The molecular and crystal structures of the title complex, [Ru(C 10 H 8 N 2 )(C 12 9 NO)(C 6 OS) ](CF 3 O S) or cis (S) ,trans (O, bpy )-[Ru(bpy)(ppk)(dmso- S ) ](OTf) {bpy = 2,2′-bipyridine, ppk phenyl-2-pyridyl ketone [IUPAC nomenclature: phenyl(pyridine-2-yl)methanone], dmso dimethyl sulfoxide, OTf − trifluoromethanesulfonate}, are reported. Ru 2+ ion has a distorted octahedral geometry with...

relatively new embolic material consisting of ethylene vinyl alcohol polymer dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) that is mainly used for embolization of a brain arteriovenous malformations (AVM) (1-4). The solidification of Onyx occurs in an ‘outside-in’ precipitation process which often allows better forward penetration than n-butyl cyanoacrylate (NBCA) (2). However, experiences of using On...

Abstract As low‐molecular‐weight hydrogelators, dipeptide hydrogel materials are suited for embedding multiple organic molecules and inorganic nanoparticles. Herein, a simple but precisely controllable method is presented that enables the fabrication of dipeptide‐based hydrogels by supramolecular assembly inside microfluidic channels. Water‐soluble quantum dots (QDs) as well premixed porphyrins...

Xylan can be extracted from biomass using either alkali (KOH or NaOH) or dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO); however, DMSO extraction is the only method that produces a water-soluble xylan. In this study, DMSO extraction of corn stover was studied at different temperatures with the objective of finding a faster, more efficient extraction method. The temperature and time of extraction were compared follo...

Effective skin antisepsis is of central importance in the prevention of wound infections, colonization of medical devices, and nosocomial transmission of microorganisms. Current antiseptics have a suboptimal efficacy resulting in substantial infectious morbidity, mortality, and increased health care costs. Here, we introduce an in vitro method for antiseptic testing and a novel alcohol-based an...

In the title compound, [Ni(C(8)H(7)O(4))(2){(CH(3))(2)SO}(2)], the Ni(II) atom is located on a crystallographic centre of symmetry and has a distorted octa-hedral coordination geometry of type MO(6). The bidentate dehydro-acetic acid (DHA) ligands occupy the equatorial plane of the complex in a trans configuration, and the dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) ligands are weakly coordinated through their O...

The interaction of β- and γ-cyclodextrins (β-CD and γ-CD, respectively) with polyacrylamide modified with pyrenyl (Py) residues (pAAmPy) was investigated in a mixed solvent of water and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) by steady-state fluorescence. In the absence of CD, the fluorescence spectra indicated that the formation of Py dimers became less favorable with increasing volume fraction of DMSO (x(D...

The two Zn(II) atoms in the title compound, [Zn(2)(C(10)H(12)N(3)O(2)S)(2)Cl(2)]·3C(2)H(6)OS, are each N,O,S-chelated by a mono-deprotonated Schiff base ligand. The Zn atoms are bridged through the phenolate O atom, leading to a central Zn(2)O(2) core. Each Zn atom has a Cl atom in the apical position of a distorted square-pyramidal environment. Hydr-oxy-DMSO (DMSO is dimethyl sulfoxide) O-H⋯O ...

In the production of polymeric membranes used in water treatment by non-solvent-induced phase separation (NIPS) method, materials membrane casting solution and interaction these greatly affect properties performance obtained membranes. this study, polyethersulfone (PES) are produced NIPS method using two different solvents, dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP), polyvinylpyrrol...

Cesium alkanoates (chiefly the propionate) have been investigated for their solubility, nucleophilic reactivity, and degree of ion pairing in dimethylformamide (DMF) and, in some cases, dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) solutions. 133Cs NMR has been used to establish the degree of ion pairing. From the data obtained it is concluded that the cesium ion is virtually completely solvated and that the carbo...
