Visible-light photoresponsive heterojunctions of (Nb–Ti–Si) and (Bi/Bi-O) nanoparticles

The increasing motivation to seek alternative sources of clean and sustainable energy has intensified, due to a growing awareness that fossil fuels are finite in quantity, and that the combustion products of such fuels contribute to global warming. Solar energy is considered one of the most readily available alternatives, but materials which are able to harness this form of energy need to be developed. This study details the development of a novel composite material, of the form of Bi/Bi-O nanoparticles supported on a (Nb–Ti–Si) oxide. Characterized using electrochemical and other methods, this material generates a photocurrent, and is capable of photo-oxidizing airborne-styrene in a fluidized-bed photoreactor when exposed to visible-light.

Characteristics of Ti–Nb,Ti–Zr and Ti–Al containing hydrogenated carbon nitride films

Nanocomposite Me–C–N:H coatings (Me is TiNb, TiZr or TiAl), with relatively high non-metal/metal ratios, were prepared by cathodic arc method using TiNb, TiZr and TiAl alloy cathodes in a CH₄ + N₂ atmosphere. For comparison purposes, a-C–N:H films were also produced through evaporating a graphite cathode in a similar atmosphere. The films were characterized in terms of elemental and phase compositions, chemical bonds, texture, hardness, adhesion and friction behavior by GDOES, XPS, Raman spectroscopy and XRD techniques, surface profilometry, hardness and scratch adhesion measurements, and tribological tests. The nanocomposite films consisted of a mixture of crystalline metal carbonitride and amorphous carbon nitride. The non-metal/metal ratio in the films composition was found to range between 1.8 and 1.9. For the metal containing nanocomposites, grain size in the range 7–23 nm, depending on the metal nature, were determined. As compared with the a-C–N:H, the Me–C–N:H films exhibited a much higher hardness (up to about 39 GPa for Ti–Zr–C–N:H) and a better adhesion strength, while the coefficients of friction were somewhat higher (0.2–0.3 for Me–C–N:H and 0.1 for a-C–N:H).

Final R=0.039 for 4160 reflections.The title compound is a rather irregular trinuclear molybdenum cluster having only two M-M bonds with two shorter Mo-Mo distances of 2.808(1), 2.839(1), and one longer Mo-Mo distance of 3.337(1)8. The existence of two Mo-Mo bonds is coincident with the electron counting for {Mo3} cluster core, and may be regarded as a result of the oxidation of a compound Mo3(μ3-S)(μ-S)2 (μ-L)[S2P(OEt)2]4(L') (L'=neutral ligands)1 characterized by us previously.     

Determination of the stability constants of Pb–(DIPSO)x–(OH)y and Pb–(AMPSO)x–(OH)y systems

In this work, complexation between lead ion and the ligands 3-[N,N-bis(2-hydroxyethyl)amino]-2-hydroxypropanesulfonic acid (DIPSO) and N-(1,1-dimethyl-2-hydroxyethyl)-3-amino-2-hydroxypropanesulfonic acid (AMPSO), which are commercial pH buffers, is presented. Both ligands form complexes with lead in their pH buffer range (between pH 6.5 and 8.5 for DIPSO and between pH 8.0 and 9.0 for AMPSO). The final models and the overall stability constants, which are reported here, were determined by direct current polarography and glass electrode potentiometry [only for the Pb–(DIPSO)_x–(OH)_y system] at 25.0 °C and 0.1 M KNO₃ ionic strength. For the Pb–(DIPSO)_x–(OH)_y system, the proposed final model contains PbL, PbL₂, PbL₂(OH), and PbL₂(OH)₂ with stability constants, as log β, of 3.4 ± 0.1, 6.35 ± 0.15, 12.8 ± 0.2, and 18.0 ± 0.3, respectively. For the Pb–(AMPSO)_x–(OH)_y system, the species observed are PbL, PbL(OH), and PbL(OH)₂ with stability constants, as log β, of 2.9 ± 0.5, 9.4 ± 0.1, and 14.5 ± 0.2, respectively. For AMPSO, the possible adsorption of the ligand at the mercury electrode surface was evaluated by alternating current polarography through calculation of the capacitance of the double layer.     

Asymmetric synthesis of (–)-leiocarpin A via (–)-(S)-goniothalamin employing Julia–Kocienski olefination

A concise and enantioselective syntheses of antileukemic natural products such as (–)-(S)-goniothalamin and (–)-leiocarpin A has been accomplished in excellent yields. By employing reported conditions on suitable substrates via Julia–Kocienski olefination, intramolecular lactonization, and subsequently dehydroxylative olefination, (–)-(S)-goniothalamin was synthesized. Then Sharpless asymmetric dihydroxylation–intramolecular Michael addition on (–)-(S)-goniothalamin provided (–)-leiocarpin A.     

Soft template synthesis in copper(II)–dithiooxamide–methanal,copper(II)–dithiooxamide–ethanal and copper(II)–dithiooxamide–propanone triple systems in a copper(II)hexacyanoferrate(II) gelatin-immobilized matrix

Novel complexing processes in the Cu^II–dithiooxamide–methanal, Cu^II–dithiooxamide–ethanal and Cu^II–dithiooxamide–propanone triple systems proceeding under specific conditions, to copper(II)hexacyanoferrate(II) gelatin-immobilized matrix systems in contact with aqueous-alkaline (pH 12) solutions containing dithiooxamide and methanal, ethanal or propanone, have been studied. It has been shown that template synthesis leading to the formation of macrocyclic coordination compounds (2,8-dithio-3,7-diaza-5-oxanonandithioamide-1,9)copper(II), (2,8-dithio-3,7-diaza-4,6-dimethyl-5-oxanonandithio-amide-1,9)copper(II) and (4,4,6-trimethyl-2,8-dithio-3,7-diazanonen-6-dithioamide-1,9)copper(II), respectively, takes place under such conditions. Dithiooxamide, methanal, ethanal and propanone act as ligand synthons in these processes.     

Pyrolysis kinetics of ethylene–propylene (EPM) and ethylene–propylene–diene (EPDM)

The thermal degradation kinetics of several ethylene–propylene copolymers (EPM) and ethylene–propylene–diene terpolymers (EPDM), with different chemical compositions, have been studied by means of the combined kinetic analysis. Until now, attempts to establish the kinetic model for the process have been unsuccessful and previous reports suggest that a model other than a conventional nth order might be responsible. Here, a random scission kinetic model, based on the breakage and evaporation of cleavaged fragments, is found to describe the degradation of all compositions studied. The suitability of the kinetic parameters resulting from the analysis has been asserted by successfully reconstructing the experimental curves. Additionally, it has been shown that the activation energy for the pyrolysis of the EPM copolymers decreases by increasing the propylene content. An explanation for this behavior is given. A low dependence of the EPDM chemical composition on the activation energy for the pyrolysis has been reported, although the thermal stability is influenced by the composition of the diene used.     

BF3·OEt2-promoted diastereoselective diacetoxylation of alkenes by PhI(OAc)2

Selective syn and anti diacetoxylations of alkenes have been achieved using a PhI(OAc)(2)/BF(3)·OEt(2) system in the presence and absence of water, respectively. A broad range of substrates including electron-deficient alkenes (such as α,β-unsaturated esters) could be elaborated efficiently at room temperature with this methodology, furnishing the desired products in good to excellent yields and diastereoselectivity. In particular, a multigram-scale diastereoselective diacetoxylation of methyl cinnamate (5.00 g) was also accomplished in a few hours, maintaining the same efficiency as small-scale reaction. This novel methodology provides an alternative approach for the preparation of various 1,2-diols.     

Syntheses and structures of chalcogen–molybdenum clusters; [Mo3XSe6{S2P(OEt)2}3]Cl, [Mo3X(SeS)3{S2P(OEt)2}3]I and [Mo3 XSe3{S2P(OEt)2}4(py)] (X=0.65S+0.35Se,py= C5H5N)

The trinuclear Mo cluster [Mo3(3–X)(2–Se2)3{S2P-(OEt)2}3]Cl (X=0.65S+0.35Se) (1) has been synthesised by reacting MoCl3·3H2O with ZnSe and [Me4N][S2P(OEt)2] in an EtOH/HCl medium. Reduction of (1) by Ph3P in the presence of [Me4N]-[S2P(OEt)2] and pyridine gave [Mo3(3–X)(2–Se)3 {S2P(OEt)2}4(py)] (X=0.65S+0.35Se, py=C5H5N) (2). Complex (2) was, in turn, converted into [Mo3(3–X)(2–SeS)3{S2P(OEt)2}3]I (X=0.65S+0.35Se) (3) by treatment with H2S and I2. The structures of complexes (1), (2) and (3) were established by X-ray crystallography.
