    Notes: Abstract A semiquantitative electron probe X-ray microan-alytical (XRMA) technique, in conjunction with transmission electron microscopy, was used to compare the calcium to phosphorus (Ca/P) molar ratios in calcium phosphate standards of known composition, in normal bone and in bone from patients with osteogenesis imperfecta (OI). Using a modified routine processing and resin embedding schedule, the measured Ca/P molar ratio of calcium phosphates standards of known composition were found to correlate well with the Ca/P molar ratio based on their respective chemical formulae. This technique was then used to compare the Ca/P molar ratio in normal human bone and in OI bone. The Ca/P ratio values for normal bone (Ca/P=1.631) correlated well with those for chemically prepared hydroxyapatite (Ca/P=1.602), but in bone from OI patients, the Ca/P molar ratio was significantly lower (Ca/P=1.488). This study has shown that there is a lower Ca/P molar ratio in OI bone compared with normal, matched bone. This suggests that the mineral deviates from the carbanoapatite usually found in bone. Isomorphous substitutions in the carbanoapatite lattice could account for this although this study has neither proved nor disproved this. The altered bone mineral is an-other factor that could contribute to the increased fracture rate observed in OI.

    Notes: Abstract Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and 31P solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy were used to determine if any structural or compositional differences in osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) bone mineral could be detected that might help to explain the bone fragility observed in this disease. A previous study by Cassella et al. used an electron probe X-ray microanalytical technique to compare the calcium to phosphorus (Ca/P) molar ratios in normal bone and bone from patients with OI. It was demonstrated that bone from OI patients had a lower Ca/P molar ratio. This study demonstrated that OI bone mineral had a general hydroxyapatite structure and that isomorphous substitutions in the carbanoapatite lattice could account for the low Ca/P molar ratio.

    Notes: Dioxotetracyanomolybdate(IV) has been found to form a 1 : 2 complex with 2,2′-bipyridyl. The kinetics of the reaction has been studied over the pH range 5.3-8.7 by visible spectrophotometry under pseudo conditions. The effect of the 2,2′-bipyridyl and dioxotetracyanomolybdate(IV), temperature, ionic strength, and pH on the reaction rate was determined. The reaction follows first-order kinetics with respect to dioxotetracyanomolybdate(IV) ion and fractional-order kinetics with respect to 2,2′-bipyridyl. Values for the outer-sphere complex formation constant (Kos2) and rate constants (k2) were also calculated from the kinetic data. It was found that rate of the reaction increases with the decreasing pH. The following rate equation based on the outersphere complexation equilibrium preceding the associative interchange has been derived.\documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$$\rm {{1}\over{{\it k}_{obs}}}={{1+K_{a2}[H^+]}\over{B_1[2,2\prime-bipyridyl]}}+B_2$$ ${\rm where}$ $\rm B_1={\it k}_1K_{os1}+{\it k}_2K_{os2}[H^+]K_{a2}$ ${\rm and}$ $\rm B_2={{K_{os1}+K_{a2}K_{os2}[H^+]}\over {{\it k}_1K_{os1}+{\it k}_2K_{os2}[H^+]K_{a2}}}.$\end{document}On the basis of the observed results probable mechanism has been proposed. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: An investigation is presented on the kinetics of complexation of aqueous solution of octacyanomolybdate (IV) and -tungstate (IV) after photoinitiation with one of the mixed group ligands containing both N and O, diethanolamine (DEOA), [NH(CH2CH2OH)2]. Under the steady state conditions and with approximation k3 〉 k4 over a range of concentrations, the observed rate law is:\documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$$ \cal{k}_{\rm obs.}={\cal{k}_{2}\cal{k}_{4}\rm {I}_{a}[\rm {OH}^{-}][\rm {NH}(\rm{CH}_{2}\rm{CH}_{2}\rm{OH})_{2}]\over \rm{I}+\it \cal{k}_{2}[\rm {OH}^{-}]} $$\end{document}The complexes show shift in electronic transition supporting the mechanism of association of the ligand followed by the abstraction of some small molecules and then substitution by the ligand. The presence of the specific isobestic point also contributes towards the stability of the complex. The rate constant and quantum yield values are dependent on both the concentration of the metal cyanide and the ligand predicting the mechanism to be an associative one. The complexes have strong absorption in the visible range and are assigned metal-to-ligand electron transfer transition. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Int J Chem Kinet 29: 819-824, 1997
