A solvent-extraction system comprising toluene/ter-butanol (ter-BuOH) mixed solvent as the organic phase was developed to selectively extract Cr(VI) from acidic chloride media in the presence of divalent metals, namely Cd(II), Co(II), Cu(II), Ni(II) and Zn(II) under 5 M CaCl2 salting-out conditions. Chromium(VI) was selectively extracted as a solvated ion-pair of [ter-BuOH2+ x CrO3Cl-] at ter-B...

A comprehensive model has been developed for calculating electrical conductivities of aqueous or mixed-solvent electrolyte systems ranging from dilute solutions to fused salts. The model consists of a correlation for calculating ionic conductivities at infinite dilution as a function of solvent composition and a method for predicting the effect of finite electrolyte concentration. The effect of...

this work described a simple and efficient synthesis of dialkyl 3-(alkylamino)-1-aryl-1h-pyrazole-4,5-dicarboxylates via a three component reaction between arylhydrazine, alkylisocyanid and dialkylacetylenedicarboxylates in the presence of phenylisocyanate and α-fe2o3 nanoparticles. eco friendly, solvent-free conditions, excellent yields, and short reaction times, inexpensive and readily availa...

the complexation reaction between hydroxyl ammonium (honh3+ ) cation with 18-crown-6 (18c6) ligand was studied in dimethylsulfoxide – water (dmso-h2o), methanol – water (meoh-h2o) and dimethylformamid – methanol (dmf-meoh), binary solutions at different temperatures using conductometric method. the obtained results show that the stoichiometry of the complex formed between honh3+ cation with (18...

A general model has been developed for calculating the static dielectric constant of mixed-solvent electrolyte solutions. For mixtures of solvents without electrolyte components, the model is based on an empirical modification of the Kirkwood theory for multicomponent systems. For systems containing electrolytes, the model takes into account the effects of ions and ion pairs and, therefore, it ...

Molecularly-mixed composite membranes (MMCMs) incorporating amorphous scrambled porous organic cages (ASPOCs) are a rapidly emerging membrane class that characterized by the formation of solid solution due to high degree homogeneity is not observed in other classes polymer-particle composites. Molecular-level mixing overcomes many performance/processing issues typically encountered with two pha...
