Synthese und Struktur von Hydrogensulfaten des Typs M(HSO4)(H2SO4) (M = Rb,Cs und NH4)

Synthesis and Structure of Hydrogen Sulfates of the Type M(HSO₄)(H₂SO₄) (M = Rb, Cs and NH₄) From the binary systems M₂SO₄/H₂SO₄ (M = Rb, Cs, NH₄), three new hydrogen sulfates of the type M(HSO₄)(H₂SO₄) could be synthesized and structural characterized. The rubidium and caesium compounds are isotypic whereas NH₄(HSO₄)(H₂SO₄) is topologically very similar to both. All three compounds crystallize with nearly identical cell parameters [Rb: a = 7.382(1), b = 12.440(2), c = 7.861(2), β = 93.03(3); Cs: a = 7.604(1), b = 12.689(2), c = 8.092(2), β = 92.44(3); NH₄: a = 7.521(3), b = 12.541(5), c = 7.749(3), β = 92.74(3)], in the monoclinic space group P2₁/c, There exist two kinds of SO₄-tetrahedra: HSO₄^? anions (S1) and H₂SO₄-molecules (S2). The HSO₄^? anions form hydrogen bridged zigzag chains. In the case of the Rb and Cs compounds, the H₂SO₄ molecules connect these chains forming double layers. The metal atoms are coordinated by 9 O-atoms with M? O-distances of 2.97 – 3.39 Å (Rb) and 3.13 – 3.51 Å (Cs). In the ammonium compound additional hydrogen bonds are formed originating from the NH₄⁺ cation. This finally leads to the formation of S2? NH₄⁺ chains (parallel to the S1 chains) as well as to a three-dimensional connection of both kinds of chains.     

A whole zoo of hydrogen bonds in one crystal structure: tris(isonicotinium) hydrogensulfate sulfate monohydrate

Depending on the reaction partner, the organic ditopic molecule isonicotinic acid (Hina) can act either as a Brønsted acid or base. With sulfuric acid, the pyridine ring is protonated to become a pyridinium cation. Crystallization from ethanol affords the title compound tris(4‐carboxypyridinium) hydrogensulfate sulfate monohydrate, 3C₆H₆NO₂⁺·HSO₄⁻·SO₄²⁻·H₂O or [(H₂ina)₃(HSO₄)(SO₄)(H₂O)]. This solid contains 11 classical hydrogen bonds of very different flavour and nonclassical C—H…O contacts. All N—H and O—H donors find at least one acceptor within a suitable distance range, with one of the three pyridinium H atoms engaged in bifurcated N—H…O hydrogen bonds. The shortest hydrogen‐bonding O…O distance is subtended by hydrogensulfate and sulfate anions, viz. 2.4752 (19) Å, and represents one of the shortest hydrogen bonds ever reported between these residues.     

A theoretical study of the H2SO4+H2O → HSO4 −+H3O+ reaction at the surface of aqueous aerosols

The surface region of sulfate aerosols (supercooled aqueous concentrated sulfuric acid solutions) is the likely site of a number of important heterogeneous reactions in various locations in the atmosphere, but the surface region ionic composition is not known. As a first step in exploring this issue, the first acid ionization reaction for sulfuric acid, H₂SO₄ + H₂O HSO₄^– + H₃O⁺, is studied via electronic structure calculations at the Hartree–Fock level on an H₂SO₄ molecule embedded in the surface region of a cluster containing 33 water molecules. An initial H₂SO₄ configuration is selected which could produce H₃O⁺ readily available for heterogeneous reactions, but which involves reduced solvation and is consistent with no dangling OH bonds for H₂SO₄. It is found that at 0 K and with zero-point energy included, the proton transfer is endothermic by 3.4 kcal/mol. This result is discussed in the context of reactions on sulfate aerosol surfaces and, further, more complex calculations.Contribution to the Jacopo Tomasi Honorary Issue     

Saure Sulfate des Neodyms: Synthese und Kristallstruktur von (H5O2)(H3O)2Nd(SO4)3 und (H3O)2Nd(HSO4)3SO4

Acidic Sulfates of Neodymium: Synthesis and Crystal Structure of (H₅O₂)(H₃O)₂Nd(SO₄)₃ and (H₃O)₂Nd(HSO₄)₃SO₄ Light violett single crystals of (H₅O₂)(H₃O)₂ · Nd(SO₄)₃ are obtained by cooling of a solution prepared by dissolving neodymium oxalate in sulfuric acid (80%). According to X‐ray single crystal investigations there are H₃O⁺ ions and H₅O₂⁺ ions present in the monoclinic structure (P2₁/n, Z = 4, a = 1159.9(4), b = 710.9(3), c = 1594.7(6) pm, β = 96.75(4)°, R_all = 0.0260). Nd³⁺ is nine‐coordinate by oxygen atoms. The same coordination number is found for Nd³⁺ in the crystal structure of (H₃O)₂Nd(HSO₄)₃SO₄ (triclinic, P1, Z = 2, a = 910.0(1), b = 940.3(1), c = 952.6(1) pm, α = 100.14(1)°, β = 112.35(1)°, γ = 105.01(1)°, R_all = 0.0283). The compound has been prepared by the reaction of Nd₂O₃ with chlorosulfonic acid in the presence of air. In the crystal structure both sulfate and hydrogensulfate groups occur. In both compounds pronounced hydrogen bonding is observed.     

Synthese und Kristallstruktur von Hydrogensulfaten einwertiger Metalle – Ag(H3O)(HSO4)2, Ag2(HSO4)2(H2SO4), AgHSO4 und Hg2(HSO4)2

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of Metal(I) Hydrogen Sulfates – Ag(H₃O)(HSO₄)₂, Ag₂(HSO₄)₂(H₂SO₄), AgHSO₄, and Hg₂(HSO₄)₂ Hydrogen sulfates Ag(H₃O)(HSO₄)₂, Ag₂(HSO₄)₂ · (H₂SO₄), and AgHSO₄ have been synthesized from Ag₂SO₄ and sulfuric acid. Hg₂(HSO₄)₂ was obtained from metallic mercury and 96% sulfuric acid as starting materials. The compounds were characterized by X‐ray single crystal structure determination. Ag(H₃O)(HSO₄)₂ belongs to the structure type of Na(H₃O)(HSO₄). The silver atom is coordinated by 6 + 2 oxygen atoms. In the structure, there are dimers and chains of hydrogen bonded HSO₄^– tetrahedra. Dimers and chains are connected by the H₃O⁺ ion to form a three dimensional hydrogen network. Ag₂(HSO₄)₂(H₂SO₄) crystallizes isotypic to Na₂(HSO₄)₂(H₂SO₄). The coordination number of silver is 6 + 1. The structure of Ag₂(HSO₄)₂(H₂SO₄) is characterized by hydrogen bonded trimers of HSO₄^– tetrahedra, which are further connected to chains. For the recently published structure of AgHSO₄ the hydrogen bonding system was discussed. There are tetrameres and chains, connected by bifurcated hydrogen bonds. The structure of Hg₂(HSO₄)₂ contains Hg₂²⁺ cations with Hg–Hg distance of 2.509 Å. Every mercury atom is coordinated by one oxygen atom at shorter distance (2.18 Å) and three ones at longer distances (2.57 to 3.08 Å). The HSO₄^– tetrahedra form zigzag chains by hydrogen bonds.     

Integral heats of solution and enthalpies of ionization of 100% nitric acid at 298 K 3. Aqueous solutions of sulfuric acid containing 70–90% H2SO4 and ionization of HNO3 as a base

The integral heats of solution of 100% HNO₃ at =0.1mole/liter in aqueous solutions of H₂SO₄ of <90% by wt. were measured. A scheme was proposed and proved for ionization of HNO₃ as a base in 82–90% aqueous solutions of H₂SO₄, according to which un-ionized HNO₃ exists in the form of an aqueous solvate H₂O-HNO₃ and the ionized form as the ion pair NO₂ ⁺·HSO₄ ^–. The value of the enthalpy of ionization of nitric acid H(NO₂ ⁺ HSO₄ ^–)=H(NO₂ ⁺·HSO₄ ^–) drops from 2.05 at 89.99% H₂SO₄ to 0.18 kcal/mole in 84.07% H₂SO₄.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 2, pp. 306–310, February, 1990.     

Proton affinity of SO3

Collision-induced dissociation (CID) of the radical cation H₂SO₄⁺ gives the product pairs H₂O⁺+SO₃ and HO+HSO₃⁺ with a 1:3 ratio that is essentially independent of collision energy. Statistical analysis of the two channels indicates that the proton affinity of HO is 3±4 kJ/mol lower than that of SO₃. This can be used to derive PA(SO₃)=591±4 kJ/mol at 0 K and 596±4 kJ/mol at 298 K. Previously, Munson and Smith bracketed the proton affinity as PA(HBr)=584 kJ/mol<PA(SO₃)<PA(CO)=594 kJ/mol. The threshold of 152±16 kJ/mol for formation of H₂O⁺+SO₃ indicates that the barrier to CID is small or nonexistent, in contrast to the substantial barriers to decomposition for H₃SO₄⁺ and H₂SO₄.     

Reaction with SO3 in Ionic Liquids: The Example of K2(S2O7)­(H2SO4)

The ionic liquid 1‐butyl‐3‐methylimidazolium hydrogensulfate, [bmim]HSO₄, turned out to be resistant even to strong oxidizers like SO₃. Thus, it should be a suitable solvent for the preparation of polysulfates at low temperatures. As a proof of principle we here present the synthesis and crystal structure of K₂(S₂O₇)(H₂SO₄), which has been obtained from the reaction of K₂SO₄ and SO₃ in [bmim]HSO₄. In the crystal structure of K₂(S₂O₇)(H₂SO₄) (orthorhombic, Pbca, Z = 8, a = 810.64(2) pm, b = 1047.90(2) pm, c = 2328.86(6) pm, V = 1978.30(8) ų) two crystallographically unique potassium cations are coordinated by a different number of monodentate and bidentate‐chelating disulfate anions as well as by sulfuric acid molecules. The crystal structure consists of alternating layers of [K₂(S₂O₇)] slabs and H₂SO₄ molecules. Hydrogen bonds between hydrogen atoms of sulfuric acid molecules and oxygen atoms of the neighboring disulfate anions are observed.     

Syntheses,Structural Characterization,Reactivity, and Theoretical Studies on Some Heteroligand Oxoperoxotungstate(VI)

White microcrystalline diamagnetic oxoperoxotungstate(VI) complexes K[WO(O₂)₂F]·H₂O, K₂[WO(O₂)₂(CO₃)]·H₂O, [WO(O₂)(SO₄)(H₂O)₂] have been synthesized from reaction of Na₂WO₄·2H₂O with aqueous HF, solid KHCO₃, aqueous H₂SO₄ (W:F⁻ 1:3; W: CO₃ ^{2 −} 1:1; and W: SO₄ ^{2 −} 1:3), and an excess of 30% H₂O₂ at pH 7.5–8. Precipitation was completed by the addition of precooled acetone. The occurrence of terminal WO and triangular bidentate O₂ ^{2 −}(C _{2 v} ) in the synthesized compounds was ascertained from IR spectra. The IR spectra also suggested that the F⁻ and SO₄ ^{2 −} ions in K[WO(O₂)₂F]·H₂O and [WO(O₂)(SO₄)(H₂O)₂] were bonded to the WO ⁺⁴ center in monodentate manner, while CO₃ ^{2 −} ion in K₂[WO(O₂)₂(CO₃)]·H₂O binds the metal center in bidentate chelating fashion. The complex [WO(O₂)(SO₄)(H₂O)₂] is stable upto 110°C. The water molecule in [WO(O₂)(SO₄)(H₂O)₂] is coordinated to the WO ⁺⁴ center, whereas it occurs as water of crystallization in the corresponding peroxo(fluoro) and peroxo(carbonato) compounds. Mass spectra of the compounds are in good agreement with the molecular formulae of the complexes. K₂[WO(O₂)₂(CO₃)]·H₂O acts as an oxidant for bromide in the aqueous‐phase bromination of organic substrates to the corresponding bromo‐organics, and the complex also oxidizes Hantzsch‐1,4‐dihydropyridine to the corresponding pyridine derivative in excellent yield at room temperature. Density functional theory computation was carried out to compute the frequencies of relevant vibrational modes and electronic properties, and the results are in agreement with the experimentally obtained data.     

Osmium(VIII) mediated oxidation of mercury(I) by cerium(IV) in aqueous sulphuric acid – a kinetic and mechanistic study

The oxidation of Hg^I by Ce^IV has been studied in aqueous H₂SO₄. A minute amount (10^–6 mol dm^–3) of Os^VIII is sufficient to catalyse the reaction. The active catalyst, substrate and oxidant species are H₂OsO₅, [Hg₂(SO₄)HSO₄]^– and H₃Ce(SO₄)^– ₄, respectively. Possible mechanisms are proposed and the reaction constants involved have been determined.     

Kinetics of Sulfur Oxide, Sulfur Fluoride, and Sulfur Oxyfluoride Anions with Ozone

Rate constants and product branching ratios were measured for eleven sulfur oxide, sulfur fluoride, and sulfur oxyfluoride anions reacting with O₃. The SO^– ₂ ion reacts rapidly to form –O^– ₃, SO^– ₃, and e^–. The temperature dependence of the branching ratio shows more reactive detachment and less SO^– ₃ formation at higher temperature. SO^– ₃ reacts with O₃, forming SO^– ₄ at 1/3 to 1/4 of the collisional rate from 200 to 500 K, respectively. At 300 K, SF^– ₆ charge transfers to O₃ at 20% of the collisional rate. F₂SO^– ₂ reacts with O₃ at a few percent of the collision rate, forming both O^– ₃ and FSO^– ₃; The ion F₃SO^– reacts slowly with O₃ to form F₃SO^– ₂. The ions SO^– ₄, SF^– ₅, FSO^– ₂, FSO^– ₃, F₃SO^–, and F₅SO^– are unreactive with O₃. A trend is noted relating the ion reactivity with the coordination of the central sulfur atom, i.e., the number of S–F bonds plus two times the number of S=O bonds. Only ions with a sulfur coordination of 4 or 6 are reactive, although the reaction rate constants are generally small. The reactivity trends appear to be partially explained by spin conservation. These reactions are all sufficiently slow, so O₃ reactions should not play a major role in SF₆/O₂ discharges. All ions studied have been found to be unreactive with O₂.     

Effect of desolvation of the reactants during change in the acidity of the medium on the electrophilic hydroxylation and nitration of alkanes

The effect of the acidity of the medium on the hydroxylation and nitration of alkanes (RH) in 90–98% H₂SO₄ at 25°C is described quantitatively by a model taking account of the thermodynamic activity of the RH, H₂O, and HSO₄^- particles. It was concluded that in the transition states the reagents H₃O₂⁺HSO₄^- and NO₂⁺ HSO₄^- are present as HO⁺ and NO₂⁺ ions without the bases H–O and HSO₄^-, the alkanes are present without hydrophobic shells, and the initial reaction products are ROH₂⁺ and RNO₂H⁺.     

Effects of SO 4 2− , S2O 3 2− and HSO 4 − ion additives on the pitting corrosion of pure aluminium in 1 M NaCl solution at 40–70 °C

Effects of sulphate (SO₄^2–), thiosulphate (S₂O₃^2–) and hydrogensulphate (HSO₄^–) ion additives on the pitting corrosion of pure aluminium in 1 M NaCl solution have been investigated at various solution temperatures T_s, 40–70 °C using potentiodynamic polarisation experiment, double current step experiment and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). From the analysis of the galvanostatic potential transients obtained from the double current step experiment, it was suggested that both SO₄^2– and S₂O₃^2– ions retard the initiation of the etch pits, and that they also inhibit the passivation of the etch pits during the current interruption to promote the subsequent re-activation of the etch pits over the whole range of T_s. In contrast, it was found that HSO₄^– ions promote the initiation of the etch pits and at the same time, they enhance the passivation of the etch pits during the current interruption with rising T_s. From the SEM micrographs, it was revealed that as T_s increased the pit morphology changed from circular shape to irregular shape with rough surface in the presence of SO₄^2– or S₂O₃^2– ions, but it changed to strip-like shape in the presence of HSO₄^– ions. The beneficial effects of anion additives on the increase in surface area were discussed on the basis of the morphological change of the etch pits in the presence of anion additives.     

Crystal Structure of the Ca2+ Supramolecular Complex with Cucurbituryl {[Ca(H2O)3(HSO4)(CH3OH)]2(C36N24O12H36)}(HSO4)2 · 4H2O

The calcium(II) supramolecular complex with cucurbituryl of composition {[Ca(H₂O)₃(HSO₄)(CH₃OH)]₂(C₃₆N₂₄O₁₂H₃₆)}(HSO₄)₂ · 4H₂O is obtained by slow diffusion of methanol into a calcium(II) solution in 2 M H₂SO₄; its crystal structure is determined by X-ray diffraction analysis. The crystals are triclinic, a = 10.4030(9) Å, b = 11.936(1) Å, c = 15.119(1) Å, = 69.829(6)°, = 72.019(5)°, = 70.171(7)°, V = 1618.1(2) ų, space group P , Z = 1, _calcd = 1.754 g/cm³. The crystal structure is a pseudohexagonal packing of {[Ca(H₂O)₃(HSO₄)(CH₃OH)]₂(C₃₆N₂₄O₁₂H₃₆)}²⁺ cylinders shifted by half translation along the a axis. The cylinders are linked via hydrogen bonds, with the crystallization water molecules and HSO^– ₄ anions arranged in the channels.     

Synthese und Struktur neuer Natriumhydrogensulfate Na(H3O)(HSO4)2; Na2(HSO4)2(H2SO4) und Na(HSO4)(H2SO4)2

Synthesis and Structure of New Sodium Hydrogen Sulfates Na(H₃O)(HSO₄)₂, Na₂(HSO₄)₂(H₂SO₄), and Na(HSO₄)(H₂SO₄)₂ Three acidic sodium sulfates have been synthesized from the system sodium sulfate/sulfuric acid and have been crystallographically characterized. Na(H₃O)(HSO₄)₂ ( A ) crystallizes in the space group P2₁/c with the unit cell parameters a = 6.974(2), b = 13.086(2), c = 8.080(3) Å, α = 105.90(4)°, V = 709.1 Å3, Z = 4. Na₂(HSO₄)₂(H₂SO₄) ( B ) is orthorhombic (space group Pna2₁) with the unit cell parameters a = 9.970(2), b = 6.951(1), c = 13.949(3) Å, V = 966.7 ų and Z = 4. Na(HSO₄)(H₂SO₄)₂ ( C ) crystallizes in the triclinic space group P1 with the unit cell parameters a = 5.084(1), b = 8.746(1), c = 11.765(3) Å, α = 68.86(2)°, β = 88.44(2)°, γ = 88.97(2)°, V = 487.8 Å3 and Z = 2. All three compounds contain SO₄ tetrahedra as HSO₄^? anions and additionally in B and C in form of H₂SO₄ molecules. The ratio H:SO₄ determines the connectivity degree in the hydrogen bond system. In A , there are zigzag chains and dimers additionally connected via oxonium ions. Complex chains consisting of cyclic trimers (two HSO₄^? and one H₂SO₄) are present in B . In structure C , several parallel chains are connected to columns due to the greater content of H₂SO₄. Sodium cations show a distorted octahedral coordination by oxygen in all three structures, the NaO₆ octahedra being “isolated” (connected via SO₄ tetrahedra only) in A . Pairs of octahedra with common edge form Na₂O₁₀ dimeric units in C . Such double octahedra are connected via common corners forming zigzag chains in B .

A series of derivatives of the types [Co(diph·H)₂(SO₃)X] ^n– (X=N₃ ^–, S₂O₃ ^2– oramine) and [Co(diph·H)₂(S₂O₃)₂]^3– were described and characterized. Some structural problems are resolved and discussed on the basis of UV and IR spectral data.     

A pseudo‐merohedrally twinned rare‐earth sulfate: K6[Ce(HSO4)2(SO4)4]·H2O,a novel structure type

A novel structure type of an acidic rare‐earth sulfate, hexa­potassium cerium dihydrogensulfate tetra­sulfate monohydrate, is reported. The crystal is twinned, mimicking tetra­gonal symmetry. The Ce^IV atom is nine‐coordinate, connecting to one corner‐sharing and four edge‐sharing sulfate groups. One of the potassium ions is disordered over two general positions. The compound is unique as it contains rare‐earth monomers, [Ce(HSO₄)(SO₄)₄]⁵⁻. The structure is composed of these monomers, water mol­ecules, discrete hydrogensulfate ions and potassium ions held together by ionic inter­actions. There are two types of alternating layers in the structure, with compositions [K₄Ce(HSO₄)(SO₄)₄]⁻ and [K₂(HSO₄)(H₂O)]⁺.     

Semi-empirical calculations on the structure of the oxonium ion in various crystal sites and relative acidity scale

The structure of the H₃O⁺ ion embedded in a solid environment (H₃O⁺X^–, X^– = Cl^–, NO ₃ ^– , ClO ₄ ^– ) is studied using a modified version of CNDO/2. In this calculation the effect of the first shells of nearest neighbours is taken into account and the effects of second nearest neighbours are introduced by a simulation procedure. Electronic effects are also included. The ion structure is more planar in nitrate than in perchlorate environment and the hydrogen bonds are slightly bent. Trends in structural parameters are compared with chemical properties of the hydrogen bonds and parallels the Hammett acidity scale HNO₃ < HCl < HClO₄.     

Sulfate und Hydrogensulfate des Erbiums: Er(HSO4)3-I,Er(HSO4)3-II,Er(SO4)(HSO4) und Er2(SO4)3

Sulfates and Hydrogensulfates of Erbium: Er(HSO₄)₃-I, Er(HSO₄)₃-II, Er(SO₄)(HSO₄), and Er₂(SO₄)₃ Rod shaped light pink crystals of Er(HSO₄)₃-I (orthorhombic, Pbca, a = 1195.0(1) pm, b = 949.30(7) pm, c = 1644.3(1) pm) grow from a solution of Er₂(SO₄)₃ in conc. H₂SO₄ at 250 °C. From slightly diluted solutions (85%) which contain Na₂SO₄, brick shaped light pink crystals of Er(HSO₄)₃-II (monoclinic, P2₁/n, a = 520.00(5) pm, b = 1357.8(1) pm, c = 1233.4(1) pm, β = 92.13(1)°) were obtained at 250 °C and crystals of the same colour of Er(SO₄)(HSO₄) (monoclinic, P2₁/n, a = 545.62(6) pm, b = 1075.6(1) pm, c = 1053.1(1) pm, β = 104.58(1)°) at 60 °C. In both hydrogensulfates, Er³⁺ is surrounded by eight oxygen atoms. In Er(HSO₄)₃-I layers of HSO₄^– groups are connected only via hydrogen bridges, while Er(HSO₄)₃-II consists of a threedimensional polyhedra network. In the crystal structure of Er(SO₄)(HSO₄) Er³⁺ is sevenfold coordinated by oxygen atoms, which belong to four SO₄^2–- and three HSO₄^–-tetrahedra, respectively. The anhydrous sulfate, Er₂(SO₄)₃, cannot be prepared from H₂SO₄ solutions but crystallizes from a NaCl-melt. The coordination number of Er³⁺ in Er₂(SO₄)₃ (orthorhombic, Pbcn, a = 1270.9(1) pm, b = 913.01(7) pm, c = 921.67(7) pm) is six. The octahedral coordinationpolyhedra are connected via all vertices to the SO₄^2–-tetrahedra.     

Kinetic studies on the electron transfer between sulphur(IV) and an iron(III) oxime–imine complex

Electron transfer between [Fe^III(L²)]⁺ and sulphur(IV) has been proposed to proceed via an inner-sphere mechanism involving formation of a transient hydrogen-bonded intermediate between the acidic proton of SO₂ · xH₂O/HSO₃ ^– and the oximato oxygen of the coordinated ligand, providing the ready availability of the proton for the reduced complex. In the case of SO₃ ^2–, this is not possible and the reaction is believed to proceed via an outer-sphere scheme.
