26)).2H(2)O and Cu(3)(2-pzc)(4)(H(2)O)(2)(V(10)O(28)H(4)).6.5H(2)O (2-pzc = 2-pyrazinecarboxylate).

Two new copper 2-pyrazinecarboxylate (2-pzc) coordination polymers incorporating [Mo(8)O(26)](4-) and [V(10)O(28)H(4)](2-) anions were synthesized and structurally characterized: Cu(4)(2-pzc)(4))(H(2)O)(8)(Mo(8)O(26)).2H(2)O (1) and Cu(3)(2-pzc)(4)(H(2)O)(2)(V(10)O(28)H(4)).6.5H(2)O (2). Crystal data: 1, monoclinic, space group P2(1)/n, a = 11.1547(5) A, b = 13.4149(6) A, c = 15.9633(7) A, beta...
