Synthesis, Structure and Catalytic Properties of Dinuclear Mo-VI Complexes with Ditopic Diaminotetraphenols
2013
MoVI complexes with novel ditopic diaminotetraphenol ligands have been prepared by using a one-pot procedure in methanol or DMSO with [MoO2(acac)2] (acac = acetylacetonate) as the molybdenum source. The complexes were characterised with X-ray diffraction, NMR spectroscopic studies, elemental analysis and IR spectroscopy. In the solid state, the compounds represent either a rodlike molecular or oxido-bridged polymeric structure. The catalytic activity of the complexes was investigated by oxidising benzyl alcohol and 1-phenylethanol with hydrogen peroxide to the corresponding aldehyde and ketone, respectively. Furthermore, the catalytic activity was surveyed also in epoxidation of cyclooctene.
The water association band as a marker of hydrogen bonds in trehalose amorphous matrices
2017
The relevant role played by residual water in modulating the dynamics and structure of a protein, a matrix and their coupling has been thoroughly studied in bioprotective amorphous saccharide matrices via experiments and simulations. In order to better characterize this residual water and the hydrogen bond structures in which it is involved, in this work infrared spectroscopy experiments are conducted on trehalose-water systems. The properties of water are inferred from the study of a peculiar infrared band, the water association band, which we exploited as a marker of the hydrogen bonds in which water is involved. Our aim was the identification of populations of water molecules, which give…
Covalently bonded layer-by-layer assembly of multifunctional thin films based on activated esters.
2009
We demonstrate that chemically stable, multifunctional polymer thin films can be obtained using the layer-by-layer (LbL) deposition based on covalent bonds between adsorbing chains. Poly(pentafluorophenyl-4-vinylbenzoate) (P1) or poly(pentafluorophenylacrylate) (P2) polymers were assembled with poly(allyl amine) (PAAm) to yield LbL multilayer films through amide bond formation by the reaction between activated esters of P1 or P2 and amine groups in PAAm, which was quantitatively monitored by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). It was found that the difference in the solubility of P1 and P2 against ethanol, which was used as the solvent for PAAm, during the LbL deposition yields…
Organotin(IV) derivatives of the ambidentate ligand 2-thiouracil. Infrared, Mössbauer, 1H and 13C NMR studies
1984
Abstract Complexes Bu 2 n Sn(s 2 UraH −2 and [Me 2 SnOH] 2 (s 2 UraH −2 have been synthesized. Comparison of infrared spectra of the solid complexes with spectra of s 2 Ura and (PhHg) 2 (s 2 UraH −2 complex and point charge calculations (Mossbauer spectra) allow assignment of structures for the complexes of this ambivalent ligand. Polymeric structures are proposed for the complexes in the solid state, where the organometallic moieties are bonded to exocyclic S and N(3) atoms of the dianionic base, with formation of a four-membered chelate ring for Bu 2 n Sn(s 2 UraH −2 ). For [Me 2 SnOH] 2 (s 2 UraH −2 , 1 H and 13 C NMR data suggest retention of penta-coordination in trifluoacetic acid sol…
A Co-monosubstituted Keggin polyoxometalate with an antenna ligand and three cobalt(II) chains as counterion
2009
Abstract A Co-monosubstituted Keggin polyoxometalate with an antenna ligand linked to the Co(II) center with a Co(II)-containing cation has been prepared. The title compound, formulated as {Co(H 2 O) 4 (4,4′-bpy)} 2 (4,4′-Hbpy) 2 [SiW 11 Co(4,4′-bpy)O 39 ] · 5H 2 O ( 1 ) (4,4′-bpy = 4,4′-bipyridine), was synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectra, TG analysis, X-ray single crystal structure analysis and magnetic measurements. As far as we know, the title compound represents the first Co(II) substituted Keggin polyoxometalate with an antenna ligand structurally and magnetically characterized.
Rapid evaluation of oxidised fatty acid concentration in virgin olive oil using Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy and multiple linear regression
2011
Abstract Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), followed by multivariate treatment of spectral data, was used to evaluate the oxidised fatty acid (OFA) concentration in virgin olive oil samples characterised by different oxidative status. The entire FTIR spectra (4000–700 cm−1) of oils were divided in 25 wavelength regions. The normalised absorbances of the peak areas within these regions were used as predictors. In order to predict the OFA concentration, multiple linear regression (MLR) models were performed. After a cube root transformation of data, an MLR model constructed using eight predictors was able to predict OFA concentration with an average error of 17%. The main wavelen…
Polypyridyl-based Cu(II) coordination polymers: Synthesis, structural and magnetic characterizations
2015
Abstract New Cu(II) coordination polymeric neutral chains of formula [Cu 2 (1,4-tpbd)Cl 2 L 2 ] (1,4-tpbd = N,N,N ′ N ′-tetrakis(2-pyridylmethyl)benzene-1,4-diamine, L = 1,1,3,3-tetracyano-2-ethoxypropenide (tcnoet) − ( 1) or 1,1,3,3-tetracyano-2-propoxypropenide (tcnopr) − ( 2 )) have been synthesized and characterized by infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction and magnetic measurements. The crystal structure determinations of 1 and 2 reveal in both cases a one-dimensional structure in which the 1,4-tpbd acts as a bis-chelating ligand and the two chloride anions as asymmetrical bridging ligands. The Cu⋯Cu distances through the bis-chelating 1,4-tpbd ligand (8.194(1) and 8.245(3) A for 1 …
Infrared spectroscopy on lead silicate glass
1993
The reflectance spectra of some lead silicate glasses of general formula (PbO)x(SiO2)y have been measured in the infrared frequency range from 50 to 4000 cm−1. The dispersion and absorption spectra in the range 50–2000 cm−1 have been calculated from the reflectance data using the Kramers-Kronig relations. The band at ∼ 135 cm−1 is assigned to the stretching vibration of lead-oxygen bonds. The shoulder band of the silicon-oxygen stretching mode at ∼900 cm−1 shows a weak coupling of those bonds to the Pb2+ modifier. The vibration strength of those bands shows that the number of the Pb2+ modifier increases first up approximately to 50 Mol% with the increase of PbO content and then decreases ra…
Photolysis of Adsorbed Phases: Ethanoic Acid-Insulators and Semiconductors Systems. Influence of Acid-Base Properties.
1986
The paper reports the results of experiments in which the photodecomposition of adsorbed ethanoic acid (and in few cases of adsorbed acetone and ethanol) was carried out by using several silica gel samples, whose properties were modified by adding oxidic dopants as γ-Al2O3, which is acidic in character, and MgO, which is mainly basic. Also the related system MgO-Al2O3 was investigated. Few IR spectra on selected pure specimens and on specimens containing adsorbed ethanoic acid were recorded with the aim of following the variation of the surfaces-adsorbate interaction with the variation of the acid-base properties. It was also of interest to compare the photoreactivity of insulators and semi…
Effects of anions size on the redox behavior of poly(o-toluidine) in acid solutions. An in situ vis-NIR cyclic spectroelectrogravimetry study
2014
International audience; The combination of different in situ techniques allows a more complete analysis combining several physical and chemical processes of polymer-modified electrodes to be obtained. The hybrid technique -cyclic electrogravimetry coupled with visible-near infrared spectroscopy- was used to study in depth the electrochemistry of poly(o-toluidine) (POT) thin films. In this work, a POT modified electrode was polarized between the pernigraniline and leucoemeraldine forms in 0.5 M HNO3 and 0.5 M HClO4 solutions. The electrochromic properties of View the MathML sourcePOT-CIO4− and View the MathML sourcePOT-NO3− were localized in the experimental potential range associated to the…
