Four heteroleptic complexes of nickel(ii), cobalt(ii) and zinc(ii), containing a monodentate silanethiolate ligand derived from tris(2,6-diisopropylphenoxy)silanethiol (TDST), were prepared and characterized. Nickel(ii) and cobalt(ii) complexes of the formula M(NH3)2(TDST)2 (M = Ni(ii) complex , M = Co(ii) complex ) were obtained from the respective chlorides. Zinc complexes of the general form...

Nickel compounds influence carcinogenesis by interfering with a variety of cellular targets. It has been found that nickel is a potent inhibitor in vivo of histone H4 acetylation, in both yeast and mammalian cells. It has preference to specific lysine residues in the H4 N-terminal -S(1)GRGK(5)GGK(8)GLGK(12)GGAK(16)RH(18)RKVL(22) tail, in which the sites of acetylation are clustered. About the n...

heteropoly acid promoted nanoparticle of nickel oxide samples were prepared by sol-gel method using heteropoly acids. prepared composite was characterized by xrd, ft-ir and icp technique. in this work, we have reported bromination of phenol, its derivatives and some aromatic compounds. the liquid phase bromination of phenol was performed using heteropoly acids immobilized nanoparticle of nickel...

welders exposure to nickel and hexavalent chromium in welding fumes is associated with increase of cancer risk in welders. in this study we calculated cancer risk due to exposure to these compounds in welders.the role of exposure parameters in welders on derived incremental lifetime cancer risk were determined by stochastic modeling of cancer risk. input parameters were determined by field inve...

Nickel compounds are carcinogenic to humans and experimental animals. However, the mechanisms leading to tumor formation are still not understood since the mutagenic potential is rather weak. In contrast, nickel(II) enhances the cytotoxicity and genotoxicity in combination with several other DNA-damaging agents. To elucidate possible interactions with DNA repair processes, the effect of nickel(...

Nickel compounds are known to cause respiratory cancer in humans and induce tumors in experimental animals. The underlying molecular mechanisms may involve genotoxic effects; however, the data from different research groups are not easy to reconcile. Here, we challenge the common premise that direct genotoxic effects are central to nickel carcinogenesis and probably to that of other metals. Ins...

Raney nickel catalyst alone removes sulfur in reasonable yield from organic sulfur compounds, such as thiols, thioethers, disulfides, hemithioacetals, hemithioketals, diketals, thioamides, thiolesters, thiophenes, thioazoles, sulfoxides, sulfones, isothiocyanates, thioureas, and also organoselenium and tellurium compounds. This desulfurization reaction, therefore, has been used for the solution...
