[1] Abstract: Analysis of crystal size distributions (CSD) of plagioclase in gabbros from the Oman ophiolite indicates that cooling rates in the lower crust beneath a mediumto fast-spreading oceanic ridge did not vary smoothly with depth. Cooling rates in the upper half of the gabbro section were approximately 1.5–2 times faster than in the lower half of the gabbro section during igneous crysta...

Spinels from cumulus and non-cumulus members of the 0thris ophiolite display a considerable variation in composition. Cumulus pierites and gabbros contain either a primary chromite and/or a reaction spinel formed by reaction with co-existing sili?ate,-" (Cr--A1 varia tion) or intercumulus liquid (Cr--Fe variation). Non-cumulus peridotites contain spinels which vary along a Cr--A1 trend. Harzbur...

Cobalt(II)  complexes of isonicotinoyl hydrazones of two series of ligands have been synthesized and characterized on the basis of elemental analyses, molar conductance, magnetic moment, mass, IR, UV spectral data. Electrochemical behavior of ligands and complexes has been investigated by using cyclic voltammetry. Cyclic voltammetric studies reveal that the oxidation/reduct...

In this study, the complexation reaction between Alprazolam (ALP) and metal ions (Zn2+, Ni2+, Cu2+ and Co2+) was investigated by using spectrophotometry in ethanol solvent. The stoichiometry of M+/ALP complexes was calculated by applying the Job, molar ratio and Continuous Changes methods and the relevant diagrams were plotted for each metal ions in each method. The results show that the obtain...

formation of the molecular complexes between meso-tetraphenylporphyrin (tpp) and the p-acceptors 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyanobenzoquinone (ddq) and tetracyanothylene (tcne) in chloroform solution was investigated spectrophotometrically. the formation constants of the resulting 1:1 molecular complexes were determined using the benesi-hildebrand and nash methods. the tpp-ddq proved to be more stable ...

abstractthe ability of hesperidin (hp) to form complexes with five metals; cobalt, nickel, zinc, calcium and magnesium was investigated. the complexation was studied using u.v spectroscopic titration, in methanol as well as aqueous buffer solutions (physiological conditions). potential complexes were studied by ir and nmr spectroscopy, melting point and their solubility were also evaluated. the...

The Solund–Hyllestad–Lavik area affords an excellent opportunity to understand the ultrahigh-pressure Scandian orogeny because it contains a near-complete record of ophiolite emplacement, high-pressure metamorphism and large-scale extension. In this area, the Upper Allochthon was intruded by the c. 434 Ma Sogneskollen granodiorite and thrust eastward over the Middle ⁄ Lower Allochthon, probably...

The ophiolites of Othris, northern Greece, and Troodos, Cyprus, are of mixed lherzolite-harzburgite and harzburgite sub-type respectively. Within both ophiolites an entire spectrum of harzburgite, plagioclase harzburgite, lhcrzolite and plagioclase lherzolite interpreted respectively as residual and highly, moderately and slightly modified upper mantle has been recognised. Plagioclase lherzolit...

We investigated the crystal and structural behavior of several Cr-bearing spinels from the Archean chromitites of Amsaga (Mauritania). The chemical and structural data testified a retrograde metamorphism from amphibolite to greenschist facies, witnessed by relative changes in the amount of all the major oxides (Cr, Al, Mg, Fe2+, Fe3+), the relative proportion of Fe/Fetot as well as the structur...
