The thermal decomposition of [Mo(NO)₂Cl₂]_n was studied. It was found that N₂ and MoOCl₄ were evolved at 340°C in an exothermic reaction and the solid residue was MoO₃. The Mo(NO)₂Cl₂L_n-type alcohol complexes are similary decomposed after the alcohol is split off in an endothermic process. The decomposition products of glycol derivatives are N₂, N₂O, CO, Cl₂, different organic carbonyl compounds and metallic molybdenum.     

Textural and catalytic properties of the FexOy/Fe-KClO4 system

Selected properties of commercial iron powders, standardised in the atmosphere of hydrogen, have been studied. The reactivity of iron oxides in the thermal decomposition of KClO₄ in the solid-state mechanical mixture of Fe and KClO₄ containing 9, 13, 17, 21 and 25 wt.% of KClO₄, respectively, has been tested by the differential thermal analysis (DTA) and thermogravimetric analysis (TG). It has been established that the Fe₃O₄ phase on the surface of the iron powder act as an effective catalysts in the thermal decomposition of KClO₄.     

Resonance Raman spectrum of the complex [(C2H5)4N] AuBr4

A resonance Raman spectrum of the complex [(C₂H₅)₄N] AuBr₄ has been observed by use of 457.9 nm Ar⁺ excitation. Three progressions in the totally symmetric stretching fundamental ν₁ (a_1g) have been observed, viz. nν₁ (as far as n = 9), ν₂ + nν₁ (as far as n = 1), and ν₄ + nν₁ (as far as n = 6). The spectroscopic constants ω₁ and x₁₁ have been determined from an analysis of the nν₁ and ν₄ + nν₁ progressions.     

Mononuclear,three-coordinate metal thiolates: Preparation and crystal structures of [NBun4][Hg(SPh)3] and [NPrn4] [Pb(SPh)3]

Dissolution of HgO or PbO in methanolic solutions of NaSPh yields homogeneous solutions from which highly crystalline [NBuⁿ₄][Hg(SPh)₃] (1) or [NPrⁿ⁴][PB(SPh)₃] (2) can be isolated on addition of appropriate quaternary ammonium salts. 1 crystallizes in monoclinic space group P2₁/a with a = 20.663(7), b = 16.812(6), c = 9.757(3) Å, β = 95.52(2)° and Z = 4.

The decomposition kinetics of [Et4N]2[M(dmit)2] (M = Ni, Pd) in a nitrogen atmosphere using thermogravimetry

Thermal properties and thermal decompositions of [NEt₄]₂[M(dmit)₂] (M = Ni(II), Pd(II), dmit = 1,3-dithiole-2-thione-4,5-dithiolate) have been studied by thermogravimetry (TG). The TG analysis has shown that the complexes are thermally stable up to 460 K and the decomposition of the complexes occurs in three consecutive stages up to 873 K. A thermal stability scale for [M(dmit)₂]ⁿ⁻ anions was based on the thermal properties. Kinetics parameters, such as activation energy, E_a, and kinetic apparent pre-exponential factor, ln A_app, have been calculated from the thermogravimetric data at heating rates of 10, 15, 20 and 25 K/min involving differential (Friedman's equation) and integral (Flynn-Wall-Ozawa's equation) methods.

Kinetics of thermal decomposition of Co3O4 powder and single crystals

Kinetics of thermal decomposition in vacuum of Co₃O₄ powder as well as single crystals has been investigated. Discrepancies with the results of previous authors have been discussed. Decomposition of Co₃O₄ proceeds through formation of a compact layer of CoO and hence diffusion is the rate-limiting factor. The experimental curves α(t) be described for 0.05 < α < 0.85 using a modified Ginstling-Brounshtein equation: 1 ? 2α/3 ? (1 ? α)^2/3 = ktⁿ where the activation energy varies with the degree of decomposition.     

Structural and vibrational studies of Li[Kx(NH4)1−x]SO4 and Li2KNH4(SO4)2 mixed crystals

Mixed crystals of Li[K_x(NH₄)_1−x]SO₄ have been obtained by evaporation from aqueous solution at 313 K using different molar ratios of mixtures of LiKSO₄ and LiNH₄SO₄. The crystals were characterized by Raman scattering and single-crystal and powder X-ray diffraction. Two types of compound were obtained: Li[K_x(NH₄)_1−x]SO₄ with x?0.94 and Li₂KNH₄(SO₄)₂. Different phases of Li[K_x(NH₄)_1−x]SO₄ were yielded according to the molar ratio used in the preparation. The first phase is isostructural to the room-temperature phase of LiKSO₄. The second phase is the enantiomorph of the first, which is not observed in pure LiKSO₄, and the last is a disordered phase, which was also observed in LiKSO₄, and can be assumed as a mixture of domains of two preceding phases. In the second type of compound with formula Li₂KNH₄(SO₄)₂, the room-temperature phase is hexagonal, symmetry space group P6₃ with cell-volume nine times that of LiKSO₄. In this phase, some cavities are occupied by K⁺ ions only, and others are occupied by either K⁺ or NH₄⁺ at random. Thermal analyses of both types of compounds were performed by DSC, ATD, TG and powder X-ray diffraction. The phase transition temperatures for Li[K_x(NH₄)_1−x]SO₄x?0.94 were affected by the random presence of the ammonium ion in this disordered system. The high-temperature phase of Li₂KNH₄(SO₄)₂ is also hexagonal, space group P6₃/mmc with the cell a-parameter double that of LiKSO₄. The phase transition is at 471.9 K.     

Reactions of NH+n and ND+n (n = 0–4) with C2H4 and C2D4 at 300 K

Rate coefficients and product-ion distributions for NH⁺_n and ND⁺_n (n = 0–4) with both C₂H₄ and C₂D₄ are presented. The use of the deuterated species allowed the fraction of each of the product ion types to be determined unambiguously. The data also demonstrate how the technique can be used to obtain information on the mechanisms of relatively complex ion/molecule reactions.     

Hydro(solvo)thermal synthesis and structural characterization of a new organically templated gallophosphate: [H3N(CH2)2NH3]1/2·[Ga5 (PO4)4(OH)4]

A new three-dimensional open-framework gallophosphate: [H₃N(CH₂)₂NH₃]_1/2·[Ga₅ (PO₄)₄(OH)₄] has been prepared by hydro(solvo)thermal synthesis in presence of ethylenediamine (en) as structure-directing agent. Its structure was determined by means of single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis with the following crystal data: monoclinic space group C2/m, a=10.1604(9) Å, b=12.0085(15) Å, c=7.1892(7) Å, β=90.797(6)°, V=877.08(16) Å³, Z=2, R₁=0.0264, wR₂=0.0764. The total numbers of measured reflections and unique reflections were 3508 and 1300, respectively. It is built up from a new secondary building unit (SBU) Ga₄P₄O₂₀(OH)₄, in which Ga atoms exhibit distorted trigonal bipyramidal coordination and P atoms are in tetrahedral coordination. The SBU Ga₄P₄O₂₀(OH)₄ are linked into a layer by bridge oxygen atoms. The GaO₄(OH)₂ octahedra link the layers into a three-dimentional framework. Diprotonated ethylenediamine was found in the channel of the framework. The material was characterized by IR spectroscopy, ¹H NMR spectra, thermogravimetric and differential thermal analyses and elemental analysis.     

Solvothermal synthesis and characterisation of new one-dimensional indium and gallium sulphides: [C10N4H26]0.5[InS2] and [C10N4H26]0.5[GaS2]

Two new main group metal sulphides, [C₁₀N₄H₂₆]_0.5[InS₂] (1) and [C₁₀N₄H₂₆]_0.5[GaS₂] (2) have been prepared solvothermally in the presence of 1,4-bis(3-aminopropyl)piperazine and their crystal structures determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Both compounds are isostructural and crystallise in the monoclinic space group P2₁/n (Z=4), with a=6.5628(5), b=11.2008(9), c=12.6611(9) Å and β=94.410(4)° (wR=0.035) for compound (1) and a=6.1094(5), b=11.2469(9), c=12.7064(10) Å and β=94.313(4)° (wR=0.021) for compound (2). The structure of [C₁₀N₄H₂₆]_0.5[MS₂] (M=In,Ga) consists of one-dimensional [MS₂]⁻ chains which run parallel to the crystallographic a axis and are separated by diprotonated amine molecules. These materials represent the first example of solvothermally prepared one-dimensional gallium and indium sulphides.     

Preparation and thermal stability of trioxalatocobaltates of bivalent metals KM2+ [Co(C2O4)3]·xH2O

Trioxalatocobaltates of bivalent metals KM²⁺[Co(C₂O₄)₃]·x H₂O, with M²⁺ = Ba, Sr, Ca and Pb, have been prepared, characterized and their thermal behaviour studied. The compounds decompose to yield potassium carbonate, bivalent metal carbonate or oxide and cobalt oxide as final products. The formation of the final products of decomposition is influenced by the surrounding atmosphere. Bivalent metal cobaltites of the types KM²⁺CoO₃ and M²⁺CoO_3—x are not identified among the final products of decomposition. The study brings out the importance of the decomposition mode of the precursor in producing the desired end products.     

Preparation and electrical resistivities of tetrathiafulvalen (TTF) and tetraselenafulvalen salts with the [SnR2Cln]2-n anions (n = 3 or 4: R = Et or Ph) and X-ray crystal structure of [TTF]3[SnEt2Cl4]

Tetrathiafulvalen (TTF) and tetraselenafulvalen (TSF) salts with diorganochloro-stannate anions, [TTF][SnEt₂Cl₃] (1), [TTF]₂[SnPh₂Cl₄] (2), [TTF]₃[SnEt₂Cl₄] (3), [TTF]_3.3[SnPh₂Cl₄] (4), [TSF]₂[SnPh₂Cl₄] (5) and [TSF]_3.3[SnPh₂Cl₄] (6), were prepared by the reactions of [TTF or TSF]₃[BF₄]₂ with SnR₂Cl₂ (R = Et or Ph) in the presence of [Ph₃PCH₂Ph]Cl and by electrocrystallization of TTF or TSF in acetonitrile containing SnR₂Cl₂ and [Ph₃PCH₂Ph]Cl. All the salts behave as semiconductors with electrical resistivities of the order of 10–10⁸ Ω cm as compacted samples at 25°C. Electronic reflectance spectra of the simple salts 1, 2 and 5, show a band due to the dimeric(TTF⁺)₂ or (TSF⁺)₂ unit in the 12,200–12,800-cm^?1 region. The complex salt 3 exhibits a TTF⁺/TTF° charge-transfer (CT) band at 8700 cm^?1, and the remaining complex salts, 4 and 6, both display CT bands between the radical cations and between the radical cation and the neutral donor molecule. The crystal structure of 3 was determined by a single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The tetragonal crystal, space group I4cm, has cell dimensions a = 11.710(3) Å, c = 25.242(7) Å, and Z = 4. The structure was solved by the heavy-atom method and refined to a final R value of 0.082 for 479 independent reflections with >F_° > 3σ(F). TTF molecules exist as trimers, in which a slight lateral shift from the eclipsed TTF overlap occurs, although TTF molecules are arranged with equal spacing between them. The trimer units are located perpendicularly to each other, forming a two-dimensional layer. The [SnEt₂Cl₄]^2? anion is disordered with respect to the two SnEt and two SnCl bonds.     

Gallium and indium dithiocarboxylates: Synthesis, spectroscopic characterization and structure of [MeGa(S2Ctol)2]

Several gallium and indium dithiocarboxylate complexes of the type [Me_nM(S₂CR)_3−n] (M = Ga, In; n = 0, 1, 2; R = phenyl (Ph), p-tolyl (tol), mesityl (Mes)) have been synthesized. These complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, IR, UV-vis and NMR (¹H,¹³C{¹H}) spectroscopy. Structure of [MeGa(S₂Ctol)₂] was established by X-ray crystallography. The gallium atom adopts a distorted five coordinate geometry which is intermediate between trigonal bipyramidal and square pyramidal configurations. The complex [Me₂InS₂Ctol] underwent a two-step thermal decomposition leading to the formation of tetragonal β-In₂S₃.     

HRTEM study of cation-deficient perovskite-related AnBn−δO3n (n?4δ) microphases in the Ba5Nb4O15-BaTiO3 system

The occurrence of coherent intergrowths of cation-deficient perovskites in the Ba₅Nb₄O₁₅-BaTiO₃ system has been examined by high-resolution transmission electron microscopy and selected area electron diffraction. Because of their structural similarity, the simple members Ba₅Nb₄O₁₅ (n=5) and Ba₆TiNb₄O₁₈ (n=6) form coherent intergrowths—noted 5^P6¹—by the juxtaposition along the c-axis of P perovskite-like blocks n=5 and one perovskite-like block n=6, with P=1, 2 and 3. More generally, the ability to form intergrowths in the hexagonal perovskite systems is discussed considering the structural characteristics of the simple members. Examples taken from various systems show that the formation of such intergrowths is highly dependent on the size of the A cation present in simple members.     

Cannizzaro’s (C7H6)n conundrum resolved: [1.1.1]orthocyclophane was first made 150 years ago

The product of the reaction of benzyl alcohol with a number of Lewis acids was shown by Cannizzaro in 1854 to have the empirical formula (C₇H₆)_n, and this material has been the subject of much controversy for many decades. Its attribution as an isomer of 1,2,3,4,5,6-hexaphenylcyclohexane is shown to be incorrect, and instead it has been identified as 10,15-dihydro-5H-tribenzo[a,d,g]cyclononene, 3, the parent [1.1.1]orthocyclophane, the X-ray crystal structure of which is reported.     

Preparation and cis-to-trans transformation study of square-planar [Pt(Ln)2Cl2] complexes bearing cytokinins derived from 6-benzylaminopurine (Ln) by view of NMR spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography

Mononuclear, square-planar platinum(II) complexes involving derivatives of aromatic cytokinins as the ligands, and having the general formula cis-[Pt(L_n)₂Cl₂] (1–3) and trans-[Pt(L_n)₂Cl₂] (4–6), where n = 1–3, L₁ = 2-chloro-6-(benzylamino)-9-isopropylpurine, L₂ = 2-chloro-6-[(4-methoxybenzyl)amino]-9-isopropylpurine and L₃ = 2-chloro-6-[(2-methoxybenzyl)-amino]-9-isopropylpurine, have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, MALDI-TOF mass, FT IR, ¹H, ¹³C, ¹⁵N and ¹⁹⁵Pt NMR spectral measurements. Dynamic cis-to-trans isomerization process of complex 1 in N,N′-dimethylformamide (DMF) has been investigated by means of multinuclear NMR spectroscopy. The solid-state structures of 1, 4 · (DMF)₂, and 5 have been determined by single crystal X-ray analysis. X-ray structures revealed that the heterocyclic ligands are coordinated to platinum via nitrogen atom N(7) in all the complexes studied. In vitro cytotoxicity of the prepared complexes against MCF7, G361, K562, and HOS has been evaluated. Owing to low solubility of the complexes in water, the cytotoxicity has been only tested up to 5 μM concentration. Unfortunately, all complexes have been found to be non-cytotoxic in the accessible concentration range.     

Bond energies and thermal decomposition of [Pt(X)(CH3)(P(C2H5)3)2] complexes

The thermal decomposition of the complexes trans-[Pt(X)(CH₃)L₂] (L  P(C₂H₅)₃; X  Cl, Br, I, CN) in decalin at 170 and 200°C affords methane platinum metal and [Pt(X)₂L₂]. The kinetics of the decomposition of the complexes were determined by monitoring the appearance of methane by GLC. The observed first-order rate constant was found to be independent on the nature of the ligand X. The thermal decomposition of the trideuteriomethyl complexes [Pt(X)(CD₃)L₂] (X  I, CN) in decalin-d₁₈ at 170 and 200°C was studied by GLC/MS. The thermolysis affords CD₃H and CD₄ in ratios which are independent of the nature of X and of the temperature used. The mass spectra of the complexes were also examined. A relative scale of platinum-to-methyl bond dissociation energies has been established by measuring the appearance potential of the fragment ion [Pt(X)L₂]⁺ and the ionization energies in the series [Pt(X)(CH₃)L₂]. Ionization potentials and PtCH₃ bond energies show a clear dependence on the nature of X which is not reflected in corresponding changes in the decomposition rates.     

[H3N(CH2)4NH3]2[Al4(C2O4)(H2PO4)2(PO4)4]·4[H2O]: A new layered aluminum phosphate-oxalate

A new layered inorganic-organic hybrid aluminum phosphate-oxalate [H₃N(CH₂)₄NH₃]₂[Al₄(C₂O₄)(H₂PO₄)₂(PO₄)₄]·4[H₂O](AlPO-CJ25) has been synthesized hydrothermally, by using 1,4-diaminobutane (DAB) as structure-directing agent. The structure has been solved by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis and further characterized by IR, ³¹P MAS NMR, TG-DTA as well as compositional analyses. Crystal data: the triclinic space group P-1, a=8.0484(7) Å, b=8.8608(8) Å, c=13.2224(11) Å, α=80.830(6)°, β=74.965(5)°, γ=78.782(6)°, Z=2, R_1[I>2σ(I)]=0.0511 and wR_{2(all data)}=0.1423. The alternation of AlO₄ tetrahedra and PO₄ tetrahedra gives rise to the four-membered corner-sharing chains, which are interconnected through AlO₆ octahedra to form the layered structure with 4,6-net sheet. Interestingly, oxalate ions are bis-bidentately bonded by participating in the coordination of AlO₆, and bridging the adjacent AlO₆ octahedra. The layers are held with each other through strong H-bondings between the terminal oxygens. The organic ammonium cations and water molecules are located in the large cavities between the interlayer regions.
