    Characterization of thermally induced mechanisms by mass spectrometry-evolved gas analysis (EGA-MS): A study of divalent cobalt and zinc biomimetic complexes with N-heterocyclic dicarboxylic ligands

    No full text
    Mass spectrometry evolved gas analysis (EGA-MS) was applied to characterize cobalt and zinc biomimetic complexes with a polycarboxylate ligand, imidazole-4,5-dicarboxylic acid (H(2)imdc). The precipitated Co(Himdc)(2)(H2O)(2) and Zn(Himdc)(2)(H2O)(2) complexes were studied to determine their thermal stability and to prove their decomposition mechanism by evolved gas analysis (EGA-MS). The results confirmed that the decomposition mechanism, already proposed for the analog copper and nickel complexes, can be assumed as representative for these structures, independently from the central coordinating metal.

    Biomimetic complexes of Co(II), Cu(II) and Ni(II) with 2-aminomethylbenzimidazole. EGA-MS characterization of the thermally induced decomposition

    No full text
    Substituted benzimidazoles are a useful model ligand to simulate specific interactions in biomimetic complexes, since compounds that contain the imidazole ring of the histidine residue are good models of bioinorganic interest. In this study, Co(II), Cu(II) and Ni(II) complexes with 2-aminomethylbenzimidazole ligand, synthesized following the literature, were characterized by mass spectrometry evolved gas analysis (EGA-MS) that allowed one to describe their thermally induced decomposition. © 2014 Elsevier B.V

    Biomimetic complexes of divalent cobalt and zinc with N-heterocyclic dicarboxylic ligands

    To complete a previous characterization of complexes with a polycarboxylate ligand, imidazole-4,5-dicarboxylic acid (H(2)imdc), cobalt and zinc complexes with (Himdc)(-) ligand were synthesized. The precipitated Co(Himdc)(2)(H2O)(2) and Zn(Himdc)(2)(H2O)(2) complexes were characterized and their stability was studied by thermoanalytical techniques coupled to mass spectrometry, to prove their decomposition mechanism by evolved gas analysis (EGA-MS). The results confirmed that the decomposition mechanism, already proposed for the analog copper and nickel complexes, can be assumed as representative for these structures, independently from the central coordinating metal.

    Reading: Jessica Bruder

    In this audiovisual recording from Thursday, March 24, 2022, as part of the 53rd Annual UND Writers Conference: “Communities and the Individual,” Jessica Bruder reads excerpts from Nomadland. Bruder discusses what it means to be an immersion journalist and what brought her to write Nomadland. Bruder also responds to audience questions about the dynamic between author and those who share their stories for a novel like Nomadland, the connection between immersive journalism and the new journalism literary movement, the process of collecting, organizing, and transforming material into a novel, how faithful the film version of Nomadland was to the book, and if Linda ever got to build her Earthship. Introduced by Dr. Lori Robison, Chair of the Department of English
