Structure and properties of single crystalline CaMg2Bi2, EuMg2Bi2, and YbMg2Bi2

Single crystals of CaMg(2)Bi(2), EuMg(2)Bi(2), and YbMg(2)Bi(2) were obtained from a Mg-Bi flux cooled to 650 °C. These materials crystallize in the CaAl(2)Si(2) structure-type (P ?3m1, No. 164), and crystal structures are reported from refinements of single crystal and powder X-ray diffraction data. EuMg(2)Bi(2) displays an antiferromagnetic transition near 7 K, which is observed via electrical resistivity, magnetization, and specific heat capacity measurements. Magnetization measurements on YbMg(2)Bi(2) reveal a weak diamagnetic moment consistent with divalent Yb. Despite charge-balanced empirical formulas, all three compounds are p-type conductors with Hall carrier concentrations of 2.0(3) × 10(19) cm(-3) for CaMg(2)Bi(2), 1.7(1) × 10(19) cm(-3) for EuMg(2)Bi(2), and 4.6(7) × 10(19) cm(-3) for YbMg(2)Bi(2), which are independent of temperature to 5 K. The electrical resistivity decreases with decreasing temperature and the resistivity ratios ρ(300 K)/ρ(10 K) ≤ 1.6 in all cases, indicating significant defect scattering.     

Crystal Structures of [Bu2Sn(O2PPh2)2], [Ph2Sn(O2PPh2)2], and [PhClSn(O2PPh2)OMe]2. Raman Spectra of [Ph2Sn(O2PPh2)2] and [PhClSn(O2PPh2)OMe]2

[(n‐Bu)₂Sn(O₂PPh₂)₂] ( 1 ), and [Ph₂Sn(O₂PPh₂)₂] ( 2 ) have been synthesized by the reactions of R₂SnCl₂ (R=n‐Bu, Ph) with HO₂PPh₂ in Methanol. From the reaction of Ph₂SnCl₂ with diphenylphosphinic acid a third product [PhClSn(O₂PPh₂)OMe]₂ ( 3 ) could be isolated. X‐ray diffraction studies show 1 to crystallize in the monoclinic space group P2₁/c with a = 1303.7(1) pm, b = 2286.9(2) pm, c = 1063.1(1) pm, β = 94.383(6)°, and Z = 4. 2 crystallizes triclinic in the space group , the cell parameters being a = 1293.2(2) pm, b = 1478.5(4) pm, c = 1507.2(3) pm, α = 98.86(3)°, β = 109.63(2)°, γ = 114.88(2)°, and Z = 2. Both compounds form arrays of eight‐membered rings (SnOPO)₂ linked at the tin atoms to form chains of infinite length. The dimer 3 consists of a like ring, in which the tin atoms are bridged by methoxo groups. It crystallizes triclinic in space group with a = 946.4(1) pm, b = 963.7(1) pm, c = 1174.2(1) pm, α = 82.495(6)°, β = 66.451(6)°, γ = 74.922(6)°, and Z = 1 for the dimer. The Raman spectra of 2 and 3 are given and discussed.     

A systematic computational study of the reactions of HO2 with RO2: the HO2 + CH2ClO2, CHCl2O2, and CCl3O2 reactions

Potential energy surfaces for the reactions of HO(2) with CH(2)ClO(2), CHCl(2)O(2), and CCl(3)O(2) have been calculated using coupled cluster theory and density functional theory (B3LYP). It is revealed that all the reactions take place on both singlet and triplet surfaces. Potential wells exist in the entrance channels for both surfaces. The reaction mechanism on the triplet surface is simple, including hydrogen abstraction and S(N)2-type displacement. The reaction mechanism on the singlet surface is more complicated. Interestingly, the corresponding transition states prefer to be 4-, 5-, or 7-member-ring structures. For the HO(2) + CH(2)ClO(2) reaction, there are two major product channels, viz., the formation of CH(2)ClOOH + O(2) via hydrogen abstraction on the triplet surface and the formation of CHClO + OH + HO(2) via a 5-member-ring transition state. Meanwhile, two O(3)-forming channels, namely, CH(2)O + HCl + O(3) and CH(2)ClOH + O(3) might be competitive at elevated temperatures. The HO(2) + CHCl(2)O(2) reaction has a mechanism similar to that of the HO(2) + CH(2)ClO(2) reaction. For the HO(2) + CCl(3)O(2) reaction, the formation of CCl(3)O(2)H + O(2) is the dominant channel. The Cl-substitution effect on the geometries, barriers, and heats of reaction is discussed. In addition, the unimolecular decomposition of the excited ROOH (e.g., CH(2)ClOOH, CHCl(2)OOH, and CCl(3)OOH) molecules has been investigated. The implication of the present mechanisms in atmospheric chemistry is discussed in comparison with the experimental measurements.     

Unimolecular reactions of CF2ClCFClCH2F and CF2ClCF2CH2Cl: observation of ClF interchange

The unimolecular reactions of CF(2)ClCFClCH(2)F and CF(2)ClCF(2)CH(2)Cl molecules formed with 87 and 91 kcal mol(-1), respectively, of vibrational energy from the recombination of CF(2)ClCFCl with CH(2)F and CF(2)ClCF(2) with CH(2)Cl at room temperature have been studied by the chemical activation technique. The 2,3- and 1,2-ClF interchange reactions compete with 2,3-ClH and 2,3-FH elimination reactions. The total unimolecular rate constant for CF(2)ClCF(2)CH(2)Cl is 0.54 +/- 0.15 x 10(4) s(-1) with branching fractions for 1,2-ClF interchange of 0.03 and 0.97 for 2,3-FH elimination. The total rate constant for CF(2)ClCFClCH(2)F is 1.35 +/- 0.39 x 10(4) s(-1) with branching fractions of 0.20 for 2,3-ClF interchange, 0.71 for 2,3-ClH elimination and 0.09 for 2,3-FH elimination; the products from 1,2-ClF interchange could be observed, but the rate constant was too small to be measured. The D(CH(2)F-CFClCF(2)Cl) and D(CH(2)Cl-CF(2)CF(2)Cl) were evaluated by calculations for some isodesmic reactions and isomerization energies of CF(3)CFClCH(2)Cl as 84 and 88 kcal mol(-1), respectively; these values give the average energies of formed molecules at 298 K as noted above. Density functional theory was used to assign vibrational frequencies and moments of inertia for the molecules and their transition states. These results were combined with statistical unimolecular reaction theory to assign threshold energies from the experimental rate constants for ClF interchange, ClH elimination and FH elimination. These assignments are compared with results from previous chemical activation experiments with CF(3)CFClCH(2)Cl, CF(3)CF(2)CH(3,) CF(3)CFClCH(3) and CF(2)ClCF(2)CH(3).     

Photocycloaddition of 2-Cyanocycloalk-2-Enones to 2, 3-Dimethylbut-2-Ene

Irradiation of 5,5-dimethyl-6-oxocyclohex- l-ene- l-carbonitrile ( 1 ) in the presence of 2,3-dimethylbut-2-ene afforded 3,3,4,4,7,7-hexamethyl-3,4,4a,5,6,7-hexahydroindeno[1,7-c,d]-],2-oxazole (3) in nearly quantitative yield. In contrast, 4,4-dimethyl-5-oxo-cyclopent-l-ene-l-carbonitrile ( 2 ) under the same conditions reacted not to a tricyclic isoxazole but to a 2:1 mixture of 3,3,6,6,7,7-hexamethyl-2-oxo-bicyclo[3.2.0]heptane-l-carbonitrile ( 4 ) and trans-3,3-dimethyl-2-oxo-5-(2,3-dimethylbut-3-en-2-yl)cyclopentane-l-carbonitrile ( 5 ), respectively.     

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of a Dinuclear Compound Cu2[(O=PPh2)2N]2(μ-O2PPh2)2

A neutral dinuclear compound Cu2[(O=PPh2)2N]2(μ-O2PPh2)2 has been unexpec- tedly prepared from the reaction of [Cu2(dppa)2(MeCN)4](ClO4)2 (dppa = bis(diphenylphosphino)- amine) and Sn(edt)2 (edt = ethane-1,2-dithiolate) in dichloromethane in air. ESR spectrum shows that the original Cu+ ion has been oxidized. The crystal structure determined by an X-ray single diffrac- tometer displays that the concurrence of the redox and hydrolysis of the origin ligand dppa is taken with the formation of two new ligands. The complex crystallizes in triclinic, space group P with a = 9.4269(13), b = 10.7522(13), c = 16.787(2)(A), ( = 92.042(5), β = 104.591(7), γ = 96.167(6)°, V = 1633.6(4)(A)3, C72H60 Cu2N2O8P6, Mr = 1394.12, Z = 1, Dc = 1.419 g/cm3, F(000) = 718, μ = 0.856 mm-1, the final R = 0.0530 and wR = 0.1096 for 4210 observed reflections with I > 2σ(I).     

Synthesis and catalytic epoxidation activity with TBHP and H2O2 of dioxo-, oxoperoxo-, and oxodiperoxo molybdenum(VI) and tungsten(VI) compounds containing monodentate or bidentate phosphine oxide ligands: crystal structures of WCl2(O)2(OPMePh2)2, WCl2(O)(O2)(OPMePh2)2, MoCl2(O)2dppmO2.C4H10O, WCl2(O)2dppmO2, Mo(O)(O2)2dppmO2, and W(O)(O2)2dppmO2

The dioxo tungsten(VI) and molybdenum(VI) complexes WCl2(O)2(OPMePh2)2, WCl2(O)2dppmO2, and MoCl2(O)2dppmO2, the oxoperoxo compounds WCl2(O)(O2)(OPMePh2)2, WCl2(O)(O2)dppmO2, and MoCl2(O)(O2)dppmO2, and the oxodiperoxo complexes, W(O)(O2)2dppmO2 and Mo(O)(O2)2dppmO2 have been prepared and characterized by IR spectroscopy, 31P NMR spectroscopy, elemental analysis, and X-ray crystallography. The structural and X-ray crystallographic data of compounds WCl2(O)2(OPMePh2)2, WCl2(O)(O2)(OPMePh2)2, MoCl2(O)2dppmO2.4H10O, WCl2(O)2dppmO2, Mo(O)(O2)2dppmO2, and W(O)(O2)2dppmO2 are also detailed. All complexes were studied as catalysts for cis-cyclooctene epoxidation in the presence of tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) or H2O2 as an oxidant. The Mo-based catalysts showed a superior reactivity over W-based catalysts in the TBHP system. On the other hand, in the H2O2 system, the W-based catalysts (accomplishing nearly 100% epoxidation of cyclooctene in 6 h) are more reactive than the Mo catalysts (<45% under some conditions). Various solvent systems have been investigated, and ethanol is the most suitable solvent for the H2O2 system.     

Synthesis of 2-hetaryl-2-(tetrahydrofuran-2-ylidene)acetonitriles

The reaction of azolylacetonitriles with γ-chlorobutyryl chlorides gave the corresponding 2-(1-R-1,3-di- hydro-2H-benzimidazol-2-ylidene)-, 2-(1,3-benzothiazol-2-ylidene)-, and 6-chloro-2-(4-methylthiazol-2-ylidene)-3-oxohexanenitriles. A study of the intramolecular cyclization of 2-(quinazolin-2-ylidene)-3-oxo-6-hexanenitriles and -heptanenitriles has led to the development of an efficient method for the preparation of 2-(quinazolin-2-yl)-2-(tetrahydrofuran-2-ylidene)acetonitriles. The (Z,E)-isomerism of the synthesized 2-hetaryl-2-(tetrahydrofuran-2-ylidene)acetonitriles was studied.     

Kinetic study of the reactions of Cl atoms with CF3CH2CH2OH, CF3CF2CH2OH, CHF2CF2CH2OH, and CF3CHFCF2CH2OH

The reaction kinetics of chlorine atoms with a series of partially fluorinated straight-chain alcohols, CF(3)CH(2)CH(2)OH (1), CF(3)CF(2)CH(2)OH (2), CHF(2)CF(2)CH(2)OH (3), and CF(3)CHFCF(2)CH(2)OH (4), were studied in the gas phase over the temperature range of 273-363 K by using very low-pressure reactor mass spectrometry. The absolute rate coefficients were given by the expressions (in cm(3) molecule(-1) s(-1)): k(1) = (4.42 +/- 0.48) x 10(-11) exp(-255 +/- 20/T); k(1)(303) = (1.90 +/- 0.17) x 10(-11), k(2) = (2.23 +/- 0.31) x 10(-11) exp(-1065 +/- 106/ T); k(2)(303) = (6.78 +/- 0.63) x 10(-13), k(3) = (8.51 +/- 0.62) x 10(-12) exp(-681 +/- 72/T); k(3)(303) = (9.00 +/- 0.82) x 10(-13) and k(4) = (6.18 +/- 0.84) x 10(-12) exp(-736 +/- 42/T); k(4)(303) = (5.36 +/- 0.51) x 10(-13). The quoted 2sigma uncertainties include the systematic errors. All title reactions proceed via a hydrogen atom metathesis mechanism leading to HCl. Moreover, the oxidation of the primarily produced radicals was investigated, and the end products were the corresponding aldehydes (R(F)-CHO; R(F) = -CH(2)CF(3), -CF(2)CF(3), -CF(2)CHF(2), and -CF(2)CHFCF(3)), providing a strong experimental indication that the primary reactions proceed mainly via the abstraction of a methylenic hydrogen adjacent to a hydroxyl group. Finally, the bond strengths and ionization potentials for the title compounds were determined by density functional theory calculations, which also suggest that the alpha-methylenic hydrogen is mainly under abstraction by Cl atoms. The correlation of room-temperature rate coefficients with ionization potentials for a set of 27 molecules, comprising fluorinated C2-C5 ethers and C2-C4 alcohols, is good with an average deviation of a factor of 2, and is given by the expression log(k) (in cm(3) molecule(-1) s(-1)) = (5.8 +/- 1.4) - (1.56 +/- 0.13) x (ionization potential (in eV)).     

MRCI investigation of different isomers of Ni2O2H2(+)

The geometrical and electronic structures of different isomers of Ni(2)O(2)H(2)(+) are investigated by multireference configuration interaction (MRCI) calculations using natural atomic orbital basis sets. The lowest-lying isomer, Ni(2)(OH)(2)(+), has a rhombic shape with two OH groups bridging the Ni atoms. The next isomer in energetic order with a relative energy of 0.29 eV consists of a linear NiONi(OH(2))(+) chain. Other structures with a rhombic shape, (NiH)(2)O(2)(+), with H bound to the Ni atoms have considerably higher energies, above 4 eV. Especially the low-lying isomers are characterised by a large number of low-lying electronic terms. The product Ni(2)O(2)H(2)(+) of the reaction of Ni(2)O(2)(+) with small alkanes is likely to have the rhombic Ni(2)(OH)(2)(+) structure. The reaction energy of the reaction Ni(2)O(2)(+) + H(2)→ Ni(2)(OH)(2)(+) is estimated to be about -3.5 eV.

Properties of fluorosulfate-based ionic liquids and geometries of (FO2SOH)OSO2F- and (FO2SOH)2O2SOF-

A room temperature ionic liquid (IL) based on the fluorosulfate anion (SO(3)F(-)) has been synthesized by the reaction of 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium (EMIm(+)) chloride and fluorosulfuric acid (HOSO(2)F). The viscosity, ionic conductivity, and electrochemical window of EMImSO(3)F at 25 °C are 46.6 mPa s, 10.8 mS cm(-1), and 4.3 V, respectively. According to a solvatochromic measurement using ILs, there is a trend in the donor ability of fluoro- and oxofluoroanions, PF(6)(-) < BF(4)(-) < N(SO(2)CF(3))(2)(-) < SO(3)CF(3)(-) < SO(3)F(-) < PO(2)F(2)(-), which is explained by the atomic charges obtained from quantum mechanical calculations. The 1 : 2 and 1 : 3 stoichiometric reactions of EMImCl and HOSO(2)F give EMIm(FO(2)SOH)OSO(2)F and EMIm(FO(2)SOH)(2)O(2)SOF, respectively. Both the salts are liquid at room temperature without a HOSO(2)F dissociation pressure (< 1 Pa) and have low viscosity and high ionic conductivity (9.2 mPa s and 30.8 mS cm(-1) for EMIm(FO(2)SOH)OSO(2)F and 5.1 mPa s and 43.2 mS cm(-1) for EMIm(FO(2)SOH)(2)O(2)SOF). The vibrational modes and bonding properties of these anionic species are discussed with the aid of quantum mechanical calculations. The (FO(2)SOH)OSO(2)F(-) anion in EMIm(FO(2)SOH)OSO(2)F does not have an inversion centre, which stands in contrast to the one with an inversion centre (e.g. observed in solid Cs(FO(2)SOH)OSO(2)F). The (FO(2)SOH)(2)O(2)SOF(-) anion in EMIm(FO(2)SOH)(2)O(2)SOF is characterized by vibrational spectroscopy under C(s) symmetry.     

Reactivity of Lewis pairs (R2PCH2AlMe2)2 with carbon dioxide

Species R(2)PCH(2)AlMe(2) (R = Me, Ph) are stable Lewis adducts but still react with CO(2) both in solution and in the solid state. The CO(2) adducts undergo a rearrangement unprecedented for ambiphilic molecules to form aluminium carboxylates. A new spirocyclic compound was also obtained by double Lewis pair activation of CO(2).

Structure and Vibrational Spectra of a New Acidic Diphosphate K2Cu(H2P2O7)2·2H2O

Abstract

Crystals of the acidic diphosphate K2Cu(H2P2O7)2 · 2 H2O, dipotassium copper bis(dihydrogendiphosphate) dihydrate, obtained via two different syntheses, revealed by means of single-crystal X-ray diffraction to be polymorph within triclinic Pī (a = 6.8560(4), b = 7.3140(3), c = 7.5570(4) Å; α = 81.028(4)°, β = 72.327(5)°, γ = 83.697(5)°, V = 355.86(3)Å3) and orthorhombic Pnma (a = 9.8990(6), b = 10.7810(7), c = 13.4010(7) Å, α = β = γ = 90°, V = 1430.17(15) Å3) space groups. Both phases were analyzed by FT-IR and micro-Raman vibrational spectroscopy and interpreted using factor group analysis. No coincidences of majority of the Raman and infrared spectral bands of K2Cu(H2P2O7)2 · 2 H2O confirmed the centrosymmetric structure of these two materials. The vibrational spectra point to a bent POP bridge angle.

Reactions of 2-amino- and 2-hydrazinobenzimidazoles with 2-acyldimedones

Host-guest interactions in a series of self-assembled As2L2Cl2 macrocycles

The reaction of AsCl3 with H2L (where L = a rigid dithiolate) results in the self-assembly of As2L2Cl2 supramolecular macrocycles. For ligands 4,4'-bis(mercaptomethyl)biphenyl (H2), 4,4'-bis(mercaptomethyl)-trans-stilbene (H2), and 1,4-dimethoxy-2,5-bis(mercaptomethyl)benzene (H2), the macrocyclic cavities of the resulting assemblies are large enough to host aromatic solvent molecules, as revealed by single crystal X-ray structures of the inclusion complexes. As2L2Cl(2) macrocycles form in solution as a mixture of diastereomers, but the diastereomers can be selectively crystallized and separated. Crystallization of syn- or anti-As(2)3(2)Cl2 can be controlled using host-guest interactions by the prudent choice of crystallization solvents. anti-As(2)3(2)Cl2 crystallizes exclusively from chloroform and benzene, while a [(syn-As(2)(2)Cl(2))(2).p-xylene] dimer crystallizes from p-xylene and a mixture of [(syn-As(2)3(2)Cl(2))(anti-As(2)3(2)Cl2) x toluene] and [(syn-As(2)3(2)Cl2)2 x toluene] dimers crystallize from toluene.
