the complexation reactions between tl+ and pb2+ ions and crown ethers 12-crown-4(12c4), 15-crown-5 (15c5), benzo-15-crown-5 (b15c5), 18-crown-6 (18c6), dicyclohexyl-18-crown-6 (dc18c6) and aza-18-crown-6 (a18c6) were studied in 90% acetonitrile and 90% ethanol solutions at 25 °c, using an a.c. polarographic technique. the stoichiometry and stability of the complexes were determined by monitorin...

The present study synthesizes a novel adsorbent by coating Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles with amino functionalized mesoporous silica. The FTIR spectrums indicate that silica has been successfully coated on the surface of Fe3O4 and 3-aminopropyl tri methoxysilane compound have been grafted to the surface of silica-coated Fe3O4. The XRD analysis shows the presence of magnetite phase with cubic spi...

The local structure of trace amounts of lead in an adsorbent matrix that contains a high concentration of iron and magnesium (Mg6Fe2(OH)16(CO3) x 3H2O) was successfully monitored by means of X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy combined with fluorescence spectrometry. A eutectic mixture of PbCO3 and Pb(OH)2 coagulated when Pb2+ was adsorbed from a 1.0 ppm aqueous solution, and in contra...

The Pb(II) atom in the title compound, [Pb(C(10)H(6)NO(2))(2)], is N,O-chelated by two quinoline-2-carboxyl-ate anions in a distorted Ψ-trigonal-bipyramidal environment; four atoms are connected to the Pb(II) atom by regular coordination bonds. The structure also features two somewhat long Pb⋯O inter-actions [2.952 (3) and 3.014 (3) Å]. These long inter-actions give rise to a layer coordination...

The polymerase (PB2) and nucleocapsid (NP) genes encoded by the genome of influenza virus are essential for replication of the virus. When synthetic genes that express RNAs for external guide sequences targeted to the mRNAs of the PB2 and NP genes are stably incorporated into mouse cells in tissue culture, infection of these cells with influenza virus is nonproductive. Endogenous RNase P cleave...

The influenza A virus genome consists of eight RNA segments that associate with the viral polymerase proteins (PB1, PB2, and PA) and nucleoprotein (NP) to form ribonucleoprotein complexes (RNPs). The viral NS1 protein was previously shown to associate with these complexes, although it was not clear which RNP component mediated the interaction. Using individual TAP (tandem affinity purification)...

The dinuclear title compound, [Pb(2)(C(10)H(6)NO(2))(2)(CH(3)COO)(2)(CH(3)OH)(2)], lies across an inversion center. The methanol-coordinated Pb(II) atom is chelated by the acetate anion as well as by the quinoline-2-carboxyl-ate anion. One O atom of the quinoline-2-carboxyl-ate anion bridges two symmetry-related Pb(II) atoms, forming the dinuclear compound. Aside from the six atoms connected to...
