Theoretical study on the formation mechanism of Iso-CH2I-Cl

The dissociation and isomerization reaction mechanism on the ground-state potential energy surface for CH2ClI are investigated by ab initio calculations. It is found that the isomer iso-CH2I-Cl can be produced from either the recombination of the photodissociation. fragments or the isomerization reaction of CH2ClI, rather than from isomerization reaction of iso-CH2Cl-I. Further explanations of experimental results are also presented. (C) 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Phase Diagram of [Amim]Cl plus Salt Aqueous Biphasic Systems and Its Application for [Amim]Cl Recovery

In this study, binodal curves and tie line data of [Amim]Cl + salt (K3PO4, K2HPO4, K2CO3) + water aqueous biphasic systems (ABS) were measured and correlated satisfactorily with the Merchuk equation and Othmer-Tobias and Bancroft equations, respectively. [Amim]Cl could be recovered from aqueous solutions using the ABS, and the recovery efficiency could reach 96.80%. The recovery efficiency was influenced by the concentrations of the salts and their Homeister series: K3PO4 > K2HPO4 > K2CO3. Our method provides a new and effective route for the recovery of hydrophilic IL using [Amim]Cl + salt + water ABS from aqueous solutions.

Synthesis of Liquid Polybutadiene Having Desired 1,2-Vinyl Content with Co(naph)(2)-Al-2(C2H5)(3)Cl-3-P(OPh)(3) Catalyst System

Liquid polybutadiene with desirable 1,2-units content was synthesized by Co(naph)(2)-Al-2(C2H5)(3)Cl-3-P(OPh)(3) catalyst system. It was shown that liquid polybutadiene having adequate 1,2-unit content (vinvl =35%-40%) molecular weight(M-n = 700-3500), and acceptabele conversion(>= 55%) can synthesized after optimizing polymerization conditions.

One-step synthesis of Ru(2,2 '-bipyridine)(3)Cl-2-immobilized silica nanoparticles for use in electrogenerated chemiluminescence detection

One-step synthesis of Ru (bpy)(3) Cl-2-immobilized (bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine) silica nanoparticles (Ru-silica nanoparticles) for use in electrogenerated-chemiluminescence (ECL) detection is reported. Ru-silica nanoparticles are prepared by using the Stober method. Compared with free Ru(bpy)(3)Cl-2, Ru-silica nanoparticles are seen to exhibit a red-shift of the UV-vis absorbance peak and a longer fluorescence lifetime, which are attributed to the electrostatic interaction of Ru(bpy)(3)(2+) and silica. Because silica nanoparticles are used as immobilization matrices, the surfaces of Ru-silica nanoparticles are easily modified or functionalized via the assembly of other nanoparticles, such as Au. For ECL detection, Au-colloid-modified Ru-silica nanoparticles are immobilized on a 3-mercaptopropyl-trimethoxysilane-modified indium tin oxide electrode surface by Au-S interaction; the surface concentration of electroactive Ru(bpy)(3)Cl-2 is obviously higher than that in silica films.

Synthesis, structure and optical properties of new organic-inorganic haloplumbates complexes (C5H10N3)PbX4 (X = Br, Cl), (C2H2N4)PbBr3

Layered organic-inorganic composite materials (C5H10N3)PbX4 (X = Br 1, Cl 2) containing histaminium dications were grown via a solution-cooling process, and their structure and optical properties were determined. The organic ligand-histaminium introduced into the corner-sharing octahedra of the 'PbX4- layer' contains both primary ammonium and imidazolium different from the traditionally primary amine found in this system. As comparison, another analogous amine of 3-amino-1,2,4-triazol was used as ligand to coordinate with PbBr2 in acid solution. A novel complex (C2H2N4)PbBr3 (3) was obtained with zigzag PbBr2 chains different from the PbX4 layer in compound as 1 and 2. The hybrid (C5H10N3)PbX4 show exciton absorption at 339 nm for X = Cl and 419 nm for X = Br with the corresponding emission at 360 and 436 nm, respectively. The different PbBr2 chain structure of compound 3 does not show photo luminescence.
