ΔG? for the overall ring and nitrogen inversion barriers in N-methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline has been found to be 35.2 kJ/mol in vinyl chloride, and 50.2 kJ/mol in aqueous solution. Both measurements are believed to reflect the height of the nitrogen inversion barrier. The difference is attributed to hydrogen bonding in the aqueous solution. At low pH anomalous inversion rates were obtained.

The crystal structure of 4-(2,3,5,6-tetrafluoropyridyl)diphenylphosphine oxide (1) contains two independent molecules in the asymmetric unit. Although the molecules are virtually identical in all other aspects, the P=O bond distances differ by ca. 0.02 Å. In contrast, although tris(pentafluorophenyl)phosphine oxide (2) has a similar crystal structure, the P=O bond distances of the two independent molecules are identical. To investigate the reason for the difference, a density functional theory study was undertaken. Both structures comprise chains of molecules. The attraction between molecules of 1, which comprises lone pair–π, weak hydrogen bonding and C–H∙∙∙arene interactions, has energies of 70 and 71 kJ mol−1. The attraction between molecules of 2 comprises two lone pair–π interactions, and has energies of 99 and 100 kJ mol−1. There is weak hydrogen bonding between molecules of adjacent chains involving the oxygen atom of 1. For one molecule, this interaction is with a symmetry independent molecule, whereas for the other, it also occurs with a symmetry related molecule. This provides a reason for the difference in P=O distance. This interaction is not possible for 2, and so there is no difference between the P=O distances of 2.

The removal of Cr6+ from aqueous solution using unmodified and hydrochloric modified African nutmeg pod was studied. The effects of particle size, pH and initial metal ions concentration adsorbed were investigated. The amount of metal ion adsorbed increased as the initial metal ion concentration increased and also decreased at low pH of 2 for both modified and unmodified African nutmeg pod.  400 µm and 250 µm were the optimum particle sizes for both modified and unmodified African nutmeg pod respectively, values given as 75.8 mg/g for the modified and 93.39 mg/g for the unmodified. Generally, it was observed that the unmodified African nutmeg pod showed greater adsorption capacity than the modified African nutmeg pod. The equilibrium experimental data were examined via Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm models.  Freundlich isotherm model gave the best fit for the data in both unmodified and modified African nutmeg pod based on the correlation coefficients (R2 values) gotten. The results of the study showed that the African nutmeg pod is efficient for the removal of Cr6+ from aqueous solutions especially when unmodified.

Abstract This paper addresses the applicability of liquid-liquid extraction for separating mineral particles by the difference in oil-water partition coefficient, for the seafloor mineral processing of Seafloor Massive Sulfides (SMSs). Measurements of contact angle of sulfide mineral – aqueous solution – oil systems under high-pressure conditions were performed to evaluate the efficiency of liquid-liquid extraction at high pressures. The results showed that the contact angle stayed around 80 - 100° at the pressure range up to 16MPa; and the changes in the contact angles were within 5° with varying pressure. Extraction experiments were carried out by using particles of an SMS ore, which contained Zinc (Zn), Lead (Pb), and Barium (Ba) in the grade of more than 10 mass% and Copper (Cu) in a small percentage, to evaluate the beneficiation performance of liquid-liquid extraction. In the experiments, extraction conditions such as the dosage of chemical reagents, and pH in the aqueous solution were varied to optimize both the recovery and selectivity of Cu, Zn, and Pb in the oil phase, and those of Ba in the water phase. The experimental results showed that the optimum condition was 200 g/t dosage - pH 7, where the grade and recovery were ca. 37 mass% and ca. 90 mass%, respectively. The beneficiation performance of liquid-liquid extraction would be comparable to that of flotation, adapted to the processing of other SMS ores.
