Luminescent Ruthenium Tripod Complexes: Properties in Solution and on Conductive Surfaces

TL;DR: Two luminescent ruthenium complexes containing tripod-type end groups linked through a rigid spacer to a phenanthroline derivative, able to confer an axial geometry to the complexes, are described.
Journal ArticleDOI

The mechanism of formation of Grignard reagents: trapping of free alkyl radical intermediates by reaction with tetramethylpiperidine-N-oxyl

TL;DR: In the presence du piegeur de radicaux du titre, le bromure de cycloheptyle reagit avec le magnesium pour former la (cyclohepticoxy-1 tetramethyl-2,2,6,6) piperidine comme produit principal as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

cis-[Bis(dicyclohexylphosphino)ethane]platinum(0) reacts with unactivated carbon-hydrogen bonds

TL;DR: In particular, no phosphine-stabilized platinum species has been reported that reacts intermolecularly with unactivated C-H bonds, although intramolecular reaction is facile as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Glycerol kinase: substrate specificity

TL;DR: These studies indicate that glycerol kinase accepts a range of substituents in place of one terminal hydroxyl group (that which is not phosphorylated), and that the hydrogen atcm atC-2 can be replaced by a methyl group.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tilted Magnetic Levitation Enables Measurement of the Complete Range of Densities of Materials with Low Magnetic Permeability

TL;DR: This paper explores a simple method-"tilted MagLev"-to increase the range of densities that can be levitated magnetically, by Tilting the MagLev device relative to the gravitational vector, which enables the magnetic force to be decreased along the axis of measurement.
