The interaction thermodynamic parameters have been estimated with the solubility data. The results show that both NaCl and MgCl₂ in water is beneficial to dissolution of <img src='http://www.niscair.res.in/jinfo/small.gif' border=0>-cystine. Enthalpy or entropy of interaction between <img src='http://www.niscair.res.in/jinfo/small.gif' border=0>-cystine and NaCl is negative while that between <img src='http://www.niscair.res.in/jinfo/small.gif' border=0>-cystine and MgCl₂ is positive. These interesting results are discussed in the light of static electricity theory as well as hydration of ions.

Some new phases of zeolites have been observed with improved silica alumina ratio up to 3.0 to 3.5. Crystallinity has been monitored by XRD analysis, ranging from 70-99% for different samples.

Two reduction peaks at -1 V/Ag-AgCl and -1.3V/Ag-AgCl and one oxidation peak at - 1.3V/Ag-AgCl have been observed. Shift due to oxidation peak arises from change of cathodic limit, attributed to the two competitive reactions on the surface. The peak located on the more anodic side is due to the oxidation of H_UPD and the second peak due to the oxidation of H_OPD The sodium ion has no effect on the hydrogen evolution reaction. The diffusion coefficient of hydrogen is calculated to be D=2.88×10^-10 cm² s^-1 using impedance technique.

Deprotonation and coordination of thiol group occurs and glycine residue binds with the metal ions in all the complexes. Copper(II) and cobalt(II) complexes show low magnetic moment. EPR spectral data show that complexes have planar geometry. Ligand to metal charge transfer are observed in all the complexes and d-d transition are also observed in copper(II) and cobalt(II) complexes. Thermal decomposition of all the complexes proceeds via first order kinetics. Page(s): 1205-1207 2002-06-01T00:00:00Z
