Hydrothermal Synthesis and Structure Characterization of Compound Zn（Hpydc）2（H2O）（pydc=pyridine—2,5—dicarboxylate）

1 INTRODUCTION The researches in zinc complexes have been rapidly expanding because of their fascinating structural diversity and potential applications as functional materials and bioloenzymes[1~5]. A lot of compounds of different structural types containing zinc metal have been synthesized and reported[6~9]. In these complexes, the multifunction ligand, such as polyamine, polyacid, and so on, were often elected. In order to obtain more compounds having novel structures, recently, we ch…     

Hydrothermal Synthesis and Structure Characterization of Compound Zn(Hpydc)2(H2O) (pydc=pyridine-2,5-dicarboxylate)①

The hydrothermal reaction of ZnO, H3PO4(85%), (H2NCH2CH2)2NH and H2pydc results in the formation of a discrete mononuclear zinc(II) complex Zn(Hpydc)2(H2O). It crystallizes in monoclinic space group C2/c with a = 17.9947(8), b = 7.1875(3), c = 12.5895(4) (, ( = 110.802(2)o, V = 1522.14(10) (3, Z = 4, Mr = 415.61, (C14H10N2O9Zn), Dc = 1.814g/cm3, μ = 16.71cm－1, F(000) = 840, R = 0.0505, wR = 0.1144. Each zinc(II) is coordinated to two nitrogen and three oxygen atoms of which two nitrogen and two oxygen atoms are from two pydc ligands, and one oxygen atom from the coordinated water molecule to form an irregular polyhedral geometry. The complex is linked further into a three-dimensional structure through the weak interactions of hydrogen bonds between the two oxygen atoms. IR spectrum of the complex is also discussed.     

Hydrogen transfer reaction on the surface of an oxide catalyst

RuO2(110) exposes two kinds of active surface species (acidic and basic centers) that govern the interaction of the gas phase in contact with the catalyst's surface. Here we will elucidate the cooperative interplay of these two active surface sites for a simple model reaction, namely the water formation over RuO2 catalysts when supplying hydrogen and oxygen from the gas phase. The bridging O atoms harvest the hydrogen from the gas phase, while the on-top O atoms pick up those adsorbed hydrogen atoms from the bridging O atoms to form water. This mechanism of hydrogen transfer is mediated by a strong hydrogen bond. Hydrogen transfer is expected to play a vital role for the whole class of catalyzed hydrogenation and dehydrogenation reactions of hydrocarbons over RuO2.     

The structure of the mixed OH + H2O overlayer on Pt[111

The structure of the mixed p(3 x 3)-(3OH + 3H2O) phase on Pt[111] has been investigated by low-energy electron diffraction-IV structure analysis. The OH + H2O overlayer consists of hexagonal rings of coplanar oxygen atoms interlinked by hydrogen bonds. Lateral shifts of the O atoms away from atop sites result in different O-O separations and hexagons with only large separations (2.81 and 3.02 angstroms) linked by hexagons with alternating separations of 2.49 and 2.813.02 angstroms. This unusual pattern is consistent with a hydrogen-bonded network in which water is adsorbed in cyclic rings separated by OH in a p(3 x 3) structure. The top-most two layers of the Pt atoms relax inwards with respect to the clean surface and both show vertical buckling of up to 0.06 angstroms. In addition, significant shifts away from the lateral bulk positions have been found for the second layer of Pt atoms.     

Observation and Identification of an Atomic Oxygen Structure on Catalytic Gold Nanoparticles

Interactions between oxygen and gold surfaces are fundamentally important in diverse areas of science and technology. In this work, an oxygen dimer structure was observed and identified on gold nanoparticles in catalytic decomposition of hydrogen peroxide to oxygen and water. This structure, which is different from isolated atomic or molecular oxygen surface structures, was observed with in situ surface‐enhanced Raman spectroscopic measurements and identified with density functional theory calculations. The experimental measurements were performed using monodisperse 5, 50 and 400 nm gold particles supported on silica with liquid‐phase hydrogen and deuterium peroxides at multiple pH values. The calculations show that on surfaces with coordinatively unsaturated gold atoms, two oxygen atoms preferentially share a gold atom with a bond distance of 0.194–0.196 nm and additionally bind to two other surface gold atoms with a larger bond distance of 0.203–0.213 nm, forming an Au‐O‐Au‐O‐Au structure. The formation of this structure depends on reaction rates and conditions.     

Unusual process of water formation on RuO2(110) by hydrogen exposure at room temperature

The reduction mechanism of the RuO(2)(110) surface by molecular hydrogen exposure is unraveled to an unprecedented level by a combination of temperature programmed reaction, scanning tunneling microscopy, high-resolution core level shift spectroscopy, and density functional theory calculations. We demonstrate that even at room temperature hydrogen exposure to the RuO(2)(110) surface leads to the formation of water. In a two-step process, hydrogen saturates first the bridging oxygen atoms to form (O(br)-H) species and subsequently part of these O(br)-H groups move to the undercoordinated Ru atoms where they form adsorbed water. This latter process is driven by thermodynamics leaving vacancies in the bridging O rows.     

Solvothermal Synthesis and Structure Characterization of a 3D Hydrogen-bonded Copper Compound [Cu(H_2dhpmc)_2]·2H_2O

1 INTRODUCTION The controlled assembly of inorganic and coordination polymers from simple building blocks is an important challenge in the design of high- dimensionality systems. In the crystal engineering 'toolbox'[1], hydrogen bonding moieties are perhaps the implements used the most in the design of such supramolecular systems[2], and have been particularly strongly applied towards the synthesis of molecular magnetic materials[3~6]. Copper complexes play an important role in catalyzin…     

Protonation of phosphovanadomolybdates H(3+x)PV(x)Mo(12-x)O40: computational insight into reactivity

Protonated phosphovanadomolybdates of the Keggin structure, H(3+x)PV(x)Mo(12-x)O(40) where x = 0, 1, 2, and derivatives with surface defects formed by loss of constitutional water were studied using high-level DFT calculations toward determination of the most stable species and possible active forms in oxidation catalysis in both the gas phase and in polar solutions. The calculations demonstrate that protonation at bridging positions is energetically much more favorable than protonation of terminal oxygen atoms. The preferential protonation site is determined by the stability of the metal-oxygen bond rather than the negative charge on the oxygen atom. In H(3)PMo(12)O(40), maximum distances between protons at bridging oxygen atoms are energetically favored. In contrast, for H(4)PVMo(11)O(40) and H(5)PV(2)Mo(10)O(40) protons prefer nucleophilic sites adjacent to vanadium atoms. Up to three protons are bound to the nucleophilic sites around the same vanadium atom in the stable isomeric forms of H(5)PV(2)Mo(10)O(40) that result in strong destabilization of oxo-vanadium(V) bonding to the Keggin unit. Such behavior arises from the different nature of the Mo-O and V-O bonds that can be traced to the different sizes of the valence d orbitals of the metals. Coordination of two protons at the same site yields water and an oxygen defect as a result of its dissociation. The energetic cost for the formation of surface defects decreases in the order: O(t) ? O(c) ? O(e) and is lower for the sites adjacent to vanadium atoms. Vanadium atoms near defects also have a significant contribution to the LUMO. Thus, vanadium-substituted polyoxometalates with defects near and, especially, between vanadium atoms present a plausible active form of polyoxometalates in oxidation reactions.     

Metal carboxylate-phosphonate hybrid layered compounds: synthesis and single crystal structures of novel divalent metal complexes with N-(phosphonomethyl)iminodiacetic acid

Two novel divalent metal complexes with N-(phosphonomethyl)iminodiacetic acid, H(2)O(3)PCH(2)N(CH(2)CO(2)H)(2) (H(4)PMIDA), [Co(2)(PMIDA)(H(2)O)(5)] x H(2)O, 1, and [Zn(2)(PMIDA)(CH(3)CO(2)H)] x 2H(2)O, 2, have been synthesized and structurally characterized. The structure of complex 1 features two different kinds of Co(II) layers, namely, a cobalt phosphonate layer along the <100> plane and a cobalt carboxylate layer along the <300> plane. The Co(II) atoms in the phosphonate layer are octahedrally coordinated by 4 aqua ligands and 2 oxygen atoms from two phosphonic acid groups. Two Co(II) octahedra are bridged by a pair of phosphonic groups into a dimeric unit, and such dimers are interconnected into a layer through hydrogen bonding between aqua ligands. The Co(II) atoms in the carboxylate layer are octahedrally coordinated by a chelating PMIDA ligand, one aqua ligand, and one phosphonic oxygen atom from the neighboring PMIDA ligand. These Co(II) octahedra are interlinked by bridging carboxylic groups into a one-dimensional chain along the c-axis; such chains are held together by hydrogen bonds formed between carboxylic oxygen atoms and lattice water molecules, in such a way as to form a layer along the <300> direction. Two such layers are interconnected into a double layer via hydrogen bonding. These double layers are further interconnected with the Co(II) phosphonate layers through phosphonate tetrahedra along the a direction, resulting in the formation of a complicated three-dimensional network. The crystal structure of 2 contains a metal phosphonate and metal carboxylate hybrid layer along the <202> plane. One of the two zinc atoms in the asymmetric unit is tetrahedrally coordinated by four oxygen atoms from two phosphonic acid groups and two carboxylic groups; the other zinc atom is 5-coordinated by three oxygen atoms and a nitrogen atom from a chelating PMIDA ligand and one oxygen atom from the acetic acid. The above two types of zinc metal ions are interconnected by bridging carboxylic and phosphonic groups, resulting in the formation of a layered structure.     

Synthesis,characterization, and crystal structures of two new divalent metal complexes of N,N'-bis(phosphonomethyl)-1,10-diaza-18-crown-6: a hydrogen-bonded 1D array and a 3D network with a large channel

Reaction of N,N'-bis(phosphonomethyl)-1,10-diaza-18-crown-6 (H(4)L) with copper(II) acetate in 1:1 ethanol/water mixed solvents afforded a new crystal-engineered supramolecular metal phosphonate, Cu(H(2)L) (complex 1). By reaction of the same ligand with cadmium(II) nitrate in a 2:1 (M/L) ratio in methanol, a cadmium(II) complex with a 3D network structure was isolated, Cd(2.75)(L)(H(2)O)(7) x 1.5NO(3) x 7H(2)O x MeOH (complex 2). The copper(II) complex crystallized in the monoclinic space group P2(1)/c, with a =10.125(4), b = 14.103(6), and c = 14.537(6) A, beta = 91.049(8) degrees, V = 2075.4(16) A(3), and Z = 2. The Cu(II) ions in complex 1 are 6-coordinated by two phosphonate oxygen atoms, two nitrogen, and two oxygen atoms from the crown ether ring. Their coordination geometry can be described as Jahn-Teller-distorted octahedral, with elongated Cu-O(crown) distances (2.634(4) and 2.671(4) A for Cu(1) and Cu(2), respectively). The other two crown oxygen atoms remain uncoordinated. Neighboring two Cu(H(2)L) units are further interlinked via a pair of strong hydrogen bonds between uncoordinated phosphonate oxygen atoms, resulting in a one-dimensional supramolecular array along the a axis. The cadmium(II) complex is tetragonal, P4(2)/n (No. 86) with a = 20.8150(9) and c = 18.5846(12) A, V = 8052.0(7) A(3), and Z = 8. Among four cadmium(II) atoms in an asymmetric unit, one is 8-coordinated by four chelating phosphonate groups, the second one is 8-coordinated by 6 coordination atoms from a crown ring and two oxygen atoms from two phosphonate groups, the third Cd(II) atom is octahedrally coordinated by three aqua ligands and three phosphonate oxygen atoms from three phosphonate groups, and the fourth one is 6-coordinated by four aqua ligands and two oxygen atoms from two phosphonate groups in a distorted octahedral geometry. These cadmium atoms are interconnected by bridging phosphonate tetrahedra in such a way as to form large channels along the c direction, in which the lattice water molecules, methanol solvent, and nitrate anions reside. The effect of extent of deprotonation of phosphonic acids on the type of complex formed is also discussed.

Further evidence for the tetraoxoiodate(V) anion,IO(4)(3-): hydrothermal syntheses and structures of Ba[(MoO(2))(6)(IO(4))(2)O(4)] x H(2)O and Ba(3)[(MoO(2))(2)(IO(6))(2)] x 2H(2)O

The hydrothermal reaction of MoO(3) with BaH(3)IO(6) at 180 degrees C for 3 days results in the formation of Ba[(MoO(2))(6)(IO(4))(2)O(4)] x H(2)O (1). Under similar conditions, the reaction of Ba(OH)(2) x 8H(2)O with MoO(3) and Ba(IO(4))(2) x 6H(2)O yields Ba(3)[(MoO(2))(2)(IO(6))(2)] x 2H(2)O (2). The structure of 1, determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, consists of corner- and edge-sharing distorted MoO(6) octahedra that create two-dimensional slabs. Contained within this molybdenum oxide framework are approximately C(2v) tetraoxoiodate(V) anions, IO(4)(3-), that are involved in bonding with five Mo(VI) centers. The two equatorial oxygen atoms of the IO(4)(3-) anion chelate a single Mo(VI) center, whereas the axial atoms are mu(3)-oxo groups and complete the octahedra of four MoO(6) units. The coordination of the tetraoxoiodate(V) anion to these five highly electropositive centers is probably responsible for stabilizing the substantial anionic charge of this anion. The Ba(2+) cations separate the layers from one another and form long ionic contacts with neighboring oxygen atoms and a water molecule. Compound 2 also contains distorted MoO(6) octahedra. However, these solely edge-share with octahedral hexaoxoiodate(VII), IO(6)(5-), anions to form zigzagging one-dimensional, (1)(infinity)[(MoO(2))(IO(6))](3-), chains that are polar. These chains are separated from one another by Ba(2+) cations that are coordinated by additional water molecules. Bond valence sums for the iodine atoms in 1 and 2 are 5.01 and 7.03, respectively. Crystallographic data: 1, monoclinic, space group C2/c, a = 13.584(1) A, b = 7.3977(7) A, c = 20.736(2) A, beta = 108.244(2) degrees, Z = 4; 2, orthorhombic, space group Fdd2, a = 13.356(7) A, b = 45.54(2) A, c = 4.867(3) A, Z = 8.     

Water formation on Pd(111) by reaction of oxygen with atomic and molecular hydrogen

In this work we have studied the steady-state reaction of molecular and atomic hydrogen with oxygen on a Pd(111) surface at a low total pressure (<10(-7) mbar) and at sample temperatures ranging from 100 to 1100 K. Characteristic features of the water formation rate Phi(pH2; pO2; TPd) are presented and discussed, including effects that are due to the use of gas-phase atomic hydrogen for exposure. Optimum impingement ratios (OIR) for hydrogen and oxygen for water formation and their dependence on the sample temperature have been determined. The occurring shift in the OIR could be ascribed to the temperature dependence of the sticking coefficients for hydrogen (SH2) and oxygen (SO2) on Pd(111). Using gas-phase atomic hydrogen for water formation leads to an increase of the OIR, suggesting that hydrogen abstraction via hot-atom reactions competes with H2O formation. The velocity distributions of the desorbing water molecules formed on the Pd(111) surface have been measured by time-of-flight spectroscopy under various conditions, using either gas-phase H atoms or molecular H2 as reactants. In all cases, the desorbing water flux could be represented by a Maxwellian distribution corresponding to the surface temperature, thus giving direct evidence for a Langmuir-Hinshelwood mechanism for water formation on Pd(111).     

Density functional theory study of the oxidation of ammonia on the IrO2(110) surface

In this study, we employed density functional theory (DFT) to investigate the oxidation of ammonia (NH(3)) on the IrO(2)(110) surface. We characterized the possible reaction pathways for the dehydrogenation of NH(x) species (x = 1-3) and for the formation of the oxidation products N(2), N(2)O, NO, NO(2), and H(2)O. The presence of oxygen atoms on coordinatively unsaturated sites (O(cus)) of the oxygen-rich IrO(2)(110) surface promotes the oxidation of NH(3) on the surface. In contrast, NH(3) molecules prefer undergoing desorption over oxidation on the stoichiometric IrO(2)(110) surface. Moreover, the O(cus) atoms are also the major oxidants leading to the formation of oxidation products; none of the oxidations mediated by the bridge oxygen atoms were favorable reactions. The energy barrier for formation of H(2)O as a gaseous oxidation product on the IrO(2)(110) surface is high (from 1.83 to 2.29 eV), potentially leading to the formation of nitrogen-atom-containing products at high temperature. In addition, the selectivity toward the nitrogen-atom-containing products is dominated by the coverage of O(cus) atoms on the surface; for example, a higher coverage of O(cus) atoms results in greater production of nitrogen oxides (NO, NO(2)).     

Chemistry of O‐ and H‐Containing Species on the (001) Surface of Anatase TiO2: A DFT Study

The chemistry of oxygen, hydrogen, water, and other species containing both oxygen and hydrogen atoms on the anatase TiO₂ (001) surface is investigated by DFT. The adsorption energy of atoms and radicals depends appreciably on the position and mode of adsorption, and on the coverage. Molecular hydrogen and oxygen interact weakly with the clean surface. However, H₂O dissociates spontaneously to give two nonidentical hydroxyl groups, and this provides a model for hydroxylation of TiO₂ surfaces by water. The mobility of the hydroxyl groups created by water splitting is initially impeded by a diffusion barrier close to 1 eV. The O₂ adsorption energy increases significantly in the presence of H atoms. Hydroperoxy (OOH) formation is feasible if at least two H atoms are present in the direct vicinity of O₂. In the adsorbed OOH, the O? O bond is considerably lengthened and thus weakened.

Size-selected infrared predissociation spectroscopy of neutral and cationic formamide-water clusters: stepwise growth of hydrated structures and intracluster hydrogen transfer induced by vacuum-ultraviolet photoionization

Vibrational spectroscopy of size-selected formamide-water clusters, FA-(H2O)n , n = 1-4, prepared in a supersonic jet is performed with vacuum-ultraviolet-ionization detected-infrared predissociation spectroscopy (VUV-ID-IRPDS). The cluster structures are determined through comparisons of the observed IR spectra with theoretical calculations at the MP2/6-31++G** level. The FA-(H2O)n , n = 1-3, clusters have ring-type structures, where water molecules act as both single donor and single acceptor in the hydrogen-bond network between the amino and carbonyl groups of FA. For FA-(H2O)4, on the other hand, the absence of the free NH stretching vibration indicates formation of a double ring type structure, where two NH bonds of the amino group and the carbonyl oxygen of FA form hydrogen bonds with water molecules. An infrared spectrum of the formamide-water cluster cation, [FA-H2O](+), is also observed with infrared predissociation spectroscopy of vacuum-ultraviolet-pumped ion (IRPDS-VUV-PI). No band is observed for the free OH stretches of neutral water. This shows [FA-H2O](+) has such a structure that one of the hydrogen atoms of the water moiety is transferred to the carbonyl oxygen of FA(+).     

Tetraaquabis(pyridine)metal(II) saccharinate tetrahydrate, [M(H2O)4(py)2](sac)2·4H2O; M = Co,Ni. Crystal structure determination

The crystal structure determination of the title compounds showed that they are isomorphous, revealing the general formula [M(H₂O)₄(py)₂](sac)₂·4H₂O. Their structures are built up of [M(H₂O)₄(py)₂]²⁺ cations, saccharinato anions and non-coordinated water molecules. The metal atom lies on the inversion center and is octahedrally coordinated by four water oxygens and two pyridine nitrogen atoms. The crystal structure packing is achieved through the hydrogen bonds of O_w⋯O_w, O_w⋯O and O_w⋯N type. Coordinated water molecules are hydrogen bonded to non-coordinated ones at the same time participating in hydrogen bonding with carbonyl oxygen and nitrogen atom from the saccharinato anions. Non-coordinated water molecules participate in hydrogen bonding with the oxygen atoms belonging to the saccharinato CO and SO₂ groups. The hydrogen bond network between the oxygen atoms belonging to the SO₂ group of the saccharinato anions and one of the non-coordinated water molecules (OW3) constructs the centrosymmetric cavity in the structure.
