Two new nano-sized lead(II) and mercury(II) coordination polymers, [Pb(2-bpdh)(NO3)2(H2O)]n(1); (2-bpdh = 2,5-bis(2-pyridyl)-3,4-diaza- 2,4-hexadiene)} and [Hg(4-bpdb)(SCN)2]n (2); (4-bpdb= 1,4-bis(4- pyridyl)-3,4-diaza-1,3-butadiene) were synthesized by a sonochemical method. The structure of 1 may be considered coordination polymer of lead(II) and Single crystal X–ray analysis of compound ...

In this paper, we report on the synthesis of Cu nanoparticles through a single-precursor route by controlling the growth temperature. Selective adsorption of oleylamine on various crystal planes may play an important role in the growth process. The understanding of this self-assembling process will help us develop reliable and reproducible methods to synthesis other three dimensional nanostruct...

A new tris-chelate Cd(II) complex, [Cd(DADMBTZ)3](ClO3)2 has been successfully synthesized and characterized by IR, 1H, 13C NMR spectroscopy, elemental analysis and single crystal X-ray determination. The thermal behavior, UV-Vis and fluorescence spectra of compound were studied. In reaction with DADMBTZ, Cadmium (II) forms a tris-chelate complex with nearly C3 symmetry for coordination polyhed...

Hydroxyapatite nanorods aligned with ultrahigh crystallinity and high-yield were successfully synthesized through a hydrothermal approach. In this experiment, a new composition of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide ((CH3(CH2)15N+(CH3)3Br-) was designated as CTAP)/Ca(NO3)2/(NH4)2HPO4/NaOH and distilled water under hydrothermal condition, to synthesize single crystalHAp nanorods with diameter of 20 ±...

The nature of the thermoelectric materials Ag(1-x)Pb(m)SbTe(m+2) or LAST-m materials (LAST for Lead Antimony Silver Tellurium) with different m values at the atomic as well as nanoscale was studied with powder/single-crystal X-ray diffraction, electron diffraction, and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy. Powder diffraction patterns of different members (m = 0, 6, 12, 18, infinity)...

We have demonstrated a simple and efficient route for the synthesis of a novel imine based tridentate ligand and its Pd-complex to investigate the C-C cross-coupling reactions, that involve column chromatography purification in only one step. The catalytic activity of the newly synthesized catalyst was studied for the Suzuki, Sonogashira and, Heck cross-coupling reactions under mild conditions....

The characterisation of porous crystalline solids often relies on single crystal X-ray diffraction, which does not give direct information about the surface of the material. Here, crystals of a porous organic cage, CC3-R, are investigated by atomic force microscopy and shown to possess two distinct gas-solid interfaces, proving that the bulk crystal structure is preserved at the porous crystal ...
