Carbon nanotube assisted synthesis of CeO2 nanotubes

CeO₂ nanotubes have been synthesized facilely using carbon nanotubes (CNTs) as templates by a liquid phase deposition method. The properties of the CeO₂ nanotubes were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectrum (XPS) as well as thermogravimetry and differential thermal analysis (TG-DTA). The obtained CeO₂ nanotubes with a polycrystalline face-centered cubic phase have a uniform diameter ranging from 40 to 50 nm. The CeO₂ nanotubes are composed of many tiny interconnected nanocrystallites of about 10 nm in size. The pretreatment of CNTs and calcination temperature were confirmed to be the crucial factors determining the formation of CeO₂ nanotubes. A possible formation mechanism has been suggested to explain the formation of CeO₂ nanotubes.

Nickel-Ruthenium Mixed-Metal Carbonyl Clusters Syntheses and Solid State Structures of the Two Tetrahedral Clusters [PPh4][NiRu3(μ3 H)(CO)9(μ-CO)3] and [NEt4]2[NiRu3(CO)8(μ-CO)4]

Redox condensation of [Ru₃H(CO)₁₁]- with Ni(CO)₄, in tetrahydrofuran solution, under a nitrogen atmosphere, yields the tetranuclear anion [NiRu_H(CO)₁₁)-. Subsequent deprotonation with Bu'OK in acetonitrile solution leads to the formation of the related dianion. Both anions have been characterized by spectroscopic techniques, elemental analysis and single crystal X-ray diffraction. [PPh₄][NiRu₃H(CO)₁₂] crystallizes in the triclinic space group PI with unit cell dimensionsof a = 11.842(2) Å,b = 12.335(3) Å, c = 13.3080) Å,a = 91.89(2)°, = 93.35(1)°,y = 96.41(2)°, Z = 2, V= 1926.9(7) Å'. The NiRu₃, metal core of the molecule defines a distorted tetrahedron with nine terminal and three edge bridging carbonyl groups. The hydrido ligand was located by difference Fourier techniques and was found to bridge the NiRu₂ basal triangle at a distance of 0.88(6) A from this plane. Selected average distances and angles are: Ru-Ru = 2.839 Å, Ru-Ni = 2.640 Å, Ru-C, = 1.910 A,Ru-C _b = 2.084 Å, Ni-C _b = 2.022 Å, Ru-H = 1.77 Å, C-0, = 1.135 Å, C-O _b = 1.159 Å, M-C-O, = 176.3°,M-C--O _b = 139.3°;other distances are: Ni-C₁ = l.758(7) Å, Ni-H= 1.85(7) Å. [NEt₄]₂[NiRu₃(CO)₁₂] crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pnma (no. 62) with unit cell dimensions ofa=20.247(5) Å,b = 15.038(4)Å,c = 12.079(3) Å, Z=4, V=3678(2) A'. The molecule contains a tetrahedral NiRu₃ core with eight terminal and four edge bridging carbon monoxide groups which bridge the three Ni-Ru and one Ru-Ru bond. Average distances and angles are: Ru -Ru =2.3050A Ru-Ni 2.648 Å, Ru-C _t = 1.878 Å, Ru-C _b 2.045 Å, Ni-C _b = 2.055 Å, C-O _t = 1.145 Å, C-01,=1.157 Å, M-C-O,= 176.9°, M-C-O _b = 138.6°; other distance is: Ni-C _t = 1.754(10) Å,t = terminal,b = bridging.     

Molecular structure and nanosecond optical limiting property of a typical silver cubane-like cluster containing tetraselenotungstate

A typical silver cubane-like heteroselenometallic cluster, (μ₃-WSe₄)Ag₃(PPh₃)₃Cl·0.5SePPh₃, was synthesized from reaction of [Et₄N]₂[WSe₄] and Ag(PPh₃)₂(NO₃) in CH₂Cl₂ solution and structurally characterized by X-ray crystallography. The compound crystallizes in the trigonal space group R3 with a=16.258(4), b=22.80(3) Å, V=5217(7) ų, and Z=3. The structure contains a strongly distorted cubane-like {WAg₃Se₃Cl} core. The coordination geometries of the W center and each Ag atom are tetrahedral. The mean W-Ag separation is 3.010(3) Å. Optical nonlinearity of this cubane-like cluster was studied. Large optical limiting effect with threshold of 0.45 J/cm² was observed with the laser pulses of 7 ns at 532 nm.

Fixed-bed adsorption of carbon dioxide/methane mixtures on silicalite pellets

The adsorption of carbon dioxide and methane on silicalite pellets packed on a fixed bed has been studied. Equilibrium and kinetic measurements of the adsorption of carbon dioxide and methane have been performed, and a binary adsorption isotherm for carbon dioxide/methane mixtures has been obtained. A model based on the LDF approximation for the mass transfer has been used to describe the breakthrough curves obtained experimentally. A PSA cycle has been proposed for obtaining methane with purity higher than 98% from carbon dioxide/methane mixtures containing 38% and 50% methane, and its performance has been simulated using the proposed model. The simulation results show that silicalite can be a suitable adsorbent for employment in a PSA separation process for carbon dioxide removal from coalseam and landfill gases.     

The Electrochemical Behavior of Keggin Polyoxometalate Modified by Tricyclic,Aromatic Entity

The inorganic‐organic hybrid polyoxometalates (POMs), (pbpy)₄H[PMo₁₂O₄₀(VO)] ( 1 ) and (pbpy)₄H₄[SiMo₁₂O₄₀] ( 2 ) (pbpy=5‐phenyl‐2‐(4‐pyridinyl)pyridine), have been synthesized and were, respectively, used as a solid bulkmodifier to fabricate a three‐dimensional bulk‐modified carbon paste electrode (CPE) by direct mixing. The electrochemical behavior and electrocatalysis of 1 and 2 modified CPE ( 1 ‐CPE and 2 ‐CPE) have been studied in detail. Both 1 ‐CPE and 2 ‐CPE show remarkable stability that can be ascribed to the doped organic conjugated pbpy, which is very important for practical applications in electrode modification.
