Pure solutions of [ Rh (H2O)6]3+, dimer [Rh2(μ-OH)2(H2O)8]4+ and trimer [Rh3(μ-OH)4(H2O)10]5+ have been converted into their respective 'active' hydroxides by dropwise addition to an imidazole solution. These 'active' hydroxides have been analysed by a variety of techniques including rhodium determination, infrared spectroscopy, thermal analysis and powder X-ray diffraction. Purity determinations using ion-exchange chromatography showed that the three hydroxides consist primarily of the neutral forms of the starting aqua ion (>96%) with small amounts of species with higher nuclearity. Rhodium analysis and thermogravimetric measurements confirmed the composition of these hydroxides to be Rh (OH)3(H2O)3.H2O, Rh2(μ-OH)2(OH)4(H2O)4 and Rh3(μ-OH)4(OH)5(H2O)5.5H2O. A scheme for the thermal decomposition of each of the hydroxides has been proposed on the basis of the t.g . and d.t.a . data and the knowledge that the final product in each case is α-Rh2O3. Heating of the hydroxides in air resulted in oxidation of RhIII to RhIV (temperature 250-300°C) forming RhO2 which on further heating decomposed to α-Rh2O3 and dioxygen.

By electrochemical oxidation of [B6H6]2- in the presence of nitrite ions and the base DBU in dichloromethane solution mononitropentahydrohexaborate [B6H5(NO2)]2- ions are formed and can be isolated by ion exchange chromatography on diethylaminoethyl cellulose. The crystal structures of the K and Cs salt were determined from single crystal X-ray diffraction analyses. K2[B6H5(NO2)] is monoclinic, space group P21/m with a = 5.953(1), b = 8.059(4), c = 8.906(1) Å, β = 109.553(9)°; Cs2[B6H5(NO2)] is monoclinic, space group P21/a with a = 9.438(6), b = 9.644(7), c = 11.138(9) Å, β = 101.44(9)°. The B6 octahedron is compressed in the direction of the B—NO2 bond by about 5%, with bond lengths between 1.67 and 1.77 A.

By electrochemical oxidation of [B6H6]2- in the presence of nitrite ions and of the base DBU in dichlorom ethane solution the μ-nitroso-bis(pentahydrohexaborate) [B6H5(NO)B6H5]3- ion is formed and can be isolated by ion exchange chromatography on diethylaminoethyl cellulose. The crystal structure of the Cs salt has been determined from single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Cs3[B6H5(NO)B6H5] is orthorhombic, space group Pnma with a = 16.2303(13), b = 12.245(6), c = 25.444(2) Å. The unit cell contains three crystallographically independent anions with nearly C2v symmetry but differently distorted B6 cages

By electrochemical oxidation of [B6H6,]2 in the presence of nitrite ions and of the base DBU in dichloromethane solution apart from [B6H5 (NO2)]2- and [B6H5(NO)B 6H5]3- the dinitro anion cis-[B6H4( NO2)2]2- is formed and can be isolated by ion exchange chromatography on diethylaminoethyl cellulose. The crystal structure of the Cs salt has been determined from single crystal X-ray diffraction analyses. cis-Cs2[B6H4 ( NO2)2] is tetragonal, space group P4̄21 m with a = 10.0656(4), c = 11.0127(13) Å. The 11B NMR spectrum is consistent with a disubstituted octahedral B6 cage with local C2v symmetry. The IR and Raman spectra exhibit characteristic NO2, B - H and B6 vibrations.

A novel yttrium(III) complex with glycine has been synthesized starting from tris(ethanedioato-O,O)yttrium(III) by the substitution of the acetylacetonato chelate ligands with glycine. The reaction product was purified by ion-exchange chromatography and characterized on the basis of infrared spectroscopy. The structure of the productwas tentatively established as tris(glycinato-N,O)yttrium(III) dihydrate.

The feed grade monocalcium phosphate monohydrate, Ca(H2PO4)2·H2O was prepared by the reaction of CaCO3 and H3PO4 at elevated temperature in aqueous solution. The obtained precipitates were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction, infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and thermal analysis (TG, DTA) techniques. The chemical composition of final products was evaluated by analysing the phosphorus and calcium content in the samples.

Soluble extracts of the cyanobacterium Anabaena variabilis ATCC 29413 and an engineered mutant that lacks an intracellular protease cleaving after Lys and Arg (Maldener, Lockau, Cai, and Wolk, Mol. Gen. Genet. 225, 113-120 (1991)) were separated by ion exchange chromatography, and protease profiles determined using azocasein, Nα-benzoyl-ᴅ,ʟ arginine- 4-nitroanilide and N-carbobenzoxy-glycyl-ʟ-proline-4-nitroanilide as substrates. A second enzyme cleaving at the carboxyl side of lysine and arginine, and a prolyl endopeptidase were detected, enriched and characterized. Both proteolytic enzymes appear to be located in the periplasm.

ABSTRACT Formation of the feldspathoid sodalite (Na6Al6Si6O24·2NaCl) by reaction of nepheline (NaAlSiO4) with NaCl-bearing brines was investigated at 3 and 6 kbar and at a constant temperature of 750 °C to determine the brine concentration at which sodalite forms with variation in pressure. The reaction boundary was located by reaction-reversal experiments in the system NaAlSiO4–NaCl–H2O at a brine concentration of 0.16 ± 0.08 XNaCl [= molar ratio NaCl/(NaCl + H2O)] at 3 kbar and at a brine concentration of 0.35 ± 0.03 XNaCl at 6 kbar. Characterization of the sodalite using both X-ray diffraction and infrared spectroscopy after treatment in these brines indicated no obvious evidence of water or hydroxyl incorporation into the cage structure of sodalite. The data from this study were combined with earlier results by Wellman (1970) and Sharp et al. (1989) at lower (1–1.5 kbar) and higher (7–8 kbar) pressures, respectively, on sodalite formation from nepheline and NaCl which models as a concave-down curve in XNaCl – P space. In general, sodalite buffers the concentration of neutral aqueous NaCl° in the brine to relatively low values at P < 4 kbar, but NaCl° increases rapidly at higher pressures. Thermochemical modeling of these data was done to determine the activity of the aqueous NaCl° relative to a 1 molal (m) standard state, demonstrating very low activities (<0.2 m, or 1.2 wt.%) of NaCl° at 3 kbar and lower, but rising to relatively high activities (>20 m, or 54 wt.%) of NaCl° at 6 kbar or higher. The results from this study place constraints on the concentration of NaCl° in brines coexisting with nepheline and sodalite and, because of the relative insensitivity of this reaction to temperature, can provide a convenient geobarometer for those localities where the fluid compositions that formed nepheline and sodalite can be determined independently.
