A facile synthesis of a new bisoxazoline ligand is described. This ligand contains a urea bridging unit and is capable of stabilizing bimetallic complexes. An X-ray crystal structure of a bis-copper complex is reported.

die less explosive forming of circular plates is one of the most useful methods in the industries especially chemical applications. manufacturing of large vessel's head, multilayer rings and some parts of heat exchangers are the example of applying this method. many theoretical and experimental researches about examining the explosive forming of simple and single layer plate have been done...

The synthesis, structure, and spectroscopic features of a bimetallic cyanogen complex obtained from the reductive coupling of cyanide by a niobium(IV) precursor are described, and a mechanism for the coupling reaction is proposed based on DFT calculations.

We present a detailed analysis of the structural and magnetic properties of solution-grown PtCo-CdS hybrid structures in comparison to similar free-standing PtCo alloy nanoparticles. X-ray absorption spectroscopy is utilized as a sensitive probe for identifying subtle differences in the structure of the hybrid materials. We found that the growth of bimetallic tips on a CdS nanorod substrate lea...

This review focuses on the chemical methods used to prepare supported bimetallic heterogeneous catalysts, i.e., bimetallic nanoparticles deposited on a support. The review is limited to the preparation of gold-based bimetallic catalysts and moreover to bimetallic nanoparticles supported on powder inorganic supports, i.e., on the surface or in the porosity, and not on model supports such as sing...

Diphosphorus is a reactive molecule that can be studied only in the gas phase or inert matrices. In this issue of Chem, Holthausen, Schneider, and co-workers describe isolation first bona fide metal complex neutral diphosphorus molecule, heavy analog well-established dinitrogen compounds. Within periodic table, heavier p-block elements exhibit chemical physical properties are distinctly differe...

Self-propulsion and directed movement of nanoand micro-particles can in principle provide novel components for applications in microrobotics and MEMS. Our research involves the design of catalytic propulsion systems and the control of colloidal movement based on this principle. We have designed autonomous nanomotors that mimic biological motors by using catalytic reactions to generate forces de...

The bimetallic bis(pentalene) complex (μ:η(5),η(5)-Pn(†))2Ti2 reductively splits CO2 to form a bis(oxo) bridged dimer [(η(8)-Pn(†))Ti(μ-O)]2, in which the Ti-Ti bond has been cleaved, and the dicarbonyl complex (μ:η(5),η(5)-Pn(†))2[Ti(CO)]2.

A series of bimetallic zinc complexes bearing salicylaldiminato (1b-3b) or anilido-aldimine (4c-5c) ligand frameworks, in which the metal centres are separated by aliphatic spacer groups containing 3-6 methylene units, were targeted. X-Ray analysis of salicylaldiminato derivative 2b, with a 4 carbon spacer group, revealed a coordination polymer in the solid state where each zinc centre is ligat...

A novel bimetallic conjugate combining a rhodium intercalator that selectively binds DNA mismatches and a reactive cis-platinum analogue that targets DNA by coordination has been prepared. The site-selectivity of the bimetallic complex in forming coordination adducts is examined using mismatched and well-matched oligonucleotides of different sequences. The results indicate that through the bifu...
