Chemistry of polyfunctional molecules-123. Reactions of BiBr3, SbI3 and AsI3 with LiN(PPh2)2; X-ray structure of a cyclophosphazene salt containing arsenic(I)

BiBr₃ or SbI₃ react at 20°C with LiN(PPh₂)₂ (1) to give elementary Bi or Sb and the P---P coupled phosphazene ligand Ph₂P---N=PPh₂---PPh₂=N---PPh₂ (2). The reaction of AsI₃ with 1 at room temperature formed yellow needles of the eight-membered heterocycle (3), whereas AsI₃ interacted at 80°C with 1 in the molar ratio of 1:3 to give elementary arsenic and 2. Treatment of AsI₃ and 1 at 20°C in a 1:2 stoichiometry yielded the seven-membered, cyclic arsenium(I) salt

Effective removal of chlorinated organic pollutants by bimetallic iron-nickel sulfide activation of peroxydisulfate

Chlorinated organic pollutants(COPs) have caused serious contaminants in soil and groundwater,hence developing methods to remove these pollutants is necessary and urgent.By a simple hydrothermal method,we synthesized the bimetallic iron-nickel sulfide(FeNiS) particles which exhibited excellent catalytic property of COPs removal.FeNiS was chosen as the peroxydisulfate(PDS) activator to removal COPs including 4-chlorophenol(4-CP),1,4-dichlorophenol(1,4-DCP) and 2,4,6-trichlorophenol(2,4,6-TCP).The results show that FeNiS can efficiently activate PDS to produce sulfate radical(SO_4~(·-)) which plays major role in the oxidative dechlorination and degradation due to its strong oxidizing property and the ability of producing hydroxyl radicals(~·OH) in the alkaline condition.Meanwhile,the Cl-abscised from COPs during the dechlorination can turn into the chlorine radicals and enhance the degradation and cause further mineralization of intermediate products.This bimetallic FeNiS catalyst is a promising PDS activator for removal of chlorinated organics.     

CdS nanoclusters stabilized by thiolate ligands: A mini-review

One of the most exciting frontiers in materials chemistry in recent years is the optoelectronics of quantum-confined semiconductor nanoclusters. These nanoclusters are 10–200 A in diameter, and in this size regime exhibit extra-ordinarily interesting quantum mechanical effects. Cadmium sulfide is a popular semiconductor for these studies, and reviewed here is the synthesis and charac-terization of such CdS nanoclusters, with emphasis on how chemical control of the surface by thiolates influences product formation and properties. Also described are the syntheses and structures of true molecular clusters of CdS capped with thiolate ligands.

Theoretical investigation of isotopic scrambling mechanisms in 2-chloroethyl methyl sulfide

Ab initio and semiempirical molecular orbital calculations have been applied to study the concerted and stepwise isotopic scrambling mechanisms of 2-chloroethyl methyl sulfide in the gas phase and in aqueous solution. The calculations reveal the structural details of the reactants, transition structures, and intermediates involved in this reaction and provide relative energy estimates. The concerted mechanism is found to be competitive with the stepwise mechanism in the gas phase, but the stepwise mechanism is favored in aqueous solution as no true transition structure for the concerted mechanism could be found using the solvation models. A combined approach of evaluating solvation energies with the generalized-Bom-plus-surface-tensions SM _x solvation models of Cramer and Truhlar at ab initio optimized geometries is found to deliver the best agreement with experimentally determined reaction barriers. Together with the recent experimental results of McManus and co-workers, the present study provides insights into the controlling factors involved in the elementary reaction steps of sulfur mustards and a solid foundation for investigations into more complex reactions of related compounds.     

New odorless method for the Corey-Kim and Swern oxidations utilizing dodecyl methyl sulfide (Dod-S-Me)

Development of the odorless dodecyl methyl sulfide (Dod-S-Me, 1) as an alternative for dimethyl sulfide (DMS) and new odorless methods for the Corey-Kim and Swern oxidations are described. These reactions have been developed with a view toward green chemistry, utilizing Dod-S-Me (1) and common solvents instead of dichloromethane.     

Removal of H2S from Exhaust Gas by Use of Alkaline Activated Carbon

The purpose of this research was to select an activated carbon and alkaline solution blend that generated the best H₂S adsorption on alkaline-activated carbon. RB₂ (activated carbon) impregnated with NaOH solution was shown to have the optimum H₂S removal efficiency. The optimum NaOH concentration was 50 mg per gram of carbon. H₂S adsorption via RB₂-NaOH₅₀ was five times that of a corresponding fresh-activated carbon. The adsorption equivalent of H₂S is nearly 1 (mol-H₂S/mol-AOH), therefore, H₂S + AOH AHS + H₂O was the major reaction. The H₂S adsorption isotherm corresponded to the Freundlich isotherm.
