Crystal Structures of Double Vanadates LiCoVO4 and Li0.5Co1.25VO4

The crystal structures of vanadates Li_1-2xCo_1+xVO₄ with x = 0 and 0.25 have been studied by a full pattern analysis. It has been shown that in cubic spinel LiCoVO₄ (space group Fd3m), the 8a tetrahedral sites contain a majority of vanadium and a small amount of lithium; all cobalt, lithium, and a small amount of vanadium occupy the 16d octahedral sites. Li_0.5Co_1.25VO₄ crystals belong to the rhombic system (Imma space group) with unit cell parameters a = 5.939(1), b = 5.810(1), and c = 8.303(1). On substitution of lithium by cobalt according to the scheme 2Li⁺ Co²⁺ + , half of the lithium and 70% of the vacancies formed are in the 4a octahedral sites, and onethird of lithium and most of cobalt occupy the 4d octahedral sites. The 4e tetrahedral sites are completely occupied by vanadium and lithium in a ratio of 0.92/0.08. The interatomic distances in LiCoVO₄ and Li_0.5Co_1.25VO₄ are calculated, and the sizes of lithium ion transport channels are evaluated.     

Surface structure and electrochemical characteristics of natural graphite fluorinated by ClF3

Natural graphite samples with average particle sizes of 5, 10 and 15 μm (NG5 μm, NG10 μm and NG15 μm, respectively) were fluorinated by ClF₃ (3 × 10⁴ Pa) at 200 and 300 °C for 2 min. X-ray photoelectron spectra of surface-fluorinated samples showed that surface fluorine concentration increased with increase in the particle size of graphite and reaction temperature. Small amounts of chlorine were also detected in all the fluorinated samples. Raman spectra of original and surface-fluorinated samples indicated that the surface disordering was increased for NG10 μm and NG15 μm. Surface areas were decreased by the fluorination for NG5 μm and NG10 μm but unchanged for NG15 μm. The mesopores with diameter of 1.5-2 nm increased while those of 2-3 nm decreased for all the samples. First coulombic efficiencies for NG10 μm and NG15 μm were highly increased by surface fluorination in 1 mol/dm³ LiClO₄-EC/DEC/PC (EC: ethylene carbonate, DEC: diethyl carbonate, PC: propylene carbonate) solution.     

Convenient procedure of Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons olefination for the synthesis of simple and functionalized α,β-unsaturated nitriles

A mild and practical procedure of Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons olefination promoted by lithium hydroxide and α-cyano phosphonates has been set up for the synthesis of α,β-unsaturated nitriles. The reaction conditions are tolerated by functionalized ketones and the exclusive formation of E-γ-hydroxy α,β-unsaturated nitriles has been observed.     

Pyrolytic synthesis and Eu→Eu reduction process of blue-emitting perovskite-type BaLiF3:Eu thin films

Perovskite-type barium lithium fluoride (BaLiF₃) was synthesized by pyrolysis of metal trifluoroacetates. The reaction temperature necessary for producing a single-phase material was found to be 600°C, which was lower than that for a conventional solid-state reaction or a melting method. Eu-doped BaLiF₃ was also prepared and characterized to examine the suitability of trifluoroacetates for precursors in synthesizing homogeneous complex metal fluoride materials. It was demonstrated that trivalent Eu³⁺, which was used as acetate for a starting material, was reduced to divalent Eu²⁺ in the pyrolysis process of BaLiF₃, as indicated by a broad blue emission due to an allowed 4f⁶5d→4f⁷ transition at 408 nm with a ultraviolet excitation at 254 nm. The concentration quenching of the blue emission occurred at 5 at% of Eu in BaLiF₃, indicating that Eu was homogeneously dispersed in the BaLiF₃ host lattice. Mechanisms of the formation and reduction process of BaLiF₃ were discussed based on pertinent chemical reactions.     

锂离子二次电池电解质材料LiPF6的制备及表征

0引言 液态锂离子电池自1990年开发成功以来,由于具有比能量高、工作电压高、应用温度范围宽、自放电率低、循环寿命长、无污染、安全性能好等许多独特的优势[1],所以其发展前景十分广阔.目前液态锂离子二次电池中开发使用的无机阴离子导电盐主要有LiClO4、LiPF6、LiAsF6等,但LiClO4为强氧化剂,使用不安全而不宜用于电池,LiAsF6虽然性能颇佳,但有毒且价格较贵,故也不宜广泛使用.LiPF6被认为是目前较合适的电解质[1],但其制备困难,价格较贵,且目前报道的合成方法也多是以HF为介质[2～5].本文作者以PF5和LiF为原料在CH3CN溶剂中简单有效地合成了高纯LiPF6,并通过在手套箱中制样的方法对目标产物进行了红外、热重和X射线衍射分析,给出了LiPF6的红外光谱图、热重分析数据和X射线衍射图.     

Synthesis and electrochemical properties of spinel LiMn2O4 prepared by the rheological phase method

Pure-phase and well-crystallized spinel LiMn₂O₄ powders were successfully synthesized by a simple rheological phase method. The thermal behavior and structure properties of the powders prepared by the rheological phase method compared with the solid-state reaction were investigated by thermogravimetry, powder X-ray diffraction , scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. According to the results of the electrochemical tests, it is obvious that the sample resulting from the rheological phase method shows higher discharge capacity and better cycling stability than one formed in the solid-state reaction. The cyclic voltammogram and columbic efficiency curves also confirm that the product by the rheological phase method has a good cycling performance due to its fine cubic spinel structure and morphology.     

合成气制乙醇的铑基催化剂中助剂铁,锂的作用本质研究

催化活性测试表明,助剂Fe具有显著提高乙醇生成选择性及铑催化活性的双重作用;助剂Li具有显著提高乙醇选择性的作用,对铑催化活性影响不大。基于H_2/D_2同位素效应结果及CO化学吸附、IR、XRD、XPS等的表征结果,认为助剂Fe经活化处理后大部分与Rh形成RhFe合金,使Rh分散度显著提高,从而提高了乙醇的选择性;Rh分散度的提高以及小部分以Fe~(2+)(Fe~(3+))形式存在的助剂Fe促进甲酰基的生成及随后的氢解断C-O键反应是助剂Fe促使铑催化活性提高的两个因素。Li的主要作用在于通过与C_2含氧中间体乙烯酮氧端的弱亲合作用,促进了乙醇前驱体的生成,从而使乙醇生成选择性提高。

Synthese und Struktur von Li3RhH6, einem ternären Hydrid mit isolierten [RhH6]3−-Oktaedern

Synthesis and Structure of Li₃RhH₆ — a Ternary Hydride with Isolated [RhH₆]^3? Octahedra The ternary rhodium hydride Li₃RhH₆ was synthesized by the reaction of lithium hydride with rhodium under a hydrogen pressure of 80 bar. X-ray investigations on powdered samples and an elastic neutron diffraction experiment on the deuterated compound led to the complete structure determination (space group: Pnma, Z = 4). The atomic arrangement is isotypic to the Na₃RhH₆ structure type. The crystal structure contains isolated [RhH₆]^3? octahedra, which are separated by the lithium ions.
