Equilibria of the reaction of molybdenum(VI) with L-aspartic acid (Asp) and L- Glutamic acid(Glu) have been studied by spectrophotometric measurements in mixed solvent systems at an ionicstrength of 0.2 mol/dm3 sodium perchlorate, employed (15, 20, 25, 30± 0.1°C) at pH ranges of 3.2to 5.5 with a high ratio of ligand to metal. The stability constants of the complexes and theresulting free energy...

for the first time, dioxomolybdenum(vi) complex with the general formula [moo2l2] containing a n-o bidentate ligands (hl=2-(o-aminophenyl)- benzimidazole) has been used for the oxidation of sulfides. elemental analyses (carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen), ft-ir and uv-visble spectra and 1hnmr analysis agree well with the proposed stoicheiometry of the complex [moo2l2].  a variety of sulfides were smoo...

An amine bisphenol ligand with an ammonium iodide group in the pendant arm (H2L) reacts V, Mo and U oxometal precursors to form oxovanadium(V), dioxomolybdenum(VI) dioxouranium(VI) species, respectively. In methanol solutions, vanadium(V) molybdenum(VI) 1:1 complexes [VO(OMe)(L)]I·2MeOH [MoO2(L)(H2O)]I·2MeOH, where cationic charge is counterbalanced by anion. Uranium(VI) forms a complex which a...

Electrochemical water splitting is one of the most economical and sustainable methods for large-scale hydrogen production. However, the development of low-cost and earth-abundant non-noble-metal catalysts for the hydrogen evolution reaction remains a challenge. Here we report a two-dimensional coupled hybrid of molybdenum carbide and reduced graphene oxide with a ternary polyoxometalate-polypyr...

An innovative and eco-friendly one-pot synthesis of bio-based polyurethanes is proposed via the epoxy-ring opening of epoxidized soybean oil (ESO) with methanol, followed by the reaction of methoxy bio-polyols intermediates with 2,6-tolyl-diisocyanate (TDI). Both synthetic steps, methanolysis and polyurethane linkage formation, are promoted by a unique catalyst, molybdenum(VI) dichloride dioxid...
