The complex forms a one-dimensional chain structure via the bidentate bridging ligand dicyanamide. A two-dimensional networks is formed via interchain hydrogen bond interactions.     

Recyclable,non-leaching antimicrobial magnetic nanoparticles

Recyclable antimicrobial magnetic nanoparticles, Fe₃O₄@P(St-co-AcQAC), were prepared through surfactantfree seeded emulsion polymerization involving a polymerizable, hydrophobic quaternary ammonium compound (QAC). These antimicrobial magnetic nanoparticles demonstrated excellent antimicrobial activities against both Grampositive and Gram-negative bacteria, and can be reused for multiple times.

O157∶H7大肠埃希菌是一种致病力非常强的微生物.近年来,陆续有其引起食物中毒事件的报道.1996年日本发生O157∶H7大肠埃希菌食物中毒的爆发流行,感染病例逾万人,死亡9例.2001年我国江苏及安徽等地也发生了肠出血性O157∶H7大肠埃希菌所引发的感染性腹泻事件.目前O157∶H7大肠埃希菌实验室常规检测方法为分离培养计数法,此法费时费力,需要几天的时间才能得到检测结果[1,2],缺乏应对突发事件的能力,因此亟需开发快速检测技术.近年来,多种微生物快速检测技术如ELISA法[3]、热解质谱测定法[4]、多聚酶链反应[5]、荧光成像技术[6]、生物发…     

Structural and magnetic characterization of Mn3IrGe and Mn3Ir(Si1−xGex): experiments and theory

The structural and magnetic properties of a new ternary Ir-Mn-Ge phase, Mn₃IrGe, as well as the solid solution Mn₃Ir(Si_1−xGe_x), 0?x?1, have been investigated by means of X-ray and neutron powder diffraction, magnetization measurements and first principles calculations. The crystal structure is cubic, of the AlAu₄-type (an ordered form of the β-Mn structure), Z=4, space group P2₁3, and the unit-cell dimension varies linearly with the silicon content. For all compositions, antiferromagnetic ordering is found below a critical temperature of about 225 K. The magnetic structure is noncollinear, as a result of frustrated magnetic interactions on a triangular network of Mn atoms, on which the moments rotate 120° around the triangle axes. The magnitude of the magnetic moment at 10 K is 3.39(4) μ_B for Mn₃IrGe. The theoretical calculations reproduce with very good accuracy the magnitudes as well as the directions of the experimentally observed magnetic moments.

Ternary rare-earth alumo-silicides—single-crystal growth from Al flux, structural and physical properties

A number of rare-earth alumo-silicides (R-Al-Si) have been synthesized from the corresponding elements by high-temperature reactions, carried out in excess of aluminum to serve as a flux. Under these experimental conditions, large single crystals of all R-Al-Si ternary phases were readily produced. The crystal structures these ternaries adopt were studied by means of powder and single-crystal X-ray diffraction and were classified as follows: (1) the early rare-earths (R=La, Ce, Pr, Nd, Sm, Gd) yield RAl_xSi_2−x, x∼1, non-stoichiometric ternary derivatives of the body-centered α-ThSi₂-type; (2) the late rare-earths (R=Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm) form stoichiometric R₂Al₃Si₂ compounds that crystallize in the C-centered monoclinic Y₂Al₃Si₂-type; (3) the divalent Eu and Yb produce EuAl₂Si₂ and YbAl₂Si₂ with the trigonal CaAl₂Si₂-type, whereas the last lanthanide element, Lu, forms LuAlSi with C-centered orthorhombic YAlGe-type. These structural trends are reviewed, and the evolution of the basic physical properties such as magnetism, heat capacity and electrical resistivity when moving across the series is described in detail.     

Synthesis and structural, spectroscopic and magnetic studies of two new polymorphs of Mn(SeO3)·H2O

Two new manganese(II) selenite polymorphs with formula Mn(SeO₃)·H₂O have been synthesized by slow evaporation from an aqueous solution. The crystal structure of both compounds (1) and (2) have been solved from X-ray diffraction data. The structure of (1) was determined from single-crystal X-ray diffraction techniques. The compound crystallizes in the Ama2 space group, with a=5.817(1), b=13.449(3), and Z=4. The structure of (2) has been solved from X-ray powder diffraction data. This phase crystallizes in the P2₁/n space group with unit-cell parameters of a=4.921(3), b=13.121(7), , β=90.03(2)° and Z=4. Both polymorphs exhibit a layered structure formed by isolated sheets of MnO₆ octahedra and (SeO₃)²⁻ trigonal pyramids in the (010) plane. These layers, which contain one manganese and selenium atom crystallographically independent, are formed by octahedra linked between them through the selenite oxoanions. The difference of both compounds consists in the stacking of the layers along the b-axis. The IR spectra show the characteristic bands of the selenite anion. Studies of luminescence performed at 6 K and diffuse reflectance spectroscopy have been carried out for both phases. The Dq and Racah (B and C) parameters, from luminescence and diffuse reflectance spectroscopy, are Dq=705, B=750, for (1) and Dq=720, B=745, for (2). The ESR spectra of both compounds are isotropic with g-values of 1.99(1). Magnetic measurements indicate the presence of antiferromagnetic couplings in both phases. The J-exchange parameters have been estimated by fitting the experimental magnetic data to a model for square-planar lattice. The values obtained are J/k=-0.83, −0.91 K and J^′/k=-0.97, −1.20 K, for polymorphs (1) and (2), respectively.     

Magnetic interactions in a series of paramagnetic Ln(III) complexes with a chelated imino nitroxide radical

The magnetic interactions in a new series of isostructural imino nitroxide radical lanthanide(III) complexes, [Ln(hfac)₃(IM2py)] (Ln = Gd–Yb: IM2py = 2-(2′-pyridyl)-4,5-dihydro-4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1H-imidazoline-1-oxy; hfac = 1,1,1,5,5,5-hexafluoro-2,4-pentanedione), are examined by considering the intrinsic paramagnetic contribution of the Ln(III) ion from the corresponding [Ln(hfac)₃(pybzim)] with a diamagnetic pybzim(2-(2-pyridyl)benzimidazole) ligand; the Ln(III)–IM2py interaction being antiferromagnetic for the 4f⁷ to 4f¹³ Ln(III) complexes and negligibly small for the other complexes. This series is the first example reverse to the previous cases for the series of Ln–Cu or Ln–aminoxyl(NIT) radical (4,5-dihydro-4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1H-imidazoline-3-oxide-1-oxy) complexes, other than only a few examples of semiquinone Ln complexes. This reverse nature of the magnetic interaction, as compared with the NIT complexes, validates the empirical approach by O. Kahn et al. [Inorg. Chem. 38 (1999) 3692; J. Am. Chem. Soc. 122 (2000) 3413] in the spin-coupled systems for a series of Ln(III) complexes.     

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.
