Untersuchungen im System LaI2/H2: Phasenverhältnisse und Fehlordnung

Investigation of the LaI₂/H₂ System: Phase Relations and Stacking Disorder Heating of LaI₂ under 1 bar hydrogen pressure to 650 °C leads to light gray LaI₂H_0.95(3), accompanied by a structural change from tetragonal to hexagonal. Sharp reflections in the XRD pattern can be indexed in P6₃/mmc with a = 4.2158(7)Å and c = 15.508(3)Å, however, diffuse reflections indicate the presence of stacking faults in the structure, which correspond to a polytypic intergrowth of MoS₂ and NbS₂ type structural fragments. Increasing the reaction temperature to 730 °C results in a better defined diffraction pattern with the peak positions close to those of the 2H‐NbS₂ structure type. An X‐ray powder study of the samples LaI₂H_n proved the miscibility gap between LaI₂ and LaI₂H_n (0 ≤ n ≤ 0.5) in agreement with previous results. With decreasing H‐content of the homogeneous phase the lattice parameters change in opposite direction, a increasing to 4.236(1)Å and c decreasing to 15.39(2)Å for the lower limit.     

Solubilities of lanthanum oxide in fluoride melts: Part I. Solubility in M3AlF6 (M = Li, Na, K)

Solubility of lanthanum oxide was measured by thermal analysis. The solubility in alkali cryolites is rather high, because of chemical reactions between lanthanum oxide and cryolites. In Li₃AlF₆-La₂O₃, alumina precipitates, in the other systems the mixed oxide LaAlO₃ is formed. In La₂O₃-Li₃AlF₆ the eutectic point is at 9.5 mol% La₂O₃ and 755 °C. The eutectic points in La₂O₃-Na₃AlF₆ and La₂O₃-K₃AlF₆ are at 11.5 mol% La₂O₃, and at 937 and 934 °C, respectively.     

X‐Ray Single Crystal Refinement and Superconductivity of La3Ni2B2N3

Crystalline samples of La₃Ni₂B₂N₃ were synthesized using solid state metathesis reactions from combinations of La, LaCl₃, NiCl₂ together with Li₃BN₂. The structure was determined by single crystal X‐ray diffraction (I4/mmm (No. 139), a = 372.95(2) pm, c = 2056.3(2) pm, R₁ = 0.027, wR₂ = 0.062) and confirmed earlier results from neutron powder diffraction. La₃Ni₂B₂N₃ contains BN units capping square planar Ni layers. Isolated nitrogen atoms reside in La₆ octahedra. Magnetic measurements on several bulk samples exhibit superconductivity at temperatures below 14.6 K.     

Structural characterization of methanol substituted lanthanum halides

The first study into the alcohol solvation of lanthanum halide [LaX₃] derivatives as a means to lower the processing temperature for the production of the LaBr₃ scintillators was undertaken using methanol (MeOH). Initially the de-hydration of {[La(μ-Br)(H₂O)₇](Br)₂}₂ (1) was investigated through the simple room temperature dissolution of 1 in MeOH. The mixed solvate monomeric [La(H₂O)₇(MeOH)₂](Br)₃ (2) compound was isolated where the La metal center retains its original 9-coordination through the binding of two additional MeOH solvents but necessitates the transfer of the innersphere Br to the outersphere. In an attempt to in situ dry the reaction mixture of 1 in MeOH over CaH₂, crystals of [Ca(MeOH)₆](Br)₂ (3) were isolated. Compound 1 dissolved in MeOH at reflux temperatures led to the isolation of an unusual arrangement identified as the salt derivative {[LaBr_2.75·5.25(MeOH)]^+0.25 [LaBr_3.25·4.75(MeOH)]^−0.25} (4). The fully substituted species was ultimately isolated through the dissolution of dried LaBr₃ in MeOH forming the 8-coordinated [LaBr₃(MeOH)₅] (5) complex. It was determined that the concentration of the crystallization solution directed the structure isolated (4 concentrated; 5 dilute) The other LaX₃ derivatives were isolated as [(MeOH)₄(Cl)₂La(μ-Cl)]₂ (6) and [La(MeOH)₉](I)₃·MeOH (7). Beryllium Dome XRD analysis indicated that the bulk material for 5 appear to have multiple solvated species, 6 is consistent with the single crystal, and 7 was too broad to elucidate structural aspects. Multinuclear NMR (¹³⁹La) indicated that these compounds do not retain their structure in MeOD. TGA/DTA data revealed that the de-solvation temperatures of the MeOH derivatives 4–6 were slightly higher in comparison to their hydrated counterparts.     

La2O3/MgO催化剂上的甲烷氧化偶联

研究了甲烷在La_2O_3/MgO催化剂上的氧化偶联。发现制备过等对催化剂的行为有显著影响。比较了催化剂的反应性能和体相结构,表明在MgO上存在着三种La_2O_3的状态:高分散La_2O_3是最活泼的;La(OH)_3不太活泼;而呈六方晶相的La_2O_3晶粒活性最低。在催化剂中加入Na_2CO_3和K_2CO_3可以改进催化剂的活性和选择性。还考察了反应条件如温度和空速的影响。     

La0.8Sr0.2Ga0.8Mg0.2O3与La0.8Sr0.2Ga0.8Mg0.15Co0.05O3电导的对比

采用固相合成法制备了La0.8Sr0.2Ga0.8Mg0.2O3(LSGM8282)和La0.8Sr0.2Ga0.8Mg0.15Co0.05O3 (LSGMC5), 利用四电极交流阻抗法和Hebb-Wagner 极化法对比研究了两种材料的总电导率和电子电导率. 实验结果表明, LSGM8282 的总电导率与氧分压无明显依赖关系, 而LSGMC5 的总电导率在高氧分压区随氧分压降低而增加,在中等氧分压区域基本保持不变. 在973-1173 K的温度范围内, LSGM8282的自由电子电导率以及电子空穴电导率的氧分压级数分别为-1/4和1/4.在1073-1173 K的温度范围内, LSGMC5的自由电子电导率以及电子空穴电导率的氧分压级数分别为-1/4和约为1/8, 表明LSGMC5的空穴产生机制可能与LSGM8282不同. LSGM8282 的氧离子电导率与氧分压无关, 而LSGMC5 的氧离子电导率在高氧分压区随氧分压的减小而增加.     

Oxygen/nitrogen ordering in lanthanum new phase (La3Si8N11O4)

High-resolution ¹⁷O NMR spectra have been collected for crystalline samples of lanthanum new phase, La₃Si₈N₁₁O₄. In conjunction with previously published ²⁹Si and ¹⁵N spectra obtained for this phase, and in the light of the high-quality crystal structure data reported recently, a more detailed interpretation of the NMR spectra is presented than was possible in previous studies. The non-bridging oxygens in the structure are responsible for the single sharp peak seen in the ¹⁷O spectrum at 188 ppm; the remaining oxygens, occupying bridging sites shared with nitrogen, show up only weakly on the ¹⁷O spectrum as a broad diffuse band centered around zero ppm. The peak at −57.3 ppm on the ²⁹Si spectrum is believed to correspond to an overlap of [SiN₄] and [SiON₃] environments, with the −68.2 ppm peak corresponding to an [SiO₂N₂] environment.     

Morphology-controlled nonaqueous synthesis of anisotropic lanthanum hydroxide nanoparticles

The preparation of lanthanum hydroxide and manganese oxide nanoparticles is presented, based on a nonaqueous sol-gel process involving the reaction of La(OiPr)₃ and KMnO₄ with organic solvents such as benzyl alcohol, 2-butanone and a 1:1 vol. mixture thereof. The lanthanum manganese oxide system is highly complex and surprising results with respect to product composition and morphology were obtained. In dependence of the reaction parameters, the La(OH)₃ nanoparticles undergo a shape transformation from short nanorods with an average aspect ratio of 2.1 to micron-sized nanofibers (average aspect ratio is more than 59.5). Although not directly involved, KMnO₄ plays a crucial role in determining the particle morphology of La(OH)₃. The reason lies in the fact that KMnO₄ is able to oxidize the benzyl alcohol to benzoic acid, which presumably induces the anisotropic particle growth in [0 0 1] direction upon preferential coordination to the ±(1 0 0), ±(0 1 0) and ±(−110) crystal facets. By adjusting the molar La(OiPr)₃-to-KMnO₄ ratio as well as by using the appropriate solvent mixture it is possible to tailor the morphology, phase purity and microstructure of the La(OH)₃ nanoparticles. Postsynthetic thermal treatment of the sample containing La(OH)₃ nanofibers and β-MnOOH nanoparticles at the temperature of 800 °C for 8 h yielded polyhedral LaMnO₃ and worm-like La₂O₃ nanoparticles as final products.     

La-Ba系氧化物催化剂用于甲烷氧化偶联

以La_2O_3为基础,碱土金属作为第二组分的二元氧化物催化剂均具有较高的生成C_2活性,特别是La-Ba-O系催化剂具有优良的甲烷氧化偶联活性和稳定性,当La/Ba原子比为2.5时,C_2收率可达20.3％。第三组分的添加有助于提高C_2选择性,特别是添加碱金属,可以抑制完全氧化反应,并提高乙烯/乙烷比。在La:Ba:Na=2.5:1:0.1的催化剂上进行了500/小时的寿命实验,在整个反应期间,催化剂的活性和选择性相当稳定。X-射线物相分析表明,新鲜催化剂除有少量的碳酸钡外,主要是氧化镧和氧化钡的混合物。500小时后的物相基本上是氧化镧和碳酸钡。使用前后催化剂的比表面积及表面La和Ba的分布均无改变。较高的CH_4/O_3比对提高C_2选择性有利,当CH_4:O_2=4:1时,C_2选择性和收率分别为65.1％和19.1％。
