A novel oxovanadate structural type – Synthesis, single crystal structure and magnetic properties of a mixed-valence polyoxovanadate formed by {V17O4…
2007
Abstract A novel polyoxovanadate structural type, with an average nuclearity of V16, formed by a mixture of two different polyoxovananadates: {V15O36(Cl)} and{V17O40(Cl)} has been synthesized and characterized. The title compound, formulated as [Ni(phen)3]2{[V15O36(Cl)]0.5[V17O40(Cl)]0.5} · H2O (1) (phen = 1,10′-phenanthroline), presents two different polyoxovanadate architectures: {V15O36(Cl)} and {V17O40(Cl)}, with the last one representing a new framework type in polyoxovanadate chemistry. Here, we present the synthesis of this novel polyoxovanadate under hydrothermal conditions and its characterization by IR and XPS spectroscopies, elemental and thermogravimetric analysis, redox titrati…
Mössbauer Study of Lanthanum–Strontium Ferromanganite Oxides
2004
The La0.88Sr0.2Mn(1−y)Fey0(3±δ, i (LSMF with y = 0, 0.2, 0.5, 0.8, 1) compounds are prospective cathode materials for advanced solid oxide fuel cells (SOFC) application operating at 700° C. Usual analysis methods like thermogravimetric analysis or redox titration enable to determine the average oxidation state of both manganese and iron cations. The comparative role of iron and manganese in B-site was evaluated by 57Fe Mossbauer spectroscopy. Spectra revealed that the complete substitution of iron for manganese induces the formation of Fe5+ for the compound with y = 1. However, no tetravalent iron cation was observed in air for the LSMF compounds with y = 0.2, 0.5 and 0.8. This means that o…
Syntheses, structures and physical characterization of two new three-dimensional mixed-valence hexadecavanadate derivatives
2007
Abstract Two new hexadecavanadate derivatives, (bpy)[Zn(4,4′-bpy)2]2[H4ClV16O38]·6H2O 1 and (bpy)[Co(4,4′-bpy)2]2[H4ClV16O38]·6H2O 2 (bpy = 4,4′-bipyridine), were synthesized under the hydrothermal conditions and structurally characterized by IR, XPS and EPR spectroscopy, redox titration and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The two compounds are isostructural and crystallize in the tetragonal non-centrosymmetric space group P-4n2 (No. 118) with a = 17.124(2), b = 17.124(2), c = 14.724(3) A, V = 4317.5(12) A3 and Z = 1 for the compound 1, and a = 17.038(2), b = 17.038(2), c = 14.754(3) A, V = 4282.9(12) A3 and Z = 1 for the compound 2. Compounds 1 and 2 were constructed from 4-connected {H4…
Mössbauer spectroscopy on the reaction center of Rhodopseudomonas viridis
1992
Proteins called “reaction centers” (RC) can be isolated from many photosynthetic bacteria. They have one non-heme iron in a quinone acceptor region. The RC of Rhodopseudomonas viridis contains an additional tightly bound tetra-heme cytochrome c subunit. The electronic configuration of both cytochrome and the non-heme iron has been studied in the crystallized protein by Mossbauer spectroscopy at different redox potentials, pH-values, and with an addition of o-phenanthroline. At high potentials (Eh=+500mV) all heme irons are in the low spin Fe3+-state, and at low potential (Eh=−150mV) they are low spin Fe2+ with the same Mossbauer parameters for all hemes independent of pH. Redox titrations c…
Polysubstituted ferrocenes as tunable redox mediators
2018
A series of four ferrocenyl ester compounds, 1-methoxycarbonyl- (1), 1,1’-bis(methoxycarbonyl)- (2), 1,1’,3-tris(methoxycarbonyl)- (3) and 1,1’,3,3’-tetrakis(methoxycarbonyl)ferrocene (4), has been studied with respect to their potential use as redox mediators. The impact of the number and position of ester groups present in 1–4 on the electrochemical potential E1/2 is correlated with the sum of Hammett constants. The 1/1+–4/4+ redox couples are chemically stable under the conditions of electrolysis as demonstrated by IR and UV–vis spectroelectrochemical methods. The energies of the C=O stretching vibrations of the ester moieties and the energies of the UV–vis absorptions of 1–4 and 1+–4+ c…
