Spectrophotometric determination of fluoride in fluoride-bearing minerals after decomposition by fusion with sodium hydroxide

The decomposition of highly insoluble minerals (fluorspar and cryolite) by fusion with molten alkali-metal hydroxides is studied. The introduction of additives such as aluminium compounds or sodium peroxide to obtain total liberation of fluoride from calcium fluoride samples, is tested. The fusion is done in a silver crucible with a Bunsen burner. The cooled melt is easily soluble, giving solutions suitable for spectrophotometric fluoride determination by the Zr(IV)-fluoride-Erichrome Cyanine R method.     

The Analysis of Fluoride in the Acetic Acid Leach Solution of Fluorspar with an Ion-Selective Electrode

Abstract

An analytical procedure for the determination of fluoride ion left in the acetic acid leach solution of the U. S. Customs method for fluorspar is presented. The technique described employs an Orion fluoride ion-selective electrode. A semilogarithmic plot of fluoride ion concentration versus millivolt response yields a linear calibration curve. The new procedure s shown to compare favorably with the Customs method in economy analysis time, accuracy and precision.     

Improved manufacture of AlF3 FROM H2SiF6

Experience gathered in aluminum fluoride production during nearly ten years and concurrent development work have resulted in an improved process technology amenable to a reliable large scale production.The recovery of fluoride values - as aluminum fluoride or cryolite - provides phosphate plants with marketable products and simultaneously alleviates the disposal of a hazardous waste product. Within the next years new plants featuring optimized processing conditions will go on stream.Within the framework of favorable conditions provided by the phosphate plant (e.g. amount and quality of acid, reuse of side products), process parameters (e.g. reaction, filtration, crystallization), equipment design (e.g. filters, vessels, dryer, calciner) and optimization of process stages were found to be decisive in obtaining reliably a good product at high yields.     

A method for the simultaneous detection of hydrogen fluoride and fluorine

A relatively simple and rapid method for detecting hydrogen fluoride and elemental fluorine is described. A solution containing sodium bicarbonate and potassium bromide is treated with the gas. Hydrogen fluoride immediately liberates carbon dioxide from the bicarbonate; elemental fluorine immediately colours the solution and then causes the evolution of oxygen, hydrogen peroxide and hydrogen fluoride. A mixture of fluorine and hydrogen fluoride simultaneously colours the solution and evolves carbon dioxide.     

A ladderlike chain aluminum fluoride ([Al2F8]2-)n with edge-sharing AlF6 octahedra

A new aluminum fluoride, Al(2)F(8).2NC(5)H(6).C(6)H(3)(CO(2)H)(3), was synthesized under mild hydrothermal conditions (200 degrees C, 3 days) in the presence of 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid (btc) in pyridine/HF (pyr/HF) solvent. Its structure is characterized with single-crystal XRD analysis and high-resolution solid-state NMR. The inorganic framework consists of the corner- and edge-shared connections of AlF(6) octahedra. They are linked via a common edge and form a bioctahedral motif which is trans-connected through the corner-shared fluorine. It results in the formation of an original infinite double file of AlF(6) octahedra running along the a axis. A high-power decoupled MAS (27)Al{(19)F} Hahn echo NMR spectrum allowed us to distinguish the two crystallographic hexacoordinated Al sites. Four unresolved (19)F NMR signals are observed in the MAS spectra to account for the eight crystallographic fluorine atoms. Half of the terminal fluorine sites interact via strong hydrogen bonds with the ammonium groups of the pyridine moieties. The resulting mixed pyridine-fluoroaluminate chains are intercalated by the btc molecules which are hydrogen-bonded to the remaining free terminal fluoride anions through the protonated carboxylic acid function. The (1)H nuclei of both organic molecules are observed in the protonated form.     

Corrosion of equipment and its protection at producing and technical application of organofluorine products

Extension of the nomenclature of fluorine-containing products, and modernization of the methods for their synthesis (liquid-phase and gas-phase fluorination of the feedstock with hydrogen fluoride, electrochemical fluorination in anhydrous hydrogen fluoride, direct fluorination with gaseous fluorine and with the use of metals carrying fluorine, etc.) require extension of research on the corrosion safety of equipment at the implementation of new technologies. Therefore, the Laboratory of Corrosion is systematically involved in the work on improving the technology of producing basic fluorinating agents, elemental fluorine and hydrogen fluoride, that are highly aggressive towards structural materials.     

Direct fluorination of aryl oxygen compounds

A study has been made of the reaction of aryl oxygen compounds with elemental fluorine in hydrogen fluoride and acetonitrile. Hydrogen fluoride acted as a good solvent in the reaction of salicylic acid, salicylaldehyde and phenyl salicylate. Salicylalcohol gave a mixture of fluorination and oxidation products. Diphenyl derivatives were also fluorinated and gave mainly monofluoro compounds.     

Reducing nuclear danger through intergovernmental technical exchanges on nuclear materials safety management

The United States (U.S.) and Russia are dismantling nuclear weapons and generating hundreds of tons of excess plutonium and high-enriched uranium fissile nuclear materials that require disposition. The U.S. Department of Energy and the Ministry of the Russian Federation for Atomic Energy (Minatom) organizations are planning and implementing safe, secure storage and disposition operations for these materials in numerous facilities. This provides a new opportunity for technical exchanges between Russian and U.S. scientists that can establish an improved and sustained common safety culture for handling these materials. An initiative that develops and uses personal relationships and joint projects among Russian and U.S. participants involved in nuclear materials safety management contributes to improving nuclear materials nonproliferation and to making a safer world. Technical exchanges and workshops are being used to systematically identify opportunities in the nuclear materials facilities to improve and ensure the safety of workers, the public, and the environment.     

Fluorine functionalized compounds of group 13 elements

The review gives a short survey of some developments in the synthetic chemistry of organoaluminum fluorides. Into the focus is brought the Janus-faced Lewis base-Lewis acid Al compound, group 13 difluorodiorganometalates, fluorine functionalized carbaalane derivatives, fluorination of aluminum imide clusters, diamidoaluminum fluoride, and some group 13 β-diketiminate mono- and difluorides.     

(Pentafluorophenyl)sulfur fluorides, 19F NMR

The low-temperature ¹⁹F NMR spectra of (pentafluorophenyl)sulfur trifluoride are explained by the trigonal bipyramid structure ( 1a ) with the pentafluorophenyl ring in the basal plane and a relatively high barrier to rotation about the C? S bond. In the presence of a hydrogen fluoride scavenger, there is a high barrier to intramolecular rearrangement of the sulfur fluorines about the sulfur atom. The single basal fluorine couples strongly with one ortho fluorine and weakly with the other, but the two apical fluorines couple equally with both ortho fluorines. A six-bond coupling between S? F and p? F is found in (pentafluorophenyl)sulfur trifluoride and in (pentafluorophenyl)-sulfinyl fluoride, but not in (pentafluorophenyl)sulfonyl fluoride.     

Selective gas-chromatographic detection using an ion-selective electrode-II Selective detection of fluorine compounds

Components in samples are separated on a gas chromatography column using hydrogen as carrier gas. The individual components from the column are passed through a platinum tube heated at 1000 degrees , where they undergo hydrogenolysis, and fluorine compounds are converted into hydrogen fluoride. The hydrogen fluoride is dissolved in a slow stream of an absorption solution, and the fluoride ion concentration in the resulting solution is monitored in a flow-cell with a fluoride ion electrode. The potentiometric output of the cell is converted into a signal, which is proportional to the concentration of fluoride ion, by an antilogarithmic converter, and recorded. The response of the detector to fluorine compounds was about 10,000 times that to an equal quantity of other organic compounds, and 5 x 10(-11) mole of fluorobenzene could be detected.     

Power-efficient Mode of the Electrolytic Fluorine Production Process Control

Generalized functionality of the fluorine production manufacturing efficiency developed for determination of optimum values of temperature and hydrogen fluoride concentration according to the method of multiparametric optimization allowed calculating the optimum process performance and develop the optimum fluorine production process control by maintaining electrolytic solution temperature and hydrogen fluoride concentration in the electrolyte depending on the value of the current load in the electrolyzer.     

Structural and dynamical properties of hydrogen fluoride in aqueous solution: an ab initio quantum mechanical charge field molecular dynamics simulation

The novel ab initio quantum mechanical charge field (QMCF) molecular dynamics simulation at the Hartree-Fock level has been employed to investigate hydration structure and dynamics of hydrogen fluoride in aqueous solution. The average H-F bond length of 0.93 A obtained from the QMCF MD simulation is in good agreement with the experimental data. The HHF...Ow distance of 1.62 A was evaluated for the first hydration shell, and 2.00 A was observed for the FHF...Hw distance. The stability of hydrogen bonding is more pronounced in the hydrogen site of hydrogen fluoride, with a single water molecule in this part of the first hydration shell. A wide range of coordination numbers between 3 and 9 with an average value of 5.6 was obtained for the fluorine site. The force constants of 819.1 and 5.9 N/m were obtained for the HHF-FHF and HHF...Ow interactions, respectively, proving the stability of the nondissociated form of hydrogen fluoride in aqueous solution. The mean residence times of 2.1 and 2.5 ps were determined for ligand exchange processes in the neighborhood of fluorine and hydrogen atoms of hydrogen fluoride, respectively, indicating a weak structure-making effect of hydrogen fluoride in water. The corresponding H-bond lifetimes attribute this effect to the H atom site of HF.     

Elemental fluorine. Part 24.[1]: Fluorination of ethers by fluorine and Selectfluor

Reactions of dialkyl ethers with either fluorine or Selectfluor™ led to the formation of unusual difluorinated polyether products in modest yields. A mechanism involving initial fluorination of the site adjacent to ether oxygen followed by elimination of hydrogen fluoride, reaction of the generated enol system with a further equivalent of fluorinating agent giving an oxonium system which reacts with water during aqueous work-up to lead eventually to the products observed, is suggested.

Elimination of interference of aluminum ion by a novel resin prepared from desferrioxamine and polyallylamine beads and its application to the determination of fluoride ion

A novel functional resin for the selective adsorption of aluminum was prepared from desferrioxamine(DF) and polyallylamine(PAA) resin. The primary amino group of DF was conjugated with PAA by glutaraldehyde(GA). The resin was found to be effective for the elimination of interference caused by aluminum ion on the determination of fluoride ion. A new determination system for low levels of fluoride ion in the presence of aluminum ion was developed by the use of DF-PAA resin combined with anion exchange resin loaded with alizarin fluorine blue sulfonate; 3-[NN-di(carboxymethyl)aminomethyl)-1,2-dihydroxyanthraquinone-5-sulfonate (AFBS) - lanthanum complex, which was a functional resin for selective collection of fluoride ion.     

Quantum-chemical study of interaction of dipyrrolylmethenes with boron trifluoride and other lewis acids

The geometric parameters and energies of the products of donor-acceptor interaction of dipyrrolylmethenes with BF₃ and other inorganic Lewis acids were calculated by quantum-chemical methods. The bond nature and the energies of formation of the donor-acceptor complexes under consideration were analyzed. It was shown that the complexes with p-element fluorides are noticeably stabilized by hydrogen bonds involving the hydrogen atom of the NH group of dipyrrolylmethene and the nearest fluorine atom of a Lewis acid. Hydrogen bonding promotes further elimination of HF in the synthesis of boron fluoride complexes of dipyrrolylmethenes. The energy profile was calculated for the reaction of formation of the boron fluoride complex with dipyrrolylmethene through the intermediate donor-acceptor complex.     

Preferential binding of fluorine to aluminum in high peralkaline aluminosilicate glasses

For two series of fluoride-containing aluminosilicate glasses of high peralkaline type, we apply 27Al, 19F, 29Si, and 23Na NMR spectroscopy to understand the structural changes introduced by the addition of alkali fluorides. Adding fluoride in concentrations above the solubility limit causes crystallization of different phases in sodium and potassium glasses despite identical composition. However, the NMR spectra reveal that the structural evolution of the precrystallized states is similar in both series. In particular, fluorine coordinates exclusively to alkaline cations and aluminum. No indication of direct bonding with silicon was found from 19F --> 29Si cross-polarization experiments. In contrast to other glass systems, double resonance experiments in these peralkaline systems show that halide addition produces at most a minor fraction of tetrahedral aluminum containing fluorine in its coordination sphere. Instead, the fluorine addition prior to crystallization converts up to about 20% of the initial tetrahedral aluminum (1 mol % in absolute units) to 5- and 6-fold coordinated aluminum. A minor portion of five-coordinated aluminum groups is considered as the intermediate to the growing fraction of octahedral aluminum in the silicate matrix. The initialization of the crystallization process is correlated with the saturation of the silicate matrix by octahedral aluminum clusters segregating out under further doping by fluoride. It is suggested that the formation of the nonframework Al-F bonds is responsible for structural relaxation, reflected by the reduction of the glass transition temperature.
