The title compound, [Na(CF(3)O(3)S)(C(12)H(24)O(6))], features a sodium cation that is coordinated by eight O atoms in an irregular hexa-gonal bipyramidal environment. The equatorial positions are occupied by the six O atoms of an 18-crown-6 ether ring. In the axial positions, there is one O atom of a trifluoro-methane-sulfonate anion and an ether O atom of a symmetry-equivalent crown ether rin...

We studied the electric properties of phosphatidylcholine bilayers modified with crown ether (dibenzo[18] crown-6). The studies were carried out for various crown ether concentrations in forming solutions and various potassium ion concentrations in electrolyte solutions. The presence of crown ether in the membrane influences the membrane's impedance; there is a reduction in its resistivity, a d...

The synthesis and cation-binding properties of a series of Calixarene derivatives possessing alkyl chain groups, ester groups and crown ether rings have been investigated. The syntheses of Calix[4]arene crown ethers and Calix[6]arene derivatives possessing alkyl chain, ester group and crown ether ring have been described. In order to evaluate their monovalent cation binding abilities, solvent e...

The reaction of [Zr(TrenDMBS )(Cl)] [Zr1; TrenDMBS =N(CH2 CH2 NSiMe2 But )3 ] with NaPH2 gave the terminal parent phosphanide complex [Zr(TrenDMBS )(PH2 )] [Zr2; Zr-P=2.690(2) Å]. Treatment of Zr2 with one equivalent of KCH2 C6 H5 and two equivalents of benzo-15-crown-5 ether (B15C5) afforded an unprecedented example (outside of matrix isolation) of a structurally authenticated transition-metal...

The photochemical behaviors of a series of 9-phenanthreneacetamide (PA) derivatives were investigated using UV, fluorescence, and (1)H-NMR spectroscopy in acetonitrile solutions. To apply the electron transfer (ET) action of PA as a detecting moiety of chemosensors, 4'-(9-phenanthreneacetamido)-benzo-15-crown-5 (1) and 3'-methyl-4'-(9-phenanthreneacetamido)-benzo-15-crown-5 (2) were synthesized...

The pH-profiles of the extraction of Cs(+) into four conventional (1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate and bis[trifluoromethyl)sulphonyl]imides of 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium, 1-hexyl-3-methylimidazolium, and 1-(2-ethylhexyl)-3- methylimidazolium) and two novel (trioctylmethylammonium salicylate and tetrahexylammonium dihexylsulfosuccinate) room temperature ionic liquids have been d...

The title compound (systematic name: cis-anti-cis-2,5,8,15,18,21-hexa-oxatri-cyclo-[20.4.0.0(9,14)]hexa-cosane aceto-nitrile disolvate), C20H36O6·2CH3CN, crystallizes from an aceto-nitrile solution of di-cyclo-hexane-18-crown-6 on evaporation. The mol-ecule is arranged around a center of symmetry with half the crown ether mol-ecule and one mol-ecule of aceto-nitrile symmetry independent. All O-...
