A condensation of various isatins with indole derivatives has been carried out in the presence of 1,3-dibromo-5,5-dimethylhydantoin (DBDMH) as catalyst at 50 °C in ethanol in order to form 3,3-bis(indolyl) oxindoles. The products were obtained within 20-90 min by 70-96% yields. The efficacy of the procedure has been confirmed by catalyzing the condensation reaction of pyrrole which was used as ...

The goal of this work was to synthesize substituted polystyrene for metal extraction and/or depollution by introduction of substituted piperazines as chelatants starting from Merrifield polymer. After transformation of Merrifield’s resin in azidomethyl polystyrene, click-chemistry using copper (I)-catalyzed Huisgen’s reaction (CuAAC) was performed to prepare different polymers grafted with 1,4-...

In this work, the effect of functional groups on I 2 sorption kinetics is investigated using two different types isostructural metal‐organic frameworks, UiO‐66‐X series (X = H, Br, NO , NH (OH) and (COOH) ) M ( m ‐DOBDC) series, (M Co2+, Mg2+, Ni2+; ‐DOBDC 4− 4,6‐dioxo‐1,3‐benzenedicarboxylate). Among UiO‐66‐(COOH) exhibits fastest highest capacity due to dipole‐induced dipole interactions betw...

Nickel(II) complexes with 2,3-dihydroxybenzaldehyde N4-substituted thiosemicarbazone ligands (H3L – H3L ) have been synthesized and characterized with the aim of evaluating the effect of N4 substitution in the thiosemicarbazone moiety on their coordination behavior and biological activities. Two series of nickel(II) complexes with the general formulae [Ni(H3L)(H2L)]ClO4 and [Ni2(HL)2] were char...

The structure of Ni active sites supported on amorphous silica-alumina supports with different contents Al2O3 loadings in relation to their activities ethylene oligomerization were investigated. Two kinds detected by situ FTIR-CO and H2-TPR experiments, that are Ni2+ cations as grafted weak acidic silanols at ion-exchange positions. these Ni/ASA catalysts found an ascending tendency the loading...

Background: Mushroom Tyrosinase a potent candidate in clinical studies known as polyphenol oxidase, is a metaloenzyme from the oxidase superfamily widely distributed from lower to higher life forms. It plays a crucial role in sclerotization of exoskeleton in insects, also responsible for skin pigmentation in mammalians. Objective: In this study, after reconstitution of MT by some metal io...

Extracellular polymeric substances (EPSs) were extracted by high-speed centrifugation at 20,000 G for 30 min from an activated sludge treating municipal wastewater. Each gram of sludge, as measured in volatile suspended solids (VSS), contained 7.3 mg of EPS, including 6.5 mg of protein (EPSp) and 0.8 mg of carbohydrate (EPSc). The EPSp had a mean MW of 2.0 x 105; about 18% of EPSp had MW over 5...

Taking into account spin-spin (SS), spin-other-orbit (SOO), and orbit-orbit (OO) interactions in addition to general spin-orbit (SO) interactions, the local structures of Ni2+ in CsMgX3 (X = Cl, Br, I) are theoretically investigated by using the complete diagonalization method (CDM). On this basis, it is found that the local angles, at the Ni2+ centres are larger than those, at the hosts. The c...

We examined the possible role of the Na-Ca exchange (NCX) in the arrhythmogenesis in rat atrial preparations applying microelectrode technique. In control Tyrode solution preparations isolated from the sinoatrial area contracted with frequency of 48+/-4 min(-1) (group I) or 84+/-7 min(-1) (group II). In preparation beating with low frequency partial inhibition of NCX by administration of Ni2+ (...
