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…
High-Pressure Phase Diagram and Superionicity of Alkaline Earth Metal Difluorides
2018
We study the high-pressure–high-temperature phase diagram and superionicity of alkaline earth metal (AEM) difluorides (AF2, A = Ca, Sr, Ba) with first-principles simulation methods. We find that the superionic behavior of SrF2 and BaF2 at high pressures differ appreciably from that previously reported for CaF2 [Phys. Rev. Lett. 2014, 113, 235902]. Specifically, the critical superionic temperature of SrF2 and BaF2 in the low-pressure cubic fluorite phase is not reduced by effect of compression, and the corresponding high-pressure orthorhombic contunnite phases become superionic at elevated temperatures. We get valuable microscopic insights into the superionic features of AEM difluorides in b…
Optically detected magnetic resonance studied via the blue luminescence of Ti-doped
1998
The UV-excited blue and green luminescence bands of Ti:sapphire are characterized by ODMR. These emission bands are attributed to two centres, which show very similar properties and are created as a result of a charge-transfer transition of an electron from to ions. In both centres, the d electron of and the hole of are strongly coupled and form triplet states. Doublet systems can be ruled out as sources of the blue-green luminescence. The angular dependence of the ODMR can be explained with an appropriate spin Hamiltonian assuming orthorhombic local symmetry. The orientation of the principal axes of the g-tensor and the crystal-field tensor, found for both centres, suggest that the hole is…

One-Dimensional TiO2-B Crystals Synthesised by Hydrothermal Process and Their Antibacterial Behaviour on Escherichia coli
2016
We have successfully synthesised one-dimensional single crystals of monoclinic phase titanium dioxide nanostructures (TiO2-B), prepared by a hydrothermal process. Morphological characterization was carried out by atomic force and scanning and transmission electron microscopy techniques. In order to study the crystalline structure, samples were calcined at 500°C in an air-filled chamber. X-ray diffraction results indicated that as-prepared samples presented diffraction patterns of hydrate hydrogen titanate and those calcined at 500°C exhibited the TiO2-B and anatase phases, confirmed by Raman spectroscopy. Scanning electron microscopy results showed that the one-dimensional nanostructures ha…
Influence of Proton Conducting Cations on the Structure and Properties of 2D Anilate-Based Magnets
2017
The syntheses, structures, magnetic, and proton conductivity properties of a family of bimetallic anilate-based compounds with inserted alkylammonium cations are presented. The structures of (Me2NH2)[MnIICrIII(Br2An)3]·2H2O (1), (Et2NH2)[MnIICrIII(Br2An)3] (2), (Et3NH)[MnIICrIII(Cl2An)3] (3), and [(Et)(i-Pr)2NH]-[MnIICrIII(Br2An)3]·(CHCl3)0.5·(H2O) (4) contain a 2D anionic network formed by Mn(II) and Cr(III) ions linked through anilate ligands. In 1, 2, and 3, the hexagonal holes of this network are occupied by Me2NH2+, Et2NH2+, or Et3NH+ cations. Interestingly, the small increase of size of the templating cation in 4 ([(Et)(i-Pr)2NH]+ in the place of Me2NH2+, Et2NH2+ or Et3NH+), gives ris…
Thermodynamic and fluorescence emission studies on chemosensors containing anthracene fluorophores. Crystal structure of {[CuL1Cl]Cl}2·2H2O [L1 = N-(…
1999
The co-ordination capabilities toward hydrogen ions, Co2+, Ni2+, Cu2+, Zn2+ and Cd2+ of the novel receptor 2,6,9,13-tetraaza[14](9,10)anthracenophane (L) and of its open-chain counterpart N-(3-aminopropyl)-N′-3-(anthracen-9-ylmethyl)aminopropylethane-1,2-diamine (L1) is described. Stepwise protonation constants of the cyclic receptor (L) are lower than those of the open-chain receptor (L1) . Quenching effects of the fluorescence emission occur upon first and second deprotonation of L and upon second deprotonation of L1. Stability constants of the Co2+, Ni2+, Cu2+, Zn2+ and Cd2+ complexes follow the Irving–Williams trend and are intermediate between those of triethylenetetraamine with termin…
Structure of chloroantimonates(III) with an imidazolium cation: (C3H5N2)[SbCl4] and (C3H5N2)2[SbCl5]
2003
Abstract Two different chloroantimonates(III) with an imidazolium cation have been synthesized by the reaction of antimony trichloride and imidazole in an aqueous solution of hydrochloric acid. The crystals of (C3H5N2)[SbCl4] are monoclinic, space group C2/c, while (C3H5N2)2[SbCl5] crystallizes in the orthorhombic system, space group Pbcn. Both crystals are built of one dimensional zig-zag chains composed of [SbCl6]3− octahedra connected by edges and corners, respectively. The cavities between inorganic chains are filled by imidazolium cations. In both structures, one crystallographically independent imidazolium cation is rotationally disordered, and the positions of all atoms are split bet…

2000
During the mixing of ethylenediammonium dichloride and antimony trichloride except of reported earlier [NH3(CH2)2NH3]5(Sb2Cl11)2 · 4 H2O a new salt [NH3(CH2)2NH3](SbCl4)2 was obtained. The crystals are monoclinic at 295 K, space group C2/m, a = 13.829(3), b = 7.408(1), c = 7.588(2) A; β = 103.18(3)°; V = 756.9(3) A3; Z = 2; dc = 2.585, dm = 2.56(2) g · cm–3. The structure consists of anionic sublattice built of Sb2Cl82– units composed of two SbCl52– square pyramids connected by edge. The ethylenediammonium cations are located in anionic cavities. The cations are disordered. Each methylene carbon atom is split between two positions. The X-ray diffraction, DSC, TGA and dilatometric methods we…
