Strategies for baryon resonance analysis

The analytic properties of scattering amplitudes provide a meeting point for experimental and theoretical investigations of baryon resonances. Pole positions and residues allow for a parameterization of resonances in a well-defined way which relates different reactions. The recent progress made within the Jiilich model is summarized.     

High pressure 17O NMR study of solvent exchange on square planar complexes: Water exchange on [Pd(dien)H2O]2+

Abstract

The water exchange reaction of [Pd(dien)H₂O]²⁺ (dien = diethylenetriamine) was studied as function of temperature (268-308 K) and pressure 0.1-197 MPa) using ₁₇O NMR techniques. The rate and activation parameters are: k_cx = 5100 s^?1 at 298 K; ΔH^# =38 kJ mol^?1; ΔS^# = -47 JK^?1 mol^?1; ΔV^# = -2.8 cm³ mol^?1 at 296 K. The results are discussed in reference to solvent exchange data for other Pt(II) and Pd(II) complexes, and are interpreted in terms of an associatively activated substitution process.

The Flipping of CO Ligand Groups in Metal Carbonyl Compounds and its Frequency in Fe(CO)5

It has been proven qualitatively by a number of authors using variable temperature NMR experiments that most metal carbonyl complexes are nonrigid. A quantitative determination of the ligand exchange frequency v_e is often achieved by a line shape analysis or by measurement of the transverse relaxation time T₂ using the Carr-Purcell method. In the case of a “very fast” exchange, however, both methods prove unsuccessful. It is shown in this study that a simultaneous fit of IR or Raman spectra on the one hand and NMR spectra on the other can make possible the determination of v_e for the “very fast” exchange and can also facilitate the determination of v_e in “slow” and “medium” exchange cases considerably. The ligand exchange frequency thus found for Fe(CO)₅, 1.1 × 10¹⁰s^?1, is unexpectedly high; comparison with variable temperature measurements on solid Fe(CO)₅, yields similar energy barriers. A mechanism of exchange closely related to the “Berry mechanism” is proposed. Finally the consequences of this surprisingly large ligand exchange rate are discussed with respect to IR band assignments for molecular “fragments” M(CO)^x (where x=coordination number, and M is a transition metal, typically lanthanoid or actinoid).     

The structure and magnetic properties of μ_3-oxotriiron(Ⅲ) complex [Fe_3O(OBz)_6(CH_3OH)_3](NO_3)(CH_3OH)_2

A new μ3-O triiron(Ⅲ) complex [Fe_3O(OBz)_6(CH_3OH)_3](NO_3)(CH_3OH)_2 (HOBZ = benzoic acid) has been synthesized, its structure has been determined and variable temperature magnetic susceptility has also been measured. In the molecule, three iron atoms formed an equilateral triangle with u_3-O in center. The fitting to the magnetic susceptibility showed that an intramolecular antiferromagnetic exchange interaction occurred between iron atoms with J=-25.51 cm~(-1), and a weaker intermolecular antiferromagnetic exchange interaction occurred with zJ' = -2.30cm~(-1).     

The structure and magnetic properties of μ3-oxotriiron(III) complex [Fe3O(OBz)6(CH3OH)3](NO3)(CH3OH)2

A new μ₃-O triiron(III) complex [Fe₃O(OBz)₆(CH₃OH)₃](NO₃)(CH₃OH)₂ (HOBZ = benzoic acid) has been synthesized, its structure has been determined and variable temperature magnetic susceptility has also been measured. In the molecule, three iron atoms formed an equilateral triangle with μ₃-O in center. The fitting to the magnetic susceptibility showed that an intramolecular antiferromagnetic exchange interaction occurred between iron atoms with J=-25.51 cm^?1, and a weaker intermolecular autiferromagnetic exchange interaction occurred with zJ' = ?2.30 cm^?1.     

A model for cation adsorption to clays and membranes

A cation adsorption model is presented and its recent applications are discussed. The model combines electrostatic equations with specific binding, and considers neutral and positively charged complexes between the negative surface sites and organic cations in a closed system. Extensions in the model account for dye aggregation in solution, and for the formation of solution complexes of inorganic cations, such as [M⁺⁺ Cl^–]⁺. The amounts of 45Ca²⁺ adsorbed to vesicles extracted from the plasma membranes of melon root cells could be adequately simulated and predicted. The binding coefficients determined for Ca²⁺, Na⁺, and Mg²⁺ are in the range of values previously deduced for binding to phospholipid components. Model calculations were applied to the test of hypotheses on the effect of salt stress on the growth of roots. The adsorption of monovalent organic cations to montmorillonite is characterized by binding coefficients that are at least six orders of magnitude larger than those of Na⁺, Mg²⁺, Ca²⁺, and Cd²⁺, or those of CdCl⁺ or CaCl⁺. Monovalent organic cations were found to adsorb 140–200% of the cation exchange capacity of the clay and to cause charge reversal. Deductions from adsorption results of acriflavin are consistent with those drawn from the application of other experimental methods. Preliminary results on the adsorption of divalent organic cations are presented. Agro-environmental applications of organo-clays are discussed.
