Relativistic periodic calculations of adsorption energies of group-12 elements Hg and Cn and group-14 elements Pb and Fl on a hydroxylated (001) α-quartz surface at different adsorbate coverage have been performed using the ADF-BAND program.

Two models of a V2O5 catalyst supported on TiO2 are compared using DFT-GGA periodic calculations. In the first one, the energetically least favorable, a surface Ti atom of the TiO2 anatase is substituted by a V atom, leading to a V+4 ion as active site. In the second model, the Ti atom is substituted by a VOH group; pentacoordinated V+5 ions are formed at the surface. This model leads to the most stable system with a gap between the occupied band mainly localized on the oxygen ions and the vacant band mainly localized on the metal ions. For the (100) face, it is concluded that the substitutions occur with the same energies at first neighbor and second neighbor metal positions. The adsorption energies are slightly larger for the (001) face, which is more stable.

The synthesis of a series of N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) complexes involving zinc, cadmium, and the heavy Group 14 elements germanium, tin, and lead is reported. The direct reaction between the bulky carbene IPr (IPr = (HCNDipp)2C:, Dipp = 2,6-iPr2C6H3) and the Group 14 halide reagents GeCl4 and SnCl4 afforded the 1 : 1 complexes IPr·ECl4 (E = Ge and Sn) in high yield; similarly, ZnI2 interacted with IPr in THF to give the THF-bound complex IPr·ZnI2·THF. CdCl2 underwent divergent chemistry with IPr and the major product isolated was the imidazolium salt [IPrH][IPr·CdCl3], which could be converted into IPr·CdCl2·THF upon treatment with Tl[OTf]. In addition, the stable PbII amide adduct, IPr·PbBr(NHDipp), was prepared. Each of the new carbene–element halide adducts was treated with the hydride sources Li[BH4] and Li[HBEt3] in order to potentially access new element hydride adducts and/or clusters. In most instances scission of the element–carbene bonds transpired, except in the case of IPr·ZnI2·THF, which reacted with two equivalents of Li[BH4] to yield the thermally stable bis(borohydride) zinc complex IPr·Zn(BH4)2.
