Suppression of the valence transition in solution-grown single crystals of Eu 2 Pt 6 Al 15

Here, the study of Eu intermetallic compounds has allowed the exploration of valence fluctuations and transitions in 4⁢𝑓 electron systems. Recently, a Eu 2 ⁢Pt 6 ⁢Al 15 phase synthesized by arc-melting followed by a thermal treatment was reported M. Radzieowski et al. [J. Am. Chem. Soc. 140, 8950 (2018)], which undergoes a transition upon cooling below 45 K that was interpreted as a valence transition from Eu 2+ to Eu 3+ . In this paper, we present the discovery of another polymorph of Eu 2 ⁢Pt 6 ⁢Al 15 obtained by high temperature solution growth, which presents different physical properties than the arc-melted polycrystalline sample. Despite the similarities in crystal structure and chemical composition, the Eu valence transition is almost fully suppressed in the solution-grown crystals, allowing the moments associated with the Eu 2+ state to order antiferromagnetically at around 14 K. A detailed analysis of the crystal structure using single crystal x-ray diffraction reveals that, although the solution grown crystals are built from the same constituent layers as the arc-melted samples, these layers present a different stacking. The effect of different thermal treatments is also studied. Different anneal procedures did not result in significant changes in the intrinsic properties, and only by arc-melting and quenching the crystals we were able to convert them into the previously reported polymorph.

Growth, discovery and characterization of single crystalline Eu 0.8 Pt 6 Al 16.4

Here, we report the discovery of a ternary compound, Eu 0.8 Pt 6 Al1 6.4 . We determine its chemical and structural characteristics based on energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy as well as both powder and single-crystal X-ray diffraction, demonstrating that it crystallizes in a hexagonal structure type EuPt 6 Al 17 with no reported structural analog. The temperature- and field-dependent magnetization, and temperature-dependent resistance measurements, reveal that the Eu 2+ magnetic moments order antiferromagnetically below 2.8 K.

Structures and Magnetic Properties of K 2 Pd 4 U 6 S 17 , K 2 Pt 4 U 6 S 17 , Rb 2 Pt 4 U 6 S 17 , and Cs 2 Pt 4 U 6 S 17 Synthesized Using the Boron–Chalcogen Mixture Method

A series of A 2 M 4 U 6 S 17 (A = Alkali metal, M = Pd or Pt) compounds, specifically K 2 Pd 4 U 6 S 17 , K 2 Pt 4 U 6 S 17 , Rb 2 Pt 4 U 6 S 17 , and Cs 2 Pt 4 U 6 S 17 , were synthesized using the combined Boron-Chalcogen Mixture (BCM) and molten flux crystal growth methods. The formation of the Rb- and Cs- containing analogues resulted from the in-situ alkali polysulfide flux formation formed from the alkali carbonates. The successful synthesis of single crystals of the title compounds allowed for their structural characterization by single crystal X-ray diffraction. The structure determination revealed disorder of the alkali cations in Rb 2 Pt 4 U 6 S 17 , and Cs 2 Pt 4 U 6 S 17 , while the potassium cations in K 2 Pd 4 U 6 S 17 and K 2 Pt 4 U 6 S 17 were fully ordered. Here, magnetic measurements were performed on samples of K 2 Pt 4 U 6 S 17 , Rb 2 Pt 4 U 6 S 17 , and Cs 2 Pt 4 U 6 S 17 that contained small amounts of paramagnetic β-US 2 and diamagnetic PtS. Antiferromagnetic order is observed at T N = 9.1 K for K 2 Pt 4 U 6 S 17 . No long-range magnetic order was observed for Rb 2 Pt 4 U 6 S 17 and Cs 2 Pt 4 U 6 S 17 . Uranium moments of 2.5, 2.6, and 2.6 μB were measured for K 2 Pt 4 U 6 S 17 , Rb 2 Pt 4 U 6 S 17 , and Cs 2 Pt 4 U 6 S 17 , respectively.

Toward Quantum Chemical Free Energy Simulations of Platinum Nanoparticles on Titania Support

Platinum nanoparticles (Pt-NPs) supported on titania surfaces are costly but indispensable heterogeneous catalysts because of their highly effective and selective catalytic properties. Therefore, it is vital to understand their physicochemical processes during catalysis to optimize their use and to further develop better catalysts. However, simulating these dynamic processes is challenging due to the need for a reliable quantum chemical method to describe chemical bond breaking and bond formation during the processes but, at the same time, fast enough to sample a large number of configurations required to compute the corresponding free energy surfaces. Density functional theory (DFT) is often used to explore Pt-NPs; nonetheless, it is usually limited to some minimum-energy reaction pathways on static potential energy surfaces because of its high computational cost. In this work, we report a combination of the density functional tight binding (DFTB) method as a fast but reliable approximation to DFT, the steered molecular dynamics (SMD) technique, and the Jarzynski equality to construct free energy surfaces of the temperature-dependent diffusion and growth of platinum particles on a titania surface. In particular, we present the parametrization for Pt-X (X = Pt, Ti, or O) interactions in the framework of the second-order DFTB method, using a previous parametrization for titania as a basis. The optimized parameter set was used to simulate the surface diffusion of a single platinum atom (Pt 1 ) and the growth of Pt 6 from Pt 5 and Pt 1 on the rutile (110) surface at three different temperatures (T = 400, 600, 800 K). The free energy profile was constructed by using over a hundred SMD trajectories for each process. We found that increasing the temperature has a minimal effect on the formation free energy; nevertheless, it significantly reduces the free energy barrier of Pt atom migration on the TiO 2 surface and the transition state (TS) of its deposition. In a concluding remark, the methodology opens the pathway to quantum chemical free energy simulations of Pt-NPs’ temperature-dependent growth and other transformation processes on the titania support.

The [M 6 (S 2 C 2 Ph 2 ) 6 ] (M = Ni, Pd, Pt) Series: Multielectron Reservoirs That Sustain Ligand-Based Oxidations and Metal-Based Reductions

A complete [M 6 (S 2 C 2 R 2 ) 6 ] series (M = Ni (1), Pd (2), Pt (3); R = Ph), the rarest variety among homoleptic dithiolene transition-metal compounds, has been prepared by reaction between [M(S 2 C 2 Ph 2 ) 2 ] and a M 0 source. The platinum member of this set is the first of its type. Diffraction-quality crystals, grown with high reproducibility by evaporation from PhNO 2 solutions, reveal fully reduced [Ph 2 C 2 S 2 ] 2– dianions and an octahedral M 6 core that is reduced to C 2 symmetry by the fusion of a mononuclear D 2h [M(S 2 C 2 Ph 2 ) 2 ] fragment upon a C 4 -symmetric base. The [Ni 6 (S 2 C 2 Ph 2 ) 2 ] 1– monoanion, prepared by Cp* 2 Co reduction, shows only modest structural differences from its neutral counterpart. In CH 2 Cl 2 , 1 and 2 can undergo two reductions and an oxidation, while 3 sustains two reductions and two oxidations. In benzonitrile, 1 sustains three reversible oxidations at potentials that are shifted appreciably to less positive values. The cathodic processes are shown by density functional theory (DFT) calculations to involve an MO largely of metal–sulfur composition that has contributions throughout the C 4 -symmetric pentametallic base of the assembly, while the oxidations are largely ligand-based and confined to the monometallic [M(S 2 C 2 Ph 2 ) 2 ] cap. The absorption spectra are marked by multiple overlapping bands that produce a continuous, tapering absorption profile of unresolved shoulders and swells.

Atomic Structure Evolution of Pt–Co Binary Catalysts: Single Metal Sites versus Intermetallic Nanocrystals

Due to their exceptional catalytic properties for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and other crucial electrochemical reactions, PtCo intermetallic nanoparticle (NP) and single atomic (SA) Pt metal site catalysts have received considerable attention. However, their formation mechanisms at the atomic level during high-temperature annealing processes remain elusive. Furthermore, the thermally driven structure evolution of Pt–Co binary catalyst systems is investigated using advanced in situ electron microscopy, including PtCo intermetallic alloys and single Pt/Co metal sites. The pre-doping of CoN 4 sites in carbon supports and the initial Pt NP sizes play essential roles in forming either Pt 3 Co intermetallics or single Pt/Co metal sites. Importantly, the initial Pt NP loadings against the carbon support are critical to whether alloying to L1 2 -ordered Pt 3 Co NPs or atomizing to SA Pt sites at high temperatures. High Pt NP loadings (e.g., 20%) tend to lead to the formation of highly ordered Pt 3 Co intermetallic NPs with excellent activity and enhanced stability toward the ORR. In contrast, at a relatively low Pt loading (<6 wt%), the formation of single Pt sites in the form of PtC 3 N is thermodynamically favorable, in which a synergy between the PtC 3 N and the CoN 4 sites could enhance the catalytic activity for the ORR, but showing insufficient stability.
