Yb(NO3)3·3H2O与B15C5在乙醇中配合行为的研究

The solubilities of the ternary system,Yb(NO_3)_3·3H_2O-B15C5·C_2H_5OH, at 18 ℃ have been investigated by the modified semimicro method for study of phase equilibrium. The results indicated that there are two solubility curves for this ternary system: the long one corresponds to the solid phase of the complex (Yb(NO_3)_3·B15C5·3H_2O·2.5C_2H_5OH), and the short one to the solid phase of B15C5. The curve of refractive indexes for saturated solutions consists of two branches, which correspond with two branches with solubility curve. We have not found other complex species having different ratio, Yb/crown.The behavior of water for this system in equilibrium has been examined. The results are: the mole ratio, H_2O/Yb(NO_3)_3, no matter whether it is in liquid phase or solid phase, is alwaysl 3:1.The complex has been isolated from organic solvent, C_2H_5OH. The composition of this complex has been determined by chemical analysis and it is Yb(NO_3)_3·B15C5·3H_2O·0.65C_2H_5OH. The properties of this complex have been investigated by chemical analysis, infrafed spectra, DTG and TG.     

New BEDT-TTF/[Fe(C5O5)3]3- hybrid system: synthesis, crystal structure, and physical properties of a chirality-induced alpha phase and a novel magnetic molecular metal

The paramagnetic and chiral anion [Fe(C5O5)3]3- (C5O52-=croconate) has been combined with the organic donor BEDT-TTF (=ET=bis(ethylenedithio)tetrathiafulvalene) to synthesize a novel paramagnetic semiconductor with the first chirality-induced alpha phase, alpha-(BEDT-TTF)5[Fe(C5O5)3].5H2O (1), and one of the few known paramagnetic molecular metals, beta-(BEDT-TTF)5[Fe(C5O5)3].C6H5CN (2). Both compounds present layers of BEDT-TTF molecules, with the alpha or beta packing modes, alternating with layers containing the high-spin S=5/2 Fe(III) anions and solvent molecules. In the alpha phase, the alternation of the chiral [Fe(C5O5)3]3- anions along the direction perpendicular to the BEDT-TTF chains induces an alternation of the tilt angle of the BEDT-TTF molecules, giving rise to the observed alpha phase. The alpha phase presents a semiconductor behavior with a high room-temperature conductivity (6 S.cm-1) and an activation energy of 116 meV. The beta phase presents a metallic behavior down to ca. 120 K, where a charge localization takes place with a reentrance to the metallic state below ca. 20 K followed by a metal-semiconductor transition at ca. 10 K. The magnetic properties are dominated by the paramagnetic S=5/2 [Fe(C5O5)3]3- anion with an extra Pauli-type paramagnetism in the metallic beta phase. The ESR spectra confirm the presence of the high-spin Fe(III)-containing anion and show a progressive localization in the organic sublattice along with an antiferromagnetic coupling below ca. 120 K that, in the metallic beta phase, could be at the origin of the transition from the metallic to the activated conductivity regime. The correlation between crystal structure and conductivity behavior has been studied by means of tight-binding band structure calculations which provide a rationalization of the charge distribution and conductivity results.

Theoretical studies on tautomerism of tetrazole derivatives by polarisable continuum method (PCM)

Computational calculations at B3LYP/6-31++G(d,p) level were employed in the study of the predominant tautomeric forms of 1-H and 2-H tetrazole derivatives (5-NO₂, 5-CF₃, 5-F, 5-H, 5-NH₂, 5-OH, 5-CH₃) in the gas phase and solution using PCM model. For electron withdrawing derivatives in the gas phase and solution 2-H forms are more stable and dominant form. For electron releasing groups in the gas phase and solution with low dielectric constants the 2-H form is more stable but in solvents with high dielectric constants 1-H isomer is dominant form. In addition variation of dipole moments and charges on atoms in the solvents are studied.     

Synthesis, structure and bonding of the hypoelectronic cluster compound Sr3Tl5

The Sr3Tl5 phase was prepared by high temperature synthesis techniques through reaction of the high purity elements in the welded Nb tubes.The structure established through X-ray structural analysis shows the compound is a good hypoelectronic trielide example of the Pu3Pd5 structural type in which skeletal electron count is lower than in a traditional Zintl phase(Cmcm,Z = 4;a = 10.604(2) ,b = 8.675(2) ,and c = 10.985(2) ;V = 1010.5(3) 3).The strontium size and the compound’s polarity appear responsible for this thallium phase crystallization in the Pu3Pd5 family type rather than the isoelectronic Sr3In5 version.A first-principle electronic structure calculation(LMTO) demonstrates that the strontium atoms participate substantially in Sr-Tl bonding in the structure.

A study of the structural effects on the liquid-crystalline properties of ionic perylenebis(dicarboximide)s using UV-Vis spectroscopy, polarized light microscopy, and NMR spectroscopy

Ionic perylenebis(dicarboximide)s 1-5 were synthesized. The aggregation and liquid-crystalline properties of these compounds in aqueous solutions were investigated. In the concentration range of approximately 5 x 10-7-5 x 10-4 M, the structures of the ammonium side chains and counterions did not have a significant effect on the electronic transition properties and H-aggregate formation of these compounds. However, the liquid-crystalline phase properties varied with the structure of the side chains and the counterions. Ionic perylenebis(dicarboximide)s 1, 3, and 5 with chloride ions formed nematic (N) phases from the isotropic (I) phase, while 2 and 4 with p-methylbenzenesulfonate ions formed chromonic ribbons from the I phase. Studies by polarized light microscopy and 2H NMR spectroscopy indicated that the N phase of 5 (with gem dimethyl groups) formed at higher concentrations than those observed for 1 and 3 at the same temperature. Furthermore, the N phase of 5 was less ordered compared to those of 1 and 3 at a similar concentration and temperature, presumably due to the bulkiness of the side chains of 5 that hindered the stacking and pi-interactions of the aromatic rings.     

Phase transition studies in symmetric dimeric liquid crystals

As a part of the systematic studies on symmetric liquid crystal dimer homologous series, α,ω-bis-(4-n-alkylaniline benzylidene-4′-oxy) alkanes, (referred to as m.OnO.m with m = 3, 4, and 5; and n = 8, 9, and 10), we present in this article the nature of phase transitions across isotropic–nematic and nematic–smectic-A (N–SmA) phases exhibited by the just mentioned compounds. The methods employed are differential scanning calorimetry and dilatometry. The compounds studied were 3.O8O.3, 4.O8O.4, and 5.O8O.5; and 3.O9.03, 5.O9O.5, 3.O10O.3, 4.O10O.4, and 5.O10O.5. Different from the case of their corresponding monomers, all these compounds exhibit a nematic phase only with the exception of 5.O8O.5 which exhibits a SA phase in addition to the nematic phase. The phase transitions viz., isotropic–nematic transitions studied in all these compounds were confirmed to be of first-order nature, whereas the N–SmA transition exhibited by the compound 5.O8O.5 only was found to be of second-order nature. We also report in this article the calculated density jumps, thermal expansion coefficient maxima, and pressure dependence of transition temperatures which are analyzed in the light of the available literature data.

In-situ monitoring of a film preparation process for hydroxypropyl cellulose cast from isotropic aqueous solution using microdielectrometry

Solid cast films with polydomain textures were prepared on a glass substrate with transparent interdigitated electrodes from an isotropic aqueous solution of hydroxypropyl cellulose via its liquid crystalline phase under the sinusoidal electric field with small amplitude and frequency of 0.05 V µm^-1 and 10⁵ Hz, respectively. The process was monitored using microdielectrometry as well as polarised optical microscopy. The apparent dielectric constant ε_r' and loss factor ε_r' sensitively changed with time depending on the process conditions. On the other hand, the logarithmic relation between ε_r' and ε_r' showed a single curve, when they were normalised by an effective portion of the electrostatic energy density estimated using each solid-film thickness. The conversion to the solid film was estimated during the process based on the concentration dependences of ε_r' and ε_r'. Characteristic times were reported for the onset of the biphasic phase, fully developed cholesteric phase and termination of the process.

Semiconductor-metal transition in Ti3O5

Ti₃O₅ shows a first-order phase transition from the monoclinic structure to the pseudobrookite structure at 448°K, at which temperature a magnetic susceptibility anomaly has been reported earlier in the literature. There is an electrical conductivity discontinuity accompanying the phase transition. Incorporation of Fe stabilizes the high-temperature phase of Ti₃O₅; while with 2% Fe the transition temperature and enthalpy change are lowered, with 5% Fe there is no transition. Mössbauer spectra of 2% Fe-doped Ti₃O₅ are similar below and above the transition temperature and show no evidence for magnetic ordering in the low-temperature phase. These results are compared to the VO₂ transition.     

Phase-controlled growth of metastable Fe5Si3 nanowires by a vapor transport method

We report the synthesis of single-crystalline nanowires (NWs) of metastable Fe5Si3 phase via an iodide vapor transport method. Free-standing Fe5Si3 NWs are grown on a sapphire substrate placed on a Si wafer without the use of any catalyst. The typical size of the Fe5Si3 nanowires is 5-15 microm in length and 100-300 nm in diameter. Synthesis of the metastable phase is induced by composition-dependent nucleation from the gas-phase reaction. Depending on the concentration ratio of FeI2(g) to SiI4(g), different phases of iron silicides are formed. The growth of nanowires is facilitated by the initial nucleation of silicide particles on the substrate and further self-seeded growth of the NWs. The present work not only provides a method for the synthesis of metastable Fe5Si3 nanowires but also suggests that the phase controlled synthesis can be further optimized to produce other metal-rich silicide nanostructures for future spintronic devices.     

The effect of biasing electric field on the soft mode in the vicinity of the ferroelectric phase transition in liquid crystals

The complex permittivity of a room-temperature ferroelectric liquid crystal 4-n-octyloxy benzoic acid 4'-[(2-methylbutyloxy)carbonyl]phenyl ester, has been measured in the vicinity of the phase transition in the frequency range 40 Hz-300 kHz. In the para-electric phase the contribution ε_s of the soft mode to the permittivity and the soft-mode relaxation frequency f_s satisfy the Curie-Weiss law. Under a biasing field E, the helicoidal structure is unwound, and ε_s and f_s can then be measured even in the ferroelectric phase. On the other hand, the phase transition is smeared under the influence of E. This smearing results in deviations from the Curie-Weiss law for both ε_s and f_s in the vicinity of the transition. On increasing E, the maximum of the permittivity, ε_max, is lowered and shifted to higher temperatures. Both the shift and ε^-1_max are proportional to E^2/3. From experimentally found dependences, some constants in the free energy are determined.

Phase polymorphism by mixing of poly(oxyethylene)-poly(dimethylsiloxane) copolymer and nonionic surfactant in water

The phase behavior of the water/poly(oxyethylene)-poly(dimethylsiloxane) copolymer (Si25C3EO51.6)/pentaoxyethylene dodecyl ether (C12EO5) ternary system has been studied. Both the silicone copolymer and the surfactant have equal volumes of hydrophilic and lipophilic parts; i.e., these are balanced amphiphiles. Although only a lamellar phase is observed in water-Si25C3EO51.6 and water-C12EO5 binary systems, a variety of liquid crystalline phases, including normal micellar cubic (I1), hexagonal (H1), bicontinuous cubic (V1), lamellar (L(alpha)), reverse bicontinuous cubic (V2), and reverse hexagonal (H2), are observed in the copolymer-rich region of the ternary phase diagram. The small C12EO5 molecules dissolve at the hydrophobic interface in the thick bilayer of the Si25C3EO51.6 L(alpha) phase occupying a large area of the total interface of the aggregates and modulate the curvature of the aggregates. Hence a variety of self-assembled structures are observed. In contrast, Si25C3EO51.6 is not dissolved in the thin bilayer of the C12EO5 lamellar phase (L'(alpha)). Hence, the C12EO5 L'(alpha) phase coexists with copolymer-rich L(alpha) and H2 phases. Consequently, small surfactant molecules are dissolved in a large silicone copolymer aggregate to induce a change in layer curvature, but a large copolymer molecule is hard to incorporate with surfactant aggregates.     

Preparation of the monomers of gingerols and 6-shogaol by flash high speed counter-current chromatography

The flash high speed counter-current chromatographic (FHSCCC) separation of gingerols and 6-shogaol was performed on a HSCCC instrument equipped with a 1200-ml column (5 mm tubing i.d.) at a flow rate of 25 ml/min. The performance met the FHSCCC feature that the flow rate of mobile phase (ml) is equal to or greater than the square of the diameter of the column tubing (mm). The separation employed the upper phase of stationary phase of the n-hexane-ethyl acetate-methanol-water (3:2:2:3, v/v) as the stationary phase. A stepwise elution was performed by eluting with the lower phase of n-hexane-ethyl acetate-methanol-water (3:2:2:3, v/v) for first 90 min and the lower phase of the n-hexane-ethyl acetate-methanol-water (3:2:6:5, v/v) for the second 90 min. In each separation 5 g of the ethyl acetate extract of rhizomes of ginger was loaded, yielding 1.96 g of 6-gingerol (98.3%), 0.33 g of 8-gingerol (97.8%), 0.64 g of 6-shogaol (98.8%) and 0.57 g of 10-gingerol (98.2%). The separation can be expected to scale up to industrial separation.     

Phase behaviour of the discotic mesogen 5,10,15,20-tetrakis (4-n-dodecylphenyl)porphyrin under pressure

The phase behaviour of the discotic mesogen 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(4-n -dodecylphenyl)porphyrin (C12TPP) was investigated under hydrostatic pressures up to 300MPa by high pressure DTA and wide angle X-ray diffraction methods. The typical enantiotropic phase transitions of C12TPP, low- to high-temperature crystal (Cr2-Cr1), Cr1-discotic lamellar phase (DL), and DL-isotropic liquid (I) are observed at pressures up to 10MPa. Application of hydrostatic pressure to the sample generates a pressure-induced crystal polymorph (Cr3) between the Cr2 and Cr1 phases, and the phase transitions Cr2-Cr3-Cr1-DL-I occur reversibly in the pressure region between 10 and 180MPa. On heating at higher pressures above 180MPa, the fourth crystal polymorph (Cr4) is formed between the Cr2 and Cr3 phases at lower temperatures, and at the same time the fifth crystal polymorph (Cr5) appears abruptly between the Cr1 and DL phases at high temperatures. The Cr2-Cr4-Cr3-C1-(Cr5)-DL-I transition processes were observed at 180 200MPa. Further increasing the pressure above 270MPa induces entirely different thermal behaviour: only two peaks for the pressure-induced transition between the sixth and fifth polymorphs (Cr6-Cr5) and the Cr5-I transitions are detected at low and high temperatures on heating, while both the DTA and WAXD experiments on cooling show the formation of the DL phase as a monotropic phase between the I and Cr5 phases, indicating the I DL Cr5 Cr6 process. The thermal behaviour was ambiguous and complex in the pressure region between 200 and 260MPa because the peaks for the intermediate crystal transitions were too small to detect with confidence. The two different sequences of the Cr2-Cr4-Cr3-Cr1-DL-I and Cr6-Cr5-(DL)-I processes seems to occur competitively. The T vs. P phase diagram of a sample cooled at 300MPa was studied to determine the triple point of the DL phase and to investigate the phase stability of the pressure-induced crystal polymorphs. The Cr6-Cr5-I transition process was observed on heating at 200 and 300MPa, while the Cr6-Cr5-DL-I process was detected at lower pressures below 100MPa. Since the Cr5-DL transition temperature changes linearly with a slope dT/dP 40 degrees C/100 MPa, while the DL-I transition temperature changes slightly (dT/dP 5.5 degrees C/100MPa), the DL phase forms a triangle in the T vs. P diagram. The triple point of the DL phase was found to be 240.8MPa and 168.8 C. The Cr6 polymorph reorganized to the stable Cr2 form under atmospheric pressure on annealing at room temperature overnight.     

Phase behaviour of the discotic mesogen 5,10,15,20-tetrakis (4-n-dodecylphenyl)porphyrin under pressure

The phase behaviour of the discotic mesogen 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(4-n -dodecylphenyl)porphyrin (C12TPP) was investigated under hydrostatic pressures up to 300MPa by high pressure DTA and wide angle X-ray diffraction methods.
