Synthesis and study of interconversions of new indoline spiropyrans based on 4-hydroxy-3,5-diformylbenzoic acid

The synthesis of new indoline spiropyran by the cyclocondensation in methanol revealed that the free aldehyde group of the target spiropyran is easily converted into the dimethyl acetal moiety without the addition of an acid catalyst, giving 8′-dimethoxymethyl-1,3,3-trimethylspiro[indoline-2,2′-2H-chromene]-5,6′-dicarboxylic acid as a single reaction product. The structure of this compound was confirmed by NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. The molecular structure was also established by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The Hirshfeld surfaces were generated and analyzed and intermolecular interactions in the crystal were investigated using the CrystalExplorer software package. The reverse hydrolysis reaction of dimethyl acetal to the aldehyde group proceeds under mild conditions in dimethyl sulfoxide, as shown by NMR spectroscopy.

Modeling of the Simultaneous Hydrogen Evolution and Cobalt Electrodeposition

A mathematical model of simultaneous cobalt deposition and hydrogen evolution was developed and applied to the electroreduction process of 5 mM Co²⁺ ions investigated by cyclic voltammetry (CV) technique at different hydrogen ion concentrations (pH=2, 3, 4). The kinetic parameters of such a complex process were determined, and the validity of the model and its sensitivity to changes in individual parameters were verified. The relative value of the approximate standard deviation (ASD_%) was used to determine the degree of fit of the model to the experimental data. The catalytic effect of cobalt on the hydrogen evolution process was comprehensively confirmed.     

CO Oxidation Catalytic Effects of Intrinsic Surface Defects in Rhombohedral LaMnO3

There is an ongoing effort to replace rare and expensive noble-element catalysts with more abundant and less expensive transition metal oxides. With this goal in mind, the intrinsic defects of a rhombohedral perovskite-like structure of LaMnO₃ and their implications on CO catalytic properties were studied. Surface thermodynamic stability as a function of pressure (P) and temperature (T) were calculated to find the most stable surface under reaction conditions (P=0.2 atm, T=323 K to 673 K). Crystallographic planes (100), (111), (110), and (211) were evaluated and it was found that (110) with MnO₂ termination was the most stable under reaction conditions. Adsorption energies of O₂ and CO on (110) as well as the effect of intrinsic defects such as Mn and O vacancies were also calculated. It was found that O vacancies favor the interaction of CO on the surface, whereas Mn vacancies can favor the formation of carbonate species.
