Monomeric cyclopalladated complexes with NC coordination using ligands 2-phenylpyridine, 2-phenylquinoline, 8-methylquinoline have been synthesized and the structures have been determined by single crystal X-ray structure analysis.

Ligand‐free Cu(0)‐mediated controlled radical polymerization of methyl methacrylate at ambient temperature

For the first time, ligand‐free Cu(0)‐mediated polymerization of methyl methacrylate (MMA) was realized by the selection of ethyl‐2‐bromo‐2‐phenylacetate as initiator at ambient temperature. The polymerization can reach up to 90% conversion within 5 h with dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) as solvent, while keeping manners of the controlled radical polymerization. Extensive investigation of this system revealed that for a well‐controlled Cu(0)‐mediated polymerization of MMA, the initiator should be selected with the structure as alkyl 2‐bromo‐2‐phenylacetate, and the solvent should be DMSO or N,N‐dimethylformamide. The selectivity for solvents indicated a typical single‐electron transfer‐living radical polymerization process. Scanning for other monomers indicated that under equal conditions, the polymerizations of other alkyl (meth)acrylates were uncontrollable. Based on these results, plausible reasons were discussed. The ligand‐free Cu(0)‐mediated polymerization showed its superiority with economical components and needless removal of Cu species from the resultant products. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Isotope-dependent crystalline phases at ambient temperature: Spectroscopic and calorimetric evidence for a deuteration-induced phase transition at 320 K in α-DCrO2

The heat capacities of HCrO₂ and DCrO₂ have been measured at temperatures between 5 and 360 K. A lambda anomaly occurred at 320 K for DCrO₂ but not for HCrO₂. Infrared spectra were recorded at temperatures between 5 and 405 K. The spectrum of DCrO₂ changed at 320 K with respect to the peak wave-number and splitting of some of the vibrations, while those of HCrO₂ depended smoothly on temperature. These experimental results are discussed in terms of a deuteration-induced phase transition.     

K3NiO2 Revisited,Phase Transition and Crystal Structure Refinement

Single crystals as well as microcrystalline powders of K₃NiO₂ were obtained via the azide/nitrate route, starting from stoichiometric mixtures of KN₃, KNO₃ and NiO, at 923 K. According to temperature dependent X‐ray investigations, K₃NiO₂ exhibits a phase transition at approx. 423 K. Single crystal X‐ray analysis at 500 K has shown that the high temperature modification (β‐K₃NiO₂, tP12) crystallizes in P4₂/mnm (Z = 2, a = 6.0310(9), c = 7.156(1) Å, R₁ = 0.037, R₂ = 0.105). The ambient temperature modification (α‐K₃NiO₂, tP24) was refined as a racemic twin (P4₁2₁2/P4₃2₁2; a = 6.012(4), c = 13.843(8) Å, R₁ = 0.029, R₂ = 0.070 at 100 K; a = 6.0300(9), c = 14.065(3) Å, R₁ = 0.032, R₂ = 0.082 at 298 K) yielding nearly equal volumes for both enantiomorphs. The structural relationship within the A₃MX₂ family is analyzed and displayed as a Bärnighausen tree. The essential feature of the low and high temperature phases are isolated NiO₂^3–dumbbells, which are linked by potassium atoms to infinite chains.     

La掺杂的TiO2纳米棒在常温常压下可促进电催化的N2转化为NH3

氨在化肥、染料、药品和炸药的制造中起着重要作用.目前,传统的Haber-Bosch工艺主要用于NH3的大规模工业化生产,在苛刻的反应条件(300～500℃,150～300 atm)下不可避免地伴随着温室气体的过量排放.因此,必须寻求一种绿色并且可持续的方法来生产NH3.电化学还原N2 (NRR)已成为在环境条件下将N2连续固定NH3的一种有吸引力的替代方法.由于稳定的N-N具有较强的偶极矩并与析氢反应存在激烈竞争,因此需要高效的NRR催化剂.TiO2是典型的n型半导体,被认为是一种很有前途的NRR电催化剂.最近的研究表明,La2O3对N2还原电催化也具有活性,然而镧金属的稀土性质限制了其大规模应用.本文研究发现镧可以作为一种有效的掺杂剂提高TiO2的NRR活性.通过水热法制备了镧掺杂的TiO2纳米棒(La-TiO2).透射电子显微镜结果表明,原始TiO2与La-TiO2在形貌上都是纳米棒,镧的引入对其形貌并没有显著影响.选区电子衍射证实了La-TiO2纳米棒的高结晶度和四边形单晶结构.电子自旋共振分析结果表明La-TiO2纳米棒中存在氧空位.La-TiO2的线性扫描伏安曲线结果表明,在N2饱和电解液中的电流密度明显大于在Ar饱和电解液中,说明NRR的发生.为了进一步证实这一假设,在五个不同电位下分别进行了一系列的计时电流测试,结果表明,连续电解2h后在-0.70 V时,NH3产率最高,达23.06 μg h-1 mgcat-1,并且法拉第效率也最大,达14.54％.此外,电解2h后,没有检测到副产物N2H4,表明La-TiO2催化剂对NH3合成具有良好的选择性.本文还比较了La-TiO2/CP,TiO2/CP和CP的NRR电催化性能,结果表明,La-TiO2/CP的NH3产率最高,说明La的引入提高了La-TiO2的NRR活性.La-TiO2/CP通过在-0.70 V下连续6次循环测试以及连续48 h电解测试证实La-TiO2对NRR电催化具有良好的电化学稳定性.通过对La-Ov构型进行密度泛函理论计算,重点研究*N2+H++e-→*NNH的反应步骤,由于*N2加氢的自由能垒较低,La-TiO2更容易激活N2分子,计算了La-TiO2和纯TiO2上*NNH中间体的电荷密度差异,*NNH与La-TiO2之间存在更多的电荷转移.采用N-N键的积分晶体轨道哈密顿布居(ICOHP)分析出La-TiO2的ICOHP负值较小(-16.67 vs.-19.93),说明N-N键的活化更多.

Heterogeneous chemistry of the NO3 free radical and N2O5 on decane flame soot at ambient temperature: reaction products and kinetics

The interaction of NO3 free radical and N2O5 with laboratory flame soot was investigated in a Knudsen flow reactor at T = 298 K equipped with beam-sampling mass spectrometry and in situ REMPI detection of NO2 and NO. Decane (C10H22) has been used as a fuel in a co-flow device for the generation of gray and black soot from a rich and a lean diffusion flame, respectively. The gas-phase reaction products of NO3 reacting with gray soot were NO, N2O5, HONO, and HNO3 with HONO being absent on black soot. The major loss of NO3 is adsorption on gray and black soot at yields of 65 and 59%, respectively, and the main gas-phase reaction product is N2O5 owing to heterogeneous recombination of NO3 with NO2 and NO according to NO3 + {C} --> NO + products. HONO was quantitatively accounted for by the interaction of NO2 with gray soot in agreement with previous work. Product N2O5 was generated through heterogeneous recombination of NO3 with excess NO2, and the small quantity of HNO3 was explained by heterogeneous hydrolysis of N2O5. The reaction products of N2O5 on both types of soot were equimolar amounts of NO and NO2, which suggest the reaction N2O5 + {C} --> N2O3(ads) + products with N2O3(ads) decomposing into NO + NO2. The initial and steady-state uptake coefficients gamma 0 and gamma ss of both NO3 and N2O5 based on the geometric surface area continuously increase with decreasing concentration at a concentration threshold for both types of soot. gamma ss of NO3 extrapolated to [NO3] --> 0 is independent of the type of soot and is 0.33 +/- 0.06 whereas gamma ss for [N2O5] --> 0 is (2.7 +/- 1.0) x 10(-2) and (5.2 +/- 0.2) x 10(-2) for gray and black soot, respectively. Above the concentration threshold of both NO3 and N2O5, gamma ss is independent of concentration with gamma ss(NO3) = 5.0 x 10(-2) and gamma ss(N2O5) = 5.0 x 10(-3). The inverse concentration dependence of gamma below the concentration threshold reveals a complex reaction mechanism for both NO3 and N2O5. The atmospheric significance of these results is briefly discussed.
