The Stability

AbstractPolycrystalline pyrochlore oxides consisting of selected f elements (lanthanides and actinides) and Zr and Hf have been prepared and characterized. Characterization to date has been primarily by X-ray diffraction, both at room and at elevated temperatures. Initial studies concentrated on selected lanthanides and the Np, Pu and Am analogs (reported here) but have been extended to the other actinide elements through Cf. Data from these studies have been used to establish a systematic correlation regarding the fundamental materials science of these particular pyrochlores and structurally related fluorite-type dioxides. In addition to pursuing their materials science, we have addressed some potential technological applications for these materials. Some of the latter concern: (1) immobilization matrices; (2) materials for transmutation concepts; and (3) special nuclear fuel forms that can minimize the generation of nuclear wastes. For f elements that display both a III and IV oxidation state in oxide matrices, the synthetic path required for producing the desired pyrochlore oxide is dictated by their pseudo-oxidation potential the stability of the compound towards oxygen uptake. For the f elements that display an oxidationreduction cycle for pyrochlore-dioxide solid solution, X-ray diffraction can be used to identify the composition in the oxidation-reduction cycle, the oxygen stoichiometry and/or the composition. This paper concentrates on the Np, Pu and Am systems, and addresses the above aspects, the role of the crystal matrix in controlling the ceramic products as well as discussingsome custom-tailored materials.

The effect of cyanide on the steady-state oxidation of ferrocyanide by horseradish peroxidase was studied at pH values 9.00, 7.10, and 5.00. An inhibition was observed which could be explained by the binding of cyanide only to native horseradish peroxidase. Spectra in the Soret region supported these conclusions.

The Difference

The electron-transfer oxidation-reduction chemistry for the alkyl derivatives of iron and cobalt porphyrins [( por ) M III − R ] has been characterized on the basis of cyclic voltammetric and controlled-potential-electrolysis measurements. The electrogenerated anions of iron and cobalt porphyrins [( por ) M − and ( por −·) M −] are strong nucleophiles that react with alkyl halides ( RX ) via a nucleophilic displacement process to form metal-carbon bonds [( por ) M - R and ( por −·) M - R ]. The difference in the reduction potentials for RX and ( por ) M II provides an approximate measure of the ( por ) M - R bond-formation free energy (−ΔG BF ). The −ΔG BF values for iron porphyrins (14–35 kcal mol−1) and for cobalt porphyrins (20-38 kcal mol−1) depend on the electron density of the porphyrin ring ( OEP > TPP > Cl 8 TPP > F 20TPP) and the structure of the alkyl group (1° > 2° > 3°). Thus, the apparent metal-carbon bond energy (−ΔG BF ) for ( OEP ) Fe III- Bu -n is 28 ± 2 kcal mol−1, and for [( MeO )4 TPP ] Co III- Bu -n is 36 ± 2 kcal mol −1. The ( por −·) M − dianions react with carbon dioxide in an electrocatalysed reduction cycle to give CO and CO 32− via the apparent transient formation of a metal-carbon bond [( por −·) M - C ( O ) O −; −Δ G BF ≥ 12 kcal mol −1 for iron porphyrins].
