RESUMO
The title salt, [CoBr(C11H27N5)]Br2·2H2O, contains a complex cation with mirror symmetry and two Br(-) counter-anions that are likewise located on the mirror plane. The central Co(III) atom of the complex cation has one Br(-) ion in an axial position, one N atom of the penta-dentate macrocyclic ligand in the other axial position and four N atoms of the ligand in equatorial positions, defining a distorted octa-hedral coordination geometry. The macrocyclic ligand is coordinated to the Co(III) atom within a 5, 6, 5 arrangement of chelate rings in the equatorial plane of the four N atoms. Due to symmetry, the configuration of the chiral N atoms is 1RS, 4SR, 10RS, 13SR. In the crystal, N-Hâ¯Br, O-Hâ¯Br and N-Hâ¯O hydrogen bonds between the complex cation, anions and lattice water mol-ecules generate a three-dimensional network.
RESUMO
To elucidate the formation process of precursor of gold-supported manganese dioxide (MnO2), the coprecipitation behavior of [AuCl4-n(OH)n](-) (n=0-4) (Au(III)) complex ions with manganese(II) hydroxide (Mn(OH)2 and the change in their chemical state were examined. The Au(III) complex ions were rapidly and effectively coprecipitated with Mn(OH)(2) at pH 9. According to the Mössbauer spectra for gold (Au) coprecipitated with Mn(OH)2, below an Au content of 60 wt% in the coprecipitates, all of the coprecipitated Au existed in the atomic state (Au(0)), while, above an Au content of 65 wt%, part of the gold existed in the Au(III) state, and the proportion increased with increasing coprecipitated Au content. Based on the results of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, Mn(II) in Mn(OH)2 converted to Mn(IV) in conjunction with coprecipitation of Au(III) complex ions. These results indicate that the rapid stoichiometric reduction of Au(III) to Au(0) is caused by electron transfer from Mn(II) in Mn(OH)2 to the Au(III) complex ion through an Mn-O-Au bond.
RESUMO
Aluminum coordination in the framework of USY and ZSM-5 zeolites containing charge-compensating cations (NH4+, H+, or Cu+) was investigated by Al K-edge EXAFS and XANES. This work was performed using a newly developed in-situ cell designed especially for acquiring soft X-ray absorption data. Both tetrahedrally and octahedrally coordinated Al were observed for hydrated H-USY and H-ZSM-5, in good agreement with 27Al NMR analyses. Upon dehydration, water desorbed from the zeolite, and octahedrally coordinated Al was converted progressively to tetrahedrally coordinated Al. These observations confirmed the hypothesis that the interaction of water with Brønsted acid protons can lead to octahedral coordination of Al without loss of Al from the zeolite lattice. When H+ is replaced with NH4+ or Cu+, charge compensating species that absorb less water, less octahedrally coordinated Al was observed. Analysis of Al K-edge EXAFS data indicates that the Al-O bond distance for tetrahedrally coordinated Al in dehydrated USY and ZSM-5 is 1.67 angstroms. Simulation of k3chi(k) for Cu+ exchanged ZSM-5 leads to an estimated distance between Cu+ and framework Al atoms of 2.79 angstroms.

Titanium K-edge X-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) spectroscopy is used to examine the local Ti environments in the sol, gel, and xerogels of titanium oxide prepared by a sol-gel method. The xerogels were prepared by heat treatment at 200, 300, 400, 500, and 600 degrees C (denoted xero-200, xero-300, xero-400, xero-500, and xero-600), and the xerogels were doped with Fe(II), Ni(II), and Cu(II) ions (xero-Fe, xero-Ni, and xero-Cu). The local structures of the samples are compared using the pre- and post-edge features of the XANES spectra. Further analysis of the pre-edge features using Gaussian functions provides the energy and height of each peak, and the intensity ratios between peaks. Based on the resulting data, the samples can be classified into three groups: a weak Ti-Ti interaction group, an anatase-like structure group, and an anatase group. The sol, gel, xerogel, and xero-Ni are in the weak Ti-Ti interaction group, and the xero-200, xero-Fe, and xero-Cu are in the anatase-like structure group. The remaining samples are in the anatase group.
RESUMO
This study investigated the protonation of nitrogen atoms in porphyrins with meso-phenyl p-substituted by an electron-withdrawing group using N 1s X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), the N K X-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES), and the discrete variational (DV)-Xalpha molecular orbital (MO) method. Both tetraphenylporphyrin (TPP) and tetrakis(p-sulfonatophenyl)porphyrin (TSPP) have a single structure: the former has two protonated and two non-protonated N atoms in the porphine ring; the latter has four protonated N atoms in the porphine ring. In contrast, a combination of XPS, XANES, and DV-Xalpha MO calculations shows that tetrakis(p-carboxyphenyl)porphyrin (TCPP) has a dual structure: one structure has two protonated and two non-protonated N atoms; the other has four protonated N atoms. Furthermore, this result was also considered based on the protonation constants of N atoms in the porphyrins. The correlation between the strength of electron-withdrawing groups and protonation to N atoms in porphyrins can be described using the spectral patterns of the N 1s XPS and N K XANES spectra.
RESUMO
X-ray absorption near edge structure (XANES) measurements at the C, N, and Fe K absorption edges were performed for iron(III)-tetraphenylporphyrin (FeTPP), iron(III)-tetrakis(p-carboxyphenyl)porphyrin (FeTCPP), and iron(III)-tetrakis(p-sulfonatophenyl)porphyrin (FeTSPP). The spectral shapes differ in the Fe K XANES, but not in C and N K XANES among FeTPP, FeTCPP, and FeTSPP. Crosschecks of XANES data for C, N, and Fe K absorption edges in combination with discrete variational (DV)-Xalpha molecular orbital (MO) calculations indicate that each p-electron-withdrawing group on four meso-phenyl substitutes in an Fe(III)-porphyrin complex brings about a unique electron state through the complex because of the electron-withdrawal strength, itself. Consequently, they affect the positive charge of the center Fe(III) ion.

The effect of UV (ultraviolet) irradiation on the adsorption of Au(III) ions on manganese dioxide and their reduction to Au(0) (gold with 0 valence state) was investigated using XPS (X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy) and 197Au Mössbauer spectroscopy. The UV irradiation accelerated the adsorption and the reduction. From the fact that the proportion of Au(0) estimated from Au 4f XPS spectra for surface analysis was significantly smaller than that from 197Au Mössbauer spectra for bulk analysis, we deduced that Au(0) was interpenetrated to the inside of manganese dioxide (into deeper places than about 30 A) where XPS is impossible to detect. The content of surface hydroxyl groups on manganese dioxide also increased due to the UV irradiation. The relationship between the charge in the content of hydroxyl groups and the interpenetration of Au(0) is discussed.
RESUMO
X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) experiments have been performed in acetonitrile solution with an in situ electrochemical cell at controlled electric potentials on [Ru(2)(&mgr;-O) (&mgr;-CH(3)COO)(2)(bpy)(2)L(2)](n)()(+) (bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine; L = pyridine (1) and 1-methylimidazole (2)) with the formal ruthenium oxidation states Ru(II)Ru(III), Ru(III)Ru(III), and Ru(III)Ru(IV). Spectra were also recorded for the corresponding hydroxo-bridged species, abbreviated as Ru(II)Ru(II)H, Ru(II)Ru(III)H, and Ru(III)Ru(III)H, which were formed by addition of p-toluenesulfonic acid to 1 and 2 and subsequent electrolysis. The X-ray absorption near edge structure (XANES) spectra all showed similar features, although a small shift toward higher threshold energy was observed with increasing formal ruthenium oxidation state. It is concluded from the analysis of the EXAFS data that the ruthenium-ruthenium distance of the &mgr;-oxo complexes decreases with decreasing formal ruthenium oxidation state, interpreted as resulting from decreased electrostatic repulsion between the ruthenium atoms. However, for the &mgr;-hydroxo complexes the ruthenium-ruthenium distance decreases in the order Ru(III)Ru(III)H > Ru(II)Ru(II)H > Ru(II)Ru(III)H. The present coordination structures of the oxo- and hydroxo-bridged ruthenium dimers of the different oxidation states are compared with related iron and vanadium dimers.
RESUMO
The anion-selectivity of the surface of a polymer ultrathin film incorporating an amphiphilic ruthenium(II) polypyridine complex with diperchlorate was examined using X-ray absorption spectroscopy with the total electron-yield method. The adsorbed species on the film surface were found to depend on the chemical composition in water where the film was prepared. By combining the X-ray absorption spectra with a molecular-orbital calculation, the molar ratio (MClO4/MRu) between the ClO4- ions and the Ru head group on the film surface could be semi-quantitatively analyzed; it was 0.88 for a film prepared on fresh water, and 1.4 for one prepared on old water.
RESUMO
Due to a consideration of Al detoxicification by simple carboxylic acid, the interaction between aluminium ion (Al³âº) and three dicarboxylic acids (oxalic acid (OX), malonic acid (MA) and succinic acid (SU)) under an acidic condition was investigated using ¹³C and ²7Al NMR techniques. Based on deconvolution of the ²7Al NMR spectra and quantitative ¹³C NMR spectra, the structure of each complex was elucidated. Especially, we focused on the peak assignments of ²7Al NMR spectra by combining of the results of quantitative ¹³C NMR spectra. In the OX system, the peak at 16 ppm in the ²7Al NMR spectrum originates from Al(OX)3³â» and Al(OX)2â», and the ratio of each complex depends on the OX/Al molar ratio. In the MA system, the three complexes (Al(MA)2â», Al(MA)3³â» and Al(MA)âº) are represented in the peak at 2 ppm in the ²7Al NMR spectrum. The assignment of peaks in the ²7Al NMR spectra in this study differs from those described in previous papers.
RESUMO
X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) was applied to a neat ionic liquid 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide [EMI(+)][Tf(2)N(-)] and its lithium salt solution at room temperature to clarify the composition and structure of its near-surface region. Core level peaks were recorded for Li 1s, N 1s, C 1s, F 1s, O 1s, S 2s, and S 2p. Valence band XPS spectra (0-40 eV binding energy) were also studied. The XPS spectra were analyzed using DV-Xα calculations. Results show that the planar type isomer of the EMI(+) cation is dominant at the near-surface region of EMI-Tf(2)N. Results of XPS measurements show a spectrum of Li 1s in Li/EMI-Tf(2)N. The proposed models for the preferred orientation of the ions exhibit good agreement with results obtained from the DV-Xα calculations.

RESUMO
The reaction of adamantane-2-thione with propiolic acid afforded a novel type of cycloadduct, spiro[adamantane-2,2'-6'H-[1,3]-oxathiin]-6'-one (3a), in quantitative yield. The reaction of thiobenzophenone with propiolic acid gave 2,2-diphenyl-6'H-[1,3]-oxathiin]-6'-one and 4-phenyl-3-thia-3,4-dihydronaphthoic acid in 34% and 35% yields, respectively. The reaction might proceed through a concerted process, as confirmed by kinetics. The reaction of adamantane-2-thione with 2-butynoic acid or phenylpropiolic acid gave the corresponding adducts regioselectively. Interestingly, only one isomer was obtained by the reaction of thiofenchone with propiolic acid, suggesting that the reaction proceeded diastereospecifically. Oxidation of adducts by dimethyldioxirane or m-chloroperoxybenzoic acid gave the corresponding sulfoxides and sulfones. The sulfoxides were thermally decomposed to give disulfide or another type of 1,3-oxathiin-6-one.

Several cofacial phthalocyanines (Pcs) with an Si-Si linkage were obtained by one-step condensation of 1H-isoindole-1,3(2H)-diimine with hexachlorodisilane as template in quinoline. They were characterized by gel-permeation chromatography, IR, NMR spectroscopy, and mass spectrometry, and cyclic voltammetry. The results strongly suggest that we indeed obtained Pc dimers directly linked by an Si-Si bond using this novel concept of utilizing a compound/salt with an element-element bond as a template. The cofacial dimer structures are reasonably supported by X-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES), electronic absorption and magnetic circular dichroism (MCD) spectra, and molecular orbital (MO) calculations. Interestingly, they show an electronic absorption spectrum very similar to that of silicon tetrabenztriazacorrole (SiTBC).
