X-ray study of Hg2Cl2Br2 and HgCl2HgBr2 reactions in solid state

The reactions (I) Hg₂Cl₂(s) + Br₂(g) and (II) HgCl₂(s) + HgBr₂(s) have been investigated by an X-ray method. Both the reactions yield two forms of the mixed halide HgClBr, designated as α-HgClBr and β-HgClBr. The cell parameters of the two are as follows:α-HgClBr: $\text{a = 6.196}\text{A}\text{?}$, $\text{b = 13.12}\text{A}\text{?}$, $\text{c = 4.37}\text{A}\text{?}$, z = 4, ? = 5.91 g/cm³. The powder pattern and cell parameters are similar to that of HgCl₂. Therefore it is probable that the chlorine atoms, in the linear halogenHghalogen molecules of HgCl₂ structure have been replaced by bromines, and since the radius of the bromine atom is larger than that of chlorine, the lattice is larger in this case.β-HgClBr: $\text{a = 6.78}\text{A}\text{?}$, $\text{b = 13.175}\text{A}\text{?}$, $\text{c = 4.17}\text{A}\text{?}$, z = 4, ? = 5.40. These parameters are the same as those reported in the literature for β-Hg(ClBr)₂, and its X-ray powder pattern is similar to HgCl₂. Therefore this phase also has linear halogenHghalogen molecules but the distribution of Cl and Br atoms is perhaps random.Heating the products (I) and (II) up to the melting point increases the amount of α phase and decreases the β phase, whereas crystallization increases the β phase. DTA study has supported the X-ray findings.     

Photoionization of the Ar2 dimer

The relative photoionization cross section for Ar₂ was measured in the wavelength region 820–860 Å. The spectrum shows detailed autoionization structure throughout this region with no contribution from direct ionization. The appearance potential of Ar⁺₂ corresponds to 856.5 ± 1.5 Å.     

The mercury chromates Hg6Cr2O9 and Hg6Cr2O10—Preparation and crystal structures, and thermal behaviour of Hg6Cr2O9

The basic mercury(I) chromate(VI), Hg₆Cr₂O₉ (=2Hg₂CrO₄·Hg₂O), has been obtained under hydrothermal conditions (200 °C, 5 days) in the form of orange needles as a by-product from reacting elemental mercury and K₂Cr₂O₇. Hydrothermal treatment of microcrystalline Hg₆Cr₂O₉ in demineralised water at 200 °C for 3 days led to crystal growth of red crystals of the basic mercury(I, II) chromate(VI), Hg₆Cr₂O₁₀ (=2Hg₂CrO₄·2HgO). The crystal structures were solved and refined from single crystal X-ray data sets. Hg₆Cr₂O₉: space group P2₁2₁2₁, Z=4, a=7.3573(12), b=8.0336(13), , 3492 structure factors, 109 parameters, R[F²>2σ(F²)]=0.0371, wR(F² all)=0.0517; Hg₆Cr₂O₁₀: space group Pca2₁, Z=4, a=11.4745(15), b=9.4359(12), , 3249 structure factors, 114 parameters, R[F²>2σ(F²)]=0.0398, wR(F² all)=0.0625. Both crystal structures are made up of an intricate mercury-oxygen network, subdivided into single building blocks [O-Hg-Hg-O] for the mercurous compound, and [O-Hg-Hg-O] and [O-Hg-O] for the mixed-valent compound. Hg₆Cr₂O₉ contains three different Hg₂²⁺ dumbbells, whereas Hg₆Cr₂O₁₀ contains two different Hg₂²⁺ dumbbells and two Hg²⁺ cations. The Hg^I-Hg^I distances are characteristic and range between 2.5031(15) and 2.5286(9) Å. All Hg₂²⁺ groups exhibit an unsymmetrical oxygen environment. The oxygen coordination of the Hg²⁺ cations is nearly linear with two tightly bonded O atoms at distances around 2.07 Å. For both structures, the chromate(VI) anions reside in the vacancies of the Hg-O network and deviate only slightly from the ideal tetrahedral geometry with average Cr-O distances of ca. 1.66 Å. Upon heating at temperatures above 385 °C, Hg₆Cr₂O₉ decomposes in a four-step mechanism with Cr₂O₃ as the end-product at temperatures above 620 °C.     

Syntheses, structures, and magnetic and optical properties of the compounds [Hg3Te2][UCl6] and [Hg4As2][UCl6]

Two new quaternary salts, [Hg₃Te₂][UCl₆] and [Hg₄As₂][UCl₆], have been synthesized and their structures determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. [Hg₃Te₂][UCl₆] is the product of a reaction involving UCl₄, HgCl₂, and HgTe at 873 K. The compound crystallizes in space group P2₁/c of the monoclinic system. [Hg₄As₂][UCl₆] results from the reaction of U, Hg₂Cl₂, and As at 788 K. It crystallizes in space group Pbca of the orthorhombic system. [Hg₃Te₂][UCl₆] has a two-dimensional framework of layers, whereas [Hg₄As₂][UCl₆] has a three-dimensional framework of layers interconnected by Hg atoms linearly bonded to As atoms. Both framework structures contain discrete [UCl₆]²⁻ anions between the layers. [Hg₃Te₂][UCl₆] exhibits temperature-independent paramagnetism. The optical absorption spectra of these compounds display f-f transitions.

The crystal structure of Hg2FeF5(OH)2 · H2O

The new compound Hg₂FeF₅(OH)₂ · H₂O was prepared by evaporation of an aqueous 40% HF solution containing HgO and FeF₃ in the stoichiometric ratio. The material is orthorhombic, space group Cmmm, with a = 7.505(1) Å, b = 11.823(3) Å, c = 3.941(2)Å, and Z = 2. The crystal structure was determined from single crystal intensity data obtained by means of an automated four-circle diffractometer and refined to the conventional values R = 0.0621 and R_w = 0.0566 for 451 observed reflections. The structure is characterized by infinite straight chains of FeF₆ octahedra sharing trans F atoms in the direction [001]. These chains are linked by rutile-type chains of HgF₄(OH)₂ octahedra also running along [001]. Water molecules are statistically distributed on half of the 4i positions; they are off-centered in the channels parallel to [001] allowing O---H ··· F bonding. The structure is compared to that of HgFeF₅ · 2H₂O and to that of the hexagonal tungsten bronze.     

The origin of the 550 nm emission band of Hg2

Evidence is presented to show that the structured emission band of Hg₂ near 550 nm arises from the collision- induced transition ³2_u → ³O_u.     

Photoionization of small silicon clusters: ionization potentials for Si2 to Si40

Photoionization thresholds of Si _n (n=2–40) were examined by vacuum UV radiation (5.7–8.5 eV) generated by stimulated Raman scattering of narrow-bandwidth 193-nm radiation in high pressure hydrogen and deuterium gases. A strong threshold energy dependence on cluster size is observed, featuring major maxima at 10 and 20. The magic behavior atn=10 is consistent with the results of the photofragmentation and CID experiments reported previously.     

[Hg5O2(OH)4][(UO2)2(AsO4)2]: A complex mercury(II) uranyl arsenate

Under mild hydrothermal conditions UO₂(NO₃)₂·6H₂O, Hg₂(NO₃)₂·2H₂O, and Na₂HAsO₄·7H₂O react to form [Hg₅O₂(OH)₄][(UO₂)₂(AsO₄)₂] (HgUAs-1). Single crystal X-ray diffraction experiments reveal that HgUAs-1 possesses a pseudo-layered structure consisting of two types of layers: and . The layers are complex, and contain three crystallographically unique Hg centers. The coordination environments and bond-valence sum calculations indicate that the Hg centers are divalent. The layers belong to the Johannite topological family. The and layers are linked to each other through μ₂-O bridges that include Hg?O=U=O interactions.

A theoretical study of the reaction of SiH2 with C2H2 and C2D2

Potential energy surfaces of the reaction of SiH₂ and C₂H₂ (and C₂D₂) have been calculated by means of ab initio molecular orbital theory at the QCISD/6-311G++(2df, 2p)//MP2/6-31G(d, p) level with corrections for the triple excitations to the QCISD energies. The barrier heights for the two reaction channels of the adduct, thus calculated, were further utilized for the dynamical calculation of the rate constants in the framework of quantum statistical Rice-Ramsperger-Kassel theory. Contributions of the rate constants of the various pathways to the total rate constant (K_T) for the disappearance of the reactants are critically examined and compared with experiment. The pressure dependence of K_T(C₂H₂) is primarily due to the formation of silirene. K_T(C₂D₂) is consistently higher than K_T(C₂H₂). The standard heat of formation of silirene is predicted to be 72.1 ± 3 kcal/mol. Rearrangement of silirene to vinylsilylene requires an activation energy smaller than that to silylacetylene.     

Origin of the 4400A˚and 5300A˚bands of Hg2

Previously reported spectral data from e-beam excited Hg vapor contains bands at 4400A?and 5300A?whereas other excitation methods produce a band centered at 5100A?. In this paper the probable origin of the anomalous e-beam produced spectrum is shown to be the vibrational non-equilibrium of the Hg₂ (A³O_u^?) state. Time resolved spectra are presented.

Synthesis, crystal and band structures, and properties of a new supramolecular complex (Hg2As)2(CdI4)

A new quaternary supramolecular complex (Hg₂As)₂ (CdI₄) (1) has been prepared by the solid-state reaction and structurally characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Compound 1 crystallizes in the space group P2₁ of the monoclinic system with two formula units in a cell: a=7.945(4), b=12.934(6), c=8.094(4) Å, β=116.898°(1), V=741.7(6) Å³. The structure of 1 is characterized by a tridymite-like three-dimensional cationic framework, which is composed of mercury and arsenic atoms, with the channels being occupied by discrete CdI₄²⁻ tetrahedral guest-anions. The optical properties were investigated in terms of the diffuse reflectance and Fourier transform infrared spectra. The electronic band structure along with density of states (DOS) calculated by DFT method indicates that the present compound is a semiconductor with a direct band gap, and that the optical absorption is mainly originated from the charge transitions from I-5p and As-4p to Cd-5s and Hg-6s states.

Hg2M2F6S et Hg2M2F6O: Deux nouvelles familles de pyrochlores contenant du mercure et des métaux M de transition divalents

New pyrochlore compounds Hg₂M₂F₆S (M = Zn, Cu, Ni, Co, Mn, Mg) and Hg₂M₂F₆O (M = Zn, Cu, Ni, Co, Mg) have been prepared and characterized.
