a series of schiff bases of ni(ii) and cu(ii) using acetylacetone (acac), salicylaldehyde (sal), ethylenediamine (en), and o-phenylendiarnine (dabe) were prepared and characterized. the electronic spectra of some copper chelates in various organic solvents depend strongly on the solvent used and the d-d band of cu(ii) shifts to red with the increase of the donor number (dn) of solvent. the colo...

the solubility of kno3 in the mixed solvent (water 85%+methanol 15%) were determined by using solvent evaporating method at different temperatures (25, 30, 40, 50, 60 ;c). in addition the equilibrium constant of ion pair formation, kip, for k+no3 – ion-pair on the basis of fuoss contact ion pair model was calculated. upon choosing the extended debye-hückel model for estimating the mean activity...

A semi-empirical study into the effects of residual casting solvent on the lithographic properties of photoresist is described. Solvent content of a commercial i-line photoresist after post apply bake has been measured using a quartz crystal microbalance and using radio-labeled solvent with scintillation counting. Analysis of this data has led to a calibrated model of solvent diffusivity as a f...

The ability to accurately model solvent effects on free energy surfaces is important for understanding many biophysical processes including protein folding and misfolding, allosteric transitions, and protein–ligand binding. Although all-atom simulations in explicit solvent can provide an accurate model for biomolecules in solution, explicit solvent simulations are hampered by the slow equilibra...
