The present study was carried out by focusing on the interaction between molecular complexes crown and thiacrown ethers such as 15-crown-5 (15C5), thia-15-crown-5 (T15C5), dithia-15-crown-5 (DT15C5) with homogeneous and heterogeneous dihalogens (XY) such as I2, IBr, ICl, Br2, Cl2 in the gas phase and in dichloromethane solvent through applying density function theory (DFT) as well as Gaussian 9...

the preparation of polymer membrane selective to iron(ii) ion and its application to ion-selectiveelectrode is reported here. pvc membrane contains iron–selective n-phenylaza-15-crown-5 asionophore. the membrane electrode is highly selective to iron(ii) ion and exhibit good linearresponse over a wide concentration range of 1.0 × 10-2 to 1.0 × 10-6 m with nernstian slope of29.2 ± 0.6 mv per deca...

complexes of benzo-15-crown-5 macrocycle with li+ and cs+ ions were investigated by 7li and 133cs nmr in a number of nonoqueous solutions. the resulting 1:1 complex with li+ ion was found to be much more stable than that with cs+ ion. with the exception of pyridine solutions the stabilities of the complexes varied inversely with the gutmann donor number of the solvents. some indirect evidence f...

[reaction: see text] A template containing two secondary dialkylammonium ion recognition sites for encirclement by olefin-bearing dibenzo[24]crown-8 derivatives has been used to promote olefin cross metatheses with ruthenium-alkylidene catalysts. For monoolefin monomers, the rates of metatheses and yields of the dimers are both amplified in the presence of the template. Likewise, for a diolefin...

Automatic repair: a polymer with pendent dibenzo[24]crown-8 units (purple in picture) was cross-linked by two bisammonium salts (green) to form two supramolecular gels based on host-guest interactions. These two gels are stimuli-responsive materials that respond to changes of the pH value and are also self-healing materials, as can be seen by eye and as evidenced by rheological data.

K 2 Se5 has been prepared by crystallization from a potassium polyselenide solution in DM F. In a similar way [Na(15-crown-5)]2Se5 can be prepared by crystallization from a sodium poly­ selenide solution in D M F in the presence o f 15-crown-5. Both compounds were characterized by FIR spectroscopy as well as by X-ray structure determinations. K 2 Se5: Space group P 2,2,2,, Z 4, 1659 observed in...
