Effects of dynamical couplings in hydrogen bond systems in the polarized IR spectra of 3-hydroxybenzaldehyde and 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde crystals

This paper presents the investigation results of the polarized IR spectra of 3-hydroxybenzaldehyde and 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde crystals measured at 293 and 77 K. Analysis of the results concerned the linear dichroic, H/D isotopic and temperature effects observed in the spectra of the hydrogen and deuterium bond at the frequency ranges of the ν_O–H and the ν_O–D bands, respectively. The main spectral properties of the crystals were interpreted in terms of the “strong-coupling” theory on the basis of the hydrogen bond dimer model. The spectra revealed that the strongest vibrational exciton coupling involved the closely-spaced hydrogen bonds, each belonging to a different chain of associated molecules. The reason for two different crystalline systems, are characterized by almost identical ν_O–H and ν_O–D band shapes, is explained. It was proved that a random distribution of the protons and deuterons took place in the lattices of the isotopically diluted crystals.

Modified Ceria-Zirconia Fluorite-Like Catalysts for the Combustion of Methane

For dispersed ceria-zirconia-based solid solutions prepared via the polymerized complex method and annealed at 700℃, effects of bulk doping by Ca, Mn, Co, Bi or Nb cations and surface modification by Mn and Pt on their structural features, surface/bulk oxygen reactivity and catalytic activity in methane combustion are considered. With up to 20 mol% doping, a structural type of homogeneous solid solutions of anion-deficient fluorite with disordered anion vacancies is formed. Doping by transition metal cations or Pt increases the mobility and reactivity of the surface/bulk oxygen. A broad variation in specific rates of methane combustion for the studied systems was observed, suggesting structural sensitivity of this reaction. In general, there is no universal relationship between the oxygen mobility, the reactivity and the catalytic activity in methane combustion, which is explained by the factor of specific methane activation on surface active sites. For the Pt-promoted samples, Pt efficiency in methane activation depends on the Pt-support interaction, and the most favorable ones being mixed Pt/MnOx and Pt/NbOx clusters on the surface of the supports that exhibit high lattice oxygen mobilities.
