The increasing use of contrast agents in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for medical diagnosis is due to the ability, called relaxivity, of these paramagnetic compounds to accelerate the relaxation of the surrounding water proton spins. A new classical fo ...
Line-narrowing multiple pulse techniques are applied to a spherical sample crystal of biphenyl. The 10 different proton shielding tensors in this compd. are detd. The accuracy level for the tensor components is 0.3 ppm. The assignment of the measured tenso ...
In analogy to the authors' successful PX2+ insertion reactions, an AsX2+ insertion route was explored to obtain new arsenic halogen cations. Two new salts were prepd.: AsBr4+[Al(OR)4]-, starting from AsBr3, Br2 and Ag[Al(OR)4], and I2As-PI3+[Al(OR)]4 from ...
Chromatography is increasingly being used for large-scale preparative separation of precious biological components such as recombinant proteins and DNA. Several kinds of mathematical models are used to describe the liquid chromatography process. The aim of ...
During the prepn. of AsBr4+[Al(OR)4]-, the novel carbocation CS2Br3+ was synthesized by reaction of AsBr3, Br2, CS2, and Ag[Al(OR)4] (R=C(CF3)3). CS2Br3+ [Al(OR)4]- was characterized by its crystal structure, NMR and IR spectroscopy, and quantum chem. calc ...
The hydrogenation of benzene and other arenes under aqueous-organic biphasic conditions is evaluated using the ruthenium complexes Ru(eta(6)-C10H14)(pta)Cl-2 (pta=1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphaadamantane), Ru(eta(6)-C10H14)(tppts)Cl-2 (tppts=tris-3-sulfonatophenyl ...
Two-phase liquid system IA(w)jIX(o) comprising the interface between the aqueous solution (w) of uni-univalent electrolyte IA and an organic solvent solution (o) of a uni-univalent electrolyte IX with the common cation I+ is considered as a simple model of ...
[Ag(P4)2][Al((F3C)CO2)4], with the tetrahedral P4 mol. as ligand, was prepd. and its crystal structure and Raman spectra detd. The Ag coordination is nearly planar and the calcd. mol. orbitals of the cation indicate the electronic basis for this geometry. ...
Previous measurements of SixHm- anions and electrons in the afterglow of silane discharges are analyzed here. A model of plasma anion chemistry includes two sources of anions, two possible causes of x-->x+1 anion growth, and anion loss by mutual neutraliza ...
