Structure formation in heavy metal oxyhydrates at low rates of gel formation

Oxyhydrate gels have a hydrophilic surface, due to which they undergo destruction and secondary polymerization in aqueous media. Prolonged storage in aqueous solution gives rise to regions with selfsimilar helical ordering in gels. Structuring of this kind is also observed when synthesis is conducted under conditions that provide low gelation rates. Electromagnetic UV and visible radiation is another means to change the gel structure; it makes the oligomer species pass into the excited state, due to which one of the directions of structuring becomes dominant. This work summarizes the results of computer simulation of gel agglomerates. For oxyhydrate systems, helical ordering was found to be one of the local energy minima. The units of a macrohelix can lie at various angles relative to one another, and they can change, after absorption of energy, the helix pitch and the order of elements in the helix.

Pseudoelement Compounds. VIII. [1]. On the Coordination Behaviour of Potential Ambidentate Aryl-cyanamidosulfonate Ligands Aryl-cyanamidosulfonates form with metal(II) ions (Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Cd, Hg, Pd, Pt) complexes of the types MX₂, [MX₂L₂], [MX₂L₄] and [MX₄]^2?. The ionic, potentially ambidentate ligand [RSO₂NCN]^? is monodentately coordinated via the terminal nitrogen atom and bidentately in a bridging function through the nitrile group end-on (equatorial) and one of the two sulfonyl oxygen atoms (axial). The new compounds are characterized by means of ir and uv-vis spectroscopy. In the case of [Ni(NCNSO₂C₆H₄Me-4)₂(py)₄] the molecular and crystal structure was determined.

Synthesis and Structure of Li₃RhH₆ — a Ternary Hydride with Isolated [RhH₆]^3? Octahedra The ternary rhodium hydride Li₃RhH₆ was synthesized by the reaction of lithium hydride with rhodium under a hydrogen pressure of 80 bar. X-ray investigations on powdered samples and an elastic neutron diffraction experiment on the deuterated compound led to the complete structure determination (space group: Pnma, Z = 4). The atomic arrangement is isotypic to the Na₃RhH₆ structure type. The crystal structure contains isolated [RhH₆]^3? octahedra, which are separated by the lithium ions.     

新型化合物[Ni(en)3]2[Ni(en)2(H2O)2][As6V15O42]·4H2O晶体的水热合成与表征

金属氧酸盐因其在医药临床、工业催化、功能材料等方面的广泛应用而引起人们的关注[1～6], 其中, 有关钒化学的研究一直很活跃, 钒具有与钼、钨明显不同的结构特性, 钒可以采取VO4, VO5和VO6方式配位, 同时, 钒的价态可以是+3, +4和+5价. 由于钒可采取多种配位方式及多种价态, 与钼酸盐和钨酸盐相比, 钒酸盐更具有结构柔顺性, 同时易形成低价或混合价态物种.在以往的文献中, 有关P-V-O体系多金属氧酸盐的水热合成的研究已有大量的报道[7], 在常规溶液合成中, 人们已对As-V-O体系进行了相对深入的研究, 而有关水热合成的研究报道却很少, 已见报道的砷钒化合物有K6*6H2O[8,9], 4-[10], 6-[11](X=SO2-3, SO2-4, H2O). 为了探究水热条件下As-V-O体系的反应特性, 我们开展了这方面的研究工作, 并取得了突破性进展. 本文采用中温水热技术合成了含有机基团的砷矾超分子化合物2**4H2O, 探讨这类化合物的非线性光学性质、催化性质及其它功能特性将是一个非常有意义的研究领域.     

Synthesis, crystal structure and studies on properties of trisodium 5,3′,5′-trisulfonate-2,3,4,4′-tetrahydroxy-deoxybenzoin

A new water soluble compound trisodium 5,3′,5′-trisulfonate-2,3,4,4′-tetrahydroxy-deoxybenzoin (TTDB) was synthesized and characterized by IR, UV, ¹H NMR, and elemental analysis. The single crystal of TTDB was determined by X-ray single crystal diffraction. The scavenging effect of compounds on hydroxy radicals was detected by fluorescent spectrophotometry. The electrochemical behavior of compounds in nonaqueous solution DMF was carried out by means of cyclic voltammetry. The experimental result shows that the crystal [C₁₄H₁₇Na₃O₁₈S₃] belongs to monoclinic, space group C2/c with unit cell constants a = 1.4223(4) nm, b = 2.4327(8) nm, c = 1.3596(4) nm, α = 90°, β = 113.044(5)°, γ = 90°, Z = 8, V = 4.329(2) nm³, D _c = 1.925 mg/m³, F(000) = 2568, F _w = 638.43, R ₁ = 0.0950, wR ₂ = 0.2648. The half effective concentration EC₅₀ of scavenging hydroxy radicals of compound THDB is 53.1 μmol/L, while that of scavenging hydroxy radicals of compound TTDB is 47.3μmol/L. The electrochemistry redox processes of THDB and TTDB are different from each other. __________ Translated from Chemical Journal of Chinese Universities, 2005, 26(9) (in Chinese)     

Coordination chemistry of 2,6-bis(diphenylphosphorylmethyl)-4-methylphenol

The trifunctional ligand, 2,6-bis(diphenylphosphorylmethyl)-4-methylphenol (L ₂), forms complexes with cerium(III) nitrate having a ligand to metal ratio of 1: 1, 2: 1, and 3: 1. The structures of these complexes in the solid state and in solution were studied by X-ray diffraction, IR and NMR (¹H and ³¹P) spectroscopy, and conformational analysis (molecular mechanics). The 2: 1 complexes of L ₂ with lanthanum(III) and neodymium(III) nitrates were synthesized and characterized. In all complexes, the neutral ligand is coordinated through both phosphoryl oxygen atoms. The hydroxy oxygen atom is coordinated only in some complexes, and the hydrogen atom of the hydroxy group is involved in hydrogen bonding. The compositions and structures of the resulting complexes depend on the method of synthesis and the nature of solvent. The ligand was found to undergo easy inner-sphere oxidation. The structure of one of the transformation products was established by X-ray diffraction. Unlike the coordinated ligand, the free ligand is very stable to oxidation.
