A detailed spectroscopic and electrochemical study of a series of novel phenolate bound complexes, of general formulas [M(L-L)(2)(box)](PF(6)), where M is Os and Ru, L-L is 2,2-bipyridine or 2,2-biquinoline, and box is 2-(2-hydroxyphenyl)benzoxazole, is presented. The objectives of this study were to probe the origin of the LUMOs and HOMOs in these complexes, to elucidate the impact of metal and counter ligand on the electronic properties of the complex, and to identify the extent of orbital mixing in comparison with considerably more frequently studied quinoid complexes. [M(L-L)(2)(box)](PF(6)) complexes exhibit a rich electronic spectroscopy extending into the near infrared region and good photostability, making them potentially useful as solar sensitizers. Electrochemistry and spectroscopy indicate that the first oxidation is metal based and is associated with the M(II)/(III) redox states. A second oxidative wave, which is irreversible at slow scan rates, is associated with the phenolate ligand. The stabilities of the oxidized complexes are assessed using dynamic electrochemistry and discussed from the perspective of metal and counter ligand (LL) identity and follow the order of increasing stability [Ru(biq)(2)(box)](+) < [Ru(bpy)(2)(box)](+) < [Os(bpy)(2)(box)](+). Electronic and resonance Raman spectroscopy indicate that the lowest energy optical transition for the ruthenium complexes is a phenolate (pi) to L-L (pi) interligand charge-transfer transition (ILCT) suggesting the HOMO is phenolate based whereas electrochemical data suggest that the HOMO is metal based. This unusual lack of correlation between redox and spectroscopically assigned orbitals is discussed in terms of metal-ligand orbital mixing which appears to be most significant in the biquinoline based complex. 相似文献
The procedures and results of high resolution Mössbauer experiments performed with the 93.3 keV resonance in absorbers of67ZnO,67ZnS (both wurtzite and sphalerite structures),67ZnSe,67ZnTe and67ZnF2 are reported. An essentially linear dependence between the isomer shift and the Pauling electronegativity of the ligands was found. A value of r2=+11×10–3 fm2 is estimated. The Mössbauer parameters for both ZnS structures are equal within present limits of error. In particular, no quadrupole interaction was observed in the wurtzite modification. This indicates a nearly identical local symmetry at the Zn site in the two ZnS structures.Work supported by the Bundesministerium für Forschung und Technologie, Federal Republic of Germany and the Kernfor-schungszentrum Karlsruhe 相似文献
The Q-value for the 129Xe(3He, d)130Cs reaction is measured to be +5 ± 20 keV. By combining this result with the known neutron separation energy of 130Xe, we derive the total decay energy of 130Cs130Xe to beQEC = 2974 ± 20 keV. This value agrees well with two previous positron end-point measurements but disagrees with the corresponding value derived from the 1977 atomic mass evaluation. This has significance in testing the accuracy of the calculated ratio for 130Cs decay. The mass excess of 130Cs is derived to be ?86908 ± 14 keV. An excited state in 130Cs. was also identified at 121 ± 15 keV with J < 3 and positive parity. The Q-value for 136Xe(3He, d)137Cs was measured to be 1918 ± 12 keV. 相似文献
We have obtained three layered hybrid materials from the hydrothermal reaction of 4-cyclohexene-1,2-dicarboxylic acid with Co and Mn salts: Co(C(8)H(8)O(4))[1], Mn(H(2)O)(C(8)H(8)O(4))[2], and Mn(4)(H(2)O)(C(8)H(8)O(4))(4).0.3(H(2)O)[3]. The structures for all materials were solved by single-crystal XRD ([1]P1, a=4.805(2) A, b=6.650(3) A, c=12.960(6) A, alpha=98.285(7) degrees, beta=98.986(7) degrees, gamma=95.689(7) degrees, V= 401.6(3) A(3), R(1)= 0.0438; [2] P2(1)/c, a=11.151(2) A, b=11.330(2) A, c=7.6560(15) A, beta=108.813(3) degrees , V=915.6(3) A(3), R(1)=0.0412; [3] P1, a= 11.412(3) A, b=12.136(4) A, c=13.809(4) A, alpha=104.703(6) degrees, beta=103.207(6) degrees, gamma=92.468(5) degrees, V=1790.6(9) A(3), R(1)=0.1056). While all three structures are two-dimensional overall, the metal-oxygen-metal dimensionality within the layers varies from isolated metal atoms in the case of [1] to 1D ribbons of vertex sharing MnO(6) octahedra [2] and 2D arrays of edge- and vertex-sharing polyhedra in [3]. 相似文献
Transient emission spectroscopy has been used to probe the rate of photoinduced electron transfer between metal centres within a novel trimeric complex [[Os(bpy)2(bpe)2][Os(bpy)2Cl]2]4+, where bpy is 2,2'-bipyridyl and bpe is trans-1,2-bis-(4-pyridyl)ethylene. Transient emission experiments on the trimer, and on [Os(bpy)2 (bpe)2]2+ in which the [Os(bpy)2 Cl]+ quenching moieties are absent, reveal that the rate of photoinduced electron transfer (PET) across the bpe bridge is 1.3 +/- 0.1 x 10(8) s(-1). Investigations into the driving forces for oxidation and reduction of the electronically excited state within the trimer indicate that quenching of the [Os(bpy)2 (bpe)2]2+ centre within the trimer involves electron transfer from the [bpe Os(bpy)2 Cl]+ centres to the electronically excited state with a driving force of -0.3 eV. Monolayers of the complex, [Os(bpy)2 bpe pyridine]2+, have been formed by spontaneous adsorption onto platinum microelectrodes and used to probe the dynamics of electron transfer across the trans-1,2-bis-(4-pyridyl)ethylene bridge in the ground state. These monolayers are stable and exhibit well defined voltammetric responses for the Os2+/3+ redox reaction. Cyclic voltammograms recorded at high scan rates can be accurately modelled according to a non-adiabatic electron transfer model based on the Marcus theory using a standard heterogeneous electron transfer rate constant, k(o), of 3.1 +/- 0.2 x 10(4) s(-1) and a reorganization energy of 0.4 +/- 0.1 eV. This rate constant is a factor of approximately two orders of magnitude smaller than that found for photoinduced electron transfer across the same bpe bridge for identical driving forces. This significant difference is interpreted in terms of both the nature of the orbitals involved in electrochemically and optically driven electron transfer, as well as the strength of electronic coupling between two molecular components as opposed to a molecular component and a metal electrode. 相似文献
cis-Bis-homoleptic platinum(II) complexes, with predetermined helical chirality at the metal center, can be obtained by using strongly sterically interacting ligands. With this aim, two new ligands, (8R,10R)-2-(2'-thienyl)-4,5-pinenopyridine, th4,5ppy (2), and (8R,10R)-2-(2'-thienyl)-5,6-pinenopyridine, th5,6ppy (4), were synthesized and coordinated to platinum. The structures of the resulting complexes, Pt(th4,5ppy)(2) (5) and Pt(th5,6ppy)(2) (6), were determined by X-ray diffraction, and it was found that they both crystallize with a Delta-cis configuration. Thermal oxidative additions (TOA) of alkyl halides were performed with both complexes leading, in the case of 5, to a mixture of isomers and, in the case of 6, to isomerically pure products. The predetermination of chirality at the metal center is therefore preserved in the octahedral (OC-6) platinum(IV) complexes. Crystals of Pt(th4,5ppy)(2) (5) are orthorhombic, of space group P2(1)2(1)2(1), with a = 12.973(1) ?, b = 13.619(2) ?, c = 17.665(2) ?, alpha = beta = gamma = 90 degrees, and Z = 4. Final R = 0.0268 and R(w) = 0.0424 for 3101 observed reflections. Crystals of Pt(th5,6ppy)(2) (6) are hexagonal, of space group P6(1), with a = 11.5465(4) ?, b = 11.5465(4) ?, c = 35.356(3) ?, alpha = beta = 90 degrees, gamma = 120 degrees, and Z = 6. Final R = 0.0424 and R(w) = 0.0845 for 2660 observed reflections. Neither molecule possesses a crystallographic C(2) symmetry. 相似文献
The aim of this study has been to gain a fundamental understanding of the mechanisms governing thermal degradation of luminescent poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB). PHB was doped with diaquatris(thenoyltrifluoroacetonate) europium(III) complex, [Eu(tta)3(H2O)2], and different luminescent systems were obtained. The thermal-stability of the luminescent films was discussed and the products of decomposition were analyzed. Thermal degradation of PHB:Eu(tta)3x % systems (x = 0, 1, 5, 10, and 15 %) was elucidated by means of thermogravimetric analysis (TG), the thermal-stability decreases with the increase of europium complex concentration. The PHB polymer decomposed with evolution of carbon dioxide and 2-butenoic acid molecules. The TG–FTIR results, of the gaseous degradation products of PHB in nitrogen atmosphere, indicated that the polymer is stable at temperatures up to 200 °C. Polymer matrix at concentrations above 5 % decomposed with evolution of water molecules among the other gaseous products, which implied the presence of a hydrated complex in the system. The luminescent films showed more flexibility due to a loss in crystallinity, which suggested a potential usefulness in technical applications. 相似文献
Electrodes based on particulate carbon-epoxy or silicone composites have been formed and characterised using electrochemical methods, scanning electron microscopy and scanning electrochemical microscopy. These composites are rigid, exhibit high electrical conductivity and are stable in organic solvents for prolonged periods. The bulk resistance of the Araldite-M and Araldite-CW2215 based electrodes is low, 130+/-12 and 185+/-15 ohms, respectively. In contrast, the bulk resistance of the silicone based electrodes is 1480+/-112 ohms. The uncompensated resistance of electrochemical cells where the composites act as working electrodes is significantly larger than that expected on the basis of solution resistance alone, i.e., up to 7.5 kohms in the case of the silicone composites. These results are interpreted in terms of the presence of pores within the composite material. The response times of the composite electrodes to changes in the applied potential is between 3.1 and 7.2 ms which, although almost an order of magnitude longer than a comparable glassy carbon electrode, is sufficiently rapid to give useful voltammetric data for scan rates of several V s(-1). Close to ideal reversible cyclic voltammetry is observed for ferrocene under semi-infinite diffusion control for scan rates between 0.01 and 0.1 V s(-1) at the Araldite composites. In contrast, the large resistance associated with the silicone based materials causes quasi-reversible responses to be observed over this range of scan rate. Scan rate dependent cyclic voltammetry and time resolved chronoamperometry responses observed for ferrocene in solution are consistent with those expected for a random array of microelectrodes. Scanning electron microscopy and scanning electrochemical microscopy has been used to image the shape, size and electrochemical activity of the electroactive zones. In the case of Araldite-M, the quality of the electrode surface has been probed by comparing the rate of heterogeneous electron transfer at a composite microelectrode with that found for a carbon fibre electrode. The standard heterogeneous electron transfer rate constant, k degrees , is 6.0+/-0.1 x 10(-3) cm s(-1) for the composite compared to 1.5+/-0.1 x 10(-1) cm s(-1) for the carbon fibre electrode. While the smaller rate constant found for the composite suggests a less pristine surface, k degrees is sufficiently large to support reversible, electron transfer under typical electroanalytical conditions. These fundamental measurements will underpin the development of enzyme based biosensors for use in organic solvents. 相似文献
