Studies on hydrogen ferrite phase in γ-Fe2O3 synthesised from ferrous fumarate half hydrate precursor

Thermal techniques viz., TG/DTA/DSC methods have been employed in understanding the formation and decomposition of hydrogen ferrite phase (H-F) as a metastable intermediate in the conversion of -Fe₂O₃·xH₂O, to -Fe₂O₃. Magnetic hysteresis measurements carried out at liquid N₂ and at room temperature for the vacancy ordered -Fe₂O₃ and its H-F phase also supplement these studies.The author thanks prof. M.R.

Synthesis and structure of 5,6,7,12-tetrahydrodibenz[c,f][1,5]azabismocines

Hypervalent organobismuth compounds, 6-tert-butyl-5,6,7,12-tetrahydrodibenz[c,f][1,5]azabismocines, with 13 different substituents on the bismuth atom including halogens, alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, aryl, or phenylthio groups have been synthesized. A key compound, 12-chloro-6-tert-butyl-5,6,7,12-tetrahydrodibenz[c,f][1,5]azabismocine, which is a precursor for other azabismocines, has been synthesized by two different procedures; one is based on Akiba’s method using 2-bromobenzylbromide as one of the starting materials and the other is a newly developed one using a cheaper starting material, 2-chlorobenzyl chloride. The structures of 12 new bismuth compounds were determined by X-ray diffraction. The eight-membered tetrahydroazabismocine ring has proved to be highly flexible and the hypervalent Bi-N bond distances vary ranging from 2.568(3) to 2.896(5) Å, depending on the electronic nature of the substituents on the bismuth atom. The Bi-N bond distances have good linear relationship against Hammett’s σ_m constants.     

Novel disposable bismuth-sputtered electrodes for the determination of trace metals by stripping voltammetry

This work describes a novel type of bismuth electrode for stripping voltammetry based on coating a silicon substrate with a thin bismuth film by means of sputtering. The bismuth-based sensors were characterized by optical methods (scanning electron microscopy (SEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD)) and as well as by linear sweep voltammetry. Subsequently, the electrodes were tested for the detection of low concentrations of trace metals (Cd(II), Pb(II) and Ni(II)) by stripping voltammetry. Well-formed stripping peaks were observed for trace concentrations of the target analytes demonstrating “proof-of-principle” for these sensors. This type of electrochemical device, utilizing thin-film technology for the formation of the bismuth film, holds promise for future applications in trace metal analysis.

Bismuth triflate catalyzed Claisen rearrangement of allyl naphthyl ethers

Bismuth triflate was found to be an efficient catalyst for the Claisen rearrangement of allyl naphthyl ethers. The reaction proceeds smoothly with a catalytic amount of bismuth triflate (20 mol %) to afford the corresponding ortho-allyl naphthol in moderate to good yields in most cases.     

铁酸钴纳米微粒的共沉淀法制备和磁性质(英)

The cobalt ferrite nanoparticles were prepared by coprecipitation in the presence of poly (N-vinylpyrrolidone) (PVP) and characterized by XRD, TEM, EDX and magnetometry. XRD results suggest the formation of pure cobalt ferrite. The mean particle sizes of CoFe₂O₄ samples annealed at 400 ℃ and 600 ℃ were ca. 6 and 25 nm, respectively as obtained by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The magnetic measurements indicated that nano-particles obtained at 400 ℃ were superparamagnetic while that prepared at 600 ℃ were ferrimagnetic.     

Study of structural,electromagnetic and dielectric properties of cadmium substituted Ni–Zn nanosized ferrites

Sol-gel auto-combustion method was adopted to prepare Cd²⁺ ions substituted Ni–Zn nanosized ferrites having a chemical formula Ni_0.5Zn_0.5-xCd_xFe₂O₄ (0.0 $\le x\le 0.4)$. Their structural, electromagnetic, and dielectric properties were investigated by using XRD, FE-SEM, EDS, FTIR, VSM, and IS. The XRD analysis revealed a single-phase cubic structure of all samples. The addition of cadmium increased the lattice constant and cell volume of Ni–Zn ferrite due to the difference in the ionic radii between Cadmium (0.97 ?Å) and Zinc (0.74 ?Å). FESEM images showed irregularly shaped grain sizes in the range of 40 to 73 ?nm with random orientations and some agglomeration. The FTIR analysis also confirmed the presence of spinal ferrite phase functional groups in all samples. The saturation magnetization decreased (from 89.51 to 71.32 emu/g) with increasing cadmium content. However, the remanent magnetization and coercivity parameters increased with an increase in cadmium content. The dc resistivity as a function of the temperature of all samples was investigated, and the activation energies were found to be in the range of 0.48 to 0.51 ?eV. The dielectric loss decreased with increasing cadmium content. However, the dielectric constant and dielectric loss tangent (tan) varied non-monotonically with increased cadmium content.

A reinvestigation of quaternary layered bismuth oxyhalides of the Sillén X1 type

A family of layered bismuth oxyhalides, L^I_0.5Bi_1.5O₂X and L^IIBiO₂X has been reinvestigated. Formation of X1-type Sillén compounds has been established for L^I=Li, Na, L^II=Ca, Sr, Ba, and X=Cl, Br, I, but the details of their crystal structures are different. While all L^I_0.5Bi_1.5O₂X, CaBiO₂Br, and CaBiO₂I adopt the disordered tetragonal Nd₂O₂Te structure, all compounds of L^II=Sr and Ba are orthorhombic and isostructural to PbSbO₂Cl, due to L/Bi cation ordering. Crystal structures have been determined for CaBiO₂I, SrBiO₂Br, SrBiO₂I, and BaBiO₂I. We discuss the factors which determine the occurrence and type of cation ordering in the quaternary bismuth and antimony X1-type oxyhalides. We also predict that more isostructural compounds can be prepared with antimony.
