The strong Lewis acid tungsten oxo complex of calix[4]arene can be obtained in both hydrated and non-hydrated forms. This complex coordinates a water molecule inside the cavity via strong O···W interactions with relatively short distances of 2.284(4) and 2.329(2) Å for the tungsten oxo complex of calix[4]arene··H2O·aniline (1), and the tungsten oxo complex of calix[4]arene·H2O·toluene (2·toluene), respectively. The strong interactions are also deduced by the relatively high H2O elimination temperature observed by TGA and DSC (above 200 °C). The coordinated water molecule inside the calix[4]arene cavity is characterized by a strong IR absorption at 3616 cm–1, and a narrow resonance at ~1.2 ppm (the chemical shifts of the uncoordinated water are 1.55 and 1.60 ppm in C6D6 and CDCl3, respectively). This water molecule gives rise to H-bonds with aniline in 1. The tungsten oxo complex of 5,11,17,23-tetrabromocalix[4]arene (4), also binds H2O as the characteristic signatures are observed. The successful removal of H2O in 2, is performed under mild conditions using bis(tetrahydrofuran)-uranyl nitrate as a competitive Lewis acid. When this reaction is performed in acetonitrile, butyronitrile or tert-butylnitrile, the corresponding tungsten oxo complexes of calix[4]arene·acetonitrile (3), ·butyronitrile (5), and ·tert-butylnitrile (6) are obtained. The use of uranyl as a H2O abstractor is unprecedented. The X-ray structure of 3 consists of a tungsten oxo complex of calix[4]arene coordinated by an acetonitrile molecule (d(W···N = 2.412(2) Å). The tetra-5,11,17,23-choromethyl-25,26,27,28-tetrahydroxycalix[4]arene reacts with M(O)Cl4 (M = Mo, W) in a 1:1 stoichiometry, via a tetra Friedel–Crafts addition of benzene or toluene, followed by a lower-rim complexation of the metal oxide, to form "flower-shaped" calix[4]arenes. This "one pot" double functionalization is unprecedented.Key words: calix[4]arene, tungsten, molybdenum, X-ray, host–guest, Friedel–Crafts, Lewis acid, uranyl, DSC, TGA.

One Step

A new method for fast and simple synthesis of crystalline TiO2 nanoparticles with photocatalytic activity was developed by carrying out a classic sol–gel reaction directly under vacuum. The use of microwaves for fast heating of the reaction medium further reduces synthesis times. When the solvent is completely removed by vacuum, the product is obtained in the form of a powder that can be easily redispersed in water to yield a stable nanoparticle suspension, exhibiting a comparable photocatalytic activity with respect to a commercial product. The present methodology can, therefore, be considered a process intensification procedure for the production of nanotitania.

Composite Aerogels

Novel Mn–Ce–Ti–O composite aerogels with large mesopore size were prepared via a one-pot sol–gel method by using propylene oxide as a network gel inducer and ethyl acetoacetate as a complexing agent. The effect of calcination temperature (400, 500, 600, and 700 °C) on the NH3–selective catalytic reduction (SCR) performance of the obtained Mn–Ce–Ti–O composite aerogels was investigated. The results show that the Mn–Ce–Ti–O catalyst calcined at 600 °C exhibits the highest NH3–SCR activity and lowest apparent activation energy due to its most abundant Lewis acid sites and best reducibility. The NO conversion of the MCTO-600 catalyst maintains 100% at 200 °C in the presence of 100 ppm SO2, showing the superior resistance to SO2 poisoning as compared with the MnOx–CeO2–TiO2 catalysts reported the literature. This should be mainly attributed to its large mesopore sizes with an average pore size of 32 nm and abundant Lewis acid sites. The former fact facilitates the decomposition of NH4HSO4, and the latter fact reduces vapor pressure of NH3. The NH3–SCR process on the MCTO-600 catalyst follows both the Eley–Rideal (E–R) mechanism and the Langmuir–Hinshelwood (L–H) mechanism.
