Copper (II) phthalocyanine and 2, 9, 16, 23 tetrakis nitro copper (II) phthalocyanine has been synthesized respectively from phthalonitrile and 4-nitro phthalonitrile under solvent-free condition using two different catalysts over nanodimensional zeolites. 4-Nitro phthalonitrile synthesized from phthaimide in three steps. The newly prepared compounds have been characterized by IR, UV-Vis,1H N...

In this work, the removal of copper from an aqueous solution by granular activated carbon (GAC) in the presence of competitor ions was studied. A batch adsorption was carried out and different parameters such as pH, contact time, initial copper concentration and competitor ions concentration were changed to determine the optimum conditions for adsorption. The optimum pH required for maximum ads...

the reaction of an equivalent of 2- mercaptoethyl ammonium chloride with an equivalent of 2,6-diformyl -4- methyl phenol produced monoamine which was reacted with half equivalent of 1,2-diamine ethane to produce ethylene-bis-6-(2-mercapto-ethyl-imine)-methyl -4- methyl phenol [h4l]. the ligand was reacted with metal ions[cr(iii), mn(ii), fe(ii), co(ii), ni(ii), cu(ii), zn(ii), cd(ii), and hg(ii...

a complex of cu(ii) with 1-(6-hydroxynaphthalen-2-yl) butane-1,3-dione (hnbd) was synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, ir, uv and dta-tg-dtg techniques.    ir spectra as well as uv-visible absorption measurements indicated that cu(ii) ion was coordinated to the hnbd ligand. the tg-dta-dtg curves showed that thermal decomposition of the anhydrous complex was a two-stage process a...

Anaerobic reactions of Rhus vernicifera laccase and its type-2 copper-depleted derivatives with hexacyanoferrate(II) were investigated by absorption and e.s.r. spectroscopy. When native laccase was treated with excess hexacyanoferrate(II), the type-1 and type-2 coppers were immediately reduced and the e.s.r. signal due to type-3 copper was transiently observed. After incubation, a novel e.s.r. ...

Copper(II) complexes 1(2+)-6 of a series of tripodal ligands involving a N3O donor set, namely 2-[(bis-pyridin-2-ylmethyl-amino)-methyl]-4-methoxy-phenol (1L), 2-tert-butyl-4-methoxy-6-[bis-pyridin-2-ylmethyl-amino)-methyl]-phenol (2L), 2-tert-butyl-4-methoxy-6-{[(2-pyridin-2-yl-ethyl)-pyridin-2-ylmethyl-amino]-methyl}-phenol (3L), 2-tert-butyl-4-methoxy-6-{[(6-methyl-pyridin-2-ylmethyl)-pyridi...

our main objective is a better understanding of spin spin interaction of dinuclear copper(ii) complexes through  system. the synthesis and characterization of two new dinuclear copper(ii) complexes, based on the use of large, pyrole-containing macrocycles, the so called “ expanded porphyrins” , [cu2(macrocycle)]4+ is described. a chloroform solution spectrum of two complexes taken at room tem...
