The thermodynamic of the known and very effective catalytic system, hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and methyltrioxorhenium (MTO) is studied in different solvents using UV-Visible spectroscopic method. The thermodynamic parameters (ΔG, ΔH and ΔS) for two equilibrium reactions, MTO + H2O2 ⇌ A + H2O and A + H2O2 ⇌ B.H2O (A, [MeRe(O)2(O2)]; B.H2O, [MeRe(OH2)(O)(O2)2]), are determined. The obtained free e...

Vicinal proton-proton NMR couplings and ab initio quantum mechanics have been used to investigate solvent effects on conformational equilibria of butanedinitrile. The trans and gauche conformations are about equally favored at room temperature in solvents of low dielectric constant while the equilibrium is essentially the statistical proportions of one-third trans and two-thirds gauche in water...

The electron transfer rate constant is treated using the spin-boson Hamiltonian model. The spectral density is related to the experimentally accessible data on the dielectric dispersion of the solvent, using a dielectric continuum approximation. On this basis the quantum correction for the ferrous-ferric electron transfer rate is found to be a factor 9.6. This value is smaller than the correspo...

Nucleic acids are useful for biomedical targeting and sensing applications in which the molecular environment is different from that of a dilute aqueous solution. In this study, the influence of various types of mixed solutions of water and water-soluble organic compounds on RNA was investigated by measuring the catalytic activity of the hammerhead ribozyme and the thermodynamic stability of an...

The polarographic study of Cd(II) with L-Tyrosine has been investigated in aqueous organic solvent mixtures at 300K. The Dimethyl sulphoxide and Dimethyl formamide solvents have been used with water to study the effect of solvents on the stability of complexes. Cadmium(II) formed 1:1, 1:2 and 1:3 complexes with L-Tyrosine in the aqueous-organic solvent mixture i.e. DMSO and DMF. The stability c...

the interaction of anticancer drug sn (ch3)2(n-acetyl-l-cysteinate) with carbon nanotube (cnt)is investigated by quantum chemical ab initio calculations at fif/ (lanl2dz+sto-3g) and hf/(lanl2dz+6-31g) levels in gas phase and solution. the solvent effect is taken into account viathe self-consistent reaction field (scrf) method. carbon nanotubes can act as a suitable drugdelivery vehicle for inte...

The dielectric properties of a methanol-water mixture were measured at different temperatures from 20 to 80 °C at two frequencies 915 MHz and 2450 MHz. These frequencies are most commonly used on industrial and domestic scales respectively. In this study, the dielectric properties of a methanol-water mixture were found to be dependent on temperature, solvent concentration, and presence of plant...

using the mixed solvents, (water +ethanol + propanol), the solubility of cdf2 was determined byevaporating method at 25° c. the results showed that the sollbility, s, of cdf2 decreases bydecreasing the dielectric constant of the mixed solvent .once the solubility of cdf2 was determined,the concentration solubility product, ksp(c)=4s3, was calculated .furthermore ,by estimating the meanactivity ...
