Raman electron paramagnetic

Another important process in which catalyst deactivation by coke deposits plays an important role is propane dehydrogenation, which can be performed with a variety of materials, including metal and metal oxide catalysts. Different in situ and operando spectroscopies have been applied to these catalysts, including UV-vis, Raman, electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), and X-ray absorption spectroscopies [4, 115, 140],... 

Resonance Raman and antisymmetric scattering are involved in a novel technique involving spin-flip Raman transitions in paramagnetic molecules that can function as Raman electron paramagnetic resonance. Figure 3.2a shows a conventional vibrational Stokes resonance Raman process, while 3.2b and 3.2c show the polarization characteristics of the two distinct spin-flip Raman processes for scattering at 90°... 

Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) yields the location of unpaired electron density from hyperfine splitting by metals or atoms with nuclear spin.21 The S = 0 Fe(III)—O 2 state of oxy-Mb or Hb would be indicated by the absence of an EPR signal, although other results such as the IR or resonance Raman absorption of the O2 moiety would be needed for positive confirmation. 

The [Fe =0(TMP+ )]+ complex exhibited a characteristic bright green color and corresponding visible absorbance in its UV-vis spectrum. In its NMR spectrum, the meta-proton doublet of the porphyrin mesityl groups were shifted more than 70 ppm downfield from tetramethylsilane (TMS) because they were in the presence of the cation radical, while the methyl protons shift between 10 and 20ppm downfield. In Mossbauer spectroscopy, the isomer shift, 5 of 0.06 mm/s, and A q value of 1.62mm/s were similar to those for other known Fe(IV) complexes. Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), resonance Raman (RR), and EXAFS spectroscopies provided additional indications of an Fe =0 n-cation radical intermediate. For instance,... 

Before the availability of a high-resolution structure of P. aeruginosa CCP, the properties and environments of the two hemes had been probed using a range of solution spectroscopies. These include electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) (51, 57, 58, 61), resonance Raman (59), circular dichroism (CD) 71, 72), MCD 58, 61, 73, 74). Until the demonstration by Ellfolk and colleagues that it is the mixed-valence form of the... 

For our purpose, it is convenient to classify the measurements according to the format of the data produced. Sensors provide scalar valued quantities of the bulk fluid i. e. density p(t), refractive index n(t), viscosity dielectric constant e(t) and speed of sound Vj(t). Spectrometers provide vector valued quantities of the bulk fluid. Good examples include absorption spectra A t) associated with (1) far-, mid- and near-infrared FIR, MIR, NIR, (2) ultraviolet and visible UV-VIS, (3) nuclear magnetic resonance NMR, (4) electron paramagnetic resonance EPR, (5) vibrational circular dichroism VCD and (6) electronic circular dichroism ECD. Vector valued quantities are also obtained from fluorescence I t) and the Raman effect /(t). Some spectrometers produce matrix valued quantities M(t) of the bulk fluid. Here 2D-NMR spectra, 2D-EPR and 2D-flourescence spectra are noteworthy. A schematic representation of a very general experimental configuration is shown in Figure 4.1 where r is the recycle time for the system.

The discussion of activity from X-ray data in conjunction with kinetic data is also difficult because, apart from considerations of dynamics, these techniques do not provide the essential knowledge about the energy states of given atoms or groups. It is necessary to inspect the electronic structure of at least certain regions of the protein. Methods exist for this inspection, and these include electron paramagnetic resonance, ultraviolet, circular dichroism, Raman and Mossbauer spectroscopies. The full understanding of activity can only come when the information derived from all available methods is assimilated and rationalized.

Valuable spectroscopic studies on the dithiolene chelated to Mo in various enzymes have been enhanced by the knowledge of the structure from X-ray diffraction. Plagued by interference of prosthetic groups—heme, flavin, iron-sulfur clusters—the majority of information has been gleaned from the DMSO reductase system. The spectroscopic tools of X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS), electronic ultraviolet/visible (UV/vis) spectroscopy, resonance Raman (RR), MCD, and various electron paramagnetic resonance techniques [EPR, electron spin echo envelope modulation (ESEEM), and electron nuclear double resonance (ENDOR)] have been particularly effective probes of the metal site. Of these, only MCD and RR have detected features attributable to the dithiolene unit. Selected results from a variety of studies are presented below, chosen because their focus is the Mo-dithiolene unit and organized according to method rather than to enzyme or type of active site. 

Volume 50 of Advances in Catalysis, published in 2006, was the hrst of a set of three focused on physical characterization of solid catalysts in the functioning state. This volume is the second in the set. The hrst four chapters are devoted to vibrational spectroscopies, including Fourier transform infrared (Lamberti et al.), ultraviolet Raman (Stair), inelastic neutron scattering (Albers and Parker), and infrared-visible sum frequency generation and polarization-modulation infrared rehection absorption (Rupprechter). Additional chapters deal with electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) (Bruckner) and Mossbauer spectroscopies (Millet) and oscillating microbalance catalytic reactors (Chen et al.). 

Depending on the wavelength of radiation used, irradiation of Co2(CO)g produces either CO dissociation (at 250 nm) or cleavage into Co(CO)4 radicals (at 360 nm). The radical Co(CO)4 (2) itself has been detected by its Raman, infrared, UV-vis, and EPR see Electron Paramagnetic Resonance) spectra. It can be found by EPR when (1) is heated and sublimed on a 77 K cold finger in the EPR cavity, or it can be generated in a matrix at low temperature either by photolysis of (1) or by the metal vapor technique see Metal Vapor Synthesis of Transition Metal Compounds). 

A wide range of techniques has been used on both fresh and used catalysts to characterize the nature of the oxide surface, for example X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) [10-12], UV-Visible diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (UV-Vis DRS) [11, 12], Raman spectroscopy [10, 11, 14—17], X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) [11, 12, 18], electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) [12, 19], infrared spectroscopy [10, 20] and temperature programmed reduction (TPR) [16, 21]. Given the number of...
