Solutions of TeO2 (0.001 M) in HCl over a range of concentrations are shown to contain TeCl2(OH)2 in addition to TeCl62−and TeCl4(OH)−. The hydrolysis constants for TeCl62− and TeCl4(OH)− have been determined from a reconsideration of earlier UV-visible spectrophotometric results (1)[Formula: see text]The hydrolysis constants have also been determined by quantitative Raman spectroscopy (K1 = 2.21 (± 0.16) × 104 M3; K2 = 442 ± 57 M3). The agreement between K2 determined by the two methods is good but K1 from spectrophotometry is much larger than that from Raman studies. This disagreement is attributed to ion-pairing which will be significant at the concentration at which the Raman measurements were made (c(TeO2) = 0.50 M). The hydrolysis constant for TeCl62− was also determined from the 125Te NMR spectra of TeO2/HCl solutions, which consisted of one signal, indicating rapid Te exchange between all species. The hydrolysis constant, determined in this way (K1 = 1.92 (± 0.07) × 104 M3) was also low compared to that determined from spectrophotometry. Key words: solution, equilibria, tellurium, hydrochloric acid, Raman spectroscopy, 125Te NMR spectroscopy, UV–visible spectrophotometry.

The oxidation of thiocyanic acid by selenous acid has been shown to take place in an analogous way to that found for selenous acid oxidation of most thiols and thiolates to give the corresponding selenotrisulfide and disulfide products[Formula: see text]The products of this reaction have been studied by IR, Raman, and Se-77, C-13, and N-15 NMR spectroscopy. The vibrational spectra of the solid Se(SCN)2 have been assigned based on S-bonded thiocyanate ligands and, through NMR and vibrational spectroscopy, both this linkage isomer and the isomer with N- and S-bonded thiocyanate have been identified and characterized in solutions of Se(SCN)2. A complex combination of scalar relaxation processes, involving chemical exchange and quadrupolar effects, accounts for the line broadening observed in the carbon-13 NMR spectra. Key words: selenite, thiocyanate, selenium dithiocyanate, Se-77, N-15, and C-13 NMR; Raman spectroscopy; linkage isomerism

In many applications of NMR spectroscopy to chemistry, quantitation play s a key role. This paper argues that peak heights not only can be used for quantitative work in NMR but that for careful work they should be used. Integrals are accurate, but because they depend on many subjective factors, their precision is suspect. Peak heights are very reproducible on modern spectrometers and so, given this precision, the accuracy can be obtained as well by using calibration methods. An example of the application of these methods is given in the case of a 13C labelling experiment that elucidates a photochemical transformation. Key words: NMR, labelling, quantitation, peak heights, integrals.

Raman and Se-77 NMR spectroscopy confirm that when selenous acid is reduced by thiosulfate in water selenopentathionate and tetrathionate are formed.[Formula: see text]Depending upon the stoichiometry and pH, two isomers of the selenopentathionate ion, O- and S-bonded, are formed. Insufficiently acid solutions cause decomposition to selenium and tetrathionate ion.[Formula: see text]Fresh solutions prepared from crystalline sodium selenopentathionate and water undergo slow decompositon. NMR and Raman spectra show the presence of both the O-bonded and S-bonded linkage isomers. The O-bonded isomer facilitates the formation of tetrathionate. Addition of thiosulfate to selenotrithionate solution or sulfite to selenopentathionate solution yields trithionate with no indication of dithionate or tetrathionate formation. This suggests that simple S—S bond formation at selenium does not occur but that there may be direct attack of the incoming ligand on the attached ligand. Key words: selenite, thiosulfate, selenopentathionate, Se-77 NMR, Raman spectroscopy, linkage isomerism.

The 1H, 13C and 19F NMR spectra of photochromic p-substituted 2,4,4,6-tetraphenyl-1,4-dihydropyridines IIa-IIg, 1-methyl-2,4,4,6-tetraphenyl-1,4-dihydropyridines IIIa-IIIg, 2,4,4,6-tetraphenyl-4H-pyrans IVa-IVh, and 2,4,4,6-tetraphenyl-4H-thiopyran V were inspected; it was found that compounds IIa-IIg occur in a dynamic equilibrium with their dihydro tautomer VIa-VIg. Also deuteriodeprotonation of IIa and IIIa and their reaction with trifluoroacetic acid were investigated by NMR spectroscopy.

On treatment of the [(1,2-C2B9H11)2Co]- ion with naphthalene in presence of AlCl3 a remarkably bridged [8,8'-μ-(CH2-C9H6)-(1,2-C2B9H10)2-3-Co]- ion is obtained as a single isolated compound. The triatomic -CH2-C9H6- bridge is derived from the rearranged naphthalene nucleus. The mechanism of this reaction is obscure but it does resemble the "Electrophile-Induced Nucleophilic Substitution" reported earlier. The structure of the compound was established by multinuclear NMR spectroscopy and by single crystal X-ray diffraction.

The 15N, 13C, and 1H NMR spectra were measured for azo and hydrazo compounds derived from 1,3,3-trimethyl-2-methylidene-2,3-dihydroindole (Fischer base), which is a passive component with a terminal methylidene group. Products prepared by coupling in hydrochloric acid exist in the corresponding hydrazone form as the E-isomers. Neutralization gives a mixture of two isomeric azo compounds which differ in the arrangement at the C(2)=C(10) double bond. This mixture was alkylated with methyl iodide to obtain the =N-N(CH3)- hydrazone derivatives. The geometric isomers were resolved based on the NOESY approach and the stereospecific behaviour of the 2J(15N,13C) coupling constants was studied for the 15N-labelled compounds.

Infrared spectroscopy and multinuclear (13C, 17O, and 119Sn NMR spectroscopy have been used to study the structure of bis(1-butyl)tin(IV) carboxylates of dicarboxylic acids (1-C4H9)2. Sn(X(COO)2), where X = (CH2)n (n = 0-8), CH=CH (cis and trans) and C6H4 (ortho and para).The crystalline compounds are formed by linear or cyclic oligomers or polymers whose basic building units represent a grouping composed of the central tin atom substituted by two 1-butyl groups and coordinated with both oxygen atoms of two anisobidentate carboxylic groups derived from different molecules of a dicarboxylic acid. The environment of the tin atom has a shape of a trapezoidal bipyramid. When dissolvet in non-coordinating solvents, the compounds retain the oligomeric character with unchanged structure of environment of the central tin atom. In the media of coordinating solvents the bis(1-butyl)tin(IV) carboxylates of dicarboxylic acids form complexes whose central hexacoordinated tin atom binds two molecules of the solvent trough their donor atoms. Carboxylic groups form monodenate linkages in these complexes.

We investigated the nitridation of reduced BaTiO3, BaTiO2.60H0.08, corresponding to an oxyhydride with a large concentration of O defects (>10%). The material is readily nitrided under flowing N2 gas at temperatures between 400 and 450 °C to yield oxynitrides BaTiO2.6Nx (x = 0.2−0.22) with a slightly tetragonally distorted perovskite structure, a ≈ 4.01 and c ≈ 4.02 Å, and Ti partially remaining in the oxidation state III. The tetragonal structure was confirmed from Raman spectroscopy. 14N MAS NMR spectroscopy shows a single resonance at 270 ppm, which is typical for perovskite transition metal oxynitrides. However, largely different signal intensity for materials with very similar N content suggests N/O/vacancy ordering when prolonging nitridation times to hours. Diffuse reflectance UV-VIS spectroscopy shows a reduction of the intrinsic band gap to 2.4–2.45 eV compared to BaTiO3 (~3.2 eV). Mott-Schottky measurements confirm n-type conductivity and reveal a slight negative shift of the conduction band edge from –0.59 V (BaTiO3) to ~–0.65 eV.
