Nickel-diimine complexes containing the pseudo-halide ligands isothyocyanate and isoseleniumcyanate were synthesized and used in ethylene polymerization giving branched polyethylene in high yield.

Validation methods of theoretical models show importance in the evaluation of efficiency, reliability and magnitude of errors in theoretical data calculations, allowing the selection of better methods with greater representativeness and correspondence with experimental data.

Influence of extraction process on flavonoid content from Cnidoscolus quercifolius (Euphorbiaceae) and antioxidant activity.

Reduced graphene oxide acts as an electron trapping provided by photoexited CdS in the Pt(RGO/CdS) composite. Such photogenerated electrons can be transferred to adsorbed water molecules on its surface and/or to the platinum nanoparticles that also promote the reduction of H₂O to H₂, while the photogenerated holes can oxide sulfide ions to polysulfides on CdS surface.

Photoimages of (a) NE containing lapachol at 1 mg mL^-1 (F2-Lp) and (b) unloaded F2 NE. Results from F2-Lp formulation of droplet size distribution (top right) and analytic centrifugation with LUMiSizer^® (bottom image).

Preparation of [TMEDSA][TFA]₂ and synthesis of 1,8-dioxo-9,10-diaryl-decahydroacridines catalyzed by this novel ionic liquid.

Efficient leaching of spent zinc-MnO₂ dry cells under mild experimental conditions using strong acids. Zn(II) was preferably extracted over Mn(II) by TBP or Cyanex 923.

Leaves of Saururus cernuus (Saururaceae) were extracted using BMImBr and H₂O in a MAE system. Using a bioactivity guided fractionation (cytotoxic assay) were obtained four related neolignans (1-4).

The spread of PBDEs is a subject of recent concern due to their adverse effects and persistency. Thus, it is important to assess their concentrations in different matrices in order to better understand their behavior and fate in the environment.

The figure shows generic profiles of SSCP curves for situations of inert (a), labile (b) and quasi-labile (c) complexes for Cd(II) in the presence of ligands.

Fabrication of the FDTS-modified cork membrane and separation of oil/water mixtures.

The conductivity of millimolar electrolyte solutions can be studied in undergraduate laboratory experiments by dropping electrolyte solutions in deionized water.

Experimental apparatus for determining atmospheric pressure in the laboratory.

A didactic alternative approach is proposed for deducing molecular orbital topology of acyclic and cyclic conjugated polyenes, relative energies, and orbital degeneracy to cyclic polyenes and their aromatic or antiaromatic character.

This work proposes a discussion on the construction of texts that deal with the biological properties of ruthenium complexes and their application as metallodrugs, aiming to criticize the misuse of some generalizations about the chemistry of this element.
