New uranyl complex with imidazolidine-2-one [UO<Subscript>2</Subscript>(Imon)<Subscript>4</Subscript>(H<Subscript>2</Subscript>O)](ClO<Subscript>4</Subscript>)<Subscript>2</Subscript>: Structure and some properties

A complex of uranyl perchlorate with imidazolidine-2-one as the molecular ligand, [UO₂(Imon)₄(H₂O)](ClO₄)₂ (I), was synthesized and structurally characterized by X-ray diffraction analysis. The coordination number of the uranium atom is 7. The nearest environment of the uranyl ion includes four O atoms of the imidazolidine-2-one molecules and one O atom of the water molecule. The perchlorate anions are outer-sphere ligands. The crystals are monoclinic: space group P2₁/c; a = 16.294(3) Å, b = 16.135(3) Å, c = 9.987(2) Å, = 97.69 (3)°, V = 2603.0 (9) ų, (calcd) = 2.117 g/cm³, Z = 4. The IR and luminescence spectra of the complex were recorded.Translated from Koordinatsionnaya Khimiya, Vol. 30, No. 12, 2004, pp. 919–924.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2004 by Andreev, Antipin, Budantseva, Tuchina, Serezhkina, Fedoseev, Yusov.     

An <Emphasis Type="Italic">ab initio </Emphasis> Quantum-Chemical Study of C<Subscript>6</Subscript>H<Subscript>5</Subscript>S(O)CH<Subscript>3</Subscript> and C<Subscript>6</Subscript>H<Subscript>5</Subscript>S(O)CF<Subscript>3</Subscript>

The potential functions of internal rotation around the C -S bond in the C₆H₅S(O)CH₃ and C₆H₅S(O)CF₃ molecules were obtained by ab initio MP2(full)/6-31+G* calculations. The stationary points were identified by solving the vibrational problems. The structures in which the plane of the C -S-C bonds is approximately perpendicular to the benzene ring plane correspond to the energy minimum. The barriers to rotation around the C -S bond, corrected for the zero-point vibration energy, are 21.29 [C₆H₅S(O)CH₃] and 28.98 [C₆H₅S(O)CF₃] kJ mol⁻¹. The bond angles (deg) are as follows: 95.7 (CSC), 107.1 (C SO), 106.3 (C SO) in C₆H₅S(O)CH₃; 93.5 (CSC), 108.2 (C SO), 105.2 (C SO) in C₆H₅S(O)CF₃. The bond lengths are as follows (Å): 1.520 (S=O), 1.804 (C -S), 1.810 (C -S) in C₆H₅S(O)CH₃; 1.507 (S=O), 1.799 (C -S), 1.870 (C -S) in C₆H₅S(O)CF₃. According to the results of NBO calculations, the formally double S=O bond consists of a strongly polarized covalent σ bond (S→O) and an almost ionic bond. An increase in the S=O bond multiplicity relative to a single bond is mainly due to hyperconjugation by the mechanism n(O)→σ*(C -S) and n(O)→σ*(C -S) and, to a lesser extent, by interaction of the oxygen lone electron pairs with the Rydberg orbitals of the S atoms, characterized by a large contribution of the d component.__________Translated from Zhurnal Obshchei Khimii, Vol. 75, No. 1, 2005, pp. 96–104.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2005 by Bzhezovskii, Il’chenko, Chura, Gorb, Yagupol’skii.     

Synthesis of hydroxyapatite by hydrolysis of α-Ca<Subscript>3</Subscript>(PO<Subscript>4</Subscript>)<Subscript>2</Subscript>

Conditions for hydroxyapatite (HAP) synthesis in aqueous solutions by hydrolysis of α-Ca₃(PO₄)₂ were studied. Temperature exerts a substantial effect on the rate of α-Ca₃(PO₄)₂ hydrolysis and also changes the morphology of the reaction products. At 40 °C, the plate-like intersecting (perpendicular to the surface of the initial particles) crystals of HAP grow. Their maximum size after the 24-h hydrolysis is 1–2 µm. Needle like HAP crystals are formed upon boiling of the suspension. The morphology observed for the HAP particles agrees well with the conclusions obtained by analysis of the kinetics of tricalcium phosphate hydrolysis.__________Published in Russian in Izvestiya Akademii Nauk.

The new complexes [(η³-Me₂CCMeCH₂)Pd{η²-Ph₂P(S)CHP(S)Ph₂] (1), [(η³-Me₂CCMeCH₂)Pd{η²-OC(CF₃) CHCO(C₄H₃S)}] (2) and [(η³-CH₂CMeCH₂)Pd{η²-OC(CF₃)CHCO(C₄H₃S)}] (3) have been synthesized by reacting [(η³-allyl)Pd(μ-Cl)]₂ with Ph₂P(S)CH₂P(S)Ph₂ and OC(CF₃)CH₂CO(C₄H₃S) in the presence of base. All have been characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR, ¹H-n.m.r and FAB-mass spectroscopy.

The A1, O, AlO, A1₂O, Al₂O₂, WO₂, and WO₃, partial pressures in the vapor over Al₂O₃ in a tungsten Knudsen effusion cell between 2300 and 2600 K were derived from A1⁺, O⁺, AlO⁺, A1₂O⁺, Al₂O₂⁺, WO₂⁺, and WO₃⁺, ion intensities. The mass spectrometer was calibrated against the equilibrium constant of the WO₃(g) = WO₂(g) + O(g) reaction. Refined values of the ionization cross sections of AlO and A1₂O₂ were used in the partial pressure calculations. The enthalpies of atomization of aluminum suboxides were determined to be Δ_at H ^o(AlO, g, 0) = 510.7 ± 3.3 kJ mol⁻¹, Δ_at H ^o(Al₂O, g, 0) = 1067.2 ± 6.9 kJ mol⁻¹, and Δ_at H ^o(Al₂O₂, g, 0) = 1556.7 ± 9.9 kJ mol⁻¹.     

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of the Heterovalent Copper(I,II) π-Complex Cu7Br6.48Cl1.52 ? 2C3N3(OC3H5)3

Single crystals of the heterovalent Cu^I,Cu^II π,σ-complex Cu₇Br_6.48Cl_1.52 ⋅ 2C₃N₃(OC₃H₅)₃ are synthesized by the ac electrochemical method from an ethanol solution containing 2,4,6-triallyloxy-1,3,5-triazine, CuCl₂ ⋅ 2H₂O, and CuBr₂. The unit cell parameters of the crystals are: space group , a = 8.271(3) Å, b = 11.391(3) Å, c = 11.821(3) Å, α = 67.43(1)°, β = 84.41(2)°, γ = 85.14(2)°, V = 1022(1) ų, and R(F) = 0.0714. The copper and halogen atoms form unique moieties Cu₆X₆ linked by bridging fragments [Cu²⁺ (C₃N₃(OC₃H₅)₃)₂]X₂ into infinite chains. Each inorganic moiety Cu₆X₆ is linked with four 2,4,6-triallyl- oxy-1,3,5-triazine molecules. The ligand molecule is coordinated to one Cu^II atom through the nitrogen atom of the triazine cycle and to two Cu^I atoms through the C=C bonds of two allyl groups. The Br content equal to 0.57 in the X(4) position linking the Cu^I and Cu^II atoms differs markedly from a value of 0.85–0.91 for the X(1), X(2), and X(3) positions linked only with the Cu(I) atoms.__________Translated from Koordinatsionnaya Khimiya, Vol. 31, No. 6, 2005, pp. 455–461.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2005 by Goreshnik, Schollmeyer, Mys’kiv.

Solid Electrolytes Based on KAlO<Subscript>2</Subscript>-TiO<Subscript>2</Subscript>: The Crystalline Structure and Conduction

The structure of solid high-conductance potassium electrolytes K_{1 − x} Al_{1 − x} Ti_xO₂ (x = 0.1; 0.2) at 25 and 575°C is studied by a powder neutron diffraction analysis with the application of full-profile Rietveld analysis. Inserting titanium ions removes in potassium aluminate the phase transition at 540°C and the conductance anisotropy typical for its low-temperature form. Both structures are identical (fcc lattice, space group Fd3m). Experiment and calculation coincide best under the assumption that the potassium sublattice is disordered. The conductance increase upon inserting ions Ti⁴⁺ is due, apart from stabilization of the fcc structure, to formation of additional potassium vacancies and larger channels for the migration of potassium cations (ions Ti⁴⁺ are larger than ions Al³⁺).__________Translated from Elektrokhimiya, Vol. 41, No. 7, 2005, pp. 878–883.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2005 by Burmakin, Voronin, Akhtyamova, Berger, Shekhtman.

An extended hydrogen-bonded two-dimensional fumarato-bridged complex [Co(μ-fumarato)(γ-methylpyridine)₂(H₂O)₂]_∞ has been synthesized and its crystal structure determined by single crystal X-ray analysis. The X-ray analysis reveals that the cobalt atom is positioned in distorted octahedral surroundings. An extended twodimensional structure was formed through interchain hydrogen bonding. Magnetic measurements showed the presence of weak antiferromagnetic exchange interactions between the cobalt(II) ions within the chain, based on the spin Hamilitonian H = −2J ∑ S_i S_{i+ 1} (J = − 0.22 cm⁻¹).     

A Chiral Coordination Polymer of Silver(I) with Saccharinate and Pyridine: Synthesis,Spectral, Thermal,and Structural Characterization of [Ag(sac)(py)]<Subscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis></Subscript>

The first silver(I) complex of saccharinate (sac) with pyridine (py), [Ag(sac)(py)]_n has been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy and single crystal X-ray diffractometry. The complex crystallizes in chiral, trigonal space group P3₁21 (No. 152) with unit cell parameters of a = 11.2605(2) Å, c = 17.3300(4) Å, V = 1903.02(6) ų and Z = 6. [Ag(sac)(py)]_n contains monomeric [Ag(sac)(py)] units linked into infinite helices by way of Ag⋅sAg interactions [d(Ag⋅sAg) = 2.909(2) and 2.985(1) Å]. The distorted square-planar environment of Ag is completed by an N-bonded sac [Ag—N = 2.084(2) Å] and a py molecule [Ag—N = 2.116(2) Å]. The N_sac—Ag—N_py angle is 173.85(10)^∘. The one-dimensional chains are crosslinked by C—H⋅sO interactions involving the carbonyl and sulfonyl O atoms of sac and aromatic-ring hydrogen atoms of both sac and py. The thermal stability of the title complex was investigated using thermogravimetry and differential thermal analysis in a static atmosphere of air. The first decomposition stage between 90 and 160^∘C corresponds to removal of the py molecule in a single stage, while the degradation of the sac moiety occurs at two stages in the temperature range 370–515^∘C, giving an end product of metallic Ag.

Microstructure and conduction of ceramic composites Bi₂CuO₄ + xBi₂O₃ (x = 5, 10, 15, 20 wt %) near the eutectic melting point (770°C) are studied. Bismuth oxide, initially randomly distributed over the ceramics bulk, after quenching from temperatures exceeding the eutectic melting point, becomes localized at triple junctions and grain boundaries in Bi₂CuO₄, which is caused by wetting grain boundaries and forming a liquid-channel structure. The jumpwise change in the composites’ conductivity near 730 and 770°C caused by polymorphic transformation of Bi₂O₃ and the eutectic melting with simultaneous formation of a liquid-channel structure. Transport numbers of the oxygen ion are measured at 770°C by coulomb-volumetric method. The conduction by oxygen ions increases in the composites with decreasing average size of Bi₂CuO₄ crystallites.__________Translated from Elektrokhimiya, Vol. 41, No. 5, 2005, pp. 596–601.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2005 by Lyskov, Metlin, Belousov, Tret’yakov.

In KCu₄(AsO₄)₃ haben das Cu(1)^[4]O₄-Quadrat und das As(1)O₄-Tetraeder eine gemeinsame O—O-Kante von 2.428(5) Å, was eine Verzerrung der beiden Koordinationsfiguren CuO₄-Quadrat und AsO₄-Tetraeder bedingt. Die zwei Na-Atome in Na₄Cu(AsO₄)₃ sind durch O-Atome [6]-koordiniert, das K-Atom in KCu₄(AsO₄)₃ ist [8]-koordiniert.
