Talk:Vaska's complex

message: The balanced equation isn't balanced (for instance 6 Cls on the left give 2 on the right) 129.67.64.163 (talk) 16:05, 27 February 2010 (UTC)

message: This is suggested by the text but not explicitly discussed.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.88.88.91 (talk) 21:17, 19 September 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: You might check out Blood substitute.  Vaska's complex attracted a lot of attention because it reversibly forms an adduct with O2, but other compounds that are simpler and look a little more like myoglobin also bind O2. I think that the best systems are fluorocarbons that simply dissolve a lot of oxygen. --Smokefoot (talk) 02:00, 20 September 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Robert A. Freitas Jr. suggested it as a possible haemoglobin substitute for aliens in Xenology. But even then, he mentions that there are simpler and more likely possibilities, and that the photosensitivity of Vaska's complex is an issue. :) Double sharp (talk) 15:14, 21 November 2022 (UTC)
thread_title:  Is this compound useful for artificial blood? 

message: I doubt that the claimed IUPAC name (SP-4-1)-carbonylchloridobis(triphenylphosphane)iridium(I) is correct. Ligand priority numbers should be: Cl (1), PPh3 (2), CO (3); ligand in trans position relative to Cl (1) is CO (3), so the name should be (SP-4-3)-carbonylchloridobis(triphenylphosphane)iridium(I). Shouldn't?
(I think there might be some confusion from IUPAC IR-9.3.3.3 Square planar coordination systems (SP-4), Example 1 text: “… Priority number sequence: 1 < 2 < 3 < 4 …” which according to surrounding info and examples should read “… Priority number sequence: 1 > 2 > 3 > 4 …”. By the way, these are for [Mabcd] complexes. For [Ma2bc] complexes, there are only three different priority numbers.)

Talk:Cyanogen chloride

message: Sure that cyanogen chloride (and also cyanogen bromide) hydrolyzes in pure water to produce oxidant HOCl (or HOBr, respectively) and reductive HCN the same time? This would mean that the halogens act as electropositive partners in cyanogen halides. I can understand that iodine may act electropositive in cyanogen iodide, due to the similar electronegativity of C and I, and the strong inductive effect of the triple-bonded N on the carbon atom leading to secondary polarization of the C-I bond. But chlorine and bromine should be too electronegative for forming an "inversely" polarized bond to carbon.
Surely cyanogen halides may react to produce HCN (that is one of the reasons for their high toxicity), but I think it needs an additional reducing agent to make cyanogen halides into HCN with water... --79.243.239.89 (talk) 21:50, 13 September 2013 (UTC)

message: "Muir Woods and the National Park Service as a whole face the challenge of low funding. The national park service is gravely underfunded and largely operates without government help. Muir Woods requires funds to protect or care for the rare trees there. The park also needs money to improve the infrastructure and pay the staff. The park currently has deferred maintenance funds of over 10 million dollars. Most importantly, the park needs support from surrounding residents, people, and the government. Without people fighting for the parks, they will fail."
None of this is referenced and without sources should be removed. It's someone's opinion without any evidence to back it up. The National Park Service "largely operates without government help"??? LOL. Since when? Where is the information to back this assertion up? "Without people fighting for the parks they will fail"? Again, SOMEONE'S OPINION.

Talk:Egg cup

message: I removed the content about egg cups in Minoan Crete. There were two problems: Firstly, one of the given sources, the book by Pendlebury doesn't seem to mention any egg cups. (The other given reference for that paragraph was not reliable.) Secondly, matters are complicated because some drinking cups were nicknamed "egg cups" due to their shape (see here for an example). So unless there's an iron-clad source that clarifies that it really isn't talking about egg cup-shaped goblets, I rather doubt the name itself can be used to show that the objects in question were egg cups.

Talk:Postage stamps and postal history of British Columbia

message: I wonder whether the person who wrote this piece knows that there was a period of time when there was a Colony of Vancouver Island and an essentially unorganized mainland, and then pre confederation there was the United Colonies of Vancouver Island and British Columbia. It may have been unusual for two colonies to have one stamp, but in that year, it became a single colony and that was its name so it ought not to seem unusual.  By the way, I too think this article should have a different name.  I would make the changes, but as I am not familiar with philately, it would be better done by someone who is.
