13C NMR Chemical Shifts of β-Alkoxyvinyl Ketones: III✠-Empirical Substituent Effects in 1-Alkylamino-6-Ethoxy-1,5-Hexadien-3,4-Diones and 1,6-bis(Alkylamino)-1,5-Hexadien-3,4-diones

Evaluation by empirically derived equations for the substituent effect (E_Xn and E_Yn, n = 1 to 6) on the ¹³C NMR chemical shifts for C-1, C-2, C-3, C-4, C-5 and C-6 in 1-alkylamino-6-ethoxy-1,5-hexadien-3,4-diones 1a-f and 1,6-bis(alkylamino)-1,5-hexadien-3,4-diones 2a-f [XCH=CHC(O)-C(O)CH=CHY, where X, Y = OEt, NH₂, PhCH₂NH, n-BuNH, i-PrNH, cyclo-C₆H₁₁NH, t-BuNH], taking as reference the 1,6-diethoxy-1,5-hexadien-3,4-dione (3), is reported. From the calculated values for the E_Xn and E_Yn effects for each substituent it was possible to estimate the chemical shift of each carbon of the compounds 1,2 with excellent precision: 100% of the calculated chemical shifts are found to be within ±0.5ppm. The carbon-13 chemical shifts of C-1, C-2 and C-3 of compounds 1a,2a,3 led a good correlation with carbon charge densities (qr).     

Analysis of 1H and 13C{1H} NMR Spectral Parameters and Geometries of Three Isomeric Diphenylbicyclo[2.2.1]Hept-5-Ene-2,3-Dicarboxylic Anhydrides

Diels-Alder adducts of 1,4-diphenyl-1,3-cyclopentadiene and maleic anhydride were investigated by recording the ¹H and ¹³C{¹H} NMR spectra of three isomeric diphenylbicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5-ene endo and exo 2,3-dianhydrides. the spectra were recorded in CD₂Cl₂ and analysed completely. the effect of the endo and exo configuration of the anhydride ring on the chemical shifts of the bridgehead phenyl protons is discussed. the ortho protons of the exo isomers resonate at higher field than those of the endo isomer, and the resonance pattern of the aromatic protons is narrower in the exo than the endo anhydride. the aromatic regions of the spectra are compared with the same regions of the ¹H NMR spectra of the earlier investigated addition products of 1,4-di-p-tolyl-1,3-cyclopentadiene and 1-phenyl-4-p-tolyl-1,3-cyclopentadiene with maleic anhydride. Chemical shifts of the bridge protons are explained on the basis of X-ray data of the compounds and MacroModel calculations on the minimum energy conformations.     

Structural Assignments of 1‐(β‐d‐Glucopyranosyl)‐1,2,3‐triazoles by 1H‐ and 13C‐NMR Study

The ¹H‐ and ¹³C‐NMR spectra of 1‐β‐d‐glucopyranosyl‐1,2,3‐triazole‐4,5‐dimethyl carboxylate, 1‐β‐d‐glucopyranosyl‐1,2,3‐triazole‐4,5‐dicarboxamide, ‐dialkylcarboxamide‐N‐nucleosides 4–18, and 6‐amino‐4H‐1‐(1‐β‐d‐glucopyranosyl)‐8‐hydroxy‐1,2,3‐triazolo[4,5‐e][1,3]‐diazepin‐4‐one 19 had been studied. Resonance signals and anomeric configurations were assigned by homo‐ and heteronuclear two dimensional methods (DQF‐COSY, HSQC, HMBC, HMQC, ROESY).     

Rotational Analysis of the 1–4 Band of the B 2Σ+–X 2Σ+ System of 14C16O+

ABSTRACT

High-resolution emission spectrum of the 1–4 band of the B ²Σ⁺–X ²Σ⁺ transition of ¹⁴C¹⁶O⁺ was observed for the first time by conventional emission spectroscopy. The band spectrum was excited in a water-cooled Geissler lamp filled with commercial gaseous carbon monoxide enriched in about 80% of the radiocarbon ¹⁴C. A rotational analysis has been carried out and obtained molecular constants have been merged with previously published data for the B ²Σ⁺–A ²Π_i and A ²Π_i–X ²Σ⁺ transitions. The principal equilibrium constants for the ground X ²Σ⁺ state obtained from this work are ω_e = 2121.7726(98), ω_e x _e = 13.9055(27), B _e = 1.815290(30), α_e = 1.6594(33) × 10^?2, and γ_e = ? 0.377(73) × 10^?4 cm^?1. Also, presently known experimental equilibrium molecular constants of the X ²Σ⁺ states of the CO⁺ isotopic molecules are summarized and isotopic dependence of the B _e and ω _e constants is discussed.     

Enhancement of upconversion luminescence in Tm/Er/Yb-codoped glass ceramic containing LiYF4 nanocrystals

A transparent Er³⁺–Tm³⁺–Yb³⁺ tri-doped oxyfluoride glass ceramics containing LiYF₄ nanocrystals were prepared. Under 980 nm laser diode (LD) pumping, intensive red, green and blue upconversion (UC) was obtained. The blue, green, and red UC radiations correspond to the transitions ¹G₄→³H₆ of Tm³⁺, ²H_11/2/⁴S_3/2→⁴I_15/2, and ⁴F_9/2→⁴I_15/2 of Er³⁺ ions, respectively. This is similar to that in Tm³⁺–Yb³⁺ and/or Er³⁺–Yb³⁺ co-doped glass ceramics. However, the blue UC radiations of the Er³⁺–Yb³⁺ co-doped glass ceramics is two-photon process due to cooperative energy transfer. The UC mechanisms were proposed based on spectral, kinetic, and pump power dependence analyses.     

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.     

Ultraviolet excitation of rare-earth-doped YSZ crystals

Abstract

The optical properties of nominally pure and Er³⁺- or Pr³⁺ -doped yttria-stabilized zirconia single crystals were investigated under UV light excitation. In the excitation spectra of both types of doped crystals, a broad UV band is observed. Under excitation with light of different wavelengths inside this band, the luminescence features of the doped crystals are different. YSZ: Pr³⁺ samples exhibit the characteristic 4f → 4f emission of the Pr³⁺ ions. In YSZ: Er³⁺ crystals, both the Er³⁺ ion and the intrinsic luminescence are observed. Host to Er³⁺ ion radiative energy-transfer is also demonstrated. No dependence of the transfer process with the excitation wavelength was found. These results suggest that the UV band in Er³⁺ -doped crystals is associated with the lattice-dopant ion interaction rather than with the 4f5d interconfigurational band of the Er^3? ions.

Spectroscopy of Na: Bridging the two-proton radioactivity of Mg

The unbound nucleus ¹⁸Na, the intermediate nucleus in the two-proton radioactivity of ¹⁹Mg, was studied by the measurement of the resonant elastic scattering reaction H(¹⁷Ne,p)¹⁷Ne performed at 4 A.MeV using a radioactive beam from the SPIRAL Facility. Spectroscopic properties of the low-lying states were obtained in an R-matrix analysis of the excitation function.     

13C NMR Chemical Shifts of Heterocycles: Empirical Substituent Effects in 5-Halomethylisoxazoles

Evaluation by empirically derived equations for the Substituent effect (α, β, γ, δ) on the ¹³C NMR chemical shifts for C-3, C-4. C-5 and halomethyl-substituent carbon (C-6) in isoxazoles 1-5 [where C-3 substituent (R¹) = H, alkyl or phenyl, C-4 Substituent (R²) = H, alkyl, and C-5 substituent (R³) = di-or trihalomethyl, methyl and H], taking as reference the compound la, is reported. From the calculated values for the α, β, γ, δ effects for each substituent it was possible to estimate the chemical shift of each carbon of the compounds 1–5. The ¹³ C chemical shifts of the C-3, C-4, C-5, C-6 of these compounds, can be estimated with good precision: 94% of the calculated chemical shifts are found to be within ±1.0ppm, and 100% are found to be within ±1.5ppm.     

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.     

Upconverted VUV luminescence of Nd and Er doped into LiYF4 crystals under XeF-laser excitation

The upconverted VUV (185 nm) and UV (230 and 260 nm) luminescence due to 5d-4f radiative transitions in Nd³⁺ ions doped into a LiYF₄ crystal has been obtained under excitation by 351/353 nm radiation from a XeF excimer laser. The maximum upconversion efficiency, defined as the ratio of intensity for 5d-4f luminescence to overall intensity for 5d-4f and 4f-4f luminescence from the ⁴D_3/2 Nd³⁺ level, has been estimated to be about 70% under optimal focusing conditions for XeF laser radiation. A redistribution of intensity between three main components of 5d-4f Nd³⁺ luminescence is observed under changing the excitation power density, which favors the most long-wavelength band (260 nm) at higher excitation density level. The effect is interpreted as being due to excited state absorption of radiation emitted. The upconverted VUV and UV luminescence from the high-lying ²F(2)_7/2 4f level of Er³⁺ doped into a LiYF₄ crystal has also been obtained under XeF-laser excitation the most intense line being at 280 nm from the spin-allowed transition to the ²H(2)_11/2 4f level of Er³⁺, but the efficiency of upconversion for Er³⁺ emission is low, less than 5%.

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.     

Energy transfer and upconversion of Nd doped RbY2Cl7

Single crystals of Nd³⁺:RbY₂Cl₇ were grown by the Bridgman-Stockbarger method. The host crystal contains two slightly inequivalent Y³⁺ ions, each with an approximate C_2v site symmetry. Anti-Stokes emission from the ⁴G_7/2 and ⁴D_3/2 levels was observed after laser excitation of the ⁴F_3/2 and ⁴F_9/2 multiplets. Laser excitation at 413 cm⁻¹ or 453 cm⁻¹ above the ⁴F_3/2 multiplet resulted in emission from the ²P_1/2 level. Laser site-selective upconverted emission spectra have been measured, as well as their emission transients and power dependence. Possible excited state absorption and energy-transfer upconversion (ETU) mechanisms are proposed and discussed. Due to the smaller crystal field and a somewhat different energy level structure for the Nd³⁺ ions in RbY₂Cl₇ as compared with those observed for Nd³⁺ in fluoride or oxide hosts, the ⁴G_7/2 and ⁴D_3/2 multiplets are populated under ⁴F_3/2 excitation in a three and four step ETU process, respectively, instead of in a two and three step process as observed for the lighter hosts.

NQR, NMR and Crystal Structure Studies of [C(NH2)3]2HgX4 (X = Br, I)

The crystal structure of [C(NH₂)₃]₂HgBr₄ has been determined at room temperature: monoclinic, space group C2/c, with a = 10.035(2), b = 11.164(2), c = 13.358(3) Å, β = 111.67(3)°, and Z = 4. The crystal consists of planar [C(NH₂)₃]⁺ and distorted tetrahedral [HgBr₄]^2? ions. The Hg atom is located on a two-fold axis such that two sets of inequivalent Br atoms exist in an [HgBr₄]^2? ion. In accordance with the crystal structure, two ⁸¹Br NQR lines widely separated in frequency were observed between 77 and ca. 380 K. [C(NH₂)₃]₂HgI₄ yielded four ¹²⁷I NQR lines ascribable to m = ±1/2 ? ±3/2 transitions, indicating that its crystal structure is different from the bromide complex. The ¹H NMR T ₁ measurements showed a single minimum for the bromide but two minima for the iodide. The analyses based on the C₃ reorientations of the planar [C(NH₂)₃]⁺ ions gave the activation energies of 29.8 kJ mol^?1 for the bromide, and 30.2 and 40.0 kJ mol^?1 for the iodide.     

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.     

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.     

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.
