A Sc NHC complex readily activates three equivalents of CO2 showing 'Frustrated Lewis Pair' type reactivity with each metal-carbene bond, but whilst CS2 is also activated by the labile carbenes, no metal involvement is observed.

Certain functions of the peripheral and autonomic nervous systems, and colour discrimination were examined in 45 workers (mean age 49; mean exposure to carbon disulphide (CS2) 20 years) and 37 controls (mean age 48). Conduction velocity and refractory period of the peroneal and sural nerves were determined. The conduction velocity of the slower fibres of the peroneal nerve was measured by means...

Monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) against the different coli surface antigens CS1, CS2, and CS3 of colonization factor antigen II (CFA/II) of enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) were generated by fusing F/O myeloma cells with spleen cells from BALB/c mice immunized with different preparations of purified CFA/II. Five hybrids that produced antibodies specific for CS1, CS2, or CS3 in high titer we...

Abstract. Tidal salt marsh soils can be a dynamic source of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), and nitrous oxide (N2O), well sulfur-based trace disulfide (CS2) dimethylsulfide (DMS) which play roles in global climate carbon–sulfur biogeochemistry. Due to the difficulty measuring coastal ecosystems (e.g., flooding, salinity), our current understanding is based on snaps...

We report the experimental observation of the elliptically polarized fundamental vector soliton of isotropic Kerr media and its unique polarization evolution. This was achieved in the spatial domain in a nonbirefringent CS2 planar waveguide.

On 1 June 2021, a heavy rainstorm hit the coast of South China (148.6 mm in h, 361 over 12 h). The storm process was successively affected by two convective systems (CSs). initial convection CSs occurred at similar location; however, they subsequently showed different evolution characteristics. Based on multi-source data, including dual-polarimetric radars, wind profiling sounding, and automati...

The kinetics of the O + HCNO reaction were investigated by a relative rate technique using infrared diode laser absorption spectroscopy. Laser photolysis (355 nm) of NO2 was used to produce O atoms, followed by O atom reactions with CS2, NO2, and HCNO, and infrared detection of OCS product from the O + CS2 reaction. Analysis of the experiment data yields a rate constant of k1= (9.84 +/- 3.52) x...
