Reactions of CO2 with H, H2 and deuterated analogues

Combining a temperature variable 22-pole ion trap with a cold effusive beam of neutrals, rate coefficients k(T) have been measured for reactions of CO₂⁺ ions with H, H₂ and deuterated analogues. The neutral beam which is cooled in an accommodator to T_ACC, penetrates the trapped ion cloud with a well-characterized velocity distribution. The temperature of the ions, T_22PT, has been set to values between 15 and 300 K. Thermalization is accelerated by using helium buffer gas. For reference, some experiments have been performed with thermal target gas. For this purpose hydrogen is leaked directly into the box surrounding the trap. While collisions of CO₂⁺ with H₂ lead exclusively to the protonated product HCO₂⁺, collisions with H atoms form mainly HCO⁺. The electron transfer channel H⁺ + CO₂ could not be detected (<20%). Equivalent studies have been performed for deuterium. The rate coefficients for reactions with atoms are rather small. Within our relative errors of less than 15%, they do not depend on the temperature of the CO₂⁺ ions nor on the velocity of the atoms (k(T) lays between 4.5 and 4.7 × 10⁻¹⁰ cm³ s⁻¹ with H as target, and 2.2 × 10⁻¹⁰ cm³ s⁻¹ with D). For collisions with molecules, the reactivity increases significantly with falling temperature, reaching the Langevin values at 15 K. These results are reported as k = α (T/300 K)^β with α = 9.5 × 10⁻¹⁰ cm³ s⁻¹ and β = −0.15 for H₂ and α = 4.9 × 10⁻¹⁰ cm³ s⁻¹ and β = −0.30 for D₂.     

Structure of Ba Na Ethylenediaminetetraacetatocobaltate(III) Perchlorate, Na[Ba6(H2O)25][Co(Edta)]4(ClO4)9 · 5H2O

Crystals with uncommon composition NaBa₆[Co(Edta)]₄(ClO₄)₉ · 30H₂O (Edta⁴⁻ is ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid anion) were obtained with the following unit cell parameters: a = 14.8513(9) Å, b = 26.2361(15) Å, c = 15.1789(9) Å, α = 91.661(7)°, β = 113.035(7)°, γ = 89.897(7)°, space group P1¯. Each complex anion [Co(Edta)]⁻ is bonded through the carboxyl O atoms to five Ba atoms to give three-dimensional framework in a crystal. One perchlorate ion forms Ba-O-Cl-O-Ba bridge between the Ba atoms; four ClO ₄ ⁻ ions are isolated, while the remaining four ions act as monodentate ligands at the Ba atoms. The water molecules (25 in sum) complete the coordination sphere of the Ba atoms to eight-, nine-, or ten-vertex polyhedron. Four water molecules are in the closest surrounding of the Na atom, one H₂O molecule is isolated.__________Translated from Koordinatsionnaya Khimiya, Vol. 31, No. 8, 2005, pp. 590–595.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2005 by Zabel, Poznyak, Pawlowski.

Slow crystallization of an HCl solution containing cucurbituril (C₃₆H₃₆N₂₄O₁₂) and a triangular molybdenum cluster aqua complex [Mo₃S₄(aq)]⁴⁺ yielded a supramolecular adduct of { [Mo₃S₄(H₂O)₇Cl₂]×(C₃₆H₃₆N₂₄O₁₂₎Cl₂·10H₂O composition.

Influence of Pd precursors on the catalytic performance of Pd–H4SiW12O40/SiO2 in the direct oxidation of ethylene to acetic acid

The effects of palladium precursors (PdCl₂, (NH₄)₂PdCl₄, Pd(NH₃)₂Cl₂, Pd(NO₃)₂ and Pd(CH₃COO)₂) on the catalytic properties in the selective oxidation of ethylene to acetic acid have been investigated for 1.0 wt% Pd–30 wt% H₄SiW₁₂O₄₀/SiO₂. The structures of the catalysts were characterized using X-ray diffraction, N₂ adsorption, H₂-pulse chemical adsorption, infrared spectrometry of the adsorbed pyridine, H₂ temperature-programmed reduction and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The present study demonstrates that the different palladium precursors can lead to the significant changes in the dispersion of palladium. It is found that Pd dispersion decreases as follows: PdCl₂ > (NH₄)₂PdCl₄ > Pd(NO₃)₂ > Pd(NH₃)₂Cl₂ > Pd(C₂H₃O₂)₂, which is nearly identical to the catalytic activity. This indicates that the dispersion of palladium plays an important role in the catalytic activity. Furthermore, density of Lewis (L) and Brönsted (B) acid sites are also strongly dependent on the palladium precursors. It is also demonstrated that an effective catalyst should possess a well combination of Brönsted acid sites with dispersion of palladium.     

Facile hydrosilylation of norbornadiene by silanes R3SiH and R2SiH2 with molybdenum catalysts

Photochemically activated [Mo(CO)₆] and [Mo(CO)₄(η⁴-nbd)] have been demonstrated to be very effective catalysts for hydrosilylation of norbornadiene (nbd) by tertiary (Et₃SiH, Cl₃SiH) and secondary (Et₂SiH₂ and Ph₂SiH₂) silanes to give 5-silyl-2-norbornene, which under the same reaction conditions transform in ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) to unsaturated polymers and to a double hydrosilylation product, 2,6-bis(silyl)norbornane. The yield of a particular reaction depends very strongly on the kind of silane involved. The reaction products were identified by means of chromatography (GC–MS) and ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectroscopy. In photochemical reaction of [Mo(CO)₄(η⁴-nbd)] and Ph₂SiH₂ in cyclohexane-d₁₂, η²-coordination of the SiH bond to the molybdenum atom is supported by ¹H NMR spectroscopy due to the detection of two equal-intensity doublets with ²J_HH = 5.4 Hz at δ 6.12 and −5.86 ppm.     

Super-Molecular Interaction between Cl and H2O within the Restricted Space of Layered Double Hydroxides

A periodical interaction model of LDHs-Cl-yH₂O has been proposed. The geometry optimization and energy of the layered double hydroxides (LDHs) were calculated using CASTEP/LDA method at the CA-PZ level. The distribution of H₂O in the interlayer and the super-molecular interaction between host layer and guest anion have been investigated by analyzing the geometric parameters, charge population, energy, and density of state (DOS). The results showed that there was a strong super-molecular interaction between the host layer and the guest anion Cl⁻. In the system of LDHs-Cl-yH₂O, the interlayer distance increased gradually then tended to invariableness. And in the process of hydration of LDHs-Cl, hydrogen bonding was superior to electrostatic interaction, and layer-water type hydrogen bonding was a little stronger than anion-water type hydrogen bonding between H₂O and the rest of the structure. When y was 1 or 2, Cl⁻ and the plane of water were parallel to the layer; while y was 3 or 4, distribution of Cl⁻ and water was random. Moreover, the LDHs-Cl-yH₂O would change from ionic crystal to molecular crystal with the increase of number of water molecule. The hydration of LDHs-Cl would achieve a definite saturation state.

A NEW PEAK (T_4) IN THE ~(13)C-NMR SPECTRUM OF POLYBUTADIENE

A new peak at 39.0 ppm in the ~(13)C-NMR spectrum of polybutadiene (PBD) was discovered. This peak is assigned to the fourth peak (T_4) of trans-1,4-sequence marked with an asterisk as shown in Fig. 3 in the text.The occurrence of T_4 carbon nuclei is strongly affected by their neighboring 1,2-units. So long as both contents of trans-1,4- and 1,2-units attain their proper amounts the peak (T_4) with appear in the ~(13)C-NMR spectrum of PBD.     

Transition metal chemistry of phosphorus based ligands. Ruthenium(II) chemistry of bis(phosphino)amines, X2PN(R)PX2 (R=H or Ph, X=Ph; R=Ph, X2=O2C6H4)

Reactions of CpRuCl(PPh₃)₂ with bis(phosphino)amines, X₂PN(R)PX₂ (1 R=H, X=Ph; 2 R=X=Ph; 3 R=Ph, X₂=O₂C₆H₄) give neutral or cationic mononuclear complexes depending on the reaction conditions. Reaction of 1 with CpRuCl(PPh₃)₂ gives one neutral complex, [CpRu(Cl)(η²-Ph₂PN(H)PPh₂)] (4) and two cationic complexes, [CpRu(η²-Ph₂PN(H)PPh₂)(η¹-Ph₂PN(H)PPh₂)]Cl (5) and [CpRu(PPh₃)(η²-Ph₂PN(H)PPh₂)]Cl (6), whereas the reaction of 2 with CpRuCl(PPh₃)₂ leads only to the isolation of cationic complex, [CpRu(PPh₃)(η²-Ph₂PN(Ph)PPh₂)]Cl (7). The catechol derivative 3, in a similar reaction, affords an interesting mononuclear complex [CpRu(PPh₃){η¹-(C₆H₄O₂)PN(Ph)P(O₂H₄C₆)}₂]Cl (8) containing two monodentate bis(phosphino)amine ligands. The structural elucidation of the complexes was carried out by elemental analyses, IR and NMR spectroscopic data.     

Pillaring of Layered Perovskites, K1−xLaxCa2−xNb3O10, with Nanosized Fe2O3 Particles

Nanosized Fe₂O₃ clusters are pillared in the interlayer spaces of layered perovskites, H_1−xLa_xCa_2−xNb₃O₁₀ (0≤x≤0.75) by a guest-exchange reaction using the trinuclear acetato-hydroxo iron cation, [Fe₃(OCOCH₃)₇ OH·2H₂O]⁺. The interlayer spaces of niobate layers are pre-expanded with n-butylammonium cations (n-C₄H₉NH⁺₃), which are subsequently replaced by bulky iron pillaring species to form Fe(III) complex intercalated layer niobates. Upon heating at 380°C, the interlayered acetato-hydroxo iron complexes are converted into Fe₂O₃ nanoclusters with a thickness of ca. 3.5 Å irrespective of the interlayer charge density (x). The band-gap energy of the Fe₂O₃ pillars (E_g2.25 eV) is slightly larger than that of bulk Fe₂O₃ (E_g2.20 eV) but is smaller than that expected for such a small-sized semiconductor, which can be assigned to the pancake-shaped Fe₂O₃ pillars of 3.5 Å in height with comparatively large lateral dimension. X-ray absorption spectroscopic measurements at the Fe K-edge are carried out in order to obtain structural information on the Fe₂O₃ pillars stabilized between the niobate layers. XANES analysis reveals that the interlayer FeO₆ octahedra have coordination environments similar to that of bulk α-Fe₂O₃, but noncentrosymmetric distortion of interlayered FeO₆ is enhanced due to the asymmetric electric potential exerted by the negatively charged niobate layers. Scanning electron microscopic observation and nitrogen adsorption–desorption isotherm measurement suggest that the pillared derivatives are nanoporous materials with the highest BET specific surface area of ca. 116 m²/g.     

Reactions of the cycloheptatrienyl complexes [MX(CO)2(η-C7H7)] (M=Mo, X=Br; M=W, X=I) with CNBu: X-ray crystal structure of [WI(CO)2(CNBu)2(η-C7H7)]

Reaction of [MX(CO)₂(η⁷-C₇H₇)] (M=Mo, X=Br; M=W, X=I) with two equivalents of CNBu^t in toluene affords the trihapto-bonded cycloheptatrienyl complexes [MX(CO)₂(CNBu^t)₂(η³-C₇H₇)] (1, M=Mo, X=Br; 2, M=W, X=I). The X-ray crystal structure of 2 reveals a pseudo-octahedral molecular geometry with an asymmetric ligand arrangement at tungsten in which one CNBu^t is located trans to the η³-C₇H₇ ring. Treatment of 2 with tetracyanoethene results in 1,4-cycloaddition at the η³-C₇H₇ ring to give [WI(CO)₂(CNBu^t)₂{η³-C₉H₇(CN)₄}], 3. The principal reaction type of the molybdenum complex 1 is loss of carbonyl and bromide ligands to afford substituted products [MoBr(CNBu^t)₂(η⁷-C₇H₇)] 4 or [Mo(CO)(CNBu^t)₂(η⁷-C₇H₇)]Br. Reaction of [MoBr(CO)₂(η⁷-C₇H₇)] with one equivalent of CNBu^t in toluene at 60°C affords [MoBr(CO)(CNBu^t)(η⁷-C₇H₇)], 5, which is a precursor to [Mo(CO)(CNBu^t)(NCMe)(η⁷-C₇H₇)][BF₄], 6, by reaction with Ag[BF₄] in acetonitrile. In contrast with the parent dicarbonyl systems [MoX(CO)₂(η⁷-C₇H₇)], complexes of the Mo(CO)(CNBu^t)(η⁷-C₇H₇) auxiliary, 5 and 6, do not afford observable η³-C₇H₇ products by ligand addition at the molybdenum centre.     

Macroscopic and spectroscopic characterization of selenate, selenite, and chromate adsorption at the solid–water interface of γ-Al2O3

The interaction of selenate, selenite, and chromate with the hydrated surface of γ-Al₂O₃ was studied using a combination of macroscopic pH edge data, electrophoretic mobility measurements, and X-ray absorption spectroscopic analyses. The pH edge data show generally increased oxyanion adsorption with decreasing pH, and indicate ionic strength-(in)dependent adsorption of chromate and selenate across the pH range 4–9, and ionic strength-(in)dependent adsorption of selenite in this pH range. The adsorption of chromate peaks at pH 5.0, whereas for selenate and selenite no pH adsorption maxima are observed. Electrophoretic mobility measurements show that all three oxyanions decrease the zeta potential of γ-Al₂O₃ upon adsorption; however, only selenite decreased the pH_PZC of the γ-Al₂O₃ sorbent. EXAFS data indicate that selenite ions are coordinated in a bridging bidentate fashion to surface AlO₆ octahedra, whereas no second-neighbor Al scattering was observed for adsorbed selenate ions. Combined, the results presented here show that pH is a major factor in determining the extent of adsorption of selenate, selenite, and chromate on hydrated γ-Al₂O₃. The results point to substantial differences between these anions as to the mode of adsorption at the hydrated γ-Al₂O₃ surface, with selenate adsorbing as nonprotonated outer-sphere complexes, chromate forming a mixture of monoprotonated and nonprotonated outer-sphere adsorption complexes, and selenite coordinating as inner-sphere surface complexes in bridging configuration.     

A convenient route to carbon-substituted derivatives of nido-5,6-C2B8H12

An alternative route to the parent nido-5,6-C₂B₈H₁₂ dicarbaborane is reported together with a convenient synthesis of its carbon-substituted derivatives. The method is based on reactions between 4-(Me₂S)-arachno-B₉H₁₃ and alkynes R¹R²C₂ (where R¹R²=H,H; Me, Me; Ph,H, and Ph,Ph) in toluene at reflux. The characteristic reaction mode is a dicarbon insertion into the 9-vertex arachno cluster to produce a series of the 5,6-R¹R²-nido-5,6-C₂B₈H₁₀ species combined with concomitant elimination of one {BH} vertex. The products were characterised by high-field ¹H and ¹¹B NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry associated with [¹¹B–¹¹B]-COSY and ¹H{¹¹B(selective)} measurements that permitted complete assignments of all resonances to individual cluster {BH} units.     

Evidence of the decomposition of pyridine molecules on coldly deposited sers active copper films

The reactivity against pyridine of coldly deposited copper films has been thoroughly studied in dependence of film annealing temperature (T_AN). The decomposition of pyridine evidenced through H₂ desorption, dramatically decreases as T_AN increases. Our results are discussed in relation to the irreversible loss of SERS signals during the high-temperature annealing of copper films covered with pyridine.

Reactions between [Ru(thf)(PPh₃)₂(η-C₅H₅)]⁺ and lithium acetylides have given further examples of substituted ethynylruthenium complexes that are useful precursors of allenylidene and cumulenylidene derivatives. From Li₂C₄, mono- and bi-nuclear ruthenium complexes were obtained: single-crystal X-ray studies have characterised two rotamers of {Ru(PPh₃)₂(η-C₅H₅)}₂(μ-C₄), which differ in the relative cis and trans orientations of the RuL_n groups. Protonation of Ru(CCCCH)(PPh₃)₂(η-C₅H₅) afforded the butatrienylidene cation [Ru(C=C=C=CH₂)(PPh₃)₂(η-C₅H₅)]⁺, which reacted readily with atmospheric moisture to give the acetylethynyl complex Ru{CCC(O)Me}(PPh₃)₂(η-C₅H₅), also fully characterised by an X-ray structural study.     

Di- and tetranulcear Ru complexes of phenylene-1,4-diaminotetra(phosphonite), p-C6H4[N{P(OC6H4OMe-o)2}2]2 and their catalytic investigation towards transfer hydrogenation reactions

The stoichiometric reaction of phenylene-1,4-diaminotetra(phosphonite), p-C₆H₄[N{P(OC₆H₄OMe-o)₂}₂]₂ (P₂NФNP₂) (1) with [RuCl₂(p-cymene)]₂ in acetonitrile produces cis,cis-[{RuCl₂(CH₃CN)₂}₂(P₂NФNP₂)] (2), whereas the similar reaction of 1 with [RuCl₂(p-cymene)]₂ in THF medium affords a tri-chloro-bridged tetrametallic complex, [{(η⁶-p-cymene)Ru₂(μ₂-Cl)₃Cl}₂(P₂NФNP₂)] (3) irrespective of the stoichiometry and reaction conditions. The formation and structure of complexes 2 and 3 are assigned through various spectroscopic and micro analysis data. The molecular structure of 2 is confirmed by single crystal X-ray diffraction study. The catalytic activities of complexes 2 and 3 have been investigated in transfer hydrogenation reactions.

[7,7-(PMe₂Ph)₂-9-(η⁶-^isoPrC₆H₄Me)-7,9-PtRuB₉H₁₁] has a formal closo Wadian cluster-electron count, but a nido geometry, whereas [1-(η⁶-^isoPrC₆H₄Me)-4,4-(PMe₂Ph)₂-1-4-RuPtB₉H₉], which does have a closo geometry, has a formal sub-closo cluster electron count; both compounds are formed in the reaction between [6-(η⁶-^isoPrC₆H₄Me)-nido-6 RuB₉H₁₃], KH and [PtCl₂(PMe₂Ph)₂].     

Synthesis and Structural Investigation of a Series of Noncentrosymmetric Cyclohexaphosphates: M(C6H5NH3)4P6O18?8H2O (M: Cd, Cu, Co)

Three new noncentrosymmetric cyclohexaphosphates with the general formula M(C₆H₅NH₃)₄ P₆O₁₈⋅8H₂O (M: Cd, Cu, Co) are synthesized. They crystallize in the monoclinic system, space group P2₁, Z = 2 and are isostructural. We have determined their structure from the Cd salt. This Cd salt exhibits the following unit-cell parameters: a = 9.852(1), b = 24.784(4), c = 9.2078(8) Å, β = 107.92(9)^∘, V = 2139.2(9) ų. The structure has been solved using direct method and refined to a reliability R factor of 0.042. The structure can be described as infinite anionic layers with composition of [Cd(P₆O₁₈)(H₂O)₈]⁴⁻ and parallel to the (1 0 1) plane. The charge compensation and the three-dimensional cohesion are performed by the protonated amine located between these inorganic layers.     

Thermodynamic Quantities and Defect Structure of La0.6Sr0.4Co1−yFeyO3−δ(y=0–0.6) from High-Temperature Coulometric Titration Experiments

The partial energies and entropies of O₂in perovskite-type oxides La_0.6Sr_0.4Co_1−yFe_yO_3−δ(y=0, 0.1, 0.25, 0.4, 0.6) were determined as a function of nonstoichiometryδby coulometric titration of oxygen in the temperature range 650–950°C. An absolute reference value ofδwas obtained by thermogravimetry in air. The nonstoichiometry at a given oxygen pressure and temperature decreases with iron contenty. At low nonstoichiometries the oxygen chemical potential decreases withδ. The observed behavior can be interpreted by assuming random distribution of oxygen vacancies, an electronic structure with both localized donor states on Fe, and a partially filled itinerant electron band, of which the density of states at the Fermi level scales with the Co content. The energy of the Fe states is close to the energy at the Fermi level in the conduction band. The observed trends of the thermodynamic quantities can be interpreted in terms of the itinerant electron model only when the iron content is small. At high values ofδthe chemical potential of O₂becomes constant, indicating partial decomposition of the perovskite phase. The maximum value ofδat which the compositions are single-phase increases with temperature.     

H2分子在LaFeO3表面吸附的第一性原理研究

基于密度泛函理论的第一性原理方法,通过计算表面能确定LaFeO₃(010)表面为最稳定的吸附表面,研究了H₂分子在LaFeO₃(010)表面的吸附性质。LaFeO₃(010)表面存在LaO和FeO₂两种终止表面,但吸附主要发生在FeO₂终止表面,由于LaFeO₃(010)表面弛豫的影响,使得凹凸不平的表面层增加了表面原子与H原子的接触面积,表面晶胞的纵向体积增加约2.5%,有利于H原子向晶体内扩散。研究发现,H₂分子在LaFeO₃(010)表面主要存在3种化学吸附方式:第一种吸附发生在O-O桥位,2个H原子分别吸附在2个O原子上,形成2个-OH基,这是最佳吸附位置,此时H原子与表面O原子的作用主要是H1s与O2p轨道杂化作用的结果,H-O之间为典型的共价键。H₂分子的解离能垒为1.542 eV,说明表面需要一定的热条件,H₂分子才会发生解离吸附;第二种吸附发生在Fe-O桥位,1个H原子吸附在O原子上形成1个-OH基,另一个H原子吸附在Fe原子上形成金属键;第三种吸附发生在O顶位,2个H原子吸附在同一个O原子上,形成H₂O分子,此时H₂O分子与表面形成物理吸附,H₂O分子逃离表面后容易形成氧空位。此外,H₂分子在LaFeO₃(010)表面还可以发生物理吸附。
