Nano-structured copper oxides were successfully prepared through direct calcination of 1D ladderlike metal-organic framework [Cu2(btec)(2,2'-bipy)2]∞, (btec = 1,2,4,5-benzenetetracarboxylate and 2,2'-bipy = 2,2'-bipyridine) and porous coordination polymer [Cu(BDC)(bipy)](BDCH2), (BDC = 1,4-benzenedicarboxylate; bipy = 4,4'-bipyridine). The nano-structure of the as-synthesized samples are charac...

XML-centric models of computation have been proposed as an answer to the demand for interoperability, heterogeneity and openness in coordination models. We present a prototype implementation of an open XML-centric coordination middleware called Distributed Reactive XML. The middleware has as theoretical foundation a general distributed extensible process calculus inspired by the theory of Bigra...

A branched iron-phenanthroline based coordination polymer has been constructed in a water based system using a click chemistry approach to link monomeric coordination complexes together within a protein cage nanoarchitecture, which acts both as a template and a sized constrained reaction environment.

the aim of this research was to investigate the situation of talent identification process and to collect karate related indexes in iran. for this purpose, 63 karate subjects, male (n=31) and female (n=32), participated and filled in 3 special questionnaires to identify present and optimal situation of talent identification and most important aspects of biometric, motor capabilities, psychologi...

Zinc(II) complexes with dangling functional organic groups were synthesized by reaction of zinc acetate with a series of bifunctional p-substituted benzene derivatives (a combination of carboxylate, oximate, amino, β-ketoimine, and salicylaldime groups). Selective coordination to carboxylate groups was observed when the second functional group was an oxime or β-ketoimine group. When the second ...

A simple and straightforward synthesis of a new linear trinuclear Cu(I) cluster with polyphosphine ligands is presented. The reaction of this pre-organized Cu3 precursor with En ligand complexes (E = P, As; n = 2, 5) affords discrete complexes exhibiting end-on η(1)-coordination of the E2 ligands or one-dimensional coordination polymers featuring σ-1,3-bridging E5 rings, respectively.

Luminescence-decay measurements in combination with high-performance liquid chromatography analyses were used to study the relationship between rates of catalysis and water-coordination numbers of europium-based precatalysts in the aqueous Mukaiyama aldol reaction. A correlation between reactivity and water-coordination number was observed and is reported here.

Diethyl citrate (Et2Cit) is a new potential anticoagulant. The coordination dynamics and coordination mechanism of Et2Cit with Ca(2+) ions and the effect of pH on the complex were examined. The result was compared with that for the conventional anticoagulant sodium citrate (Na3Cit). The reaction order (n) of Et2Cit and Na3Cit with Ca(2+) was 2.46 and 2.44, respectively. The reaction rate consta...

Regulating the coordination environment via heteroatoms to break symmetrical electronic structure of M-N4 active sites provides a promising route engineer metal-nitrogen-carbon catalysts for electrochemical CO2 reduction reaction. However, it remains challenging realize site-specific introduction at atomic level due their energetically unstable nature. Here, this paper reports facile using an o...

Reaction coordinates for chemical reactions in solution are often of a collective nature involving solvent degrees of freedom. A recent generalization of the blue-moon ensemble technique has enabled us to determine the free energy required to change these variables, using them as constraints in a molecular dynamics simulation. We discuss a Ðrst application to the free energy of coordination Ñuc...
