The conformational transitions of the alternating maleic acid copolymers with styrene (MA-St)n, and alpha-methyl styrene (MA-MSt)(n) in aqueous solutions were studied by means of various methods. The following results were obtained: 1) The conformational transitions of (MA-St)n from the compact to extended coil form are observed in various salt solutions, as in aqueous NaCl, and the compact form is stabilized by Rb+ and Cs+, but destabilized by Li+. The coions, Br-, I-, ClO4- and SCN- affect scarcely the stability of the compact form. 2) The temperature coefficient of viscosity d In [eta]/dT of (MA-St)n in 0.09 M NaCl was positive for the compact form, but negative for the coil form, and it reflects the transition. 3) The difference between specific heats for the compact and coil forms of (MA-St)n in 0.03 M NaCl is determined to be about 15% of the corresponding heat of transfer of benzene to aqueous medium. 4) A remarkable dilution of the bound monomeric acridine orange to the compact form (MA-St)n is observed and the dimerization free energy of the dye in the compact form is about -2.1 kcal mole at 25 degrees C. 5) Potentiometric, dilatometric and viscometric titrations of (MA-MSt)n in aqueous NaCl at 25 degrees C show a similar conformational transition to that of (MA-St)n. Also, the difference in the molar extinction coefficient at 261 nm indicates the transition. The compact form of (MA-MSt)n is more unstable than that of (MA-St)n. From the results, the compact conformations and the transition mechanism of both the polyacids were discussed in comparison with the results for the maleic acid copolymers with n-alkyl vinyl ethers.

A method is described for the direct spectrophotometric determination of micro-amounts of niobium by extraction into a benzene solution of dibenzo-18-crown-6 (L) from 3M hydrochloric acid containing potassium thiocyanate. The molar absorptivity of the extracted complex is 3.85 +/- 0.03 x 10(4) 1.mole(-1).cm(-1) (relative standard deviation 0.8%). Co-ordinatively unsaturated complexes of the type [NbO(SCN)(3)](2)L and NbO(SCN)(3)L are extracted, along with ion-pairs, especially when small amounts of L are used for extraction. The ion-pair complex [NbOCl(2)(SCN)(3)][(LK)(2)] seems to be the main species formed in the organic phase.

Conditions for the formation and extraction of the thiocyanate complex of ruthenium are reported. Distribution coefficients of more than 10(4) and a capacity of about 0.24 mole per kg of foam were obtained. The effect of the chloride salts of various univalent cations on the extraction of Ru(SCN)(6)(3-) indicated that the efficiency of ruthenium extraction depends on how well the cation fits into the polyether segment of the polyurethane foam, which agrees with the "cation-chelation" mechanism. The separation of ruthenium and rhodium indicated that more than 95% of the rhodium remained in the aqueous phase and about 95% of the ruthenium was retained by the polyurethane foam and could be easily recovered.

Various metal thiocyanate complexes in aqueous solution were sorbed on solid cellulose acetate polymers. The sorption selectivity increased in the order Zn(2+) >> Fe(3+) >> Cu(2+) >> Co(2+) >> Ni(2+). The sorption behaviour followed a Langmuir-type adsorption isotherm, and the maximum adsorption capacity was 6.1 x 10(-5) mole of complex per g of polymer under optimum conditions. The zinc species sorbed appear to be NH(4)Zn(H(2)O)(SCN)(3) or (NH(4))(2)Zn(SCN)(4) according to analysis of the sorption equilibrium. The ion-association species formed by the complex zinc anion and the ammonium ion was supposed to be sorbed (or "extracted") onto the polymer matrix. As an application of sorption of metal complexes, a new hyperfiltration process was proposed for selective separation of metal ions. Thus, a mixture of metal thiocyanate complexes was hyperfiltered through cellulose acetate membranes. Permeation of certain metal complexes was preferred, and the selectivity was found to be similar to the sorption selectivity. These findings lead to a generalized idea that hyperfiltration separation of ionic species, particularly anionic metal complexes, can be attained by using polymer membranes which selectively adsorb or extract such ionic species as ion-association complexes onto the polymer matrix.

A method is described for the determination of chloride in PtAl(2)O(3)/SiO(2) catalysts, based on its extraction with alkali followed by reaction with Hg(SCN)(2)Fe(3+) reagent and spectrophotometric measurement at 460 nm. Beer's law is obeyed in the concentration range 5-75 mug of chloride in 25 ml of aqueous solution. The molar absorptivity is 1.99 x 10(3) l.mole(-1).cm(-1). The rapid colour development, excellent reproducibility and absence of interference from the species most often present in the catalysts are the advantages of the method.

(Solid + liquid) phase equilibria (SLE) for the binary systems, ionic liquid (IL) 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium thiocyanate [BMIM][SCN] with an alcohol (1-octanol, 1-nonanol, 1-decanol, 1-undecanol, or 1-dodecanol) or water, and (liquid + liquid) phase equilibria (LLE) for the binary systems of [BMIM][SCN] with an alkane (n-hexane, n-heptane, n-octane, n-nonane, or n-decane), benzene, an alkylbenzenes (toluene or ethylbenzene), tetrahydrofuran (THF), cycloalkanes (cyclohexane or cycloheptane), or ethers (di-n-propyl ether, di-n-butyl ether, di-n-pentyl ether, n-butylmethyl ether, tert-butylmethyl ether (MTBE), or tert-butylethyl ether (ETBE)) have been determined at ambient pressure. A dynamic method was used over a broad range of mole fractions and temperatures from 250 to 430 K. In the case of systems IL + alkane, cycloalkane, or ether, the mutual immiscibility with an upper critical solution temperature (UCST) was detected, and in the systems of IL + benzene, alkylbenzene, or THF, the mutual immiscibility with a lower critical solution temperature (LCST) was observed. UV-vis spectroscopy was used to determine the very small compositions of the IL in the n-hexane (about 2 x 10(-5) IL mole fraction), benzene (about 2 x 10(-3) IL mole fraction), cyclohexane (about 2 x 10(-5) IL mole fraction), and THF (about 1.2 x 10(-2) IL mole fraction). For the binary systems containing alcohol, it was noticed that with increasing chain length of an alcohol, the solubility decreases. The basic thermal properties of the pure IL, that is, the glass-transition temperature as well as the heat capacity at the glass-transition temperature, have been measured using a differential scanning microcalorimetry technique (DSC). Decomposition of the IL was detected by the simultaneous TG/DTA experiments. Well-known UNIQUAC, Wilson, and NRTL equations have been used to correlate the experimental SLE data sets for alcohols and water. For the systems containing immiscibility gaps {IL + alkane, benzene, alkylbenzene, cycloalkane, tetrahydrofuran, or ether}, the parameters of the LLE correlation have been derived using the NRTL equation.

It has been shown that the voltage (V(m)) dependence of ClC Cl(-) channels is conferred by interaction of the protopore gate with H(+) ions. However, in this paper we present evidence which indicates that permeant Cl(-) ions contribute to V(m)-dependent gating of the broadly distributed ClC-2 Cl() channel. The apparent open probability (P(A)) of ClC-2 was enhanced either by changing the [Cl(-)](i) from 10 to 200 mM or by keeping the [Cl(-)](i) low (10 mM) and then raising [Cl(-)](o) from 10 to 140 mM. Additionally, these changes in [Cl(-)] slowed down channel closing at positive V(m) suggesting that high [Cl(-)] increased pore occupancy thus hindering closing of the protopore gate. The identity of the permeant anion was also important since the P(A)(V(m)) curves were nearly identical with Cl(-) or Br(-) but shifted to negative voltages in the presence of SCN() ions. In addition, gating, closing rate and reversal potential displayed anomalous mole fraction behaviour in a SCN(-)/Cl() mixture in agreement with the idea that pore occupancy by different permeant anions modifies the V(m) dependence ClC-2 gating. Based on the ec1-ClC anion pathway, we hypothesized that opening of the protopore gate is facilitated when Cl(-) ions dwell in the central binding site. In contrast, when Cl(-) ions dwell in the external binding site they prevent the gate from closing. Finally, this Cl(-)-dependent gating in ClC-2 channels is of physiological relevance since an increase in [Cl(-)](o) enhances channel opening when the [Cl(-)](i) is in the physiological range.

Two new aluminate compounds was prepared by the reaction of AlCl(3) with KX (X=SCN(-), CN(-)) in a 1:1 mole ratio. In these salts the aluminum atom is surrounded by three chlorine atoms and a ligand (X=SCN(-), CN(-)). In AlCl(3)SCN anion, the SCN coordinates to the Al through sulfur and AlCl(3)CN anion the CN(-) coordinates to the Al center through carbon. The molecular geometry, vibrational frequencies, energies and natural bond orbital (NBO) in the ground state are calculated by using the DFT (B3LYP) methods with 6-311G* basis sets. The geometries and normal modes of vibrations obtained from B3LYP calculations are in good agreement with the experimentally observed data.

Liquid-liquid phase equilibria (LLE) of binary mixtures containing a room-temperature ionic liquid N-hexylisoquinolinium thiocyanate, [HiQuin][SCN] with an aliphatic hydrocarbon (n-hexane, n-heptane), aromatic hydrocarbon (benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, n-propylbenzene), cyclohexane, thiophene, water, and 1-alcohol (1-ethanol, 1-butanol, 1-hexanol, 1-octanol, 1-decanol) have been determined using a dynamic method from room temperature to the boiling-point of the solvent at ambient pressure. N-hexylisoquinolinium thiocyanate, [HiQuin][SCN] has been synthesized from N-hexyl-isoquinolinium bromide as a substrate. Specific basic characterization of the new compound including NMR spectra, elementary analysis, and water content have been done. The density and viscosity of pure ionic liquid were determined over a wide temperature range from 298.15 to 348.15 K. The mutual immiscibility with an upper critical solution temperature (UCST) for the binary systems {IL + aliphatic hydrocarbon, cyclohexane, or water} was detected. In the systems of {IL + aromatic hydrocarbon or thiophene} an immiscibility gap with a lower critical solution temperature (LCST) was observed. Complete miscibility in the liquid phase, over a whole range of ionic liquid mole fraction, was observed for the binary mixtures containing IL and an 1-alcohol. For the tested binary systems with immiscibility gap {IL + aliphatic hydrocarbon, aromatic hydrocarbon, cyclohexane, thiophene, or water}, the parameters of the LLE correlation have been derived using the NRTL equation. The basic thermal properties of the pure IL, that is, the glass-transition temperature as well as the heat capacity at the glass-transition temperature, have been measured using a differential scanning microcalorimetry technique (DSC). Decomposition of the IL was detected by simultaneous thermogravimetric/differential thermal analysis (TG/DTA) experiments.
