Hydrazine hydrate reducing property

Of these, the synthesis of one-dimensional nanostructures (Figure 1.3) is very attractive because of their size-dependant electronic and optical properties [15]. It is reported that hydrazine hydrate acts both as a reducing agent and as an in situ soft template (Figure 1.4) that forms different conformations favoring the formation of one-dimensional nanostructures [16]. 

Hydrazine salts retain the reactivity and reducing property of anhydrous hydrazine or hydrazine hydrate, making them suitable as analytical agents, energetic compounds, and starting material for metal complexes. These aspects are discussed in the following sections. 

In the case of peraksine [RP-5 (27)] it was shown to have the formula C19H22N2O2, a fact not readily derived from combustion analysis since the free base crystallized from alcohol in a hydrated form (27). It has also been observed that this water of solvation could be displaced by chloroform (20). Peraksine has UV-absorption typical of a 2,3-disub-stituted indole and reacted with benzoyl chloride to form an 0-benzoyl derivative. The second oxygen was apparently present as a cyclic ether when it was found that although peraksine did not react with hydrazine derivatives, it was reducible with sodium borohydride to furnish a diol (mp 290°-291° [a]j) - -41° in Py diacetate, mp 103°-105°). This diol readily lost the elements of water upon acid treatment to afford a new ether, deoxyperaksine, 230° change in crystalline form (mp 255°-257°). Because of these properties peraksine was considered to possess a cyclic hemiacetal moiety. 

Corrosion protection by ICPs has been well documented in several reviews [136-141]. The use of ICP-based core-shell latexes for the corrosion protection of steel is a relatively new field of research, and a recent review has proposed the exploitation of such possibihties [142]. In a recent study, we found that ICP-based core-shell latexes offer the possibility of achieving anticorrosion properties [143], though the presence of pinholes or scratches in the coatings enhances the corrosion rate of metals. This problem may be due to poor dispersion of the composite particles in the insulating resin systems, and future research will need to develop conductive polymer-based anticorrosive primers for metals. The anticorrosive properties of PANI-coated polystyrene latex microspheres has been reported recently [144]. PS-PANI composite particles with core-shell structure were prepared by chemical oxidative polymerization of anihne monomer in the presence of a PVP-stabilized PS latex suspension. The reduced form of the particle was obtained by adding hydrazine mono hydrate to the suspension. Both oxidized and reduced PANI-PS particles were used to obtain a PANI-PS-coated iron electrode (PANl-PS-Fe). Pure PANI...
