Crystal Structures of [Ni(Phen)(i‐Bu2PS2)2] and [Ni(Phen)3](i‐Bu2PS2)2 Complexes and Interaction between Coordinated 1,10‐Phenanthroline Molecules

Single crystals of [Ni(Phen)(iBu₂PS₂)₂] (I) and [Ni(Phen)₃](iBu₂PS₂)₂ (III) compounds were grown, and their structures were determined by Xray diffraction analysis (CAD4 diffractometer, MoK radiation, 3336 F _hkl , R = 0.0373 for I and 2575 F _hkl for III). The crystals of complex I have a triclinic unit cell with the following parameters: a = 11.097(1) , b = 14.903(2) , c = 22.650(3); = 75.18(1)°, = 80.50(1)°, = 75.07(1)°, V = 3479.2(7)³, Z = 4, _calc = 1.255 g/cm³, and space group 1; the crystals of III have a monoclinic unit cell with the following parameters: a = 19.010(3), b = 15.481(1) , c = 17.940(3); = 97.58(1)°, V = 5233.5(12)³, Z = 4, _calc = 1.292 g/cm³, and space group C2/c. The structure of complex I is built from mononuclear molecules, and the structure of III, from [Ni(Phen)₃]²⁺ complex cations and i Bu₂PS₂ ^- outersphere anions. The NiN₂S₄ coordination polyhedra in the structure of I and NiN₆ in the structure of III are distorted octahedra. Based on structural data, the interaction between the coordinated Phen molecules of complexes I, [Ni(Phen)₂(iBu₂PS₂)](iBu₂PS₂) (II), and III is considered, as well as the packing modes of these complexes.     

Correlation between excess adsorption data measured for solvent mixture/adsorbent systems and RM values obtained for different solutes chromatographed in binary mobile phases

This paper concerns the application of excess adsorption isotherms, measured for solvent mixture/adsorbent systems, to the characterization of TLC data. For this purpose the excess adsorption isotherms for three liquid mixtures: cyclohexane/ benzene, benzene/acetone, and carbon tetrachloride/ethyl acetate on silica gel at 20°C have been measured. These mixtures have been used as binary mobile phases in TLC measurements. It has been shown for a given solute in binary mobile phase that the quantity R_M is a simple function of the excess adsorption. Parameters of this function have been used to characterize chromatographic systems with binary mobile phases.     

The effect of the structure of bonded cyanoalkyl stationary phases on their selectivity in the liquid chromatographic separation of polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons

Summary The paper discusses the effect of the length and structure of the hydrocarbon chain connecting the nitrile group to the silica gel surface on the chromatographic properties of cyanoalkyl phases.When using non-polar and polar mobile phases, the selectivity of the cyanodecyl phases toward PAHs is higher than of the cyanopropyl phase and of hydroxylated silica gel.Polar additives to the mobile phase drastically decrease the retention on silica gel and on the cyanopropyl phase while affect the properties of cyanodecyl phases only to a considerably less degree. Newly synthesized phases with different structures of the hydrocarbon chain are compared with the commerical cyano-and ODS-phases. The retention mechanism on the cyanoalkyl phases is discussed.     

Spin-Spin Relaxation Process of 23Na-NMR in Na-Loaded NaY

Abstract

Spin-spin relaxation of ²³Na-NMR is observed by the spin echo method at room temperature for Y-type zeolite loaded with Na metal without hydration. For saturated and no levels of loading, the echo decay is well fitted by single exponential function. T ₂ decreases to be 0.25 times smaller by loading. This decrease of T ₂ is explained semiquantitatively with assuming nuclear dipole-dipole interaction between neighboring Na.

Structure and Polymorphism of M(thd)3 (M = Al,Cr, Mn,Fe, Co,Ga, and In)

Formation, crystal structure, polymorphism, and transition between polymorphs are reported for M(thd)₃, (M = Al, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ga, and In) [(thd)^– = anion of H(thd) = C₁₁H₂₀O₂ = 2, 2, 6, 6‐tetramethylheptane‐3, 5‐dione]. Fresh crystal‐structure data are provided for monoclinic polymorphs of Al(thd)₃, Ga(thd)₃, and In(thd)₃. Apart from adjustment of the M–O_k bond length, the structural characteristics of M(thd)₃ complexes remain essentially unaffected by change of M. Analysis of the M–O_k, O_k–C_k, and C_k–C_k distances support the notion that the M–O_k–C_k–C_k–C_k–O_k– ring forms a heterocyclic unit with σ and π contributions to the bonds. Tentative assessments according to the bond‐valence or bond‐order scheme suggest that the strengths of the σ bonds are approximately equal for the M–O_k, O_k–C_k, and C_k–C_k bonds, whereas the π component of the M–O_k bonds is small compared with those for the O_k–C_k, and C_k–C_k bonds. The contours of a pattern for the occurrence of M(thd)₃ polymorphs suggest that polymorphs with structures of orthorhombic or higher symmetry are favored on crystallization from the vapor phase (viz. sublimation). Monoclinic polymorphs prefer crystallization from solution at temperatures closer to ambient. Each of the M(thd)₃ complexes subject to this study exhibits three or more polymorphs (further variants are likely to emerge consequent on systematic exploration of the crystallization conditions). High‐temperature powder X‐ray diffraction shows that the monoclinic polymorphs convert irreversibly to the corresponding rotational disordered orthorhombic variant above some 100–150 °C (depending on M). The orthorhombic variant is in turn transformed into polymorphs of tetragonal and cubic symmetry before entering the molten state. These findings are discussed in light of the current conceptions of rotational disorder in molecular crystals.

受限于两平行板间的对称星形共聚物Am Bm熔体相行为的格子自洽场理论研究

采用格子自洽场理论计算研究了受限于2个平行板间的对称星形共聚物AmBm(m=1,2,3,4,5)熔体形成的层状相结构.在给定的相互作用下(χNAB不变,χ为Flory-Huggins相互作用参数,NAB=(N?1)/m为单个聚合物分子中一对AB臂的总链节数目),针对平行板间距为体相周期的情况,系统考察了共聚物链长N和单个聚合物分子中A(或B)臂数目m对受限层结构细节及层取向的影响.由计算结果,当N或NAB不变时,受限层的归一化界面宽度随m的增大而减小.受限板为中性时,垂直层结构的单链自由能比平行层结构的低.随着板对共聚物中一种嵌段的选择作用Λ的增大,体系发生垂直层到平行层的转变,该转变为一阶相变.当m不变时,N越小,上述转变出现在越大的Λ值处,体系越容易保持垂直层结构.并且N越小,层状结构周期越小.当N或NAB不变时,m越大体系越容易保持垂直层结构.总之,星形共聚物的链长越短、臂数越多时,垂直层稳定的Λ区间越大、层状结构的界面宽度越小.这些结论可以指导刻蚀应用中对体系参数的选择.
