The electrochemical oxidation of acidic solutions of phenol on a Ti/IrO2 anode has been investigated by cyclic voltammetry and bulk electrolysis in a single-compartment cell. In the potential region of oxygen evolution, anodic oxidation resulted in electro ...
Diluted magnetic semiconductors (DMS), semiconductors in which a fraction of non-magnetic sites have been replaced with their magnetic counterparts, have been in the limelight of the scientific community since the turn of the 21st century. The interest in ...
A new copper selenite chloride Cu-5(SeO3)(4)Cl-2 has been prepared by chemical vapor transport reactions. Its crystal structure was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The title compound crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2(1)/c with t ...
Density functional approximations fail to provide a consistent description of weak molecular interactions arising from small electron density overlaps. A simple remedy to correct for the missing interactions is to add a posteriori an attractive energy term ...
The reaction mechanism on the formation of the hydrosulfido complex [Re(SH)(CO)(3)(bipy)] via the reaction of [Re(OH)(CO)(3)(bipy)] with carbon disulfide was theoretically investigated at the B3LYP/6-31+G(d, p) (LANL2DZ+f for Re) level of theory taking int ...
Electrochemical oxidation of ammonia (NH3 and NH4+) on boron-doped diamond (BDD) electrode was studied using differential electrochemical mass-spectrometry (DEMS) and chronoamperometry. Electro-oxidation of ammonia induces inhibition of the oxygen evolutio ...
Synchrotron X-ray diffraction (XRD) measurements of Pb-Ti-O fine acicular crystals (nanowires) of the so-called PX-phase have been performed. The theta-2 theta patterns of the nanowires dispersed on substrates with two different geometries indicated that t ...
A series of 10 different mesomorphic semidendrimeric tridentate ligands L5-L14 grafted with terminal cyanobiphenyl groups have been synthesized. Upon reaction with Ln(NO3)(3) (Ln = trivalent lanthanide), the central 2,6-bis(N-ethylbenzimidazol-2-yl)pyridin ...
We report on the acid ethylenedithiotetrathiafulvaleneamidoglycine (EDT-TTF-CO-NH-CH2-CO2H; 1; EDT-TTF=ethylenedithiotetrathiafulvalene) and the 1:1 adduct [(EDT-TTF)(center dot+) -CO-NH-CH2-(CO2H)(-)][(EDT-TTF)-CO-NH-CH2-(CO2H)]center dot CH3OH (2), a new ...
A novel approach based on the Stober method allows breaking of the symmetry of core-shell systems based on metallic core and metal oxide shell. By adjusting the proportion of the TiO2 precursor with regard to the silica precursor, different morphologies of ...
