Synthese und Kristallstruktur von Hydrogenselenaten zweiwertiger Metalle – M(HSeO4)2 (M = Mg,Mn, Zn) und M(HSeO4)2 · H2O (M = Mn,Cd)

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of Hydrogen Selenates of Divalent Metals – M(HSeO₄)₂ (M = Mg, Mn, Zn) and M(HSeO₄)₂ · H₂O (M = Mn, Cd) New hydrogen selenates M(HSeO₄)₂ (M = Mg, Mn, Zn) and M(HSeO₄)₂ · H₂O (M = Mn, Cd) have been synthesized using MSeO₄ (M = Mg, Mn, Zn, Cd) and 90% selenic acid as starting materials. The crystal structures have been determined by X-ray single crystal crystallography. The compounds M(HSeO₄)₂ (M = Mg, Zn) belong to the structure type of Mg(HSO₄)₂, whereas Mn(HSeO₄)₂ forms a new structure type. Both hydrogen selenate monohydrates are isotypic to Mg(HSO₄)₂ · H₂O. In all compounds the metal atoms are octahedrally coordinated by oxygen atoms of different HSeO₄-tetrahedra. In the HSeO₄-tetrahedra the Se–OH-distances (mean value 1.70 Å) are about 0.1 Å longer than Se–O-distances (mean value 1.62 Å). In the structure of M(HSeO₄)₂ (M = Mg, Zn) there are zigzag chains of hydrogen bonded HSeO₄-tetrahedra. The structure of Mn(HSeO₄)₂ is characterized by chains of HSeO₄-tetrahedra in form of screws. Hydrogen bonds from and to water molecules connect double layers of MO₆-octahedra and HSeO₄-tetrahedra in the structures of M(HSeO₄)₂ · H₂O.     

钴系尖晶石型复合氧化物的甲烷催化燃烧性能研究

Novel tailormade Bi4MO4(PO4)2 structural type (M = Mg, Zn)

In the Bi(2)O(3)-MO-P(2)O(5) ternary system, the commonly observed sizable 1D ribbon-like units have been extended to their 2D infinite end member, leading to the novel tailormade Bi(4)MO(4)(PO(4))(2) compounds. It contains planar [Bi(2)O(2)](2+) derivatives, separated by two slabs of PO(4), which create channels hosting the M(2+) cations (M = Mg, Zn). For both compounds, supercell orderings occur comparatively to the predicted ideal crystal structure (V(Mg) = 2V(ideal) and V(Zn) = 8V(ideal)). In the Mg case a transition into the ideal lattice occurs above 450 °C. In spite of the conceptual assembly of 2D motifs, the final architecture is three-dimensional due to strong interbonds. Thus, our work gives new insights on the possibility for versatile organization of original secondary building units (SBUs) able to self-assemble into predicted structural edifices. Single-crystal and powder XRD versus temperature, high-temperature (31)P NMR, as well as transmission electron microscopy were used for structural characterization. Preliminary electric characterization is also reported.     

Long-range solvent effects on the orbital interaction mechanism of water acidity enhancement in metal ion solutions: a comparative study of the electronic structure of aqueous Mg and Zn dications

We study the dissociation of water coordinated to a divalent metal ion center, M2+ = Mg2+, Zn2+ using density functional theory (DFT) and ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) simulations. First, the proton affinity of a coordinated OH- group is computed from gas-phase Mg2+(H2O)5(OH-), which yields a relative higher gas-phase acidity for a Zn2+-coordinated as compared to a Mg2+-coordinated water molecule, DeltapKa(gp) = 5.3. We explain this difference on the basis of a gain in stabilization energy of the Zn2+(H2O)5(OH-) system arising from direct orbital interaction between the coordinated OH- and the empty 4s state of the cation. Next, we compute the acidity of coordinated water molecules in solution using free-energy thermodynamic integration with constrained AIMD. This approach yields pKa Mg2+ = 11.2 and pKa Zn2+ = 8.4, which compare favorably to experimental data. Finally, we examine the factors responsible for the apparent decrease in the relative Zn2+-coordinated water acidity in going from the gas-phase (DeltapKa(gp) = 5.3) to the solvated (DeltapKa = 2.8) regime. We propose two simultaneously occurring solvation-induced processes affecting the relative stability of Zn2+(H2O)5(OH-), namely: (a) reduction of the Zn 4s character in solution states near the bottom of the conduction band; (b) hybridization between OH- orbitals and valence-band states of the solvent. Both effects contribute to hindering the OH- --> Zn2+ charge transfer, either by making it energetically unfavorable or by delocalizing the ligand charge density over several water molecules.     

Two-dimensional metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) constructed from heterotrinuclear coordination units and 4,4'-biphenyldicarboxylate ligands

Three novel metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) formulated as [Zn(2)M(BPDC)(3)(DMF)(2)].4DMF (M = Co(II), Ni(II) or Cd(II); BPDC = 4,4'-biphenyldicarboxylate; DMF = N,N'-dimethylformamide) have been prepared via solvothermal synthesis from mixtures of the corresponding transition metal salts and 4,4'-biphenyldicarboxylic acid (H(2)BPDC). The framework structures are characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis, IR and UV-vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD). All three compounds possess essentially the same 2-D layered coordination framework consisting of linear heterotrinuclear secondary building units (SBUs) connected by rigid bridging BPDC ligands. Crystal data: for (C(60)H(66)CoN(6)O(18)Zn(2)): monoclinic, space group P2(1)/n, M = 1348.86, a = 20.463(4), b = 14.819(3), c = 23.023(5) A, beta = 111.75(3) degrees , V = 6484(2) A(3), Z = 4, D(c) = 1.382 Mg m(-3).

Syntheses and structures of magnesium and zinc boraamidinates: EPR and DFT investigations of Li, Mg, Zn, B, and In complexes of the [PhB(NtBu)2].- anion radical

The first magnesium and zinc boraamidinate (bam) complexes have been synthesized via metathetical reactions between dilithio bams and Grignard reagents or MCl2 (M = Mg, Zn). The following new classes of bam complexes have been structurally characterized: heterobimetallic spirocycles {(L)mu-Li[PhB(mu-NtBu)2]}2M (6a,b, M = Mg, L = Et2O, THF; 6c, M = Zn, L = Et(2)O); bis(organomagnesium) complexes {[PhB(mu3-NtBu)2](MgtBu)2(mu3-Cl)Li(OEt2)3} (8) and {[PhB(mu3-NtBu)2](MgR)2(THF)2} (9a, R = iPr; 9b, R = Ph); mononuclear complex {[PhB(mu-NDipp)2]Mg(OEt2)2} (10). Oxidation of 6a or 6c with iodine produces persistent pink (16a, M = Mg) or purple (16b, M = Zn) neutral radicals {Lx-mu-Li[PhB(mu-NtBu)2]2M}. (L = solvent molecule), which are shown by EPR spectra supported by DFT calculations to be Cs-symmetric species with spin density localized on one of the bam ligands. In contrast, characterization of the intensely colored neutral radicals {[PhB(mu-NtBu)2]2M}. (5c, M = In, dark green; 5d, M = B, dark purple) reveals that the spin density is equally delocalized over all four nitrogen atoms in these D2d-symmetric spirocyclic systems. Oxidation of the dimeric dilithio complex {Li2[PhB(mu4-NtBu)2]}2 with iodine produces the monomeric neutral radical {[PhB(mu-NtBu)2]Li(OEt2)x}. (17), characterized by EPR spectra and DFT calculations. These findings establish that the bam anionic radical [PhB(NtBu)2].- can be stabilized by coordination to a variety of early main-group metal centers to give neutral radicals whose relative stabilities are compared and discussed.     

Tuning the singlet oxygen quantum yield of near-IR-absorbing porphyrazines

We report the quantum yields for singlet oxygen production by a series of porphyrazines (pz) of the form M[pz(An;B4-n)] (Scheme 1), where the peripheral substituent A is [S-R]2 with R = (CH2CH2O)3H, B is a fused alpha,alpha'-dialkoxybenzo group and M = 2H, Mg or Zn. These compounds show intense near-IR absorbance/emission (longest wavelength emission, approximately 830 nm). Their solubilities vary with R, whereas their optical properties do not. We show that singlet oxygen sensitization by these luminescent compounds can be "tuned" from essentially off to on by varying n and selection among M = 2H, Mg or Zn. The quantum yields vary ca 60-fold within the set of compounds studied, from phidelta = 0.007 for compound 3 to phidelta = approximately 0.4 for compound 11.     

Photocatalytic Activities for Water Splitting of RuO_2-loaded MGa_2O_4（M=Zn,Ni） with d~（10） Configuration

MGa2O4(M=Zn,Ni) rods with similar crystallinity and BET surface area were prepared via a facile template-engaged reaction.The photocatalytic activities for water splitting of RuO2-loaded MGa2O4(M=Zn,Ni) were investigated under high-pressure Hg lamp.RuO2-loaded ZnGa2O4 catalyst exhibited much higher photocatalytic activity than RuO2-loaded NiGa2O4.Factors affecting the photocatalytic activities of RuO2-loaded MGa2O4(M=Zn,Ni) were discussed.It was suggested that the electronic structure of oxide semiconductor was a predominant factor of the photocatalytic behavior for RuO2-loaded MGa2O4(M=Zn,Ni).     

含非交换氘的四唑-锌配合物

The solvothermal reaction (D₂O) of 2,6-dideuterium-4-cyanopyridine with ZnCl₂ in the presence of NaN₃ offers a novel complex Zn(OD)(C₆H₂D₂N₄) (1) in which Zn has a distorted tetrahedron composed of two N atoms from one tetrazoyl group and pyridyl group and two O atoms from two deuteratohydroxy OD groups.

Tetra-2,3-pyrazinoporphyrazines with externally appended thienyl rings: synthesis, UV-visible spectra, electrochemical behavior, and photoactivity for the generation of singlet oxygen

A series of pyrazinoporphyrazine macrocycles carrying externally appended 2-thienyl rings, represented as [Th(8)TPyzPzM], where Th(8)TPyzPz = tetrakis-2,3-[5,6-di(2-thienyl)pyrazino]porphyrazinato anion and M = Mg(II)(H(2)O), Zn(II), Co(II), Cu(II), or 2H(1), were prepared and isolated as solid air-stable hydrated species. All of the compounds, completely insoluble in water, were characterized by their UV-visible spectra and electrochemical behavior in solutions of dimethylformamide (DMF), dimethyl sulfoxide, and pyridine. Molecular aggregation occurs at concentrations of ca. 10(-4) M, but monomers are formed in more dilute solutions of 10(-5) M or less. The examined octathienyl compounds [Th(8)TPyzPzM] behave as electron-deficient macrocycles, and UV-visible spectral measurements provide useful information about how the peripheral thienyl rings influence the electronic distribution over the entire macrocyclic framework. Cyclic voltammetric and spectroelectrochemical data confirm the easier reducibility of the compounds as compared to the related phthalocyanine analogues, and the overall redox behavior and thermodynamic potentials for the four stepwise one-electron reductions of the compounds are similar to those of the earlier examined octapyridinated analogues [Py(8)TPyzPzM]. Quantum yields (Φ(Δ)) for the generation of singlet oxygen, (1)O(2), the cytotoxic agent active in photodynamic therapy (PDT), and fluorescence quantum yields (Φ(F)) were measured for the Zn(II) and Mg(II) complexes, [Th(8)TPyzPzZn] and [Th(8)TPyzPzMg(H(2)O)], and the data were compared to those of corresponding octapyridino macrocycles [Py(8)TPyzPzZn] and [Py(8)TPyzPzMg(H(2)O)] and their related octacations [(2-Mepy)(8)TPyzPzZn](8+) and [(2-Mepy)(8)TPyzPzMg(H(2)O)](8+). These measurements were carried out in DMF and in DMF preacidified with HCl (ca. 10(-4) M). All of the examined Zn(II) compounds behave as excellent photosensitizers (Φ(Δ) = 0.4-0.6) both in DMF and DMF/HCl solutions, whereas noticeable fluorescence activity (Φ(F) = 0.36-0.43) in DMF/HCl solutions is shown by the Mg(II) derivatives; these data might provide perspectives for applications in PDT (Zn(II)) and imaging response and diagnosis (Mg(II)).     

Polysulfonylamine. LXXIII [1]. Metall(II)-dimesylamid-Tetrahydrate: Das Dimesylamid-Anion als einzähniger O-Ligand und tetrafunktioneller Wasserstoffbrücken-Akzeptor in den isotypen Komplexen [M(H2O)4 {(CH3SO2)2N}2] mit M = Magnesium,Nickel, Kupfer und Zink

Polysulfonyl Amines. LXXIII. Metal(II) Dimesylamide Tetrahydrates: The Dimesylamide Anion as a Monodentate O-Ligand and a Tetrafunctional Hydrogen Bond Acceptor in the Isotypic Complexes [M(H₂O)₄{(CH₃SO₂)₂N}₂], where M = Magnesium, Nickel, Copper, or Zinc By treating aqueous HN(SO₂CH₃)₂ solutions with the appropriate metal hydroxides, oxides, or carbonates, the crystalline tetrahydrates M[(CH₃SO₂)₂N]₂ · 4 H₂O (M = Mg, Ca, Mn, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Cd) were obtained and analytically characterized. The crystal structures of the Mg, Ni, Cu and Zn compounds, as determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction at low temperatures, reveal an isotypic series (triclinic, space group P1 , Z = 1). The structures consist of centrosymmetric trans-octahedral [M(H₂O)₄{(CH₃SO₂)₂N}₂] molecules in which the anionic ligand acts as a monodentate O-donor. For the Mg, Ni and Zn complexes, the M? OH₂ and M? O(anion) distances lie in the ranges 203–206 pm and 209–214 pm, respectively. The copper compound features a marked Jahn-Teller distortion with Cu? OH₂ = 195.8 and 197.7 pm and Cu? O(anion) = 232.5 pm. The cis-angles O? M? O of the four molecules do not deviate appreciably from 90°. The complex units are associated through a highly organized three-dimensional hydrogen bond network in which all the water protons act as donors and the non-coordinating oxygen atoms and the nitrogen atom of the anionic ligand are involved as acceptors. The H-bond pattern is subjected to a graph-theoretical analysis at the first and second levels.     

Vapour-adsorption and chromic behaviours of luminescent coordination polymers composed of a Pt(II)-diimine metalloligand and alkaline-earth metal ions

Four new bimetallic coordination polymers (CPs), {M[Pt(CN)(2)(5,5'-dcbpy)]·4H(2)O}(n) (M = Mg(2+), Ca(2+), Sr(2+), Ba(2+); 5,5'-H(2)dcbpy = 5,5'-dicarboxy-2,2'-bipyridine) were synthesized using four alkaline-earth metal ions and a Pt(II)-diimine metalloligand [Pt(CN)(2)(5,5'-H(2)dcbpy)]. All four CPs are isomorphous with the Zn complex, {Zn[Pt(CN)(2)(5,5'-dcbpy)]·4H(2)O}(n), which exhibits effective metallophilic interactions between Pt(II) ions. These CPs exhibited colourful thermochromic behaviour and solid-state solvatochromic-like behaviours when suspended in various solvents. Thermogravimetric analysis and vapour-adsorption measurements revealed that the CPs can reversibly adsorb water and MeOH vapours. The emission energy of the triplet metal-metal-to-ligand charge-transfer ((3)MMLCT) state varied markedly upon guest adsorption/desorption. The chromic and vapour-adsorption properties of these CPs depend strongly on the cross-linking M(2+) ions.     

In situ synthesis of trisubstituted methanol ligands and their potential as one-pot generators of cubane-like metal complexes

Two different one pot routes to a variety of metal cubane compounds are reported; one route is based on an in situ benzilic acid type rearrangement and the other involves in situ nucleophilic attack at a ketone. Diketosuccinic acid in basic solution in the presence of certain divalent metal ions undergoes a benzilic acid type rearrangement to generate the carbon oxyanion, C(CO(2) (-))(3)O(-), which serves as a cubane-forming bridging ligand in a series of octanuclear complexes of composition [M(8){C(CO(2))(3)O}(4)](H(2)O)(12) (M=Mg, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Zn). At the heart of each of these highly symmetrical aggregates is an M(4)O(4) cubane core, each oxygen component of which is provided by the alkoxo centre of a C(CO(2) (-))(3)O(-) ligand. Reaction of 2,2'-pyridil, (2-C(5)H(4)N)COCO(2-C(5)H(4)N), and calcium nitrate in basic alcoholic solution, which proceeds by a similar benzilic acid type rearrangement, gives the cubane compounds, [Ca(4)L(4)(NO(3))(4)] in which L=(2-C(5)H(4)N)(2)C(COOR)O(-) (R=Me or Et). Nucleophilic attack by bisulfite ion at the carbonyl carbon atom of 2,2'-dipyridyl ketone in the presence of certain divalent metals generates the electrically neutral complexes, [{(C(5)H(4)N)(2)SO(3)C(OH)}(2)M] (M=Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Zn and Cd). Cubane-like complexes [M(4){(C(5)H(4)N)(2)SO(3)C(O)}(4)] (M=Zn, Mn) can be obtained directly from 2,2'-dipyridyl ketone in one-pot reaction systems (sealed tube, 120 degrees C) if a base as weak as acetate ion is present to deprotonate the OH group of the initial [(C(5)H(4)N)(2)SO(3)C(OH)](-) bisulfite addition compound; the [(C(5)H(4)N)(2)SO(3)C(O)](2-) ligand in this case plays the same cubane-forming role as the ligands C(COO(-))(3)O(-) and (2-C(5)H(4)N)(2)C(COOR)O(-) above. When excess sodium sulfite is used in similar one-pot reaction mixtures, the monoanionic complexes, [M(3)Na{(C(5)H(4)N)(2)SO(3)C(O)}(4)](-) (M=Zn, Mn, Co) with an M(3)NaO(4) cubane core, are formed directly from 2,2'-dipyridyl ketone.     

Design of energy band alignment at the Zn(1-x)Mg(x)O/Cu(In,Ga)Se2 interface for Cd-free Cu(In,Ga)Se2 solar cells

The electronic band structure at the Zn(1-x)Mg(x)O/Cu(In(0.7)Ga(0.3))Se(2) interface was investigated for its potential application in Cd-free Cu(In,Ga)Se(2) thin film solar cells. Zn(1-x)Mg(x)O thin films with various Mg contents were grown by atomic layer deposition on Cu(In(0.7)Ga(0.3))Se(2) absorbers, which were deposited by the co-evaporation of Cu, In, Ga, and Se elemental sources. The electron emissions from the valence band and core levels were measured by a depth profile technique using X-ray and ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy. The valence band maximum positions are around 3.17 eV for both Zn(0.9)Mg(0.1)O and Zn(0.8)Mg(0.2)O films, while the valence band maximum value for CIGS is 0.48 eV. As a result, the valence band offset value between the bulk Zn(1-x)Mg(x)O (x = 0.1 and x = 0.2) region and the bulk CIGS region was 2.69 eV. The valence band offset value at the Zn(1-x)Mg(x)O/CIGS interface was found to be 2.55 eV after considering a small band bending in the interface region. The bandgap energy of Zn(1-x)Mg(x)O films increased from 3.25 to 3.76 eV as the Mg content increased from 0% to 25%. The combination of the valence band offset values and the bandgap energy of Zn(1-x)Mg(x)O films results in the flat (0 eV) and cliff (-0.23 eV) conduction band alignments at the Zn(0.8)Mg(0.2)O/Cu(In(0.7)Ga(0.3))Se(2) and Zn(0.9)Mg(0.1)O/Cu(In(0.7)Ga(0.3))Se(2) interfaces, respectively. The experimental results suggest that the bandgap energy of Zn(1-x)Mg(x)O films is the main factor that determines the conduction band offset at the Zn(1-x)Mg(x)O/Cu(In(0.7)Ga(0.3))Se(2) interface. Based on these results, we conclude that a Zn(1-x)Mg(x)O film with a relatively high bandgap energy is necessary to create a suitable conduction band offset at the Zn(1-x)Mg(x)O/CIGS interface to obtain a robust heterojunction. Also, ALD Zn(1-x)Mg(x)O films can be considered as a promising alternative buffer material to replace the toxic CdS for environmental safety.     

Interaction of methyl beta-D-xylopyranoside with metal ions: density functional theory study of cationic and neutral bridging and pendant complexes

Density functional theory calculations on complexes of 4C1, 1C4 and 2SO ring conformations of methyl beta-D-xylopyranoside 1 with divalent metal cations, M = Mg2+, Ca2+, Zn2+, and Cd2+, are presented. Bridging and pendant cationic, [M(H2O)41]2+ and [M(H2O)(5)1]2+, as well as neutral complexes, [M(OH)2(H2O)(2)1] and [M(OH)2(H2O)(3)1], and neutral complexes involving a doubly deprotonated sugar, [M(H2O)(4)1(2-)], are considered. In aqueous and chloroform solution the stability of cationic and pendant neutral complexes is greatly diminished compared with gas-phase results. In contrast, bridging neutral complexes [M(OH)2(H2O)(2)1] and those of type [M(H2O)(4)1(2-)], are stabilized with increasing solvent polarity. Solvation also profoundly influences the preferred binding position and ring conformation. Compared with complexes of bare metal cations, additional ligands, e.g., H2O or OH-, significantly reduce the stability of 1C4 ring complexes. Irrespective of the cation, the most stable structure of bridging complexes [M(H2O)(4)1]2+ results from coordination of the metal to O3 and O4 of methyl beta-D-xylopyranoside in its 4C1 ring conformation.     

Experimental and theoretical studies of elemental site preferences in quasicrystalline approximants (R-phases) within the Li-Mg-Zn-Al system

A series of ternary and quaternary R-phase compounds in the Li-Mg-Zn-Al system are synthesized from pure elements in sealed Ta tubes with starting compositions based on the suggestions from electronic structure calculations using relative Mulliken populations to quantify the site preferences for the various elements. Single-crystal structural analyses reveal new R-phase compounds with various Li/Mg and Zn/Al ratios. The space group of all compounds is Im3 (No. 204). Five quaternary phases [Li1.00(1)Mg0.63(2)Zn1.23(1)Al2.14(1) (1), a = 14.073(3) A; Li1.00(1)Mg0.63(1)Zn1.42(1)Al1.96(1) (2), a = 14.088(3) A; Li1.01(1)Mg0.62(1)Zn1.31(1)Al2.06(1) (3), a = 14.096(5) A; Li1.03(1)Mg0.60(1)Zn1.78(3)Al1.59(3) (4), a = 13.993(5) A; Li0.78(2)Mg0.85(2)Zn2.47(1)Al0.94(1) (5), a = 13.933(2) A] and four ternary compounds [Li1.63Zn0.81(1)Al2.56(1) (6), a = 14.135(3) A; Li1.63Zn1.42(1)Al1.95(1) (7), a = 13.966(5) A; Li1.63Zn1.59(1)Al1.78(1) (8), a = 13.947(2) A; and Li1.63Zn1.77(1)Al1.60(1) (9), a = 13.933(4) A] are identified. The crystal structure exhibits an Al/Zn (M sites) network constructed from M12 icosahedra and M60 buckyball-type clusters. Li/Mg atoms (A sites) fill cavities within the Al/Zn network to give pentagonal dodecahedra (A20). The site-potential studies (relative Mulliken populations) indicate two groups of atomic sites (positively and negatively polarized), which are consistent with the single-crystal studies. Further differentiation of site potentials among the various electropositive sites leads to segregation of Li and Mg, which is also verified experimentally. The analysis of relative Mulliken populations in an intermetallic framework provides a useful method for elucidating elemental site preferences when diffraction techniques cannot unequivocally solve the site preference problem.     

Group 12 metal zwitterionic thiolate compounds: preparation and structural characterization

Reactions of TabHPF(6) (Tab = 4-(trimethylammonio)benzenethiolate) with three equiv. of M(OAc)(2)·2H(2)O (M = Zn, Cd) gave rise to two tetranuclear adamantane-like compounds, [M(4)(μ-Tab)(6)(Tab)(4)](PF(6))(8)·S (·S: M = Zn, S = DMF·4H(2)O; ·S: M = Cd, S = DMF·5H(2)O). The similar reactions of MCl(2) (M = Zn, Cd, Hg) with four equiv. of TabHPF(6) in the presence of Et(3)N afforded three mononuclear compounds [M(Tab)(4)](PF(6))(2)·S (·S: M = Zn, S = 2(H(2)O)(0.5); ·S: M = Cd, S = 2(H(2)O)(0.5); ·S: M = Hg, S = 2DMF). Treatment of the precursor complex or with equimolar MCl(2) and two equiv. of TabHPF(6) and Et(3)N produced one dinuclear compounds [M(μ-Tab)(Tab)(2)](2)(PF(6))(4)·2DMF·2H(2)O (·2DMF·2H(2)O: M = Zn; ·2DMF·2H(2)O: M = Hg) while analogous reactions of with CdCl(2)·2H(2)O gave rise to [Cd(μ-Tab)(2)(Tab)](2)(PF(6))(4)·2DMF (·2DMF). These compounds were characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectra, UV-Vis spectra, (1)H NMR and single-crystal X-ray crystallography. In or , four M(2+) ions and six S atoms of Tab ligands constitute an adamantane-like [M(4)(μ-S)(6)] cage in which each M(2+) ion is tetrahedrally coordinated by one terminal S and three bridged S atoms from four different Tab ligands. In , each M(2+) center of the [M(Tab)(4)](2+) dication is tetrahedrally coordinated by four S atoms of Tab ligand. Two [M(Tab)(2)](2+) dications in or are further bridged by a pair of Tab ligands to form a dimeric [M(μ-Tab)(Tab)(2)](2)(4+) structure. Each dimeric [(Tab)Cd(μ-Tab)(2)Cd(Tab)](4+) unit in is linked to its two neighboring units via two couples of bridging Tab ligands, thereby generating a unique 1D cationic chain.

Zn取代类水滑石衍生复合氧化物上N2O的催化分解

恒定二价与三价阳离子比为3((nZn+nMg)/nAl=3), 采用共沉淀法制备不同Zn含量的系列类水滑石前驱物ZnxMg3-xAl-HT (x=0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, 3.0), 经焙烧得到其衍生复合氧化物催化剂ZnxMg3-xAlO, 用于N2O的直接催化分解. 采用X射线衍射(XRD)、比表面积分析(Brunauer-Emmett-Teller)、热分析(TG-DSC)和傅里叶变换红外(FT-IR)光谱等表征手段考察了Zn含量对材料前驱物及其衍生复合氧化物组成和结构的影响, 研究了系列ZnxMg3-xAlO催化剂的N2O催化分解性能, 同时探讨了反应条件, 如N2O浓度、空速、O2和H2O等因素对催化剂活性的影响. 结果表明, 所有前驱物材料均能形成完整的层状水滑石结构; 经高温焙烧后形成了以Zn-Al尖晶石为主相的复合氧化物, 且Zn掺杂有助于促进尖晶石相的生成; Zn含量对材料的热稳定性、比表面积和N2O催化分解活性有显著的影响; 随着Zn含量增加, 催化剂比表面积下降, 但其不是影响催化剂活性的主要因素; 650 ℃焙烧后的Zn2.0Mg1.0AlO催化剂具有较好的N2O催化分解活性; N2O浓度、空速及O2对催化剂活性的影响较小, 而H2O则对活性有较大的影响.     

Zur Kenntnis der Hydrate M(HSeO3)2 · 4H2O (M = Mg,Co, Ni,Zn). Röntgenstrukturanalytische,schwingungsspektroskopische und thermoanalytische Untersuchungen

On the Hydrates M(HSeO₃)₂ · 4H₂O (M = Mg, Co, Ni, Zn) – Crystal Structures, IR, Raman, and Thermoanalytical Investigations From aqueous solutions of M(HSeO₃)₂ single crystals of Mg(HSeO₃)₂ · 4H₂O and of the hitherto unknown compounds Co(HSeO₃)₂ · 4H₂O, Ni(HSeO₃)₂ · 4H₂O and Zn(HSeO₃)₂ · 4H₂O could be obtained. The crystal structures, X-ray powder, IR, Raman and thermoanalytical (DTA, TG, Raman heating) data are presented and discussed. The crystal data of the isotypic compounds are: monoclinic, space group C2/c, Z = 4, Mg: a = 1 464.6(2), b = 755.3(1), c = 1 099.9(1) pm, β = 126.59(1)°, V = 0.9769(1) nm³, Co: a = 1 462.5(2), b = 756.5(2), c = 1 102.2(2) pm, β = 126.53(1)°, V = 0.9798(2) nm³, Ni: a = 1 452.2(2), b = 751.0(1), c = 1 091.5(1) pm, β = 126.28(1)°, V = 0.9595(1) nm³, Zn: a = 1 468.3(2), b = 755.8(1), c = 1 103.1(1) pm, β = 126.79(1)°, V = 0.9804(2) nm³. The crystal structures consist of hexagonal packed [M(HSeO₃)₂ · 2H₂O]_n chains of [MO₄(H₂O)₂] octahedra linked by Se atoms. They contain trigonal pyramidal SeO₂OH^?ions with “free” hydroxyl groups and also “free” molecules of water of crystallization. The hydroxyl groups build strong H-bonds (O? H …? O distances: 265–268 pm). The IR spectra show AB doublett bands in the OH stretching mode region of the hydroxyl groups. The water molecules of crystallization are linked to planar (H₂O)₄ tetramers by H-bonds with unusually short O? H …? O bond distances of 271–273 pm. DTA and TG measurements indicate that thermal decomposition results in the direct formation of the respective diselenite MSe₂O₅. Raman heating measurements show under quasi static conditions the intermediate formation of the anhydrous hydrogen selenites.     

Coordination polymers of macrocyclic oxamide with 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylate: syntheses, crystal structures and magnetic properties

Solvothermal reactions of mixed ligands H(3)BTC and macrocyclic oxamide complexes (ML, M = Cu, Ni) with M(ClO(4))(2)·6H(2)O (M = Co, Zn, Ni and Cd) afford six new complexes, including [M'(4)(BTC)(2)(ML)(2)(OH)(2)(H(2)O)(2)]·2H(2)O (M' = Co, M = Ni, for (1); M' = Zn, M = Ni, for (2); M' = Zn, M = Cu, for (3)), [Ni(3)(BTC)(2)(NiL)(2)(H(2)O)(6)]·2CH(3)OH·2H(2)O (4), [Cd(4)(BTC)(2)(HBTC)(NiL)(4)(H(2)O)]·3H(2)O (5) and [Cd(HBTC)(CuL)]·H(2)O (6) (ML, H(2)L = 2, 3-dioxo-5, 6, 14, 15-dibenzo-1,4,8,12-tetraazacyclo-pentadeca-7,13-dien; H(3)BTC = 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid). Complexes 1-3 consist of a 2D layer framework formed by the linkage of M(II)(M = Ni, Cu) and M'(4) (M' = Co, Zn) cluster via the oxamide and BTC(3-) bridges and display a (3,6)-connected network with a (4(3))(2)(4(6).6(6).8(3)) topology. The structure of 4 consists of pentanuclear [Ni(II)(5)] units and arranges in a 1D cluster chain. Complex 5 exhibits a 2D layered structure characterized by 3,4,3-connected (4.6(2))(3)(4.6(3).8(2))(4(2).6(3).8)(4(2).6) topology. Complex 6 possesses a 3D network with sra topology. The magnetic properties of complexes 1 and 4 were investigated.
