Abstract Organofunctionalized tetranuclear clusters [(MIICl)2(VIVO)2{((HOCH2CH2)(H)N(CH2CH2O))(HN(CH2CH2O)2)}2] (1, M=Co,2: M=Zn) containing an unprecedented oxometallacyclic {M2V2Cl2N4O8} (M=Co, Zn) framework have been prepared by solvothermal reactions. The new oxo‐alkoxide compounds were fully characterized by spectroscopic methods, magnetic susceptibility measurement, DFT and ab initio computational methods, and complete single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction structure analysis. The isostructural clusters are formed of edge‐sharing octahedral {VO5N} and trigonal bipyramidal {MO3NCl} units. Diethanolamine ligates the bimetallic lacunary double cubane core of1and2in an unusual two‐mode fashion, unobserved previously. In the crystalline state, the clusters of1and2are joined by hydrogen bonds to form a three‐dimensional network structure. Magnetic susceptibility data indicate weakly antiferromagnetic interactions between the vanadium centers [Jiso(VIV−VIV)=−5.4(1); −3.9(2) cm−1], and inequivalent antiferromagnetic interactions between the cobalt and vanadium centers [Jiso(VIV−CoII)=−12.6 and −7.5 cm−1] contained in1.

ND70 Series Basaltic Glass Reference Materials for Volatile Element ( H2O , CO2 , S, Cl, F) Measurement and the C Ionisation Efficiency Suppression Effect of Water in Silicate Glasses in SIMS
We present a new set of reference materials, the ND70‐series, forin situmeasurement of volatile elements (H2O, CO2, S, Cl, F) in silicate glass of basaltic composition. The materials were synthesised in piston cylinders at pressures of 1 to 1.5 GPa under volatile‐undersaturated conditions. They span mass fractions from 0 to 6%m/mH2O, from 0 to 1.6%m/mCO2and from 0 to 1%m/mS, Cl and F. The materials were characterised by elastic recoil detection analysis for H2O, by nuclear reaction analysis for CO2, by elemental analyser for CO2, by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy for H2O and CO2, by secondary ion mass spectrometry for H2O, CO2, S, Cl and F, and by electron probe microanalysis for CO2, S, Cl and major elements. Comparison between expected and measured volatile amounts across techniques and institutions is excellent. It was found however that SIMS measurements of CO2mass fractions using either Cs+or O−primary beams are strongly affected by the glass H2O content. Reference materials have been made available to users at ion probe facilities in the US, Europe and Japan. Remaining reference materials are preserved at the Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History where they are freely available on loan to any researcher.

ABSTRACT 2‐chloro‐3,3,3‐trifluoropropene, CF3C(Cl)═CH2(HCFO‐1233xf), is a volatile hydrochlorofluoroolefin, commonly used in industrial synthesis of other halogenated olefins. Kinetics and reaction mechanisms for the reactions of OH radicals, Cl atoms, and O3with CF3C(Cl)═CH2were investigated using FTIR/smog chamber studies in 700 Torr of air/N2diluent at 295 ± 2 K. The rate constantsk(Cl + CF3C(Cl)═CH2) = (8.3 ± 1.1) × 10−11,k(OH + CF3C(Cl)═CH2) = (3.4 ± 0.8) × 10−12andk(O3+ CF3C(Cl)═CH2) = (2.5 ± 0.1) × 10−21cm3molecule−1s−1, were measured. An atmospheric lifetime of 3.3 days for CF3C(Cl)═CH2was determined, dominated by reaction with OH radicals. The reaction of OH radicals and Cl atoms with CF3C(Cl)═CH2proceeds by addition to the double bond, and primary and secondary products of the reactions were quantified. Approximately 90% of Cl atoms undergo addition to the terminal carbon. We were unable to establish any preference of reaction site of the OH addition. Reaction of O3with CF3C(Cl)═CH2leads to the formation of Criegee intermediates that decompose yielding CF3C(O)Cl and HC(O)H as major products. An upper limit of < 0.3% for the yield CF3Cl was estimated. The integrated IR absorption cross‐section for CF3C(Cl)═CH2is (1.22 ± 0.06) × 10−16 cm molecule−1(600–1800 cm−1). The effective radiative efficiency was determined as 0.007 W m−2ppb−1leading to a Global Warming Potential (GWP) for the 100‐year time horizon of 0.031. The environmental impact of release of CF3C(Cl)═CH2to the atmosphere is discussed.more » « less

A comprehensive crystallographic study is presented of the complete series of rare-earth(III) chloride hydrates. Early lanthanides form dimeric [(H2O)7RE(μ-Cl)2RE(H2O)7]4+binuclear complexes in which eachREatom (RE= La3+, Ce3+) is coordinated by seven H2O molecules and two bridging inner-sphere chloride ions. Di-μ-chlorido-bis[heptaaqualanthanide(III)] tetrachloride, [(H2O)7RE(μ-Cl)2RE(H2O)7]Cl4, crystallizes in the triclinic space groupP1. Heavier lanthanides exhibit monomeric [RECl2(H2O)6]+units where eachREatom (RE= Pr3+, Nd3+, Sm3+–Lu3+) is coordinated by six H2O molecules and two inner-sphere chloride ions. Hexaaquadichloridolanthanide(III) chlorides, [RECl2(H2O)6]Cl, adopt the monoclinic space groupP2/c.In both structures, the cationicinner-spherecomplex is counter-charged by the corresponding number ofouter-sphereCl−anions, in which the metal ion and outer-sphere chloride ion lie on crystallographic twofold axes. Crystal structures for all compounds were determined in high quality with refined H-atom positions and were collected at the same temperature (100 K), providing a uniform structural dataset and addressing discrepancies in previous reports. The crystal structure of [HoCl2(H2O)6]Cl is reported for the first time.more » « less

The crystal structure of the title compound, hexaaquanickel(II) dichloride–1,4,7,10,13,16-hexaoxacyclooctadecane–water (1/2/2), [Ni(H2O)6]Cl2·2C12H24O6·2H2O, is reported. The asymmetric unit contains half of the Ni(OH2)6moiety with a formula of C12H32ClNi0.50O10at 105 K and triclinic (P1) symmetry. The [Ni(OH2)6]2+cation has close to ideal octahedral geometry with O—Ni—O bond angles that are within 3° of idealized values. The supramolecular structure includes hydrogen bonding between the water ligands, 18-crown-6 molecules, Cl−anions, and co-crystallized water solvent. Two crown ether molecules flank the [Ni(OH2)6]2+molecule at the axial positions in a sandwich-like structure. The relatively symmetric hydrogen-bonding network is enabled by small Cl−counter-ions and likely influences the more idealized octahedral geometry of [Ni(OH2)6]2+.more » « less

Abstract The racemic carbonate complex [Co(en)2O2CO]+Cl−(en=1,2‐ethylenediamine) and (S)‐[H3NCH((CH2)nNHMe2)CH2NH3]3+3 Cl−(n=1–4) react (water, charcoal, 100 °C) to give [Co(en)2((S)‐H2NCH((CH2)nNHMe2)CH2NH2)]4+4 Cl−(3 a–d H4+4 Cl−) as a mixture of Λ/Δ diastereomers that separate on chiral‐phase Sephadex columns. These are treated with NaOH/Na+BArf−(BArf=B(3,5‐C6H3(CF3)2)4) to give lipophilic Λ‐ and Δ‐3 a–d3+3 BArf−, which are screened as catalysts (10 mol %) for additions of dialkyl malonates to nitroalkenes. Optimal results are obtained with Λ‐3 c3+3 BArf−(CH2Cl2, −35 °C; 98–82 % yields and 99–93 %eefor six β‐arylnitroethenes). The monofunctional catalysts Λ‐ and Δ‐[Co(en)3]3+3 BArf−give enantioselectivities of <10 %eewith equal loadings of Et3N. The crystal structure of Δ‐3 a H4+4 Cl−provides a starting point for speculation regarding transition‐state assemblies.more » « less
