Abstract The stability and acid-base properties of MON2O mixed oxides (where M = Be, Mg, Ca; N = Li, Na, K) are studied by using ab initio methods. It is demonstrated that (i) the basicity of such designed systems evaluated by estimation of electronic proton affinity and gas-phase basicity (defined as the electronic and Gibbs free energies of deprotonation processes for [MON2O]H+) were found significant (in the ranges of 272–333 kcal/mol and 260–322 kcal/mol, respectively); (ii) in each series of MOLi2O/MONa2O/MOK2O the basicity increases with an increase of the atomic number of alkali metal involved; (ii) the Lewis-acidity of the corresponding [MON2O]H+ determined with respect to hydride anion (assessed as the electronic and Gibbs free energies of H− detachment processes for [MON2O]H2) decreases as the basicity of the corresponding oxide increases. The thermodynamic stability of all [MON2O]H2 systems is confirmed by estimating the Gibbs free energies for the fragmentation processes yielding either H2 or H2O.

Perovskite Type

The electron donor properties of perovskite-type mixed oxides (LaFeO3, PrFeO3, SmFeO3, LaCoO3, PrCoO3, SmCoO3, LaNiO3, PrNiO3 and SmNiO3) were studied based on the adsorption of electron acceptors exhibiting different electron affinity viz. 7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane, 2,3,5,6-tetrachloro-1,4-benzoquinone, p-dinitrobenzene, and m-dinitrobenzene. The surface acidity/basicity of the oxides was determined using a set of Hammett indicators. The data were correlated with the catalytic activity of the oxides for the reduction of cyclohexanone with 2-propanol.

Complete Geometry Optimization

MINDO-Forces calculations with complete geometry optimization have been performed on α- substituted acetaldehydes XCH2CH=O and their enols (X = H, F, OH, CN, NH2, NO2, CH3, CF3, OCH3). All substituents were found to decrease the stability of the acetaldehyde and mostly in the case of electron withdrawing capacity (e. g NO2 and CF3). This agrees with theoretical calculations, except in the case of F. The substituent effects on the stabilities in this study are compared with results obtained from our previous theoretical calculations on acetyl derivatives. Geometrical parameters, electron densities, and Gibbs free energies are reported.

Double Hydroxides

Layered double hydroxides (LDH) or their derived mixed oxides present marked acid-base properties useful in catalysis, but they are generally agglomerated, inducing weak accessibility to the active sites. In the search for improving dispersion and accessibility of the active sites and for controlling the hydrophilic/hydrophobic balance in the catalysts, nanocomposite materials appear among the most attractive. In this study, a series of nanocomposites composed of LDH and reduced graphene oxide (rGO), were successfully obtained by direct coprecipitation and investigated as base catalysts for the Claisen–Schmidt condensation reaction between acetophenone and benzaldehyde. After activation, the LDH-rGO nanocomposites exhibited improved catalytic properties compared to bare LDH. Moreover, they reveal great versatility to tune the selectivity through their composition and the nature or the absence of solvent. This is due to the enhanced basicity of the nanocomposites as the LDH content increases which is assigned to the higher dispersion of the nanoplatelets in comparison to bulk LDH. Lewis-type basic sites of higher strength and accessibility are thus created. The nature of the solvent mainly acts through its acidity able to poison the basic sites of the nanocatalysts.

The Stability

ABSTRACTOn the basis of consideration of the properties of AI, In, Ln, Ti, Zr, Hf, NbO3+, MoO4+, WO4+, MoO22+ MO22+, Fe, Co, Ni alkoxide derivatives the main regularities in poly- and oligomerization properties have been deduced:1) The molecular complexity increases in time (aging) and on action of alcohols. This process is followed by the increase in the melting and boiling points, decrease in solubility in ROH and weakening of colour. In the mass-spectra - in connection with the temperature of transition into the gas phase - increases the stability of products with lower molecular masses. 2) oligomerization occurs on dissolution in aromatic hydrocarbons or on a short thermal treatment (melting, distillation). The oligomerization products possess lower thermal constants, higher solubility in ROH and more intense colour. Their mass- spectra are containing the fragments of higher masses corresponding to oligomers existing apparently also in the condensed phase.The mastering of these regularities permits the monitoring of molecular composition and thus physicochemical properties of the samples which are of importance for their technological application.The presence of oxoalkoxides in the “M(OR)n” samples should be taken into consideration on the preparation of solutions used in the synthesis of powders and films of pure simple and mixed oxides.
