ABSTRACTThe layered compounds of formula LiNi0.4Mn0.6-yCoyO2, for y=0.2, 0.3, and 0.4 and LiNi0.7-yMn0.3CoyO2 for y=0.3, and 0.1 were synthesized at 800°C. X-ray powder diffraction indicates layered structure of R 3m symmetry similar to a-NaFeO2. Rietveld refinement data shows that Mn and Ni increase the tendency of transition metal ions to migrate into the interlayer sites relative to LiCoO2. Both magnetic susceptibility and XPS data support a 2+ oxidation state for Ni and 4+ and 3+ for Mn and Co, respectively. The layered compound LiNi0.4Mn0.4Co0.2O2 shows a high initial capacity of about 200mAh/g when cycled between 2.5V and 4.3 V at 20°C.

ABSTRACTThe compounds La1−xBaxTiO3 (0 ≤ × ≤ 1) have been prepared by arc melting stoichiometric amounts of LaTiO3 and BaTiO3. Single phase samples can be made for the entire stoichiometry range. The polycrystalline samples have been characterized by thermal gravimetric analysis, X-ray powder diffraction, and temperature dependent magnetic susceptibility. This series of compounds has been studied as a possible candidate for an early transition metal superconductor.

AbstractSingle-phase samples of T12Ba2CaCu2O8 and T12Ba2Ca2Cu3O10 have been prepared using a reliable and simple synthetic method. Samples were characterized by x-ray powder diffraction, magnetic susceptibility and four probe resistivity methods. The TcR=0 values for T12Ba2CaCu2O8 ranged from 100 to 105K, whereas those for T12Ba2Ca2Cu3O10 ranged from 96 to 107K. The relationship between the superconducting properties and the various preparation conditions are discussed.

We report here normal and superconducting properties of ABa 2 Cu 3 O 7−δ (with A=Y, Gd, Dy, and Er) and of Fe doped YBa2Cu3O7−δ . Results from X-ray powder diffraction, electrical resistivity, magnetic susceptibility, ESR, and specific heat measurements are presented, leading to a characterization of the magnetic properties of these materials. The effect of structural modifications of the lattice on the superconducting properties and the relative insensitivity of Tc to the presence of magnetic moments is discussed.

Polycrystalline rubidium superoxide (RbO2) has been synthesized by using solution method followed by the reaction process under the cooling condition of-40 °C. X-ray Powder Diffraction (XRD) spectra showed that RbO2 was successfully synthesized by this method. The magnetic susceptibility and pulsed muon spin relaxation (μSR) measurements were carried out in order to study the magnetic properties of RbO2.

ABSTRACTRecently there has been much interest in reacting vanadium oxides hydrothermally with cationic surfactants to form novel layered compounds. A series of new transition metal oxides, however, has also been formed at or near room temperature in open containers. Synthesis, characterization, and proposed mechanisms of formation are the focus of this work. Low temperature reactions of vanadium pentoxide and ammonium (DTA) transition metal oxides with long chain amine surfactants, such as dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide yielded interesting new products many of which are layered phases. DTA4H2V10O28•8H2O, a layered highly crystalline phase, is the first such phase for which a single crystal X-ray structure has been determined. The unit cell for this material was found to be triclinic with space group P 1 and dimensions a=9.895(1)Å, b=11.596(1)Å, c=21.924(1)Å, α=95.153(2)°, β=93.778(1)°, and γ= 101.360(1)°. Additionally, we synthesized a dichromate phase and a manganese chloride layered phase, with interlayer spacings of 26.8Å, and 28.7Å respectively. The structure, composition, and synthesis of the vanadium compound are described, as well as the synthesis and preliminary characterization of the new chromium and manganese materials.

AbstractThe transition metal forms of α-zirconium-. titanium-, and hafnium phosphates were prepared by ion exchange method. Their structure was investigated by X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD) method. It was found that the transition metal containing phosphates have the same layered structure as the pristine tetravalent metal phosphates, except for the increase of interlayer distance from 7.6 Å to ∼9.5 Å. As a result of the incorporation of transition metals in the layers, the c-axis is increased from ∼15 Å to ∼20 Å (in the case of titanium phosphate to ∼25 Å). All other parameters (a, b and β °) are practically unchanged.

New metal complexes of some transition metal ions Co(II), Cu(II) , Cd(II) and Zn(II) were prepared by their reaction with previously prepared ligands HLI= (P-methyl anilino) phenyl acetonitrile and HLII = (P-methyl anilino) –P– chloro phenyl acetonitrile . The two ligands were prepared by Strecker’s procedure which includ the reaction of p- toluidine with benzaldehyde and P- chlorobenzaldehyde respectively. Structures were proposed depending on atomic absorption , i.r. and u.v.visible spectra in addition to magnetic susceptibility and electrical conductivity measurements.

The reactions of the Schiff base 2-((2-hydroxyphenylimino)methyl)-6-methoxyphenol (H2L), obtained by direct condensation of 2-aminophenol and 2-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzaldehyde, with some transition  metal ions (Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II)) afforded complexes of general formulae [M2(L)2(solvent)x] (M: Mn, Co, Ni, Cu or Zn; Solvent: DMSO or H2O). These compounds were characterized by elemental analysis, UV-Vis, IR, 1H- and 13C-NMR spectroscopies, molar conductivity and room temperature magnetic measurements. The structure of zinc(II) complex has been determined by X-ray crystallography. Crystal data for C32H34N2O8S2Zn2 (M =769.47 g/mol): Orthorhombic, space group Pbca (no. 61), a = 16.3176(7) Å, b = 9.1247(3) Å, c = 21.8274(10) Å, V = 3250.0(2) Å3, Z = 4, T = 173(2) K, μ(MoKα) = 1.658 mm-1, Dcalc = 1.573 g/cm3, 28116 reflections measured (4.5° ≤ 2Θ ≤ 60.3°), 4457 unique (Rint = 0.0409, Rsigma = 0.0371) which were used in all calculations. The final R1 was 0.0307(0.0466) and wR2 was 0.0649 (0.0701) (all data). The coordination sphere of the Zn center is best described as a trigonal bipyramid.

A new series of octahedral cobalt(II) complexes are formed when CoX2(X = Cl, Br, I, SCN) reacts with Hg(SCN)2 in the presence of Lewis bases. These complexes of stoichiometry CoHg(SCN)4•2L (L = THF, dioxane, pyridine, aniline) are pink to violet solids which slowly decompose to the blue crystalline solid, CoHg(SCN)4, the stable magnetic susceptibility standard. On further reaction of CoHg(SCN)4•2THF with mono-, bi-, and polydentate ligands in dry ethanol, complexes of the following types are obtained: CoHg(SCN)4•2L (L = PΦ3), CoHg(SCN)4•2LL (LL = trien), CoHg(SCN)4•3LL (LL = en, bipy), and CoHg(SCN)4•4LL (LL = phen). The stoichiometry of these were determined by elemental analysis. Possible structures of these are discussed with the help of mid and far infrared, visible, and ultraviolet spectroscopy, magnetic susceptibility, and X-ray powder diffraction. Some new i.r. bands like Co—P, Co—N, and Hg—S are assigned in the low region.
