Spectroscopy divalent

The S-S bond between two divalent sulfur atoms plays an important role as the main stabilizer of the tertiary structure of many proteins. The simplest chemically stable compounds of this class are HSSH and CH3SSCH3. The structures of these two disulfanes have been established by microwave spectroscopy and electron diffraction experiments. 

Many divalent and trivalent oxides form cements with PAA (Crisp, Prosser Wilson, 1976 Hodd Reader, 1976 Hornsby, 1977). Cement formation was observed using infrared spectroscopy and physical and chemical tests. Of these cements that of ZnO (Smith, 1968) was the first and remains by far the most important it is given detailed treatment in Section 5.7. 

Et4N]2[Fe2lr2(CO)i2] cluster precursor, which exhibit a high activity in the synthesis of methanol from CO and H2, were studied by Ir and Fe Mossbauer spectroscopy. The study extends from the precursors via the fresh to the aged catalysts. The presence of iridium in the metallic state as well as the presence of trivalent, divalent and alloyed iron is detected. Representative Ir and Fe Mossbauer spectra are shown in Fig. 7.69. Information about the adsorption on the surface of MgO... 

The synthesis of doubly bonded tin compounds by the coupling of stannylenes, however useful, is limited by the need for a stable stannylene and often a second divalent species (for example, a carbene or isonitrile). The simplest example of this reaction is the formation of tetrakis[bis(tri-methylsilyl)methyl]distannene from two molecules of the corresponding stannylene,83 with which it is in equilibrium in solution as evidenced by NMR spectroscopy.91... 

Glucose isomerase catalyzes the conversion of D-glucose to D-fructose and has also been used extensively on an industrial scale.1184 Some, but not all, enzymes of this family require Co specifically, while others can function with other divalent ions. Environmental and health issues limit the concentrations of Co in culture media during D-fructose production and other metal ions are being sought as substitutes. Although the active site structure remains unknown, EXAFS, optical and EPR spectroscopy has suggest a low-spin divalent Co ion, bound by N and O-donors only (no S-donors). 

The orange-red, divalent Ir complex [Ir(C5H4PPh2)2CO]22+ was synthesized following the chemical oxidation of [Ir(C5H4PPh2)CO]2 by either [Fe(cp)2]BF4 or AgPF6.492 The Ir11 complex was characterized by IR (j/co) and NMR spectroscopy. 

We have recently prepared some new and very thermolabile CO- and N2 comPlexes derived from titanocene [1] or decamethyltitanocene [2], and have characterized them by their vibrational spectra. As well as "classical" matrix spectroscopy, we have used spectroscopy in liquid xenon (LXe). The application of chemistry and methodology indicates the decamethylsilicocene structure, which represents the first example of a stable jt-complex of divalent silicon [3]. Reaction with CO or N2 leads to the two title complexes [4] ...

The interactions of (212) and related species with monovalent and divalent metal cations have been studied by nmr spectroscopy (Lehn Simon, 1977). The study indicated that sequential formation of mono-and di-cation complexes occurs (see [4.7]). These studies, and especially a 13C nmr study of the 1 1 complex of (212) with barium nitrate, suggest that the 1 1 species are unsymmetrical with the metal ion being contained in one of the azacrown cavities. Nevertheless, the nmr data also indicate that these 1 1 species undergo internal cation exchange between the respective azacrown sites. This intramolecular dynamic behaviour serves... 

A comparison of porphyrin and pincer activity rationalized through reactivity index Porphyrin and pincer complexes are both important categories of compounds in biological and catalytic systems. Structure, spectroscopy, and reactivity properties of porphyrin pincers are systematically studied for selection of divalent metal ions. It is reported that the porphyrin pincers are structurally and spectroscopically different from their precursors and are more reactive in electrophilic and nucleophilic reactions. These results are implicative in chemical modification of hemoproteins and understanding the chemical reactivity in heme-containing and other biologically important complexes and cofactors [45]. 

In situ emission Mossbauer spectroscopy provides valuable information on the chemical structure of dilute metal ions at the metal oxide/aqueous solution interface The principles of the method are described with some experimental results on divalent Co-57 and pentavalent Sb-119 adsorbed on hematite. 

We now extend the work to in situ measurements on metal ions adsorbed at the metal oxide/aqueous solution interface. In this report, our previous results are combined with new measurements to yield specific information on the chemical structure of adsorbed species at the solid/aqueous solution interface. Here, we describe the principles of emission Mossbauer spectroscopy, experimental techniques, and some results on divalent Co-57 and pentavalent Sb-119 ions adsorbed at the interface between hematite (a-Fe203) and aqueous solutions. 

Chalcogenation of a divalent germanium compound with styrene sulfide has been examined as an alternative route to the first free germanethione Tbt(Tip)Ge = S 165142 (Scheme 32) and later on allowed the synthesis of new base-stabilized germanethiones 187 and 188156 [Eq. (37)]. Phenyl isocyanate also may serve as a sulfur source leading to 165, which was evidenced by electronic spectroscopy and underwent a subsequent [2 + 2] cycloaddition with phenyl isocyanate157 (Scheme 36). 

The presence of a fragment corresponding to the loss of selenium in mass spectroscopy under electronic impact of germaneselone 179 points to a thermal instability of the Ge = Se bond.132 Heating a solution of 179 in benzene at 80°C in the presence of sulfur leads to a chalcogen exchange, likely via the divalent species (ArO)2Ge 141 [Eq. (38)]. 

A different pattern of dissolution was seen with a Zn-Sn alloy containing 26% zinc. In this case the stable dissolution situation established after ca. 90 min showed a ratio of EC to CMT measurements of 1 4. As seen in Fig. 3, this remained fairly constant, though the corrosion potential increased by more than 50 mV. Only selective zinc dissolution took place, and analysis by atomic absorption spectroscopy of the amount of dissolved zinc agreed within 10% with the value according to the titration. This pattern is still difficult to understand. The ratio of ca. 1 4 between EC and CMT measurements could be interpreted in terms of formation of the low-valent zinc species ZnJ, which seems unlikely, or in terms of dissolution of divalent zinc ions accompanied by loss of chunks consisting of precisely three zinc atoms, each time a zinc ion is dissolved. The latter alternative seems to require a more discrete mechanism of dissolution than... 

Risen et al. investigated cation—anion interactions using far IR spectroscopy (50—300 cm ) to study Nafion sulfonate membranes that were neutralized by cations in the series Na+, K+, Rb+, and Cs+ and the series Mg +, Ca +, Sr +, and Ba +, as well as the acid form." The spectra in this region for hydrated samples show a broad but well-defined band below 300 cm that is not present for the acid form. For both the monovalent alkali and divalent alkaline earth series, the band monotonically shifts to lower frequencies, f, such that foe where Mis the...

X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) has been used to obtain stoichiometric information about MC/LB films and also to identify possible oxidation states of, primarily, the inorganic components of the films. These include CdS (37,64,79), CdSe (75), CuS.v (9,19,39), HgS (22,45,64), PbS (39,68,70), and MS, (M = Pt, n — 2 or 4 M = Pd, n = 2) (10,74). Sulfunmetal and carbommetal ratios comprise the main stoichiometric information obtained from XPS data. While there are claims to the contrary (39), there is little support from XPS data for a stoichiometric reaction between divalent metal ions in LB films with H2X as depicted in Eq. (4) (i.e., chalcogenide metal = 1). In most instances the chalcogenide meta ratio is found...
