Showing papers on "Organomercury Compounds published in 2008"
TL;DR: A nucleic acid detection scheme that employs DNA-mediated delivery of an organomercury activator to unmask a fluorophore is described, and complementary DNA templates yielded fluorescence signals arising from metal-assisted rhodamine uncaging.

TL;DR: In this article, the products of the reaction of 2-alkenylthiopyridines with mercury iodide have been studied by single crystal X-ray diffraction and it has been demonstrated that the products are organomercury derivatives of salts of 2,3-dihydrothiazolo[3,2-a]pyridinium.

TL;DR: In this paper, the quantum yields of photolysis of organomercury compounds in different organic solvents have been measured and shown to be almost independent of the solvent, and it was shown that the photo-lysis yields of nitro derivatives of mercury compounds and the symmetric (methylnaphtyl)mercury compound are equal to unity.
Abstract: The quantum yields of photolysis of organomercury compounds in different organic solvents have been measured. It was shown that the quantum yields of photolysis of nitro derivatives of mercury compounds and the symmetric (methylnaphtyl)mercury compound are equal to unity. The photolysis of halo derivatives of benzylmercury proceeds with lower quantum yields as compared with photolysis of analogous dibenzylmercury derivatives. The quantum yields of photolysis of organomercury compounds are almost independent of the solvent.
