the zinc(ii) complex [zn2(dmdtc)2(μ-dmdtc)2] has been synthesized directly from thiram ligand, containing a disulfide bond {dmdtc = n,n-dimethyldithiocarbamate; thiram = n,n-tetramethylthiuram disulfide}, and characterized by elemental analysis and spectroscopic methods. surprisingly thiram, undergoes a reductive disulfide bond scission upon reaction with zn2+ in methanolic media to give the [z...

A novel 1D coordination polymer that dynamically expands or shrinks upon the uptake of vapours of volatile small chlorinated molecules, such as 1,2-dichloroethane (DCE), dichloromethane (DCM) and trichloromethane (TCM), is reported. This system is robust enough to withstand multiple guest exchange via single-crystal-to-single-crystal transformation, as proved by (1)H-NMR and X-ray diffraction. ...

The morphology of the heterogeneous CrxTi1-xSe2 and CrxTi1-xS2 single crystals has been studied using X-ray scanning photoemission microscopy (SPEM) angular resolved spectroscopy (ARPES). A direct method SPEM provided us insight into origin blurred ARPES images for Cr0.78Ti0.36Se2 crystal. Using SPEM, we confirmed formation CrSe2-based structural fragments inside with x ≥ 0.75. chemical composi...
