Monolayer vanadia on titania systems from alkoxide precursors. Part I. Physicochemical properties

The physicochemical properties of V⁵⁺ ion monolayers supported on anatase, rutile, and anatase-rutile mixed carrier, using vanadyl triisobutoxide as the precursor have been investigated. The coordination and reducibility of surface vanadyl species were found to depend strongly on carrier material and its calcination temperature. The supported monolayers exhibited completely different reduction behavior than bulk V₂O₅. The rutile supported catalyst was the most resistant for reduction.

Influence of the gas phase on metallic reference electrodes used in work function measurements

Contact potential differences between electrodes of Pt, Au and Ta of different surface finishing were measured by the dynamic condenser method in propylene and oxygen. Propylene is irreversibly adsorbed, thus changing the work function. This renders the electrodes unsuitable as standard electrodes for work function measurements on catalysts in the atmosphere of hydrocarbons, but they may be used in adsorption studies on oxygen.

On theC v toC p conversion for solid linear macromolecules

TheC _v toC _p conversion for solid linear macromolecules via the Nernst-Lindemann equationC _p -C _v =A ₀,C _p ² T/T_m is discussed on hand of data for 10 crystals and seven glasses. An average value ofA ₀=(5.11±2.41) · 10^–3 mol K J^–1 was calculated if the mole is assumed to refer to heavy atoms only. ThisA ₀ is numerically equal to the original Nernst—Lindemann constant.

The quest for a stable silyne, RSi ≡ CR′. The effect of bulky substituents [1]

The two major fundamental obstacles which so far have prevented theisolation of stable silynes, RSiCR (1), are: (a)the existence of more stable isomers, e.g., RRC=Si: (2) and(b) their extremely facile (exothermic) dimerication. The steric andelectronic effects of various substituents R and R (R = alkoxy,alkyl, aryl and silyl; R = alkyl and aryl groups) on the stability ofRSiCR relative to the isomeric RRC=Si:(E(1-2)), and on the energy of dimerization tothe corresponding 1,3-disilacyclobutadienes (E(D)), werestudied computationally using density functional theory (DFT) and theONIOM method. The goal was to find a combination of substituents thatwill make RSiCR more stable than RRC=Si: and whichwill also prevent its dimerization. For R = R = H,E(1-2)) = 40.7 kcal/mol (i.e., 2 islower in energy than 1), and E(D) = –104.0kcal/mol. 1, R = OH, R = m-Tbt 2,6-bis[bis(silyl)methyl]phenyl, is by 11.1 kcal/mol morestable than the isomeric silylidene 2. However, thedimerization of 1, R = OH, R = m-Tbt remains highlyexothermic (by 101 kcal/mol). 1, R = R = m-Tbt and1, R = (t-Bu)₃Si, R = m-Tbt, are by 5.8 and 2.0kcal/mol, respectively, less stable than the corresponding 2.However, the dimerization of 1, R = (t-Bu)₃Si, = m-Tbt is exothermic by only 12 kcal/mol. For1, R = (t-Bu)₃Si, and R = Tbt 2,6-bis[bis(trimethylsilyl)methyl]phenyl, the corresponding1,3-disilacyclobutadiene dimer 3, dissociates spontaneously.Thus, (t-Bu₃Si)SiCTbt is predicted to be kineticallystable towards both, isomerization to (t-Bu₃Si)TbtC=Si: anddimerization to 3, making it a viable synthetic target. Thereported energies were calculated atB3LYP/6-31G^**//B3LYP/3-21G^*; good agreement is found betweenthe DFT and the ONIOM results.

Effect of water on the desorption of carbon dioxide from the surface of alumina

Based on investigations of temperature-programmed desorption of CO₂ from -Al₂O₃ surface, three forms of CO₂ adsorption differing considerably in quantitative contributions and temperature ranges of desorption have been distinguished. A significant inhibiting influence of water on CO₂ adsorption has been observed. Water adsorption results in gradual blocking of high and medium-energy adsorptive centers of CO₂ on -Al₂O₃.

Structure and Magnetic Properties of Solid Solutions of Molecular Magnetics Based on Ni(II) and Co(II) Complexes with Nitroxyl Radicals

Ni(II) and Co(II) complexes with deprotonated paramagnetic enaminoketones 4(3,3,3trifluorine2oxopropylidene) 2,2,5,5tetramethyl3imidazolidine1oxyl (L) and 4(3,3,3trifluorine1chlorine2oxopropylidene)2,2,5,5tetramethyl3imidazolidine1oxyl (L¹) and alcohols are shown to form continuous solid solutions Ni_xCo_1-xL₂(C₂H₅OH)₂ and Ni_xCo_1-xL₂ ¹(CH₃OH)₂. Single crystal Xray diffraction analysis showed that concentration variation practically does not affect the structural characteristics of the solid solutions. Distinguishing features if the magnetic behavior of Ni_xCo_1-xL₂ · (C₂H₅OH)₂ and Ni_xCo_1-xL₂ ¹(CH₃OH)₂ are the antiferromagnetic interaction of the moments of the nickel and cobalt sublattices inside the polymeric layers and the antiferromagnetic nature of interlayer interaction of the magnetic moments.     

Structure and reactivity of vanadium-phosphorus oxides

The contribution of thermal methods of analysis to the study of the structure and reactivity of vanadium-phosphorus oxides is examined. In particular, data are reported on the solid-state reaction VOHPO₄·1/2H₂O(VO)₂P₂O₇+2 H₂O for VOHPO₄·1/2H₂O prepared in different ways, on the redox properties of oxidation and reduction of vanadium for catalysts prepared with different PV atomic ratios in the range 0.9–1.3, and on the surface properties determined by TPD of catalysts with different PV ratios. The relationship between these properties and the catalytic properties in the selective oxidation ofn-butane and but-1-ene is discussed.

Kombinierte derivatographische und thermogastitrimetrische Untersuchungen von Verbindungen,die Unter Abspaltung von Ammoniak Zerfallen

Zusammenfassung Verfasser untersuchten mit Hilfe der kombinierten derivatographischen und thermogastitrimetrischen Methode die thermische Zersetzung von Ni(NH₃)₆Cl₂, ZnNH₄PO₄ und MnNH₄PO₄ · H₂O. Die Untersuchungen wurden in Stickstoffatmosphäre ausgeführt. Es wurde festgestellt, daß sich das entweichende Ammoniak in geringem Maße in allen drei Fällen zersetzt. Die Zersetzung des Ammoniaks erfolgte immer nur in der letzten Periode der Untersuchungen, d. h. bei höheren Temperaturen. Es wurde ferner gefunden, daß in den untersuchten Ammoniumphosphatverbindungen die Abspaltung von Ammoniak und die Freisetzung von Wasser nahezu gleichzeitig, in zwei voneinander nicht trennbaren Vorgängen verläuft.

The ammonia liberated during thermal treatment was found to decompose to a small extent for all three compounds in the final stage of the investigation, i.e. at high temperatures. It was also found that ammonia and structural water left practically simultaneously and not in two independent, separate steps.

Thermal analysis of some complexes LH[Cr(NCS)4L2].xH2O (L=NH3 or organic base)

Data obtained by thermal analysis of K₃[Cr(NCS)₆].4H₂O and some derivatives, LH[Cr(NCS)₄L₂].xH₂O, where L=NH₃ or an organic base, are reported. The TG, DTG and DTA curves show common behaviour (SCN^– ligand decomposition) as well as specific behaviour for each complex due to the base L, which complicates the thermal decomposition of the complexes. Some weak bases with low boiling points are easily eliminated, which determines the common thermal behaviour of the complexes.A general mechanism of thermal decomposition is advanced involving dehydration and decomposition processes for both LH⁺ and [Cr(NCS)₄L₂]^–. The apparent activation energies of different processes confirm the thermal decomposition mechanisms of the complexes under study.

Einige schwache Basen mit niedrigen Siedepunkten werden leicht eliminiert, was ein gleiches thermisches Verhalten dieser Komplexe zur Folge hat. Ein allgemeiner Mechanismus der thermischen Zersetzung wird angegeben, der die Dehydratisierung und die Zersetzungsprozesse sowohl für LH⁺ als auch für [Cr(NCS)₄L₂]^– in sich einschließt. Die scheinbaren Aktivierungsenergien der verschiedenen Prozesse sind mit dem Mechanismus der thermischen Zersetzung der Untersuchten Komplexe im Einklang.

Studies on catalytically active surface compounds, VIII. On the reaction of VCl4 with aerosil

The preparation and hydrolysis of silica supported vanadium catalysts have been investigated using VCl₄ as a paramagnetic probe. Chemical analysis shows the possibility of the VCl₄ molecule to react one, two, or three hydroxy groups of the surface. The type of reaction is influenced by the temperature of pretreatment of aerosil (TPA). ESR measurements show distortions of the tetrahedral coordination of the (SiO)_nVCl_4–n surface complex, which is strongest for the threefold attachment (n=3) of VCl₄ to the surface. Hydrolysis is accompanied by an increase of the coordination number and leads to highly mobile vanadium species.
