Die Reaktion von Tellurhexafluorid mit Trimethylamin,Strukturen der TeF5−- und SeF5−-Anionen

Reaction of Telluriumhexafluoride and Trimethylamine, Structures of the TeF₅^? and SeF₅^? Anions The reaction of TeF₆ and (CH₃)₃N is of the redox kind, resulting in reduction of tellurium: X-ray single crystal analysis reveals the compounds (CH₃)₂N? CH₂? N(CH₃)₂⁺TeF₅^? and [(CH₃)₃NH⁺]₅(TeF₅^?)₃(HF₂^?)₂. By comparison with published data it can be shown that this mixture is identical to previously published [(CH₃)₃N]₂TeF₆. The latter was supposed to be one of the few examples of tellurium in a coordination state of eight. (CH₃)₄N⁺TeF₅^? and (CH₃)₄N⁴SeF₅^? are obtained and their structure is investigated by single crystal x-ray methods also. The anions SF₅^?, SeF₅^? and TeF₅^? are discussed in terms of weak interactions.     

Novel synthesis and properties of 7,9-dimethylcyclohepta[b]pyrimido[5,4-d]furan-8(7H),10(9H)-dionylium tetrafluoroborate: autorecycling oxidation of some alcohols under photo-irradiation

Three-step reactions starting from 2-chlorotropone with barbituric acid afforded novel 7,9-dimethylcyclohepta[b]pyrimido[5,4-d]furan-8(7H),10(9H)-dionylium tetrafluoroborate (9·BF₄⁻), which is the isoelectronic compound of the 5-ethyl-3-methyllumiflavinium ion. The stability of cation 9 is expressed by the pK_R+ value, which was determined spectrophotometrically, as ca. 6.0. The electrochemical reduction of 9 exhibited low reduction potential at −0.58 (V vs Ag/AgNO₃), upon cyclic voltammetry (CV). In a search for the reactivity, reactions of 9·BF₄⁻ with some nucleophiles, hydroxide, hydride, amines, thiols, and methanol, were carried out to exhibit that the introduction of nucleophiles is dependent on the nucleophile itself. The photo-induced oxidation reactions of some alcohols catalyzed by 9·BF₄⁻ under aerobic conditions were carried out to give the corresponding carbonyl compounds in more than 100% yield [based on compound 9·BF₄⁻], suggesting the oxidizing function of 9·BF₄⁻ toward alcohols in the autorecycling process. The UV-vis and fluorescence spectra of 9 were studied to suggest the electron transfer from alcohols to the excited 9.     

碱金属和碱土金属离子在反相高效液相色谱柱上的保留机理

发现以酒石酸和吡啶二甲酸等羧酸水溶液作淋洗剂时，钠，铵，钾，镁和钙等碱金属及碱土金属离子在ＯＤＳ反相高效液相色谱柱上有明显的保留，而且相互之间能达到一定程度的分离。单独用分配或疏水作用等反相高效液相色谱的保留机理难以解释其保留行为。为此，作者提出了动态包固定相机理，即认为羧酸根阴离子因其疏水性在ＯＤＳ固定相有保留，在固定相表面形成具有羧酸基阳离子交换树脂功能的动态包覆固定相。

Application of HPLC to measure vanadium in environmental,biological and clinical matrices

Vanadate and vanadium compounds exist in many environmental, biological and clinical matrices, and despite the need only limited progress has been made on the analysis of vanadium compounds. The vanadium coordination chemistry of different oxidation states is known, and the result of the characterization and speciation analysis depends on the subsequent chemistry and the methods of analysis. Many studies have used a range of methods for the characterization and determination of metal ions in a variety of materials. One successful technique is high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) that has been used mainly for measuring total vanadium level and metal speciation. Some cases have been reported where complexes of different oxidation states of vanadium have been separated by HPLC. Specifically reversed phase (RP) HPLC has frequently been used for the measurement of vanadium. Other HPLC methods such as normal phase, anion-exchange, cation-exchange, size exclusion and other RP-HPLC modes such as, ion-pair and micellar have been used to separate selected vanadium compounds. We will present a review that summarizes and critically analyzes the reported methods for analysis of vanadium salts and vanadium compounds in different sample matrices. We will compare various HPLC methods and modes including sample preparation, chelating reagents, mobile phase and detection methods. The comparison will allow us to identify the best analytical HPLC method and mode for measuring vanadium levels and what information such methods provide with regard to speciation and quantitation of the vanadium compounds.     

Low-Temperature Phase Formation of Sn-Doped LaMnO3+δ Perovskite

The incorporation of Sn into LaMnO₃ perovskite and its influence on magnetotransport properties were studied in samples synthesized at low temperature. Single-phase materials for two series of samples with La/(Sn+Mn)=1 and La/(Sn+Mn)<1 ratios were obtained by substitution of up to 10% of the Mn ions by Sn⁴⁺. The effect of Sn substitution was monitored through measurements of thermal, “M(T)”, and magnetic field, “M(H)”, dependences of magnetization, as well as of resistivity, “ρ(T)”, at 0 and 70 kOe. These showed that this effect depends strongly on the perovskite cation site ratio (A/B). For La/(Sn+Mn)=1, M and T_C were depressed as Sn content was increased. The magnetization data suggest the presence of magnetic clusters with superparamagnetic behavior. No evidence of magnetoresistance (MR) was found. For La/(Sn+Mn)<1 ratio, the samples showed ferromagnetic behavior and MR and both M and T_C raised as Sn content increased. The results are discussed in terms of A site vacancies.     

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of 2-Chloromethyl-1H-benzimidazole Nitrate, [ClCH_2(C_7H_6N_2)]NO_3

1 INTRODUCTION Benzimidazole is an interesting heterocyclic compound because it is found in various naturally occurring drugs, such as omeprazole, astemizole and emedastine difumarate[1]. The efficacy of sub- stituted benzimidazoles in the treatment of parasitic infections is well known[2～4]. Substituted benzimid- azole moieties are established pharmacophores in parasitic chemotherapy. Bis(2-benzimidazole) and some substituted bis(benzimidazol-2-yl)alkanes have attracted much interest …     

Selective Transport of Alkali—Metal Cations through Liquid Membranes by Non—Cyclic Carriers

The emission spectra of a series of naphthalene end-labeled oligo-oxyethylene(N-Pn-N) and their facilitated transport of cations across liquid membranes have been investigated.Alkali-metal cations enhance or inhibit the intramolecular excimer formation of N-Pn-N remarkably,suggesting that the polyether chain of N-Pn-N in solution complexes with the cations,and the orientation of the terminal chromophores depends on the cation size and the length of the polyether chain. These compounds are able to act as carriers to facilitate transport of alkali-metal cations through organic liquid membranes.The transport efficiencies are comparable with those of cyclic carriers such as crown ethers,and show remarkable selectivity.     

Substitution-Inert Metal Complex Mobile Phases in Non-Suppressed Cation Chromatography

Substitution-inert metal complexes, [Co(edda)(H₂O)₂]⁺, (Co(edda)(en)]⁺, [Co(edda)(dmen)]⁺, [Co(en)₂-(gly)]²⁺, [Co(en)₂(acac)]²⁺, and [Co(trien)(gly)]²⁺ in their nitrate salt solutions are used as eluents in nonsuppressed cation chromatography (where edda = ethylenediamine-N,N′-diacetic acid, en = ethylenediamine, dmen = N,N′-dime-thylethylenediamine, gly = glycine, acac = acetylacetone, and trien = triethylenetetraamine). It is found that all the mono- and di-valent charged complexes can be used to separate alkali and alkaline earth metal cations, respectively. The separations for monovalent cations are sometimes comparable to those using ultrapure HNO₃ solutions. However, the divalent Ca²⁺ and Sr²⁺ ions cannot be resolved using the metal complex eluents. On the other hand, a selected, direct non-suppressed IC separation of zinc(II) and cadmium(II) ions is demonstrated for the first time using a substitution-inert metal complex eluent and a conductivity detector. Comparisons of these eluents with those reported previously, i. e. HNO₃ and ethylenediammonium salt solution are made and explanations are proposed to account for the different selectivities observed where possible. The future development of this technique is also briefly discussed.     

Infrared spectra of two sexithiophenes in neutral and doped states: a theoretical and spectroscopic study

The FT-infrared spectra of two sexithiophenes having their end ,′-positions substituted by n-hexyl or -thiohexyl groups, in neutral and doped states, are studied with the main aim of deriving information about the π-electrons delocalization and about the electronic structure of the charged defects created upon doping with iodine. The analysis of the experimental data is aided by Density Functional Theory calculations. The modifications in the electronic structure of the sexithiophene backbone induced by the n-thiohexyl encapsulation are discussed from the point of view of single molecule interactions in thiol-terminated π-conjugated oligomers bound to metallic or cluster electrodes.
