Synthese und Struktur von Vanadium(III)- und Vanadium(IV)-silanolaten

Synthesis and Structures of Vanadium(III) and Vanadium(IV) Silanolates The syntheses of the new and partially known vanadium(III)-silanolate complexes [{V(OSiMe^t₂Bu)₃}₂(THF)] ( 1 ), [Li(THF)₂V(OSiMe^t₂Bu)₄] ( 2 ), [V(OSiMe^t₂Bu)(lut)] ( 3 ), V(OSiPh₃)₃(THF)₃ ( 4 ), [Li(THF)₄][V(OSiPh₃)₄](THF)₂ ( 5 ), [Li(DME)VMes(OSiMe^t₂Bu)₃] ( 7 ), [Li(THF)₄][VMes · (OSiPh₃)₃] ( 8 ), [Li(THF)₄][VMes₃(OSiMe^t₂Bu)] ( 9 ), and Na[VMes₃(OSiPh₃)](THF)₄ ( 10 ) as well as the vanadium(IV) compounds [V(OSiPh₃)₄] ( 6 ), [VMes₃(OSiMe^t₂Bu)] ( 11 ) and [VMes₃(OSiPh₃)] ( 12 ) are reported. In most cases the vanadium atom displays a coordination number of four. The dimeric structure of 1 with coordination numbers of four and five, respectively, has been deduced from molecular mass measurements, mass spectrometry and its magnetic properties. The crystal structures of compounds 2 , 4 , 5 , 9 and 11 were resolved. Complex 2 resembles a bridged contact ion pair in which both metal centres are in a tetrahedral coordination environment. In 4 the ligands are arranged trigonal bipyramidally with the THF molecules in the axial positions. Complexes 5 and 9 crystallize in separated ion paires with the vanadium in a tetrahedral coordination sphere. The crystal structure of 11 is analogous to that of 9 but with consequences due to the higher oxidation state. Oxidation of the vanadates(III), e. g. 5 , 9 and 10 , yields the corresponding vanadium(IV) compounds 6 , 11 and 12 .     

Vanadium (IV) porphyrins: synthesis and spectro-chemical characterization of thiovanadyl porphyrins. Exafs structural study of thio (2, 3, 7, 8, 12, 13, 17, 18 - octaethylporphyrinato) vanadium (IV).

The action of elemental sulfur with vanadium (II) porphyrins complexes [V^II(por)(THF)₂] (por = porphyrinate) affords the thiovanadyl porphyrins [V^IV(por)(S)]. EXAFS spectroscopy at the V K-edge of [V^IV(oep)(S)] confirms the axial symmetry of these complexes.     

Determination of Vanadium(IV) and Vanadium(V) in Benfield Samples by IEC with Conductivity Detection

In this study, the determination of vanadium valence state, V(IV) and V(V) has been achieved using ion-exchange chromatography with conductivity detector. In this method, V(IV) was determined as V(IV)-EDTA complex and V(V) as vanadate ion. Determination of V(IV) was successfully done using 3 mM carbonate/bicarbonate/EDTA at pH 8.6 as the eluent. The additive, EDTA in the mobile phase did not seem to interfere with the V(IV) analysis. The detection of V(V) was achieved with 5 mM disodium hydrogen phosphate buffer at pH 10.4. A linear calibration graph over VO₃ ^? and V(IV) with concentration ranges 5–15 mg L^?1 gave the detection limit at 0.09 and 0.1 mg L^?1, respectively. Both V(IV) and V(V) were successfully determined in Benfield sample, with concentrations of V(IV) and V(V) at 4 and 11,000 mg L^?1, respectively.     

Delocalization and Valence Tautomerism in Vanadium Tris(iminosemiquinone) Complexes

To survey the noninnocence of bis(arylimino) acenaphthene (BIAN) ligands (L) in complexes with early metals, the homoleptic vanadium complex, [V(L)₃] ( 1 ), and its monocation, [V(L)₃]PF₆ ( 2 ), were synthesized. These complexes were found to have a very rich electronic behavior, whereby 1 displays strong electronic delocalization and 2 can be observed in unprecedented valence tautomeric forms. The oxidation states of the metal and ligand components in these complexes were assigned by using spectroscopic, crystallographic, and magnetic analyses. Complex 1 was identified as [V^IV(L^red)(L^.)₂] (L^red=N,N′‐bis(3,5‐dimethylphenylamido)acenaphthylene; L^.=N,N′‐bis(3,5‐dimethylphenylimino)acenaphthenesemiquinonate). Complex 2 was determined to be [V^V(L^red)(L^.)₂]⁺ at T<150 K and [V^IV(L^.)₃]⁺ at T>150 K. Cyclic voltammetry experiments reveal six quasi‐reversible processes, thus indicating the potential of this metal–ligand combination in catalysis or materials applications.

Vanadium Complexes with Tridentate Diacidic Ligands. The Crystal Structures of Bis[acetylacetonato-thiobenzoylhydrazonato(2-)]vanadium(IV), Methoxo-oxo-[salicylaldehyd-thiobenzoylhydrazonato(2-)]vanadium(V), and Methoxo-oxo-[salicylaldehydbenzoylhydrazonato(2-)]methanol Vanadium(V) By template reactions of bis(acetylacetonato)oxovanadium(IV) and bis(salicylaldehydato)oxo-vanadium(IV), respectively, with benzoylhydrazine, thiobenzoylhydrazine, and 2-aminophenol the vanadium(IV) complexes V(LLL)₂ of tridentate azomethine ligands LLL were synthesized. The complexes were characterized by EPR spectroscopy and by absorption spectroscopy. From the complex V(LLL)₂ ( 1 ), in which LLL is acetyl-aceton-thiobenzoydrazonate(2-), the crystal structure analysis was solved. The vanadium atom in 1 is coordinated trigonal-prismatically by two N, 0 and S atoms. Furthermore, the 0x0 vanadium(V) complexes[VO(LLL)(OCH,)] (6) with LLL = salicylaldehyd-thio-benzoylhydrazonato(2-) and [VO(LLL)(OCH₃)· -CH₃OH] (7) with LLL = salicylaldehydbenzoylhydrazonato(2-) were identified by X-ray diffraction and by IR spectroscopy in the reaction products.

Multisensor system for determination of polyoxometalates containing vanadium at its different oxidation states

The electronic tongue (ET) multisensor system has been employed for the detection of metal-oxygen cluster anions (polyoxometalates) containing vanadium (IV/V) atoms. Sensitivity of a variety of potentiometric chemical sensors with plasticized polyvinyl chloride and chalcogenide glass membranes was evaluated with respect to vanadyl/vanadate ions, decavanadate and a series of Keggin-type polyoxometalates (POM) such as α-[SiW₁₁V^IVO₄₀]⁶⁻, α-[SiW₁₁V^VO₄₀]⁵⁻, α-[BW₁₁V^IVO₄₀]⁷⁻, α-[BW₁₁V^VO₄₀]⁶⁻, α-[PW₁₁V^IVO₄₀]⁵⁻ and α-[PW_12−nV_n^VO₄₀]⁽³⁺ⁿ⁾⁻ (n = 1, 2, 3). Sensor's responses to vanadium complexes were evaluated in the pH range of 2.4-6.5 and a set of sensors appropriate for detecting a variety of vanadium species was selected. Such sensor array was able to distinguish different vanadium complexes allowing their simultaneous quantification in binary (V(IV)/V(V)) mixtures. The vanillyl alcohol oxidation with α-[SiW₁₁V^VO₄₀]⁵⁻ was monitored using ET to evaluate the capacity of proposed analytic system to detect simultaneously V(IV)/V(V) in POM under dynamic equilibrium. ET was demonstrated to be a promising tool for the discrimination and quantification of vanadium-containing POMs at different oxidation states. In particular, such a system could represent a significant interest for the mechanistic studies of redox reactions with POMs.     

A non‐oxo methanolate‐bridged divanadium(IV) complex with tris(2‐sulfanidylphenyl)phosphane ligands: synthesis,structural characterization and magnetic investigation

Vanadium chemistry is of interest due its biological relevance and medical applications. In particular, the interactions of high‐valent vanadium ions with sulfur‐containing biologically important molecules, such as cysteine and glutathione, might be related to the redox conversion of vanadium in ascidians, the function of amavadin (a vanadium‐containing anion) and the antidiabetic behaviour of vanadium compounds. A mechanistic understanding of these aspects is important. In an effort to investigate high‐valent vanadium–sulfur chemistry, we have synthesized and characterized the non‐oxo divanadium(IV) complex salt tetraphenylphosphonium tri‐μ‐<!?tlsb=‐0.11pt>methanolato‐κ⁶O:O‐bis({tris[2‐sulfanidyl‐3‐(trimethylsilyl)phenyl]phosphane‐κ⁴P,S,S′,S′′}vanadium(IV)) methanol disolvate, (C₂₄H₂₀P)[V^IV₂(μ‐OCH₃)₃(C₂₇H₃₆PS₃)₂]·2CH₃OH. Two V^IV metal centres are bridged by three methanolate ligands, giving a C2‐symmetric V₂(μ‐OMe)₃ core structure. Each V^IV centre adopts a monocapped trigonal antiprismatic geometry, with the P atom situated in the capping position and the three S atoms and three O atoms forming two triangular faces of the trigonal antiprism. The magnetic data indicate a paramagnetic nature of the salt, with an S = 1 spin state.     

The spectrophotometric determination of vanadium after extraction as vanadium(III) ferronate by tribenzylamine

Vanadium(III) obtained by dithionite reduction of vanadium(V) can be extracted as its ferron complex with tribenzylamine in chloroform from 0.05 M sulphuric acid. Vanadium (0–5 μg ml^-1) is determined spectrophotometrically at 430 nm with a sensitivity of 0.0028 μg V cm^-2. Al(III), Co(II), Ni(II), Fe(II, III), Hg(II), Si(IV), Be(II), Mg(II), Ca(II), Sr(II), Ba(II), Cr(VI, III), W(VI), Zn(II), U(VI), Mn(II). Pb(II), Cu(II), Cd(II) and Th(IV) do not interfere; only Mo(VI), Ti(IV), Zr(IV). Bi(V) and Sn(II) interfere. A single determination takes only 7 min. The extracted complex is V^III (R-3H.TBA)₃ where R = C₉H₄O₄NSI. The method is satisfactory for the determination of vanadium in steels, alum and other samples without preliminary separations.     

Electrochemical Reduction of Vanadium(V)‐Cupferron Complex,VO(cupf)2OH

Electrochemical reduction of vanadium(V) complex with cupferron (N‐nitroso‐N‐phenylhydroxylamine), V^VO(cupf)₂OH, has been studied by polarography in wide potential range to verify the catalytic mechanism of electroreduction of coordinated cupferron ligand. Reduction of the complex was studied in the concentration range from 2 ? 10^?5 M to 10^?3 M. Depending on the process conditions kinetics of catalytic reduction of coordinated cupferron is either controlled by adsorption step or governed by mixed control of diffusion and chemical reaction. Kinetic parameters of the reduction process are reported. Reduction of V^VO(cupf)₂OH complex is accompanied by adsorption and autoinhibition phenomena. V(II) ion in the surface bound complex of vanadium with cupferron catalyzes reduction of coordinated cupferronate ligands. In 1 mM solutions, the catalytic reduction of coordinated cupferron ligand shifts to more cathodic potentials due to formation of a monolayer of adsorbed vanadium(III)‐cupferron complexes. Reduction kinetics in the presence of tetraalkylammonium salt is consistent with multilayer cooperative adsorption of anionic vanadium(II)‐cupferron complex and tetraalkylammonium cations.     

Synthesis,structural characterization and catalytic potential of oxidovanadium(IV) and dioxidovanadium(V) complexes with thiazole-derived NNN-donor ligand

Reaction between the tridentate NNN donor ligand, (E)-2-(2-(1-(pyridin-2-yl)ethylidene)hydrazinyl)benzo[d]thiazole (HL), and V₂O₅ in ethanol gave a new vanadium(V) complex, [VO₂L] (1), while the similar reaction by using [V^IVO(acac)₂] as the metal source gave two different types of crystals related to compounds [VO₂L] (1) and [V^IVO(acac)L] (2). The molecular structures of the complexes were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction and spectroscopic characterization was carried out by means of FT-IR, UV–vis and NMR experiments as well as elemental analysis. The oxidovanadium(IV) and dioxidovanadium(V) species were used as catalyst precursors for olefin oxidation in the presence of hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) as an oxidant. Under similar experimental conditions, the presence of 1 resulted in higher oxidation conversion than 2.     

Untersuchungen an katalytisch aktiven Oberflächenverbindungen. II. Zur Existenz unterschiedlicher Vanadium(V)-oxid-Oberflächenphasen auf SiO2 und ihre katalytischen Eigenschaften

Studies on Catalytically Active Surface Compounds. II. On the Existence of Different Vanadium(V) Oxide Surface Phases on SiO₂ and their Catalytic Properties In dependence on the SiOH concentration of the Aerosil surface two different disperse vanadium(V) oxide phases are obtained, which differ characteristically in their reflexion spectra, their chemisorption behaviour towards butene and their catalytic properties in the oxidation of butene and ethanol. At high values of the original concentration of SiOH groups a δ″ phase is formed which gives after desorption of adsorbed water at 250°C, a reflexion spectrum that points at a tetrahedral coordination of the V^v; this phase shows a relative low activity for both reactions. At a lower original concentration of SiOH a δ″ phase of the vanadium(V) oxide is formed, the reflexion spectrum of which, points at an octahedrally coordinated vanadium(V) oxide. This phase is considerably more active than the former.     

Cationic Homoleptic Vanadium(II), (IV), and (V) Complexes Arising from Protonolysis of [V(NEt2)4]

At least three different cationic species arise in the classic protonolysis of [V^IV(NEt₂)₄] with a borate ammonium salt. The unexpected formation of the vanadium(V ) species [V(NEt₂)₄][B(C₆H₅)₄] (shown in the picture without its counterion) underlines the problem of deducing the true oxidation state of vanadium species in Ziegler–Natta reactions.

The thermal behaviour of non-oxo vanadium(IV) complexes was checked.     

Rapid titrimetric methods for the determination of vanadium and molybdenum in mixtures

Summary A rapid and accurate method has been developed for the volumetric determination of molybdenum(VI) and vanadium(V) in mixtures, using cerium(IV) sulphate. In this procedure the sample solution is reduced in a mercury reductor (to give Mo^V and V^IV) and an aliquot of the reduced solution is titrated with Ce^IV solution using either ferroin, N-phenyl anthranilic acid, or barium diphenylamine sulphate as indicator. This titration gives the amount of molybdenum present, as V^IV does not interfere under the conditions applied. Another aliquot of the reduced solution is titrated with Ce^IV solution and rhodamine 6 G as indicator (observing the quenching of the fluorescence). This titration corresponds to the sum of molybdenum and vanadium. The vanadium content can be calculated by difference.

Zusammenfassung Zur schnellen und genauen volumetrischen Bestimmung von Molybdän(VI) und Vanadium(V) in Mischungen wird Cer(IV)-sulfat als Reagens verwendet. Die Probelösung wird im Quecksilberreduktor reduziert (wobei Mo^V und V^IV gebildet werden) und ein aliquoter Teil der reduzierten Lösung wird mit Ce^IV-Lösung titriert, wobei Ferroin, N-Phenylanthranilsäure oder Bariumdiphenylaminsulfonat als Indicator dient. Aus dieser Titration erhält man den Molybdängehalt, da V^IV unter den angewendeten Bedingungen nicht stört. Ein weiterer Teil der reduzierten Lösung wird mit Ce^IV-Lösung gegen Rhodamin 6 G titriert (Endpunkt durch Fluorescenzlöschung), woraus man die Summe Mo + V erhält. Der Vanadiumgehalt ergibt sich aus der Differenz.

     

Synthesis and characterization of dimeric μ-oxidovanadium complexes as the functional model of vanadium bromoperoxidase

Two vanadium (IV) complexes [V^IVO(Haeae-sal)(MeOH)]⁺ ( 1 ) and [V^IVO(Haeae-hyap)(MeOH)]⁺ ( 2 ) were prepared by reacting [VO(acac)₂] with ligands [H₂aeae-sal] ( I ) and [H₂aeae-hyap] ( II ) respectively. Condensation of 2-(2-aminoethylamino)ethanol with salicylaldehyde and 2-hydroxyacetophenone produces the ligands ( I ) and ( II ) respectively. Both vanadium complexes 1 and 2 are sensitive towards aerial oxygen in solution and rapidly convert into vanadium(V) dioxido species. Vanadium(V) dioxido species crystalizes as the dimeric form in the solid-state. Single-crystal XRD analysis suggests octahedral geometry around each vanadium center in the solid-state. To access the benefits of heterogeneous catalysis, vanadium(V) dioxido complexes were anchored into the polymeric chain of chloromethylated polystyrene. All the synthesized neat and supported vanadium complexes have been studied by a number of techniques to confirm their structural and functional properties. Bromoperoxidase activity of the synthesized vanadium(V) dioxido complexes 3 and 4 was examined by carrying out oxidative bromination of salicylaldehyde and oxidation of thioanisole. In the presence of hydrogen peroxide, 3 shows 94.4% conversion ( TOF value of 2.739 × 10² h⁻¹) and 4 exhibits 79.0% conversion (TOF value of 2.403 × 10² h⁻¹) for the oxidative bromination of salicylaldehyde where 5-bromosalicylaldehyde appears as the major product. Catalysts 3 and 4 also efficiently catalyze the oxidation of thioanisole in the presence of hydrogen peroxide where sulfoxide is observed as the major product. Covalent attachment of neat catalysts 3 and 4 into the polymer chain enhances substrate conversion (%) and their catalytic efficiency increases many folds, both in the oxidative bromination and oxidation of thioether. Polymer supported catalysts 5 displayed 98.8% conversion with a TOF value of 1.127 × 10⁴ h⁻¹ whereas catalyst 6 showed 95.7% conversion with a TOF value of 4.675 × 10³ h⁻¹ for the oxidative bromination of salicylaldehyde. These TOF values are the highest among the supported vanadium catalysts available in the literature for the oxidative bromination of salicylaldehyde.     

Über die Diphosphate M4(P2O7)3 mit M = V,Cr und die Elektronenspektren von Vanadium (III)- und Chrom(III)-Phosphaten

On the Diphosphates M₄(P₂O₇)₃ with M = V, Cr and the Electronic Spectra of Vanadium(III) and Chromium(III) Phosphates Single crystals of ochre colored or dark brown V₄(P₂O₇)₃ ( I ) can be obtained by thermal transformation of an amorphous intermediate synthesized from V₂O₅ and aqueous H₃PO₃ and H₃PO₄; brown crystals of Cr₄(P₂O₇)₃ ( II ) are formed during thermal decomposition of Cr(PO₃)₃, C. I and II are isostructural, crystallizing in orthorhombic space group Pbn2₁ or Pbnm with Z = 4 and lattice constants a = 9.601(2), b = 21.425(5), c = 7.470(4) Å and a = 9.38(1), b = 21.00(4), c = 7.26(2) Å, respectively. Probably due to slight substitution of vanadium(V) for phosphorus atoms (P:V^v ～ 40:1) nonstoichiometic phase composition is found for I prepared at T ～ 1400°C. I and II are characterized by IR and electronic spectroscopy; their electronic spectra are discussed in comparison with those of fourteen other V^III and Cr^III phosphates. This includes a discussion of optical properties of CsCrP₂O₇ changing color from brown to green on change from daylight to artificial light. Some conclusions on the structural arrangement of I and II are drawn.

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of Vanadium(III) Borophosphate, V₂[B(PO₄)₃] By reaction of boron phosphate, BPO₄, and vanadium(IV)‐oxide, VO₂, at 1050 °C a hitherto unknown vanadium(III)‐borophosphate is formed. Its composition was found to be V₂BP₃O₁₂, its structure was elucidated by single crystal X‐ray diffraction, the cell parameters are: a = b = 13.9882Å; c = 7.4515Å; α = β = 90°, γ = 120°; Z = 6; space group: P6 3/m. Noteworthy features of the structure are V₂O₉ units (two V^IIIO₆ octahedra connected via their faces) and isolated trisphosphatoborate groups, B(PO₄)₃. By shared oxide ions, the aforementioned groups are interconnected, thus forming a three dimensional network. The structural relation between the title compound and an analogous chromium compound is discussed.     

Oxidovanadium (IV) and iron (III) complexes with O2N2 donor linkage as plausible antidiabetic candidates: Synthesis,structural characterizations,glucose uptake and model biological media studies

With the upsurging cases of type II diabetic patients, the demand for safe and effective oral antidiabetic drugs is also increasing. Coordination complexes have proven their mettle as efficient oral drug candidates, which thereby motivated us in this work to design new transition metal complexes as plausible candidates for the treatment of diabetes. A reduced salen ligand, {H₂(hpdbal)₂-an} ( 1 ) derived vanadium (IV) and iron (III) complexes, namely, [V^IVO{(hpdbal)₂-an}] ( 2 ) and [{Fe^III (OH₂)((hpdbal)₂-an)}₂ μ₂-SO₄] ( 3 ) were synthesized in this study. The newly obtained ligand and complexes were characterized using usual analytical and spectroscopic techniques. The potential of these compounds in inducing increased glucose uptake by diabetic cells were studied by using insulin resistant HepG2 cells as model diabetic cells and 2-NBDG molecule as a D-glucose analogue and fluorescent tracker. The cells added with the vanadium (IV) complex 3 induced significant NBDG uptake of 95.4% which was higher than that induced by metformin, the standard antidiabetic drug. To elucidate the behavior of the complexes in biological media, model solution studies were conducted with a wide range of pH conditions and protein bovine serum albumin (BSA). The complexes demonstrated effective binding with BSA which was concluded through spectroscopic titration studies and were also found to be sufficiently stable over physiological pH conditions. The study can thus prove to be beneficial in the quest for new antidiabetic drugs.     

Study of the Ternary Complex Formation Between Vanadium(III)-Picolinic Acid and the Amino Acids: Cysteine,Histidine, Aspartic and Glutamic Acids

The complex species formed between vanadium(III)-picolinic acid (HPic) and the amino acids: cysteine (H₂Cys), histidine (HHis), aspartic acid (H₂Asp) and glutamic acid (H₂Glu) were studied in aqueous solution by means of electromotive forces measurements emf(H) at 25 °C and 3.0 mol⋅dm⁻³ KCl as ionic medium. Data analysis using the least-squares program LETAGROP indicates the formation of ternary complexes, whose stoichiometric coefficients and stability constant were determined. In the vanadium(III)-picolinic acid-cysteine system the model obtained was: [V(Pic)(H₂Cys)]²⁺, [V(Pic)(HCys)]⁺, V(Pic)(Cys) and [V₂O(Pic)(Cys)]⁺. The vanadium(III)-picolinic acid-histidine system contained the following complexes: [V(Pic)(HHis)]²⁺, [V(Pic)(His)]⁺, V(Pic)(His)(OH) and [V(Pic)₂(HHis)]⁺. In the vanadium(III)-picolinic acid-aspartic acid system the model obtained was: V(Pic)(Asp), [V(Pic)(Asp)(OH)]⁻ and [V₂O(Pic)(Asp)]⁺ and finally, in the vanadium(III)-picolinic acid-glutamic acid system the complexes: V₂O(Pic)₂(HGlu)₂, V(Pic)(HGlu)₂ and V(Pic)₂(HGlu) were observed.     

Zur heterogenkatalytischen Oxydation und Ammoxydation von Isobuten. 5. Gasphasenoxydation von Methacrolein zu Methacrylsäure an definierten 1:1-Vanadiumphosphaten

On the Heterogen-Catalytical Oxidation and Ammoxidation of Isobutene. 5. Gas-Phase Oxidation of Methacrolein to Methacrylic Acid on Definite 1:1 Vanadium Phosphates For the Oxidation of Methacrolein (MA) to Methacrylic Acid (MAA) definite 1:1 vanadium phosphates were used as test catalysts. (V^IVO)₂P₂O₇ ( 1 ) is directing the reaction with high selectivity to MAA. On using the V^V monophosphates α-( 2 ) and β-VOPO₄ ( 3 ), a valence-mixed “H-V/P mica” (with α-based structure; 46.5% V^IV portion) ( 4 ), and also the new phosphate V^IVO(HPO₄) ( 5 ), however, only a modest selectivity is observed. Whereas the diphosphate 1 was found to be unchanged after the catalytical reaction, in the case of the monophosphates solid state reactions occured during the catalysis: 2 was reduced to a H-V/P mica ( 6 ) with 29% V^IV portion, 4 to the hemi-hydrate V^IV O(HPO₄) · 0.5 H₂O ( 7 ); and from 3 , as new compounds, 5 (see above) and a V^III/V^IV phosphate ( 8 ) were formed. On preparing 5 as a pure phase and using it for the catalysis it mostly remained unchanged; only a minor part was reduced to 8 . – The catalytical action of 1 is discussed.
