Materials based on the pillared cyano-bridged architecture, [Ni’(L)Ni(CN)4]n (L = pillar organic ligands), also known as PICNICs, have been shown to be especially diverse where pore size and pore functionality can be varied by the choice of pillar organic ligand. In addition, a number of PICNICs form soft porous structures that show reversible structure transitions during the adsorption and desorption of guests. The structural flexibility in these materials can be affected by relatively minor differences in ligand design, and the physical driving force for variations in host-guest behavior in these materials is still not known. One key to understanding this diversity is a detailed investigation of the crystal structures of both rigid and flexible PICNIC derivatives. This article gives a brief review of flexible MOFs. It also reports the crystal structures of five PICNICS from our laboratories including three 3-D porous frameworks (Ni-Bpene, NI-BpyMe, Ni-BpyNH2), one 2-D layer (Ni-Bpy), and one 1-D chain (Ni-Naph) compound.

Additionally, it was found that K. pneumoniae strain is not only able to degrade potassium cyanide, but also to degrade potassium hexacyano- ferrate(II) trihydrate and sodium ferrocyanide decahydrate with the effi ciencies of 85 and 87.5 %, respectively. Furthermore, this strain degraded potassium cyanide in the presence of diff erent ions such as magnesium, nickel, cobalt, iron, chromium, arsenic and zinc, in variable concentrations (0.1, 0.25 and 0.5 mM) and as a result the amount of the bacteria in the biodegradation media decreased with the increase of ion concentration. Lastly, it was also observed that sterile crude extract of K. pneumoniae strain degraded potassium cya- nide on the fi ft h day of incubation. Based on these results, it is concluded that both culture and sterile crude extract of K. pnemoniae will be used in cyanide removal from diff erent wastes.

Bose The hydrolytic cleavage and oxidative degradation mechanisms of dGDP by the oxochromate-(V) complexes bis(2-ethyl-2-hydroxybutanoato)oxochromate(V) (I) and bis(hydroxyethyl)-amino-tris((hydroxymethyl)methane)oxochromate(V) (II) in the presence of H2O2 were investigated at neutral pH. The products of the reactions were separated and characterized by chromatographic and spectroscopic methods. The oxidative degradation is supported by the detection of free G, furfural, phosphoglycolate, pyrophosphate, guaninepropenal, 8OHdG and guanidinohydantoin. These products are formed through two parallel mechanisms that start with a common Cr-dGDP intermediate in which the oxochromate binds the α phosphate moiety followed by abstraction of H from C4’ and C5’ from the ribose. The detection of inorganic phosphate and dGMP suggests that when the oxometal binds the β phosphate it mainly promotes hydrolytic cleavage of the phosphate diester bond.

Ziegler Kim C. Calvo Committee Member Dean of the College Claire A. Tessier Ronald F. Levant Committee Member Dean of the Graduate School David A. Modarelli George R. Newkome Committee Member Date Wiley J. Youngs Committee Member Rex D. Ramsier ii ABSTRACT The synthesis of low-coordinate metal ions has been a focus of bioinorganic chemists due to their important roles in active sites in enzymes and protein. Although the isolation of these types of complexes is challenging, porphyrin analogs with one or two carbon atoms in the interior position can be good candidates for generating protected low coordinate metal sites. The metal coordination of one or two carbon substituted hemiporphyrazines, namely monocarbahemiporphyrazine and dicarbahemiporphyrazine, was investigated. These porphyrin analogs, in which one or two of the central metal binding nitrogen atoms were replaced with C-H groups, were synthesized in the early 1950s by Linstead and co-workers, but their metal binding chemistry remained unexplored. Several low coordinate metal complexes of dicarbahemiporphyrazine, namely silver, copper, manganese, iron and cobalt were synthesized. Three different cobalt complexes of monocarbahemiporphyrazine in +2 and +3 oxidation states were also synthesized. Porpholactone is another example of a ring modified porphyrin isomer. In this macrocycle one of the four pyrrollic units is oxidized to an oxazolone ring.

    pp-03-25-new dots.qxd 10/23/02 2:41 PM Page 611 NICKEL CARBONATE 611 NICKEL CARBONATE [3333-67-3] Formula: NiCO3; MW 118.72 Two basic carbonates are known. They are 2NiCO3•3Ni(OH)2•4H2O [29863- 10-3], and NiCO3•2Ni(OH)2 [12607-70-4], MW 304.17. The second form occurs in nature as a tetrahydrate, mineral, zaratite. Commercial nickel car- bonate is usually the basic salt, 2NiCO3•3Ni(OH)2•4H2O. Uses Nickel carbonate is used to prepare nickel catalysts and several specialty compounds of nickel. It also is used as a neutralizing agent in nickel plating solutions. Other applications are in coloring glass and in the manufacture of ceramic pigments. Physical Properties NiCO3: Light green rhombohedral crystals; decomposes on heating; practi- cally insoluble in water, 93 mg/L at 25°C; dissolves in acids. 2NiCO3•3Ni(OH)2•4H2O: Light green crystals or brown powder; decom- poses on heating; insoluble in water; decomposes in hot water; soluble in acids and in ammonium salts solutions. Zaratite: Emerald greed cubic crystals; density 2.6 g/cm3; insoluble in water; soluble in ammonia and dilute acids. Thermochemical Properties ∆Ηƒ° (NiCO3) –140.6 kcal/mol Preparation Anhydrous nickel carbonate is produced as a precipitate when calcium car- bonate is heated with a solution of nickel chloride in a sealed tube at 150°C. Alternatively, treating nickel powder with ammonia and carbon dioxide fol- lowed by boiling off ammonia yields pure carbonate. When sodium carbonate is added to a solution of Ni(II) salts, basic nickel carbonate precipitates out in impure form.
