The structures of three dinuclear zinc-amido complexes, involved in the very first step preparation zinc oxide nanoparticles via an organometallic route, have been investigated by density functional theory computational studies. various zinc–nitrogen and zinc–cyclohexyl bonds are finely characterized using quantum atoms molecules electron localization function (ELF) topological analyses. result...

Extended x-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) spectroscopy was combined with thermodynamic and kinetic approaches to investigate zinc binding to a zinc finger (C2H2) and a tetrathiolate (C4) peptide. Both peptides represent structural zinc sites of proteins and rapidly bind a single zinc ion with picomolar dissociation constants. In competition with EDTA the transfer of peptide-bound zinc io...

Lead, copper, cobalt, nickel, iron and zinc ions form monocitrate complexes (negative charge) in citrate solution which is absorbed on the citrate form of anion-exchange resins (citrate as counter ion) y exchange of citrate ion with citrate complexes. These are subsequently recovered from the resin by 0.5M ammonium citrate eluent at pH 2.0. Under optimized conditions, quantitative recovery ...

The syntheses and structures of five mononuclear zinc and cadmium selone complexes along with a polynuclear cadmium selone 1D chain were described. The mononuclear homoleptic zinc selone complexes were the first examples of structurally characterized zinc(ii) selone complexes. The spectral properties of the zinc and cadmium selone derivatives were investigated. Interesting structural diversity,...

The title compound, PHZ, can be viewed as 1,5-diazacyclooctane (daco) having carbon-3 and carbon-7 fused to benzene rings restricting the vibrational freedom of these carbons and rendering the axial positions in the complexes open for fifth and sixth coordination. Copper(II), nickel(H) and zinc(H) complexes of P H Z have been prepared. Copper(II) formed monoand bis-complexes, whereas nickel(H) ...

The reactions of 3,5-dimethylpyrazole with zinc(II)acetate dihydrate and varieties of aromatic carboxylic acids led to formation of mono-nuclear zinc complexes of composition [Zn(HDMP)2(RCO2)2] (R = C6H5, p-CH3-C6H4, p-NO2-C6H4 etc. HDMP = 3,5-dimethylpyrazole) in methanol, whereas the same reactants in dimethylformamide (DMF) gave binuclear 3,5-dimethylpyrazolato bridged zinc carboxylate compl...

Eight bis-ligated, homoleptic, zinc complexes were synthesized through the reaction of NNO Schiff base ketoimines bearing varying substituents with diethyl zinc in an inert atmosphere glovebox at room temperature and isolated in 62-95% yield. The complexes were characterized with (1)H, (13)C, and (19)F nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, absorbance spectroscopy, high resolution mass spectr...

The corrosion inhibition performance of acetylacetonate complexes of zinc(II), manganese(II), cobalt(II) and copper(II) on the mild steel substrate in 1M H3PO4 was studied using DC polarization. It was seen that the mentioned complexes decreased corrosion rate of mild steel in phosphoric acid media due to the adsorption on metal surface. The potential of mild steel shifted toward more active po...

Glabrin (2-Piperidine, carboxylic acid, 4, 5, dihydroxy, -1-methyl) was isolated from Pongamia glabra seeds and metal complexes were prepared by refluxing with acetates of cupper, zinc and mercury, estimation was carried out by simple idometric method for copper complex and E.D.T.A. method for zinc and mercury complexes of glabrin. Results of present study reveal that the metal complexes show c...

Zinc finger domains are structures that mediate sequence recognition for a large number of DNA-binding proteins. These domains consist of sequences of amino acids containing cysteine and histidine residues tetrahedrally coordinated to a zinc ion. In this report, we present a means to selectively inhibit a zinc finger transcription factor with cobalt(III) Schiff-base complexes. 1H NMR spectrosco...
