Cyclic voltammetric and in situ Fourier transform infrared spectroelectrochemical studies on the reaction of Cd2+ on the plussian blue/platinum modified electrode

Plussian blue(PB)/Pt modified electrode Tvas studied in the CdCl2 electrolyte solution by cyclic voltammetry and in situ FTIR spectroelectrochemistry. It was found that Cadmium ion was capable of substituting the high-spin iron of PB in an electrochemically induced substitution reaction and hexacyanoferrate cadmium (CdHCF) can be formed in the PB film. But PB and CdHCF in mixture film showed their own electrochemistry properties without serious effect on each other. The mechanism of substitution reaction has been given in detail.

INFRARED-SPECTRA OF DIMETHYLPHOSPHATE LANTHANIDE COMPLEXES

The infrared spectra of the crystalline solid samples of rare earth(III) dimethylphosphates Ln(DMP)3 (Ln = La, Ce, Nd) in the range 4000-100 cm-1 are discussed. It is shown that the spectra may be treated by dividing Ln(DMP)3 into two parts, an OP(OCH3)2O bridge and a LnO6 distortion octahedron. The absorption bands above 500 cm-1 may be clearly assigned. However, vibrational assignments in the far-infrared region are tentative.

AN INFRARED SPECTROSCOPIC STUDY ON THE STRUCTURAL PHASE-TRANSITIONS OF LAURYLAMMONIUM CHLORIDE

Infrared spectroscopy was used to study the structural phase, transitions of laurylammonium chloride in the temperature range from 290 to 365K. It was shown that there is a solid-solid phase transition at 339 K with a pre-transition at 327 K. The infrared spectra indicated that virgin crystals at room temperature form a well-ordered phase with all-trans hydrocarbon chains, and the lengths of N-H...Cl hydrogen bonds are different. The spectra suggested that the gauche conformers begin to appear at temperature above 327 K. The spectra at high temperature over 339 K demonstrated that the interaction between the chains decreases, the partial ''melting'' of the chains is obvious, and the hydrogen bonds (N-H...Cl) have the same lengths. The main transition and pre-transition are mainly assigned to the intramolecular and intermolecular order-disorder changes, respectively.

AN INFRARED SPECTROSCOPIC CHARACTERIZATION OF THE SOLID SOLID BEHAVIOR OF DODECYLAMMONIUM CHLORIDE

The infrared spectra of the bilayer system dodecylammonium chloride has been studied as a function of temperature. Unusual splitting of some vibrational modes helps us to characterize the structure of different solid states. This study provided the evidence for the occurrence of an order-disorder phase transition whose onset occurs at 327 K and its completion ends at 339 K. In the low temperature phase below 327 K, the virgin crystals form a well-ordered phase with all-transhydrocarbon chains. In the intermediate state between 327 and 339 K, the data demonstrate the introduction of intramolecular as well as intermolecular disorder. The coexistence of solid and liquid-crystal-like states is shown by the persistence of factor group splittings together with the existence of defect bands in the wide intermediate temperature range. In the high temperature phase over 339 K the crystals convert to a liquid-crystal-like system with extensive motional and conformational disorder, but still show characteristics in their infrared spectra which indicate the presence of ordered segments in the hexagonal solid phase.

AN INFRARED SPECTROSCOPIC STUDY OF THE STRUCTURAL PHASE-TRANSITION IN THE PEROVSKITE-TYPE LAYER COMPOUND [N-C16H33NH3]2COCL4

The solid-solid phase transitions in the perovskite-type layer compound [n- C16H33NH3]2CoCl4 have been studied by infrared spectroscopy. A new phase transition at 340 K was found by comparison with differential scanning calorimetry results. A temperature dependence study of the infrared spectra provides evidence of the occurrence of structural phase transitions related to the dynamics of the alkylammonium ions and hydrogen bonds. The main transition at 374 K corresponds to the conformational order-disorder change in the chain, which probably couples with reorientational motions of the NH3 polar heads. GTG or GTG' defects appear in the high temperature disordered phase.

INFRARED SPECTRA AND CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF BIS-(DIMETHOXYLPHOSPHATO) COPPER

The title complex has beep synthesized by the reaction of CaCl2, with trimethyl phosphate. Its Infrared spectra from 4000 to 100 cm(-1) measured. The assignment of acme absorption bands was discussed. It is found that the stretching vibrations of bridge groups O-P-O are divided into two groups according to their bond length. The crystal structure of the complex boa been determined from single crystal K-ray diffraction data. The crystals belong to monoclinic system, space group P2(1)/c with cell parameteras, a = 1,0704(4), b = 0.5093(2), c = 1.9737(6)nm, beta = 96.23(3)degrees, V = 1.0696(6)nm(2), Z = 4, final R = 0.044. Copper ion is coordinated to five Rimester oxygen atoms to form a distorted square pyramid. The adjacent copper ions are connected by symmetric and non-symmetric bridge groups of O-P-O, forming an infinite one-dimensional chain coordination polymer.

THERMAL ANALYSIS AND INFRARED SPECTRA OF DIALKYLAMMONIUM TETRAC HLOROCUPRATE

The thermal stability and the solid solid phase transitions in Ills compounds with n = 7-12 have been studied by DSC and TG methods. Comparision with CnZn compounds want made. The nature of three phases of CnCu has been discussed in terms of infrared spectroscopy and the assignment of the phase transitions has been given. The thermal stability of CnCu is lower than that of CnZn and presents an obvious odd even effect. All of these compounds exhibit two solid solid phase transitions in the temperature range of 248-337 K. The peak tempe nature of phase transitions changes regularly. The peak temperature or the main phase transition increases with the chain length. The total transition enthalpies and entropies increase with increasing chain length. When n <= 9, the high temperature phase exists in a partial disorder state. When n >= 10, the high temperature phase exists in a conformational disorder state. The main phase transition and the phase transition at 307.7 K of CnCu may mainly are from the change of the packing structure and the change of the partial conformational order-disorder of alkyl chain, respectively.
