Study of series of the M1,M2‖F,Cl,Br quaternary reciprocal systems (M1 and M2 are group 1 s-block elements)

Quaternary reciprocal systems of alkali metal fluorides, chlorides, and bromides were partitioned into simplexes by a geometric method and a graph method. Phase transformations and chemical reactions in the bordering ternary reciprocal systems were described. Conversion lines were experimentally studied, and information on crystallizing phases within the composition prisms of the M₁,M₂‖F,Cl,Br systems (M₁ and M₂ are group 1 s-block elements) was obtained.

Theoretical unimolecular kinetics for CH4 + M ⇄ CH3 + H + M in eight baths, M = He, Ne, Ar, Kr, H2, N2, CO, and CH4

Ensembles of classical trajectories are used to study collisional energy transfer in highly vibrationally excited CH(4) for eight bath gases. Several simplifying assumptions for the CH(4) + M interaction potential energy surface are tested against full dimensional direct dynamics trajectory calculations for M = He, Ne, and H(2). The calculated energy transfer averages are confirmed to be sensitive to the shape of the repulsive wall of the intermolecular potential, with an exponential repulsive wall required for quantitative predictions. For the diatomic baths, the usual "separable pairwise" approximation for the interaction potential is unable to describe the orientation dependence of the interaction potential accurately, and the ambiguity in the resulting parametrizations contributes an additional uncertainty to the predicted energy transfer averages of 20-40%. On the other hand, the energy transfer averages are shown to be insensitive to the level of theory used to describe the intramolecular CH(4) potential, with a computationally efficient semiempirical tight binding potential for hydrocarbons performing equally well as an MP2 potential. The relative collisional energy transfer efficiencies of the eight bath gases are discussed and shown to be a function of temperature. The ensemble-averaged energy transferred in deactivating collisions <ΔE(d)> for each bath is used to parametrize a single-exponential-down model for collisional energy transfer in master equation calculations. The predicted decomposition rate coefficients for CH(4) agree well with available experimental rate coefficients for M = He, Ar, Kr, and CH(4). The effect of vibrational anharmonicity on the predicted rate coefficients is considered briefly.

Phases in the System Ba2M2-xCuxO4+δ, M = In,Sc: Structure and Oxygen Stoichiometry

Members of the series Ba₂M_2-x,Cu_x O_4+δ, M = In, Sc (0 ≤ x ≤ 1), have been synthesised by solid-state reaction methods and products characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (PXD). Selected compounds have been annealed under oxygen at 1 atm and oxygen stoichiometries for unannealed and oxygen annealed samples have been calculated following thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). Structures for M = In, x = 0, 0.5, 1 and M = Sc, x = 1 were determined by Rietveld analysis of PXD data. Ba₂In₂O₅ has been shown to crystallize in the orthorhombic space group Ibm2 (Brownmillerite structure) with a = 6.0956(1) Å, b = 16.7112(3) Å c = 5.9601(1) Å. The copper-containing phases adopt a tetragonal "doubled perovskite" structure built up of copper-substituted BaInO_2.5 cubes. The copper coordination and oxidation state can be controlled by varying the oxygen level of the structure.     

CaBa2Cu2FeO6 Phase: Synthesis, Structure, and Mössbauer Spectra

A new phase CaBa₂Cu₂FeO₆ was synthesized by the ceramic procedure (vacuum, 930°C) from Ca₂Fe₂O₅ and BaCuO₂ intermediates. The phase is tetragonal and has a 123 structure with unit cell parameters a = b = 0.4089(3) nm, c = 1.2330(8) nm. Based on the Mössbauer data it is concluded that the iron atoms are in the Fe(3+) state and occupy only the Cu(2) sites, i.e., have tetragonal pyramidal surroundings.     

M(CN)(2) Species (M = Be, Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba): Cyanides, Nitriles, or Neither?

The "cyanide" salts of the group 2 (alkaline earth) metals exhibit remarkable structural variations: CN(-) binds to the metals via the carbon, via the nitrogen, and via bridged arrangements. The most stable geometries of the beryllium and the magnesium salts are linear (CNBeNC and NCMgCN, respectively), but CaC(2)N(2), SrC(2)N(2), and BaC(2)N(2) prefer twisted, bridged structures. However, several stationary points of the bridged complexes are close in energy, and considerable fluxionality is to be expected. These theoretical predictions (MP4SDTQ/6-311+G(2d)//MP2(fu)/6-31+G, Ca, Sr, Ba: 5s5p3d1f//5s5p3d basis sets and 10 valence electron pseudopotentials) invite experimental verification.     

Pulse radiolysis study of energy transfer processes in Xe–M mixtures (M=CH2F2,CHF3,CHF2Cl,CHFCl2 and CF3Cl)

The time-resolved spectroscopy measurements were used to study the kinetics of energy transfer process in the pulse radiolysis of xenon- fluoro- and chlorofluoromethanes mixtures. The main channel, at xenon pressure above 40 Torr, seems to be of third order, while at lower xenon pressures the second order process was the main one.

Theoretical studies of the reactions of M+ (M = Ta,W, Re) with CS2

Gas-phase CS₂ activation by M⁺ (M = Ta, W, Re) was studied by the B3LYP density functional method.The geometries for reactants, transition states, and products were completely optimized. CS₂ activation mediated by M⁺ (M = Ta, W, Re) were found to be a spin-forbidden process as a result of the crossing among the multistate energetic profiles. On the basis of the Hammond postulate, this was a typical two-state reactivity reaction. Among the different potential energy surfaces, the crossing points had been explored. The spin–orbit coupling (SOC) was also calculated between the electronic states of different multiplicities at the crossing point to estimate the intersystem crossing probability. For CP1, CP2, and CP4, the computed SOC constants were 80.28, 128.65, and 526.77 cm^?1, which obtained by using one-electron spin–orbit Hamiltonian in Gaussian 09.     

Li-storage and cycling properties of Sn–Sb-mixed oxides, (M1/2Sb1/2Sn)O4, M = In, Fe

The mixed oxide compounds, (M_1/2Sb_1/2Sn)O₄, M = In and Fe are prepared by the high-temperature solid-state reaction, at 800 °C for M = In and at 1,150 °C for M = Fe. High-energy ballmilling is used to reduce the particle size to nm-range. The compounds are characterized by X-ray diffraction, Rietveld refinement, scanning electron microscopy, and Brunauer–Emmett–Teller surface area methods. The Li-storage and cycling properties of the bare and ballmilled compounds are evaluated by galvanostatic cycling at ~0.15 C and in the voltage ranges 0.005–1.0 and 0.005–1.2 V vs. Li up to 50 (or 100) cycles and by cyclic voltammetry (CV) at room temperature. Effect of electrode heat treatment and carbon nanotube (CNT) addition is also studied. Initial reversible capacities in the range 425–550 mAh g^?1 are observed depending on the metal (M) upper cut-off voltage, CNT content and electrode heat treatment. Ballmilled (In_1/2Sb_1/2Sn)O₄ showed a stable capacity of 445 mAh g^-1 up to 30 cycles and 5 % capacity fading after 50 cycles. In all other cases, capacity fading is observed ranging from 9 to 60 %. The CV showed that the main cathodic and anodic peaks occur at 0.15–0.25 V and ~0.5 V vs. Li, respectively, for both M. The reaction mechanism involves alloying–de-alloying reactions of Sn and In with Li₃Sb or Fe acting as conducting matrix, and corroborated by the ex-situ X-ray diffraction data on (In_1/2Sb_1/2Sn)O₄.
