The trianionic pincer supported tungsten-vinyl complex [CF3-ONO]W(O){(CH3)3CC[double bond, length as m-dash]C(CH3)2} (3syn) undergoes facile double bond rotation at ambient temperature. The degenerate methyl exchange rates were measured via selective inversion-recovery experiments. DFT computations in conjunction with experimentally determined rate constants support a double bond rotation that ...

Carbon-13 NMR analysis after chemical reduction has established the following facts with regard to the structures and formation mechanisms of some chlorine-containing polymers that are prepared by free-radical routes. Poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) contains chloromethyl, 2-chioroethyl, and 2,4-dichloro-n -butyl branches, as well as long branch structures. Tertiary halogen is present at all of the b...

Recent experimental evidence indicates that structural analogs of vinyl chloride namely, vinylidene chloride and trichloroethylene, are mutagenic. Carcinogenic response also has been observed in experimental animals following exposure to vinylidene chloride, trichloroethylene, and perchloroethylene. More recent observations demonstrate low-level vinyl chloride-induced mammary carcinoma. An addi...

Preliminary results of a long-term animal study (rats) indicate synergism between inhaled vinyl chloride and ingested ethanol in tumorigenesis.

Zirconium oxy-salts were hydrolyzed to form positively charged polymer or cluster species in acidic solutions. The zirconium hydrolyzed polymer was found to react with a negatively charged polyelectrolyte, such as poly(vinyl sulfate), and to form a stoichiometric polyion complex. Thus, colloidal titration with poly(vinyl sulfate) was applied to measure the zirconium concentration in an acidic s...

a new poly(vinylchloride) membrane sensor for cr3+ ions based on di (benzylamino)glyoxime asan ionophore was prepared. the electrode has a linear dynamic range 1×10-6-1×10-1 mol l-1,with anernstian slope of 20.3 ± 0.5 mv per decade and a detection limit of 2×10-7. it has a fast responsetime of
