The chemical composition of a residuum is complex. Physical methods of fractionation usually indicate high proportions of asphaltenes and resins, even in amounts up to 50% (or higher) of the residuum. In addition, the presence of ash-forming metallic constituents, including such organometallic compounds as those of vanadium and nickel, is also a distinguishing feature...

Nuclear-physical methods ai e the basic ones in controlling environmental pollution which results from nucleai -power complexes and power plants work. Oil and gas production leads to the extraction of radio nuclides of natural origin in considerable amounts, which later spread from oil-slimes and water wastes in the neighborhoods of oil and gas producing entei prises. Similaidy, toxic and radioactive elements can pollute environment in case of mineral deposits extraction. 

Whilst solving some ecological problems of metals micro quantity determination in food products and water physicochemical and physical methods of analysis are employed. Standard mixture models (CO) are necessary for their implementation. The most interesting COs are the ones suitable for graduation and accuracy control in several analysis methods. Therefore the formation of poly functional COs is one of the most contemporary problems of modern analytical chemistry. The organic metal complexes are the most prospective class of CO-based initial substances where P-diketonates are the most appealing. 

The authors have written and revised six chapters that describe the aspects of purificatton and properties of chemical substances. In addition to detailing physical method and procedures such as crystallization, distillation, chromatography, etc, the authors also address chemical methods and procedure used in purification Including conv sion to specific derivatives or complexes and regeneration of the original material in a much-purified form. 

In the post-World War II years, synthesis attained a different level of sophistication partly as a result of the confluence of five stimuli (1) the formulation of detailed electronic mechanisms for the fundamental organic reactions, (2) the introduction of conformational analysis of organic structures and transition states based on stereochemical principles, (3) the development of spectroscopic and other physical methods for structural analysis, (4) the use of chromatographic methods of analysis and separation, and (5) the discovery and application of new selective chemical reagents. As a result, the period 1945 to 1960 encompassed the synthesis of such complex molecules as vitamin A (O. Isler, 1949), cortisone (R. Woodward, R. Robinson, 1951), strychnine (R. Woodward, 1954), cedrol (G. Stork, 1955), morphine (M. Gates, 1956), reserpine (R. Woodward, 1956), penicillin V (J. Sheehan, 1957), colchicine (A. Eschenmoser, 1959), and chlorophyll (R. Woodward, 1960) (page 5). ... 

Another type of model electrode uses multilayer electrolytic deposits, which attracted the interest of electrochemists long before physical methods for their structural characterization were introduced. These electrodes were usually characterized by their roughness factors rather than particle size, the former being of the order of 10 -10 (for original references, see the review [Petrii and Tsirhna, 2001]). Multilayer electrolytic deposits have very complex stmctures [Plyasova et al., 2006] consisting of nanometer-sized crystallites joined together via grain boundaries, and hence have very pecuhar electrocatalytic properties [Cherstiouk et al., 2008] they will not be considered further in this chapter. 

This means that addition of elemental E to alkali metal polychalcogenide fluxes (200-600°C) will promote the formation of longer chains as potential ligands, when such molten salts are employed as reaction media for the preparation of polychalcogenide complexes. Speciation analysis for polychalcogenides in solution has been performed by a variety of physical methods including UV/vis absorption spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, Se, Te and Te NMR, electron spin resonance and electrospray mass spectrometry. 

In addition to the Annual Reports on NMR Spectroscopy monograph reviewing H-NMR and, 3C-NMR spectroscopy of alkaloids in three volumes (305), several books and reviews appeared concerning the 13C-NMR spectroscopy of naturally occurring substances (306-308). Therefore we would like to present only a limited number of examples of the exceptional applicability of these physical methods for structure elucidation and conformational analysis of complex molecules. 

Cationic complexes are key intermediates in a great variety of organic transformations such as isomerizations, rearrangements, addition reactions, aromatic substitutions, polymerization and others. Long-lived cationic complexes are important structural models for these intermediates. Studies of such complexes by modem physical methods provide valuable insight regarding their structure and reactivity. 

By employing modem physical methods and quantum-chemical calculations, a significant body of data concerning the structure and reactivity of organic cationic complexes has been accumulated during the past decade and further studies on this dynamic area of organic chemistry are currently underway in our laboratoiy. 

A variety of physical methods has been used to ascertain whether or not surface ruthenation alters the structure of a protein. UV-vis, CD, EPR, and resonance Raman spectroscopies have demonstrated that myoglobin [14, 18], cytochrome c [5, 16, 19, 21], and azurin [13] are not perturbed structurally by the attachment of a ruthenium complex to a surface histidine. The reduction potential of the metal redox center of a protein and its temperature dependence are indicators of protein structure as well. Cyclic voltammetry [5, 13], differential pulse polarography [14,21], and spectroelectrochemistry [12,14,22] are commonly used for the determination of the ruthenium and protein redox center potentials in modified proteins.
