Purely Spectroscopic Determination of the Spin Hamiltonian Parameters in High-Spin Six-Coordinated Cobalt(II) Complexes with Large Zero-Field Splitti…
2019
Accurate determination of the spin Hamiltonian parameters in transition-metal complexes with large zero-field splitting (ZFS) is an actual challenge in studying magnetic and spectroscopic properties of high-spin transition metal complexes. Recent critical papers have convincingly shown that previous determinations of these parameters, based only on the magnetic data, have low accuracy and reliability. A combination of X-band electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy and SQUID magnetometry seems to be a more convincing and accurate approach. However, even in this case, the accuracy of the determination of the spin Hamiltonian parameters is strongly limited. In this work, we propose …
Sodium-mediated manganation: direct mono- and dimanganation of benzene and synthesis of a transition-metal inverse-crown complex.
2007
Inside out approach: Twofold deprotonation of benzene by a sodium monoalkyl bisamido manganate(II) reagent derived from BuNa, 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine, and Mn(CH2SiMe3)2 has produced the first inverse-crown complex in which the transition-metal atoms are incorporated in the host (see X-ray structure, blue N, green Na, purple Mn). Variable-temperature magnetization measurements show that the complex is antiferromagnetic.
An Inorganic Double Helix Sheathing Alkali Metal Cations: ANb2P2S12(A=K, Rb, Cs), A Series of Thiophosphates Close to the Metal-Nonmetal Boundary-Cha…
2004
The new quaternary niobium thiophosphates ANb 2 P 2 S 1 2 (A=K, Rb, Cs) have been prepared and characterized. The title compounds were synthesized by reacting Nb metal, A 2 S, P 2 S 5 , and S at 600-700°C in evacuated silica tubes. They crystallize as "stuffed" variants of the tetragonal TaPS 6 structure type in the tetragonal space group I42d with eight formula units per unit cell and lattice constants a=15.923(2) and c=13.238(3) A for CsNb 2 P 2 S 1 2 , a= 15.887(3) and c=13.132(3) A for RbNb 2 P 2 S 1 2 , and a=15.850(2) and c= 13.119(3) A for KNb 2 P 2 S 1 2 . Their structures are based on double helices formed from interpenetrating, noninteracting spiral chains of binuclear [Nb 2 S 1 2…
Formation, structure and reactivity of boryloxycarbyne complexes of group 6 metals.
2003
Reaction of the diborane(4) B(2)(NMe(2))(2)I(2) with two equivalents of K[(eta(5)-C(5)H(5))M(CO)(3)] (M=Cr, Mo, W) yielded the dinuclear boryloxycarbyne complexes [[(eta(5)-C(5)H(5))(OC)(2)M(triple bond)CO](2)B(2)(NMe(2))(2)] (4 a, M=Mo; b, M=W; c, M=Cr), which were fully characterised in solution by multinuclear NMR methods. The Mo and W complexes 4 a, b proved to be kinetically favoured products of this reaction and underwent quantitative rearrangement in solution to afford the complexes [[(eta(5)-C(5)H(5))(OC)(2)M(triple bond)CO]B(NMe(2))B(NMe(2))[M(CO)(3)(eta(5)-C(5)H(5))]] (5 a, M=Mo; b, M=W); 5 a was characterised by X-ray crystallography in the solid state. Corresponding reactions of…

Gold catalysts supported on CeO2 and CeO2–Al2O3 for NO reduction by CO
2006
Abstract The reduction of NO x by CO was studied over gold catalyst supported on ceria and ceria–alumina. The mixed supports with different CeO 2 /Al 2 O 3 ratios were prepared by co-precipitation. The catalysts were characterized by means of XRD, TPR, XPS and Raman spectroscopy. The addition of alumina led to a slight enlargement of the gold particles, while the ceria particle size was decreased. Deeper oxygen vacancies formation in the presence of alumina was detected by TPR, XPS and Raman spectroscopy, compared to the pure ceria support. The samples exhibited a high and stable activity and 100% selectivity towards N 2 was reached at 200 °C.
Effect of Ti(IV) loading on CO oxidation activity of gold on TiO2 doped amorphous silica
2006
Abstract Amorphous SiO 2 , doped with various amount of TiO 2 , was used as support for gold nanoparticles. Gold was deposited through the controlled sol formation technique. The effect of the TiO 2 loading on the structural and surface properties was investigated by transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, Raman and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The catalytic behavior was tested in the oxidation of CO. A significant enhancement in the activity was observed for the gold supported on mixed oxide with low TiO 2 loading. On the basis of characterization data, the positive effect is assigned to the electronic modification of the Ti(IV) of the newly formed Ti O Si bonds.
Surface characterisation of metal ions loaded TiO2 photocatalysts: structure–activity relationship
2004
Abstract Transition metal loaded TiO 2 powders were characterised and tested for the photodegradation of some organic acids. Both Lewis and Bronsted surface acid sites were present in the samples containing large amounts of Mo, V and W. The Bronsted sites are associated to the presence of the transition metals as they do not exist in the unloaded support, and in particular to the presence of these metals in high oxidation states. The trend of the pzc values of the various powders matches rather well both with the surface acidity of the samples experimentally determined by NH 3 adsorption and with a scale of acidity/basicity for bulk binary oxides. XPS investigation indicates that only the p…
Structural characterisation of silica supported CoMo catalysts by UV Raman spectroscopy, XPS and X-ray diffraction techniques
2002
The structure of Co-Mo catalysts supported on commercial silica, doped with various amounts of sodium ions, was investigated by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD), UV-Raman spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Two series of samples were considered. One series was prepared by classic incipient wet impregnation (WI) and the other series by co-impregnation in the presence of nitrilotriacetic acid (NTA). The effect of sodium on the catalyst structure depended on the preparation procedure: in the case of the WI catalysts, sodium promoted the transformation of the polymolybdate species into monomolybdate Na2MoO4; in the case of the NTA prepared samples, sodium induced transforma…
Synthesis, Structure, and Electrical Properties of Ta 4 FeTe 4
1995
Ta4FeTe4 has been synthesized and its structure determined by single-crystal X-ray methods. It crystallizes in the ortho-rhombic space group Pbam with Z = 4 and a = 10.514(5), b = 18.275(7), and c = 4.815(1) A. Ta4FeTe4 has a chain structure built up by Fe-centered Ta8-square antiprisms sharing common square faces. The resistivity of Ta4FeTe4 has been measured by a two-point method. Ta4FeTe4 shows metallic behavior. The structure of Ta4FeTe4 is discussed in relation to other early transition metal cluster compounds. A rational approach to the synthesis of related compounds is proposed.
