Effect of the anionic composition and pH on the dissolution kinetics of chromium(III) oxide and chromium(III) hydroxide oxide in acids

Based on an experimental investigation of the effects of the pH and anionic composition on the dissolution rate of chromium(III) oxide α-Cr₂O₃ and chromium(III) hydroxide oxide α-CrOOH and subsequent modeling of the process, it is demonstrated that, depending on the pH, the rate-controlling stage of the dissolution is the CrOH²⁺ or CrHSO ₄ ²⁺ sobulization.     

Crystal and molecular structures of bis(2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-3-methylaminoheptan-5-onate) copper(II) and nickel(II)

Two bis-chelates M(tmih)₂ (M = Cu(II), Ni(II), tmih = (CH₃)₃C(NCH₃)CHCOC(CH₃)₃)^? are synthesized and their crystal structures are determined using XRD (Bruker APEX-II diffractometer with a CCD detector, λMoK _α, λCuK _α, graphite monochromator, T = 240(2) K and 296(2) K): Cu(tmih)₂ (I) (space group P2₁/c, a = 12.9670(8) Å, b = 18.4921(9) Å, c = 11.0422(6) Å, β = 93.408(4)°, V = 2643.1(3) ų, Z = 4) and Ni(tmih)₂ (II) (space group P2₁/c, a = 12.810(2) Å, b = 18.529(2) Å, c = 11.243(2) Å, β = 91.959(7)°, V = 2667.1(6) ų, Z = 4). The complexes are isostructural; the coordination polyhedron of metal atoms is a flattened tetrahedron formed from two O atoms (Cu-O of 1.901(2) Å, 1.892(2) Å, Ni-O of 1.845(2) Å, 1.833(2) Å) and two N atoms (Cu-N of 1.976(3) Å, 1.972(3) Å, Ni-N of 1.911(2) Å, 1.920(2) Å) of the ligand; the chelate OMN angles (M = Cu(II), Ni(II)) are in the 87.4–93.1° range; the OMO and NMN angles are 162.2° and 167.2° in I, 171.1° and 173.2° in II. The complexes have the molecular structures formed from isolated molecules bonded by van der Waals interactions. Using a quantum chemical hybrid M06 method, the structures of copper(II) chelates with the H, CH₃, CH₂CH₃, CH(CH₃)₂, and C(CH₃)₃ substituents at the nitrogen atom are calculated. Found that with a bulky substituent at the nitrogen atom, the formation of chelates is hindered due to the intraligand repulsion between the atoms of this substituent and the tert-butyl group.

Saturation-dip measurements in the 2ν<Subscript>2</Subscript> overtone band of OCS with a CO<Subscript>2</Subscript>-laser/microwave-sideband spectrometer

We have employed a CO₂-laser/microwave-sideband spectrometer to carry out saturation-dip sub-Doppler measurements of a number of 2₂ overtone transitions of OCS in the 10-m region. The OCS frequencies have been obtained with an absolute accuracy of order ±37 kHz, as determined from a careful analysis of the combined uncertainties in the frequency of our Lamb-dip-locked laser and the centers of the observed OCS saturation signals. Our ±37 kHz measurement accuracy is consistent with literature OCS sub-Doppler data obtained on a similar instrument. The results serve to extend the comb of precise reference frequencies in the 10-m region and to determine the magnitudes of systematic and random uncertainties of our CO₂ laser.
