Environmental policy of the United States Environmental Protection Agency, were people with a history of opposition to the agency they were named to head. Since the environmental movement of the 1970s, the nature of environmental issues has changed. While the initial emphasis was on conventional air and water pollutants, which were the most obvious and easily measurable problems, newer issues are long-term problems that are not easily discernible and can be surrounded by controversy. Acid deposition, in the form of acid rain and dry deposition, is the result of sulfur and nitrogen dioxide being emitted into the air, traveling and landing in a different place, and
Metal sulfur dioxide complex Metal sulfur dioxide complex Metal sulfur dioxide complexes are complexes that contain sulfur dioxide, SO, bonded to a transition metal. Such compounds are common but are mainly of theoretical interest. Historically, the study of these compounds has provided insights into the mechanisms of migratory insertion reactions in organometallic chemistry. Sulfur dioxide forms complexes with many transition metals. For the most stable complex the metal is in oxidation state 0 or +1. In most cases SO binds in monodentate fashion, attaching to the metal through sulfur. Such complexes are further subdivided according to the planarity or pyramidalization at sulfur. The various
