Bond Valence Sum Analysis of Tl（Ⅰ） and Tl（Ⅲ） Complexes with O and N Donors

The influence of the lone pair of electrons in thallium complexes is analyzed using the bond valence sum method.Bond length data for metal-organic Tl complexes were obtained from the Cambridge Structural Database(CSD),and problems with searching the CSD file for Tl complexes are discussed.The recommended R0 values for Tl(Ⅰ)-O of 2.162 ,Tl(Ⅲ)-O of 2.016 ,Tl(Ⅰ)-N of 2.286 ?,and for Tl(Ⅲ)-N of 2.014  used with b = 0.37 were derived from analyses of homoleptic Tl-O,Tl-N,and heteroleptic Tl-O and-N metal organic complexes.These R0 values can be used to assign correctly the oxidation state of Tl in complexes containing any combination of Tl-O or Tl-N bonds.Examples of questionable oxidation states for Tl complexes are given.The R0 value for Tl(Ⅲ)-Cl of 2.300  was also determined.

新型取代硅桥联茂稀土化合物的合成及在纳米级氢化钠助催化剂作用下高活性催化甲基丙烯酸甲酯聚合的研究

The synthesis and characterization of four new silicon-linked lanthanocene complexes with pendant phenyl groups on cyclopentadiene were reported. Based on the data of elemental analyses, MS and IR, the complexes were presumed to be unsolvated and dimeric complexes [Me2Si(C5H3CMe2C6H5)2LnC1]2 [Ln=Er (1), Gd (2), Sm (3), Dy (4)]. In conjunction with AlEt3 or sodium hydride as the co-catalyst, these complexes could efficiently catalyze the polymerization of methyl methacrylate (MMA). When the nanometric sodium hydride was used as a co-catalyst, the complexes were highly effective for the polymerization of MMA. At low temperature and in short time, in [MeESi(C5H3CMe2C6H5)2LnC1]2/NaH (nanometric) system, the polymer was obtained in more than 80% yield and the molecular weight was greater than 105. The activity reached that of organolanthanide hydride as a single-component catalyst. In ]MeESi(C5H3CMe2C6H5)2ErC1]2/Nail (nanometric) system, the effects of the molar ratio of MMA/catalyst and catalyst/co-catalyst, and the temperature on polymerization were studied.     

Synthesis of New Ruthenium（Ⅱ）Bipyridyl Complexes and Studies on Their Photophysical and Photoelectrochemical Properties

Two new mixed-ligand ruthenium(Ⅱ） complexes,Ru(dcbpy)-(LL)NCS)2[where dcbpy=4,4‘-dicarboxyl-2,2‘‘-bipyridine,LL=4,4‘-bis(N-methyl-anilinomethyl)-2,2‘‘-bipyridine(2)],were synthesized,and the tphotophysical properties of these complexes were studied.The metal-to-ligand charge transfer (MLCT) transitions of these complexes exhibited solvatochromic effect due to the existence of NCS ligands.The MLCT energies also strongly depend on the pH values of the solutions because of protonation and deprotonation of the carboxyl groups.The pKa values of the ground state,4.0 for 1 and 3.8 for 2,were obtained from the titration curves.The photoelectrochemical properties of 1 and 2 as sensitizers in sandwich-type solar cells have been studied.Complex 1 exhibited better photoelectrochemical behavior than complex 2 as expected.It was proved that the design of mixed-ligand complex by introducing electron donating group in one of the ligands should be a promising approach.     

New Copper（Ⅱ） and Nickel（Ⅱ） Complexes of 4-Morpholinoacetophenone Thiosemicarbazone： Structural, Electrochemical and Antimicrobial Studies

4-Morpholinoacetophenone thiosemicarbazone, MAPT, and its nickel（Ⅱ） and copper（Ⅱ） complexes have been prepared and characterized by elemental analysis, magnetic susceptibility, spectral methods （FT-IR, ^1H NMR） and cyclic voltammetry. Electrochemical behaviors of the complexes have been studied by cyclic voltammetry in DMF media showing metal centered reduction processes for both of them. The redox properties, nature of the electrode processes and the stability of the complexes were discussed. [Cu（MAPT）2]Cl2 complex shows Cu（Ⅱ）/Cu（Ⅰ） couple and quasi-reversible wave associated with the Cu（Ⅲ）/Cu（Ⅱ） process. The reduction/oxidation potential values depend on the structures of complexes. Also, the antimicrobial activities of these complexes were determined against S. aureus, E. coli and B. subtilis.     

CeAlPO-5分子筛催化剂上二苯基甲烷选择性氧化生成二苯甲酮(英文)

Selective oxidation of diphenylmethane to benzophenone requires active and selective catalysts. The framework incorporation of cerium in AlPO-5 molecular sieves creates active cerium sites in isolation. These active sites are responsible for selective oxidation. Cerium incorporated AlPO-5 with different Al/Ce ratios were synthesized, and the vapor phase oxidation of diphenylmethane in air over these catalysts was studied at 250, 275, 300, 325, and 350 °C. The diphenylmethane conversion and selectivity for benzophenone were more than 90%. CeAlPO-5(25) was found to be more active than other catalysts. The stability of the catalyst was verified by the time on stream study which indicated steady diphenylmethane conversion and benzophenone selectivity. Hence framework incorporated CeAlPO-5 molecular sieves are stable and active catalysts for the selective oxidation of diphenylmethane.     

A DFT Investigation on Hydrogen Adsorption Based on Alkali-metal Organic Complexes

Using density functional theory calculation based on the B3LYP method,we have studied the interactions of H2 molecules with alkali-metal organic complexes C6H6-nLin(n = 1～3),C6H5Na and C6H5K.A significant part of the electronic charge of M s orbital(Li 2s,Na 3s,K 4s) is donated to phenyl and is accommodated by H2 bonding orbital.For all the complexes considered,each bonded alkali-metal atom can adsorb up to five H2 in molecular form with the mean binding energy of 0.59,0.55 and 0.56 eV/H2 molecule for C6H6-nLin(n = 1～3),C6H5Na and C6H5K,respectively.The kinetic stability of these hydrogen-covered organometallic complexes is discussed in terms of energy gap between HOMO and LUMO.It is remarkable that these alkali-metal organic complexes can store up to 23.80 wt% hydrogen.Therefore,the complexes studied may be used as hydrogen storage materials.     

Efficient aerobic oxidation of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural to 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid on Ru/C catalysts

2,5-Furandicarboxylic(FDCA) is a potential substitute for petroleum-derived terephthalic acid, and aerobic oxidation of5-hydroxymethylfurfural(HMF) provides an efficient route to synthesis of FDCA. On an activated carbon supported ruthenium(Ru/C) catalyst(with 5 wt% Ru loading), HMF was readily oxidized to FDCA in a high yield of 97.3% at 383 K and 1.0 MPa O_2 in the presence of Mg(OH)_2 as base additive. Ru/C was superior to Pt/C and Pd/C and also other supported Ru catalysts with similar sizes of metal nanoparticles(1–2 nm). The Ru/C catalysts were stable and recyclable, and their efficiency in the formation of FDCA increased with Ru loadings examined in the range of 0.5 wt%–5.0 wt%. Based on the kinetic studies including the effects of reaction time, reaction temperature, O_2 pressure, on the oxidation of HMF to FDCA on Ru/C, it was confirmed that the oxidation of HMF to FDCA proceeds involving the primary oxidation of HMF to 2,5-diformylfuran(DFF) intermediate, and its sequential oxidation to 5-formyl-2-furancarboxylic acid(FFCA) and ultimately to FDCA, in which the oxidation of FFCA to FDCA is the rate-determining step and dictates the overall formation rate of FDCA. This study provides directions towards efficient synthesis of FDCA from HMF, for example, by designing novel catalysts more efficient for the involved oxidation step of FFCA to FDCA.
