The Raman spectrum of microcrystalline dodecacarbonyldirhenium(0), Re2(CO)10, has been reinvestigated at 67 K using one of the latest fully-computerized spectrometers available. Previously unobserved peaks have been detected mainly in the 13CO-satellite (2150–1900 cm−1), and overtone and combination regions (1300–700 and 4300–3800 cm−1). This is the first time that Raman-active first CO overtones and combinations of a metal carbonyl complex have been reported. They were earlier thought to be too weak to be detected. Assignments are proposed for the majority of these new peaks together with those from a similar low-temperature (~70 K) FT-ir study. In general, the D4d selection rules are obeyed, but the activity of some forbidden bands reveals that the molecule is slightly distorted in the solid state in agreement with its X-ray structure. The similarity of the low-temperature spectra to those obtained at room temperature indicates that no phase change occurs throughout the temperature range investigated.

A mixed ligand Cd(II) complex [Cd(IsoPht)(TEA)H2O]·3H2O was synthesized for the first time by using isophthalic acid (H2IsoPht) and tetradentate triethanolamine (TEA) and characterized by X-ray single-crystal diffraction, FT-IR, and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). This novel complex crystallizes in the triclinic system with P-1 space group and distorted monocapped trigonal prismatic geometry. The Cd(II) has seven coordinates with bidentate IsoPht, a TEA in the tetradentate mode, and an aqua ligand. The fluorescence properties of the Cd(II) complex and TEA ligand were investigated at room temperature. The present Cd(II) complex was also tested for its antimicrobial activity by in vitro agar diffusion method against some Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria and a fungus.

Photothermal materials are attracting more and more attention. In this research, we synthesized a ferrocene-containing polymer with magnetism and photothermal properties. The resulting polymer was characterized by Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR), vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), scanning electron microscope (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). Its photo-thermocatalytic activity was investigated by choosing methylene blue (MB) as a model compound. The degradation percent of MB under an irradiated 808 nm laser reaches 99.5% within 15 min, and the degradation rate is 0.5517 min−1, which is 145 times more than that of room temperature degradation. Under irradiation with simulated sunlight, the degradation rate is 0.0092 min−1, which is approximately 2.5 times more than that of room temperature degradation. The present study may open up a feasible route to degrade organic pollutants.

Abstract Cesium hydroxide, CsOH, was for the first time characterised on the basis of single-crystal data. The structure is isotypic to the one of the room-temperature modification of NaOH and can be derived from the NaCl structure type thus allowing the comparison of all alkali metal hydroxide structures. Raman spectroscopic investigations show the hydroxide anion to behave almost as a free ion as in the gas phase. The X-ray investigations indicate possible H atom positions.

Low temperature Fourier transform infrared measurements at 20 K on some wafers containing substitutional atomic carbon and oxygen are presented. Spectral subtraction techniques at 20 K indicate an increase of approximately 5 times in sensitivity compared to the room temperature evaluation of the carbon and oxygen concentrations.

ABSTRACTIn α-C5n-HNO3 the condensation of the room-temperature liquid-like diffuse ring associated with the disorder-order transition around 250 K is studied and the low-temperature. superstructure is examined.It is found that β-C8n-HNO3 exhibits an in-plane incommensurate order at room temperature.Two types of graphite-Br2 are found. Low-temperature phase transitions in C8Br are observed at T1 ≍ 277 K and T2 ≍ 297 K. The room-temperature structure of C14Br is reexamined. Special attention is given to diffuse scattering and incommensurability.

For the first time, particle-induced X-ray emission (PIXE) spectra were obtained using TlBr detectors. The TlBr detector was fabricated from a crystal grown with material purified by the zone purification. Its active volume was 1.5 mm × 1.5 mm × 3.1 mm, and it exhibited an energy resolution of a 6.2 keV full-width at half-maximum (FWHM) for 59.5 keV at room temperature. The detector was installed into a PIXE system at Aomori Prefecture Quantum Science Center. A Pb plate target in the PIXE chamber was irradiated with a 20 MeV proton beam, and X-ray peaks for Pb K[Formula: see text] and K[Formula: see text] were successfully detected by the TlBr detector at room temperature.

<p>This work aims to prepare a new bimetallic phosphate catalyst using a new simple and effective method. This new catalyst was ready for the first time by a modification of Triple Super Phosphate (TSP) fertilizer with silver sulfate (AgSO<sub>4</sub>), followed by the impregnation of the aluminum atoms using aluminum nitrate (Al(NO<sub>3</sub>)<sub>3</sub>). The use of Al/Ag<sub>3</sub>PO<sub>4</sub>, for the first time as a heterogeneous catalyst in organic chemistry, offers a new, efficient, and green pathway for synthesizing 1,2-dihydro-l-phenyl-3H-naphth[1,2-e]-[1,3]oxazin-3-one derivatives by one-pot three-component cyclocondensation of b-naphthol, aryl aldehyde, and urea. The structure and the morphology of the prepared catalyst were characterized by spectroscopic methods such as X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), and dispersive X-ray spectrometry coupled with a scanning electron microscope (EDX-SEM). In addition, the optimization of the reaction parameters was carried out considering the effect of catalyst amount, the temperature, and the solvent. The procedure described herein allowed a comfortable preparation of oxazine derivatives with excellent yields, short reaction times, and in the absence of organic solvent.</p>

The purpose of this paper is to examine the physical stability as well as viscoelastic properties of the binary amorphous ezetimibe–simvastatin system. According to our knowledge, this is the first time that such an amorphous composition is prepared and investigated. The tendency toward re-crystallization of the amorphous ezetimibe–simvastatin system, at both standard storage and elevated temperature conditions, have been studied by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD). Our investigations have revealed that simvastatin remarkably improves the physical stability of ezetimibe, despite the fact that it works as a plasticizer. Pure amorphous ezetimibe, when stored at room temperature, begins to re-crystallize after 14 days after amorphization. On the other hand, the ezetimibe-simvastatin binary mixture (at the same storage conditions) is physically stable for at least 1 year. However, the devitrification of the binary amorphous composition was observed at elevated temperature conditions (T = 373 K). Therefore, we used a third compound to hinder the re-crystallization. Finally, both the physical stability as well as viscoelastic properties of the ternary systems containing different concentrations of the latter component have been thoroughly investigated.
