A novel metalorganic coordination polymer, namely [Co3(bpd)5.5(NCS)6(NH3)]n2H2O (1) (bpd=1,4-bis (4-pyridyl)-2,3-diaza-1,3-butadiene), has been synthesized and characterized by elemental analyses, infrared spectroscopy, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Compound 1 presents 2D[3,4,-connected 3-nodal net with the point symbol (4268210)(4462)(8210). In addition, four identical 2D single nets is interlocked with each other in parallel, thus directly leading to the formation of a polycatenated layer (2D2D).

ABSTRACTThe hydrocerussite-related phase, NaPb5(CO3)4(OH)3, has been found as colourless lamellar crystals in cavities within a pebble of the ancient marine slag collected in the Pacha Limani area of the Lavrion mining district, Attiki, Greece. This phase of anthropogenic origin was characterized by electron microprobe, infrared spectroscopy, powder and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The unique crystal structure (P63/mmc,a= 5.2533(11),c= 29.425(6) Å,V= 703.3(3) Å3andR1= 0.047) is based upon structurally and chemically different electroneutral blocks. Each of the blocks can be split into separate sheets. The outer sheets in each block are topologically identical and have the composition [PbCO3]0. The [Pb(OH)2]0lead hydroxide sheet is sandwiched between the two [PbCO3]0sheets resulting in the formation of the first block [Pb3(OH)2(CO3)2]0structurally and compositionally identical to that one in hydrocerussite Pb3(OH)2(CO3)2. Similarly the [Na(OH)]0sheet is sandwiched between another two [PbCO3]0sheets thus forming the [NaPb2(OH)(CO3)2]0block described previously in the structure of abellaite NaPb2(OH)(CO3)2. Stereochemically active lone electron pairs on Pb2+cations are located between the blocks. There are two blocks of each type per unit cell, which corresponds to the following formula: [Pb3(OH)2(CO3)2][NaPb2(OH)(CO3)2] or NaPb5(CO3)4(OH)3in the simplified representation. The formation of NaPb5(CO3)4(OH)3in Lavrion slags is by the contact of lead-rich slags with the sea water over the last two thousand years.

New noncovalent bonding polymer/clay hybrids were prepared, including the polymer poly(tetramethyl-p-phenylenediamine) (poly-TMPD). Polymerization occurred in the interlayer space of clay mineral successively after intercalation of monomers. Two types of clay minerals with different surface properties—a hydrophilic lithium fluorotaeniolite (TN) and four kinds of organophilic fluorotaeniolites (org-TNs)—were used as the hosts. Powder x-ray diffraction results showed an increase of 0.7–1.0 nm in the basal spacings, indicating the formation of poly–TMPD in the interlayer space of the hosts. Intercalative polymerization was also supported by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The orientation of the poly-TMPD and thermal behavior were also discussed.

A new Lindqvist polyoxometalate-based hybrid compound with a helical chain structure, [Cu(bipy)2][W6O19] (1), (bipy = 2;20`-bipyridine), has been hydrothermally synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetry, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The compound crystallizes in the space group C2/c of the monoclinic system. In 1, the [W6O19]2- anions are connected alternately with [Cu(bipy)2]2+ subunits to form a meso-helical chain. To our knowledge, this structure represents the first example of a helical chain structure consisting of the hexatungstate anion [W6O19]2-. The electrochemical properties of the title compound have been studied.

Poplar and pine wood were extracted with water, 1% NaOH (wt%) solution, and benzene:ethanol solution (V1 : V2, 2 : 1) to investigate the governing factors and mechanism by which extractives affect wood structure and mechanical properties. The structure, pore distribution, crystal structure, and mechanical properties of samples were analyzed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), adsorption of N2 gas, X-ray diffraction (XRD), and mechanical testing, respectively. The results demonstrated that cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin were degraded to some extent in the course of the dissolution of the extractives. This degradation had a great influence on the structure and quantity of pores. The extraction treatment did not change the crystallization type of the wood, but it increased the crystallinity of the wood, and the length and width of the crystallization area changed. In addition, the mechanical properties of wood were changed when the content of the extractives was reduced.

In this work, Fe3O4 nanoparticles (NPs) were synthesized using coprecipitation method and TiO2 NPs were synthesized using sonication method. Fe3O4/polyaniline and TiO2/polyaniline nanocomposites (NCs) were synthesized using polymerization methods. The samples were characterized by X-ray diffractometer, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, and ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy. The results of X-ray diffraction data analysis presented that polyaniline decreased the crystallinity of Fe3O4 and TiO2 NPs. However, the crystal structure of Fe3O4 and TiO2 NPs did not change, which successively formed the cubic spinel and the tetragonal anatase phases. Furthermore, the functional groups of Ti-O-Ti and Fe-O were detected in the wavenumber ranges of 620-580 cm-1 and 410-520 cm-1, respectively. The presence of polyaniline was also detected by the emergence of a functional group of polyaniline which also showed that there was an interaction of Fe3O4 and TiO2 NPs with polyaniline. Meanwhile, the results of UV-Vis data analysis showed that the addition of polyaniline decreased the bandgap energy of Fe3O4 and TiO2 NPs significantly from 2.186 to 2.174 eV and from 3.374 to 3.320 eV, respectively.

The alkaline earth tricyanomethanides Mg(tcm)2 · 2H2O, Ca(tcm)2, Sr(tcm)2 ・H2O and Ba(tcm)2 · 2H2O were prepared from aqueous solutions of the respective chlorides and silver tricyanomethanide. Their IR spectra and thermal behavior are described. The crystal structures of Ca(tcm)2 and Ba(tcm)2 · 2H2O were determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. The structure of Ca(tcm)2 is of the type found for several transition metal tricyanomethanides [1], containing two independent interpenetrating networks. Ba(tcm)2 · 2H2O has a unique crystal structure corresponding to a three-dimensional coordination polymer with nine fold coordinated Ba atoms connected by water molecules and tricyanomethanide anions.

Abstract [NMe4]2 [As4O2Cl10] · 2 CH3CN was recovered by the reaction of [NMe4][N3] with AsCl3 in CH3CN under aerobic conditions. This compound was also obtained directly by the reaction of AsCl3, AS2O3 and [NMe4][Cl] in acetonitrile. The structure was determined by X-ray diffraction. [NMe4]2 [As4O2Cl10] · 2 CH3CN crystallizes in theoorthorhombic space group Fmmm with a = 11.4144(8), b = 14.732(1) and c = 19.803(2) Å, with 4 formula units per unit cell. The frequencies obtained by Raman and infrared spectroscopy were assigned to the normal modes of the [As4O2Cl10]2- anion in comparison with computational results. The bonding situation in the [As4O2Cl10]2- anion was elucidated on the basis of an NBO analysis on the crystallographic data.

The structure and magnetostriction have been investigated for PrxTb1-xFe1.9Ti0.1 alloys by means of the X-ray diffraction phase analysis, vibrating sample magnetometer, and standard strain gauge technique. Comparing the structure of bulk and annealed samples, it can be found that the annealing treatment is of benefit to the formation of single phase with MgCu2-type crystal structure when x0.3. The magnetization at the maximal magnetic field decreases rapidly with increasing Pr content. The magnetostriction for Pr0.2Tb0.8Fe1.9Ti0.1 annealed sample at 900kA/m is 1733ppm. The magnetostriction for PrxTb1-xFe1.9Ti0.1 alloys at 900kA/m also decreases with increasing Pr content.
