Actinide nitrides, in particular UN, are being considered as fuel types for advanced reactor systems. Here, we demonstrate a low-temperature synthesis route on uranium that could be developed into a commercial fabrication process for UN and mixed actinide nitride fuels. UN was successfully synthesized from UO2 by first reacting with NH4HF2 in a ball mill at 20 C to form tetravalent ammonium ura...

The fluoride content in the urine, hair, and nails of 106 workers employed in a phosphate fertiliser plant was significantly raised above the control level. Positive correlations were found between the group means for concentrations of fluorides in urine and hair (r = 0.77), urine and nails (r = 0.99), and hair and nails (r = 0.70). Individual values in the whole population gave significant cor...

The KF, sucrose (table sugar) exploited as quenching system in solution phase parallel synthesis. Excess of electrophiles were covalently trapped with hydroxyl functionality of sucrose and due to polar nature of sucrose derivative was solubilize in water. Potassium fluoride used to convert various excess electrophilic reagents such as acid chlorides, sulfonyl chlorides, isocyanates to correspon...

Introduction Recently, /3-disulphones wrere synthesised in high yields from sulphonyl fluorides by interaction with alkylmagnesium bromides [1]. It is assumed that this reaction proceeds through the formation of a monosulphone which undergoes a-metallation followed by further reaction with the sulphonyl fluoride to produce /?-disulphone. Since aromatic sulphones cannot be metallated at the a-po...

We present a first-principles study of the series of multiferroic barium fluorides with the composition BaMF4, where M is Mn, Fe, Co, or Ni. We discuss trends in the structural, electronic, and magnetic properties, and we show that the ferroelectricity in these systems results from the freezing in of a single unstable polar phonon mode. In contrast to the case of the standard perovskite ferroel...

This work describes the application of pentafluoropyridine (PFP), a cheap commercially available reagent, in deoxyfluorination carboxylic acids to acyl fluorides. The fluorides can be formed from range under mild conditions. We also demonstrate that PFP utilized one-pot amide bond formation via situ generation bond-forming reaction gives ready access amides yields ?94%.

P,N,N-Pincer nickel complexes [Ni(Cl){N(2-R2PC6H4)(2'-Me2NC6H4)}] (R = Ph, 3a; R = Pr(i), 3b; R = Cy, 3c) were synthesized and their catalysis toward the Kumada or Negishi cross-coupling reaction of aryl fluorides and chlorides was evaluated. Complex 3a effectively catalyzes the cross-coupling of (hetero)aryl fluorides with aryl Grignard reagents at room temperature. Complex 3a also catalyzes t...
