Organic solvents are pervasive in the communal and industrial environments. Although many are potent central nervous system agents, clearly delineated behavioral effects have played only a minor role in the formation of exposure standards. A comprehensive behavioral pharmacology and toxicology of these compounds is one aim of US/USSR collaboration. The current report describes some actions of c...

High pressure plays an increasingly important role in both understanding superconductivity and the development of new superconducting materials. New superconductors were found in metallic and metal oxide systems at high pressure. However, because of the filled close-shell configuration, the superconductivity in molecular systems has been limited to charge-transferred salts and metal-doped carbo...

Abstract. Carbonyl sulphide (OCS) is the most abundant, long-lived sulphur gas in atmosphere and a major supplier of to stratospheric sulphate aerosol layer. The short-lived carbon disulphide (CS2) oxidized OCS constitutes indirect source atmospheric budget. budget not well constrained due large missing needed compensate for substantial evidence that was provided significantly higher sinks. Oce...

Accompanied by a change in color from red to black, the enantiomorphic phases of cobalt complexes chiral salen ligand (L2?, Co(L)·CS2, and Co(L) (L = LS,S or LR,R)) chemisorb NO (g) at atmospheric pressure rt over hours for CS2 solvated phase, within seconds desolvated phase. is installed as an axial nitrosyl ligand. Aligned but unconnected voids desorbed Co(LR,R)·CS2 structure indicate conduit...

The infrared absorption spectrum of carbon disulfide has been remeasured in the region from 2 to 24 I' with cells up to 5 mm in t hickness. Fifteen bands were observed , some however being of low intensity. The strongest band for the liquid occurs at 6.621' , and t he second harmonic of this band was observed at 2.22 1' , but t he first harm onic, which should be at about 3.33 1' , was not obse...
