1H and 13C NMR Spectral Study of Some 2r-Aryl-6c-phenylthian-4-ones,Their 1-Oxides and 1,1-Dioxides

ABSTRACT

Four 2r-aryl-6c-phenylthian-4-ones 1b?1e and their 1-oxides 2b?2e and 1,1-dioxides 3b?3e have been newly synthesized. ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectra have been recorded for all these compounds and 2r,6c-diphenylthian-4-one 1-oxide 2a. ¹³C NMR spectrum has been recorded for the sulfone 3a of 1a. For selected compounds ¹H-¹H COSY, HSQC, HMBC, and NOESY spectra have been recorded. The vicinal proton–proton coupling constants suggest that in all these compounds, the heterocyclic ring adopts chair conformation with equatorial orientations of the aryl and phenyl groups. Proton and carbon chemical shifts suggest that in the sulfoxides, the S=O bond is axial and enhances the J _aa value by some special effect. The S = O bond causes a significant upfield shift even on carbons without hydrogens. Significant solvent shifts also were observed.     

ANISOTROPY OF OPTICAL ABSORPTION INTENSITY IN Tm3+ DOPED YVO4 CRYSTALS

Seven absorption group-bands (¹D₂, ¹G₄, ³F₂, ³F₃, ³H₄, ³H₅, ³F₄) of Tm³⁺ in YVO₄ single crystals have been observed in the orientation absorption spectra recorded in the spectral range from 200 to 4000 nm at 300K. The integrated absorption cross section for each group-band was accurately evaluated. On the assumption that the anisotropy of this uni-axial crystal is small, the Judd-Ofelt theory was extended for the calculation of 4f-4f transition intensities of Tm³⁺ in YVO₄. Two sets of phenomenological intensity parameters were derived from a least-squares-fit procedure. For c-axis cut sample we have Ω₂=10.18 (10^-20cm²), Ω₄=1.96 (10^-20cm²), Ω₆=0.75 (10^-20cm²).For a-axis cut sample we have Ω₂=8.20 (10^-20cm²), Ω₄=2.47 (10^-20cm²), Ω₆=0.91 (10^-20cm²). The anisotropy of the optical absorption intensities of Tm³⁺:YVO₄ was theoretically analyzed in detail.

Crystal fields of Pr in LiYF4 under pressure

Fluorescence spectra of LiYF₄:Pr³⁺ have been measured between 12,000 and 22,000 cm⁻¹ under pressures up to 10 GPa. In total, 25 crystal field energy levels were obtained and used for the determination of free-ion and crystal field parameters under pressure. According to the nephelauxetic effect, the free-ion parameters decrease with increasing pressure. The relative decrease is larger for the Slater than for the spin-orbit coupling parameter. This behavior is consistent with former studies on Pr³⁺ in different crystals and can be explained by a special covalency model. According to an effective D_2d symmetry, five crystal field parameters B₀²(f,f), B₀⁴(f,f), B₄⁴(f,f), B₀⁶(f,f), and B₄⁶(f,f) are non-zero. The pressure-induced changes of these parameters have been determined up to the maximum pressure of 10 GPa. In order to improve the calculation of the crystal field levels, the configuration interactions with the 4f¹6p¹ configuration have been taken into account. The effect of these interactions are also analyzed under pressure and distinct improvements of the energy level calculations have been obtained.     

Proton Dynamics in Letovicite, (NH4)3H(SO4)2: A H and N NMR Spectroscopic Study

The improper ferroelastic phase letovicite (NH₄)₃H(SO₄)₂ has been studied by ¹H MAS NMR as well as by static ¹⁴N NMR experiments in the temperature range of 296–425 K. The ¹H MAS NMR resonance from ammonium protons can be well distinguished from that of acidic protons. A third resonance appears just below the phase transition temperature which is due to the acidic protons in the paraelastic phase. The lowering of the second moment M₂ for the ammonium protons takes place in the same temperature range as the formation of domain boundaries, while the signals of the acidic protons suffer a line narrowing in the area of T_c. The static ¹⁴N NMR spectra confirm the temperature of the motional changes of the ammonium tetrahedra. Two-dimensional ¹H NOESY spectra indicate a chemical exchange between ammonium protons and the acidic protons of the paraphase.     

Vibrational Spectra of 4-Benzoylpiridine and the 18O Substituted Derivative

Abstract

Infrared and Raman spectra of 4-benzoylpiridine (4BP) and its ¹⁸O substituted derivative have been recorded in the solid and in the molten state. Polarized Raman spectra in the molten state have also been measured. The assignment of the vibrational bands is performed on the basis of isotopic shifts, group vibrational concept and polarization features of the normal modes. The previous assignment of the in- and out-of-plane deformations of the carbonyl group and the fundamentals below 700 cm^?1 are questioned and corrected.     

Vibrational spectra of (NH4)3ZnCl5

IR and Raman spectra of (NH₄)₃ZnCl₅ have been recorded. The observed spectra have been analysed on the basis of the vibrations of ZnCl ₄ ²⁻ and NH ₄ ⁺ ions. The appearance of multiple Raman bands indicates the presence of two different types of ammonium ions. The effect of anisotropic crystalline field over the ZnCl₄ and NH₄ tetrahedra is also discussed. The assignment of internal modes has been verified by the potential energy distribution calculations.     

Synthesis and photoluminescence properties of Sm-doped CaWO4 nanoparticles

The Sm³⁺-doped CaWO₄ nanoparticles were synthesized by hydrothermal method. The room temperature photoluminescence (PL) spectra of Sm³⁺-doped CaWO₄ nanoparticles doped with different Sm³⁺ concentrations under 405 nm excitation have been investigated. The PL spectra showed four strong emission peaks at 460, 571, 609, and 653 nm. The first emission peak at 460 nm could be due to a structural defect of the lattice, an oxygen-deficient WO₃ complex. The other three emissions at 571, 609, and 653 nm were due to the f-f forbidden transitions of the 4f electrons of Sm³⁺, corresponding to ⁴G_5/2→⁶H_5/2 (571 nm), ⁶H_7/2 (609 nm), and ⁶H_9/2 (653 nm), respectively. In addition, the optimum Sm³⁺ concentration in CaWO₄ nanoparticles for optical emission was determined to be 1.0%. The Sm³⁺⁴G_5/2→⁶H_7/2 (609 nm) emission intensity of Sm³⁺-doped CaWO₄ nanoparticles significantly increased with the increase of Sm³⁺ concentration, and showed a maximum when Sm³⁺ doping content was 1.0%. If Sm³⁺ concentration continued to increase, namely more than 1.0%, the Sm³⁺⁴G_5/2→⁶H_7/2 emission intensity would decrease. The present materials might be a promising phosphor for white-light LED applications.     

Synthesis and characterization of Ca2Sn1-xCexO4 with blue luminescence originating from Ce^4＋ charge transfer transition

Ce^4＋-doped Ca2SnO4 with a one-dimensional structure, which emits bright blue light, is prepared by using a solid-state reaction method. The x-ray diffraction results show that the Ce^4＋ ions doped in Ca2SnO4 occupy the Sn^4＋ sites. The excitation and emission spectra of Ca2Sn1-xCexO4 appear to have broad bands with peaks at - 268nm and -442nm, respectively. A long excited-state lifetime （-83μs） for the emission from Ca2Sn1-xCexO4 suggests that the luminescence originates from a ligand-to-metal Ce^4＋ charge transfer （CT）. The luminescent properties of Ca2Snl_xCexO4 have been compared with those of Sr2CeO4, which is the only material reported so far to show Ce^4＋ CT luminescence. More interestingly, it is observed that the emission intensity of Ca2Sn1-xCexO4 with a small doping concentration （x - 0.03） is comparable to that of Sr2CeO4 in which the concentration of active centre is 100%.     

Heat-treatment-induced luminescence degradation in Tb-doped CePO4 nanorods

CePO₄:Tb nanorods were synthesized via a simple wet-chemical route. The as-synthesized CePO₄:Tb nanorods present high photoluminescence efficiency due to an efficient energy transfer form Ce³⁺ to Tb³⁺. However, heat treatment at 150 °C in air leads to a significant decrease of photoluminescence. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and excitation spectra revealed the oxidation of Ce³⁺ to Ce⁴⁺ in the heat-treatment process, which should be responsible for significant photoluminescence degradation due to the breakage of Ce³⁺→Tb³⁺ energy transfer. This conclusion is further supported by atmosphere and size effects of photoluminescence of CePO₄:Tb under the heat treatment.

Dynamic properties of P4O6S and P4O7: P spin–echo and P MAS–NMR investigations

The rotational dynamics of P₄O₆S and P₄O₇ in the solid state were studied by means of ³¹P NMR spectra of spinning and static powder samples in the temperature range of 153–295 K and 295–388 K, respectively. All spectra were simulated to confirm the type of the motion and to extract the time scales as a function of the temperature. Good agreement between experimental and theoretical data was obtained on the basis of a three-site jump model. For P₄O₆S, the activation energy and the pre-exponential factor derived from the lineshape simulations amount to 51(2) kJ/mol and 6(3)·10¹⁵ s⁻¹. For P₄O₇, the spectral analysis yields an activation energy of 67(1) kJ/mol and a pre-exponential factor of 6(2)·10¹⁴ s⁻¹. The dynamic behavior was checked independently by lineshape analyses under both MAS and static conditions. Activation energies are consistent within the errors for the lineshape analyses. Additionally, we have analyzed spin–lattice relaxation measurements, which show the correct trends for the activation energies.     

Assignment of the 1H and 13C Spectra of 5-Methylthio-4H-1-(p-R1-phenyl)-3a-(p-R2-phenyl)-3a,4-dihydro (1,2,4) oxadiazolo(4,5-a), 1,5-benzodiazepines using 2D NMR Spectroscopy.

The ¹H NMR spectra of the title benzodiazepines derivatives is highly congested because all the protons are in aromatic enviroment so many proton signals remain overlap even 300 MHz or higher fields. With this in mind, the assignment of the ¹H and ¹³C spectra of these compounds obtained using COSY, NOESY, HMQC and HMBC experiments is reported.     

Novel green-emitting Na2CaPO4F:Eu phosphors for near-ultraviolet white light-emitting diodes

In this study, green-emitting Na₂CaPO₄F:Eu²⁺ phosphors were synthesized by solid-state reactions. The excitation spectra of the phosphors showed a broad hump between 250 and 450 nm; the spectra match well with the near-ultraviolet (NUV) emission spectra of light-emitting diodes (LEDs). The emission spectrum showed an intense broad emission band centered at 506 nm. White LEDs were fabricated by integrating a 390 nm NUV chip comprising blue-emitting BaMgAl₁₀O₁₇:Eu²⁺, green-emitting Na₂CaPO₄F:0.02 Eu²⁺, and red-emitting CaAlSiN₃:Eu²⁺ phosphors into a single package; the white LEDs exhibited white light with a correlated color temperature of 5540 K, a color-rendering index of 90.75, and color coordinates (0.332, 0.365) close to those of ideal white light.     

Spectroscopic investigations and configuration-interaction-assisted crystal field analysis of Pr in YPO4 single crystal

An optical study of a Y_0.99Pr_0.01PO₄ single crystal is presented. Measurements of optical absorption, excitation, and emission by selective excitation into ¹D₂, ³P₀ and ³P₁, at different temperatures between 20 and 295 K, are described. A detailed account of the line assignments is given for absorption in the 4300-23 000 cm⁻¹ spectral range, and for emission in the 6400-23 000 cm⁻¹ range. The lifetimes of the emitting levels are determined. Vibronic sidebands accompanying absorption, emission and excitation spectra are reported. The decay processes of the ³P₁, ³P₀ and ¹D₂ levels are discussed. The aim of this study is a test of the configuration-interaction-assisted crystal field analysis as well as the accurate experimental determination of the energy level scheme. It was reported previously that the introduction of configuration interaction between the ground 4f² configuration with the excited 4f6p configuration always resulted in a decrease (≈50-60%) in the standard deviations between the observed and calculated energy levels. In the present work the 4f5d configuration is included as well. The crystal field is analysed in the theoretical D_2d site symmetry with and without configuration interaction. The results with 4f², 4f²+4f5d, 4f²+4f6p and 4f²+4f5d+4f6p are given. The calculation on the basis of the 315 (4f²+4f5d+4f6p) levels gives the best overall standard deviation lowering it by 75% with regard to the calculation on the 91 4f² levels only.     

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⁺.     

Phosphorescent and thermoluminescent properties of SrAl2O4:Eu,Dy phosphors prepared by solid state reaction method

Long persistent SrAl₂O₄:Eu²⁺ phosphors co-doped with Dy³⁺ were prepared by the solid state reaction method. The main diffraction peaks of the monoclinic structure of SrAl₂O₄ were observed in all the samples. The broad band emission spectra at 497 nm for SrAl₂O₄:Eu²⁺, Dy³⁺ were observed and the emission is attributed to the 4f⁶5d¹ to 4f⁷ transition of Eu²⁺ ions. The samples annealed at 1100–1200 °C showed similar broad TL glow curves centered at 120 °C. The similar TL glow curves suggest that the traps responsible for them are similar. The long afterglow displayed by the phosphors annealed at different temperatures, may be attributed to the Dy³⁺ ions acting as the hole trap levels, which play an important role in prolonging the duration of luminescence.     

Synthesis and characterization of core-shell structured SiO2@YVO4:Yb,Er microspheres

In this paper, the core-shell structured SiO₂@YVO₄:Yb³⁺,Er³⁺ microspheres have been successfully prepared via a facile sol-gel process followed by a heat treatment. X-ray diffraction, field emission scanning electron microscopy, energy disperse X-ray spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and photoluminescence spectra were used to characterize the samples. The results reveal that the SiO₂ spheres have been successfully coated by YVO₄:Yb³⁺,Er³⁺ phosphors to form core-shell structures and the size of obtained microspheres has a uniform distribution. Additionally, the samples exhibit bright green luminescence under the excitation of a 980 nm laser diode. The photoluminescence intensity increases with the number of coatings. These core-shell structured SiO₂@YVO₄:Yb³⁺,Er³⁺ microspheres may have great potential in the fields of infrared detection and display devices.     

Infrared-to-visible upconversion in Er and Er/Yb activated Sb2O4 nanopowders prepared by sol-gel route

We prepared Er³⁺ doped and Er³⁺/Yb³⁺ codoped Sb₂O₄ nanocrystals by the sol-gel method. The Raman, X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscope (TEM), and photoluminescence spectra of the samples were studied. The phonon energy of the Sb₂O₄ nanocrystals is very low (the maximum value being 461 cm⁻¹). The upconversion (UC) red emission of the Er³⁺/Yb³⁺ codoped sample is very strong at 975 nm laser diode excitation. The Sb₂O₄ nanocrystals will be a promising luminous material.     

Reinvestigation of the (4, 20) band of the O2 second negative system

High resolution absorption spectra of the (4, 20) band in the second negative system (A²Π_u–X²Π_g) of O₂⁺ cation were measured and analyzed in the range of 11 900–12 300 cm^–1 via optical heterodyne velocity modulation spectroscopy. Precise molecular constants of the levels involved were obtained by a nonlinear least-squares fitting procedure combining with our previous spectra of the (4, 19) and (6, 20) bands.
