Treatment of chromium(II) chloride with 2 equiv of Li[tBuNC(CH3)NtBu], Li[iPrNC(CH3)NiPr], or Li[tBuNC(CH3)NEt] (prepared from the corresponding carbodiimides and methyllithium) afforded Cr[tBuNC(CH3)NtBu]2 (1, 50%), Cr[iPrNC(CH3)NiPr]2 (2, 54%), and [Cr(tBuNC(CH3)NEt)2]2 (3, 58%) as deep blue, purple, and amber or metallic green crystals, respectively. Cr[tBuNC(CH3)NtBu]2 and Cr[iPrNC(CH3)NiPr...

The new binuclear chromium Pacman complex [Cr2(L)] of the Schiff base pyrrole macrocycle H4L has been synthesized and structurally characterized. Addition of isocyanide, C≡NR (R = xylyl, tBu), or triphenylphosphine oxide donors to [Cr2(L)] gives contrasting chemistry with the formation of the new coordination compounds [Cr2(μ-CNR)(L)], in which the isocyanides bridge the two Cr(II) centers, and...

The extraction of chromium (VI) from hydrochloric, hydrobromic, and acetic acid solutions with Tri caprylamine oxide (TCAO) in benzene has been studied. The extractions from hydrochloric and hydrobromic, acid solutions are nearly quantitative and are partial from acetic acid solutions. The optimum conditions for extraction were established from the study of the effect of several variables like–...

Hydrophobicity properties of graphite and green synthesized graphene (gsG) from exfoliated graphite/GO towards polymer membrane characteristic and properties at different weight percentage concentrations (1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 wt. %) were investigated. PSf/graphite and PSf/gsG membranes were characterized in term of hydrophobicity, surface bonding, surface roughness and porosity. FTIR peaks revealed...

Complexes of metal ions with organic ligands play an important role in many fields of our life. These metal complexes are widely used in medical diagnosis and therapeutic analysis. These complexes are very familiar with radioisotopes exerting precise chemical and physical properties. Generally, chromium is considered as toxic and essential element depending on its oxidation state in the biologi...

Carcinogenic heavy metal chromium, in its hexavalent form (Cr(VI)), is spuriously used in various industrial operations because of its hardness and stability and is found in industrial effluents in concentrations much above WHO’s prescribed limit (50 mg/L). Conventional methods for removing toxic chromium ion (by chemical reduction followed by precipitation, ionexchange and adsorption on activa...

The kinetics of electron transfer between electrochemically passivated chromium and several outer-sphere redox couples have been investigated as a function of passive-film thickness, d = 5 to 25/~, in 1M H2SO4. The apparent rate of electron transfer decreased exponentially with increasing thickness of the passivating overlayer. Similarly, during potentiostatic film growth, the electron-transfer...
