- Description: Photolysis of Sn(IV)Pc(OH)2 (Pc = phthalocyanine dianion) and Sn(IV)Pc(Cl)2 using a tungsten lamp, and in the presence of SnCl2·2H2O as an electron donor results in the reduction of these complexes of π anion radical species. The reduction shows second order dependence on the concentration of the Sn(IV)Pc complexes and a first order dependence on SnCl2·H2O.

- Description: The Etendeka volcanic rocks of northwestem Namibia are currently defined as the upper part of the Karoo Sequence in Namibia and have thus been represented as stratigraphically equivalent to the volcanic rocks of the Karoo Sequence in South Africa, Botswana, Lesotho, Swaziland and Zimbabwe. However, the Etendeka volcanic rocks (130-135 Ma) are considerably younger than those of the Karoo Sequence (180-190 Ma) in the areas mentioned above. They are compositionally distinct from Karoo volcanic rocks, and constitute an eastern portion of the Parana Igneous Province of Brazil. Stratigraphic studies have shown the Etendeka Formation to be made up of several definable volcanic successions and it is suggested that these successions now be formally recognized as Formations within an Etendeka Group which itself should no longer be part of the Karoo Sequence. Prominent quartz latite units and sequences of basalt flows are defined as Members within the new Formations.

Local government and coloured residential segregation in Port Elizabeth, 1964-1976

- Description: preprint , Studies of racial territorial segregation affecting the coloured population in Port Elizabeth tend to perceive it as an outcome of a power struggle between central and local government over the implementation of apartheid legislation. This paper explores the underlying economic forces on the local government to bring about residential segregation and address the coloured housing crisis in the city. It is proposed that whereas central government motives for segregation were primarily political, local government was influenced largely by economic considerations. Local government objectives were severely compromised through both local industrial interests and the implementation of central government Group Areas policies.

- Description: An advanced diplacanthid (Climatiiformes) is described from a Famennian estuarine environment of South Africa. It is characterized by having exceptionally long thin fin spines and a deep body form. Unusual details of the fins and fin spine insertions are preserved. This is the first record of a diplacanthid from the Southern Hemisphere.

- Description: Cyclic voltammetry of OMoV(OH)Pc in chloronaphthalene shows two quasi-reversible oxidation couples at 0.38 and 1.22 V and three quasi-reversible reduction couples at −0.74, −1.15 and −1.85 V vs S.C.E. Bulk electrolysis of OMoV(OH)Pc (Pc2 = phthalocyanine dianion) shows that the first oxidation couple is due to the oxidation of the central MoV metal to MoVI and the first reduction couple due to reduction to OMoIVPc. Cyclic voltammetry and spectroelectrochemistry in DMSO also showed redox activity at the metal. Further reductions or oxidations in OMoVPc complexes occur at the phthalocyanine ring. OMoV(OH)Pc is readily photooxidized at the metal in the presence dichloromethane or dichlorobenzene, with the formation of OMoVIPc species.

- Description: The electrochemistry of RhIII(pc)(pc = phthalocyanine dianion) complexes containing chloride, pyridine, dimethyl sulfoxide (dmso) and cyanide as axial ligands was investigated by cyclic voltammetry and UV/VIS spectroelectrochemistry. The compounds were K[Rh(pc)(CN)2], [Rh(pc)(Cl)(py)] and [Rh(pc)Cl(dmso)]. For all of these the first oxidation occurs at the phthalocyanine ligand with the formation of a π-cation radical species. The addition of one electron to the complexes leads to one of two different reduction products depending on the nature of the axial ligands. The first reduction of [Rh(pc)Cl(py)] and [Rh(pc)Cl(dmso)] occurs at the metal, followed by rapid dimerization of the reduced species. The first and subsequent reductions of K[Rh(pc)(CN)2] occur at the ring.

- Description: The preparation of an Mo(V) tetrasulfophthalocyanine and some of its thermal and photochemical reactions have been investigated in this work. Electrochemical processes have been followed by means of the UVVis spectral changes and compared with those observed in flash photolysis. Mo(IV) and Mo(V)-ligand-radical species are common intermediates of the electrochemical and photochemical reactions. In 254 nm irradiations of the Mo(V) tetrasulfophthalocyanine in aqueous solutions of 2-propanol, the macrocycle can be photohydrogenated and the product of the photolysis can be reoxidized with O2 back to the parent complex.
