the dependence on ionic strength of protonation of glycine and its complexation with dioxouranium (vi) is reported in sodium perchlorate and sodium chloride solutions as background salts. the measurements have been performed at 25±0.1°c and various ionic strengths in the range 0.1 to 1.0 mol , using a combination of potentiometric and spectrophotometric techniques. the overall analysis  of the ...

Iron species have essential influence on the environmental/geochemical behaviors of arsenic in water and soil. Colloidal ferric hydroxide (CFH) induces photooxidation arsenite (As(III)) to arsenate (As(V)) at neutral pH through surface complexation ligand-to-metal charge transfer (LMCT). However, effect co-existing natural organic matter (NOM) complexation-photolysis this process has remained u...

In this contribution, we report studies on nonspecific protein-DNA interactions of an enzyme protein bovine pancreatic alpha-chymotrypsin (CHT) with genomic DNA (from salmon testes) using two biologically common fluorescent probes: 1-anilinonaphthalene-8-sulfonate (ANS) and 2,6-p-toluidinonaphthalene sulfonate (TNS). TNS molecules that are nonspecifically bound to positively charged basic resid...

Ab initio MP2(full)/aug-cc-pVTZ calculations have been carried out to investigate the halogen transfer between haloamines and ammonia. The results show that the formation of a halogen bond complex between ammonia and the protonated N-haloamine is a preliminary step in the halogen transfer process. The complexation energies, optimized geometries, topology of electron density and potential energy...

The introduction of the combination of open metal site (OMS) and π-complexation into MOF has led to very high ethylene-ethane adsorption selectivity at 318 K, as illustrated in the context of MIL-101-Cr-SO3Ag. The interactions with ethylene from both OMS and π-complexation in MIL-101-Cr-SO3Ag have been investigated by in situ IR spectroscopic studies and computational calculations, which sugges...

the formation of charge-transfer complexation between dibenzo-15-crown-5 (db15c5) and benzo-12-crown-4 (b12c4) (donor) and iodine is investigated spectrophotometrically in three chlorinated solvents,chloroform, dichloromethane (dcm) and 1,2-dichloroethane (dce) solution at 25°c. the change in polarityof the solvent also doesn’t affect the stoichiometry of the complexes. values of formation cons...

the complexation reaction between 1,13-bis(8-quinolyl)-1,4,7,10,13-pentaoxatridecane (kryptofix5) ligand with zn2+, ni2+, co2+, pb2+, mn2+ and cu2+ ions were studied conductometrically in different acetonitrile-nitromethane (an-nm) and acetonitrile-methanol (an-meoh) mixtures. the formation constants of the resulting 1:1 complexes were calculated from the computer fitting of the molar conductan...

In ion sensing applications, selective ion-receptor complexation is the molecular basis for endowing material with selectivity. this work, thin polymeric membrane-based transfer voltammetry used to investigate complexation, using a range of electrically neutral ionophores and surfactants as examples. Previous studies lacked convincing approach eliminate influence from transducing layer, resulti...

Available surface complexation models for birnessite required the inclusion of bidentate bonds or the adsorption of cation-hydroxy complexes to account for experimentally observed H/M exchange. These models contain inconsistencies and therefore the surface complexation on birnessite was re-examined. Structural data on birnessite indicate that sorption sites are located on three oxygens around a...
