The high-performance separation of alkaline earth and transition metal ions on a bare porous silica 10.0 cm× 0.46 cm monolith (Merck Chromolith Si) was achieved using solvent enhanced ion chromatography. Using acetonitrile or methanol based ammonium and sodium acetate buffered mobile phases, the effect upon cation retention of mobile phase ionic strength, organic content and pH were evaluated. ...

Magnetic metal (Mn, Fe, Co, and Ni) oxides nanocrystals with small size and uniform size distribution are synthesized via a cation-exchange reaction. Two experimental stages are included in the synthesis of metal oxides nanocrystals. Firstly, Cu(OH)2 decomposes to CuO nanocrystals, induced by free metal cations. Compared to CuO nanocrystals produced without any free metal cation, the free metal...

It is known that the electro-transport and magnetism of perovskite alkaline-earth ruthenate oxides are sensitive to the lattice distortion associated with the A-site cation size. Orthorhombic CaRuO3 and cubic BaRuO3 exhibit distinctly different electro-transport and magnetic properties from orthorhombic SrRuO3. It has been suggested that SrRuO3 can be robust against some intrinsic/external pert...

alkali and alkaline earth metals hydrogen sulfate catalyzed the one-pot three component condensation reactions of aldehydes, 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds and urea or thiourea under solvent-free conditions leading to 3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1h)-ones in high yields at 80 °c. our results showed that biginelli reaction not only is ph dependent, but the cation of catalyst plays an important role.

Methods have been developed for the addition of different metal ion species to the three distinct pairs of metal sites (A, B, and C) found in the dimer of apoalkaline phosphatase. This allows the preparation of hybrid alkaline phosphatases in which A and B sites of each monomer contain two different species of metal ion or the A and B sites of one monomer contain the same species of metal ion, ...

Divalent metal complexes of macrocyclic ligand 1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane-1,8-bis(methylphosphonic acid)) (1,8-H4te2p, H4L) were investigated in solution and in the solid state. The majority of transition-metal ions form thermodynamically very stable complexes as a consequence of high affinity for the nitrogen atoms of the ring. On the other hand, complexes with Mn2+, Pb2+ and alkaline e...

In a previous communication (Li, H.-C., Hsiao, K.-J., and Chan, W. W. S. (1978) Eur. J. Biochem 84,215-225) we reported the purification of a divalent cation-independent, nonspecific phosphoprotein phosphatase (phosphatase S, M, = 35,000) from canine cardiac muscle to apparent homogeneity. It was found that the homogeneous enzyme preparation exhibited significant activity toward p-nitrophenyl p...

The adsorption and desorption of N2O on main-group ion-exchanged ZSM-5 was studied using temperature-programmed desorption (TPD) and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. TPD experiments were carried out to determine the desorbed temperature Tmax corresponding to the maximum mass intensity of N2O desorption peak and adsorption capacity of N2O on metal-ion-exchanged ZSM-5s. The results i...
