the coupling of tetrazotised 1,8-diaminonaphthalene with 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds [acetylacetone,methylacetoacetate and acetoacetanilide] yielded a new series of tetradentate ligand systems. analytical, ir,1h nmr and mass spectral data indicate that the compounds exist in the intramolecularly hydrogen bondeddihydrazone form. dibasic tetradentate n2o2 coordination of these compounds in their [ml...

the purpose of the present study was to explore the effectiveness of raising iranian learners’ pragmatic awareness of intercultural rhetoric in enhancing their l2 writing ability, as well as their written complexity and accuracy. to this end, two 25-member groups of efl learners who were taking basic writing course at islamic azad university, roudehen branch, were selected based on their perfor...

this research is aimed to undertake a comparative study on stability and thermal degradation kinetics of un-irradiated and high energy protons irradiated polyvinyl butyral (pvb) based on weight loss analysis and non-isothermal approaches. the weight loss by the un-irradiated pvb upon heating was found to be in two stages but due to high energy protons accelerated exposure following by chemical ...

background: n-acyl homoserine lactone (ahl) is found to be the main component of quorum sensing (qs) in gram-negative bacteria and plays an important role in biofilm formation. little information is available regarding the role of ahl in biofilm formation in escherichia coli (e. coli). the purpose of this investigation was to biochemically detect and characterize ahl activity in biofilm-forming...
