Syntheses and Crystal Structures of Three Cadmium（II） Coordination Complexes Based on Flexible 1,2-Bis（imidazol-1~ˊ-yl）ethane

Three Cd（II） coordination complexes,{[Cd（bime）3]（NO3）2·（H2O）3}n（1）,[Cd（bime）Br2]n（2） and [（H2bime）（CdBr4）（H2O）]n（3）（bime = 1,2-bis（imidazol-1-yl）ethane）,have been prepared and characterized.Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis reveals that 1~3 crystallize in the trigonal space group P-3,monoclinic space group C2/c and triclinic space group P1,respectively.In 1,bime bridges six-coordinated Cd（II） to generate a two-fold interpenetrating 3D coordination polymer,in which NO3- is not involved in coordination,but serves as a void filler to balance the charge of the 3D framework.The six NO3- and six uncoordinated water molecules form an unprecedented 24-membered macrocycle through hydrogen bonding interaction.In 2,bime in an anti-conformation links the CdBr2 units into a zigzag chain.In 3,bime does not take part in coordination,but is protonated to act as a counter cation of [CdBr4 ]2-.The hydrogen bonds between H2bime and [CdBr4]2- result in the formation of a supramolecular chain.     

Kinetic study of electrochemically induced Michael reaction of1,4-dihydroxyanthraquinone with acetylacetone and benzoylacetone

The electrochemical oxidation of 1,4-dihydroxyanthraquinone has been studied in the presence of acetylacetone and benzoylacetone as nucleophiles in a mixture of ethanol/water by means of cyclic voltammetry as a diagnostic technique.The results indicate the participation of electrochemically produced anthraquinone in the Michael addition reaction with acetylacetone and benzoylacetone to form the corresponding new anthraquinone derivatives.On the basis of the EC mechanism,the observed homogeneous rate constants（kobs）of the reaction of anthraquinone with acetylacetone and benzoylacetone were estimated by comparing the experimental cyclic voltammograms with the digitally simulated results.     

铁氰化锰修饰玻碳电极的制备及其电化学性能

A thin film of manganese hexacyanoferrate （MnHCF） was electrochemically formed on a glassy carbon （GC） electrode to prepare a chemically modified electrode （CME）. The mechanism of film formation of MnHCF and its growth process were investigated in detail by cyclic voltammetry. The results show that the stoichiometric composition of MnHCF is Mn^ⅢFe^Ⅲ（CN）6, an analogue of prussian yellow. There exist three clear-cut stages in the whole modification process and the last stage is indispensable to the fabrication of homogenized, stable MnHCF film and must last for an appropriate time. The surface morphology of MnHCF/GC electrode was characterized by scanning electron microscopy （SEM）, which further verified the effective deposition of MnHCF film on GC. The kinetic constants of MnHCF/GC electrode process were also evaluated. The resulting MnHCF film modified electrode presented good stability and high electrocatalytic activity toward the oxidation of H2O2, indicating that MnHCF film possesses function of catalase and can be expected for analytical purposes.

A novel method to prepare metal oxide electrode:Spin-coating with thermal decomposition

In this work,we propose a new spin-coating method coupling with high thermal decomposition,to prepare the tin-antimony(Sn-Sb) oxide electrode.The character of the spin-coating electrode was compared with the dip-coating electrode through X-ray diffraction(XRD),scanning electron microscopy(SEM),accelerated life test,cyclic voltammetry,and electrolytic degradability. The results showed that the spin-coating electrode had a better defined crystal form,a smoother and more compact surface than that of the dip-coating electrode.Service time of the spin-coating electrode was determined to be longer than 15 h,and it was less than 2 min for the dip-coating electrode.Electrochemical characterization analysis showed that the electrolytic degradability of the spin-coating electrode is better than that of the dip-coating electrode.     

Investigation on Concentrated Ⅴ（Ⅳ）/Ⅴ（Ⅴ） Redox Reaction by Rotating Disc Voltammetry

The kinetic characteristics of the concentrated Ⅴ（Ⅳ）/Ⅴ（Ⅴ） couple have been studied at a glassy carbon electrode in sulfuric acid using rotating-disc electrode and cyclic voltammetry. The kinetics of the Ⅴ（Ⅳ）/Ⅴ（Ⅴ） redox couple reaction was found to be electrochemically quasi-reversible with the slower kinetics for the Ⅴ（Ⅴ） reduction than that for the Ⅴ（Ⅳ） oxidation. And, dependence of diffusion coefficients and kinetic parameters of Ⅴ（Ⅳ） species on the Ⅴ（Ⅳ） and H2SO4 concentration was investigated. It is shown that the concentration of active species Ⅴ（Ⅳ） should be over 1 mol·L^-1 for the redox flow battery application. Further, with increasing the Ⅴ（Ⅳ） and H2SO4 concentration, the diffusion coefficients of Ⅴ（Ⅳ） were gradually reduced whereas its kinetics was improved considerably, especially in the case of Ⅴ（Ⅳ） and H2SO4 up to 2 and 4 mol·L^-1.     

La（III）催化磷酸二（4－硝基苯酚）酯水解研究

The catalytic hydrolysis of bis（4-nitrophenyl）phosphate （BNPP） by lanthanum（Ⅲ） ion in the presence of amino-alcoholic ligands： diethanolamine （DEA） and triethanolamine （TEA）, was investigated kinetically at 30 ℃. The results indicated that the dinuclear dihydroxo complexes formed by lanthanum（Ⅲ） ion with aminoalcoholic ligands might be the catalytically active species which catalyze the hydrolysis of BNPP to different extents and the catalytic mechanism was believed to involve the synergism of double Lewis acid activation of the substrate and an intramolecular nucleophilic attack of a bridging oxo ligand.

In the title complex, the two Cd（ Ⅱ） ions are in different coordination environments with distorted octahedral and pengonal bipyramidal geometries, respectively. Two Cd polyhedra are linked together through one μ2-η^1：η^1 and one μ2-η^1：η^1 carboxylate groups from different 1,2-BDC ligands, giving rise to a binuclear Cd（ Ⅱ ） cluster, and such clusters are connected by bridged 1,2-BDC ligands to form a 2-D structure along the c axis. The inter- and intermolecular hydrogen bonds further connect the 2-D structures into a 3-D supramolecular network.     

Study on polymerization and structure of polydiphenylamine

The electrochemical oxidation of diphenylamine in acetonitrile produces an adherent uniform polymer film which exhibits mutiple colour variation(yellow-green-blue) in a wide range of potential scan. The polymerization mechanism and the structure of the polymer were studied by cyclic voltammetry, FT-IR and in situ ESR. The results indicate that the electrochemical polymerization of diphenylamine belongs to a cationic radical polymerization process. During electrolysis, only oligomers were initialy produced, then polymer film was formed on the electrode surface. The electropolymerization performs via the 4,4' C-C phenyl-phenyl coupling mechanism.

The title compound, [Cu₂(SO₄)₂(C₁₀H₈N₂)₂(C₂H₆O₂)₂(H₂O)₂]_n, contains two crystallographically unique Cu^II centres, each lying on a twofold axis and having a slightly distorted octahedral environment. One Cu^II centre is coordinated by two bridging 4,4′‐bipyridine (4,4′‐bipy) ligands, two sulfate anions and two aqua ligands. The second is surrounded by two 4,4′‐bipy N atoms and four O atoms, two from bridging sulfate anions and two from ethane‐1,2‐diol ligands. The sulfate anion bridges adjacent Cu^II centres, leading to the formation of linear ...Cu1–Cu2–Cu1–Cu2... chains. Adjacent chains are further bridged by 4,4′‐bipy ligands, which are also located on the twofold axis, resulting in a two‐dimensional layered polymer. In the crystal structure, extensive O—H...O hydrogen‐bonding interactions between water molecules, ethane‐1,2‐diol molecules and sulfate anions lead to the formation of a three‐dimensional supramolecular network structure.

A one‐dimensional platinum mixed‐valence complex with bridging thiocyanate S atoms: [[PtII(en)2](μ‐SCN)[PtIV(en)2](μ‐SCN)](ClO4)4 (en is ethane‐1,2‐diamine)

A new one‐dimensional platinum mixed‐valence complex with nonhalogen bridging ligands, namely catena‐poly[[[bis(ethane‐1,2‐diamine‐κ²N,N′)platinum(II)]‐μ‐thiocyanato‐κ²S:S‐[bis(ethane‐1,2‐diamine‐κ²N,N′)platinum(IV)]‐μ‐thiocyanato‐κ²S:S] tetrakis(perchlorate)], {[Pt₂(SCN)₂(C₂H₈N₂)₄](ClO₄)₄}_n, has been isolated. The Pt^II and Pt^IV atoms are located on centres of inversion and are stacked alternately, linked by the S atoms of the thiocyanate ligands, forming an infinite one‐dimensional chain. The Pt^IV—S and Pt^II...S distances are 2.3933 (10) and 3.4705 (10) Å, respectively, and the Pt^IV—S...Pt^II angle is 171.97 (4)°. The introduction of nonhalogen atoms as bridging ligands in this complex extends the chemical modifications possible for controlling the amplitude of the charge‐density wave (CDW) state in one‐dimensional mixed‐valence complexes. The structure of a discrete Pt^IV thiocyanate compound, bis(ethane‐1,2‐diamine‐κ²N,N′)bis(thiocyanato‐κS)platinum(IV) bis(perchlorate) 1.5‐hydrate, [Pt(SCN)₂(C₄H₈N₂)₂](ClO₄)₂·1.5H₂O, has monoclinic (C2) symmetry.

Asymmetric structure of cis‐[N‐(9‐anthracenylmethyl)‐1,2‐ethanediamine]dipyridineplatinum(II) dinitrate

Platinum antitumour agents, containing aromatic rings, which are used for targeting DNA in effective therapies for the treatment of cancer. We have synthesized the title metallocomplex with an aromatic ligand and determined its crystal structure. In many cases, complexes of platinum and other metals have a symmetrical structure. In contrast, the platinum(II) complex with pyridine and N‐(9‐anthracenylmethyl)‐1,2‐ethanediamine as ligands (systematic name: cis‐{N‐[(anthracen‐9‐yl)methyl]ethane‐1,2‐diamine‐κ²N ,N ′}bis(pyridine‐κN )platinum(II) dinitrate), [Pt(C₅H₅N)₂(C₁₇H₁₈N₂)](NO₃)₂, is asymmetric. Of the two pyridine ligands, only one is π‐stacked with anthracene, resulting in an asymmetric structure. Moreover, the angle of orientation of each pyridine ligand is variable. Further examination of the packing motif confirms an intermolecular edge‐to‐face interaction.
