Synthesis, crystal structure and optical properties of the new lead fluoride borate—Pb2BO3F

A new compound, Pb₂BO₃F, has been grown by high temperature solution method from the PbO–PbF₂–B₂O₃ system for the first time. The crystal structure of this compound has been identified by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. It crystallizes in the hexagonal system, space group P6₃/m (No. 176) with unit-cell parameters a=7.2460(3) Å, c=14.5521(17) Å, Z=6, V=661.69(9) ų. Its structure was solved by the direct methods and refined to R₁=0.0163 and wR₂=0.0367. The structure of Pb₂BO₃F consists of the distorted PbO₃F₂ groups and BO₃ triangles, which are all symmetric with each other in the gestalt structure to the extent that the Pb₂BO₃F compound crystallizes in the symmetric space group. The powder X-ray diffraction pattern of the Pb₂BO₃F has been measured. The BO₃ functional groups presented in the sample were identified by FTIR spectrum. The DTA curve of Pb₂BO₃F suggests that Pb₂BO₃F melts congruently at 448 °C.     

Voltammetric sensing of paracetamol, dopamine and 4-aminophenol at a glassy carbon electrode coated with gold nanoparticles and an organophillic layered double hydroxide

A differential pulse voltammetric method was developed for the simultaneous determination of paracetamol, 4-aminophenol and dopamine at pH 7.0 using a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) coated with gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and a layered double hydroxide sodium modified with dodecyl sulfate (SDS-LDH). The modified electrode displays excellent redox activity towards paracetamol, and the redox current is increased (and the corresponding over-potential decreased) compared to those of the bare GCE, the AuNPs-modified GCE, and the SDS-LDH-modified GCE. The modified electrode enables the determination of paracetamol in the concentration range from 0.5 to 400???M, with a detection limit of 0.13???M (at an S/N of 3). The sensor was successfully applied to the stimultaneous determination of paracetamol and dopamine, and of paracetamol and 4-aminophenol, respectively, in pharmaceutical tablets and in spiked human serum samples.

Solvothermal syntheses and crystal structures of two new thiogermanates [M(dap)3]4Ge4S10Cl4 (M?=?Co, Ni) with metal complexes as counterions

Abstract  

Two new transition-metal thiogermanates [M(dap)₃]₄Ge₄S₁₀Cl₄ (M = Co, Ni; dap = 1,2-propanediamine) have been solvothermally synthesized and structurally characterized. The two thiogermanates are isostructural and consist of discrete Ge₄S₁₀⁴⁻ adamantane-like ions, free Cl⁻ ions, and [M(dap)₃]²⁺ cations as counterions. The Ge₄S₁₀⁴⁻ anion is built from corner-sharing connection of four GeS₄⁴⁻ tetrahedra. Although some chalcogenidogermanates have been obtained by use of in situ generated transition-metal complexes as structure-directing agents under mild solvothermal conditions, their anions are usually dimeric [Ge₂Q₆]⁴⁻ (Q = S, Se) species. The new thiogermanates are rare examples of adamantane-like (Ge₄S₁₀⁴⁻) thiogermanates combined with transition-metal complexes. Their optical properties have been investigated by UV–Vis spectra.     

Bifunctional cinchona alkaloids-catalyzed asymmetric [4+2] cycloaddition reaction of β,γ-unsaturated α-keto esters with oxazolones

A highly enantioselective [4+2] cycloaddition reaction of β,γ-unsaturated α-keto esters with oxazolones was realized with readily available cinchona alkaloids as the catalysts. Using this reaction, a series of highly functionalized δ-lactones with adjacent α-quaternary-β-tertiary stereocenters were obtained in high yields (up to 97%) and with good-to-excellent enantioselectivities (up to 97% ee).     

Double asymmetric induction as a mechanistic probe: the doubly diastereoselective conjugate addition of enantiopure lithium amides to enantiopure α,β-unsaturated esters and enantiopure α,β-unsaturated hydroxamates

The doubly diastereoselective conjugate addition of the antipodes of lithium N-benzyl-N-(α-methylbenzyl)amide to a range of enantiopure α,β-unsaturated esters [derived from Corey’s 8-phenylmenthol chiral auxiliary] and enantiopure α,β-unsaturated hydroxamates [derived from our ‘chiral Weinreb amide’ auxiliary (S)-N-1-(1′-naphthyl)ethyl-O-tert-butylhydroxylamine] has been used as a mechanistic probe to determine the reactive conformations of these acceptors.

A DFT Study on the Stable Structures and Dissociation Mechanism of C3O6 Cluster

Using geometrical optimization and DFT method at the B3LYP/6-31G (d) level, nineteen equilibrium geometries were identified, and three transition states of dissociation reaction of C3O6 clusters were also found. The vibrational frequencies and intrinsic reaction coordinate (IRC) verification at the same level were computed to verify the transitions. And then we calculated the dissociation energies and analyzed the dissociation channels. The computational results show that the dissociation energies of C3O6 isomers relative to three CO2 are between 1.509 × 103 and 10.61 × 103 kJ·kg-1, and the energy barriers of the reactions are 92.857, 131.138 and 185.793 kJ·mol-1. Both the high dissociation energies and high energy barriers show that C3O6 clusters studied in this paper are stable enough to be used as high-energy-density materials.
