Spectrophotometric and titrimetric determination of gallium in minerals and ores using semimethylthymol blue

The composition, overall stability constant and molar absorptivity of the chelate of gallium(III) ion with semimethylthymol blue, SMTB, were determined spectrophotometrically in acetate buffer (pH 4.5–5). A violet Ga(SMTB) chelate was formed with logarithmic overall stability constant of 18.0±0.1 (I=0.1) and molar absorptivity of 4.25×10⁴l mol^–1cm^–1 (_max 580 nm). SMTB is proposed as a new reagent for the spectrophotometric determination of micro-molar amounts of gallium(III). The colour development depends on time, temperature, pH and buffer species. The interference of different cations, anions and organic acids on gallium(III) determination was also investigated. Beer's law was obeyed for 3.5–31.3 gGa(III)/25ml (0.14–1.25 g ml^–1). SMTB was used for the spectrophotometric determination of gallium in different grade minerals and ores and the results were of acceptable error and relative standard deviation. Comparison between the two suggested methods and atomic absorption spectrometry for Ga(III) determination was carried out.     

Chalcogenide Exchange Reaction of [RGa(μ3-Te)]4 with Elemental Sulfur and Selenium: A Density Functional Theory Study

Thermodynamic and mechanistic features of the chalcogen exchange reaction between [RGa( ₃-Te)]₄ and elemental sulfur or selenium have been studied employing density functional theory (DFT) calculations using the BL3YP basis set and Stuttgart pseudopotentials. For [MeGa( ₃-E)]₄ (E=S, Se, Te) the correlation between the calculated parameters and diffraction data for their isolable analogs is greater than 98%. Each step of the conversion of [MeGa( ₃-Te)]₄ to [MeGa( ₃-E)]₄ via [Me₄Ga₄( ₃-Te)_4–x ( ₃-E) _x ] (E=S, Se) is predicted to occur as a series of isolated reactions. The entropy change for each chalcogen exchange is small in magnitude and corresponds to the degree of cage distortion within the cubane molecules. Calculations performed on [MeGa( ₃-Te)]₄...S₈ and [MeGa( ₃-Te)]₄-S suggest that an increase in electrophilicity of the gallium next to a surface bound tellurium may result in nucleophilic cage opening for which intermediate structures are calculated.     

Covalent Structures of Phosphorus: A Comprehensive Theoretical Study

Starting from earlier work by Baudler we introduce a chemical heuristic for the systematic deduction and classification of covalent partial structures of phosphorus in polycyclic phosphanes, phosphorus-rich polycyclic phosphides, and allotropes of phosphorus except the black forms. This approach is used to direct ab initio techniques (which also confirm the rules) in the quest for as yet unknown forms of molecular or macromolecular phosphorus. Based on calculated stabilities of systematically generated structural alternatives we rationalize the stabilities of Hittorf's phosphorus and of molecular P₄, confirm the possible existence of at least one other crystalline allotropic form of phosphorus, and provide insight into the probable structure of amorphous red phosphorus. In total, the combined approach of chemical heuristics and large scale ab initio calculations presented in this work supplies a coherent chemical understanding of covalent polyphosphorus structures.     

Ba8Cu16P30 – eine neue ternäre Variante des Clathrat I-Strukturtyps

Ba₈Cu₁₆P₃₀ – a New Ternary Variant of the Clathrate I Type Structure Ba₈Cu₁₆P₃₀ (a = 14.117(1) Å, b = 10.093(1) Å, c = 28.022(2) Å) was prepared by heating a mixture of the elements (800°C; excess of Ba and P; removal of the by-products by acetic acid/H₂O₂). The compound crystallizes orthorhombically (Pbcn; Z = 4) in a new superstructure of the cubic clathrate I type structure with an ordered distribution of the atoms. The structure is characterized by a three-dimensional framework of CuP₄ tetrahedra with cavities in the form of pentagonal dodecahedra and tetrakaidecahedra, which are occupied by the Ba atoms. The compound shows semiconduction, therefore the composition should be Ba₈Cu_15.5P_30.5.     

Some thermodynamic aspects of nitrides in materials science

The energies of combustion in fluorine of gallium nitride and indium nitride in wurzite crystalline structure have been measured in a two-compartment calorimetric bomb, and new standard molar enthalpies of formation have been calculated: Δ_fH_m⁰(GaN(cr) 298.15 K)= –(163.7±4.2) kJ mol^–1 and Δ_fH_m⁰(InN(cr) 298.15 K)= –(146.5±4.6) kJ mol^–1 . Comparison with the recommended values of the Δ_fH_m⁰ nitrides from the literature is also presented.
