Crystal and molecular structure and properties of [Ni(4-NH2Py)2(iso-Bu2PS2)2] and [Co(4-NH2Py)(iso-Bu2PS2)2]

The interaction of the Co(iso-Bu₂PS₂)₂ chelate with 4-NH₂Py afforded a paramagnetic complex [Co(4-NH₂Py)(iso-Bu₂PS₂)₂] (μ_eff = 4.53 BM). Single crystals of [Ni(4-NH₂Py)₂(iso-Bu₂PS₂)₂] (I) and [Co(4-NH₂Py)(iso-Bu₂PS₂)₂] (II) were grown and used for X-ray diffraction investigation (X8 APEX diffractometer, MoK _α radiation). Crystals I are monoclinic with unit cell parameters a = 12.5336(5) Å, b = 9.4356(4) Å, c = 16.4095(6) Å; β = 111.351(1)°; V = 1807.4(1) ų; Z = 2, ρ = 1.223 g/cm³, space group P2₁/n. Crystals II are triclinic with unit cell parameters a = 8.7572(4) Å, b = 9.6934(6) Å, c = 18.665(1) Å; α = 79.374(2)°, β = 87.049(2)°, γ = 75.640(2)°; V = 1508.6(1) ų; Z = 2, ρ = 1.259 g/cm³; space group . The structures of I and II are formed by isolated mononuclear molecules. The coordination unit is NiN₂S₄ (octahedron) in I and CoNS₄ (tetragonal pyramid) in II. The 4-NH₂Py molecule is coordinated through the N atom of the heterocycle. Electronic spectroscopy data for II agree with the symmetry of the NS₄ polyhedron found by X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis. The noncoordinated amine groups link the complex molecules via N-H...S hydrogen bonds. __________ Translated from Zhurnal Strukturnoi Khimii, Vol. 46, No. 6, pp.1072–1080, November–December, 2005.

A Binuclear Copper(II) Complex with Two Symmetric End-on Azido Bridges. Synthesis, Spectroscopy, Crystal Structure and Magnetism

A binuclear copper(II) complex with two symmetric end-on azido bridges: [Cu₂(tacn)₂(μ-N₃)₂](ClO₄)² · CH₃OH (1), where tacn = 1,4,7-triazacyclononane, has been synthesized and structurally as well as magnetically characterized. Compound (1) has the discrete binuclear structure, bridged by two end-on N₃⁻ anions. The macrocyclic ligand tacn functions as a terminal ligand. The magnetic data of compound (1) were analyzed by means of Ĥ = −2JŜ₁Ŝ₂ − DŜ_z, leading to J = 2.49 cm⁻¹, g = 2.08, D = ±0.97 cm⁻¹, zJ′ = −0.47 cm⁻¹. The ferromagnetic interaction is discussed on the basis of the structural features and is compared with the model structure of Ruiz.     

Vacancy Contents in MnZn Ferrites From TG Curves

Expressions for calculating the cation vacancy contents of MnZn ferrites from thermogravimetric curves are presented together with some experimental data. In a single-phase MnZn ferrite synthesized by conventional ceramic procedures, the O₂ evolution accompanying ferrite formation follows the formal equation. Mn²⁺ _σα Zn_σβ Fe³⁺ _2σ(1–γ) [V ]_{σ/4(1–2γ)} O₄ =σ'/σ Mn²⁺ _σ(α–2ϕ) Zn_σβ Fe²⁺ _2σθ Mn³⁺ _2σϕ Fe³⁺ _{2σ(1–γ–θ)} [V ]_{σ/4(1–2γ–3ϕ)} O₄ +σ'φ/2O₂ (g) where α and β denote the MnO and ZnO mole fractions in the primary mixture γ=α+β, θ and ϕ depend on the quantities of Fe²⁺ and Mn³⁺ formed, respectively, φ=θ–ϕ and σ'/σ is a function of the former parameters. Even though the relative amounts of Fe²⁺ /Fe³⁺ and Mn²⁺ /Mn³⁺ remain uncertain, the vacancy content [V ] of the ferrite can be determined because it depends on φ alone, which is related to the change in mass of the sample as the synthesis takes place through the equation φ=(1.5–γ) μ_β /μ_O2 (1–m _f /m _i ) Here, m _i and m _f are the masses of the sample before and after O₂ evolution, μ_B is the formula mass of the ferrite and μ_O2 is the O₂ molar mass. Practically vacancy-free single-phase MnZn ferrite samples were obtained by sintering in air at 1250°C and cooling in pure N₂ . This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.

Nine-coordinate rare earth metal complexes with aminopolycarboxylic acids: Mononuclear (NH4)3[TbIII(ttha)]·5H2O and binuclear (NH4)4[Tb 2 III (dtpa)2]·9H2O

The two title coordination compounds, (NH₄)₃[Tb^III(ttha)]·5H₂O (ttha = triethylenetetramine-N,N,N′,N″,N‴,N‴-hexaacetic acid) and (NH₄)₄[Tb ₂ ^III (ttha)]·9H₂O (dtpa = diethylenetriamine-N,N,N′,N″,N″-pentaacetic acid), have been prepared and characterized by FT-IR, elemental analyses, TG-DTA and single crystal X-ray diffraction techniques. The (NH₄)₃[Tb^III(ttha)]·5H₂O compound is monoclinic, P2₁/c; a = 10.398(1) Å, b = 12.791(1) Å, c = 23.199(2) Å; β = 90.914(2)°; V = 3084.9(5) ų; Z = 4; D _calc = 1.704 g/cm³; μ(MoK _α ) = 2.376 mm^™; R = 0.023 and wR ² = 0.049 for 5429 observed reflections with I ≥ 2σ(I). The [Tb^III(ttha)]³⁻ complex anion in the crystal has a nine-coordinate mononuclear molecular structure with pseudo-monocapped square-antiprismatic configuration. The (NH₄)₄[Tb ₂ ^III (dtpa)₂]·9H₂O compound is triclinic, P-1; a = 9.739(1) Å, b = 10.010(1) Å, c = 12.968(2) Å; α= 85.890(2)°, β = 77.338(2)°, γ = 77.587(2)°; V = 1204.2(2) ų; Z = 1; D _calc = 1.832 g/cm³; μ(MoK _α ) = 3.015 mm^™; R = 0.024 and wR ² = 0.060 for 4750 observed reflections with I ≥ 2σ(I). The [Tb ₂ ^III (dtpa)₂]₄₋ complex anion has a binuclear structure in the crystal; the two Tb^III centers are equivalent and have a nine-coordinate environment with the same pseudo-tricapped trigonal-prismatic configuration. The thermal analysis revealed that the coordination cores of the (NH₄)₃[Tb^III(ttha)]·5H₂O and (NH₄)₄[Tb ₂ ^III (dtpa)₂]·9H₂O compounds are stable up to 221°C and 252°C, respectively.

Crystallochemistry of mercury chalcogenides. IV. Crystalline structure of two polymorphous modifications of the mercury sulfochalcogenide Hg3S2Br1.5Cl0.5

Two modifications of a new mercury sulfohalide of Hg₃S₂Br_2−x Cl_x (x = 0.5) composition have been grown from the gas phase and explored by X-ray structural analysis. The compounds were obtained at an attempt to synthesize an analogue of the rare mineral arzakite Hg₃S₂(Br, Cl)₂ (Br > Cl). The refinement of the crystalline structures of monoclinic (I) and cubic (II) phases (I: a = 17.824(4) Å, b = 9.238(2) Å, c = 10.269(2) Å, β = 115.69(1)°, V = 1523.8(5) ų, space group C2/m, Z = 8, R = 0.0513; II: a = 18.248(2) Å, V = 6076.4(12) ų, space group Pm3ˉn, Z = 32, R = 0.038) has shown that they are polymorphous modifications of the compound of Hg₃S₂Br_1.5Cl_0.5 formula. The monoclinic modification I is isostractural to the synthetic compound α-Hg₃S₂Br₂. Modification II is isostructural to synthetic β-Hg₃S₂Cl₂. In both structures, each atom S has in its surrounding three atoms of Hg forming umbrella-type groups SHg₃ with spaces Hg—S 2.366–2.430 Å and angles HgSHg 95.66–97.60°. SHg₃-fragments are bound by Hg-apices with the formation of isolated cubic groups [Hg₁₂S₈]. Like that in other structures of mercury chalcohalides, the main role in structure-forming of the investigated compounds is played by atoms of halogens creating a cubic sublattice in which radicals Hg—S are arranged.

Kinetics of the Reactions between [(RS)2Fe(µ-S)2M(µ-S)2Fe(SR)2] n− (M = Mo, R = Ph, n = 2; M = V, R = Et, n = 3) and [Fe(SR)4]2−: Key Steps in the Assembly of Cuboidal Fe—S-based Clusters

The reaction of [S₂Mo(μ-S)₂Fe(SPh)₂]²⁻ with [Fe(SPh)₄]²⁻ produces the dicuboidal cluster [{MoFe₃S₄(SPh)₃}₂(μ-(SPh)₃]³⁻ in a three stage process studied by ¹H-n.m.r. spectroscopy and stopped-flow spectrophotometry. The initial stage involves the formation of the linear trinuclear [(PhS)₂Fe(μ-S)₂Mo(μ-S)₂Fe(SPh)₂]²⁻ and the kinetics indicate an equilibrium reaction (k₁^Mo = 2.5±0.3x 10² dm³ mol⁻¹ s⁻¹, k₋₁^Mo = 0.8±0.1 s⁻¹). The second stage involves the reduction of [(PhS)₂Fe(μ-S)₂Mo(μ-S)₂Fe(SPh)₂]²⁻ by [Fe(SPh)₄]²⁻ to form [(PhS)₂Fe(μ-S)₂Mo(μ-S)₂Fe(SPh)₂]³⁻ which subsequently rearranges to form the voided cuboidal [MoFe₂S₄(SPh)₃]²⁻. The kinetics of the second stage exhibits a simple first order dependence on the concentrations of both [(PhS)₂Fe(μ-S)₂Mo(μ-S)₂Fe(SPh)₂]³⁻ and [Fe(SPh)₄]²⁻ (k₂^Mo = 25 ± 2 dm³ mol⁻¹ s⁻¹). The Kinetics of the third stage have not been studied but must involve incorporation of the final Fe and formation of the dicuboidal [{MoFe₃S₄(SPh)₃}₂(μ-SPh)₃]³⁻. The kinetics of the reaction between [(EtS)₂Fe(μ-S)₂V(μ-S)₂Fe(SEt)₂]³⁻ and [Fe(SEt)₄]²⁻ to form [{VFe₃S₄(SEt)₃}₂(μ-SEt)₃]³⁻ have also been studied. An important difference between this reaction and the formation of the analogous [{MoFe₃S₄(SPh)₃}₂(μ-SPh)₃]³⁻ is that the formation of [{MoFe₃S₄(SPh)₃}₂(μ-SPh)₃]³⁻ from [(PhS)₂Fe(μ-S)₂Mo(μ-S)₂Fe(SPh)₂]²⁻ involves a change in the redox state of the cluster, whilst the formation of [{VFe₃S₄(SEt)₃}₂(μ-SEt)₃]³⁻ from [(EtS)₂Fe(μ-S)₂V(μ-S)₂Fe(SEt)₂]³⁻ requires no change in redox state. The reaction between [(EtS)₂Fe(μ-S)₂V(μ-S)₂Fe(SEt)₂]³⁻ and [Fe(SEt)₄]²⁻ involves two stages. The kinetics of the faster phase is associated with a rate law analogous to that observed for the reaction between [(PhS)₂Fe(μ-S)₂Mo(μ-S)₂ Fe(SPh)₂]²⁻ with [Fe(SPh)₄]²⁻: a first order dependence on the concentrations of [(EtS)₂Fe(μ-S)₂V(μ-S)₂Fe(SEt)₂]³⁻ and [Fe(SEt)₄]²⁻ (k₂^V = 1.1±0.1 x 10³ dm³ mol⁻¹ s⁻¹. This observation indicates that whilst there is no change in redox state between [(EtS)₂Fe(μ-S)₂V(μ-S)₂Fe(SEt)₂]³⁻ and [{VFe₃S₄(SEt)₃}₂(μ-SEt)₃]³⁻, reduction is necessary to catalyse the conversion of the linear [(EtS)₂Fe(μ-S)₂V(μ-S)₂Fe(SEt)₂]³⁻ into the voided cuboidal [VFe₂S₄(SEt)₃]³⁻. The results of the studies reported in this paper together with those on other putative reactions involved in the assembly of cuboidal clusters, have been combined to present a scheme of the mechanism of cuboidal cluster assembly.

通过在不同pH值下的简易水热法合成不同Yb³⁺离子（n_YB³⁺/n_Lu³⁺=5%~15%）和Er³⁺离子（n_Er³⁺/n_Lu³⁺=1%~5%）掺杂浓度的LuF₃∶Yb³⁺,Er³⁺微晶荧光粉。发现pH值对正交相LuF₃∶Yb³⁺,Er³⁺的合成起着关键作用。在980 nm激发下,LuF₃∶Yb³⁺,Er³⁺荧光体呈现出以523 nm（²H_11/2→⁴I_15/2）和539 nm（⁴S_3/2→⁴I_15/2）为中心的强绿光上转换（UC）发射以及以660 nm（⁴F_9/2→⁴I_15/2）为中心弱红光上转换发射。通过使用X射线衍射（XRD）和光致发光（PL）分析测定了最强发射强度的Er³⁺和Yb³⁺的最佳掺杂浓度。浓度依赖性研究表明,达到最强的绿光上转换发光时最佳掺杂浓度为10% Yb³⁺,2% Er³⁺。通过改变泵浦功率来研究LuF₃∶Yb³⁺,Er³⁺荧光粉UC发光机制。通过980 nm二极管激光器在293~573 K的范围内研究了在523和539 nm处的2个绿光UC发射带的荧光强度比（FIR）的温度依赖性,发现在490 K得到最大灵敏度约为15.3×10^-4 K^-1。这表明LuF₃∶Yb³⁺,Er³⁺荧光体可应用于具有高灵敏度的光学温度传感器。

Adsorption of 1-pentanol on bismuth single-crystal plane electrodes

Cyclic voltammetry, impedance and chronocoulometry have been employed for the quantitative study of 1-pentanol (n-PenOH) adsorption at the bismuth single-crystal plane | aqueous Na₂SO₄ solution interface. The adsorption isotherms, Gibbs energies of adsorption ΔG _A ^∘, the limiting surface excess Γ_max and other adsorption parameters, dependent on the crystallographic structure of the electrodes, have been determined. The adsorption of n-PenOH on Bi single-crystal planes is mainly physical and is limited by the rate of diffusion of organic molecules to the electrode surface. Comparison of the adsorption data for n-PenOH with 1-propanol (n-PrOH), 1-butanol (n-BuOH), cyclohexanol (CH) and 1-hexanol (n-HexOH) shows that the adsorption characteristics depend on the structure of the hydrocarbon group. The adsorption activity of adsorbates at the bismuth | solution interface increases in the sequence n-PrOH < n-BuOH < CH ≤ n-PenOH < n-HA as the adsorption activity at the air | solution interface increases. For all the compounds studied, the adsorption activity increases in the sequence of planes (111)<(001)<(011ˉ). Received: 1 July 1998 / Accepted: 2 October 1998

白光LED用Sr0.955Al2Si2-xTixO8：Eu2+荧光粉的晶体结构和光谱特性

由高温固相反应制得Sr_0.955Al₂Si_2-xTi_xO₈：Eu²⁺（x=0~1.0）系列试样,研究了Ti⁴⁺置换Si⁴⁺对其晶体结构和光谱特性的影响。Ti⁴⁺以类质同相替代Si⁴⁺进入晶体晶格中,形成了连续固溶体,其晶胞参数a,b,c,β和晶胞体积V随Ti⁴⁺置换量呈线性递增。Ti⁴⁺置换Si⁴⁺对晶胞参数c的影响显著,b其次,a最小。荧光激发谱为宽带,位于230~400nm,由267nm、305nm、350nm和375nm 4个峰拟合成,表观峰值位于351nm;随着Ti⁴⁺置换量的增加,半高宽（FWHM）从105nm减小到93nm。发射光谱位于380~600nm,表观峰值位于407nm,可由406nm和441nm两峰拟合而成并且随Ti⁴⁺置换量增加线性红移,Ti⁴⁺进入晶格对长波长发射中心影响较少;Ti⁴⁺置换量为1.0时,表观发射峰位从407nm红移至417nm;利用试样荧光光谱和VanUitert经验公式,得出SrAl₂Si₂O₈：Eu²⁺中Sr²⁺的配位数为9。随着Ti⁴⁺置换量Si⁴⁺进入基质晶格,造成Eu-O距离变小,使得Eu²⁺所处的晶体场强度增强,发光中心Eu²⁺的5d能级分裂增大,造成Eu²⁺最低发射能级重心下移,两拟合谱峰峰位均呈线性红移。
