Crystal Structure of Ternary Molybdate Rb5FeHf(MoO4)6 — a New Phase in the Rb2MoO4-Fe2(MoO4)3-Hf(MoO4)2 System

Physicochemical analysis (XRPA, DTA) was used to study phase equilibria in a ternary salt system Rb₂MoO₄-Fe₂(MoO₄)₃-Hf(MoO₄)₂ in the subsolidus region. Ternary molybdates with compositions 5:1:3, 5:1:2, and 1:1:1 have been found and synthesized. Crystal and thermal characteristics have been determined. Single crystals of the ternary molybdate Rb₅FeHf(MoO₄)₆ with a composition of 5:1:2 were grown. The crystal structure of the compound was solved using X-ray diffractometry (CAD-4 automatic diffractometer, MoK _α radiation, 1766 F(hkl), R = 0.0298). Hexagonal crystals with unit cell dimensions: a = b = 10.124(1) Å, c =15.135(3) Å, V = 1343.4(4) ų, Z = 2, ρ_calc = 4.008 g/cm³, space group P6₃. The mixed three-dimensional framework of the structure is formed from two sorts of MoO₄ tetrahedra and Fe and Hf octahedra linked through their common O-vertices. Rubidium atoms of three varieties occupy the large voids of the framework.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2004 by B. G. Bazarov, R. F. Klevtsova, A. D. Tsyrendorzhieva, L. A. Glinaskaya, and Zh. G.

Dielectric,magnetic and mechanical properties of ferrite composites

The dielectric and magnetic properties of carbonyl—iron (CI) and nickel zinc ferrite polymer composites were studied with respect to the ferrite particulate content and microwave frequency. From the experimental data and using empirical models that relate the composite dielectric and magnetic properties, the respective dielectric and magnetic properties of the neat fillers were estimated. The tensile properties of the particulate composites comprising CI were shown to follow qualitatively Mooney's equation for the elastic modulus. The tensile strength of an elastomeric polyurethane and PVC composites containing CI increased with particulate content, while the elongation to break decreased with filler content. SEM micrographs of tensile fracture surfaces indicated that somewhat better adhesion is obtained in the case of the polyurethane-based composites compared to the PVC ones.     

制备trans-Fe(CO)_3(PR_3)_2的新的取代过程

报道了用H_2Fe(CO)_4制备trans-Fe(CO)_3(PR_3)_2的新的羰基取代反应。在 过量质子存在下，H_2Fe(CO)_4中的羰基被活化，中心铁原子对膦的亲核进攻更为 敏感。在这种条件下H_2Fe(CO)_4与膦反应时，首先失去氢生成Fe(CO)_4(PR_3), Fe(CO)_4-(PR_3)再与第二个膦反应可高产率的得到trans-Fe(CO)_3(PR_3)_2。用 PPh_3与Fe(CO)_4(PPh_3)在过量质子存在下反应生成trans-Fe(CO)_3(PR_3)_2，证 实了上述过程。

A density functional study on a biomimetic non-heme iron catalyst: insights into alkane hydroxylation by a formally HO-FeV=O oxidant

The reactivity of [HO-(tpa)Fe(V)=O] (TPA=tris(2-pyridylmethyl)amine), derived from O-O bond heterolysis of its [H(2)O-(tpa)Fe(III)-OOH] precursor, was explored by means of hybrid density functional theory. The mechanism for alkane hydroxylation by the high-valent iron-oxo species invoked as an intermediate in Fe(tpa)/H(2)O(2) catalysis was investigated. Hydroxylation of methane and propane by HO-Fe(V)=O was studied by following the rebound mechanism associated with the heme center of cytochrome P450, and it is demonstrated that this species is capable of stereospecific alkane hydroxylation. The mechanism proposed for alkane hydroxylation by HO-Fe(V)=O accounts for the experimentally observed incorporation of solvent water into the products. An investigation of the possible hydroxylation of acetonitrile (i.e., the solvent used in the experiments) shows that the activation energy for hydrogen-atom abstraction by HO-Fe(V)=O is rather high and, in fact, rather similar to that of methane, despite the similarity of the H-CH(2)CN bond strength to that of the secondary C-H bond in propane. This result indicates that the kinetics of hydrogen-atom abstraction are strongly affected by the cyano group and rationalizes the lack of experimental evidence for solvent hydroxylation in competition with that of substrates such as cyclohexane.

Sol-Gel Preparation and Photoelectrochemical Properties of Fe2TiO5 Thin Films

Polycrystalline Fe₂TiO₅ films were prepared on nesa silica glass substrates by the sol-gel method, and their photoanodic properties were measured in a three-electrode wet cell with an aqueous buffer solution of pH = 7. Gel films were crystallized into Fe₂TiO₅ when fired at 500°C. The photoanodic current significantly increased when the films were fired at 700°C, and then decreased with increasing firing temperature. Thicker films obtained by repeating the gel film deposition and firing showed smaller photocurrent, and the 50 nm thick film prepared via non-repetitive deposition exhibited the maximum photocurrent. Although the photoresponse was extended to wavelengths near 500 nm, the maximum quantum yield was as low as 0.12 at a wavelength of 340 nm.     

Electronic structure of the Fe3S4 cluster and its quasi-aromaticity

The localized molecular orbitals and their energy levels for the clusters [Fe₃S₄(SH)₃]^2–, [(HS)₃Fe₃S₄·Ni(PH₃)]^2–, [Mo₃S₄(OH₂)₉]⁴⁺, and [Mo₃S₄·Ni]⁴⁺ have been calculated by mean of the Edmiston-Ruedenberg energy localization technique under the CNDO/2 approximation in order to reveal the resemblance between [Fe₃S₄]⁺ and [Mo₃S₄]⁴⁺ in the geometrical configurations and the addition reactivities with heterometal atoms. It is shown that in these two cluster species with core {M ₃(₃-S)(-S)₃} of similar structure (M = Mo, Fe) there exist three synergically connected three-centered two-electron (M-S-M) -bonds around the puckered six-membered {M₃S₃} rings on account of delocalization of a lone electron pair on each bridging S atom; these (M-S-M) -bonds are thus capable of forming cubane-like heterometal clusters with intruder metal atoms through the ( M) bonding. It is therefore seen that unlike the [Mo₃S₄]⁴⁺ with appreciable bonding between the Mo atoms, the extra d-electrons on the metal atoms in the [Fe₃S₄]⁺ cluster are localized on the Fe atoms, exhibiting an electronic structure significantly different from that of the [Mo₃S₄]⁴⁺ cluster.     

Kinetics of the Formation of Goethite in the Presence of Sulfates and Chlorides of Monovalent Cations

The synthesis of goethite by oxidation of Fe²⁺in presence of metallic iron was undertaken in an aqueous medium containing indifferent salts such as Na₂SO₄, (NH₄)₂SO₄, NaCl, and NH₄Cl. Temperature and bubbling air rate were maintained, respectively, at 70°C and 1 L/min. The influence of anions and cations on the kinetics of each step of the process has been followed distinctly, the iron dissolution rate has been determined by the variation of the medium acidity, and the precipitation of goethite has been determined by gravimetric measurements. With respect to Cl⁻, the SO₄²⁻anion decreases the rate of the two reactions. NH₄⁺acts as an inhibitor when it is present at low concentrations and as an accelerator for higher concentrations; the limit corresponding to the change of NH₄⁺behavior depends on the nature of the counter ion. The reaction product is composed of pure goethite in the presence of sulfate salts, whereas a mixture of goethite and lepidocrocite, respectively, 60–70 and 40–30%, was observed in the presence of chloride salts.
