Upon heating Zr(NMe(2))(4), 1,3-bis(N-butyl-imidazolium)benzene diiodide and toluene analytically pure Zr pincer complex was obtained, which was found to be an intramolecular hydroamination catalyst.

Retraction of 'Atomic-scale simulation to study the dynamical properties and local structure of Cu-Zr and Ni-Zr metallic glass-forming alloys' by M. H. Yang et al., Phys. Chem. Chem. Phys., 2016, 18, 7169-7183.

The internal oxidation o f dilute Pd alloys has been studied by XAS. Pt, Au, Pb and Bi in Pd form no impurity-oxygen complexes. Y, Nb, Gd, Yb, Lu, H f , Th, Zr and Mo precipitate at 1050°C as oxides. In a recent paper /1/ it was shown how X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) can be used to investigate the internal oxidation of impurities in dilute alloys. It was demonstrated in the case of a @Zr...

Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is a transmembrane tyrosine kinase receptor, which is overexpressed in many types of cancer. The use of EGFR-targeting monoclonal antibodies and tyrosine-kinase inhibitors improves significantly survival of patients with colorectal, non-small cell lung cancer and head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. Detection of EGFR overexpression provides important pr...

Bag1 proteins bind heat shock protein M(r) 70,000 (Hsp 70) family molecular chaperones and regulate diverse pathways involved in cell proliferation, apoptosis, and stress responses. Four isoforms of Bag1 can be produced from a single gene in humans, including a nuclear-targeted long version (Bag1L)and a shorter cytosolic isoform (Bag1). Because overexpression of Bag1and Bag1L has been reported ...

Single-layered zirconium oxynitride (ZrNxOy) thin films have been deposited on steel substrates, at a constant temperature of 300 8C, by radiofrequency (rf) reactive magnetron sputtering of a pure Zr target in an argon–oxygen–nitrogen atmosphere. The variation of the flow rate of the reactive gases enabled changes in the composition and structure of the films. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and glanci...

In the title compound, [Zr(C(6)H(4)NO(2))(4)]·2H(2)O, the Zr(IV) atom is located on a crystallographic fourfold rotoinversion axis ([Formula: see text]) and is coordinated by four picolinate anions with Zr-O and Zr-N distances of 2.120 (2) and 2.393 (2) Å, respectively. An approximate square-anti-prismatic coordination polyhedron of the N,O-coordination ligand atoms is formed, with a distortion...

Evidence of both solute drag as well as differences in migration mechanisms of certain boundary types has been found for an Al-Zr alloy. In-situ Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) annealing experiments coupled with Scanning Transmission Electron Microscopy (STEM) showed a stark contrast between Zr segregation at small and large scales. Specifically, Zr was found to segregate to, as well as ...

The structural behavior of rapidly quenched Cu-Zr amorphous alloys was analyzed. High energy X-ray diffraction patterns and atomic pair correlation functions exhibit monotonic changes with composition. The experimental results can be well described by a solid solution-like replacement of Cu and Zr atoms in the whole composition range. No indications are observed that would support the existence...

We have presented a method to prepare a uniform anodic nanoporous oxide film on the surface of a cylindrical zircaloy (Zr) tube. The distribution of the electric field around the Zr tube determines the distribution of the thickness of the anodic nanoporous oxide film. The electric field generated when a cylindrical Zr tube is electrochemically anodized was simulated by using commercial code COM...
