By far the most important ores of iron come from Precambrian banded iron formations (BIF), which are essentially chemical sediments of alternating siliceous and iron-rich bands. The most notable occurrences are those at Hamersley in Australia, Lake Superior in USA and Canada, Transvaal in South Africa, and Bihar and Karnataka in India. The important manganese deposits of the world are associated with sedimentary deposits the manganese nodules on the ocean floor are also chemically precipitated from solutions. Phosphorites, the main source of phosphates, are special types of sedimentary deposits formed under marine conditions. Bedded iron sulfide deposits are formed by sulfate reducing bacteria in sedimentary environments. Similarly uranium-vanadium in sandstone-type uranium deposits and stratiform lead and zinc concentrations associated with carbonate rocks owe their origin to syngenetic chemical precipitation. 

The tetrazinc [Zn4(/r4-0)(/i-C02CR)6] can be prepared by a variety of methods with short straight chain carboxylic acids and this structural type identified by characteristic IR bands. The formation process and influence of water were monitored by IR spectroscopy and a mechanism of formation and decomposition proposed.375 Further evidence for the validity of the mechanism,... 

At the suggestion of Elsevier Scientific Publishing Company , the term ferruginous quartzite used earlier has been replaced by the broader term banded iron-formation (BIF). The status of these rocks has been successfully shown by Beukes (1973) in a diagram which it is advisable to give here (Fig. 10). For the iron-rich shales (schists) often associated with BIF proper, especially of Superior or Krivoy Rog type, it is advisable to use the terms iron-rich shales or ferruginous shales (or schists). 

Oxygenic photosynthesis has been dated to before 2.0 billion years ago by some distinctive geological records. The extensive banded iron formation (BIEs) dated 2.0-2.5 billion years ago, can serve as an evidence of the development of this type of photosynthesis. The iron occurs in the form of almost pure ferric oxide and silica, and the formation of BIFs can be explained by the oxidation of ferrous iron in solution with oxygen, produced in large quantities in photosynthesis. The only pre-Cambrian photosynthetic organisms that could carry this out were cyanobacteria. There are extensive fossil records of similar organisms in geological formations of that age. 

Figure 3, which is a replot of the data of Fig. 1, was included to focus attention on the deformational behavior of these steels as measured by elongation. At 70 F, these steels deform by localized necking and extensive reduction of area, followed by fracture in the necked area (see Fig. 10). At -320 and -423°F, these same steels deform by a much more uniform elongation and reduction of area over the entire reduced section (see Fig. 10). This condition is most pronounced in the 62 cold-worked samples. At low temperature, the increase in strength in the reduced section due to plastic strain and associated martensite formation more than offsets the increase in stress due to the reduction in cross-sectional area (i.e., necking down) hence, the sample elongates over the entire reduced section prior to failure. At -423 F this elongation frequently occurs in a discontinuous manner, accompanied by audible clicks, serrations in the stress—strain curve, and striations in the sample, whose appearance is not unlike Luder s bands. The cross section of such a striation is shown in Fig. 12. These striations have been observed in other alloys by other investigators, and have been variously attributed to catastrophic twinning, thermal instability, and the burst-type formation of dislocations [1]. In this material another possibility exists, namely, the formation of martensite. This transformation is known to occur by an instantaneous shear mechanism and yields a volume increase which could account for the serrated stress—strain curve [5]. These effects demonstrate again that the...

The charge-tranter concept of Mulliken was introduced to account for a type of molecular complex formation in which a new electronic absorption band, attributable to neither of the isolated interactants, is observed. The iodine (solute)— benzene (solvent) system studied by Benesi and Hildebrand shows such behavior. Let D represent an interactant capable of functioning as an electron donor and A an interactant that can serve as an electron acceptor. The ground state of the 1 1 complex of D and A is described by the wave function i [Pg.394]

Kuokkanen (1986, 1987 a, 1991) supported the proposal of Nakazumi et al. (1983) based on kinetic and spectrophotometric comparisons of arenediazonium salt solutions in the presence of 18-crown-6 and pentaglyme. He also extended the systematic work on complex formation of benzenediazonium salts, substituted in the 2-position, and in the presence of 15-crown-5 (Kuokkanen, 1990 Kuokkanen et al, 1991). He discovered a useful way to differentiate between the two types of complexes in Scheme 11-2. Increasing the relative concentration of the host compound shifts the ultraviolet absorption band of both types of complex hypsochromically, whereas the NN stretching frequencies are significantly increased only in the case of insertion complexes. ... 

The synthetic route represents a classical ladder polymer synthesis a suitably substituted, open-chain precursor polymer is cyclized to a band structure in a polymer-analogous fashion. The first step here, formation of the polymeric, open-chain precursor structure, is AA-type coupling of a 2,5-dibromo-1,4-dibenzoyl-benzene derivative, by a Yamamoto-type aryl-aryl coupling. The reagent employed for dehalogenation, the nickel(0)/l,5-cyclooctadiene complex (Ni(COD)2), was used in stoichiometric amounts with co-reagents (2,2 -bipyridine and 1,5-cyclooctadiene), in dimethylacetamide or dimethylformamide as solvent.
