Development of a new compound based on low-density polyethylene degraded with zeolite waste for the removal of diesel from water.

A new adsorbent composite has been developed based on low-density polyethylene and zeolite. This material was used to remove diesel as pollutant in an aqueous system. In the synthesis of the composite and diesel removal were combined these effects: capacity of the zeolite to degrade polyethylene, partial filling of the zeolite with the polyethylene degradation products, favorable thermodynamic interactions between composite-diesel and porosity of the composite (imbibition effect).

Synthesis and Characterization of a Lignin-Styrene-Butyl Acrylate Based Composite.

In recent years, the pursuit of new polymer materials based on renewable raw materials has been intensified with the aim of reusing waste materials in sustainable processes. The synthesis of a lignin, styrene, and butyl acrylate based composite was carried out by a mass polymerization process. A series of four composites were prepared by varying the amount of lignin in 5, 10, 15, and 20 wt.

Metal complexes containing natural and and artificial radioactive elements and their applications.

Recent advances (during the 2007-2014 period) in the coordination and organometallic chemistry of compounds containing natural and artificially prepared radionuclides (actinides and technetium), are reviewed. Radioactive isotopes of naturally stable elements are not included for discussion in this work. Actinide and technetium complexes with O-, N-, N,O, N,S-, P-containing ligands, as well π-organometallics are discussed from the view point of their synthesis, properties, and main applications.

N,N'-Bis(2-amino-benz-yl)ethane-1,2-diaminium dinitrate.

In the title salt, C16H24N4 (2+)·2NO3 (-), both the cation and anion are placed in general positions, although the cation displays non-crystallographic inversion symmetry, with the aliphatic chain extended in an all-trans conformation. The benzene rings are almost parallel, with a dihedral angle between their mean planes of 3.3 (6)°.

Tris[2-(2H-indazol-2-yl)eth-yl]amine.

The title tertiary amine, C(27)H(27)N(7), a potential tripodal ligand for coordination chemistry, crystallizes with the central N atom located on a threefold axis of a trigonal cell. The gauche conformation of the N(amime)-CH(2)-CH(2)-N(indazole) chain [torsion angle = -64.2 (2)°] places the pendant 2H-indazole heterocycles surrounding the symmetry axis, affording a claw-like shaped mol-ecule.

N,N'-Bis(2-aza-niumylbenz-yl)ethane-1,2-diaminium tetra-chloride.

The title compound, C(16)H(26)N(4) (4+)·4Cl(-), is based on a fully protonated tetra-amine. In the cation, both benzene rings are connected by an all-trans chain, and the rings are almost parallel, with an angle between the mean planes of 8.34 (12)°.

N,N'-Bis(2-amino-benz-yl)ethane-1,2-diaminium bis-(4-methyl-benzene-sulfonate).

The title salt, C(16)H(24)N(4) (2+)·2C(7)H(7)O(3)S(-), crystallizes with the dication situated on an inversion center and the anion in a general position. The cation contains two ammonium and two free amine groups, and the observed conformation for the chain linking the benzene rings is different from that found in the free tetra-amine and in the fully protonated tetra-amine. All amine and ammonium H atoms of the cation form hydrogen bonds with eight symmetry-related anions, using the sulfonate O atoms as acceptors.

2,2'-(Propane-1,3-di-yl)bis-(2H-indazole).

The title mol-ecule, C(17)H(16)N(4), is a bis-indazole crystallized in the rare 2H-tautomeric form. Indazole heterocycles are connected by a propane C(3) chain, and the mol-ecule is placed on a general position, in contrast to the analogous compound with a central C(2) ethane bridge, which was previously found to be placed on an inversion center in the same space group. In the title mol-ecule, indazole rings make a dihedral angle of 60.

Tris{2-[(2-amino-benzyl-idene)amino]-ethyl}amine.

The title Schiff base, C(27)H(33)N(7), is a tripodal amine displaying C(3) symmetry, with the central tertiary N atom lying on the threefold crystallographic axis. The N-CH(2)-CH(2)-N conformation of the pendant arms is gauche [torsion angle = 76.1 (3)°], which results in a claw-like mol-ecule, with the terminal aniline groups wrapped around the symmetry axis.

2,2'-(2,6-Pyridinedi-yl)diquinoline.

The title mol-ecule, C(23)H(15)N(3), is a terpyridine derivative resulting from the Friedländer annulation between 2,6-diacetyl-pyridine and N,N'-bis-(2-amino-benz-yl)ethyl-ene-di-amine. The asymmetric unit contains one half-mol-ecule, the complete mol-ecule being generated by a mirror plane (one N atom and one C atom lie on the plane). The mol-ecule, although aromatic, is deformed from planarity as a result of crystal packing forces: mol-ecules are stacked along the short c axis, with a short separation of 3.

N,N'-Bis(2-ammonio-benz-yl)ethane-1,2-diammonium-nitrate-perchlorate (1/1.5/2.5).

The title compound, C(16)H(26)N(4) (4+)·2.5ClO(4) (-)·1.5NO(3) (-), is an organic salt in which the cation is a fully protonated tetra-mine.
