A general and rapid procedure is developed for the selective tritylation of the 'primary OH-function of the four common ribonucleosides, ascorbic acid, and polyhydric compounds. Silver ion was found to have a marked effect on tritylation reactions

A highly selective electrode for Bromide ion based on aza pyrilium derivative as an excellentionophore is described.The sensor exhibits a good linear response with a slope of ( 60±1 ) mV per decadeover the concentration range of ( 1×10-3 – 9×10-6 M ) , and a detection limit of ( 3×10-6 M ) of Bromideions .The electrode response is independent of pH in the range of(4.0 –9.5).Selectivity coeffici...

A new bispyrenyl azadiene derivative has been synthesized and examined for its cation recognition abilities toward different cations. The ligand shows strong affinity for Hg(2+) ions over other cations such as Cu(2+), Pb(2+), Zn(2+), Ni(2+), Cd(2+), Ag(+), K(+), Na(+) and Li(+). An "Off-On" type of fluorescent behaviour was observed with simultaneous presence of Cu(2+) and Hg(2+) ions. An ion s...

Lithium solid electrolytes can potentially address two key limitations of the organic electrolytes used in today's lithium-ion batteries, namely, their flammability and limited electrochemical stability. However, achieving a Li(+) conductivity in the solid state comparable to existing liquid electrolytes (>1 mS cm(-1)) is particularly challenging. In this work, we reveal a fundamental relations...

We perform a high-resolution real-time readout of the motion of a single trapped and laser-cooled Ba+ ion. By using an interferometric setup, we demonstrate a shot-noise-limited measurement of thermal oscillations with a resolution of 4 times the standard quantum limit. We apply the real-time monitoring for phase control of the ion motion through a feedback loop, suppressing the photon recoil-i...

Highly flexible and efficient silver nanowire-based organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) have been successfully fabricated by employing a n-type hole injection layer (HIL). The silver nanowire-based OLEDs without light outcoupling structures exhibited excellent device characteristics such as extremely low turn-on voltage (3.6 V) and high current and power efficiencies (44.5 cd A(-1) and 35.8 l...

The composition of a polymeric potential-determining phase for ketoprofen selective electrode has been determined and the following basic electrode parameters were examined: measurement range, slope characteristic, limit of detection, response time, lifetime and selectivity coefficients in relation to some organic and inorganic anions. The electrode have been used for ketoprofen determination i...

A new approach on the synthesis of Si anodes for Li-ion batteries is reported, combining advantages of both nanoparticulated and continuous Si films. A multilayered configuration prototype is proposed, comprising amorphous Si arranged in nanostructured, mechanically heterogeneous films, interspersed with Ta nanoparticle scaffolds. Particular structural features such as increased surface roughne...

A PVC ion-selective membrane electrode based on Cd-tetraphenyl porphyrine as a carrier was prepared fordetermination of MnO4- ion. This electrode revealed good selectivity toward permanganate ion over a widevariety of anions. Effects of some experimental parameters such as nature of the plasticizer, the amounts ofcarrier and additive, and concentration of the internal solution on the potential ...
