Determination of lutetium by fluorimetry, using BPMPHD and CTMAB

Lutetium(III) forms an association compound with a new synthetic reagent, 1,6-bi(1-phenyl-3-methyl-5-pyrazolone-4)hexandione (BPMPHD), and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTMAB). The compound enhances the natural fluorescence of BPMPHD remarkably, upon which a new fluorescence method was developed for determining lutetium in rare earth (RE) samples. The determination range was 1.80 × 10^–7–8.8 × 10^–6 g/ml. The determination limit was 29 ng/ml. The composition of the ion associate was [Lu(BPMPHD)₂]–CTMAB⁺.

Alkylation of cobalt and lutetium tetra(3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)dodecachlorophthalocyanine complexes initiated with current

Electrochemical properties of tetra(3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)dodecachlorophthalocyanine complexes of cobalt(II) and lutetium(III) in DMF solutions have been studied. It was suggested that in the presence ofn-butyl bromide, the electrochemically generated monoanionic complexes undergo alkylation at the metal atom. The geometries of the neutral and anionic complexes were calculated by the ZINDO/I semiempirical method. Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Metal carbonyl derivatives of lanthanides. CpLuCl2-induced synthesis of the trinuclear tungsten cluster [Na(DME)3]2[W3(CO)14]

The cluster [Na(DME)₃]₂[W₃(CO)₁₄] (1) was prepared by treating CpLuCl₂ with an equimolar mixture of Na₂W(CO)₅ and Na₂W₂(CO)₁₀ in DME and characterized by X-ray analysis (MoK radiation, 653 reflections,R = 0.125). The crystals are rhombic,a=18.749(4) Å,b=15.074(3) Å,c=9.505(3) Å,Z = 2, space groupC _mmm. The W-W distance in the W-W-W chain is 2.79 Å. The carbonyl ligands at the tungsten atoms are eclipsed. Compound 1 is the first example of a homometallic carbonyl cluster of an early transition metal. It is suggested that CpLuCl₂ interacts with Na₂W(CO)₅ to afford the highly reactive species CpLu (CO)₅ which further reacts with Na₂W₂(CO)₁₀ to form1. Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Complex lanthanide chromate(VI)-phosphates K2R(CrO4)(PO4) (R = Dy-Lu, Y)

The conditions of formation of complex lanthanide chromate(VI)-phosphates K₂R(CrO₄)(PO₄) were found and these compounds were synthesized by solid-state synthesis with variation of the starting compounds, the temperature of synthesis (500–800 °C), and the annealing time (6–200 h). These salts are typical of late lanthanides, R = Dy-Lu, Y. Using lutetium derivatives as examples, it was shown that no similar compounds with lithium or sodium are formed. All the complex chromate(VI)-phosphates obtained decompose under static conditions at temperatures above 550 °C. They are isostructural and crystallize in the monoclinic system. The unit cell parameters for thulium, ytterbium, and lutetium compounds were calculated. It is shown by IR spectroscopy that PO₄ tetrahedra in the crystal lattice of potassium lanthanide chromate(VI)-phosphates are substantially distorted, whereas the CrO₄ tetrahedra retain the regular tetrahedron symmetry (T _d ).

The reaction of the cyclopentadienyllutetium anthracenide, C₅H₅Lu(C₁₄H₁₀)²⁻(THF)₂ (1), with azobenzene yielded the [C₅H₅(THF)Lu(μ−η²:η²−PhN—NPh)]₂(THF)₂ (2) binuclear complex. The structure of the reaction product was established by X-ray structural analysis. The dynamic behavior of complex2 in a THF-d₈ solution was studied by¹H NMR spectroscopy in the temperature range of 265–330 K. Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Synthesis of yttrium,lanthanum, neodymium,praseodymium, and lutetium alkoxides and acetylacetonates

A convenient and practical method is proposed for the synthesis of lanthanide and yttrium alkoxides. The method involves dissolving the metals or their hydrides in a solution of dry HCl in the corresponding alcohol, with subsequent dehalogenation of the LnCl₃ solution by an equivalent amount of alkali metal (Na, Li), The rareearth alkoxides are easily converted into acetylacetonates Ln(acac)₃ by the action of acetylacetone.A.
