Pickets

It is essential to use a slow-speed (approximately 0.1 r/min) picket rake in all cylinder tests to prevent particle bridging and allow the sample to attain the underflow density which is obtainable in a full-scale thickener. 

Picket fence weirs were installed on other inboard downcomers also for shielding any blowing.

Iron porphyrins (containing TPP, picket fence porphyrin, or a basket handle porphyrin) catalyzed the electrochemical reduction of CO2 to CO at the Fe(I)/Fe(0) wave in DMF, although the catalyst was destroyed after a few cycles. Addition of a Lewis acid, for example Mg , dramatically improved the rate, the production of CO, and the stability of the catalyst. The mechanism was proposed to proceed by reaction of the reduced iron porphyrin Fe(Por)] with COi to form a carbene-type intermediate [Fe(Por)=C(0 )2, in which the presence of the Lewis acid facilitates C—O bond breaking. " The addition of a Bronsted acid (CF3CH2OH, n-PrOH or 2-pyrrolidone) also results in improved catalyst efficiency and lifetime, with turnover numbers up to. 750 per hour observed. ... 

The development of high-magnification microscopy made it possible to create images of biological materials at the molecular level. Many of these images show structures that have liquid crystalline aspects. Shown here are aligned mosaic virus molecules and protein molecules in voluntary muscles. In addition, all cell walls are picket fences of rod-shaped molecules in regular yet fluid arra. ...

This review is particularly concerned with the bonding modes of the dioxygen ligand, and the factors affecting which of the various possible orientations it assumes in any particular complex. We shall therefore consider all previous work, from the earliest work on synthetic oxygen carriers, right up to the most recent studies on picket-fence and other synthetic porphyrins. All work concerned with an irreversible system will illustrate some principle appertaining to reversibility. On this basis we shall then attempt to provide a unified rationale for ...

Originally, this temperature variation of AEq was attributed to the dynamic distribution of the terminal oxygen of the Fe02-moiety, as suggested by X-ray structural results for picket-fence porphyrins [26,27]. This view is now supported by NFS studies which provide more information on dynamic processes in iron-containing molecules. 

The first test case was the ferrous high-spin state (Fe, S = 2) in the picket-fence porphyrin acetate complex [Fe(CH3COO)(TPpivP)] [13, 23], which is a model for the prosthetic group termed P460 of the multiheme enzyme hydroxyl-amine oxidoreductase from the bacterium Nitrosomonas europeae. Both the picket-fence porphyrin and the protein P460 exhibit an extraordinarily large quadrupole splitting, as observed by conventional Mossbauer studies [56]. 

Fig. 9.21 NFS spectra of the paramagnetic picket-fence porphyrin complex [ Fe(CH3COO) (TPpivP)] obtained at 3.3 K in a field of 6.0 T applied (a) perpendicular to both the synchrotron beam and the polarization vector of the radiation and (b) perpendicular to the synchrotron beam but parallel to the polarization vector of the radiation. The solid lines are simulations with the SYNFOS program using 5 = 2 and parameters described in the text. (Taken from [13])...

The NIS investigation of heme complexes includes various forms of porphyrins (deuteroporphyrin IX, mesoporphyrin IX, protoporphyrin IX, tetraphenylpor-phyrin, octaethylporphyrin, and picket fence porphyrin) and their nitrosyl (NO) and carbonyl (CO) derivatives, and they have been the subject of a review provided by Scheidt et al. [109]. 

Pa. The most recent measurement of the Pa half-life established a value of 32,760 220 yrs based on calorimetry (Robert et al. 1969). This value has been accepted as the commonly used value by most laboratories (e.g., Picket et al. 1994 Edwards et al. 1997). The Commission on Radiochemistry and Nuclear Techniques suggest a value of... 

In order to replicate the slice (so that the tagging is suggestive of a picket fence ), it is sufficient to sample the sinc(tot) function, which can be done by taking the array of numbers that make up sinc(tot) in memory and setting most of the data to zero so the remaining non-zero points are periodic. It has been demonstrated [16] that this is an easy way to generate multiple parallel tagging slices. 

The picket fence Ni11 complex [Ni(TpivPP)] ((70) TpivPP meso-a-a-a-a-lclrakis-(o-pivalamidophenyl)porphyrin) is reversibly oxidized by three electrons in two steps and generates as final product [Ni(Tipw)]3+ which was characterized as a Nilv cation radical in solution by both UV-visible and EPR spectroscopy.289...
