A series of novel bis(carboxylato)oxalatobis(1-propylamine)platinum(IV) complexes as well as an ethylamine analog were synthesized. The compounds are either symmetrical with both axial ligands consisting of monoesters of succinic acid, or unsymmetrical, with one axial ligand being acetate. The c...

Unlike the complex reaction of grafting amino groups using harmful organic solvents, we proposed an environmental friendly method for effective amino grafting on titanate nanotubes (TNTs) with 2-Bromoethylamine hydrobromide (2-Bh) through a two-step SN2 reaction in pure water solution. The amino...

In this work, the influences of redox electrolyte, additives and solvents on the photovoltaic performance of dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) containing 1-methyl-3-propyl-imidazolinium iodide (MPII) as the electrolyte were investigated. An optimum conductivity of 20.31 mS cm−1 for 0.6 M MPII i...

Propyl gallate (propyl 3,4,5-trihydroxybenzoate, PG) is a phenolic antioxidant that has been used for oil-containing foods to prevent acidification. Owing to its antioxidant properties, PG has been applied to various fields and active research is currently underway to prove PG as an anticancer a...

The far infrared spectrum (350-50 cm−1) of gaseous 2-chloroethanol, ClCH2CH2OH, was recorded at a resolution of 0.10 cm−1. The OH torsional fundamental of the most stable gauche conformer, Gg', where the capital G refers to internal rotation around the CC bond and the lower case g to in...

Oxidation of 2-chloroethanol by H2O2 under UV irradiation has been studied. Analysis of reactants and products was performed by gas and ion chromatography.

The ultrasonic velocity (u) and density (ρ) of binary liquid mixtures of formamide (FA) and N-methylformamide (NMF) with 2-chloroethanol (2-CletOH) have been measured at temperatures 298.15, 308.15 and 318.15 K, over the entire composition range. From the experimental values of ultrasonic veloc...

Densities of binary mixtures of 2-chloroethanol with N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) and water have been measured over the full range of compositions at various temperatures. From these results, excess molar volumes, VE and excess partial molar volumes at infinite dilution, V¯iE,0 have been calcula...

Cardiovascular effects have often been found in 2-chloroethanol (2-CE) intoxicated patients, but the 2-CE elicits cardiovascular toxicity mechanism is not clear. Recently, we have found that chloroacetaldehyde (CAA) accumulation in 2-CE-intoxicated rat’s blood and play an important role in 2-CE...

The aim of this study was to explore the mechanisms that contribute to 1,2-dichloroethane (1,2-DCE) induced brain edema by focusing on alteration of mitochondrial function and glutamate metabolism in primary cultured astrocytes induced by 2-chloroethanol (2-CE), a metabolite of 1,2-DCE in vivo. ...

The acoustic non-linearity parameter (B/A) for binary mixtures of 2-chloroethanol with 2-dimethylethanolamine (2-DMAE) and 2-diethylethanolamine (2-DEAE) are evaluated using Tong Dong, Beyer and Beyer-Tong Dong coefficients at varying concentrations and temperatures ranging from 293.15 to 313.15...

The trioctylamine (TOA) with kerosene as a diluent was used to separate 2-chloroethanol from aqueous hydrochloride acid solution. The stoichiometry of complex data was studied with infrared spectroscopic and the result shows that the ratio of 2-chloroethanol to amine in the complex was 1:2. The ...

Composite NiO/Al2O3 was prepared by calcination of Ni/Al hydrotalcite for gas sensing materials. Methods of XRD, SEM, TEM, EDS and BET were used to analyze the structure, composition and morphology of the composite oxide. It was found that the sample was composed of crystal NiO and amorphous Al2...
