209Bi NQR in Mixed Oxides 2Bi2O3· B2O3, 3Bi2O3· 5B2O3, and Bi2O3· 3B2O3

It was earlier found from nuclear quadrupole resonance (NQR) measurements and computer modeling that -Bi₂O₃, Bi₃O₄Br and mixed oxides Bi₂O₃· 2Al₂O₃, Bi₂O₃· 2Ga₂O₃, Bi₂O₃· 3GeO₂, and 2Bi₂O₃· 3GeO₂exhibit local ordered magnetic fields from 30 to 200 G. It thus follows that these compounds are not diamagnets in a conventional sence of the word. With the aim of revealing previously unknown magnetic properties in bismuth(III) oxide-based Main Group element compounds, the mixed bismuth–boron oxides 2Bi₂O₃· B₂O₃, 3Bi₂O₃· 5B₂O₃, and Bi₂O₃· 3B₂O₃were prepared and studied using ²⁰⁹Bi NQR. The quadrupole interactions of the ²⁰⁹Bi nuclei and their electronic environment were studied, the crystallochemical features of the compounds were discussed, and the conformity of the ²⁰⁹Bi results to the X-ray structure data was verified. The preliminary tests in the field of a permanent magnet showed that the resonance intensities increase in external magnetic fields, indicating that a magnetism of unknown nature develops in the titled compounds. It was found reasonable to continue studies of the magnetic properties of these compounds using single-crystal ²⁰⁹Bi NQR in external magnetic fields.     

Geometric shielding corrections for calculation of electron scattering by CO2, C2H2, CHCl3, CH2Cl2, CH3Cl,CHF3, CH2F2 and CH3F at 30–5000 eV

Taking into account the changes of the geometric shielding effect in a molecule as the incident electron energy varies, an empirical fraction, which depends on the energy of the incident electrons, the target's molecular dimension and the atomic and electronic numbers in the molecule, is presented. Using this empirical fraction, a new formulation of the additivity rule is proposed. Using the new additivity rule, the total cross sections of electron scattering by CO₂, C₂H₂, CHCl₃, CH₂Cl₂, CH₃Cl, CHF₃, CH₂F₂ and CH₃F are calculated at the Hartree–Fork level at 30–5000 eV. The quantitative total cross sections are compared with those obtained by experiments and other theories, and good agreement is obtained over a wide energy range, especially above 100 eV.

Polyanionic Frameworks in the Lithium Phosphidogermanates Li2GeP2 and LiGe3P3 – Synthesis,Structure, and Lithium Ion Mobility

Recently fast lithium ion conductors were discovered in compounds containing tetrahedral SiP₄^8– and GeP₄^8– units. In the context of material development for all solid state batteries the ternary Li/Ge/P phase system has been further investigated and two new lithium phosphidogermanates were discovered on the lithium poor side of the ternary composition diagram. Li₂GeP₂ crystallizes in space group I4₁/acd with unit cell parameters of a = 12.3069(1) Å and c = 19.0306(4) Å, consists of a framework of Ge₄P₁₀ supratetrahedra, and exhibits an ionic conductivity of 1.5(3)×10^–7 S · cm^–1 at 27 °C. LiGe₃P₃ crystallizes in Pbam with a = 9.8459(5) Å, b = 15.7489(7) Å, and c = 3.5995(2) Å. In LiGe₃P₃ Ge and P atoms form a two dimensional polyanion. The slabs consist of five- and six-membered heteroatomic rings comprising GeP₄ and Ge(P₃Ge) tetrahedra including homoatomic Ge–Ge bonds. A semiconducting behavior with an electronic conductivity of ∼10^–4 S · cm^–1 and a remarkable stability vs. air and moisture is observed.     

Complexes H2CO:PXH2 and HCO2H : PXH2 for X=NC,F, Cl,CN, OH,CCH, CH3, and H: Pnicogen Bonds and Hydrogen Bonds

Ab initio MP2/aug’-cc-pVTZ calculations have been carried out to investigate H₂CO : PXH₂ pnicogen-bonded complexes and HCO₂H : PXH₂ complexes that are stabilized by pnicogen bonds and hydrogen bonds, with X=NC, F, Cl, CN, OH, CCH, CH₃, and H. The binding energies of these complexes exhibit a second-order dependence on the O−P distance. DFT-SAPT binding energies correlate linearly with MP2 binding energies. The HCO₂H : PXH₂ complexes are stabilized by both a pnicogen bond and a hydrogen bond, resulting in greater binding energies for the HCO₂H : PXH₂ complexes compared to H₂CO : PXH₂. Neither the O−P distance across the pnicogen bond nor the O−P distance across the hydrogen bond correlates with the binding energies of these complexes. The nonlinearity of the hydrogen bonds suggests that they are relatively weak bonds, except for complexes in which the substituent X is either CH₃ or H. The pnicogen bond is the more important stabilizing interaction in the HCO₂H : PXH₂ complexes except when the substituent X is a more electropositive group. EOM-CCSD spin-spin coupling constants ^1pJ(O−P) across pnicogen bonds in H₂CO:PXH₂ and HCO₂H : PXH₂ complexes increase as the O−P distance decreases, and exhibit a second order dependence on that distance. There is no correlation between ^2hJ(O−P) and the O−P distance across the hydrogen bond in the HCO₂H : PXH₂ complexes. ^2hJ(O−P) coupling constants for complexes with X=CH₃ and H have much greater absolute values than anticipated from their O−P distances.

Synthesis and characterization of SiO2–CrO3, SiO2–MoO3, and SiO2–WO3 mixed oxides produced using the non-hydrolytic sol–gel process

Silica-based mixed oxide xerogels, namely SiO₂–CrO₃, SiO₂–MoO₃, and SiO₂–WO₃, were prepared using the non-hydrolytic sol–gel process. The materials were synthesized using metal chloride:tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) molar ratios of 0.1:2; 0.2:2 and 0.4:2 for each metal chloride and 1:2 SiCl₄:TEOS molar ratio. All of the xerogels containing Cr, Mo or W had considerably greater surface areas than that of SiO₂. The small angle X-ray scattering experiments suggest that the surface roughness of the aggregates in SiO₂–CrO₃ is less than that of SiO₂–MoO₃ and SiO₂–WO₃. The morphological characteristics of the silica-based mixed oxide xerogels were not affected by the nature and amount of metal chloride employed in the synthesis. An irregular morphology was observed for SiO₂–CrO₃, SiO₂–MoO₃ and SiO₂–WO₃, but a lamellar structure was observed for SiO₂. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis suggests that tungsten species were preferentially distributed on the outmost part of the grain. The resulting particle diameter was shown to be lower for the mixed oxides compared to that of bare silica. Furthermore, the presence of metals (Cr, Mo and W) on silica caused a decrease in the size of the particles as the atomic radii of these metals increased. According to the Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and Raman, Cr, Mo and W were incorporated within the silica framework.     

Stannylenes: structures, electron affinities, ionization energies, and singlet-triplet gaps of SnX2/SnXY and XSnR/SnR2/RSnR′ species (X; Y = H, F, Cl, Br, I, and R; R' = CH3, SiH3, GeH3, SnH3)

Systematic computational studies of stannylene derivatives SnX(2)/SnXY and XSnR/SnR(2)/RSnR' were carried out using density functional theory. The basis sets used for H, F, Cl, Br, C, Si, and Ge atoms are of double-ζ plus polarization quality with additional s- and p-type diffuse functions, denoted DZP++. For the iodine and tin atoms, the Stuttgart-Dresden basis sets, with relativistic small-core effective core potentials (ECP), are used. All geometries are fully optimized with three functionals (BHLYP, BLYP, and B3LYP). Harmonic vibrational wavenumber analyses are performed to evaluate zero-point energy corrections and to determine the nature of the stationary points located. Predicted are four types of neutral-anion separations, plus adiabatic ionization energies (E(IE)) and singlet-triplet energy gaps (ΔE(S-T)). The dependence of all three energetic properties upon choice of substituent is remarkably strong. The EA(ad(ZPVE)) values (eV) obtained with the B3LYP functional range from 0.70 eV [Sn(CH(3))(2)] to 2.36 eV [SnI(2)]. The computed E(IE) values lie between 7.33 eV [Sn(SnH(3))(2)] and 11.15 eV [SnF(2)], while the singlet-triplet splittings range from 0.60 eV [Sn(SnH(3))(2)] to 3.40 eV [SnF(2)]. The geometries and energetics compare satisfactorily with the few available experiments, while most of these species are investigated for the first time. Some unusual structures are encountered for the SnXI(+) (X = F, Cl, and Br) cations. The structural parameters and energetics are discussed and compared with the carbene, silylene, and germylene analogues.     

1 ,3 ,2-Oxazaphospholidine Derivatives(I)——The Synthessa of 2 - Diethylamino- 3-arylsulfonyl- 1,3,2-Oxazaphospholidine and Its 2-thiono Deiativea and Their Properties

A series of new 2-diethylamino-3-substituted phenylsulfonyl-1,3,2-oxazaphospholidine derivatives (Ⅰ) has been synthesized by the reaction of tris(diethylamino) phosphine with N-(β-hydroxyethyl) substitutedphenylsulfonamides. When was refluxed with sulfur in benzene, the 2-thiono derivatives (Ⅱ) was obtained conveniently.(Ⅰ) was easily oxidized in air and the diethylamino group could be substituted by phenoxy or other amino group giving the corresponding derivatives. Their H NMR and MS spectra have been discussed. Some of compounds (Ⅱ) have herbicidal activities.     

The all non-metal homodinuclear and heterodinuclear sandwich-like compounds C2(η3-L3)2 and BN(η3-L3)2 (L = BCO, BNN and CBO)

Density functional theory studies on the all non-metal homodinuclear and heterodinuclear sandwich-like compounds C(2)(η(3)-L(3))(2) and BN(η(3)-L(3))(2) (L = BCO, BNN and CBO) have been performed. The staggered conformations of both C(2)(η(3)-L(3))(2) and BN(η(3)-L(3))(2) are predicted to be stable. The non-metal direct C-C and B-N bonds are covalent with σ interactions, which are formed by the interactions of s and p(z) orbitals of the center atoms. Different from the ionic metal-ligand bond in the traditional metal center sandwich-like compounds, the C-L, B-L, and N-L bonds are covalent in these all non-metal sandwich-like compounds. The NICS values indicate that the ligands of C(2)(η(3)-L(3))(2) and BN(η(3)-L(3))(2), as well as their bare rings, display multiple aromaticity (σ and π aromaticity). Both σ and π aromaticity of the ring ligands towards the center atoms become stronger after complexation with the center atoms, while the π aromaticity against the center atoms is reduced. The π aromaticity of the ligands bonded to different center atoms follows a trend of B > C > N, and the (CBO)(3)(+) ligands bonded to B possess the strongest π aromaticity. The dissociation reactions and possible synthetic reactions analysis show that these all non-metal sandwich-like compounds are stable, and the homodinuclear species are more stable than the heterodinuclear ones. These all non-metal binuclear sandwich-like compounds can be regarded as potential synthetic targets according to the highly negative free energies of the possible synthetic reactions. The isomerization reactions demonstrate that the CBO-based compounds should be more possible to synthesize in experiments than their BCO-based isomers.     

Synthesis and structural characterization of camphanates of (−)-(2S3S,3S) and (+)-(2S,3R)-4-Phenyl-3-bromo-2-butanol diastereoisomers

The X-ray crystal structures of (–)-syn-4-phenyl-3-bromo-2-butyl camphanate (I) and (+-anti-4-phenyl-3-bromo-2-butyl camphanate (II) have been determined. Thesyn diastereoisomer of bromohydrin has the (2S,3S) absolute configuration whereas theanti diastereoisomer has the (2S,3R) absolute configuration. The crystallized derivatives I and II have been obtained by the reaction of each stereoisomer of bromohydrin, synthesized by reduction with baker's yeast, with (1S)-camphanic chloride. Crystal data: (I) C₂₀H₂₅BrO₄:M _w: 409.32; orthorhombic,P2₁2₁2₁;a=11.245(3),b=12.086(1),c=14.512(4) å; Z=4; finalR=0.053 for 1819 observed reflections.

Infrared,Raman and XPS spectroscopic studies of Bi2O3–B2O3–Ga2O3 glasses

Glasses with compositions 60Bi₂O₃–(40?x)B₂O₃–xGa₂O₃ (x = 5, 10, 15, 20 mol%) are prepared by conventional melting method. The thermal properties are investigated by differential thermal analysis (DTA) and the structures of the glasses were probed by Infrared, Raman and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The results show that density, refractive index and optical basicity increase with the increase of Ga₂O₃. The glass transition temperature (T_g), the onset crystallization temperature (T_x), ΔT (T_x?T_g) decrease with the content of Ga₂O₃. The cut-off edges in ultraviolet and infrared shift to longer wavelength with the increase of Ga₂O₃. On the other hand, the addition of Ga₂O₃ causes a progressive coordination number change of the boron atom from 3 to 4. XPS result indicates both Bi⁵⁺ and Bi³⁺ exist in 5 mol% Ga₂O₃ content, while Bi⁵⁺ amounts decrease with the increase of Ga₂O₃ contents. The glass is mainly composed of [BiO₆], [BO₃], [BO₄] and [GaO₄] polyhedra. Glasses are supposed to have layer structure. [BO₃] triangle and [BO₄] tetrahedra may be located between the [GaO₄] tetrahedral and [BiO₆] octahedra to prevent crystallization and to compensate electric charge.     

The CO_2 laser-induced radical-chain reactions between CH_3CF_2H and chlorine-atom donors CF_2ClCFCl_2, CF_3CCl_3 CFCl_3 or CF_2Cl_2

The CO_2 laser induced room temperature reactions of CH_3CF_2H or another protium-donorCH_3CHClCH_3 with chlorine-atom donors (Z--Cl) CFCl_2CF_2Cl, CF_3CCl_3, CFCl_3 or CF_2Cl_2, havebeen investigated. Some of these reactions can yield two important monomers (CF_2=CH_2 andCF_2=CFCl) for fluoropolymers simultaneously. The yield dependence of these two alkenes on experi-mental conditions has been studied. A laser-initiated chain process is supported by identifica-tion of Z--H intermediates in these reactions.

Optimisation of pressurised liquid extraction for the determination of p,p′-DDT and p,p′-DDE in aged contaminated Ethiopian soils

The effectiveness of extracting p,p′-DDT and p,p′-DDE from aged contaminated soil samples by means of pressurized liquid extraction (PLE) was evaluated. Two soil samples, which were contaminated more than 10 years ago, were used in the investigation. The static extraction time was optimised and then validated against the total sum of target analytes obtained from multiple sequential extractions. The PLE results were also compared with Soxhlet extraction (SOX). PLE for 3×10 min at 100 °C was proven to be more exhaustive than SOX in the determination of p,p′-DDE from both soil samples. In the case of p,p′-DDT, PLE was found to be equally as exhaustive as SOX. Additionally, most of the previous PLE investigations used hazardous organic solvents such as n-hexane, toluene and dichloromethane mixed with acetone, whereas in this investigation the less toxic solvent combination n-heptane/acetone has been employed.     

Evaluation of Electron Population Terms for 〈rSe−3〉4p, 〈rS−3〉3p,and 〈rO−3〉2p: How Do HOMO and LUMO Shrink or Expand Depending on Nuclear Charges?

Electron population terms are evaluated for N=Se, S, and O. Calculations are performed on HOMO and LUMO constructed by pure atomic 4p(Se), 3p(S), and 2p(O) orbitals, employing the 6-311+G(3d) and/or 6-311(++)G(3df,3pd) basis sets at the HF, MP2, and DFT (B3 LYP) levels. Se(4+), Se(2+), Se(0), and Se(2-) with the O(h) symmetry are called G(A: Se) and HSe(+), H(2)Se, and HSe(-) with the C(infinityh) or C(2v) symmetry are named G(B: Se), here [G(A+B: Se) in all]. HOMO and LUMO in G(A+B: N) (N=Se, S, and O) satisfy the conditions of the calculations for . The (4p), (3p), and (2p) values correlate well with the corresponding MO energies (epsilon(N)) for all calculation levels employed. Plots of (HOMO) and (LUMO) versus Q(N) (N=Se, S, and O) at the HF and MP2 levels are analyzed as two correlations. However, the plots at the DFT level can be analyzed as single correlation. A regression curve is assumed for the analysis. Behaviors of clarify how valence orbitals shrink or expand depending on Q(N). The applicability of is examined to establish a new method that enables us to analyze chemical shifts with the charge effect separately from others. A utility program derived from the Gaussian 03 (NMRANAL-NH03G) is applied to evaluate and examine the applicability to the NMR analysis.     

Weak interactions in ion–ligand complexes of C3H3(+) isomers: competition between H-bound and C-bound structures in c-C3H3(+)·L and H2CCCH(+)·L (L = Ne, Ar, N2, CO2, and O2)

Explicitly correlated coupled cluster theory at the CCSD(T)-F12x level (T. B. Adler, G. Knizia, and H.-J. Werner, J. Chem. Phys.127, 221106, 2007) has been employed to study structures and vibrations of complexes of type c-C(3)H(3)(+)·L and H(2)C(3)H(+)·L (L = Ne, Ar, N(2), CO(2), and O(2)). Both cations have different binding sites, allowing for the formation of weak to moderately strong hydrogen bonds as well as "C-bound" or "π-bound" structures. In contrast to previous expectations, the energetically most favourable structures of all H(2)C(3)H(+)·L complexes investigated are "C-bound", with the ligand bound to the methylenic carbon atom. The theoretical predictions enable a more detailed interpretation of infrared photodissociation (IRPD) spectra than was possible hitherto. In particular, the bands observed in the range 3238-3245 cm(-1) (D. Roth and O. Dopfer, Phys. Chem. Chem. Phys.4, 4855, 2002) are assigned to essentially free acetylenic CH stretching vibrations of the propargyl cation in "C-bound" H(2)C(3)H(+)·L complexes.
