A one pot catalytic system which involves Cu and an alkoxide co-catalyst has been used for methanol (MeOH) synthesis at low temperature. Up to about 92% syngas conversion per pass and more than 90% selectivity to MeOH (the ...

The catalytic mechanism of the cyclic amidohydrolase isatin hydrolase depends on a catalytically active manganese in the substrate-binding pocket. The Mn2+ ion is bound by a motif also present in other metal dependent ...

Thermal evolution of the Fe2+–Fe3+ valence mixing in YBaFe2O5 is investigated using Mössbauer spectroscopy. In this high-spin double-cell perovskite, the d6 and d5 Fe states differ by the single minority-spin electron which ...

Cyclic volatile methylsiloxanes (cVMS) are used in personal care products and emitted to aquatic environments through wastewater effluents, and their bioaccumulation potential is debated. Here, a new bentho-pelagic version ...

A PTR-QiTOF instrument was deployed in the field in the vicinity of the CO2 Technology Center Mongstad (TCM) for measuring amines in ambient air. The observed single-to-double-digit pptv levels of dimethylamine (DMA) and ...

Laboratory experiments were carried out to study Schiff-base condensation reactions between amines and formaldehyde that occur on inlet lines of emission monitoring instruments. Primary amines and formaldehyde were found ...

Oxidation state (OS) is defined using ionic approximation of bonds. Two principal algorithms are outlined for OS determination in a chemical compound described by a Lewis formula or bond graph. Typical origins of ambiguous ...

Mathematical models are investigated and suggested for the calculation of the elastic stiffness of polymer nanocomposites. Particular emphasis is placed on the effect on the elastic stiffness from agglomerates and the ...

Neurons communicate via chemical signals called neurotransmitters (NTs). The numerous identified NTs can have very different physiochemical properties (solubility, charge, size etc.), so quantification of the various NT ...

We used multiple sets of simulations both at the atomistic and coarse-grained level of resolution to investigate interaction and binding of α-tochoperol transfer protein (α-TTP) to phosphatidylinositol phosphate lipids ...

The Ruddlesden–Popper (RP3) type oxides, La4Co3O10+δ and La4Ni3O10+δ, form a complete solid solution. Powder X-ray and neutron diffraction data show that La4(Co1−xNix)3O10+δ is isostructural to the monoclinic La4Co3O10+δ ...

In the title compound, C9H9IO3, the mol­ecules are close to planar [maximum deviation from benzene ring plane = 0.229 (5) Å for the methyl carboxylate C atom] with the methyl groups oriented away from each other. In the ...

We present the first analytic implementation of cubic and quartic force constants at the level of Kohn–Sham density-functional theory. The implementation is based on an open-ended formalism for the evaluation of energy ...

Two forms, α and β, are known for the racemic amino acid DL-me­thio­nine, C5H11NO2S. The phase transition between them, taking place around 326 K, is associated with sliding at the central inter­faces of the hydro­phobic ...

A novel open tubular nanoproteomic platform featuring accelerated on-line protein digestion and high-resolution nano liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (LC-MS) has been developed. The platform features very narrow ...

Iso-octyl chain-hydroxylated oxysterols were determined in attomoles per 10,000 cells concentrations in 10,000–80,000 cultured pancreatic adenocarcinoma cells, using a sensitive, highly automated nano-LC-ESI-MS-based method. ...

Zeolites with the CHA topology have been synthesized with Si/Al ratios ranging from 15 to 133. ICP-AES analysis shows that the Si/Al ratio in the material is close to linearly related to the Si/Al ratio in the reaction ...

Magnetoresistance, electrical transport, and magnetic properties associated with a two-step Verwey-type transition in BaGdFe 2 O 5 + w (− 0.015 < w < 0.181 ) are studied as a function of temperature and oxygen nonstoichiometry ...

Two types of chemical-pressure effects on the Verwey-type transition in Ba Sm Fe 2 O 5 are studied, viz., ionic-size contractions at the Ba and Sm sites. Whereas the replacement of Sm by the smaller Eu and Gd atoms increases ...

Pressure effects on the charge-ordering (CO) transition have been investigated for an oxygen-deficient double-perovskite cobalt oxide, BaYCo 2 O 5.0 , through resistivity measurements using a piston-cylinder-type clamp ...

Electronic, magnetic, and structural phase transitions in nearly stoichiometric TbBaFe 2 O 5 + w ( 0.00 < w < 0.05 ) have been investigated. At high temperatures this compound is a paramagnetic, mixed-valence (Fe 2 . 5 + ...

The oxygen-deficient double perovskite YBaCo 2 O 5 , containing corner-linked CoO 5 square pyramids as principal building units, undergoes a paramagnetic to antiferromagnetic spin ordering at 330 K. This is accompanied ...

A mixed-valence state, formally denoted as Fe 2 . 5 + , is observed in the 300 K Mössbauer spectra of the most reduced samples of SmBaFe 2 O 5 + w . Upon cooling below the Verwey-type transition temperature (TV≈ 200 K ) ...

The nuclear and magnetic structures of ( Y 1 − x Ca x ) Ba 2 Fe 3 O 8 + δ with x=0.05, 0.10, and 0.20 have been investigated by neutron-powder diffraction at room temperature. The compound crystallizes with the symmetry ...
