Cr-Fe-C alloy deposits were successfully prepared on high-carbon tool steel in a Cr3+-based electroplating bath containing Fe2+ ions and suitable complex agents. A Cr-based alloy deposit was obtained with an electroplating current density higher than 25 Adm-2, and a Fe-based alloy deposit was obtained using a current density of 20 Adm-2. Following electroplating, these alloy deposited specimens...

The reaction of Fe(C≡CC≡N)(dppe)Cp (1) with one-half equivalent of [trans-Fe(N≡CMe)2(dppx)2][BF4]2 (dppx = dppe ([2][BF4]2) or dppm ([3][BF4]2)) affords trimetallic [trans-Fe{N≡CC≡CFe(dppe)Cp}2(dppx)2][BF4]2 (dppx = dppe [4][BF4]2; dppx = dppm [5][BF4]2). Both [4][BF4]2 and [5][BF4]2 undergo three, one-electron oxidation processes, arising from sequential oxidation of the two terminal Fe(C≡CR)(...

Powdered samples of a suite of 14 CR and CR-like chondrites, ranging from petrologic grade 1 to 3, were spectrally characterized over the 0.3–2.5 lm interval as part of a larger study of carbonaceous chondrite reflectance spectra. Spectral analysis was complicated by absorption bands due to Fe oxyhydroxides near 0.9 lm, resulting from terrestrial weathering. This absorption feature masks expect...

The syntheses, structures, and magnetic properties of compounds of formula [Fe(III)(5-Clsal(2)-trien)][Mn(II)Cr(III)(ox)(3)]·0.5(CH(3)NO(2)) (1), [Fe(III)(5-Brsal(2)-trien)][Mn(II)Cr(III)(ox)(3)] (2), and [In(III)(5-Clsal(2)-trien)][Mn(II)Cr(III)(ox)(3)] (3) are reported. The structure of the three compounds, which crystallize in the orthorhombic P2(1)2(1)2(1) chiral space group, presents a 3D ...

The insertion of a [Fe(sal2-trien)](+) complex cation into a 2D oxalate network in the presence of different solvents results in a family of hybrid magnets with coexistence of magnetic ordering and photoinduced spin-crossover (LIESST effect) in compounds [Fe(III)(sal2-trien)][Mn(II)Cr(III)(ox)3]·CHCl3 (1·CHCl3), [Fe(III)(sal2-trien)][Mn(II)Cr(III)(ox)3]·CHBr3 (1·CHBr3), and [Fe(III)(sal2-trien)...

A new recoverable molybdenum nanocatalyst was prepared by immobilization  of a Schiff base ligand on the surface of silica coated magnetite nanoparticles (Fe3O4@SiO2) through condensation reaction between 3-aminopropyl triethoxysilane and 2-hydroxy1-naphthaldehyde and succeeding reaction with dioxomolybdenum(VI) acetylacetonate (MoO2(acac)2). The synthesized cat...

novel nano-catalysts (nano zno and fe doped zno (fe(0.1)zn(0.99)o) synthesized by co-precipitation method in aqueous solution as new nanocatalysts and characterized by common techniques as ftir, xrd, sem and uvd. the size of particles obtained from xrd data is 27 and 16 nanometers for zno and fresno respectively. influences of doped fe on zno catalytic properties in oxidation of benzylic alcoho...
