(n-Bu₄N)₄[Mo₈O₂₆] reacts with the Na salt of 2-mercaptopyridine N-oxide (NaPT) in MeCN to give the complex (n-Bu₄N)₂[MoO₂(PT)₂·Mo₄O₈(-O)₂(₃-O)₂(PT)₂] (1) which contains two metal centres: one being mononuclear molybdenum chelating to two PT ligands, and the other a tetranuclear oxomolybdenum cluster with two PT ligands at the terminal point. The i.r. spectrum of the title complex exhibits absorption bands at 911.5 and 881.9 cm^–1, characteristic of the [cis-MoO₂]²⁺ fragment.

Synthesis,Reactivity, and Structural Characterization of Dioxovanadium(V) Complexes with Tridentate Schiff Base Ligand: Vanadium Complexes in Supramolecular Networks

The synthesis, characterization and crystal structure analysis of the ammonium salt of the dioxovanadium(V) complex NH₄[VO₂(salhyph)] with the tridentate Schiff base ligand derived from salicylaldehyde and benzoic acid hydrazide (H₂salhyph) is reported. NH₄[VO₂(salhyph)] crystallizes in the monoclinic space group Pn with a = 708.8(2), b = 1444.3(3), c = 717.1(2) pm and β = 101.09(2)°. The vanadium atom of the dioxovanadium(V) moiety has a distorted square‐pyramidal coordination geometry. Extensive hydrogen bonding is observed between the ammonium cation and the oxygen atoms coordinated to the vanadium atom yielding to a two‐dimensional network, where the complex anions are arranged in a bilayer. Additional crystal packing within the bilayer appears to be controlled mostly by π stacking between the aromatic rings of the ligand. The reactions of NH₄[VO₂(salhyph)] with several proton acidic compounds including water, methanol, and proton acids lead to neutral monooxovanadium(V) and dioxovanadium(V) complexes ([VO₂(Hsalhyph)], [V₂O₃(salhyph)₂] and [VO(OMe)(salhyph)(HOMe)]).     

PBA@POM Hybrids as Efficient Electrocatalysts for the Oxygen Evolution Reaction

To realize the effective conversion of renewable energy through water decomposition, efficient electrocatalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) are essential. In this article, PBA@POM was successfully prepared with a Prussian blue analogue (PBA) as the initial structure. A facile hydrothermal process is reported for obtaining PBA@POM by etching the cubic PBA with a strong Brønsted acid, H₃PMo₁₂O₄₀ (HPMo). The hollow cube structure not only exposes more active sites but also promotes electron transport, which results in excellent electrocatalytic activity for the OER. Compared with the PBA, which initially simply adhered to POM, the optimum PBA@POM hybrids display remarkably enhanced OER catalytic activity, with an almost constant overpotential of 440 mV at a current density of 10 mA cm^?2 and a small Tafel slope (23.45 mV dec^?1). The facilely prepared PBA@POM with good electrochemical activity and stability promises great potential for the OER.     

Direct Electrochemistry of Cytochrome c on EDTA-ZrO2 Organic-inorganic Hybrid Film Modified ElectrodesState Key Laborator3.＂ of Chemo／Biosensing and Chemometrics, Hunan Universit3; Changsha. Hunan 410082. China

A composite film of ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA)‐ZrO₂ organic‐inorganic hybrid was prepared based on the chelation between Zr(IV) and EDTA. The direct electrochemical behavior of cytochrome c (cyt. c) at the hybrid film modified glassy carbon electrodes was investigated. The immobilized EDTA can promote the redox of heme in horse heart cyt. c which gives rise to a pair of reversible redox peaks with a formal potential of 40 mV (vs. SCE). The peak current increased linearly with the increase of cyt. c concentration in the range of 1.6 × 10^?6—8.0 × 10^?5 mol·L^?1 with the correlation coefficient of 0.996. Further investigation shows that metal ions can impede the electron transfer of cyt. c. The impediment capability of metal ions depends on their coordination capability with EDTA and their valence number.     

Synthesis α‐aminonitrile through anodic cyanation of N‐benzylpiperidine

Six‐membered cyclic α‐aminonitrile has been prepared from anodic cyanation of N‐benzylpiperidine. Good yields of α‐aminonitriles could be obtained through potentiostatic electrolysis under different conditions. The results also explain why high yield α‐aminonitriles could not be obtained under constant current electrolysis.
