Critical temperatures,pressures, and densities for the mixtures CO2–C3H8, CO2–nC4H10, C2H6–C3H8, and C3H8–nC4H10

A simple method is developed to estimate mixture critical temperatures (T_c), pressures (P_c), and densities (ρ_c) as a function of overall composition (X) from near critical region experimental coexistence data. This three-step method is applied to four mixtures, CO₂–C₃H₈, CO₂–nC₄H₁₀, C₂H₆–C₃H₈, and C₃H₈–nC₄H₁₀. Isothermal liquid–vapor coexistence data, which includes temperature, vapor pressure, coexisting densities (ρ^ℓ and ρ^v), and coexisting compositions for the more volatile component (x₁^v and x₁^ℓ) are used. In the first step, the difference of the saturated liquid and vapor densities (ρ^ℓ−ρ^v) is fitted to an empirical function in ((P_c−P)/P_c) to obtain P_c. Then P/P_c and ((ρ^ℓ+ρ^v)/2ρ_c) are simultaneously fitted to functions of a polynomial in (X₁−(x₁^v+x₁^ℓ)/2) yielding estimates of ρ_c and X₁. Finally, the discrete estimated critical data points are fitted with an equation to provide a continuous representation of the critical lines. The method is successfully tested for the mixtures, CO₂–C₃H₈ and CO₂–nC₄H₁₀, for which there is a reasonable amount of isothermal data. The procedure is then applied to the mixtures, C₂H₆–C₃H₈ and C₃H₈–nC₄H₁₀, for which there are sparse data. For all four mixtures, the critical temperature line, T_c vs. X₁, matches literature values within ±0.5%. The critical pressure line, P_c vs. X₁, and critical density line, ρ_c vs. X₁, match literature values, in general, within ±2%.

The Synthesis of the Arene Clusters Ru6C(CO)14(η6-Arene) (Arene = C6H5CHMe2, C6H5C4H9, C6H5C3H7, and C6H5C3H5)

On reaction with Ru₃(CO)₁₂, isopropenylbenzene and 4-phenyl-l-butene undergo hydrogenation, to yield the clusters, Ru₆C(CO)₁₄(⁶-C₆H₅CHMe₂) 1 and Ru₆C(CO)₁₄(⁶-C₆H₅C₄H₉) 2, respectively. With allylbenzene, both hydrogenation and isomerization occurs affording Ru₆C(CO)₁₄(⁶-C₆H₅C₃H₇) 3 and Ru₆C(CO)14(⁶-C₆H₅C₃H₅) 4. The structures of 1 and 2 have been established by single crystal X-ray diffraction. One of the Ru–Ru bond lengths in 2 is unusually long and extended Hückel molecular orbital calculations have been used in an attempt to rationalize this feature.     

Crystal structures, EPR and magnetic properties of 2-ClC6H4CNSSN˙ and 2,5-Cl2C6H3CNSSN˙

The β-sheet structure associated with chlorinated aromatics (d(Cl···Cl)≈ 4.0 ?) has been implemented to drive formation of π-stacked structures of dithiadiazolyl radicals. Both title compounds exhibit an increase in paramagnetism above 150 K but solid-state EPR studies indicate that the origin of the paramagnetism in these two systems is different.     

Interaction parameters and (solid + liquid) equilibria calculation for KCl–H2O–HCl–C2H5OH,K2SO4–H2O–H2SO4 and K2SO4–H2O–C2H5OH mixed solvent-electrolyte systems

This work deals with the prediction and experimental measurements of the (solid + liquid) equilibrium (SLE) in acid medium for industrial purposes. Specific systems including KCl–ethanol–water–HCl and K₂SO₄–water–H₂SO₄ were analyzed. At first, a critical discussion of SLE calculations was given, based on the well-known UNIQUAC extended and LIQUAC models. Two new proposals were derived, considering the explicit necessity of a new reference state for SLE calculations for the studied (solvents + acid) mixtures. The solubility of KCl in water–ethanol–HCl mixed solvents was measured in the temperature range of 300.15 to 315.15 K using an analytical gravimetric method. These results combined with some other experimental data reported in the open literature let us to propose a set of parameters for the new models. They included the interaction parameters between ethanol and the H⁺ ion. The prediction capability of the new models, for calculations in acid medium, was illustrated. Experimentally, it was observed that the (K₂SO₄ + water + H₂SO₄) system presented the unusual behavior of increasing K₂SO₄ solubility with an increase in the sulfuric acid concentration. This was accurately predicted by the newly proposed models.

A systematic density functional and wavefunction-based study on dicarboxyl dianions −O2C–R–CO2 − with R = C2, C2X2, C2X4, and C6X4 (X = H, F)

The possible existence of the gas phase cis- and trans-maleate, i.e. completely deprotonated maleic acid (O₂C–CΗ=CΗ–CO₂)^2–, is investigated by density functional (B3LYP) and ab-initio quantum chemical methods (MP2, CCSD(T)) using large basis sets. The calculations reveal that only the trans-isomer is Coulomb stable with respect to electron loss. The results are compared to other previously investigated dicarboxylate dianions of the general form ^?O₂C–R–CO₂ ^? with R = C₂, C₂X₂, C₂X₄, and C₆X₄ (X = H, F). Fluorine substitution on the carbon framework helps to stabilize these doubly charged systems, and we predict that all of the aromatic fluorine substituted dicarboxylate dianions are Coulomb stable in the gas phase. Only the highest levels of theory reveal the slight stabilization of both the succinate dianion and the ortho-isomer of the phthalic acid dianion in unprecedented agreement with experiments.     

Macro-, Micro-, Nano- and Crystal Structures of a Homodinuclear Complex [NH3（ CH2）3NH3]2{Na2[（C6H4O2）2]（C6H4O2H）2}

A homodinuclear complex （NH3CH2CH2CH2NH3）2 {Na2[（C6H4O2）2] （C6H4O2H）2} （1） has been synthesized by a solution-based self-assembly route. It crystallized in monoclinic system with space group P21/c. Every sodium ion coordinates in a tetragonal prism fashion with two O atoms of a terminal chelating catecholate ligand and three O atoms from two bridging catecholate ligands. Two neighboring NaO5 tetragonal prisms are edge-shared and centrosymmetric with regard to the inversion center to form a binuclear cluster {Na2[（C6H4O2）2]（C6H4OOH）2}^4- anion. The complex anions were aligned parallelly by n-n interaction and linked with the protonated 1,3-propylenediamine through hydrogen bonds which were assembled into a multi-lamellar structure with channels. The crystal exhibits rectangular geometry with an interior triangle hollow structure under optical microscopy. And the scanning electron microscopy （SEM） indicates that the wall of the tubes shows multi-lamella morphologies. Further, the transmission electron microscopy （TEM） reveals that the crystal is composed of multi-lamellar nano-tubes with diameters less than 100 nm. The molecular structure of the complex was compared with that of its isomer complex 2.

The thermal decomposition of the compound was studied by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The FTIR and Raman spectroscopy at different temperatures confirm the existence of vibrational modes that correspond to the organic, inorganic and water molecular groups. Additionally, the UV–Vis diffuse reflectance spectrum was recorded in order to investigate the band gap nature. The measurements show that this compound exhibits a semiconducting behavior with an optical band gap of 2.66 eV.

In the structure of I π-complex, the centrosymmetric Cu₈Cl₁₀ fragments are associated into layers perpendicular to the b axis. The N,N"-diallylmorpholinium cation functions as a bridge, which coordinates two copper atom of the adjacent inorganic fragments by both allyl groups. The trigonal-pyramidal surrounding of the Cu(I) atom, as well as the distorted tetrahedral coordination sphere of Cu(2), involves three chlorine atoms and the C=C bond, whereas the planar trigonal surrounding of the Cu(3) atom and trigonal-pyramidal surrounding of the Cu(4) atom involve only chlorine atoms. In the isostructural II and III σ-complexes, the edge-shared CuX₄ tetrahedra form the infinite copper-halide chains running along the a axis. The inorganic fragments and organic N-allylmorpholinium cations are united into the three-dimensional crystal structures by N–H···X and C–H···X (X = Cl, Br) hydrogen bonds.
