I was preparing spectra for the NMR appendix of my thesis earlier today. I came across a molecule whose 1H spectrum had a peak at 1.56 ppm that I couldn’t explain for quite some time.
Goes to show how long I wasn’t in the lab …

Actually - as you know, you can see deleted posts with $10^{-5}~\mathrm{Grep}$; however, I'm not sure whether you can search for them. I have no way of testing it out, though. It wasn't that offensive, I just thought, no need to dig it up again.

Hi, everyone :-) I've a very very quick question. Is this possible in water:
 
user228700
$[Pt{(NH_3)}_2Cl_4] (NH_3)→ {[Pt{(NH_3)_2}Cl_4]}^{-2} + {{(NH_3)}_2}^{+2}$
 
orthocresol
orthocresol
There, that looks better.
And the existence of a salt with $\ce{NH2-}$ anions is questionable.
 
user228700
Sorry, that was an (NH_3) counter-ion, not NH_2.
 
user228700
Dyou think that is s'thing that would happen in water?
 
orthocresol
orthocresol
3:17 AM
If NH3 is a ligand it should go inside the square brackets, so I don't really know what your compound means.
Specifically the red bit: $\ce{[Pt(NH3)2Cl4]}\color{red}{\ce{(NH3)}}$
That's confusing me.
 
user228700
Sorry! :-/ I mean counter-ion.
 
orthocresol

But NH3 isn't charged.

Lingam
The Lingam (IAST: liṅgaṃ, also linga, ling, Shiva linga, Shiv ling, meaning sign, symbol or phallus) is an abstract or aniconic representation of the Hindu deity, Shiva, used for worship in temples, smaller shrines, or as self-manifested natural objects. In traditional Indian society, the linga is seen as a symbol of the energy and potential of Shiva himself. The lingam is often represented alongside the yoni (Sanskrit word, literally "origin" or "source" or "womb"), a symbol of the goddess or of Shakti, female creative energy. The union of linga and yoni represents the "indivisible two-in-oneness...

@ortho that answer of your’s actually makes most sense when thinking of why coordination complexes typically have d-electrons but no s-electrons. It’s like scales dropping from my eyes!

@Jan You've got scales in your eyes? I mean, I know Jesus said something about a log in somebody's eye, but this was too much ._.

@paracresol Thanks for reminding me to look up what I had wanted to look up for my Jewish co-worker. I found the exact phrase and it was as I had remembered ^^

Oh wait, since @Loong mentioned it, it does sound contradictory ._.
"Nothing I've made is unholy" -God

There's a very great contrast between the Old and New Testament
