Nanostructuring in the process of the formation of mixed-anion compounds: Rare-earth borogermanates, germanophosphates, and borotungstates

Specific features of the textures (the preferred orientation of the nanometer building blocks) in the structures of mixed-anion compounds—rare-earth borogermanates, germanophosphates, and borotungstates that arise from the acid-base interaction in the Ln₂O₃-B₂O₃-GeO₂, Ln₂O₃-GeO₂-P₂O₅, and Ln₂O₃-B₂O₃-WO₃ systems (Ln = La-Gd)—have been studied. Based on characteristic texture traits, the mixed-anion compounds of early rare-earth elements can be divided into three groups: (i) Ln₂O₃: E_xO_y > 1, (ii) Ln₂O₃: E_xO_y = 1, and (iii) Ln₂O₃: E_xO_y < 1. Because of the dominant structural effect of the basic oxide Ln₂O₃ in the compounds of the first group, the structures of Nd₁₄O₈(BO₃)₆(GeO₄)₂ and Pr₁₁O₁₀(GeO₄)(PO₄)₃ are composed of infinite [LnO_n] bands and layers and discrete groups [EO_m] located in the interband and interlayer spaces. The dominant structural effect of the acid oxides [E_xO_y] in the compounds of the third group leads to the appearance of ring textures composed of [LnO_n], as well as to the appearance of chains and networks composed of [EO_m], in the structures of Ln(BGeO₅) and Ln(BO₂)(WO₄).

Spinel, YbFe2O4, and Yb2Fe3O7 types of structures for compounds in the In2O3 and Sc2O3---A2O3---BO systems [A: Fe, Ga, or Al; B: Mg, Mn, Fe, Ni, Cu, or Zn] at temperatures over 1000°C

In the Sc₂O₃---Ga₂O₃---CuO, Sc₂O₃---Ga₂O₃---ZnO, and Sc₂O₃---Al₂O₃---CuO systems, ScGaCuO₄, ScGaZnO₄, and ScAlCuO₄ with the YbFe₂O₄-type structure and Sc₂Ga₂CuO₇ with the Yb₂Fe₃O₇-type structure were obtained. In the In₂O₃---A₂O₃---BO systems (A: Fe, Ga, or Al; B: Mg, Mn, Fe, Ni, or Zn), InGaFeO₄, InGaNiO₄, and InFe³⁺MgO₄ with the spinel structure, InGaZnO₄, InGaMgO₄, and InAlCuO₄ with the YbFe₂O₄-type structure, and In₂Ga₂MnO₇ and In₂Ga₂ZnO₇ with the Yb₂Fe₃O₇-type structure were obtained. InGaMnO₄ and InFe₂O₄ had both the YbFe₂O₄-type and spinel-type structures. The revised classification for the crystal structures of AB₂O₄ compounds is presented, based upon the coordination numbers of constituent A and B cations.     

Equilibrium phase behavior of aqueous two-phase systems containing 17R4/L64 and citrates

The cloud points (CPs) of the copolymers 17R4 and L64 were first measured, and then the effects of salts ((NH₄)₃C₆H₅O₇, K₃C₆H₅O₇) on 17R4 and L64 were researched. After finishing the work described above, the temperature (278.15, 283.15, and 288.15) K of aqueous two-phase systems was determined, which consist of 17R4-(NH₄)₃C₆H₅O₇, 17R4-K₃C₆H₅O₇, L64-(NH₄)₃C₆H₅O₇, and L64-K₃C₆H₅O₇. Finally, the liquid–liquid equilibrium (LLE) data of binodal curve and the tie line for 17R4-(NH₄)₃C₆H₅O₇ aqueous two- phase systems (ATPSs) 17R4-K₃C₆H₅O₇ ATPSs, L64-(NH₄)₃C₆H₅O₇ ATPSs, and L64-K₃C₆H₅O₇ ATPSs were obtained. Nonlinear fitting of the empirical equation was used for making the diagram. The results showed that the change in the size of the two-phase areas increases with the increase of temperature. The capacity of the salts to induce phase segregation follows the Hofmeister series, that is, K₃C₆H₅O₇?>?(NH₄)₃C₆H₅O₇. In addition, the findings also showed that the phase separation ability of 17R4 is better than that of L64.     

Reactivity in The Solid State Between Ag2S and Ag2CrO4

Reactivity, in the solid state between Ag₂S and Ag₂CrO₄, was investigated by DTA, XRD and IR methods. It was found that, according to a composition of an initial Ag₂S/Ag₂CrO₄ mixture, the products of a reaction of Ag₂S with Ag₂ CrO₄ can be: solid solution with Ag₂CrO₄ structure (Ag₂Cr_1–xS_xO₄) and AgCrO₂; or solid solution Ag₂Cr_1–xS_xO₄, Ag₂SO₄, AgCrO₂ and metallic silver; or Ag₂S, β-Ag₈S₄O₄, Ag, AgCrO₂, Ag₂SO₄ and Ag₂Cr_1–xS_xO₄ solid solution. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Ternäre Halogenide der Seltenen Erden vom Typ A2MX5 (A = K,In, NH4, Rb,Cs; X = Cl,Br, I)

Ternary Rare-Earth Halides of the A₂MX₅ Type (A = K, In, NH₄, Rb, Cs; X = Cl, Br, I) Ternary rare-earth (=M) chlorides, bromides, and iodides In₂MCl₅, (NH₄)₂MCl₅, Rb₂MCl₅, Cs₂MCl₅, CsRbMCl₅, K₂MBr₅, Rb₂MBr₅, K₂MI₅, and Rb₂MI₅ have been synthesized. Single crystals of In₂PrCl₅, Rb₂PrCl₅, K₂PrBr₅, and K₂PrI₅ were grown and the structures refined. The other halides were characterized by x-ray powder patterns. They are isotypic either with K₂PrCl₅(orthorhombic, Pnma, Z = 4, hexagonal arrangement of chains of edge-connected polyhedra [PrX₇]) or with Cs₂DyCl₅ (orthorhombic, Pbnm, Z = 4, hexagonal arrangement of cis-corner-connected octahedra [DyCl₆]) which may be discriminated in structure field diagrams. The thermal expansion was investigated für Cs₂LuCl₅ and Rb₂PrX₅ (X = Cl, Br, I).     

Reactions of the nitrate radical with a series of reduced organic sulphur compounds in air

A 480 L evacuable reaction chamber, equipped with FT-IR spectroscopy on-line and ion chromatography off-line, has been used to study the gas phase reaction between the nitrate radical, NO₃, and the reduced organic sulphur compounds CH₃CH₂SH, (CH₃CH₂)₂S, (CH₃CH₂)₂S₂, and CH₃CH₂SCH₃ in air. The products CH₃CH₂SO₃H, SO₂, H₂SO₄, CH₃CHO, and CH₃CH₂ONO₂ were identified and quantified in the reactions of the first three compounds, CH₃CH₂SH, (CH₃CH₂)₂S, and (CH₃CH₂)₂S₂. The reaction products were CH₃CH₂SO₃H, CH₃SO₃H, SO₂, H₂SO₄, CH₃CHO, and CH₂O in the reaction of CH₃CH₂SCH₃. On the basis of identified reaction products and intermediates observed in the infrared spectra, mechanisms are proposed for the reactions between the NO₃ radical and the four reduced organic sulphur compounds. The results of this study, together with those from previous experiments performed in this laboratory on CH₃SCH₃, CH₃SH, and CH₃SSCH₃ lead to the conclusion that all these species, in the reaction with the NO₃ radical, follow a similar degradation mechanism producing SO₂, H₂SO₄, R? SO₃H, R? CHO, and R? CH₂ONO₂, as the main reaction products. The inital step of the reaction of NO₃ with R? S? R and R? S? H type (R = CH₃, CH₂CH₃) reduced organic sulphur compounds was found to be H-atom abstraction, probably after the formation of an initial adduct. For the reaction between NO₃ and R? S? S? R type compounds, evidence for an addition-decomposition reaction, as the initial steps, was obtained. R? S·, R? S(O)·, and R? S(O)₂· appear to be formed as intermediates in all the reactions. © John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

Abläufe der Ammonolysen der Ammoniumhexafluorometallate des Aluminiums,Galliums und Indiums, (NH4)3MF6 (M = Al,Ga, In)

The Courses of the Ammonolyses of the Ammonium Hexafluorometalates of Aluminum, Gallium, and Indium, (NH₄)₃MF₆ (M = Al, Ga, In) The courses of the ammonolysis reactions of the ammonium hexafluorometalates (NH₄)₃MF₆ (M = Al, Ga, In) were investigated with the aid of in‐situ powder diffractometry and differential thermal analysis. Under these conditions, the reaction of (NH₄)₃AlF₆ with gaseous ammonia yields at about 360 °C AlF₃ via the intermediates NH₄AlF₄, Al(NH₃)₂F₃ and Al(NH₃)F₃. The ammonolysis of (NH₄)₃GaF₆ produces GaN at about 400 °C. Depending upon the actual reaction conditions, the intermediates NH₄GaF₄ and Ga(NH₃)F₃ as well as their ammonia adducts NH₄GaF₄ · NH₃ and Ga(NH₃)₂F₃ and the amide‐ammoniate Ga(NH₃)(NH₂)F₂ are observed. In the case of (NH₄)₃InF₆ the intermediates (NH₄)₃InF₆ · NH₃ and In(NH₃)F₃ may exist; there are also indications for the reduction of In(III) to In(I) and for the existence of In(NH₃)₂F and InF as products of the ammonolysis of (NH₄)₃InF₆.     

Zur Kenntnis der Dialkalimetalldichalkogenide β-Na2S2, K2S2, α-Rb2S2, β-Rb2S2, K2Se2, Rb2Se2, α-K2Te2, β-K2Te2 und Rb2Te2

On Dialkali Metal Dichalcogenides β-Na₂S₂, K₂S₂, α-Rb₂S₂, β-Rb₂S₂, K₂Se₂, Rb₂Se₂, α-K₂Te₂, β-K₂Te₂ and Rb₂Te₂ The first presentation of pure samples of α- and β-Rb₂S₂, α- and β-K₂Te₂, and Rb₂Te₂ is described. Using single crystals of K₂S₂ and K₂Se₂, received by ammonothermal synthesis, the structure of the Na₂O₂ type and by using single crystals of β-Na₂S₂ and β-K₂Te₂ the Li₂O₂ type structure will be refined. By combined investigations with temperature-dependent Guinier-, neutron diffraction-, thermal analysis, and Raman-spectroscopy the nature of the monotropic phase transition from the Na₂O₂ type to the Li₂O₂ type will be explained by means of the examples α-/β-Na₂S₂ and α-/β-K₂Te₂. A further case of dimorphic condition as well as the monotropic phase transition of α- and β-Rb₂S₂ is presented. The existing areas of the structure fields of the dialkali metal dichalcogenides are limited by the model of the polar covalence.     

Acetylenic derivatives of metal carbonyls of the triad Fe,Ru, Os—XI Mass spectra of some binuclear complexes

The mass spectra of the following acetylenic derivatives of iron, ruthenium and osmium carbonyls are reported: the iron compounds Fe₂(CO)₆[C₂(C₆H₅)s₂]₂, Fe₂(CO)₆[C₂(CH₃)₂]₂ and Fe₂(CO)₆[C₂(C₂H₅)₂]₂, the ruthenium compounds Ru₂(CO)₆[C₂(C₆H₅)₂]₂, and Ru₂(CO)₆[C₂(CH₃)₂]₂ and the osmium compounds Os₂(CO)₆[C₂(C₆H₅)₂]₂, Os₂(CO)₆[C₂HC₆H₅]₂ and Os₂(CO)₆[C₂(CH₃)₂]₂. Iron compounds exhibit breakdown schemes where binuclear, mononuclear and hydrocarbon ions are present. On the other hand, ruthenium and osmium compounds fragment in a similar way and give rise to singly and doubly charged binuclear ions. Phenylic derivatives of ruthenium and osmium also give weak triply charged ions. The results are discussed in terms of relative strengths of the metal-metal and metal-carbon bonds.     

Transmetallation reactions involving phenylenemercurials

When heated with Group V and Group VI elements, the phenylenemercurials (C₆H₄Hg)₃, (C₆F₄Hg)₃ and (C₆Cl₄Hg)₃ form heterocycles of formulae (M₂(C₆X₄)₃ and M′₂(C₆X₄)₂ where M = As, Sb, Bi and M′ = S, Se, Te. The compounds Te₂(C₆Cl₄)₂ and M₂(C₆Cl₄)₃ (M = As, Sb, Bi) were also obtained by heating the elements with 1,2-I₂C₆Cl₄, which was prepared by mercuration of 1,2-H₂C₆Cl₄ followed by iododemercuration. Octachlorothianthrene has been obtained by heating sulphur with Te₂(C₆Cl₄)₂, C₆Cl₆ or C₆Cl₅I, and from the reaction between 1,2-H₂C₆Cl₄, AlCl₃, and S₂Cl₂.     

Oxalate-2-ethanolamine complexes of some bivalent cations (Mn,Co, Ni,Cu, Zn and Cd)

On the refluxing ofM(II) oxalate (M=Mn, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn or Cd) and 2-ethanolamine in chloroform, the following complexes were obtained: MnC₂O₄·HOCH₂CH₂NH₂·H₂O, CoC₂O₄·2HOCH₂CH₂NH₂, Ni₂(C₂O₄)₂·5HOCH₂CH₂NH₂·3H₂O, Cu₂(C₂O₄)₂·5HOCH₂CH₂NH₂, Zn₂(C₂O₄)₂·5HOCH₂CH₂NH₂·2H₂O and Cd₂(C₂O₄)₂·HOCH₂CH₂NH₂·2H₂O. Following the reaction ofM(II) oxalate with 2-ethanolamine in the presence of ethanolammonium oxalate, a compound with the empirical formula ZnC₂O₄·HOCH₂CH₂NH₂·2H₂O¹ was isolated. The complexes were identified by using elemental analysis, X-ray powder diffraction patterns, IR spectra, and thermogravimetric and differential thermal analysis. The IR spectra and X-ray powder diffraction patterns showed that the complexes obtained were not isostructural. Their thermal decompositions, in the temperature interval between 20 and about 900°C, also take place in different ways, mainly through the formation of different amine complexes. The DTA curves exhibit a number of thermal effects.

通过高温固相法对醋酸镧（C₆H₉O₆La·xH₂O）与高钼酸铵（（NH₄）₆Mo₇O₂₄·4H₂O）在一定条件下热解制备非Pt催化剂La₂Mo₂O₇（La₂O₃-2MoO₂）。进一步采用2种方法将La₂Mo₂O₇与多壁碳纳米管（MWCNTs）进行复合,一种是将La₂Mo₂O₇喷涂到MWCNTs表层之上得到La₂Mo₂O₇/MWCNTs,另一种是将两者均匀混合掺杂得到La₂Mo₂O₇@MWCNTs,再将上述2种复合材料应用于染料敏化太阳能电池对电极进行相应研究。通过扫描电子显微镜（SEM）表征了复合催化材料的微观形貌,X射线衍射（XRD）确定了微观结构。采用电流密度-光电压曲线、循环伏安,交流阻抗以及塔菲尔极化分析了材料的光电性能。实验结果表明在电解液I₃^-/I^-中,基于La₂Mo₂O₇/MWCNTs与La₂Mo₂O₇@MWCNTs的对电极,相同的条件下在光电池中获得的光电转换效率分别为6.09%和4.84%,明显高于MWCNTs的3.94%和La₂Mo₂O₇的0.87%。电极性能的提高可归因于La₂Mo₂O₇复合催化剂相对大的比表面积和高导电性。     

Über einige Eigenschaften von Zinkphosphiten mit Berücksichtigung ihrer Wasserstoffbrückenbindung

Zinc phosphites ZnPHO₃·2.5 H₂O, Zn₂H₂P₃H₃O₉·H₂O, Zn₃H₄P₅H₅O₁₅·1.5 H₂O, ZnH₂H₂P₂H₂O₆ have been studied at higher temperatures and by X-rays and molecular spectroscopy. Hydrates ZnPHO₃·2.5 H₂O and Zn₂H₂P₃H₃O₉·H₂O, when heated, yield an anhydrous salt. Thermal decomposition of dihydrogen triorthophosphite and tetrahydrogen pentaorthophosphite leads, before oxidation of the anion, to a mixture of zinc phosphite ZnPHO₃ and dihydrogen diorthophosphite ZnH₂P₂H₂O₆ and then after loss of water of constitution dihydrogen diorthophosphite converts to zinc diphosphite ZnP₂H₂O₅. The results of the thermal decomposition study were confirmed by X-ray investigation. Anhydrous zinc dihydrogen triorthophosphite Zn₂H₂P₃H₃O₉ and zinc diphosphite ZnP₂H₂O₅ were hitherto unknown. Infrared spectra confirmed the existence of hydrogen bonding in all the phosphites studied and in the case of zinc phosphite ZnPHO₃·2.5 H₂O exhibited a symmetry decrease of the anion PHO₃ ^2– from the point group C_3v to C_s. In the crystal lattice of ZnPHO₃·2.5 H₂O hydrogen bonding by water molecules participates, with polyorthophosphites hydrogen bonding shares in the production of anions and in the case of their hydrates there is in addition hydrogen bonding by water molecules.

Water‐soluble and Halogen‐free Hexaammine Complexes of Metal Ions of Group 9 – Synthesis,Crystal Structures,and Vibrational Spectra

Reaction of [M(NH₃)₆]Cl₃ (M = Co, Rh, Ir) and [Ir(NH₃)₅(OH₂)]Cl₃ with (NH₄)₂C₂O₄ · H₂O in aqueous solution resulted in the isolation of [M(NH₃)₆]₂(C₂O₄)₃ · 4 H₂O and [Ir(NH₃)₅(OH₂)]₂(C₂O₄)₃ · 4 H₂O, respectively. The complexes have been characterized by X‐ray crystallography, IR and UV/VIS spectroscopy. The isomorphous compounds crystallize in the orthorhombic space group Pnnm (No. 58). Four molecules of crystal water are involved in an extended three‐dimensional hydrogen bonding network. The librational modes of the lattice water around 600 cm^–1 allow the characterization of [Ir(NH₃)₆]₂(C₂O₄)₃ · 4 H₂O and [Ir(NH₃)₅(OH₂)]₂(C₂O₄)₃ · 4 H₂O, respectively, by IR spectroscopy. The band around 600 cm^–1 shows a significant frequency shift in the IR spectra of the hexaammine and aquapentaammine complex of iridium(III) and, by that, a distinction is possible.     

Reactivity in the solid state between CoWO4 and RE2WO6 where RE = Sm, Eu, Gd

Reactivity in the solid state between CoWO₄ and some rare-earth metal tungstates RE₂WO₆ (RE = Sm, Eu, Gd) was investigated by the XRD method. Two families of new isostructural cobalt and rare-earth metal tungstates, Co₂RE₂W₃O₁₄ and CoRE₄W₃O₁₆, were synthesized. The Co₂RE₂W₃O₁₄ phases are formed by heating in air the CoWO₄ and RE₂WO₆ compounds mixed at the molar ratio 2:1, while the CoRE₄W₃O₁₆ phases are synthesized at the molar ratio of CoWO₄/RE₂WO₆ equals to 1:2. The Co₂RE₂W₃O₁₄ phases as well as the CoRE₄W₃O₁₆ compounds crystallize in the orthorhombic system. The Co₂RE₂W₃O₁₄ and CoRE₄W₃O₁₆ compound melt above 1150 °C. A melting manner of the Co₂RE₂W₃O₁₄ and CoRE₄W₃O₁₆ compounds was determined in an inert atmosphere. The formation of CoWO_4−x phase was observed during heating in an inert atmosphere.     

Alternativ-Liganden. III. Koordinatives verhalten von chelatliganden des typs me2XSi(Me2)CH2XMe2 (X  N und/oder P: Me  CH3)

Co-ordinative Properties of Chelating Ligands of the Type Me₂XSi(Me₂)CH₂XMe₂ (X ? N and/or P; Me ? CH₃) The reactions of the ligands L ? Me₂XSi(Me₂)CH₂XMe₂ (X ? N and/or P; Me ? CH₃) with M(CO)₆ and M(CO)₄norbor (norbor ? norbornadiene) (M ? Cr, Mo), respectively, yield derivatives of the types M(CO)₅L, M(CO)₄L, and M(CO)₄L₂, respectively. M(CO)₅L compounds are formed from the hexacarbonyls with Me₂NSiMe₂CH₂PMe₂, whereas the ligand Me₂NSiMe₂CH₂NMe₂ does not afford analogous derivatives under the same conditions. Even on substitution of the diene-ligand in M(CO)₄norbor by Me₂NSiMe₂CH₂PMe₂ the chelate complexes M(CO)₄NMe₂SiMe₂CH₂PMe₂ are not obtained, but the cis-disubstituted products M(CO)₄[PMe₂CH₂SiMe₂NMe₂]₂ with phosphorus acting as donor atom are produced. The ligands Me₂PSiMe₂CH₂XMe₂(X ? N, P) give the chelate complexes M(CO)₄PMe₂SiMe₂CH₂XMe₂ in high yields. The new compounds were identified by analytical and spectroscopic (PMR, IR, mass spectra) methods.
