Photolysis of [Ni(II)(μ-Cl)Cl(IPr)](2) (IPr = 1,3-bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)imidazol-2-ylidene) activates the Ni-Cl bonds to furnish [Ni(I)(μ-Cl)(IPr)](2). Consistent with this photochemistry, a TD-DFT calculation for square planar Ni(ii) centre reveals that light excitation leads to the population of orbitals with σ*(Ni-Cl) character.

background and purpose: recently, release of pollutants such as heavy metal ions to the environment becomes one of the most important problems for soil and water. the present study was conducted to introduce modified rice husk (rh) as a new low-cost adsorbent. materials and methods: in this study, tartaric acid modified rh (tarh), was used as an adsorbent for removal of ni(ii) and cd(ii) from w...

The uptake mechanisms of Ni(II) on mordenite were investigated by 13 macroscopic experiments and extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) 14 spectroscopy. The results demonstrated that Ni(II) could be retained via different 15 mechanisms, depending on pH, ionic strength, temperature etc. At low pH, the uptake 16 of Ni(II) is primarily dominated by cation exchange and/or outer-sphere sur...

The stability constants of species present in the systems Ni(II)-pyridoxamine(pym)(A) and Ni(II)-pyridoxamine(pym)(A)-imidazole containing ligands(B) [B = imidazole(him),  benzimidazole(bim), histamine(hist) and L-histidine(his)] have been determined pH-metrically using the MINIQUAD computer program. The existence of the species NiAH, NiA and NiA2 was proven for the Ni(II)-pym(A)...

Ni(II)-dimethylglyoxime ion-imprinted polymer (Ni(II)-DMG IIP) was encapsulated in polysulphone and electrospun into nanofibres with diameters ranging from 406 to 854 nm. The structures of the Ni(II)-DMG encapsulated-IIP nanofibre, non-imprinted encapsulated-polymer nanofibre and polysulphone nanofibre mats were observed by scanning electron microscopy and evaluated by infrared spectroscopy. El...

The mononuclear Ni(II) amide, [Ni(C(12)H(21)N(2)Si)(2)], has the Ni(II) atom N,N'-chelated by the N-silylated anilinide ligands. The ligands are arranged cis to each other and obey the C(2)-symmetry operation. The two ends of the N-Si-N chelating unit exhibit different affinities for the metal atom: the Ni-N(anilinide) bond length is 1.913 (3) Å and Ni-N(amine) is 2.187 (3) Å. The four-coordina...

the stability constants and complexation reaction between l-glutamine, l-arginine andglycine with zn (ii) , co (ii) and ni (ii) were studied potentiometrically in aqueous solution at25° c and μ=0.1 m kno3. the overall stability constants log β´s of all species are obtained bycomputer refinement of ph-volume data using best computer program. several models weretested and the lowest δfit, the bes...

In the mononuclear title compound, [Ni(CH(3)COO)(2)(C(6)H(6)N(2)O)(2)], the Ni(II) atom is coordinated by two pyridine-2-aldoxime (PaoH) ligands and two acetate groups, with cis coordination for the pairs of identical ligands. While each acetate group binds to the Ni(II) atom by one O atom, each PaoH chelates the Ni(II) atom through two N atoms. The O atom on PaoH is not deprotonated and does n...

The title complex, [Ni(C(10)H(10)N(6))(2)][Ni(CN)(4)]·2H(2)O, contains an octa-hedral nickel(II) cation and a square-planar nickel(II) anion. Both the cation and the anion reside on a crystallographic center of inversion. The Ni(II) center in the cation is coordinated by six pyrazol-1-yl rings of two chelating tripyrazol-1-ylmethane [HC(pz)(3)] ligands, with Ni-N distances that range between 2....
