Spectrophotometric Study of Zinc,Cadmium and Lead Complexes with Murexide in Binary Ethanol-Water Mixtures

The complexation reactions between murexide and Zn²⁺, Cd²⁺ and Pb²⁺ ions in C₂H₅OH-H₂ mixtures have been investigated spectrophotometrically. Formation constants of the resulting 1:1 complexes were determined and found to vary in the order Pb²⁺ > Cd²⁺ > Zn²⁺, in all binary ethanol-water mixtures used. There is an inverse relationship between the complex formation constants and amount of water in the mixed solvent. A linear relationship was observed between log K_f for complexes and the mole fraction of ethanol.     

Formation of gold nanoparticles in gold ruby glass: The influence of tin

A ¹¹⁹Sn Mössbauer study was carried out of tin(IV) complexes with 2-benzoylpyridine thiosemicarbazone (H2Bz4DH) and its N(4)-methyl (H2Bz4M) and N(4)-phenyl (H2Bz4Ph) derivatives: [Sn(2Bz4DH)Cl₃] (1), [Sn(2Bz4DH)PhCl₂] (2), [Sn(2Bz4M)Cl₃] (3), [H₂2Bz4M]₂[Ph₂SnCl₄] (4), [Sn(2Bz4Ph)PhCl₂] (5), [Sn(2Bz4Ph)Ph₂Cl] (6), in which H2Bz4R stands for the neutral ligand and 2Bz4R stands for the anionic thiosemicarbazone. In addition, ¹¹⁹Sn Mössbauer studies of the tin(IV) complexes [Sn(H4Bz4DH)₂Cl₄H₂O] (7), [Sn(H4BzPS)₂Cl₄H₂O] (8) with 4-benzoylpyridine thiosemicarbazone (H4Bz4DH) and the correspondent semicarbazone (H4BzPS) were performed. The isomer shifts decrease upon coordination due to the variation in the percentage of s character as tin changes from approximately sp³ hybridization in the tin salts to sp³d² in the octahedral or sp³d³ in the heptahedral complexes. The Mössbauer parameters of compound (4) showed the existence of two tin(IV) sites, which have been attributed to the presence of the cis and trans isomers.

Spectroscopic properties of the rubidium and cesium aluminum double molybdate crystals

Infrared, Raman, electron absorption, excitation and emission spectra were measured for RbCr_xAl_1−x(MoO₄)₂ and CsCr_xAl_1−x(MoO₄)₂ crystals (x=0-2%) at the temperatures ranging from 7 to 300 K. A very rich vibronic structure of the emission band was explained and assigned to the respective vibrational modes. One Cr³⁺ center characterized by 2.35 ms lifetimes for rubidium derivative and 1.3 ms for cesium one at 7 K for the ²E→⁴A₂ transition was identified for both crystals. The local structure of the Cr³⁺ surrounding is discussed in terms of the spectroscopic results and the crystal field parameters are derived for both materials.     

The B 2Σ+–X 2Σ+ Transition of 12C17O+: The 2‐υ″ Progression

Abstract

Three new bands of the B ²Σ⁺–X ²Σ⁺ system of ¹²C¹⁷O⁺ have been investigated using conventional spectroscopic techniques. The spectra were observed in a graphite hollow‐cathode lamp by discharging molecular oxygen (enriched in about 45% of the ¹⁷O₂ isotope) under 1.0 Torr pressure. The rotational analysis of the 2–4, 2–5, and 2–6 bands was performed with the effective Hamiltonian of Brown (Brown et al., J. Mol. Spectrosc. 1979; 74: 294–318). Molecular constants were derived from a merge calculation, including both the current wavenumbers and the spectroscopic data published by the authors previously. The principal equilibrium constants for the ground state of ¹²C¹⁷O⁺ are ω_e=2185.9658(84), ω_e x _e = 14.7674(11), B _e=1.927001(38), α_e=1.8236(22)×10^?2, γ_e=?0.331(28)×10^?4, D _e=6.041(12)×10^?6, β_e=0.100(31)×10^?7 cm^?1, and the equilibrium constants for the excited state are σ_e=45876.499(15), ω_e=1712.201(12), ω_e x _e=27.3528(39), B _e=1.754109(35), α_e=2.8706(57)×10^?2, γ_e = ?1.15(19)×10^?4, D _e=7.491(20)×10^?6, β_e=2.13(12)×10^?7, γ_e = 2.0953(97)×10^?2, and α_γe=?9.46(59)×10^?4 cm^?1, respectively. Rydberg–Klein–Rees potential energy curves were constructed for the B ²Σ⁺ and X ²Σ⁺ states of this molecule, and Franck–Condon factors were calculated for the vibrational bands of the B–X system.

Upconversion luminescence of Tm^3＋/Yb^3＋ codoped oxyfluoride glasses

Novel oxyfluoride glasses are developed with the composition of 30SiO2-15Al2O3-28PbF2-22CdF2-0.1TmF3 - xYbF3 - （4.9 - x） AlF3（x=0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0） in tool fraction, Furthermore, the upconversion luminescence characteristics under a 970nm excitation are investigated. Intense blue, red and near infrared luminescences peaked at 453nm, 476nm, 647nm and 789nm, which correspond to the transitions of Tm^3＋： ^1D2 →^3F4, ^1G4 →^3H6, ^1G4 →^3F4, and ^3H4 →^3H6, respectively, are observed. Due to the sensitization of Yb^3＋ ions, all the upconversion luminescence intensities are enhanced considerably with Yb^3＋ concentration increasing. The upconversion mechanisms are discussed based on the energy matching rule and quadratic dependence on excitation power. The results indicate that the dominant mechanism is the excited state absorption for those upconversion emissions.     

Synthesis and luminescence properties of Eu, Ce and Tb-activated Sr3La2(BO3)4 under UV excitation

The spectroscopic properties in UV-excitable range for the phosphors of Sr₃La₂(BO₃)₄:RE³⁺ (RE³⁺=Eu³⁺, Ce³⁺, Tb³⁺) were investigated. The phosphors were synthesized by conventional solid-state reactions. The photoluminescence (PL) spectra and commission international de I'Eclairage (CIE) coordinates of Sr₃La₂(BO₃)₄:RE³⁺ were investigated. The f-d transitions of Eu³⁺, Ce³⁺ and Tb³⁺ in the host lattices are assumed and corroborated. The PL and PL excitation (PLE) spectra indicate that the main emission wavelength of Sr₃La₂(BO₃)₄:Eu³⁺ is 611 nm, and Sr₃La₂(BO₃)₄:Ce³⁺ shows dominating emission peak at 425 nm, while Sr₃La₂(BO₃)₄:Tb³⁺ displays green emission at 487, 542, 582 and 620 nm. These phosphors were prepared by simple solid-state reaction at 1000 °C. There are lower reactive temperature and more convenient than commercial phosphors. The Sr₃La₂(BO₃)₄:Tb³⁺ applied to cold cathode fluorescent lamp was found to emit green light and have a major peak wavelength at around 542 nm. These phosphors may provide a new kind of luminescent materials under ultraviolet excitation.

1H and 13C n.m.r. Conformational Analysis of Adrenergic Drugs. Part 2. N-Isopropyl-N- {3-[4(4-Methoxybenzoylamino)Phenoxy]-2-Hydroxypropyl} Ammonium Chloride,a New β1-Blocking Agent

Abstract

Dynamic and structural features of N-Isopropyl-N- {3-[4(4-Methoxybenzoylamino)Phenoxy]-2-Hydroxypropyl} Ammonium Chloride in [²H₆]DMSO were investigated by measuring ¹³C and ¹H spin-lattice relaxation rates and ¹³C- {¹H} and ¹H- {¹H} n.O.e. Correlation times for main and internal reorientational motions were interpreted in terms of internal rotation around the two planal axes. Selective and double-selective ¹H spin-lattice relaxation rates were measured, wherefrom relevant proton-proton intramolecular distances were calculated. It was shown that the β₁? blocking agent assumes a preferred conformation where extensive intramolecular H-bonding prevents segmental motion along the quaternary ammonium sidechain.     

Growth and optical properties of Yb and Tb codoped BaB2O4 crystals

Optical absorption and luminescence spectra of ytterbium and terbium codoped BaB₂O₄ (β-BBO and α-BBO) crystals grown in different conditions have been studied. Low-temperature absorption peaks were observed in all samples. Features related to rare earth ions were observed in absorption and luminescence spectra. Absorption and emission in the range 860-1000 nm are caused by ²F_5/2↔²F_7/2 transitions in Yb³⁺ ions. Emission peaks at 500, 550, 590 and 630 nm correspond to ⁵D₄→⁷F₆, ⁷F₅, ⁷F₄, and ⁷F₃ transitions of Tb³⁺ ions, respectively. The probable reasons of variations in spectroscopic features related to Yb in BBO host are discussed. It has been shown that the replacement of Ва²⁺ by Yb³⁺ in the lattice of ВаВ₂О₄ results in the decrease in the symmetry of oxygen surrounding of Yb³⁺.     

Theory studies of the local lattice distortions and the EPR parameters for Cu2+, Mn2+ and Fe3+ centres in ZnWO4

The local lattice distortions and the electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) parameters (g factors, hyperfine structure constants and zero-field splittings) for Cu²⁺, Mn²⁺ and Fe³⁺ in ZnWO₄ are theoretically studied based on the perturbation calculations for rhombically elongated octahedral 3d⁹ and 3d⁵ complexes. The impurity centres on Zn²⁺ sites undergo the local elongations of 0.01, 0.002 and 0.013 Å along the C₂ axis and the planar bond angle variations of 8.1°, 8.0° and 8.6° for Cu²⁺, Mn²⁺ and Fe³⁺, respectively, due to the Jahn–Teller effect and size and charge mismatch. In contrast to the host Zn²⁺ site with obvious axial elongation (～0.31 Å) and perpendicular (angular) rhombic distortion, all the impurity centres demonstrate more regular octahedral due to the above local lattice distortions. The copper centre exhibits significant Jahn–Teller reductions for the spin-orbit coupling and orbital angular momentum interactions, characterised by the Jahn–Teller reduction factor J (≈0.29 ? 1). The calculated EPR parameters agree well with the experimental results. The local structures of the impurity centres are analysed in view of the corresponding lattice distortions.     

Study on up-conversion emissions of Yb/Tm co-doped GdF3 and NaGdF4

The Yb³⁺/Tm³⁺ co-doped GdF₃ and NaGdF₄ samples were synthesized through a combination method of a co-precipitation and an argon atmosphere annealing procedures. X-ray diffraction analysis indicated that the Yb³⁺/Tm³⁺ co-doped GdF₃ sample crystallized well and was orthorhombic phase, and the Yb³⁺/Tm³⁺ co-doped NaGdF₄ sample was hexagonal phase. With a 980-nm semiconductor continuous wave laser diode as the excitation source, the up-conversion emission spectra of the two samples in the wavelength range of 240-510 nm were recorded. In the up-conversion emissions of the samples, Yb³⁺ transferred energies to Tm³⁺ resulting in their ultraviolet, violet, and blue up-conversion emissions. And, Tm³⁺ simultaneously transferred energies to Gd³⁺, which finally resulted in ultraviolet up-conversion emissions of Gd³⁺. The study on the excitation power dependence of up-conversion fluorescence intensity indicated that there were multi-photon (three-, four-, five-, and six-) processes in the up-conversion emissions of the samples. And the up-conversion emissions of Gd³⁺ and Tm³⁺ in the Yb³⁺/Tm³⁺ co-doped GdF₃ and NaGdF₄ samples were compared studied, too.     

New spectroscopic studies of the Comet-Tail (AΠi-XΣ) system of the CO molecule

In the electronic emission spectrum of the ¹²C¹⁶O⁺ molecule, 11 bands of the Comet-Tail (A²Π_i-X²Σ⁺) system have been recorded and analyzed. Spin splitting in most of the observed lines of the 0-2, 1-0, 2-0, 2-1, 3-0, 4-0, 4-2, 6-0, 7-0, 7-1, and 8-1 bands, comprising nearly 3400 lines, has been recorded under high resolution by conventional spectroscopy. The rotational analysis of bands has been performed by nonlinear least-squares procedures and by means of effective Hamiltonians of Brown et al. and the rovibronic structure parameters have been obtained. The data of bands of the A-X system and earlier analyzed bands of the B-X and B-A systems have been merged together. As a result of this global fit, the state of information about the energy structure has been significantly enlarged for the A state and enlarged and improved for the X state. Also RKR potential curves for both states and Franck-Condon factors as well as r-centroids of the Comet-Tail system of CO⁺ have been calculated.     

The electronic structure and photoluminescence properties of Ca2GeO4:Eu in ultraviolet and vacuum ultraviolet region

Ca₂GeO₄:Eu³⁺ phosphors were synthesized by the solid state method. The ultraviolet and vacuum ultraviolet excited photoluminescence properties were investigated in detail. It revealed that the emission of Ca₂GeO₄:Eu³⁺ comprised two parts: the red emission of Eu³⁺ and host defect emission in 330-550 nm. Ca₂GeO₄:Eu³⁺ presented intense excitation intensity at 163-200 and 466 nm, which suggested the potential applications in plasma display panels and light emitting diodes. The excitation spectra were studied to identify the photoluminescence mechanisms of Ca₂GeO₄:Eu³⁺. First principles calculation within the local density approximation of the density functional theory was applied to calculate the electronic structure and linear optical properties of Ca₂GeO₄.     

Study on charge transfer interaction and valence state of layered perovskite-type mixed valence complex [NH3(CH2) n NH3]2[(AuII2)(AuIIII4)(I3)2] (n = 7, 8), by means of 197Au Mössbauer spectroscopy

Cs₂[Au^I X ₂][Au^III X ₄](X = Cl, Br, and I) is well known for the three-dimensional perovskite-type gold mixed valence system. Recently, layered perovskite-type gold mixed valence complexes, [NH₃(CH₂) _n NH₃]₂[(Au^II₂)(Au^IIII₄)(I₃)₂] (n = 7 and 8), have been synthesized. We have investigated the relationship between the structural dimensionality and the Au^I–Au^III charge transfer interaction for Cs₂[Au^II₂][Au^IIII₄] and [NH₃(CH₂) _n NH₃]₂[(Au^II₂)(Au^IIII₄)(I₃)₂] (n = 7 and 8) by means of ¹⁹⁷Au Mössbauer spectroscopy.     

Global fittings of NNO and NNO vibrational-rotational line positions using the effective Hamiltonian approach

An effective Hamiltonian built up to sixth order in the Amat-Nielsen ordering scheme describing all rovibrational energy levels in the ground electronic state and containing in explicit form all resonance interaction terms due to the approximate relations between harmonic frequencies ω₁≈2ω₂ and ω₃≈4ω₂ was applied to model the observed rovibrational line positions (collected from the literature) of ¹⁴N¹⁵N¹⁶O and ¹⁵N¹⁴N¹⁶O isotopologues of nitrous oxide. For ¹⁴N¹⁵N¹⁶O, 124 effective Hamiltonian parameters were fitted to near 28 000 observed line positions covering the 0.8-8860 cm⁻¹ spectral range. The RMS of the weighted fit is 0.00126 cm⁻¹ and dimensionless standard deviation is 1.48. For ¹⁵N¹⁴N¹⁶O, 121 effective Hamiltonian parameters were fitted to more than 31 000 observed line positions covering the same spectral interval. The RMS of the weighted fit is 0.00185 cm⁻¹ and dimensionless standard deviation is 1.85. In both cases the models describe all available line positions with precision compatible to the measurement uncertainties. A number of local resonance perturbations was found and discussed. Among these perturbations there are interpolyad resonance Coriolis interactions. A comparison of HITRAN-2008 data with the calculations based on the fitted models is presented.     

Photoluminescence characterization of Ce and Dy doped Li2CaGeO4 phosphors

Ce³⁺ and Dy³⁺ activated Li₂CaGeO₄ phosphors were prepared by a solid-state reaction method, and characterized by XRD (X-ray diffraction) and photoluminescence techniques. The characteristic emission bands of Dy³⁺ due to ⁴F_9/2→⁶H_15/2 (blue) and ⁴F_9/2→⁶H_13/2 (yellow) transitions were detected in the emission spectra of Li₂CaGeO₄:Dy³⁺. Ce³⁺ broad band emission was observed in Li₂CaGeO₄:Ce³⁺ phosphors at 372 and 400 nm due to 5d→4f transition when excited at 353 nm. Co-doping of Ce³⁺ enhanced the luminescence of Dy³⁺ significantly and concentration quenching occurs when Dy³⁺ is beyond 0.04 mol%. White-light with different hues can be realized by tuning Dy³⁺ concentration in the phosphors.     

Magnitudes and Orientations of the N Chemical Shift Tensor of [1-N]-2′-Deoxyguanosine Determined on a Polycrystalline Sample by Two-Dimensional Solid-State NMR Spectroscopy

The magnitudes and orientations of the ¹⁵N chemical shift tensor of [1-¹⁵N]-2′-deoxyguanosine were determined from a polycrystalline sample using the two-dimensional PISEMA experiment. The magnitudes of the principal values of the ¹⁵N chemical shift tensor of the N1 nitrogen of [1-¹⁵N]-2′-deoxyguanosine were found to be ς₁₁ = 54 ppm, ς₂₂ = 148 ppm, and ς₃₃ = 201 ppm with respect to (¹⁵NH₄)₂SO₄ in aqueous solution. Comparisons of experimental and simulated two-dimensional powder pattern spectra show that ς_33N is approximately collinear with the N–H bond. The tensor orientation of ς_33N for N1 of [1-¹⁵N]-2′-deoxyguanosine is similar to the values obtained for the side chain residues of ¹⁵N_ε1-tryptophan and ¹⁵N_π-histidine even though the magnitudes differ significantly.
