Single-crystalline nanobelts and nanorings of Na(2)V(6)O(16)·3H(2)O structures have been facilely synthesized through a direct hydrothermal reaction between NaVO(3) and H(3)PO(4), without the addition of any harmful solvents or surfactants.

After water loss, the anhydrous phase crystallizes from an intermediate amorphous phase and further decomposes into Rb₂SrP₄O₁₂ and SrP₂O₆.

Synthesis and crystal structure of (H3O)2{(Na2(OH)CB[5])2[HV4O12]}Cl · 14H2O

The compound (H₃O)₂{(Na₂(OH)CB[5])₂[HV₄O₁₂]}Cl · 14H₂O is synthesized by heating (120°C) of a mixture of sodium vanadate, cucurbit[5]uril (CB[5]), rubidium chloride, and water in a sealed ampule. According to the X-ray diffraction data, the binding of the [Na₂(OH)]⁺ binuclear cation with CB[5] occurs due to the bidentate coordination of the oxygen atoms of the portals of cucurbit[5]uril to the sodium atoms. The tetranuclear vanadium complex [HV₄O₁₂]^3? serves as a bridge, joining infinite chains {Na₂(OH)CB[5]} _∞ ⁺ in pairs.     

Magnetic and optical investigation of 40SiO2·30Na2O·1Al2O3·(29 − x)B2O3·xFe2O3 glass matrix

Samples of 40SiO₂·30Na₂O·1Al₂O₃·(29 − x)B₂O₃·xFe₂O₃ (mol%), with 0.0 ≤ x ≤ 17.5, were prepared by the fusion method and investigated by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), optical absorption (OA) and Mössbauer spectroscopy (MS). The EPR spectra of the as-synthesized samples exhibit two well-defined EPR signals around g = 4.27 and g = 2.01 and a visible EPR shoulder around g = 6.4, assigned to isolated Fe³⁺ ion complexes (g = 4.27 and g = 6.4) and Fe³⁺-based clusters (g = 2.01). Analyses of both EPR line intensity and line width support the model picture of Fe³⁺-based clusters built in from two sources of isolated ions, namely Fe²⁺ and Fe³⁺; the ferrous ion being used to build in iron-based clusters at lower x-content (below about x = 2.5%) whereas the ferric ion is used to build in iron-based clusters at higher x-content (above about x = 2.5%). The presence of Fe²⁺ ions incorporated within the glass template is supported by OA data with a strong band around 1100 nm due to the spin-allowed ⁵E_g–⁵T_2g transition in an octahedral coordination with oxygen. Additionally, Mössbauer data (isomer shift and quadrupole splitting) confirm incorporation of both Fe²⁺ and Fe³⁺ ions within the template, more likely in tetrahedral-like environments. We hypothesize that ferrous ions are incorporated within the glass template as FeO₄ complex resulting from replacing silicon in non-bridging oxygen (SiO₃O⁻) sites whereas ferric ions are incorporated as FeO₄ complex resulting from replacing silicon in bridging-like oxygen silicate groups (SiO₄).
