The resonance Raman spectra of neutrophil cytochrome b558 obtained upon Soret excitation indicate that the heme is low spin six-coordinate in both ferric and ferrous oxidation states; comparison with the spectra of bis-imidazole hemin suggests imidazole or imidazolate axial ligation. Minor bands attributable to vibrational motions of ring-conjugated vinyl substituents were also observed, consis...

Compounds of poly(ionic liquid)s (PILs), derived from imidazole with different alkylic chain lengths located in the third position of the imidazolium ring (poly(1-vinyl-3-dodecyl-imidazolium) (PImC12), poly(1-vinyl-3-octylimidazolium) (PImC₈) and poly(1-vinyl-3-butylimidazolium) (PImC₄) hexafluorophosphate) were synthesized. These compounds were tested as corrosion inhibitors on aluminum alloy ...

Froth flotation has been a key chemical process extensively used in the recovery of heavy metal ions (e.g. Cu2+) from contaminated water, while often criticized by secondary pollution added collectors, and less selectivity to specific since ion removal particles is independent post-step particle flotation. To facilitate industrial operation, “smart” with foams responsively stabilized after sele...

Although our recent studies revealed that under Ar microwave plasma conditions reactions of imidazole with poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) result in the formation of Si-CH2-imidazole species, the issue of the discharge gas effect on microwave plasma reactions remain unanswered. This study examines how these reactions in the presence of Ar, O2, and CO2 gases under microwave plasma conditions will ...

In the title compound, [Pd(C(9)H(12)N)Cl(C(4)H(6)N(2))], which was synthesized from the reaction of 1-methyl-imidazole with dimeric dichloridobis[2-(dimethyl-amino)-benz-yl]palla-dium(II), the ring-deprotonated N,N-dimethyl-benzyl-amine ligand acts in a C,N-bidentate fashion. The dihedral angle between the ring of the 1-methyl-imidazole ligand and the palladacycle plane is 57.88 (16)°. The two ...

Low-temperature studies of the simple variously substituted imidazole types 4-phenyl-1H-imidazole, C9H8N2, 1-benzyl-1Himidazole, C10H10N2, and 1-mesityl-1H-imidazole, C12H14N2, extend comparisons between parent imidazole species and their derivatives, the pronounced double-bond localization opposite the substituted N atom common to simple neutral species being redistributed aromatically on prot...
