Crystal Structures and Magnetic Properties of the Two Misfit Layer Compounds: [SrGd0.5S1.5]1.16 NbS2 and [Sr(Fe,Nb)0.5S1.5]1.13 NbS2

Crystal structures of two new misfit compounds, [SrGd_0.5S_1.5]_1.16NbS₂ and [Sr(Fe,Nb)_0.5S_1.5]_1.13NbS₂, were determined through the composite approach, i.e., by refining each subpart (Q, H-parts, and the common part) of these composite materials, separately. The Q-part is a three-atom-thick layer, with the NaCl-type structure, where external SrS planes enclose the inner GdS or (Fe,Nb)S plane; the structural difference between these two compounds lies in the central layer within the Q-part: Gd and S atoms are in special positions (octahedral coordination), while Fe and S atoms are statistically distributed on split (×4) positions (tetrahedral coordination) around a central unique site (=special position occupied by Nb). The H-part is a sandwich of sulfur planes enclosing the inner Nb plane as observed for the structure of the binary compound NbS₂ itself. The Sr-Gd derivative shows a paramagnetic behavior in the whole studied temperature range (2-300 K). On the other hand, antiferromagnetic interactions occur in the Sr-Fe derivative; the complex magnetic behavior of this compound is related to the statistical distribution of Fe atoms which leads to frustration of the magnetic interactions. At room temperature, experimental values obtained from Mössbauer spectrum correspond to Fe³⁺ in tetrahedral sulfur environment: isomer shift δ=0.32 mm s⁻¹, and quadrupole splitting ΔE=0.48 mm s⁻¹.     

Oxidation of methyl phenyl sulfide with hydrogen peroxide catalyzed by Ti(IV)-substituted heteropolytungstate

Alkylammonium salts of Ti(IV)-substituted heteropolytungstate, PW₁₁TiO ₁₀ ⁵⁻ , catalyze the oxidation of methyl phenyl sulfide with hydrogen peroxide. The yield of the corresponding sulfoxide and sulfone is practically quantitative. A³¹P NMR study confirms the formation and reactivity of the PW₁₁O₃₉TiO ₂ ⁵⁻ peroxo complex in organic media.

Photocatalytic Organic Syntheses: Selective Cyclization of Amino Acids in Aqueous Suspensions

Photocatalytic reactions occurring at semiconductor particles/solution interfaces can be applied to organic syntheses. In this review article, examples of photocatalytic syntheses of cyclic amino acids by suspended semiconductor particles, e.g., titanium(IV) oxide or cadmium(II) sulfide are introduced and interpreted. Different from the photocatalytic decomposition of pollutants under aerobic conditions, selective conversion of organic compounds can be driven by the photocatalytic reactions under deaerated conditions.     

Ein neues Samariumnitridsulfid: Sm4N2S3

A New Samarium Nitride Sulfide: Sm₄N₂S₃ The oxidation of samarium with sulfur in the presence of SmCl₃ and NaN₃ as nitrogen source (molar ratio: 12:9:4:2, evacuated silica vessel, some NaCl as flux, 850°C, 7 d) yields Sm₄N₂S₃ as lath-shaped, dark red single crystals. The by-products (NaCl and NaSm₂Cl₆) are rinsed with water from the crude product. The crystal structure of Sm₄N₂S₃ (monoclinic, C2/m (no. 12), Z = 2, a = 1 318.04(12), b = 391.57(2), c = 1 031.76(9) pm, β = 130.874(6)°, R = 0.036, R_w = 0.031) contains two crystallographically different Sm³⁺, both in sixfold coordination of the anions. Besides distorted octahedra [(Sm1)N₃S₃] and [(Sm2)NS₅], tetrahedra [(N^3?)(Sm)] connected via two cis-oriented edges to form chains [N(Sm1)_3/3(Sm2)_1/1]³⁺ build up the Mayn structural feature. These are arranged in the fashion of a closest packing of rods and held together by two crystallographically different S^2? anions which take care for charge neutrality and three-dimensional interconnection.     

Chalkogenid-Disilicate der Lanthanoide vom Typ M4X3[Si2O7] (M  Ce?Er; X  S,Se)

M₄X₃[Si₂O₇]-Type Lanthanide Chalcogenide Disilicates (M ? Ce? Er; X ? S, Se) Attempts to produce single crystals of MSe₂ (or MSe^2?X) by vapour phase transport with iodine or the oxidation of MCl₂ (or MClH) with sulfur in the presence of NaCl in sealed evacuated quartz containers often yielded well-grown single crystals with the composition M₄X₃[Si₂O₇] (M ? pr, Sm, Gd, X ? Se, and M ? Nd, Er, X ? S) as by-products. The crystal structures (tetragonal, 14₁/amd (no. 141)), Z = 8, contain two crystallographically independent M₃₊ Cations that are interconnected by chalcogenide (X_2?) and disilicate anions ([Si₂O₇]^6?). (M1)³⁺ is surrounded by eight (five X^2? and three terminal O_2? of the disilicate group), (M2)³⁺ by nine (three X^2? and six terminal O^2? of the [Si₂O₇]_6? anion) chalcogenide anions. The disilicate anion itself exhibits the eclipsed conformation with non-linear Si? O? Si bridges (angles: 128 – 133°).     

Molecular structure of (3,5-diallylisocyanuratomethyl)bis(chloromethyl)phosphine oxide. Synthesis of (3,5-diallylisocyanuratomethyl)phosphine sulfides

X-Ray study of the (3,5-diallylisocyanuratomethyl)bis(chloromethyl)phosphine oxide showed that the phosphorylmethyl group is bonded to the nitrogen atom of the cycle. Reaction of the tris(chloromethyl)phosphine sulfide with sodium diallylisocyanurate gave (3,5-diallylisocyanuratomethyl)bis(chloromethyl)phosphine sulfide, and treatment of the tris(3,5-diallylisocyanuratomethyl)phosphine oxide with phosphorus pentasulfide gave a tris(3,5-diallylisocyanuratomethyl)bis(chloromethyl)phosphine sulfide.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Decomposition of Gaseous Sulfide Compounds in Air by Pulsed Corona Discharge

The effectiveness of applying a pulsed corona discharge to the destruction of olfactory pollution in air was investigated. This paper presents a comparative study of the decomposition of three representative sulfide compounds in diluted concentrations: hydrogen sulfide (H₂S), dimethyl sulfide (DMS), and ethanethiol (C₂H₅SH), which could be completely removed when a sufficient but reasonable energy density was deposited in the gas. DMS showed the lowest energy cost (around 30 eV/molecules); C₂H₅SH and H₂S had an EC of respectively 45 eV and 115 eV. The efficiency of the non-thermal plasma process increased with decreasing the initial concentration of sulfide compounds, while the energy yield remained almost unchanged. SO₂ was the only identified byproduct of H₂S decomposition, but the sulfur balance suggests the formation of undetected SO₃. The byproducts analyzed during the degradation of DMS and C₂H₅SH enabled to propose a reaction mechanism, starting with radical attack and breaking of C–S bonds.     

Absolute line intensity measurements of hot bands for carbonyl sulfide at 12 microm

Using diode-laser spectroscopy, the intensities of 58 lines of the v(1) + v(1/2) - v(1/2) band and 36 lines of the 2v(1) - v(1) band of OCS have been measured. The corresponding band strengths S(0)(v) and the vibrational transition dipoles micro(v) have been derived through least squares fitting of these individual intensities. The band strengths values have been determined with a precision better than 2.5%.
