  1. 1. Copper(II) Azido Complexes: Synthesis, X-ray structures, thermal and magnetic properties

    Author : Al-Shimaà A A Massoud; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Cu II complexes; bridging µ1; quinoxaline; 2; pyrazinetetrazolate; quinolinecarboxylate; 1–N3; 5-dimethylpyrazine; ferromagnetic interactions;

    Abstract : This thesis focuses on the synthesis and X-ray structure analysis of seven copper(II) and one cobalt(II) azido coordination polymer with quinoline and pyrazine derivatives as bridging co-ligands. The synthesis of these complexes were done by direct mixing of the metal salt (Cu(NO3)2 and CoCl2) and the organic ligand (pyrazinecarbonitrile, quinoxaline, quinoline-4-carboxylic acid and 2,5-dimethylpyrazine) solutions followed by the dropwise addition of aqueous sodium azide (NaN3) with continuous stirring.

  2. 2. Theoretical studies of blue copper proteins

    Author : Mats H M Olsson; Beräkningskemi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; quantum chemistry; metal-thiolate bonds; axial ligation; electron transfer proteins; reduction potential; reorganisation energy; Cu II ; Cu I ; strain; Induced-rack theory; Entatic state theory; cytochrome c oxidase; CuA; nitrite reductase; azurin; Blue copper proteins; plastocyanin; B3LYP; CASPT2; Soil Science; agricultural hydrology; Lantbrukshydrologi; marklära;

    Abstract : In this thesis, a critical investigation is presented about the role of mechanical strain for the electron-transfer properties of the blue copper proteins. It has been found that the structure of a realistic model complex of the oxidised blue-copper active site, optimised in vacuum with the B3LYP method, has the same trigonal cupric geometry as in the protein.

  3. 3. On the reaction mechanism for selective catalytic reduction of NOx by NH3 over Cu-zeolites

    Author : Lin Chen; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; DFT; O2-activation; Cu-SSZ-13; NH3-SCR; Cu-CHA; Al-distribution;

    Abstract : Nitrogen oxides (NOx) are major pollutants from combustion processes, being corrosive and hazardous to human health. The main technology for exhaust aftertreatment of NOx emitted from diesel engines is selective catalytic reduction with ammonia as reducing agent (NH3-SCR). READ MORE

  4. 4. 31 P- and 65 Cu- solid state NMR studies of Cu(I) di-alkyl-dithiophosphates : complex Formation Mechanism on Synthetic Chalcocite Surfaces

    Author : Daniela Rusanova; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Chemistry of Interfaces; Gränsytors kemi;

    Abstract : Alkyl substituted derivatives of dithiophosphoric acid are frequently used as collectors in froth flotation enrichment of copper sulfide ores. Due to interaction between Cu atoms at the surface and thiol collector molecules, a concomitant adsorption process occurs on the mineral surface. READ MORE

  5. 5. Modelling precipitation and surface complexation reactions in systems with Goethite, Cu(II) and Oxyanions Containing As(V) or P(V)

    Author : Hanna Nelson; Lars Lövgren; Staffan Sjöberg; Per Persson; M. Clara F. Magalhaes; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : The aqueous solubility of oxyanion (e.g. phosphates and arsenates), and thereby their mobility, bioavailability (phosphates) and toxicity (arsenates), in soils and sediments is dependent upon their chemical speciation. In complex, multicomponent systems, equilibrium modelling can be a useful tool to predict chemical speciation. READ MORE
