A novel energy-saving hydrometallurgical recovery process for copper from electronic scrap employing the Cu(I)-ammine complex has been presented on the basis of a thermodynamic consideration. In order to experimentally explore the feasibility of the leaching stage in this process, the copper leaching behavior from a printed circuit board (PCB) in ammoniacal alkaline solutions has been investiga...

The aqueous-based Zn-ammine complex solutions represent one of the most promising routes to obtain the ZnO electron transport layer (ETL) at a low temperature in inverted organic solar cells (OSCs). However, to dope the ZnO film processed from the Zn-ammine complex solutions is difficult since the introduction of metal ions into the Zn-ammine complex is a nontrivial process as ammonium hydroxid...

Bis[triamminesilver(I)] bis-[diamminesilver(I)] hexa-fluorido-stannate(IV) difluoride, [Ag(NH3)3]2[Ag(NH3)2]2[SnF6]F2, was obtained in the form of colourless crystals from the reaction of CsAgSnF7 in anhydrous ammonia. Two different ammine complexes of silver(I) are present in the structure, i.e. a linear diammine and a T-shaped triammine complex. The ammine silver(I) complexes show Ag⋯Ag dista...

The extraction and separation of copper(II), zinc(II), cobalt(II), and cadmium(II) were investigated. Both copper(II) and zinc(II) formed ammine-complexes, while cadmium(II) and cobalt(II) formed hydroxide precipitates in an ammonia medium. By the addition of sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS), a copper(II) complex formed an ion-pair (copper-ammine-DS), which was extracted into the SDS phase. However,...

Ammonium (NH4+), ammonia (NH3) and N2 are key nitrogen species in geological recycling. NH3 has also been proposed to play an important role mobilizing base metals the form of metal-ammine complexes hydrothermal fluids. The isotope fractionation factors among these aqueous gaseous phases essential parameters trace source signatures geochemical properties processes. However, for largely absent, ...

Stimulated by the report of high-yield, low-temperature catalytic conversion of methane to methyl bisulfate (Periana et al., Science 1998, 280, 560), we studied the relative stability and reaction mechanism of the Pt(NH3)2Cl2 and Pt(bpym)Cl2 complexes in concentrated sulfuric acid. We find that the mechanism involves a series of steps beginning with C-H activation to form an intermediate ion-pa...

Abstract Pabellón de Pica, Tarapaca, Chile, is a former guano mine exploited in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Guano direct contact with Cu sulfide mineralization leading to formation of minerals highly unusual chemical composition, especially Cu‐organic complexes nitrogen‐bearing phases. In this work, we report results Raman spectroscopic investigation several unique Cu‐bearing that a...

in this paper, the mer-co(nh3)3(no2)3 complex was used as a new precursor for synthesizing spinel-type cobalt oxide nanoparticles (co3o4nps).thermal decomposition of the complex at low temperature (175 °c) resulted in the co3o4nps without using expensive and toxic solvents or complicated equipment. xrd, ft-ir, sem, edx, and tem were employed to characterize the product, and its optical and magn...

A new ammine complex, Li2B12H12$7NH3, that can reversibly release all the NH3 at below 200oC and reabsorb NH3 at room temperature and 0.5 bar was synthesized and investigated for reversible ammonia storage or indirect hydrogen storage.

The cis- and trans-dichloro- and diiodo-platinum(II) complexes containing two acetonimines (cis- and trans-[PtX(2){HN=C(CH(3))(2)}(2)], 1 and 2 for X = Cl and 1' and 2' for X = I, respectively) or one acetonimine and one ammine (cis- and trans-[PtX(2)(NH(3)){HN=C(CH(3))(2)}], 3 and 4 for X = Cl and 3' and 4' for X = I, respectively) have been prepared from platinum-ammine precursors by condensa...
