Crystallographic and (spectro)electrochemical characterizations of cobalt(II) 10-phenyl-5,15-di-p-tolylporphyrin

2021

International audience; The synthesis, cyclic and rotating disk electrode voltammograms, UV-visible absorption and Xray diffraction analyses of cobalt(II) 10-phenyl-5,15-dip -tolylporphyrin (1-Co) are described. 1-Co was crystallized by slow diffusion of n-hexane into a concentrated CH2Cl2 solution. X-ray diffraction analyses reveals porphyrin aromatic cycle stacking in the crystal, C-H•••π interactions of the CH2Cl2 solvent with the π-system of one tolyl group and Co(II)•••π (porphyrin ring) interactions. The abstraction of 1.0 F/mol during the electrolysis at the first oxidation potential was followed by spectroelectrochemistry. It leads to the Co(II) → Co(III) transformation rather than …

Channeling experiments at planar diamond and silicon single crystals with electrons from the Mainz Microtron MAMI

2020

Line structures were observed for (110) planar channeling of electrons in a diamond single crystal even at a beam energy of 180 MeV . This observation motivated us to initiate dechanneling length measurements as function of the beam energy since the occupation of quantum states in the channeling potential is expected to enhance the dechanneling length. High energy loss signals, generated as a result of emission of a bremsstrahlung photon with about half the beam energy at channeling of 450 and 855 MeV electrons, were measured as function of the crystal thickness. The analysis required additional assumptions which were extracted from the numerical solution of the Fokker-Planck equation. Prel…

The Bi sulfates from the Alfenza Mine, Crodo, Italy: An automatic electron diffraction tomography (ADT) study

2014

We report about three bismuth sulfates from mineralized quartz dikes from Alfenza (Crodo, Italy), two new phases and a rare mineral, cannonite, all growing on bismuthinite. The first new phase occurs as white, "hortensia-like" aggregates of pseudo-hexagonal platelets, with perfect basal cleavage, similar to 20 mu m wide and few micrometers thick. The approximate composition is Bi2O2(SO4), and cell parameters and symmetry, as determined by automatic diffraction tomography, are a = 22.0(4), b = 16.7(3), c = 15.9(3) angstrom, beta = 102.9(5)degrees, space group Pc or P2/c. A major stacking disorder is detected by HR-SEM images and electron diffraction data.The second new phase was detected onl…

Thermoelectric properties of CoTiSb based compounds

2009

Several CoTiSb based compounds were synthesized and investigated on their thermoelectric properties. The aim was to improve the thermoelectric properties of CoTiSb by the systematic substitution of atoms or the introduction of additional Co into the vacant sublattice. The solid solutions Co1+xTiSb, Co1?yCuyTiSb and CoTiSb1?zBiz were synthesized. X-ray diffraction was used to investigate the crystal structure. The resistivity, the Seebeck coefficient and the thermal conductivity were determined for all compounds in the temperature range from 2 to 400?K. The highest figure of merit for each solid solution is presented. We were able to improve the figure of merit by a factor of approximately s…

Etude de polyesters avec du triphenylene ou du benzene comme cœur du discogene et des espaces flexibles alkylene

1992

A series of liquid-crystalline copolymers 1 with a chiral azobenzene moiety as photoreactive mesogenic unit was prepared. The polymers were fractionated and the mesophase behaviour of the high- and low-molecular weight fractions was examined. The copolymers display smectic A and cholesteric phases. For the cholesteric phases the pitch of the helix was determined, which ranges from 3 to 20 μm. Stable monolayers at the air-water interface were obtained from two monomers and one of the homopolymers. Multilayer assemblies of the azobenzene-containing polymers can be used to study photo-induced order/disorder transitions.

Selective derivatisation of resorcarenes. Part 5. Acylation of tetrabenzoxazine derivatives

2000

The reaction of the tetrabenzoxazines 2 with acetic anhydride under mild conditions leads selectively and exclusively to the tetraamides 3 in which the oxazine rings are opened; their structure was deduced from their 1H NMR spectra and confirmed for one example by an X-ray single crystal structure analysis; acylation of the hydroxy groups was not observed.

Hexagonal-columnar mesophases of acylated azacrowns with enhanced stabilities

1992

A series of discotic liquid crystals based on completely acylated macrocyclic oligoamines (azacrowns) has been synthesized. Discotic mesophases could be very highly stabilized by making use of an increased steric hindrance, caused by supplemental lateral meta-substituents which were introduced into the cinnamic acids used as the acylation agents. Employing this method yields compounds exhibiting hexagonal mesophases over a very broad range of more than 300°. Even if very large macrocycles are used as the core of such disc-shaped compounds, enantiotropic mesophases are achieved. Themeta-substituents as well as the size of the azacrowns were varied and their influence on the mesomorphic behav…

Ferrocenylbis(ylene) phosphoranes

1997

The ferrocenylbis(methylene)phosphorane Fc-P(=CTms 2 ) 2 ( 1 ) (Fc = −C 5 H 4 FeC 5 H 5 ) can be synthesized starting from ferrocenyldichlorophosphane FcPCl 2 or ferrocenyldilithiophosphane FcPLl 2 . The X-ray structure of ( 1 ) shows some unusual structural features, which indicate considerable electronic interaction of the ferrocenyl group and the σ 3 λ 5 -phosphorane unit. As a consequence of this interaction, the rotational barrier of the methylene bonds is extraordinary low. Therefore, in contrast to other bis(methylene)phosphoranes, the endo - and exo -Tms groups are indistinguishable on the NMR time scale even at −100°C. The analogous ferrocenylbis(imino)phosphorane Fc-P(=NTms) 2 ( 9…
