A new cobalt(III) complex salt, [cis-Co(en)2(C8H7O2)2](C8H7O2) Æ 2H2O, has been synthesized and characterized by single crystal Xray structure determination. This is the first example of a cobalt(III) compound of this type with two p-methylbenzoate groups in cisconfiguration. The cations and anions are associated in chains by strong NH . . . O hydrogen bonds. The crystal lattice is stabilized b...

in this work we report synthesis and magnetic characterization of cobalt doped zno nanoparticles (with different percent of doped cobalt oxide). synthesis of the materials was carried out at room temperature by polyacrylamide-gel method, using zink sulfate and cobalt nitrate as source materials, acrylamide as monomer and n,n-methylene bisacrylamide as a lattice reagent. characterization of the ...

Cobalt chromite (CoCr2O4) with normal spinel structure, shows catalytic activity for oxidation of unburned methane in the natural gas vehilcles (NGV). In this study, CoCr2O4 nanoparticles were synthesized through a conventional co-precipitation technique and investigated for the catalytic combustion of methane. Cobalt nitrate hexahydrate,...

in this paper, the mer-co(nh3)3(no2)3 complex was used as a new precursor for synthesizing spinel-type cobalt oxide nanoparticles (co3o4nps).thermal decomposition of the complex at low temperature (175 °c) resulted in the co3o4nps without using expensive and toxic solvents or complicated equipment. xrd, ft-ir, sem, edx, and tem were employed to characterize the product, and its optical and magn...

The preparation, characterization, and immobilization of cobalt (III) salen complex on CoFe2O4@SiO2 nanoparticle (CoFe2O4@SiO2@ Co(III) salen complex) are described. Co(III) salen complex loaded on ferrite cobalt-silica nanoparticle is characterized by TEM, SEM-EDX, VSM and FT-IR analyses. The efficiency of CoFe2O...

The anaerobic biosynthesis of vitamin B12 is slowly being unravelled. Recent work has shown that the first committed step along the anaerobic route involves the sirohydrochlorin (chelation of cobalt into factor II). The following enzyme in the pathway, CbiL, methylates cobalt-factor II to give cobalt-factor III. Recent progress on the molecular characterization of this enzyme has given a greate...
