Group 11 complexes with unsymmetrical P,S and P,Se disubstituted ferrocene ligands.

The reaction of the unsymmetrical ligands 1-diphenylphosphino-1'-(phenylsulfanyl)ferrocene and 1-diphenylphosphino-1'-(phenylselenyl)ferrocene, Fc(EPh)PPh2(E = S, Se), with several group 11 metal derivatives leads to the synthesis of complexes of the type [MX{Fc(EPh)PPh2}](M = Au, X = Cl, C6F5; M = Ag, X = OTf), (OTf = trifluoromethanesulfonate), [M{Fc(EPh)PPh2}2]X (M = Au, X = ClO4; M = Ag, X = OTf), [M(PPh3){Fc(EPh)PPh2}]OTf (M = Au, Ag), [Au2{Fc(SPh)PPh2}2](ClO4)2, [Au(C6F5)2{Fc(SePh)PPh2}]ClO4, [Au(C6F5)3{Fc(EPh)PPh2}], [Au2(C6F5)6{Fc(SePh)PPh2}] or [Cu{Fc(EPh)PPh2}2]PF6(E = S, Se). In these complexes coordination depends upon the metal centre; with gold it takes place predominantly to the phosphorus atom and with silver and copper to both phosphorus and chalcogen atoms. The treatment of some of the gold complexes with other metal centres affords heterometallic derivatives that in some cases are in equilibrium with the homometallic derivatives. Several compounds have been characterized by X-ray diffraction, four pairs of homologous compounds, yet not a single pair is isotypic. In many of them a three dimensional network is formed through secondary bonds such as hydrogen bonds, Au...Cl or Au...Se interactions. The complex [Ag(OTf){Fc(SePh)PPh2}] forms one-dimensional chains through trifluoromethanesulfonate bridging ligands.

Effect of noble metal conditioners on bonding between prosthetic composite material and silver-palladium-copper-gold alloy.

STATEMENT OF PROBLEM: Mechanical retentive devices and the application of complicated surface preparation have been indispensable for bonding composite material to the metal substructure of restorations. PURPOSE: This study evaluated the priming effects of 4 metal conditioners on bonding between a prosthetic veneering material and a silver-palladium-based casting alloy. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Four primers designed for conditioning noble metal alloys (Alloy Primer, Metaltite, Metal Primer II, and V-Primer) were assessed (all materials contain organic sulfur compounds). Cast disk specimens made of silver-palladium-copper-gold alloy (Castwell M.C.12) were primed with 1 of the 4 primers, and bonded with a light-activated prosthetic composite material (Axis). Shear testing was performed before and after thermocycling for evaluation of bond durability. RESULTS: All primed groups showed improved 24-hour bond strengths compared with the unprimed group. After thermocycling, 3 groups primed with the Metal Primer II, Alloy Primer, and Metaltite agents exhibited the highest bond strength. CONCLUSION: Use of 1-liquid metal conditioners containing sulfur compounds was a simple and useful method for improving bonding between the alloy and the composite material tested.

Interaction of silver nitrate with readily identifiable groups: relationship to the antibacterial action of silver ions.

Microbiologically it was demonstrated that amino acids, e.g. cysteine (CySH), and other compounds, e.g. sodium thioglycollate, containing thiol groups neutralized the activity of silver nitrate against Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1. Amino acids with disulphide bonds were inactive, with the exception of L-cystine dimethyl ester, as were all amino acids with no sulphur groups. Iodoacetamide reacted with CySH to produce a CyS-acetamide complex that was unable to quench the activity of Ag+. Chemical analyses using cyclic voltammetry demonstrated that high coordination numbers (3.1) were obtained with thiol-containing amino acids and low numbers (0.28-0.4) with other amino acids. Both microbiologically and chemically, the results imply that interaction of Ag+ with thiol groups plays an essential role in bacterial inactivation.

Direct synthesis of nanocrystalline silver from the reaction between silver carboxylates and n-trioctylphosphine.

Neat n-Trioctylphosphine (TOP) has been used for the first ever time for reduction of silver nitrate and silver carboxylates (citrate, oleate, and myristate) under mild thermal reaction conditions. UV-visible absorption measurements of re-dispersible silver particles that were obtained by reduction of silver myristrate (product-IV) and silver nitrate (product-I) showed surface plasmon resonance absorption peak at 400 nm. The powder XRD pattern of fcc zero-valent silver resulted in diameters in the range of about 25-30 nm. TEM analysis showed particle diameter similar to that was observed by the XRD. FTIR spectroscopy revealed that the organics from the carboxylate group are retained by the nano-particles in case of product-IV however, presence of TOP is observed in product-I. It is found that when silver nitrate is reduced by TOP, spherical silver nano-particles with poor redispersity are formed but extended heating results in formation of long silver rods of micrometer size however, the re-dispersible nano-particles are easily formed when silver carboxylates are reduced by TOP.

Studies on poly(trimethylene terephthalate) filaments containing silver.

Two methods were used to incorporate silver ions into poly(trimethylene terephthalate) (PTT) fibers. The first technique involved the direct addition of silver (I) sulfadiazine into PTT polymer prior to extrusion. The second method involved the use of silver-exchanged zeolites. Although no optimization with silver-exchanged zeolites was conducted, this study clearly showed that PTT fibers containing sufficient amounts of silver ions are effective in reducing pathological-microorganisms such as Escherichia coli. Incorporation of silver-exchanged zeolites into PTT imparted a silver color to the fibers which may be attributed to the partial reduction of silver ions during spinning at 256 degrees C. Because of the decomposition of silver (I) sulfadiazine, the spinnability of PTT fiber sample was not satisfactory and, therefore, this compound cannot be used as a carrier of silver ions in PTT. The thermal, tensile and antimicrobial properties of the spun filaments are reported in this paper.

Effect of glass ionomer manipulation on early fluoride release.

PURPOSE: To determine the amount of fluoride released from several glass ionomer products [Fuji Cap II, Fuji Ionomer Type II, Ketac-Silver, Chelon-Silver, and Miracle Mix (hand-mixed and encapsulated)], and to compare them between triturated (5, 10, 15 seconds) encapsulated and hand-mixed glass ionomers. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The amount of fluoride released at 1, 2, 3, 7, 14, 21 and 28 days after the start of immersion in deionized-distilled water at 37 degrees C was determined with a fluoride ion selective electrode. Rates of fluoride release and cumulative amounts of fluoride release were calculated. RESULTS: Each glass ionomer released the greatest amount of fluoride during the first 24-hour period. Although there was some variation between products, generally the hand-mixed specimens released significantly (P < 0.05) less fluoride than those prepared by mechanical trituration (10 and 15 seconds). The cumulative amounts of fluoride released from the mechanically triturated glass ionomers were significantly (P < 0.05) greater than the amounts released from the hand-mixed glass ionomers. No significant differences in the cumulative amounts of fluoride released from triturated materials were found among the different trituration times.

Preventive effect of tooth fracture by pulsed Nd:YAG laser irradiation with diamine silver fluoride solution.

OBJECTIVE: The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the preventive effect of pulsed Nd:YAG laser irradiation with 38% diamine silver fluoride [Ag(NH3)2F] solution for the fracture of endodontically treated teeth in vitro. BACKGROUND DATA: There have been no reports on the preventive effect of tooth fracture using Nd:YAG laser with Ag(NH3)2F solution. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Twenty-eight human extracted teeth were used in this study. The teeth were randomly classified into four groups: control group, where tooth surfaces were not submitted to any treatment; group 1, where tooth surfaces were coated with 38% Ag(NH3)2F solution; group 2, where tooth surfaces were coated with Ag(NH3)2F solution and irradiated by pulsed Nd:YAG laser for 2 sec; and group 3, where tooth surfaces were coated with Ag(NH3)2F solution and irradiated by pulsed Nd:YAG laser for 10 sec. After preparation, shear tests were performed and the maximum load for the fracture was measured. Results were analyzed using the Scheffe test, and difference at p < 0.05 was considered significant. RESULTS: The failure load for group 2 (mean, 182.5 kg) had the highest mean value and differed significantly from those for the control group (mean, 146.3 kg) and group 1 (mean, 147.1 kg; p < 0.05). The failure loads for groups 1 and 3 (mean, 150.0 kg) did not differ significantly from that for the control group (p > 0.05). CONCLUSION: The results show that the application of 38% Ag(NH3)2F solution followed by pulsed Nd:YAG laser irradiation for 2 sec is useful for prevention of tooth fracture at endodontically treated teeth.

Characterization of Co25Ag75 and (Co90Al10)28Ag72 granular films by electron diffraction, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy and electron spectroscopic imaging.

Series of sputter-deposited Co25Ag75 and (Co90Al10)28Ag72 giant-magnetoresistance granular films were characterized by electron diffraction, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy and electron spectroscopic imaging. Crystalline particles of fcc silver and hcp cobalt were detected in both thin-film systems before annealing. Annealing of (Co90Al10)28Ag72 films at 773 and 823 K yielded mixtures of fcc and hcp cobalt clusters and notably enlarged silver particles. In addition, crystallites of bcc Ag3Al were detected in the sample annealed at 823 K. The mesoscopic structure of the as-deposited films was investigated by dark-field imaging showing columnar growth-domains for silver. The columns were preserved during thermal treatment up to 773 K, whereas annealing at 823 K destroyed these domains.

Study of the affinity of thermographic additives for silver by time-of-flight static secondary ion mass spectrometry and surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy on silver nanoparticles.

Detection of the interactions between low molecular weight organic compounds and metals in the form of sols on a nanoscale is analytically challenging. This study aims to provide experimental evidence using a combination of UV-Vis absorption spectrometry, surface-enhanced Raman spectrometry (SERS), and static secondary ion mass spectrometry (S-SIMS). The field of application is thermography where silver images are formed via heat-catalyzed reactions. Several organic compounds called tone modifiers and stabilizers are used in thermographic materials for the optimization of the image quality. With exploitation of the strengths of each of the above-mentioned methods, an affinity ranking of several tone modifiers and a stabilizer was established on the basis of competitive adsorption experiments using different model systems. Specifically, silver sols, SERS probes, and sputter-coated silver substrates were exposed to systems with one or two additives. The UV-Vis results provided insight on the aggregation of silver nanoparticles in a hydrosol, which was necessary for the interpretation of the SERS data. Both SERS and S-SIMS measurements led to a similar ranking of the relative affinity of the additives in two components, which was largely consistent with empirical knowledge derived from macroscopic behavior.

Reduction of inorganic compounds with molecular hydrogen by Micrococcus lactilyticus. I. Stoichiometry with compounds of arsenic, selenium, tellurium, transition and other elements.

Woolfolk, C. A. (University of Washington, Seattle) and H. R. Whiteley. Reduction of inorganic compounds with molecular hydrogen by Micrococcus lactilyticus. I. Stoichiometry with compounds of arsenic, selenium, tellurium, transition and other elements. J. Bacteriol. 84:647-658. 1962.-Extracts of Micrococcus lactilyticus (Veillonella alcalescens) oxidize molecular hydrogen at the expense of certain compounds of arsenic, bismuth, selenium, tellurium, lead, thallium, vanadium, manganese, iron, copper, molybdenum, tungsten, osmium, ruthenium, gold, silver, and uranium, as well as molecular oxygen. Chemical and manometric data indicate that the following reductions are essentially quantitative: arsenate to arsenite, pentavalent and trivalent bismuth to the free element, selenite via elemental selenium to selenide, tellurate and tellurite to tellurium, lead dioxide and manganese dioxide to the divalent state, ferric to ferrous iron, osmium tetroxide to osmate ion, osmium dioxide and trivalent osmium to the metal, uranyl uranium to the tetravalent state, vanadate to the level of vanadyl, and polymolybdate ions to molybdenum blues with an average valence for molybdenum of +5. The results of a study of certain other hydrogenase-containing bacteria with respect to their ability to carry out some of the same reactions are also presented.

Copper(II) complexes of thioether-substituted salcyen and salcyan derivatives and their silver(I) adducts.

New syntheses are reported of 5-tert-butyl-2-hydroxy-3-methylsulfanylbenzaldehyde, 5-tert-butyl-2-hydroxy-3-phenylsulfanyl-benzaldehyde, and salcyen (H(2)L(1)-H(2)L(3)) and salcyan (H(2)L(4)-H(2)L(6))-type ligands derived from these aldehydes and from 5-tert-butyl-2-hydroxybenzaldehyde. The complexes [CuL](L(2-)=[L(1)](2-)-[L(6)](2-)) bearing sulfanyl substituents each show two distinct voltammetric ligand-based oxidations under the same conditions, the first of which is chemically reversible. The first oxidation product is much longer lived by coulometry for the salcyen than for the salcyan ligand complexes, despite the latter having a substantially lower oxidation potential. The lifetimes of all the ligand oxidation products in this system are substantially smaller than for similar compounds derived from 3,5-di(tert-butyl)-2-hydroxybenzaldehyde (Dalton Trans., 2004, 2662). Attempted chemical oxidation of the Schiff base compounds using AgBF(4) yielded instead stable silver(i) adducts. A crystal structure of one such compound showed that the Ag atom was coordinated in a slightly bent geometry by the two ligand sulfanyl groups, with two additional long-range Ag...O interactions to the phenoxide donors. EPR spectra showed that some of these silver adducts dimerise in CH(2)Cl(2), probably through basal, apical intermolecular Cu-O...Cu bridging. In contrast the parent copper(ii) complexes are all monomeric in this solvent by EPR.

[Preparation and activity of metal complexes with heteroatomic organic ligands. Preliminary note].

Various coordination compounds were prepared between transition metals (in particular copper, zinc, silver and cobalt) and benzotriazole 5-methylbenzotriazole, 2-methylbenzotriazole and 2-methylbenzimidazole. Compounds of this type present a significant herbicidal capacity both on monocotyledons and dicotyledons and some of them also present an antimicrobic activity. The method of preparation, the principal chemical characteristics and the analyses to determine the formulae are reported. It was observed that metal can coordinate with benzotriazole and its derivatives either as a neutral molecule (BTAH) or as a deprotonated anion (BTA-), or as a combination of both (BTAH and BTA-).
