Trivalent f-Element Squarates, Squarate-Oxalates, and Cationic Materials, and the Determination of the Nine-Coordinate Ionic Radius of Cf(III)

The synthesis, structure, and solid-state UV–vis–NIR spectroscopy of four new f-element squarates, M 2 (C 4 O 4 ) 3 (H 2 O) 4 (M = Eu, Am, Cf) and Sm(C 4 O 4 )(C 4 O 3 OH)(H 2 O) 2 ·0.5H 2 O, four new cationic lanthanide squarate chlorides, [M 4 (C 4 O 4 ) 5 (H 2 O) 12 ]Cl 2 ·5H 2 O (M = Eu, Dy, Ho Er), and two new actinide squarate oxalates, M 2 (C 4 O 4 ) 2 (C 2 O 4 )(H 2 O) 4 (M = Am, Cf), are presented. All of the metal centers are trivalent. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis reveals that M 2 (C 4 O 4 ) 3 (H 2 O) 4 and Sm(C 4 O 4 )(C 4 O 3 OH)(H 2 O) 2 ·0.5H 2 O have a two-dimensional sheet structure constructed from MO 7 (H 2 O) 2 monocapped square-antiprismatic (coordination number (CN) = 9) metal centers and SmO 6 (H 2 O) 2 square-antiprismatic (CN = 8) metal centers, respectively, whereas M 2 (C 4 O 4 ) 2 (C 2 O 4 )(H 2 O) 4 have a three-dimensional (3D) structure constructed from MO 7 (H 2 O) 2 monocapped square-antiprismatic (CN = 9) metal centers. Additionally, the cationic framework materials [M 4 (C 4 O 4 ) 5 (H 2 O) 12 ]Cl 2 ·5H 2 O have a 3D structure constructed from two crystallographically unique MO 5 (H 2 O) 3 square-antiprismatic (CN = 8) metal centers. In these structures, the squarate ligands bind to the metal centers with varying coordination modes and denticities. The results of this study provide another example of the nonparallel chemistry between the lanthanides and transplutonium elements. From the crystallographic data for the isotypic series M 2 (C 4 O 4 ) 3 (H 2 O) 4 (M = La–Nd, Sm, Eu) and the linear regression fit to a plot of the unit cell volume as a function of the cube of the ionic radius, the nine-coordinate ionic radius of Cf 3+ was determined to be 1.127 ± 0.003 Å. Lastly, computational analysis of the americium and californium complexes M 2 (C 4 O 4 ) 3 (H 2 O) 4 and M 2 (C 4 O 4 ) 2 (C 2 O 4 )(H 2 O) 4 reveals three important attributes: (i) the 5f orbitals are nonbonding in all cases, with the bonding differences occurring with the empty 6d orbitals; (ii) the Cf complexes exhibit more covalent character than their Am counterparts; and (iii) there is more covalent character in the squarate-oxalate complexes than in the squarate complexes.

Electrical, thermal, and H 2 O and CO 2 poisoning behaviors of PrNi 0.5 Co 0.5 O 3-δ electrode for intermediate temperature protonic ceramic electrochemical cells

PrNi 0.5 Co 0.5 O 3-δ (PNC) exhibits adequate total electrical conductivity (~300 S/cm at 400–600 °C) and moisture has no significant effect on it. The thermal expansion coefficient of PNC is 17.6 × 10 –6 /K by dilatometry and 18.43 × 10 –6 /K by in situ XRD. PNC also demonstrates chemical stability against H 2 O and CO 2 . However, PNC symmetrical cell over proton-conducting BaZr 0.4 Ce 0.4 Y 0.1 Yb 0.1 O 3-δ (BZCYYb4411) electrolyte shows significant H 2 O and CO 2 poisoning when those are introduced into O 2 –N 2 mixture. In comparison, symmetrical cells with PNC electrode over the oxygen ion conducting Ce 0.9 Gd 0.1 O 2-δ (GDC) electrolyte show no H 2 O and CO 2 poisoning under similar conditions. Here, it is hypothesized that poisoning from H 2 O and CO 2 of the PNC proton conducting symmetrical cell is caused by their adsorption on the BZCYYb4411 electrolyte instead of PNC electrode. Such a hypothesis is supported by the H 2 O and CO 2 adsorption behaviors on PNC and BZCYYb4411 powder surfaces, as measured by temperature programmed desorption (TPD).

Reactive Species and Reaction Pathways for the Oxidative Cleavage of 4-Octene and Oleic Acid with H 2 O 2 over Tungsten Oxide Catalysts

The oxidative cleavage of carbon-carbon double bonds (C=C) in alkenes and fatty acids produces aldehydes and acids valued as chemical intermediates. Solid tungsten oxide catalysts are low cost, non-toxic, and selective for the oxidative cleavage of C=C bonds with hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ) and are, therefore, a promising option for continuous processes. Despite the relevance of these materials, the elementary steps involved and their sensitivity to the form of W sites present on surfaces have not been described. In this work, we combine in situ spectroscopy and rate measurements to identify significant steps in the reaction, the reactive species present on catalysts, and examine differences between the kinetics of this reaction on isolated W atoms grafted to alumina and on those exposed on crystalline WO 3 nanoparticles. Raman spectroscopy shows that W-peroxo complexes (W-(η 2 -O 2 ) formed from H 2 O 2 ) react in a kinetically relevant step to produce epoxides, which undergo hydrolysis at protic surface sites. Subsequently, the CH 3 CN solvent deprotonates diols to form alpha hydroxy ketones that react to form aldehydes and water following nucleophilic attack of H 2 O 2 . Turnover rates for oxidative cleavage, determined by in situ site titrations, on WO x -Al 2 O 3 are 75% greater than those on WO 3 at standard conditions. These differences reflect activation enthalpies (ΔH ‡ ) for oxidative cleavage of 4-octene that are much lower for the isolated WO x sites (36±3 and 60±6 kJ∙mol -1 for WO x -Al 2 O 3 and WO 3 , respectively) and correlate strongly with the difference between enthalpies of adsorption for epoxyoctane (ΔH ads,epox ), which resembles the transition state for epoxidation. The WO x -Al 2 O 3 catalysts mediate oxidative cleavage of oleic acid with H 2 O 2 following a mechanism comparable to that for 4-octene. The WO 3 materials, however, form only the epoxide and do not cleave the C-C bond or produce aldehydes and acids. These differences reflect the distinct site requirements for these reaction pathways and indicate that acid sites required for diol formation are strongly inhibited by oleic acids and epoxides on WO 3 whereas the Al 2 O 3 support provides sites competent for this reaction and increase the yield of the oxidative cleavage products.

Anthraquinone Redox Relay for Dye‐Sensitized Photo‐electrochemical H 2 O 2 Production

Abstract Anthraquinone (AQ) redox mediators are introduced to metal‐free organic dye sensitized photo‐electrochemical cells (DSPECs) for the generation of H 2 O 2 . Instead of directly reducing O 2 to produce H 2 O 2 , visible‐light‐driven AQ reduction occurs in the DSPEC and the following autooxidation with O 2 allows H 2 O 2 accumulation and AQ regeneration. In an aqueous electrolyte, under 1 sun conditions, a water‐soluble AQ salt is employed with the highest photocurrent of up to 0.4 mA cm −2 and near‐quantitative faradaic efficiency for producing H 2 O 2 . In a non‐aqueous electrolyte, under 1 sun illumination, an organic‐soluble AQ is applied and the photocurrent reaches 1.8 mA cm −2 with faradaic efficiency up to 95 % for H 2 O 2 production. This AQ‐relay DSPEC exhibits the highest photocurrent so far in non‐aqueous electrolytes for H 2 O 2 production and excellent acid stability in aqueous electrolytes, thus providing a practical and efficient strategy for visible‐light‐driven H 2 O 2 production.

Structural Characterization of Uranium Tetrafluoride Hydrate (UF 4 ·2.5H 2 O)

Uranium tetrafluoride is an important intermediate in the nuclear fuel cycle. Facile synthesis of its hydrate, uranium tetrafluoride hydrate (UF 4 ·2.5H 2 O), has recently been reported. The hydrate forms by contacting anhydrous UF 4 with neat H 2 O at room temperature for 24 h or by exposing anhydrous UF 4 to high relative humidity (>90%) conditions for several weeks. These pathways are of clear environmental relevance. Further understanding of the structure and optical spectra of UF 4 ·2.5H 2 O, especially of the water molecules, is therefore necessary. Herein, the structure of UF 4 ·2.5H 2 O was probed using time-of-flight neutron powder diffraction to improve understanding of the crystalline water environments in the structure. The complete structure was elucidated and compared to a previously reported partial structure for UF 4 ·2.5H 2 O and a predicted complete structure from density functional theory. The crystalline structure exhibits three distinct water environments: two of the three water sites are bound to uranium, and the third water is unbound or “free”. Furthermore, the completed structure reveals an extensive hydrogen bonding network involving water–fluorine and water–water interactions. One bound water site participates in hydrogen bonding with nearby fluoride ligands (O–H···F–U), and the second bound water site participates in hydrogen bonding with the unbound water (O–H···O) and a nearby fluoride ligand (O–H···F–U); the unbound water participates in hydrogen bonding with bound water (O–H···O–U). Low-temperature experiments and thermal analysis indicate UF 4 ·2.5H 2 O is thermally stable from 10 to 358 K, undergoes dehydration at higher temperatures, and is nearly dehydrated at 473 K. Structural measurements provide foundational understanding and will inform future investigations of the thermal and environmental stability of UF 4 ·2.5H 2 O.

Low- and intermediate-temperature oxidation of dimethyl ether up to 100 atm in a supercritical pressure jet-stirred reactor

Understanding the low- and intermediate-temperature oxidation chemistry of oxygenated fuels like dimethyl ether (DME) at high pressure is paramount to the development of advanced engines with low carbon emissions. The supercritical pressure jet-stirred reactor (SP-JSR) recently developed at Princeton provides a new platform for conducting kinetic studies at low and intermediate temperatures at extremely high pressures with a uniform temperature distribution and a short flow residence time. This paper uses the SP-JSR to investigate DME oxidation at equivalence ratios of 0.175, 1.0, and 1.72, for pressures of 10 and 100 atm, and temperatures ranging from 400 to 900 K. The results demonstrate weakened NTC behavior at 100 atm relative to 10 atm due to increased flux through QOOH + O 2 = O 2 QOOH relative to QOOH = 2 CH 2 O + OH at 100 atm. Furthermore, the intermediate-temperature oxidation window is shifted to lower temperatures at 100 atm. The experimental data are compared with several chemical kinetic models from the literature. The existing models are seen to agree quite well with the experimental data at 10 atm. However, the models fail to properly capture the NTC behavior at 100 atm. Reaction pathway analyses indicate that both the low- and intermediate-temperature chemistries are controlled by RO 2 consumption pathways. The reaction rates for several of the important reactions, such as DME + OH = CH 3 OCH 2 + H 2 O, H 2 O 2 (+M) = 2 OH (+M), and 2 HO 2 = 2 OH + O 2 are updated in this work. Furthermore, the updated model improves the predictability for all key species compared to the original model.

The effect of sodium thiosulfate on cytotoxicity of a diimine Re(i) tricarbonyl complex

Recently, diimine Re( I ) tricarbonyl complexes have attracted great interest due to their promising cytotoxic effects. Here, we compare the cytotoxicity and cellular uptake of two Re( I ) compounds fac -[(Re(CO) 3 (bpy)(H 2 O)](CF 3 SO 3 ) ( 1 ) and Na( fac -[(Re(CO) 3 (bpy)(S 2 O 3 )])·H 2 O (bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine) ( 2 ). The Re-thiosulfate complex in 2 was characterized in two solvated crystal structures {Na( fac -[Re(CO) 3 (bpy)(S 2 O 3 )])·1.75H 2 O·C 2 H 5 OH} 4 ( 2 + 0.75H 2 O + C 2 H 5 OH) 4 and ( fac -[Re(CO) 3 (bpy)(H 2 O)]) ( fac -[Re(CO) 3 (bpy)(S 2 O 3 )])·4H 2 O ( 3 ). The cytotoxicity of 1 and 2 was tested in the MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cell line and compared with that of cisplatin. The cellular localization of the Re( I ) complexes was investigated using synchrotron-based X-ray fluorescence microscopy (XFM). Overall, the results show that replacement of the aqua ligand with thiosulfate renders the complex less toxic most likely by distrupting its cellular entry. As a result, thiosulfate could potentially have a similar chemoprotective effect against diimine fac -Re(CO) 3 complexes as it has against cisplatin.

Decomposition Kinetics of H 2 O 2 on Pd Nanocrystals with Different Shapes and Surface Strains

Direct synthesis of hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ) from H 2 and O 2 on a Pd-based catalyst has emerged as a promising route to replace the energy-consuming, highly inefficient anthraquinone process. However, Pd is also a good catalyst for the decomposition of H 2 O 2 , thereby compromising the selectivity toward the desired product. The coupling between the formation and decomposition reactions makes it difficult to single out the most important parameter that controls the selectivity toward direct synthesis of H 2 O 2 . Herein, support-free monometallic Pd nanocrystals with different shapes and surface strains are used to investigate their impacts on the decomposition kinetics of H 2 O 2 . The kinetics are analyzed by tracking the concentration of the remaining H 2 O 2 using infrared spectroscopy. The data indicates that both surface structure and strain affect the decomposition kinetics of H 2 O 2 , but their impacts are inferior to that caused by Br – , a surface capping agent for the Pd{100} facets. The experimental results are consistent with the trend obtained through density functional theory calculations. Furthermore, this work helps shed light on the development of Pd-based catalysts for the direct synthesis of H 2 O 2 by offering strategies to mitigate the decomposition of the desired product.

Understanding CO 2 adsorption on the surfaces of SrO and its hydroxylated variants Sr(OH) 2 · n H 2 O ( n = 0, 1, 8)

Strontium oxide (SrO) is a promising material for CO 2 capture through a reversible cycle of carbonation and calcination, where SrO reacts with CO 2 to form SrCO 3 and can be regenerated by calcination. In the presence of moisture, SrO forms strontium hydroxide and its hydrates (Sr(OH) 2 ·nH 2 O). Here, this study, which employs density functional theory, investigates the CO 2 adsorption mechanism of these processes on various crystal surfaces, including SrO, Sr(OH) 2 , Sr(OH) 2 ·1H 2 O, and Sr(OH) 2 ·8H 2 O. A significant finding is that the interaction of CO 2 with these surfaces leads to carbonate/bicarbonate formation via electron transfer, with notable differences in CO 2 orientation and bond characteristics between SrO surfaces and its hydroxylated surfaces. To explore the effects of moisture on CO 2 adsorption, H 2 O adsorption on these stable surfaces was investigated. The results showed that H 2 O reacts with the SrO (100) surface to form hydroxyl (OH) groups while it bonds with the surfaces of Sr(OH) 2 ·nH 2 O (n = 0, 1, 8) with hydrogen bonding. A small amount of H 2 O can enhance CO2 adsorption while a large amount of H 2 O could decrease the capability of CO 2 adsorption.

Hydrogen bond arrangements in (H 2 O) 20, 24, 28 clathrate hydrate cages: Optimization and many-body analysis

Here we provide a detailed study of hydrogen bonding arrangements, relative stability, residual entropy, and an analysis of the many-body effects in the (H 2 O) 20 (D-cage), (H 2 O) 24 (T-cage), and (H 2 O) 28 (H-cage) hollow cages making up structures I (sI) and II (sII) of clathrate hydrate lattices. Based on the enumeration of the possible hydrogen bonding networks for a fixed oxygen atom scaffold, the residual entropy (S 0 ) of these three gas phase cages was estimated at 0.754 82, 0.754 44, and 0.754 17 · Nk b , where N is the number of molecules and k b is Boltzmann’s constant. A previously identified descriptor of enhanced stability based on the relative arrangement and connectivity of nearest-neighbor fragments on the polyhedral water cluster [strong-weak-effective-bond model] also applies to the larger hollow cages. The three cages contain a maximum of 7, 9, and 11 such preferable arrangements of trans nearest dimer pairs with one “free” OH bond on the donor molecule (t1d dimers). The Many-Body Expansion (MBE) up to the 4-body suggests that the many-body terms vary nearly linearly with the cluster binding energy. Using a hierarchical approach of screening the relative stability of networks starting from optimizations with the TIP4P, TTM2.1-F, and MB-pol classical potentials, subsequently refining at more accurate levels of electronic structure theory (DFT and MP2), and finally correcting for zero-point energy, we were able to identify a group of four low-lying isomers of the (H 2 O) 24 T-cage, two of which are antisymmetric and the other two form a pair of antipode configurations.

Temperature-induced changes in the synthesis gas composition in a high-temperature H 2 O and CO 2 co-electrolysis system

Solid oxide electrolysis cell (SOEC) is an attractive renewable technology capable of producing synthesis gas (H 2 + CO) from H 2 O and CO 2 . An SOEC consists of a solid oxide electrolyte and two ceramic or metal-ceramic electrodes. H 2 O and CO 2 are electrolyzed at the cathode producing H 2 and CO, releasing O 2- ions, which travel through the electrolyte to the anode side and recombine to produce pure oxygen gas as the byproduct. In the present study, a La 0.7 Sr 0.2 Ni 0.2 Fe 0.8 O 3 cathode was used to co-electrolyze H 2 O and CO 2 at three different operating temperatures- 700 °C, 750 °C and 800 °C. Synthesis gas was produced at all three operating temperatures with 100% Faradaic efficiency. The composition of the syngas, however, was found to be a function of the operating temperature. In general, the H 2 /CO ratio in the syngas decreased with increased temperature. This was partially due to CO 2 electrolysis becoming more favorable compared to H 2 O electrolysis at higher temperatures.

Effect of H 2 O on the ethylene glycol/alkali dismantling of bagasse for high-value conversion

Using a high-boiling alcohol system to dismantle main components of biomass is a feasible technology. Reducing dismantle operating costs and improving dismantle efficiency are essential for promoting the green, economical, and sustainable development of biomass refining. Therefore, based on the low cost and chemical properties of H 2 O at high temperature, the effects of different H 2 O dosages in NaOH-catalyzed ethylene glycol (HBAA) system on the dismantling efficiency of bagasse, surface lignin coverage, recovered-lignin activity and enzymatic hydrolysis efficiency were investigated. Compared with the HBAA dismantling system without H 2 O, the HBAA system with 60% w/v H 2 O can obviously increase the removal rates of lignin and hemicellulose, while recovering up to 99% of cellulose and significantly declining surface lignin coverage, thus enhancing the enzymatic hydrolysis efficiency. Additionally, the results of density functional theory calculations and 2D HSQC NMR analysis prove that the synergy between H 2 O and ethylene glycol can promote the esterification reaction occurrence at the α-C carbon cation in β-O-4 structure of lignin, thereby protecting the β-O-4 aromatic ether bond. Simultaneously, when the H 2 O dosage increase from 0% to 60%, the enzymatic yield increases from 84.51% to 93.74% with an enzyme load of 10 FPU/g. Based on experimental results, this study conducted a techno-economic analysis of bagasse dismantling for ethanol and co-production of lignin, achieving a minimum ethanol selling price of $\$$1.07 per kg. Here, in this study, a green and economical solution for dismantling the main components of bagasse is developed, which is important for the high-value conversion of bagasse.

Low-Energy Isomers of the Magic Number H + (H 2 O) 21 Cluster

Electronic structure calculations are used to characterize low-energy isomers of H + (H 2 O) 21 . Eleven different classes of isomers, based on the (H 2 O) 20 pentagonal dodecahedron with the excess proton localized on the surface (as a hydrated hydronium ion) and the “extra” water molecule located in the interior of the cluster, are characterized. In 10 of these classes, the internal water molecule is engaged in six 5-membered rings, but in the remaining class, which is predicted to start at only 0.6 kcal/mol above the global minimum, the internal water is engaged in a 4- membered ring, an additional 6-membered ring, and four 5- membered rings. In addition, isomers with two 4-membered rings and two 6-membered rings on the cluster surface are predicted to start at only ∼1.3 kcal/mol above the lowest-energy dodecahedralbased structure.

The CH(X 2 Π) + H 2 O reaction: two transition state kinetics

he reaction of ground state methylidyne (CH) with water vapor (H 2 O) is theoretically re-investigated using high-level coupled cluster computations in combination with semi-classical transition state theory (SCTST) and two-dimensional master equation simulations. Insertion of CH into a H–O bond of H 2 O over a submerged barrier via a well-skipping mechanism yielding solely H and CH 2 O is characterized. The reaction kinetics is effectively determined by the formation of a pre-reaction van der Waals complex (PRC, HC—OH 2 ) and its subsequent isomerization to activated CH 2 OH in competition with PRC re-dissociation. The tunneling effects are found to be minor, while variational effects in the PRC → CH 2 OH step are negligible. The calculated rate coefficient k ( T ) is nearly pressure-independent, but strongly depends on temperature with pronounced down-up behavior: a high value of 2 x 10 -10 cm 3 s -1 at 50 K, followed by a fairly steep decrease down to 8 × 10 -12 cm 3 s -1 at 900 K, but increasing again to 5 × 10 -11 cm 3 s -1 at 3500 K. Over the T-range of this work, k ( T ) can be expressed as: k ( T , P = 0) = 2.31 × 10 -11 ( T /300 K) -1.615 exp(-38.45/ T ) cm 3 s -1 for T = 50-400 K k ( T , P = 0) = 1.15 × 10 -12 ( T /300 K) 0.8637 exp(892.6/ T ) cm 3 s -1 for T = 400-1000 K k ( T , P = 0) = 4.57 × 10 -15 ( T /300 K) 3.375 exp(3477.4/ T ) cm 3 s -1 for T = 1000–3500 K.

HȮ 2 + HȮ 2 : High level theory and the role of singlet channels

At low temperatures and high pressures, the HȮ 2 + HȮ 2 reaction is an important reaction in combustion. There are significant unresolved discrepancies between prior theoretical and experimental studies of this reaction. It has generally been presumed to occur as an abstraction on the triplet surface to produce H 2 O 2 + 3 O 2 . Here, we employ a combination of high-level electronic structure theory (the ANL0 composite method or multi-reference methods as appropriate), sophisticated transition state theory (vibrationally adiabatic torsions, variational, and variable reaction coordinate), and master equation analyses to predict the thermal kinetics on the H 2 O 4 surface. Notably, this analysis suggests a significant branching to HȮ 3 + ȮH near 1000 K via reaction on the singlet surface. This channel does not appear to have been considered in prior combustion models. HȮ 3 itself is a metastable complex (bound by only 3 kcal mol -1 ) that rapidly dissociates to ȮH + 3 O 2 . Thus, the net reaction for this channel, HȮ 2 + HȮ 2 → ȮH + ȮH + O 2 , converts two low reactivity HȮ 2 radicals into two highly reactive ȮH radicals. The ramifications of these newly derived rate expressions are highlighted through kinetic modeling studies of H 2 , CH 3 OH, $\textit{n}$-heptane, and isooctane oxidation; all at the high pressures of relevance to combustion devices.
