Synthesis,spectroscopy, and quantum-chemical calculations on 1-substituted phenyl-3,5-diphenylformazans

In this study 1-substituted phenyl-3,5-diphenylformazans were synthesized from benzaldehyde-N-phenylhydrazone and appropriate phenyldiazonium salts having CH₃, Br, and Cl at the o-, m-, and p-positions of 1-phenyl ring. Their structures were determined by infrared and ultraviolet–visible spectra. Bathochromic effect in accordance with the electron-donating effect of CH₃, Br, and Cl group and its magnitude were dependent upon type and position of substituent on the ring. The ground-state geometries and absorption wavelengths for 1-phenyl substituted formazans were studied with density functional theory and time-dependent density functional theory. The calculations were carried out by using PBE1PBE functional with 6-311G(2d,2p) basis set for λ_max of the UV–vis spectra for the studied formazans. A good agreement was obtained between the experimental and computed values.

The [UO₂(NO₃)₄]²⁻ complex anion in compounds I and II contains two monodentate and two bidentate cyclic nitrato groups, and the coordination number of uranyl is 6. The 18C6 molecule in the structure of compound II has the classic crown conformation and combined with the ammonium ion by three hydrogen bonds. Compounds I and II formed by electrostatic attraction forces between counterions are stabilized by (NH₄⁺)NH...O(NO₃⁻) interionic hydrogen bonds.     

Thermal energy rate constants for the reactions NO2 + Cl2 → Cl2 + NO2, Cl2 + NO2 → Cl + NO2Cl,SH + NO2 → NO2 + SH,SH + Cl2 → Cl2 + SH,and S + NO2 → NO2 + S

It is found that charge-transfer on NO⁻₂ with Cl₂ is fast at thermal energy. The Cl⁻₂ ion reacts with NO₂ to produce Cl⁻ and NO₂Cl, and SH⁻ charge-transfers rapidly with both Cl₂ and NO₂. From the exothermicities implied it is deduced that EA (SH)<EA (NO₂)< EA (Cl₂) or EA (NO₂) = 2.38 ± 0.06 eV and EA (Cl₂ = 2.46 ± 0.14 eV.

Conductivities of the Ternary Systems Y(NO3)3+La(NO3)3+H2O, La(NO3)3+Ce(NO3)3+H2O, La(NO3)3+Nd(NO3)3+H2O and Their Binary Subsystems at Different Temperatures

Electrical conductivities were measured for the ternary systems Y(NO₃)₃+La(NO₃)₃+H₂O, La(NO₃)₃+Ce(NO₃)₃+H₂O, La(NO₃)₃+Nd(NO₃)₃+H₂O, and their binary subsystems Y(NO₃)₃+H₂O, La(NO₃)₃+H₂O, Ce(NO₃)₃+H₂O, and Nd(NO₃)₃+H₂O at (293.15, 298.15 and 308.15) K. The measured conductivities were used to test the generalized Young’s rule and the semi-ideal solution theory. The comparison results show that the generalized Young’s rule and the semi-ideal solution theory can yield good predictions for the conductivities of the ternary electrolyte solutions, implying that the conductivities of aqueous solutions of (1:3 + 1:3) electrolyte mixtures can be well predicted from those of their constituent binary solutions by the simple equations.

Each of two copper atoms (Cu(1) and Cu(2)) π-coordinates the C=C bonds of the allyl groups of the 1-allyl-4-aminopyridinium cations, the oxygen atom of the nitrate ions, and two chlorine atoms. The third copper atom Cu(3) is linearly linked with two chlorine atoms. Particular polymeric fragments are additionally joined by the N-H…O, C-H…O, C-H…Cl hydrogen bonds. The crystal structure of compound II is built-up of the isolated L₂Cu₂(NO₃)₄ fragments (L is the 1-allylquinolinium cation). The metal atom is localized in the trigonal pyramidal coordination environment of three oxygen atoms of the nitrate ions and of the C=C bond of the allyl group of the cation. The particular L₂Cu₂(NO₃)₄ fragments are additionally joined by the C-H…O hydrogen bonds. Original Russian Text ? A.V. Pavlyuk, T. Lis, M.G.

Multiparameter equations of state for siloxanes: [(CH3)3-Si-O1/2]2-[O-Si-(CH3)2]i=1,…,3, and [O-Si-(CH3)2]6

This article presents the continuation of the work on the development of technical equations of state for linear and cyclic siloxanes already documented in this journal. The fluids considered herewith are octamethyltrisiloxane (MDM, C₈H₂₄Si₃O₂), decamethyltetrasiloxane (MD₂M, C₁₀H₃₀Si₄O₃), dodecamethylpentasiloxane (MD₃M, C₁₂H₃₆Si₅O₄), dodecamethylcyclohexasiloxane (D₆, C₁₂H₃₆Si₆O₆). The 12-parameter functional form proposed by Span and Wagner has been selected because of its positive characteristics. Siloxanes are produced in bulk quantities and are mostly utilized in the cosmetics industry and, mixed, as high-temperature heat transfer fluids. Furthermore, they are used as working fluids in high-temperature organic Rankine cycle power plants. The available property measurements are carefully evaluated and selected for the optimization of equation of state parameters. For some of the fluids, experimental values are scarce, therefore ad hoc estimation methods have been used to supply more information to the procedure for the optimization of the parameters of the equation of state. In addition, saturated liquid density and vapor pressure measurements are correlated with the equations proposed by Daubert and Wagner–Ambrose, respectively, to provide short, simple, and accurate equations for the computation of these properties. The recently developed isobaric ideal-gas heat capacity correlation for the selected siloxanes is included in the thermodynamic models. The performance of the newly developed equations of state is tested by comparison with experimental data and also with predictions calculated with the Peng–Robinson–Stryjek–Vera cubic EoS, as this model was adopted in previous technical studies. The new thermodynamic models perform significantly better than cubic equations of state. T–s and P  – v$v$ diagrams for all the substances are also reported.

Crystal structure, phase transitions and ferroelastic properties of [(CH3)2NH2]3[Bi2Cl9]

A sequence of structural phase transitions in [(CH₃)₂NH₂]₃[Bi₂Cl₉] (DMACB) is established on the basis of differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and dilatometric studies. Four phase transitions are found: at 367/369, 340/341, 323/325 and 285/292 K (on cooling/heating). The crystal structure of DMACB is determined at 350 K. It crystallizes in monoclinic space group P2₁/n: a=8.062(2), b=21.810(4), c=14.072(3) Å, β=92.63(3)°, Z=4, R₁=0.0575, wR₂=0.1486. The crystal is built of the double chain anions (“pleated ribbon structure”) and the dimethylammonium cations. Dielectric studies in the frequency range 75 kHz-900 MHz indicate relatively fast reorientation of the dimethylammonium cations over the I, II, III and IV phases. Infrared spectra are recorded in the temperature range 40-300 K and analyzed in region assigned to the symmetric and asymmetric NC₂ stretching vibrations. Optical observations show the existence of the ferroelastic domain structure over all phases below 367 K. The possible mechanisms of phase transitions are discussed on the basis of presented results.     

Thermodynamics of Sr(NO3)2 and Cd(NO3)2 in mixed solvents from viscosity data

The viscosities of Sr(NO₃)₂ and Cd(NO₃)₂ have been determined in dioxane, glycol and methyl alcohol+water mixtures at 10, 20 and 30% by weight. The B values have been computed at different temperatures both from the Jones—Dole and Das's equation. From the B values, the effective rigid molar volume, its change with % of organic solvent, temperature and the ion—solvent interaction have been inferred. Activation parameters have also been calculated and the structure breaking effect has been deduced.     

Synthesis and structures of triphenylbismuth diaroxides Ph3Bi(OAr)2, Ar = C6H3(Br2-2,4), C6H2(Br2-2,6)(NO2-4), and C6H2[(NO2)3-2,4,6]

Triphenylbismuth diaroxides Ph₃Bi(OAr)₂ (Ar = C₆H₃(Br₂-2,4) (I), C₆H₂(Br₂-2,6)(NO₂-4) (II), and C₆H₂[(NO₂)₃-2,4,6] (III) are synthesized in yields up to 74% by the reaction of triphenylbismuth with phenols in the presence of hydrogen peroxide (taken at a molar ratio 1: 2: 1, respectively) in ether. According to X-ray diffraction data, the bismuth atoms in compounds I-III have distorted trigonal-bipyramidal coordination with the aroxyl substituents in the axial positions; the Bi-C, Bi-O bond lengths and the OBiO, CBiC angles vary in the intervals 2.162–2.204, 2.150–2.299 ? and 172.4°–176.1°, 109.6°–139.9°, respectively. Compound II exhibits intramolecular contacts between the central atom and ortho-Br atoms (3.924, 4.101 ?), and compound III has similar contacts of the Bi atom with the O atoms of the ortho-nitro groups (3.114, 3.313 ?).

One-dimensional chains in uranyl tungstates: Syntheses and structures of A8[(UO2)4(WO4)4(WO5)2] (A=Rb, Cs) and Rb6[(UO2)2O(WO4)4]

Three new uranyl tungstates, A₈[(UO₂)₄(WO₄)₄(WO₅)₂] (A=Rb (1), Cs (2)), and Rb₆[(UO₂)₂O(WO₄)₄] (3), were prepared by high-temperature solid-state reactions and their structures were solved by direct methods on twinned crystals, refined to R₁=0.050, 0.042, and 0.052 for 1, 2, and 3, respectively. Compounds 1 and 2 are isostructural, monoclinic P2₁/n, (1): a=11.100(7), b=13.161(9), , β=90.033(13)°, , Z=8 and (2): , , , β=89.988(2)°, , Z=8. There are four symmetrically independent U⁶⁺ sites that form linear uranyl [O=U=O]²⁺ cations with rather distorted coordination in their equatorial planes. There are six W positions: W(1) and W(2) have square-pyramidal coordination (WO₅), whereas W(3), W(4), W(5), and W(6) are tetrahedrally coordinated. The structures are based upon a novel type of one-dimensional (1D) [(UO₂)₄(WO₄)₄(WO₅)₂]⁴⁻ chains, consisting of WU₄O₂₅ pentamers linked by WO₄ tetrahedra and WO₅ square pyramids. The chains run parallel to the a-axis and are arranged in modulated pseudo-2D-layers parallel to (0 1 0). The A⁺ cations are in the interlayer space between adjacent pseudo-layers and provide a 3D integrity of the structures. Compounds 1 and 2 are the first uranyl tungstates with 2/3 of W atoms in tetrahedral coordination. Such a high concentration of low-coordinated W⁶⁺ cations is probably responsible for the 1D character of the uranyl tungstate units. The compound 3 is triclinic, P1¯ a=10.188(2), b=13.110(2), , α=97.853(3), β=96.573(3), γ=103.894(3)°, , Z=4. There are four U positions in the structure with a typical coordination of a pentagonal bipyramid that contain uranyl ions, UO₂²⁺, as apical axes. Among eight W sites, the W(1), W(2), W(3), W(4), W(5), and W(6) atoms are tetrahedrally coordinated, whereas the W(7) and W(8) cations have distorted fivefold coordination. The structure contains chains of composition [(UO₂)₂O(WO₄)₄]⁶⁻ composed of UO₇ pentagonal bipyramids and W polyhedra. The chains involve dimers of UO₇ pentagonal bipyramids that share common O atoms. The dimers are linked into chains by sharing corners with WO₄ tetrahedra. The chains are parallel to [−101] and are arranged in layers that are parallel to (1 1 1). The Rb⁺ cations provide linkage of the chains into a 3D structure. The compound 1 has many structural and chemical similarities to its molybdate analog, Rb₆[(UO₂)₂O(MoO₄)₄]. However, the compounds are not isostructural. Due to the tendency of the W⁶⁺ cations to have higher-than-fourfold coordination, part of the W sites adopt distorted fivefold coordination, whereas all Mo atoms in the Mo compound are tetrahedrally coordinated. Distribution of the WO₅ configurations along the chain extension does not conform to its ‘typical’ periodicity. As a result, both the chain identity period and the unit-cell volume are doubled in comparison to the Mo analog, which leads to a new structure type.
