Topotactic synthesis of Co3O4 nanoboxes from Co(OH)2 nanoflakes

Hollow nanocubes of spinel Co₃O₄ with the dimension of 20 nm were successfully prepared via a facile and reproducible solvothermal route. The structure and morphology of Co₃O₄ nanoboxes were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and high-resolution transmission electron microscope (HRTEM) techniques. And a possible growth mechanism of Co₃O₄ nanoboxes were suggested that solid Co₃O₄ nanocubes nucleate in-situ and grow epitaxially from hexagonal β-Co(OH)₂ precursors with the structural matching relationship of [0 0 1] β-Co(OH)₂//[1 1 1] Co₃O₄, and then solid Co₃O₄ nanocubes gradually hollow and convert to single-crystal nanoboxes owing to Ostwald ripening.     

Facile Synthesis of Leaf-like Cu(OH)2 and Its Conversion into CuO with Nanopores

Leaf-like Cu(OH)₂ single crystals were synthesized via the controlled emulsion interface method using Span80 (sorbitan monooleate) as the stabilizer of the emulsion system. CuO products with nanopores could be simply obtained by the dehydration of Cu(OH)₂, while maintaining the strip-shaped architecture. The phase structures and morphologies were measured by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectra, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Experimental results showed that Cu(OH)₂ microleaves were single crystals and the growth direction seemed to be in [111] crystal plane of the orthorhombic Cu(OH)₂. The formation of the nanopores should be attributed to the water loss of the transformation from Cu(OH)₂ to CuO. The formation process of Cu(OH)₂ was investigated by taking TEM images at different stages of the reaction. The formed nanoparticles began to rearrange to form nanorods and microleaves possibly via edge-by-edge and side-by-side oriented-attachments because of the formation of larger crystals greatly reducing the interfacial energy. Besides, CuO microarchitectures exhibit blue shifts in UV-Vis spectra and possess larger band gaps compared with those of bulk crystals.     

叶状Cu(OH)2的合成及其向带有纳米孔的CuO的转化

通过乳液界面反应法, 利用以Span80(sorbitan monooleate)作为稳定剂的乳液体系控制合成了叶状Cu(OH)2单晶. 通过热处理, 可以得到表面有纳米孔的CuO, 且保持了原有的叶状形貌. 通过X射线衍射(XRD)、Fourier红外光谱(FTIR)、扫描电镜(SEM)和透射电镜(TEM)观测了其形貌和结构特征. 实验结果表明, 叶状Cu(OH)2为单晶, 且沿[111]晶面定向生长. 孔的形成是由于相转变过程中Cu(OH)2失去H2O分子所致. 通过观测不同反应时间产物的形貌, 深入探讨了叶状Cu(OH)2纳米结构的组装机理. 整个组装过程是由能量高的颗粒状纳米粒子通过端部取向连接定向生长而得到能量相对较低的叶状结构. 并且得到的CuO的紫外光谱相对于其块体材料发生了蓝移, 显示出比较大的禁带宽度.     

[Ni(H2O)4]3[U(OH,H2O)(UO2)8O12(OH)3], crystal structure and comparison with uranium minerals with U3O8-type sheets

The new U(VI) compound, [Ni(H₂O)₄]₃[U(OH,H₂O)(UO₂)₈O₁₂(OH)₃], was synthesized by mild hydrothermal reaction of uranyl and nickel nitrates. The crystal-structure was solved in the P-1 space group, a=8.627(2), b=10.566(2), c=12.091(4) Å and α=110.59(1), β=102.96(2), γ=105.50(1)°, R=0.0539 and wR=0.0464 from 3441 unique observed reflections and 151 parameters. The structure of the title compound is built from sheets of uranium polyhedra closely related to that in β-U₃O₈. Within the sheets [(UO₂)(OH)O₄] pentagonal bipyramids share equatorial edges to form chains, which are cross-linked by [(UO₂)O₄] and [UO₄(H₂O)(OH)] square bipyramids and through hydroxyl groups shared between [(UO₂)(OH)O₄] pentagonal bipyramids. The sheets are pillared by sharing the apical oxygen atoms of the [(UO₂)(OH)O₄] pentagonal bipyramids with the oxygen atoms of [NiO₂(H₂O)₄] octahedral units. That builds a three-dimensional framework with water molecules pointing towards the channels. On heating [Ni(H₂O)₄]₃[U(OH,H₂O)(UO₂)₈O₁₂(OH)₃] decomposes into NiU₃O₁₀.

Ferromagnetic exchange coupling in phosphonato-bridged dinuclear copper(II) compound with monoethyl (pyridyn-2-ylmethyl)phosphonate ligand (2-mpmpe): Cu2(2-mpmpe)2(H2O)2(NO3)2

The interaction of diethyl (pyridyn-2-ylmethyl)phosphonate (2-pmpe) with Cu(NO₃)₂ · 6H₂O leads to a partial hydrolysis of the starting ligand and formation of the compound of the formula Cu₂(2-mpmpe)₂(H₂O)₂(NO₃)₂, where 2-mpmpe = monoethyl (pyridyn-2-ylmethyl)phosphonate. The crystal and molecular structure of a copper(II) compound was determined by single X-ray diffraction method. Its structure consists of five-coordinated in distorted square planar geometry (CuNO₄ chromophore) copper(II) ions doubly bridged by OPO from phosphonate. The Cu?Cu distance is 4.69 Å. The crystal packing is determined by the interdinuclear hydrogen bond system, which leads to a three-dimensional (3D) H-bonds network. The compound was characterized by infrared, ligand field, EPR spectroscopy, and magnetic studies. The magnetic properties of the title compound investigated over the 1.8–300 K, revealed the occurrence of a weak ferromagnetic coupling through phosphonate bridge (J = 1.86 cm⁻¹) and interdimer superexchange coupling through H-bond network (zJ′ = −0.17 cm⁻¹). Spectroscopic and magnetic properties are presented in the light of crystal structure.

The reactions of lanthanide tris(borohydrides) Ln(BH₄)₃(thf)₃ (Ln = Sm or Nd) with 2 equiv. of lithium N,N′-diisopropyl-N′-bis(trimethylsilyl)guanidinate in toluene produced the [(Me₃Si)₂NC(NPrⁱ)₂]Ln(BH₄)₂Li(thf)₂ complexes (Ln = Sm or Nd), which were isolated in 57 and 42% yields, respectively, by recrystallization from hexane. X-ray diffraction experiments and NMR and IR spectroscopic studies demonstrated that the reactions afford monomeric ate complexes, in which the lanthanide and lithium atoms are linked to each other by two bridging borohydride groups.

Selective anion-exchange intercalation of isomeric benzoate anions into the layered double hydroxide [LiAl2(OH)6]Cl·H2O

All the geometric isomers of the benzoate derivatives, XC₆H₄CO₂⁻ (X=F, Cl, Br, OH, OCH₃, NO₂, CO₂CH₃, NH₂, N(CH₃)₂) can be intercalated into the layered double hydroxide [LiAl₂(OH)₆]Cl·H₂O in 50% (v/v) water/ethanol solution at 80 °C to give fully anion-exchanged first stage intercalation compounds [LiAl₂(OH)₆]G·yH₂O (G=a substituted benzoate). The observed interlayer separations of the intercalates vary from 14.3 Å for [LiAl₂(OH)₆](4-nitrobenzoate)·2H₂O to 20.6 Å for [LiAl₂(OH)₆](3-dimethylaminobenzoate)·3H₂O. Competitive intercalation studies using mixtures of isomeric benzoates showed that the 4-isomers and 2-isomers are the most and the least preferred anions, respectively. Comparing the calculated dipole moments of the anions with the observed isomeric intercalation preferences suggests that dipole moment may be a good general index for the preference; however, it should be remembered that the bulkiness and electronegativity of the other substituent could be very important factors that affect the preferential intercalation.     

[COH(NH2)2]2[Cu(pic)2(ClO4)2]的合成与晶体结构

The title compound was synthesized by reaction of Cu(ClO₄)₂， picolinic acid and carbamide in C₂H₅OH/CH₃CN solution， and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. It crystallizes in the orthorhombic system， space group Pbca with a=14.0481(8)， b=9.0130(5)， c=18.626(1)?， V=2358.3(2)?³， Z=4， D_x=1.771g·cm^-3， μ=1.235mm^-1 and F(000)=1276. The final R factor is 0.0440 for 1434 observed reflections. The X-ray analysis revealed that the copper(Ⅱ) atom is coordinated by two picolinic ligands in the equatorial plane， while the two oxygen atoms of perchlorate occupy the axial positions of octahedron with lengthened Cu-O distances， resulting in a 4+2 elongated octahedral environment. In the compound， there also exist two protonated carbamide cations for charge balance. CCDC： 195354.
