The experimental results were analyzed using the stability constants and speciation diagrams of fluoride metal complexes. The presence of fluoride in the solution has a positive influence upon the separation of gallium from aluminum. The results show that increasing the fluoride concentration makes a more effective separation of gallium from aluminum because of a simultaneous increase in the complexion of aluminum with fluoride and a change in the electrical charge of the aluminum(ALF_4^-). The dehydration model of LIU and DOYLE was also applied to compare the ion flotation and the selectivity coefficients of gallium over aluminum with experimental results.展开更多

Dimeric organosamarium hydride[(C_9H_7)_2SmH]_2·4THF·NaCl prepared by the reaction of (C_9H_7)_2SmCl·2THF with NaH in THF reacts with unsaturated carbonyl compounds to give the corresponding reduction products with a high selectivity. The carbonyl groups have been reduced while the carbon-carbon double bonds are not affected.展开更多

These two terpolymer ligands were reacted with GdCl 3 to afford amphiphilic oligomers of Gd(Ⅲ) complexes. These new ligands and Gd(Ⅲ) complexes were characterized by IR, 1H NMR and elemental analysis. The oligomeric complexes show a higher relaxivity as compared to that of Gd(DTPA) which is widely used in clinic diagnoses. The Gd(Ⅲ) complex derived from octodecyl ester demonstrated liver-selective enhancement for MR imaging of Wistar rat. The ratios of signal to noise ( S/N ) in the proton intensity imaging were enhanced,respectively,by 15%,27%,and 36% at the time of 5,30 and 45 min after injection of this complex.展开更多
