a solid chelating material, 1-(2-pyridy1azo)-2-naphthol (pan) supported on naphthalene provides a rapid and highly selective means of preconcentration of uranium from aqueous solution. uranium is quantitatively retained on this adsorbent in the ph range 9.8-10.7 with a flow rate of 1 ml min . the metal complex was desorbed with 10 ml of 2 m hydrochloric acid and uranium is determined by differe...

Ruthenium nanoparticle tris(2,2'-bipyridyl)ruthenium(II) bis(hexafluorophosphate) (Ru(bpy)3(PF6)2, RuNP) was self-assembled on polystyrene (PS) electrospun microfibers. The formation of RuNP is attributed to the sulfonated PS (SPS) microfibers' high adsorptive capability of 94% for Ru(bpy)3(2+), as well as the strong interaction between the Ru(bpy)3(2+) and ionic liquid (1-butyl-3-methylimidazo...

A new kinetic spectrophotometic method for the determination of trace amount Chromium (III) in Teareal samples has been described based on it s the catalytic effect on the oxidations of 1 - ( 2 –PyridylAzo ) - 2 - Naphthol, (PAN), by potassium bromated in sulfuric acid. The reaction is followedspec- trophotometrically by measuring the decrease in the absorbance at 469 nm. Under the optimumcondi...

We demonstrate the photocatalytic protonation of a silylenol ether using 7-bromo-2-naphthol as an ESPT catalyst with phenol as the sacrificial proton source. Greater than 95% conversion is achieved with 1 mol% catalyst. The reaction cycle is dependent on the significantly increased acidity of the catalyst in the excited state as well as the long lifetime for the triplet excited state of 7-bromo...

A new kinetic spectrophotometic method for the determination of trace amount manganese(II) in Tea real samples has been described based on it s the catalytic effect on the oxidations of 1 - (2 – Pyridyl Azo) - 2 - Naphthol, (PAN), by potassium bromated in sulfuric acid. The reaction is followed spectrophotometrically by measuring the decrease in the absorbance at 547.5 nm. Under the optimum con...

We present semiempirical AM1 calculations for the ground and excited state of 2-naphthol and some of its cyano derivatives in the gas phase. Following photoexcitation, the Mulliken electron density on the oxygen diminishes slightly for the acid and more conspicuously for the anionic conjugated base. This agrees with the measured solvatochromic parameters for 2-naphthol. In both electronic state...

The title compound, C(25)H(21)ClO(2), was synthesized via the three-component coupling of 4-chloro-benzaldehyde, 2-naphthol and 5,5-dimethyl-cyclo-hexane-1,3-dione. The pyran ring adopts a boat conformation, while the cyclo-hexenone ring is in an envelope conformation. The 4-chloro-phenyl ring is almost perpendicular to the pyran ring [dihedral angle = 87.39 (1)°]. In the crystal, mol-ecules ar...

We investigate the OH stretch vibrational frequency shifts of a prototype photoacid, 2-naphthol (2N), when dissolved in solvents of low polarity. We combine femtosecond mid-infrared spectroscopy and a theoretical model based on the Pullin-van der Zwan-Hynes perturbative approach to explore vibrational solvatochromic effects in the ground S(0) and the first electronically excited (1)L(b) states....

The development of a Ni(II) (S)-Tol-BINAP-catalyzed enantioselective alkylation of N-acylthiazolidinethiones with trimethyl orthoformate is described. The reaction is general with respect to the thiazolidinethione, providing the desired adducts in good to excellent yield and with high levels of enantioselectivity (11 examples, 51-92% yield, 90-99% ee). The products are readily converted into a ...
