Synthesis,open-framework structure and thermal behaviour of ammonium tin oxalate,Sn2(NH4)2(C2O4)3·3H2O

A new mixed ammonium tin oxalate trihydrate, Sn₂(NH₄)₂(C₂O₄)₃·3H₂O, has been prepared from evaporation of a solution of tin and ammonium oxalates. Its crystal structure has been solved from single-crystal diffraction data. The symmetry is orthorhombic, space group Pnma (No. 62), cell dimensions a=15.1821(5) Å, b=11.7506(2) Å, c=10.8342(3) Å, and Z=4. The structure consists of macroanionic layers built from [Sn(C₂O₄)₃]^2– groups. The SnO₆ polyhedron can be described as a pseudo pentagonal bipyramid, with the lone pair of electrons presumably occupying one apex. The resulting framework displays holes in which the water molecules and ammonium groups are located. The thermal behaviour of the mixed ammonium tin oxalate has been investigated with temperature-dependent X-ray powder diffraction and conventional thermal analysis. The degradation process has been completely explained, as well as that of oxammite, a phase always obtained in the preparations. The thermal decomposition of oxammite leads to (NH₄)₂C₂O₄ and a new acid salt, NH₄HC₂O₄. The mixed ammonium tin oxalate decomposes successively into the amorphous compounds, Sn₂(NH₄)₂(C₂O₄)₃·H₂O and Sn₂(NH₄)₂(C₂O₄)₃, SnC₂O₄ and, finally, cassiterite SnO₂.     

Thermo-Raman Studies on Dehydration of Na4P2O7⋅10H2O and Phase Transformations of Na4P2O7

In this work, dehydration of sodium diphosphate decahydrate Na₄P₂O₇⋅10H₂O and phase transformations of Na₄P₂O₇ in open air have been studied in detail by thermo-Raman spectroscopy. The spectra were measured continuously in a temperature range from room temperature up to 600°C for the bands of P₂O₇ ^4- and H₂O. The spectral variation showed one step of dehydration and four-phase transformations. The thermo-Raman intensity(TRI) and differential thermo-Raman intensity (DTRI) curves calculated from the characteristic bands of H₂O also showed one step of dehydration with the loss of all hydrated water in the temperature interval from 45 to 69°C. Thermogravimetric measurements supported this result. The thermo-Raman investigation indicated the transformation of Na₄P₂O₇ from low temperature phase to high temperature phase proceed through pre-transitional region from 75 to 410°C before the major orientational disorder at 418°C and minor structural modifications at 511,540 and 560°C. The results from differential scanning calorimetry and differential thermal analysis on Na₄P₂O₇ showed endotherms at 407,517, 523, 548, 557°C and 426, 528, 534, 555, 565°C, respectively.

Chemical Preparation,Thermal Behavior,Kinetic, and IR Studies of MnK4(P3O9)2.2H2O,Crystallographic Data of a New Cyclotriphosphate MnK4(P3O9)2, and Quantum Chemical Calculations for the P3O3− 9 Ion

Abstract

Chemical presparation, thermal behavior, and infrared (IR) studies are discussed for the cyclotriphosphate MnK₄(P₃O₉)₂.2H₂O and its anhydrous form MnK₄(P₃O₉)₂. The total dehydration of MnK₄(P₃O₉)₂.2H₂O, between 200 and 550 °C, leads to its anhydrous form MnK₄(P₃O₉)₂. MnK₄(P₃O₉)₂ is a new cyclotriphosphate crystallizing in the rhombohedral system and is stable until its melting point at 560 °C. The thermal behavior of MnK₄(P₃O₉)₂.2H₂O has been investigated and interpreted by comparison with IR absorption spectrometry and X-ray diffraction experiments. Two different methods, Ozawa and KAS (Kissinger-Akahira-Sunose), were selected in studying the kinetics of thermal behavior of the title compound. Quantum chemical calculations were made for the P₃O ^3? ₉ ion.

GRAPHICAL ABSTRACT     

The Oxalato-Titanium-Containing Tungstophosphate(V) Dimers, [Ti8(C2O4)8P2W18O76(H2O)4]18− and [Ti6(C2O4)4P4W32O124]20−

The oxalato-titanium(IV)-containing, dimeric 18-tungsto-2-phosphate [Ti₈(C₂O₄)₈P₂W₁₈O₇₆(H₂O)₄]^18? (1) and the 32-tungsto-4-phosphate [Ti₆(C₂O₄)₄P₄W₃₂O₁₂₄]^20? (2) are formed upon reaction of the oxalato-titanium complex [TiO(C₂O₄)₂]^2? with the trilacunary Keggin precursor [A-α-PW₉O₃₄]^9? and the hexalacunary Wells–Dawson precursor [H₂P₂W₁₂O₄₈]^12?, respectively. Polyanion 1 consists of two {PW₉} units encapsulating eight titanium centers and connected to each other via two Ti–O–Ti bridges, and crystallizes as a mixed potassium-sodium-lithium salt in the triclinic space group $P{\bar{1}}$ . Polyanion 2 comprises two {P₂W₁₆} units containing each two titanium atoms, and the two half-units are connected via two titanium atoms decorated by two oxalate groups each, and crystallizes as a mixed potassium-lithium salt in the rhombohedral space group $R{\bar{3}}c$ . Polyanions 1 and 2 were characterized in the solid state by single-crystal XRD, FT-IR, and TGA, whereas polyanion 2 was also investigated by ³¹P and ¹⁸³W NMR.     

Synthesis, crystal structure and electrochemical behavior of supramolecular complex [4, 4′-bipyH2][4, 4′-bipyH]2.5(P2Wl8O62)[4, 4′-bipyH1.5] · 2H2O

A Dawson-type supramolecular complex [4, 4′-bipyH₂][4, 4′-bipyH]_2.5 (P₂W_l8O₆₂)[4, 4′-bipyH_{1. 5}] · 2H₂O (1) has been synthesized hydrothermally and determined by means of IR, UV, cyclic voltammetry (CV) and X-ray single-crystal diffraction methods. Single crystal X-ray structural analysis reveals that the compound 1 exhibits 1D chains constructed from polyanions and 4, 4′-bipy molecules connected together by hydrogen bonds and weak contact. The 1D chains are assembled into 2D networks by weak contacts, and the intermolecular interaction of “water chains” is robust enough to really act as a “supramolecular glue” to assemble the 2D networks into 3D arrays. CV study reveals that compound 1 exhibits four chemically reversible processes.

It crystallizes in the triclinic system (space group P-1) with the following unit-cell parameters: a = 9.628(8), b = 12.801(9), c = 19.528(6) Å, α = 78.60(4)°, β = 83.00(5)°, β = 89.98(4)°, Z = 2, and V = 2341(3)Å ³ . The structure has been solved using direct methods and refined by least-squares analysis [R ₁ = 0.043, wR ₂ = 0.108]. The structure can be described as infinite anionic layers with composition of [Li ₂ (P ₆ O ₁₈ )(H ₂ O) ₄ ] ^{4 ?} and parallel to the ac plane. The organic groups are located in the accessible voids. The molecules are stabilized by O─H…O and N─H…O types of intermolecular hydrogen bonds in the unit cell in addition to Van der Waals forces.     

The Synthesis and Characterization of [4-CH3OC6H4CH2NH3]4P2O7·6H2O

Inorganic–organic hybrid compounds exhibit interesting properties in several application areas. In this regard, chemical preparation and characterization by X-ray diffraction, thermal analysis, and IR spectroscopy are given for a new organic cation diphosphate [4-CH₃OC₆H₄CH₂NH₃]₄P₂O₇·6H₂O. This later crystallizes in a C2/c unit cell with a = 38.238(6)Å, b = 6.453(1)Å, c = 16.942(7)Å; β = 97.60(4)°; Z = 4; and V = 4144(2)ų and D_x = 1.377 g·cm^?3. Its crystal structure has been determinated and refined to R = 0.044, using 7978 independent reflections. This atomic arrangement consists of inorganic layers built up from P₂O₇ ^4? anions and water molecules. On these layers, which are parallel to the (b, c) planes, the (4-CH₃OC₆H₄CH₂NH₃)⁺ cations are anchored through multiple hydrogen bonds.     

Gas phase reactions of Cl2O with X−(D2O)n=0–4 (X = O,OD, O2, DO2, and O3)

The reactions of Cl₂O with the cluster ions X⁻(D₂O)_n=0–4 (X = O, OD, O₂, DO₂, and O₃) were studied in a He buffer gas at temperatures within the range 171–298 K and pressures of 0.27–0.51 Torr, using a flow-tube apparatus. All ions were found to react with Cl₂O at rates slower than predicted by the collision rate and the charge center was transferred from X⁻ to Cl⁻ or ClO⁻. The primary product ions Cl⁻(DOCl) and ClO⁻(DOCl) were observed to react further to produce the ions Cl₃O⁻ and Cl₃O₂⁻. The rate constants for the observed reactions are reported and the role that thermodynamics plays in determining possible reaction channels is discussed.     

Synthesis and crystal structure of the hydrated magnesium diphosphate Mg2P2O7·3.5H2O and its high temperature variant Mg2P2O7·H2O

The synthesis and crystal structure of a novel hydrated magnesium diphosphate and its high temperature variant are described. Both structures were solved from powder X-ray diffraction data. The room temperature variant with composition Mg₂P₂O₇·3.5H₂O crystallises in the monoclinic space group P2₁/c (No. 14) with a=10.9317(1), b=8.05578(9), c=9.2774(1) Å, β=90.201(1)°, V=816.99(2) ų and Z=4. The structure consists of sheets stacked along [100] which are linked through MgO₂(H₂O)₄ pillars into a three-dimensional framework with cavities containing water molecules. Within the sheets there are infinite edge-sharing chains of Mg octahedra along [010] which are cross linked by P₂O₇⁴⁻ groups. A high temperature variant exists around 200°C. The crystal structure of this compound with composition Mg₂P₂O₇·H₂O was solved and refined in the monoclinic space group C2/c (No. 15) with a=18.6596(4), b=7.9769(1), c=8.9757(2) Å, β=107.378(1)°, V=1275.01(4) ų, Z=8. The transformation to Mg₂P₂O₇·H₂O involves removal of the water molecules in the cavities and the water molecules of the Mg octahedral pillars in Mg₂P₂O₇·3.5H₂O. The sheets in Mg₂P₂O₇·3.5H₂O however remain unchanged during the transformation as the water molecule coordinating Mg here is retained. These sheets are linked through tetrahedral MgO₄ pillars into a three-dimensional structure containing infinite 10-membered ring channels along [001]. Both compounds have been further characterised by ³¹P MAS NMR spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis and high temperature powder X-ray diffraction.

The reaction of MoO₂(acac)₂ and dibenzylphosphinic acid in ethanol leads to a red distorted cubic tetrameric cluster, Mo₄(??³-O)₄(??²-O₂P(CH₂C₆H₅)₂)₄O₄, and a pink open mixed-valent cluster, Mo₄(??³-O)₂(??²-O₂P(CH₂C₆H₅)₂)₆O₆, when the reduction is carried out at 120 and 75 °C, respectively. ⁹⁵Mo NMR spectroscopy revealed a singlet for Mo₄(??³-O)₄(??²-O₂P(CH₂C₆H₅)₂)₄O₄ (1) at 584.9 ppm (????_1/2 = 4500 Hz) and two resonances for Mo₄(??³-O)₂(??²-O₂P(CH₂C₆H₅)₂)₆O₆ (2) at 238.8 ppm (????_1/2 = 1250 Hz) and 6.4 ppm (????_1/2 = 5999 Hz), which were assigned to the Mo(V) and Mo(VI) sites, respectively. DFT geometries and ⁹⁵Mo DFT-GIAO chemical shifts for Mo₄(??³-O)₄(??²-O₂P(CH₃)₂)₄O₄ (3) and Mo₄(??³-O)₂(??²-O₂P(CH₃)₂)₆O₆ (4) are consistent with X-ray crystallography and ⁹⁵Mo NMR of 1 and 2. The open complex, Mo₄(??³-O)₂(??²-O₂P(CH₂C₆H₅)₂)₆O₆·2(CH₂Cl₂), exhibits a central Mo(V)?CMo(V) single bond at 2.6217(5) Å with each Mo(V) atom bonded to one oxo (trans-disposed) terminal ligand.

Synthesis,Spectroscopic Properties and Crystal Structure of (C4N2H12)2Zr(C2O4)4·H2O

The title compound (C4N2H12)2Zr(C2O4)4·H2O 1 was synthesized by the reaction of ZrOCl2·8H2O, H2C2O4·2H2O and piperazinium in aqueous solution. Single-crystal X-ray analysis has revealed that compound 1 (C16H26N4O17Zr, Mr = 637.63) crystallizes in the monoclinic system, space group P21/c with a = 9.0425(3), b = 13.3844(3), c = 19.1191(5)A, β = 98.365(1)o, V = 2289.34(11) A3, Z = 4, Dc = 1.850 g/cm3, F(000) = 1304, μ = 0.577 mm-1, the final R = 0.0240 and wR = 0.0628 for 4386 observed reflections with I > 2σ(I). X-ray crystal-structure analysis suggests that compound 1 consists of [Zr(C2O4)4]4- anion and two protonated piperazinium cations. The anions are linked through hydrogen bonds of piperazinium. FT-IR and Raman spectra clearly show the existence of oxalate groups in the crystal lattice.     

Co-cation Conduction in Solid Solutions (K1 – xRbx)4P2O7–M2P2O7(M = Ca,Sr, Cd,Ba): Transport Numbers and Partial Ionic Conductivities

Transport numbers for potassium and rubidium cations in solid electrolytes (K_{1 – x} Rb _x )_3.8M_0.1P₂O₇(M = Ca, Cd, Ba) are measured, and the co-cation nature of the electrolytes" conduction is confirmed. The concentration dependences of transport numbers are used to draw a conclusion about the ratio between mobilities of potassium and rubidium cations. The presence of an extremum in the concentration dependence of the activation energy for the rubidium-cation constituent of conduction is confirmed by the NMR method. The obtained results are explained by assuming that the polyalkaline effect is largely due to an ordering of mobile alkali cations.     

New 1D and 2D metal oxygen connectivities in Cu(II) succinato and glutarato coordination polymers: [Cu3(H2O)2(OH)2(C4H4O4)2] · 4H2O, [Cu4(H2O)2(OH)4(C4H4O4)2] · 5H2O and [Cu5(OH)6(C5H6O4)2] · 4H2O

Two Cu(II) hydroxo succinates [Cu₃(H₂O)₂(OH)₂(C₄H₄O₄)₂]?·?4H₂O (1) and [Cu₄(H₂O)₂(OH)₄(C₄H₄O₄)₂]?·?5H₂O (2) and one Cu(II) hydroxo glutarate [Cu₅(OH)₆(C₅H₆O₄)₂]?·?4H₂O (3) have been prepared and structurally characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction methods. They feature 1D and 2D copper oxygen connectivity of elongated {CuO₆} octahedra in “4?+?1?+?1” and “4?+?2” coordination geometries. Within 1, linear trimers of three edge-sharing {CuO₆} octahedra are connected into copper oxygen chains, which are bridged by the anti conformational succinate anions to generate 2D layers with mono terminally coordinating gauche succinate anions on both sides. The layers are assembled into a 3D framework by interlayer hydrogen bonds with lattice H₂O molecules distributed in channels. Different from 1, the principal building units in 2 are linear tetramers of four edge-sharing {CuO₆} octahedra. The tetramers are condensed into copper oxygen chains and the succinate anions interlink them into a 3D framework with triangular channels filled by lattice H₂O molecules. The {CuO₆} octahedra in 3 are edge-shared to form unprecedented 2D inorganic layers with mono terminally coordinating glutarate anions on both sides. Interlayer hydrogen bonding interactions are responsible for supramolecular assembly of the layers into a 3D framework with lattice H₂O molecules in the channels. The inorganic layers in 3 can be described as hexagonal close packing of oxygen atoms with the Cu atoms in the octahedral cavities. The title compounds were further characterized by elemental analyses, IR spectra and thermal analyses.

After a short survey of what is the present state of the cyclophosphates associated with the organic molecule NH₂(CH₂)₄NH₂, we report chemical preparation and crystal structure for a new example of such compounds. [NH₃(CH₂)₄NH₃]₂P₄O₁₂.2H₂O is monoclinic (S.G. : P2₁/n), with Z = 2 and the following unit-cell parameters : a = 7.6728(8) Å, b = 18.962(3) Å, c = 7.9789(9) Å β = 111.751(9)°. Bidimensional layer arrangement of P₄O₁₂ rings connected to the water molecules thanks to weak H-bonds run parallel to the ab plane. The organic groupements located between these inorganic planes perform the three-dimensional cohesion by NH····O hydrogen bonds.     

Thermal Dehydration and Infrared Studies of Mg 2 P 2 O 7 · 6H 2 O Diphosphate

The thermal dehydration of Mg 2 P 2 O 7 ·; 6H 2 O were studied, in the range 25-800°;C, by thermogravimetric analysis (TG-DSC), x-ray diffraction, and infrared spectroscopy. According to the TG-DSC curves, the dehydration of this salt takes place in two stages. The results of thermal analysis, x-ray patterns, and infrared spectra of this compound heated at different temperatures showed that, after dehydration, Mg 2 P 2 O 7 ·; 6H 2 O decomposes into dihydrate Mg 2 P 2 O 7 ·; 2H 2 O diphosphate then to an amorphous Mg 2 P 2 O 7 product which crystallises at 665°;C to give anhydrous diphosphate f Mg 2 P 2 O 7 . The j H enthalpy of the dehydration of Mg 2 P 2 O 7 ·; 6H 2 O and of the formation of f Mg 2 P 2 O 7 have been calculated from thermogravimetric data. The infrared spectroscopic study of Mg 2 P 2 O 7 ·; 6H 2 O and of its heated products, reveals the existence of the characteristic bands of the P 2 O 7 group ( x as POP and x s POP) and showed that the POP angle is bent in these salts. In these compounds, the POP angle values are estimated using the Lazarev's relationship.
