Local Structure Analysis of Strontium Sorption to Hydrous Manganese Oxide

To develop mechanistic models of contaminant distribution processes, we conducted an X-ray absorption fine structure analysis of strontium sorption to hydrous manganese oxide (HMO). Sr K-edge measurements were performed at 298, 220, and 77 K, and at sample loadings from 10(-4) to 10(-2) mol Sr/g HMO. Results from fitting the first shell in the sorbed samples indicate that strontium is surrounded by 10-12 oxygen atoms at an average distance of 2.58 ?. This coordination environment is consistent with the strontium atom remaining hydrated upon sorption to the oxide, where in water hydrated strontium has approximately 9 atoms of oxygen at 2.62 ?. Furthermore, the temperature dependence of the strontium-oxygen bond also suggests physical adsorption due to the large contribution of the dynamic component of the Debye Waller factor. Although second-shell data are consistent with either 3 manganese atoms at 4.12 ? or 6 strontium atoms at 3.88 ?, both the near-edge and fine structure data for the manganese K-edge indicate that the local coordination environment of the manganese ion remains intact as a function of time or strontium sorption. Furthermore, the local structure of amorphous manganese oxide is highly ordered. Copyright 2000 Academic Press.     

Kinetics and mechanisms of Zn complexation on metal oxides using EXAFS spectroscopy

Zn(II) sorption onto Al and Si oxides was studied as a function of pH (5.1-7.52), sorption density, and ionic strength. This study was carried out to determine the role of the various reaction conditions and sorbent phases in Zn complexation at oxide surfaces. Extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) spectroscopy was used to probe the Zn atomic environment at the metal oxide/aqueous interface. For both amorphous silica and high-surface-area gibbsite, Zn sorption kinetics were rapid and reached completion within 24 h. In contrast, Zn sorption on low-surface-area-gibbsite was much slower, taking nearly 800 h for a sorption plateau to be reached. In the case of silica, EXAFS revealed that Zn was in octahedral coordination with first-shell oxygen atoms up to a surface loading of approximately 1 micro molm(-2), changing to tetrahedral coordination as surface loading and pH increased. For the high-surface-area gibbsite system, the Znz.sbnd;O first-shell distance was intermediate between values for tetrahedral and octahedral coordination over all loading levels. Zn formed inner-sphere adsorption complexes on both silica and high-surface-area gibbsite over all reaction conditions. For Zn sorption on low-surface-area gibbsite, formation of Znz.sbnd;Al layered double hydroxide (LDH) occurred and was the cause for the observed slow Zn sorption kinetics. The highest pH sample (7.51) in the Zn-amorphous silica system resulted in the formation of an amorphous Zn(OH)(2) precipitate with tetrahedral coordination between Zn and O. Aging the reaction samples did not alter the Zn complex in any of the systems. The results of this study indicate the variability of Zn complexation at surfaces prevalent in soil and aquatic systems and the importance of combining macroscopic observations with methods capable of determining metal complex formation mechanisms.     

An in situ Al K-edge XAS investigation of the local environment of H+- and Cu+-exchanged USY and ZSM-5 zeolites

Aluminum coordination in the framework of USY and ZSM-5 zeolites containing charge-compensating cations (NH4+, H+, or Cu+) was investigated by Al K-edge EXAFS and XANES. This work was performed using a newly developed in-situ cell designed especially for acquiring soft X-ray absorption data. Both tetrahedrally and octahedrally coordinated Al were observed for hydrated H-USY and H-ZSM-5, in good agreement with 27Al NMR analyses. Upon dehydration, water desorbed from the zeolite, and octahedrally coordinated Al was converted progressively to tetrahedrally coordinated Al. These observations confirmed the hypothesis that the interaction of water with Br?nsted acid protons can lead to octahedral coordination of Al without loss of Al from the zeolite lattice. When H+ is replaced with NH4+ or Cu+, charge compensating species that absorb less water, less octahedrally coordinated Al was observed. Analysis of Al K-edge EXAFS data indicates that the Al-O bond distance for tetrahedrally coordinated Al in dehydrated USY and ZSM-5 is 1.67 angstroms. Simulation of k3chi(k) for Cu+ exchanged ZSM-5 leads to an estimated distance between Cu+ and framework Al atoms of 2.79 angstroms.     

Th uptake on montmorillonite: a powder and polarized extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) study

The uptake process of Th(IV) onto montmorillonite was studied using powder and polarized-EXAFS (P-EXAFS) spectroscopy. Sorption samples were prepared in 0.1 M NaClO(4) solutions either undersaturated (pH 2 and 3, [Th](initial): 2.7x10(-6) to 4x10(-4) M) or supersatured (pH 5, [Th](initial): 4.3x10(-5) to 4x10(-4) M) with respect to amorphous ThO(2). Th loading varied between 1-157 micromol/g at pH 3 and 14-166 micromol/g at pH 5 and equaled 41 micromol/g at pH 2. At pH 5 and high surface loading the EXAFS spectrum resembled that of amorphous Th(OH)(4), suggesting the precipitation of a Th hydrous hydroxide. At low and intermediate surface coverage two O coordination shells at approximately 2.24 and approximately 2.48 A, and one Si shell at 3.81-3.88 A, were systematically observed regardless of pH. The formation of Th nucleation products and Th-Si solution complexes and the sorption of Th on a silica precipitate were excluded from the EXAFS spectra analysis and solution chemistry. In these conditions, Th was shown to bond the montmorillonite surface by sharing double corners with Si tetrahedra. This structural interpretation is consistent with surface coverage calculations which showed that the edge sites were saturated in the two highest concentrated samples (34 and 157 micromol/g) at pH 3.     

Complexes of zinc,cadmium and mercury(II) with the zwitter-ionic form of NN′-ethylenebis (salicylideneimine)

The Schiff base NN′-ethylenebis(salicylideneimine), H₂ salen reacts with hydrous and anhydrous Zinc, Cadmium and Mercury(II) salts to give complexes M(H₂ salen)X₂·nH₂O (M = Zn, Cd, Hg; XCl, Br, I, NO₃; MZn, X₂SO₄; n = 0?2). Spectroscopic and other evidence indicated that; (i) halide and sulphate are coordinated to the metal ion, whereas the nitrate group is ionic in mercury nitrate compound and covalently bonded in zinc and cadmium nitrato complexes, (ii) the Schiff base is coordinated through the negatively charged phenolic oxygen atoms and not the nitrogen atoms, which carry the protons transferred from phenolic groups on coordination, (iii) therefore the coordination numbers suggested are 4-, in mercury and 4- or 6- in zinc and cadmium Schiff base complexes.     

Hydrated structures and dehydration processes of lanthanoid(III) chloranilates studied by EXAFS

The local structures of lanthanoid(III) chloranilate complexes of Pr(III), Nd(III), Tb(III) and Er(III) have been studied by EXAFS (extended X-ray absorption fine structure). Hydrated structures of the lanthanoid(III) ions in these complexes have been investigated with respect to their coordination numbers and interatomic distances. Six or four water molecules coordinate to the lanthanoid(III) ion of Pr(III) or Nd(III), respectively, just after preparation of the complexes. The temperature dependence of the first coordinated structures has been studied in order to reveal the behavior of the coordinated water molecules in dehydration process. The coordination number around the central lanthanoid(III) ion decreases stepwise as temperature increases, depending on the type of central lanthanoid(III) ion present. The interatomic distance between the central lanthanoid(III) ion and oxygen atoms in the first shell decreases, accompanying the decrease of the coordination numbers. A parameter representing proportion shows the reduction of interatomic distance as one coordinated water molecule removes from the central ion, depending on the type of lanthanoid(III) ions.     

LiTFSI structure and transport in ethylene carbonate from molecular dynamics simulations

Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations using a many-body polarizable force field were performed on ethylene carbonate (EC) doped with lithium bistrifluoromethanesulfonamide (LiTFSI) salt as a function of temperature and salt concentration. At 313 K Li+ was coordinated by 2.7-3.2 EC carbonyl oxygen atoms and 0.67-1.05 TFSI- oxygen atoms at EC:Li = 10 and 20 salt concentrations. In completely dissociated electrolytes, however, Li+ was solvated by approximately 3.8 carbonyl oxygen atoms from EC on average. The probability of ions to participate ion aggregates decreased exponentially with an increase in the size of the aggregate. Ion and solvent self-diffusion coefficients and conductivity predicted by MD simulations were in good agreement with experiments. Approximately half of the charge was transported by charged ion aggregates with the other half carried by free (uncomplexed by counterion) ions. Investigation of the Li+ transport mechanism revealed that contribution from the Li+ diffusion together with its coordination shell to the total Li+ transport is similar to the contribution arising from Li+ exchanging solvent molecules in its first coordination shell with solvents from the outer shells.     

Crystal structures and spectroscopic properties of zinc(II) ternary complexes of vitamin L, H' and their isomer m-aminobenzoic acid with bipyridine

The crystal structures of the three Zn(II) complexes, [Zn(bpy)(o-AB)2] (1) (bpy=2,2'-bipyridine, o-AB=o-aminobenzoic acid=Vitamin L), [Zn(bpy)(m-AB)Cl]2 (2) (m-AB=m-aminobenzoic acid), [Zn(bpy)(p-AB)Cl]*p-AB*H2O (3) (p-AB=p-aminobenzoic acid=Vitamin H'), have been determined and the basic coordination geometries and architectures organized by hydrogen-bonds and pi-pi interactions also characterized. The substitute amine group at ortho-, meta-, and para-position of AB plays an important role to produce completely different coordination motif of these complexes, further, in all complexes, aromatic amines are not coordinated to Zn(II) atom. While two different types of coordination modes of the carboxylate O atoms are present in these complexes: one mode consists of the usual Zn-O bond lengths (2.009(2)-2.251(2) A) in complex 1, 2 and 3; another consists of a very long Zn-O bond lengths (2.422(2) A) in complex 1. Each of the complexes has the characteristic UV absorption bands around 250-310 nm region, and the intense fluorescence band at near 325 nm.     

Speciation of the curium(III) ion in aqueous solution: a combined study by quantum chemistry and molecular dynamics simulation

The structures of aquo complexes of the curium(III) ion have been systematically studied using quantum chemical and molecular dynamics (MD) methods. The first hydration shell of the Cm3+ ion has been calculated using density functional theory (DFT), with and without inclusion of the conductor-like polarizable continuum medium (CPCM) model of solvation. The calculated results indicate that the primary hydration number of Cm3+ is nine, with a Cm-O bond distance of 2.47-2.48 A. The calculated bond distances and the hydration number are in excellent agreement with available experimental data. The inclusion of a complete second hydration shell of Cm3+ has been investigated using both DFT and MD methods. The presence of the second hydration shell has significant effects on the primary coordination sphere, suggesting that the explicit inclusion of second-shell effects is important for understanding the nature of the first shell. The calculated results indicate that 21 water molecules can be coordinated in the second hydration shell of the Cm3+ ion. MD simulations within the hydrated-ion model suggest that the second-shell water molecules exchange with the bulk solvent with a lifetime of 161 ps.     

Cd(II), Zn(II), and Pd(II) complexes of an isoindoline pincer ligand: consequences of steric crowding

The sterically crowded isoindoline pincer ligand, 6'-MeLH, prepared by condensation of 4-methyl-2-aminopyridine and phthalonitrile, exhibits very different reaction chemistry with Cd2+, Zn2+, and Pd2+. Three different ligand coordination modes are reported, each dependent upon choice of metal ion. This isoindoline binds to Cd2+ as a charge-neutral, zwitterionic, bidentate ligand using imine and pyridine nitrogen atoms to form the eight-coordinate fluxional complex, Cd(6'-MeLH)2(NO3)2. In the presence of Zn2+, however, loss of a pyridine arm occurs through solvolysis and tetrahedrally coordinated complexes are formed with coordination of pyrrole and pyridine nitrogen atoms. Reaction with Pd2+ produces the highly distorted, square planar complex Pd(6'-MeL)Cl in which a deprotonated isoindoline anion coordinates as a tridentate pyridinium NNC pincer ligand.     

Be(II) in aqueous solution--an extended ab initio QM/MM MD study

An ab initio quantum mechanical/molecular mechanical (QM/MM) molecular dynamics (MD) simulation at double-zeta restricted Hartree-Fock (RHF) level was performed at 293.15 K, including first and second hydration shell in the QM region to study the structural and dynamical properties of the Be(II)-hydrate in aqueous solution. The first tetrahedrally arranged hydration shell, with the four water molecules located at a mean Be-O distance of 1.61 A, is highly inert with respect to ligand exchange processes. The second shell, however, consisting in average of approximately 9.2 water ligands at a mean Be-O distance of 3.7 A and the third shell at a mean Be-O distance of 5.4 A with approximately 19 ligands rapidly exchange water molecules between them and with the bulk, respectively. Other structural parameters such as radial and angular distribution functions (RDF and ADF) and tilt- and theta-angle distributions were also evaluated. The dynamics of the hydrate were studied in terms of ligand mean residence times (MRTs) and librational and vibrational frequencies. The mean residence times for second shell and third shell ligands were determined as 4.8 and 3.2 ps, respectively. The Be-O stretching frequency of 658 cm(-1), associated with a force constant of 147 N m(-1) could be overestimated but it certainly reflects the exceptional stability of the ion-ligand bond in the first hydration shell.     

两个基于间苯二甲酸和咪唑衍生物Zn(Ⅱ)配位聚合物的合成、晶体结构和电化学性能

Structure of 3,3′-bis-(tribromogermyl)propionic acid according to the results of ab initio calculations

The nonempirical quantum-chemical calculations of the molecule of 3,3-bis-(tribromogermyl)-propionic acid by RHF/6-31G(d) and MP2/6-31G(d) methods were performed with full optimization of its geometry. The results of calculations by the two methods do not differ fundamentally. The calculations showed that two forms of this molecule are stable: one containing two tetrahedrally coordinated Ge atom and another with one tetrahedrally coordinated and one pentacoordinated Ge atom. The first form is typical of the crystalline state of the matter, the second is the most energy-effective for the gas. At the intramolecular interaction between the carbonyl oxygen atom and the Ge atom in the second form leading to its pentacoordination the corresponding Ge-Br bonds are polarized in such a way that the negative charges on the Br atoms and a positive charge on the Ge increase. No transfer of electron density from the oxygen to the germanium was revealed.

Complexes of 3.6 kDa maltodextrin with some metals

Preparation of magnesium, lanthanum, and bismuth(III) complexes of 3.6 kDa maltodextrin and some properties of the resulting materials are presented. The metal derivatives contain metals bound to the oxygen atoms of the hydroxyl groups of maltodextrin. Additionally, the metal atoms are coordinated to the hydroxyl groups of the D-glucose units of the macroligand. Such coordination stabilized the metal - oxygen bond against hydrolysis, even in boiling water. The presence of magnesium and lanthanum atoms increased the thermal stability of maltodextrin, whereas bismuth atoms decreased it.     

Size discrimination in the coordination chemistry of an isoindoline pincer ligand with CdII and ZnII

The reactions of Cd2+ and Zn2+ with the pyridine-arm isoindoline ligand 4'-MeLH = 1,3-bis[2-(4-methylpyridyl)imino]isoindoline produced the series of octahedrally coordinated complexes M(4'-MeL)2, [M(4'-MeLH)2]2+, and [M(4'-MeL)(4'-MeLH)]+. The complexes M(4'-MeL)2 resulted from reactions of the respective metal perchlorates with deprotonated ligand, whereas the complexes [M(4'-MeLH)2](ClO4)2 resulted from reactions with ligand in the absence of added base. The mixed-ligand complexes [M(4'-MeL)(4'-MeLH)]+ were generated in solution by reactions of equimolar quantities of M(4'-MeL)2 and [M(4'-MeLH)2]2+. Whereas [Cd(4'-MeL)(4'-MeLH)]+ is stable in solution, [Zn(4'-MeL)(4'-MeLH)]+ converts to and establishes equilibrium with the tetrahedrally coordinated, trinuclear complex [Zn3(4'-MeL)4]2+. The complexes Cd(4'-MeL)2 (1), Zn(4'-MeL)2 (2), and [Cd(4'-MeL)(4'-MeLH)]ClO4 (5) were characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, with the latter complex being shown to contain 4'-MeLH coordinated as a protonated iminium zwitterionic ligand. The [M(4'-MeLH)2]2+ and [M(4'-MeL)(4'-MeLH)]+ complexes are tautomeric in solution because of the shuttling of the iminium protons between imine N atoms. The rate of prototropic tautomerism in [Cd(4'-MeLH)2]+ was followed by 1H NMR spectroscopy. Over the temperature range 276-312 K, a linear Eyring plot with the activation parameters DeltaG++ = 16.0 +/- 0.1 kcal/mol, DeltaH++ = 2.9 +/- 0.1 kcal/mol, and DeltaS++ = -44.0 +/- 0.3 cal/mol.K was obtained.     

Surface complexation of Pb(II) on amorphous iron oxide and manganese oxide: spectroscopic and time studies

Hydrous Fe and Mn oxides (HFO and HMO) are important sinks for heavy metals and Pb(II) is one of the more prevalent metal contaminants in the environment. In this work, Pb(II) sorption to HFO (Fe(2)O(3) x nH(2)O, n=1-3) and HMO (MnO(2)) surfaces has been studied with EXAFS: mononuclear bidentate surface complexes were observed on FeO(6) (MnO(6)) octahedra with PbO distance of 2.25-2.35 Angstrom and PbFe(Mn) distances of 3.29-3.36 (3.65-3.76) Angstrom. These surface complexes were invariant of pH 5 and 6, ionic strength 2.8 x 10(-3) to 1.5 x 10(-2), loading 2.03 x 10(-4) to 9.1 x 10(-3) mol Pb/g, and reaction time up to 21 months. EXAFS data at the Fe K-edge revealed that freshly precipitated HFO exhibits short-range order; the sorbed Pb(II) ions do not substitute for Fe but may inhibit crystallization of HFO. Pb(II) sorbed to HFO through a rapid initial uptake ( approximately 77%) followed by a slow intraparticle diffusion step ( approximately 23%) resulting in a surface diffusivity of 2.5 x 10(-15) cm(2)/s. Results from this study suggest that mechanistic investigations provide a solid basis for successful adsorption modeling and that inclusion of intraparticle surface diffusion may lead to improved geochemical transport depiction.     

Trinuclear Zn(II) and Cu(II) homo and heterotrimetallic complexes involving D-glucopyranosyl and biscarboxylate bridging ligands. A substrate binding model of xylose isomerases

Reactions of MCl(2).nH(2)O with N,N'-bis(D-glucopyranosyl)-1,4,7-triazacyclononane ((D-Glc)(2)-tacn), which was formed from D-glucose and 1,4,7-triazacyclononane (tacn) in situ, afforded a series of mononuclear divalent metal complexes with two beta-D-glucopyranosyl moieties, [M((D-Glc)(2)-tacn)Cl]Cl (M = Zn (11), Cu (12), Ni (13), Co (14)). Complexes 11-14 were characterized by analytical and spectroscopic measurements and X-ray crystallography and were found to have a distorted octahedral M(II) center ligated by the pentacoordinate N-glycoside ligand, (beta-D-glucopyranosyl)(2)-tacn, and a chloride anion. Each D-glucose moiety is tethered to the metal center through the beta-N-glycosidic bond with tacn and additionally coordinated via the C-2 hydroxyl group, resulting in a lambda-gauche five-membered chelate ring. When L-rhamnose (6-deoxy-L-mannose) was used instead of D-glucose, the nickel(II) complex with two beta-L-rhamnopyranosyl moieties, [Ni((D-Man)(2)-tacn)(MeOH)]Cl(2) (15), was obtained and characterized by an X-ray analysis. Reactions of 11 (M = Zn) with [Zn(XDK)(H(2)O)] (21) or [Cu(XDK)(py)(2)] (22) (H(2)XDK = m-xylylenediamine bis(Kemp's triacid imide)) yielded homo and heterotrimetallic complexes formulated as [Zn(2)M'((D-Glc)(2)-tacn)(2)(XDK)]Cl(2) (M' = Zn (31), Cu (32)). The similar reactions of 12 (M = Cu) with complex 21 or 22 afforded [Cu(2)M'((D-Glc)(2)-tacn)(2)(XDK)]Cl(2) (M' = Cu (33), Zn (34)). An X-ray crystallographic study revealed that complexes 31 and 34 have either Zn(II)(3) or Cu(II)Zn(II)Cu(II) trimetallic centers bridged by two carboxylate groups of XDK and two D-glucopyranosyl residues. The M...M' separations are 3.418(3)-3.462(3) A (31) and 3.414(1)-3.460(1) A (34), and the M...M'...M angles are 155.18(8) degrees (31) and 161.56(6) degrees (34). The terminal metal ions are octahedrally coordinated by the (D-Glc)(2)-tacn ligand through three nitrogen atoms of tacn, two oxygen atoms of the C-2 hydroxyl groups of the carbohydrates, and a carboxylate oxygen atom of XDK ligand. The central metal ions sit in a distorted octahedral environment ligated by four oxygen atoms of the carbohydrate residues in the (D-Glc)(2)-tacn ligands and two carboxylate oxygen atoms of XDK. The deprotonated beta-D-glucopyranosyl unit at the C-2 hydroxyl group bridges the terminal and central ions with the C-2 mu-alkoxo group, with the C-1 N-glycosidic amino and the C-3 hydroxyl groups coordinating to each metal center. Complexes 31-34 are the first examples of metal complexes in which D-glucose units act as bridging ligands. These structures could be very useful substrate binding models of xylose or glucose isomerases, which promote D-glucose D-fructose isomerization by using divalent dimetallic centers bridged by a glutamate residue.
