The metal complexes of new Schiff bases containing phosphonate groups and catalytic properties for alkane oxidation

In this study, two new salicylidene phosphonate ligands (HL¹ and HL²) and their metal complexes (Cu²⁺, VO²⁺ and La³⁺) were synthesized and characterized by spectroscopic and analytical methods. The molecular structure of the ligand HL¹ was determined by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction study. In the structure of the ligand, there is an intramolecular phenol‐imine hydrogen bond. The synthesized compounds exhibit only one emission maximum upon excitation at 270–295  nm range. Complexation of the Schiff base ligands with metal ions did not cause a considerable quenching effect. Finally, the complexes prepared were used as catalysts in cyclohexane oxidation under microwave irradiation. The complexes showed high conversion rates (> 90%) for cyclohexane oxidation; however, poor selectivity was observed for all complexes. The La³⁺ complexes showed better selectivity for cyclohexane → cyclohexanol transformation with about 45% selectivity.

Photopolymerization of vinyl ether networks using an iodonium initiator—The role of photosensitizers

Photo‐differential scanning calorimetry (photo‐DSC) and UV‐visible spectrometry were used to investigate the photocuring kinetics of visible light initiated cationic photopolymerization of triethyleneglycol divinyl ether with a diphenyl iodonium salt and three photosensitizers, 1‐chloro‐4‐propoxy‐9H‐thioxanthen‐9‐one (CPTXO), acridine orange (AO), and camphorquinone (CQ). Although all photosensitizers were effective in causing photopolymerization, CPTXO and AO photo‐reacted during the irradiation; whereas CQ was not significantly consumed during the timescale of the photo‐DSC experiment. This difference in photo‐reactivity has not been reported previously, and indicates that the reaction of the iodonium ion with CPTXO and AO results in the formation of the photosensitizer radical cation, whereas the CQ mechanism involves the reduction of the CQ excited state to a ketyl radical by a H‐donor (monomer) followed by the oxidation of the ketyl radical by the iodonium salt and thus regeneration of the CQ. For the CPTXO and AO systems, the photopolymerization rate was retarded by a radical inhibitor but the CQ system was unaffected, which confirms that different mechanisms are involved. The cure rate was found to be proportional to the concentrations of CPTXO and CQ but appeared to follow an approximately square root dependence on the AO concentration. Mechanisms to explain these differences were presented. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem 47: 5474–5487, 2009     

New phosphine oxide aziridinyl phosphonates as chiral Lewis bases for the Abramov-type phosphonylation of aldehydes

A series of Lewis bases were screened for Abramov-type phosphine additions to aldehydes. A novel phosphine oxide aziridinyl phosphonate POAP-A was found to be better than the others in forming the product in 96% yield and with 42% ee. The absolute configuration of the newly synthesized POAP Lewis bases was determined by single-crystal X-ray analysis.     

New Photoinitiating Systems for Cationic Polymerization Acting at Near UV and Visible Range

Summary: New photoiniting systems for cationic polymerization acting at near UV and visible range are described. The applicability of acylgermanes as a new class of free radical promoters for photoinitiated cationic polymerization is demonstrated. Moreover, the use of substituted vinyl halides as source for readily oxidizable free radicals is presented. The polymerization of vinyl ethers can be initiated by the irradiation of substituted vinyl halides in the presence of Lewis acids such as zinc halide. Furthermore, possibilities for conducting cationic polymerization at visible range by using highly conjugated thiophene derivatives are demonstrated. Mechanistic aspects of all initiating systems are discussed.     

Novel polymeric potassium complex: Its synthesis,structural characterization,photoluminescence and electrochemical properties

In this paper, we obtained a novel poly(vanillinato potassium) complex (PVP) as a single crystal and characterized by analytical and spectroscopic methods. A single crystal of the PVP was obtained from the acetone solution. X-ray structural data show that crystals contain polymeric K⁺ complex of vanillin. Each potassium ion in the polymeric structure is identical and seven-coordinate, bonded to two methoxy, two phenoxy and three aldehyde oxygen atoms from four vaniline molecules. Two aldehyde oxygen atoms are bridging between potassium ions. It crystallizes in the monoclinic system, space group P2₁/c, with lattice parameters a=9.6215(10) Å, b=17.4139(19) Å, c=9.6119(10) Å, β=100.457(2)° and Z=4. Thermal properties of the PVP were investigated by TGA, DTA and DSC methods. The electrochemical properties of the complex were studied in different solvents and at various scan rates. The luminescence properties of the complex in different solvents and at different pH values have been investigated. The results show that the complex exhibits more efficient luminescence property in CH₃CN and n-butanol.     

Compton scattering of 59.5 keV gamma rays from p-Si sample in an external electric field

This study is related to Compton scattering of photons from a p-Si sample whose surface charge density distributions are changed by an external electric field. The external electric field intensity in the range 0-75 kV/m was used to change the surface charge density distributions of the sample. The sample surface perpendicular to the electric field was selected as the scattering surface. The p-Si sample was bombarded by 59.5 keV γ-photons emitting from an Am-241 point source. The Compton scattered photons at an angle of 90^o were detected by an Si(Li) detector. The Compton scattering intensity suddenly increased with the application of the electric field since the applied electric field distorts both the negatively charged scattering center (free electron, bound electron, ionized acceptor) and the positively charged scattering center (hole) and their momentum distribution in the sample. There is a good third-order polynominal relation between the Compton scattering intensity and the increasing (or decreasing) electric field intensity. The results show that the positively charged scattering centers behave like negatively charged scattering centers, but the latter are slightly more effective than the former in the Compton scattering of γ-rays from the sample in the electric field.
