Chelating agents role on phase formation and surface morphology of single orthorhombic YMn2O5 nanorods via modified polyacrylamide gel route

YMn2O5nanorods were synthesized through a modified polyacrylamide gel route.The synthesis strategy in this work is based on a sol-gel process using a polyacrylamide gel method in which oxalic acid,citric acid or tartaric acid is employed as the chelating agent.In the gel routes,oxalic acid was used as a carboxyl chelating agent,while citric acid or tartaric acid was a carboxyl and hydroxyl chelating agent.The as-prepared samples were characterized by means of techniques such as X-ray powder diffraction(XRD)measurement,thermogravimetric analysis(TG),differential scanning calorimetry analysis(DSC),Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FTIR),X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS),thermal expansion measurement and field-emission scanning electron microscopy(SEM)investigations.It was found that oxalic acid is the best chelating agent with Y(NO3)3·6H2O and Mn(CH3COO)2·4H2O as precursors to prepare a single orthorhombic YMn2O5nanorods at 1000°C.Scanning electron microscope observation shows that the morphology of YMn2O5powders is significantly dependent on the chelating agent.The peaks(single orthorhombic YMn2O5nanorods)at 642,600,573,546,521,493,486,468,448 and 400cm?1were observed from FTIR spectra.The phase,surface morphology and chelation mechanisms of YMn2O5samples have been discussed on the basis of the experimental results.

A self-assembled (H2O)20(CH3OH)4 binary cluster containing a grail-shaped hexadecameric water cluster trapped in the cavity of a metal-ligand hybrid

A discrete centrosymmetric(H2O)20(CH3OH)4 binary cluster was confined in the cavity of a metal-ligand hybrid [Ag4(bpda)2(bpp)4·14H2O·2CH3OH] n(1)(where bpp = 1,3-bis(4-pyridyl)propane and H 2 bpda = 2,2’-biphenyldicarboxylic acid).The novel mixed water-methanol cluster consists of one grail-shaped hexadecameric cluster,four dangling water and four hanging methanol molecules.The(H 2 O) 16 cluster is composed of two pairs of edge-sharing(H2O) 5 rings attached to one(H2O) 4 core with twenty hydrogen bonds.Alternatively,the(H2O) 16 cluster is structurally similar to a complicated hydrocarbon generated by undergoing [2+2] cycloaddition of 1,2,3,4,5,6-hexahydropentalene,which reveals the resemblance between water clusters and organic compounds.     

Complexation of radionuclide ~(152+154)Eu(Ⅲ) with alumina-bound fulvic acid studied by batch and time-resolved laser fluorescence spectroscopy

To contribute to the understanding of Eu(Ⅲ)interaction properties on hydrous alumina particles in the absence and presence of fulvic acid(FA),the complexation properties of Eu(Ⅲ)with hydrous alumina,FA and FA-alumina hybrids are studied by batch and time-resolved laser fluorescence spectroscopy(TRLFS)techniques.The continuous increase in the fluorescence lifetime of Eu-alumina and Eu-FA with increasing pH indicates that the complexation is accompanied by decreasing number of hydration water in the first coordination sphere of Eu(Ⅲ).Eu(Ⅲ)is adsorbed onto alumina particles as outer-sphere surface complexes of≡(Al-O)-Eu·(OH)·7H_2O and≡(Al-O)-Eu·6H_2O at low pH values,and as inner-sphere surface complexes as≡(Al-O)_2-Eu~+·4H_2O at high pH.In FA solution,Eu(Ⅲ)forms complexes with FA as(COO)_2Eu~+(H_2O)_x and the hydration water number in the first coordination sphere decreases with pH increasing.The formation of≡COO-Eu-(O-Al≡)·4H_2O is observed on FA-alumina hybrids,suggesting the formation of strong inner-sphere surface complexes in the presence of FA.The surface complexes are also characterized by their emission spectra[the ratio of emission intensities of~5D_0→~7F_1(λ=594nm)and~5D_0→~7F_2(λ=619nm)transitions]and their fluorescence lifetime.The findings is important to understand the contribution of FA in the complexation properties of Eu(Ⅲ)on FA-alumina hybrids that the clarification of the environmental behavior of humic substances is necessary to understand fully the behavior of Eu(Ⅲ),or its analogue trivalent lanthanide and actinide ions in natural environment.     

Multi-component hydrogen-bonding salts formed between imidazole and aromatic acids: Synthons cooperation and crystal structures

Imidazole base was crystallized with different aromatic carboxylic acids 2,4-dihydroxybenzoic acid, 5-chlorosalicylic acid, and 1,8-naphthalic acid, affording three new binary molecular organic salts of [(C 3 H 5 N 2 + )·(C 7 H 5 O 4 )] (1), [(C 3 H 5 N 2 + )·(C 7 H 4 O 3 Cl )] C 7 H 5 O 3 Cl (2), and [(C 3 H 5 N 2 + ) (C 12 H 7 O 4 )] (3). Proton transfer occurs from the COOH of carboxylic acid to nitrogen of imidazole in all complexes (1-3), leading to the hydrogen bond N-H…O in all structures. To our knowledge, the recognition pattern between the carboxylic acid group and imidazole (acid-imidazole synthon) is less well-studied so far. The cooperation among COOH, COO and imidazolium cation functional groups for the observed hydrogen bond synthons is examined in the three structures. Generally, the strong N-H…O and O-H…O hydrogen bonds define supramolecular architecture and connectivity within chains, while weaker C-H…O hydrogen bonds play the dominant role in controlling the interactions between layers in these novel organic salts. Thermal stability of these compounds has been investigated by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) of mass loss.
